CH CLEAN UP COUETT PARK PLACE

Take Saturday Off, Roll Up Their Sleeves, and Whole Neighborhood Fitches In.

Even think of clean-up day and a social affair in one breath? The Collett Woods Civic league demonstrated Saturday how it can be done.

Saturday was clean-up day in the Collett woods locality. Most of the men who reside therein are professional men but they threw dignity to the winds, rolled up their sleeves and "went to it." While they were busily engaged in the cleaning up process the wives were preparing a picnic supper which was later served in the Thomas Black garage at one long table. About 35 parents and children were seated at the table. After the meal the "party" enjoyed two latge bonfires, made possible from the accumulation of wood in the clean-up.

Collett woods Include that section between Seventh and Ninth streets and from Indiana avenue to Smith's garden on North Eighth street. The Civic club was organized last September and since then it has enjoyed efforts In both a civic and a social way. Clean-up day has been established as an annual affair now.

Prof. McCormick is president of the men's section of the club, while Mrs. O. M. Brown heads the woman's division.

Lew Walker, chairman of the building committee reported that extensive changes are being made in the ?lut house, additional facilities including kitchen and dining room service, hot and cold baths, reception rooms and parlors. Chairman J. C. Kolsem, of the grounds committee, -reported cutting out and resetting of trees, filling and levelling the ground, building bunkers, sand pits and other link features. The grounds also have been rolled. A concrete tennis couyt, the only one in this section of the country, is being bu|lt.

J. M. Hedges, chairman of the house committee, promised unusually good things to eat this summer, a competent cateress having been engaged. Harry Bronson, chairman of the entertainment committee, promised to give a good account of himself, and Chairman Charlie Hall, of the sports and pastimes committee, said there would be tournaments ana other features, sufficient to maintain the keenest rivalry.

Efforts are being made to have the grounds and clubhouse ready for openin? by the first of the month. This afternoon a flag raising will be held, a new 65-foot steel pole having been erected. Captain Ora Davis and Henry Moore will be the speakers for the occasion.

GRAND JURY INDICTS TEN.

Also Files Final Report Covering County Institutions. Ten indictments were returned by the grand jury Saturday afternoon, covering a large number of cases'. One of these was against Vick Shaw, charging her with grand larceny.' It is alleged she stole $204 in money from Edward Clem. Another indictment is against George Chesterfield, charging him with keeping a place for the unlawful sale of intoxicating liquor. The others indicted have not been arrested and their names were withheld.

The grand Jury also made its final report to Judge Pulliam of the Circuit Court stating that it had investigated all criminal cases brought before it. It also reported that it had found the county poor farm, the Glenn orphan's home and the Vipo county jail in'-V'od condition. The Glenn home was reported somewhat crowded there beinr 62 boys and 47 girls there. The grand jury recommends that additions be made to the boys' cottage and also to the girls' cottage, so that each child can have a separate bed. A dressing room for the children is also recommended.

The grand Jury expressed the opinion that when the state goes dry it will materially decrease the number of children at the home and that in that case the home as it now stands will be large enough.

The purchase of five good cows, to provide fresh milk for the children is also recommended.

At the Vigo county jail the installation of a wash basin was recommended for the room where prisoners are first taken and washed.
