I
many which were advocated in tjie
pchoel survey conducted by the State
Department of Education, Jeseph W.
Catharine, vice president of the heard,
, told the committee that, although edu edu
ratiennl advancement wen desirable, the
treat building program should bu the
first consideration In the apportionment
pf funds.
"We want te de everything in our
power te ndept the recommendations
for educational advancement ns made
bv Dr. Uroeme," said Mr. Catharine,
"but with a large number of children en
part time, it is mere important thtit we
build new school houses.
"The program when first suggested
railed for u tetul expenditure of $i!Tj7,
000. Kurti n sum out of next year's
revenue et the present tax rate 'is mi
absolute impossibility. It waa then
carefully rut until ut the time of the

this jail. I've been here since June 12. !
There were no tears in her ejes, but
her voice trembled.
"I crltd nil morning." she said, "ami
I am worn out new." Uut there is
no fear of the outcome in .Mrs.
llrunen's mind. '
There were no traces of the tireud.
arrogant attitude she is sold te have
exhibit ej when she was first put in
jail. Uut there Is n llrmness. net the
rocklike Indifference exhibited by her
brother, hut llrmness, unfaltering nnd
sure in her every word, her every ln ln
lleclien, her every gesture.
She sat in the dim light which came
through the narrow window, her wuved
blend hair, with Its short ends lurked
up, making a gleam against the somber
cell. Her eyes looked dark gray, almost
black, and her skin pale nnd clear,
with the dimples in her checks mining
nnd going as she talked.
There was a simple dignity, n mother
linens, ns she spoke with tender con
dem of her brother; the obvious com
men prcttincss et tne "typical circus
woman" attributed te her softened and
toned down by her distress nnd Im
prisonment. As she talked she sat In n stinlcht
chair, embroidering, sertlnc the colored
silks and changing the embroidery hoops
as sue eegnn it new lent en tue center
piece she wns making.
"Fer charity," she said simply.
"I've crocheted a let nnd lmve done lets
of embroidery. I've done lets of It
ever since I learned hew, when I wns
n little girl. De you like this?" She
seemed nlmest childishly pleased just
us she must have been when she
received some word of pralsewhen her
short little fingers struggled with the
needle anU her small head bent ever her'
work when she was first learning te
makp patterns out of the thread.
Points te Her "Suite"
in the narrow room, opposite her
coarse, gray-blanketed cot. were a num
ber of shelves, en which were ivory
toilet articles, bottles of hand lotion
and the little boxes nnd bottles usually
en a boudoir dressing tnble uml se in
congruous In u prison cell.
A small closet bus been partitioned
off from the rest of the room, and there
is Mrs. llruneii s "wardrobe" her
suit, a black silk dress, her coat and a
number of house dresses which alie
wears in prison.
"I trimmed" this lint myself," she
said, bringing out n black velvet from
which waved three black plumes.
There was always the polite desire
te mnke her visitor comfortable, with
something of the air of n hostess us
Hhe conducted her through what she
lnughlngly cnlled her "rooms, kitchen-
cttc nnd both.
"This Is where I de my housekcop heusekcop housekcep
jBI call it my housekeeping," she
added apologetically.
"Harry and I have our meals sent in
from the'Y. W. C. A., but en Sunday
I can order what I want nnd cook his
dinner for him. Last Sunday we had
chicken and asparagus en toast and let
tuce." Her face lit up with the first
bhade of expression It had shown as
sdie though of the pleasure she had given
her brother.
"Harry enjoys It ae," she said. "I
get te see him every day in the yard.
Fer the flrnt two months I wits there
they wouldn't let me out of my cell, but
new 1 cun go down and I get te see
him when he Is there. I enn straighten
ibis tie, nnd kiss him nnd tell him I be
lieve in him. I guess everv sister loves
her brother, nnd feels that way nbeut
It. But it's net iust because he ia my
brother." she cried vehemently. "I
kiiew he Is Innocent. I wash all bin
shirts and linen," she said. "I love te
de things for him."
"Thnnksgivlng we had a turkey din
ner." she ndded.
There were no ether women In the
iall but Mrs. llrunen's sister-in-lnvv,
Bessle Mehr, and Mrs. Olnrencn Hor Her
ner, wife of the turnkey and deputv
sheriff, who were talking in the cell
beyond.
"Mrs. Herner has been se geed te
me," said Mrs. Brunen. "She brings
me fresh eggs and thinks I can cook
for my brother."
Sits Alene in Her Cell
Fer n long time Mrs. Brunen has
been virtually alone. When the meili
beis of the circus, fermerlv owned by
her husband, were in Mount Helly
they enme te see her and her step
daughter Hazel visited her every week.
But new Hazel comes no mere. As
the days puss before the trial Mrs.
Ilrunrn sits nlene, with net even her
daughter te comfort her.
"The cars ulwa.vs did make her
sick," she says In defense of the girl.
"I don't let her knew that I see she
has changed toward me. but I can
see that she has. I idolire Hazel I

