HE DIDN’T EVEN NOTICE! DON’T LET it worry you if he didn’t notice your new gown ... take it as a compliment, even though a back-handed one. He would soon enough notice if yojur dress were the least bit dowdy, or if any of his home surroundings were not in the best of taste. The fact is, he has been educated — and largely through your efforts —to expect his wife to be stylishly dressed, to take it for granted that his home is filled with all the latest comforts and conveniences. You have built up this expectation of high standards ... and you have done a good job of it! You, and hundreds of thousands like you, know the importance of keeping in touch with the world. You know what is going on . . . current events, progress, the latest trends of fashion in clothing, furnishings and foods. And in this maintaining of an up-to-date outlook, whether you realize it or not, the advertisements in this newspaper are supplying you with a wealth of information, telling you daily of all the latest and best offerings of the most progressive manufacturers. Advertisements point the way to fullest value for every dollar spent. They tell you about merchandise that has stood the test of public use and approval. . . .

Marion Taxpayers Ask Investigation Marion, Ind., Feb. 26.—(U.R)—TaxI payers of Marion, in a resolution adopted at their mass meeting last night, demanded an investigation of the city’s finances by the state board of accounts. Several other resolutions, critical of city officials and theif acts, included condemnation of the Association of Commerce for purported dictatorial tactics; censure of Mayor Jack Edwards and Julian Lett, city attorney, for prolonged absences from the city; opposition to the beautification program along the Mlssissenewa river, and opposition to the proposed ten per cent cut in city employees’ salaries and other budget items. o Signs Bill RequiringFiremen Insurance Indianapolis, Feb. 26 — (UP) — Governor Harry G. Leslie signed the Senate measure authorizing and re-) quiring towns in which volunteer fire companies exist, to insure members against injury or death while on duty. The bill provides for maximum compensation of SI,OOO payable at the rate of sls a week for disability, and $2,000 in event of death.

SENATE HEARS ARGUMENTS FOR BUSINESS TAX PAGE ONE) committees to smooth out differences between the senate and the house of representatives on the personal income tax bill, aroused the belief today that the measure would never become law. It is regarded as the chief revenue raising measure thus far propounded. It was sent from the house to the senate, where exemptions were reduced considerably to include the small wage earner. It then was sent back, to the house where the amendments were not accepted. Twice in the last two days, minority members in the house have

, asked Speaker Walter Myers I; whether he had appointed a conInference committee. Each time I; Myers answered in the negative. | The senate cannot move to act up ' on the bill until the house has 11 initiated the action. In The House | Indianapolis.

A Home Rule Bill Indianapolis, Feb. 26. — <U.R> — Hottie rule in the condemnation of school buildings is effected through unanimous passage by the Indiana house of representatives of the Hartzell senate bill removing con'demnation jurisdiction from the state board of health. The Hartzell bill would place condemnation authority in the honds» of the boards of county commissioners. Proponents of the measure charged that injudicious exercise of authority by the state health board has worked a hardship on impoverished counties by condemning buildings on slight provocation, with resultant local tax rate increases. The bill now goes to the governor. o Philadelphia Club Raided. Liquor Seized Philadelphia.

JOKE GOT HIM CABINET JOB Paris, Feb. 24 —(UP) — There’:: one minister in the cabinet of Senator Pierre Laval who got his portfolio through a journalistic joke. On the rainy, blustery night of January 26. when M Laval was desperately trying to round out a cabinet following the refusal of the Kadi: als to cooperate, a newspaper correspondent, sitting outside of Laval's door, thought of a good joke He went to the telephone and called up M. Emile Morinatul, deputy from Constantine, Algeria. Assuming the voice of a ministerial secretary, he informed M. Mornaud of that Senator Lavel wanted to see him "immediately.” M. Mornaud came dashing to Laval's office, entering majestically just at the moment M. Laval thought he had definitely formed his cabinet. "You here? By what chance?” asked M. Laval in a friendly tone. "But you telephoned for me to come at once.” M. Morinaud answered with a sinking heart, for ministerial positions carry greater salaries. Andre Tardieu, who was present, guessed that a joke had been played. He asked Laval to find Morinaud a place in the cabinet. So Laval appoined the Algerian deputy Minister of Physical Education.

Estimating that the measure would cost approximately an additional billion dollars, Mr. Hoover said: “There not being a penny in the treasury to meet such a demand, the government must borrow this sum through the sale of the reserve fund securities together with further issues or we must nee:! impose further taxation. “The breach of fundamental principle in this proposal is the requirement of the federal government to provide an enormous sum of money to a vast majority who FLORENCE HOLTHOL’SE Stenographic Work Typewriting Judge J.

The theory of stimulation is based upon the anticipation of wasteful expenditure. It can be of no assistance in the return of real prcgperity. If this argument of proponents is correct we should make government . loans to the whole people.” ’ -""" ■■ 1 ’ O" 1 - 11 " Schumann-Heink Wants Old Lager Beer Back Hartford.
