Though designed for midseason wear the frocks pictured above are developed upon lines that will be fashionable throughout the early fall. The first model in silk and wool challts is charmingly trimmed with satin, used in a deep band upon the skirt and for the turn-down collar. The vest is of georgette and a string belt of satin holds In the fulness at the waist. Satin striped taffeta is Weal for the second model.

Wraps for autumn wear show charming originality. This model In dark blue poiret twill is in drapped effect, the long revers and collar being of seif-material. If desired, one may add an overlay collar of silk. Material may be saved in developing the design by cutting it on a lengthwise thread of material.
TO RESTORE FINISH.
Most brides soon bewail the fact that furniture has lost its “new** look. The sheen of grandma’s “highboy” is soon lost beneath a coating of city dust The library table soon shows signs of last night’s card game. A simple little formula that has been known to help Is the following: To a half-bucket of water, add a tablespoonful of olive oil. Using a soft cloth, wipe off the furniture. Follow this with a brick polishing with a dry cloth. You will be surprised to see the brilliant finish that is revealed. Mahogany, particularly, is benefited by this treatment.

Tucks and skeleton blouses are attractive features of autumn modes for youthful figures. This dress of dark blue chains has a tucked skirt and a blouse that is deeply cut away to show a guirape of blue silk mull. White Georgette forms the collar and Hare cuffs. The blouse fastens at one side with buttons of selt-material.

Mr. Worley reported that on August 23 he made an inveetigatlon of the cold storage plant operated by the Crescent king Company and found the followundated quantitles of meat there; thousand pounds of beef, 125 caries of lambs. 8 carcasses of goats, carcasses of pigs and 2 ribs of beef.

Penalties for Violation.
The penalties for the violation of the
law are given as follows:
“That any person, firm or corporation, violating any of the provisions of this act shall upon conviction be punished for the first offense by a fine of not less than S25 nor more than 550; for the second offense by & fine of not less than ISO nor more than $100; and for the third and subsequent offenses by a fine of 5200 and Imprisonment in the county jail for not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, and each day on which the
cold storage or refrigerating warehouse Is found to be In violation thereof, or
the employer, employe, or other per-

son is found to be violating any of the provisions of this act, shall constitute
a distinct and separate offense.”
Employes With Detective. Under this section, the prosecutor holds that the companies and individuals under Indictment may be held responsible for more than one day in which the alleged illegal storage took place, thus charging some of them with two or more separate committals of each of the offenses alleged. That Is the reason there are so many Indictments against the same firm or individ-
ual in some instances.
Law Complied With, Gano Says John Gano, superintendent of the Indiana Refrigerating Company, said that in so far as he knew the company has complied in every respect with the law for stamping foodstuffs in storage. All
freezer’ r stuff, he said, had been
stamped with the lot number and the date. Freexer stuff, he said, is meat, butter, eggs and similar perishable food that is placed in refrigeration. Fruits,
he said, he did not believe it n
to stamp.
necessary
Mr. Gano said that representatives of the prosecutor’s office visited the plant
and asked about cheese and apples. Neither of these articles, Mr. Gano said, according to his understanding of the
law, need be stamped.
The stamp, Mr. Gano said, is made up every morning with the lot number and date, and receipts are stamped, with the exception of articles coming in burlap or other forms of package which
could not be stamped.
In regard to the proof which the state
might desire
to introduce in these cases,
it is understood that in his -visit to the storage plants and elsewhere, Mr. Worley had officers or employes of the firms with him both in the cold storage room Inspections and the examinations of live
record books.
Absurd, Meier Says.
Lewis Meier, president of the Meier Packing Company, characterised as absurd the indictment charging the firm with having on hand 50,000 pounds of lard not properly stamped under the
state law. "We are manufacturers.” Mr. Meier said, “and we do not do a storage business. We sell the lard as itckly as we can. The 50,000 pounds of
lard is only a normal accumulation of