Judge Hnrtwcll replied :
"I have net seen it jury selected in
less time. I think, in spite of my oc
casional irritation ever what seemed
dilnterlness, that It has been going
fast."
He announced he would take full re
sponsibility for adjourning until
Wednesday, because he believed it te
be the wisest thing te de. He said the
constitutional election had nothing te
de with his decision.
Judge Hnrtwcll charged the jury with
his usual pleasant informality, though
he left no doubt nbeut his Insistence
that the jurymen keep themselves clear
of outside influence.
"And J want te say te the public,"
he resumed, turning te the audience,
"Hint no visitor in this courtroom is
going te show his sympathies here. If
any man in the audience duiing this
trliil, in uny mnnncgr, by laughing,
snickering or any ether way communi
cates with ii juror te influence his judge
ment, I'll put him lu jail. I'm going
te have perfect order here if I have te
triple the number of bailiffs te de it."

"The window Is carried out in rich
Italian coloring of the early mediaeval

in the glass Itself, which is carefully
seltcted. though various tints nre pro
duced b.v Miperlnpesliig one tint of
glass ever another, and thus the

It lias everything in it from nttlc

On the dining room tnhle is n bowl

PAINT COVERING HID
MASTERPIECEJ00 YEARS
But Beautiful Original Celers Net
Affected In "Marriage of Isaac"
The famous painting of Paul Vero
nese. "The Marriage of Isaac." lest
te the world for mete than n century
because of a coating of ten or twelve
coats of paint is gradually being ic
turned te Its original beauty by Prof.
Pasquale Tni-ina. artist and restorer,
of Ititteiiheuse Square.
Professer Pnrinn nsserts that the
chnrncter of ilie paint shows it te be nt
lenut iftft ,p.im old. While it has cev
ered the beauty of thc llrst pigment it
hns in no si'nse destroyed the original
painting, Professer Far inn says, nnd be
hopes seen te have it restored te some
thing like its former beauty.
Dr. Urnest I.a Place lirst secured it
nt an auction sale In New Orleans, after
the owner had told him in u deuth-bed
stnteinent he suspected if was n work of
Vcreiicc. """ .
"I was nn lined at tirst te send it
back te Docter Ln Place as n worthless
canvas," said Professer Tnrina, "but as
I unceveied layer after la.ver of puint
I found sonic clues tjpienl of Veronese.
The blue of the dre-'S of Hebeccu first
attracted mv nttenUen. It is typical of
Veronese, as aie the purplish-pink flesh
tints. T believe part of that paint must
huvc been put en te disguise it at the
time it was stolen fiem Itnlv. long age."

have rough house as much ns they wish
without nny worry about the furniture.
Thc house lacks one convenience It
hns no telephone. The nrtlt, Miss
Cannen, thinks thnt n telephone is un
sightly, se would rather put the occu
pants te the inconvenience of being
without one than have ene ugly thing
iq thc house, since tin house is meant
te be nn inspiration for tnste In fur
nishing of -homes.
The house Is practical, for n most
complete kitchen is in the background
sink, stove, refrigerator and everything
for the model housewife.
Miss Cannen says nbeut her teys:
"I mnkc American toys built en
American ideals, for American chll- '
dren. Most people have the mistaken
Hen that thc finest toys nre made in
Germany, whereas in reality they come ,
from right here in the United State"."
The Bosten Arts and Crafts Guild
has said of Miss Cannen's work that '
it is thc best craft effort in this gen- '
erntlen. She alms te incorporate in
licr work them edcrn nrtistlc viewpoint
and th most correct idea of proportion i
nnd fitness.
The guests of the exhibition today
were members of various prominent i