weeks. W

W. C. Gardner, general manager of the Crescent Packing Company, declared that under the state law the firm is not required to stamp meat. He admitted that oopatdsrabto meat not
Knew of Inspection Trip. “I knew that the Inspectors had been through our plant, said Verner C. Schaeffer, superintendent of the Holt Ice and Cold Storage Company, when he was told his company was named in the indictments. Mr. Schaeffer denied he knew when the inspectors had found the evidence which led to the indictments. Leroy Keach. when asked to make a statement regarding the indictment by the grand Jury for selling cold storage products without a stamp, protested that he knew nothing of the affair. He declined to make a statement other than that he had no knowledge that he had overstepped the law in any way. Knows of No Such Law. “If there is any law against selling cold storage products without stamping them, I would like to know it.” was the statement of Frank L. Hartsock. when notified of the indictment. Mr. Hartsock further said that the only things that he had knowledge of being in his cold storage was a few apples and dried onions, and if rulings had been made regarding his selling these without a stamp he had never been no-
tified.
Ta&en Out as Needed. A. D. Hit*, of George Hit* A Co., said his concern had put apples in cold storage when they arrived to the hot weather to prevent them from rotting and had taken them out as they were needed. “If we had left them on the tracks we would have mattered, a less, and would have been criticised besides,” he
said.
“We do not have cold storage of our own. I do not know what the law provides, but I was of the impression that it was the duty of the owner of the cold storage plant to do the stamping. Certainly we had no intention of violat-
ing any law."
Hartsock’* Statement.
The bookkeeper for Frank L. Hartsook said that they had received a carload of apples and dried onions, some of which were still in the house. These stuffs had not been stamped because Mr. Hartsook had been advised by cold storage houses that it was not necesto stamp any foodstuffs that were
through the plant and supplied with all InifriFm n Flrvii a ila Wl a T4f/i
suggestions were offered us regarding the plant, but we felt rather complimented after hearing their report after the inspections. My company has been trying to comply with the law to every way, and at no time has It been pointed out as to where we were not conform; ig to the rule and regulations regarding our plant, but what it was given our Immediate attention.” He said until the case had been more fully explained to him he was in the dark as to what it could mean. He laid strong emphasis on the fact that after the inspection of the plant he had been told that there was nothing whatever to complain of. Paul A. Bessire. of Bessire A Co., said he had no statement to make in regard tp the indictment of the grand Jury as he had not been officially informed of any such action. “We are not running a cold storage plant for the public but only for our own convenience here in the house. I do not think we have violated any state law in regard to stamping goods,” he said.
Thought Law Complied With. Harry O. McConkey, superintendent of the local branch of Armour A Co., said It was not clear to him Just what violation is involved in the indictment, rfe said he thought the officials of the local branch had complied with the cold stor-
laws.
a *E. ‘ F. Shideier, of E. F. Shideier A
Co., commission merchants, on learning of the indictment, said he thought it was the duty of the storage officials to stamp the goods. He said he never knew> it was one of his duties to stamp the goods that he receives from storage.

Dr King Says Enforcement of Storage Laws Has Been Exclusively in Hands of H. E. Barnard. The grand jury report occasioned some stir at the statehouse headquarters of the state board of health when it became known that the cold storage law. the enforcement of which is expressly required of the state board, has been violated, according to the idea of the grand jurors. Dr. Hugh A. Cowing, of Muncie, is president of the state board of health, but his office does not require that he be at the state office only occasionally. Dr. John N. Hurty, of Indianapolis, is secretary of the board and a full-time official of the body, but he has been ill at his home several weeks. Dr. William F. King, is assistant secretary of the board. He said the next regular meeting of the state board is not until October 1 but that it is likely the state board will meet soon In special session, to ascertain who is at fault for the alleged laxity of enforcement of the law so that such violations as are alleged in the grand jury report could possibly occur. Call Issued by Barnard. Dr. King said the state board h»/i placed Harry’ E. Barnard as head of the food and drug division, and while it has entire supervision over Barnard’s office generally, it left much of the affairs of that office entirely to the hands of
Mr. Barnard.
On July 15 Mr. Barnard issued a call to- all cold storage warehouses in the state for a statment of their condition^ and for such other information as the warehouse operators are required to submit to his department. Several weeks after the principal, If not all, of the reports were in the office, and Mr. Barnard said he had found no violation of
the storage law, and regarded the cold storage situation in good shape as far
as the law was concerned. Barnard Seems Surprised.
Mr. Barnard expressed great surprise that the Marion county grand Jury’ should have found violations of the state cold storage law. He asserted that “in so far as I know there is not a single violation of the law in the state.” He said he did not have time to discuss the grand jury report at length because he was getting ready to leave for Mun-
cie where be h
sale grocer who is reported to have been violating the federal food anti-profiteer-
ing rules.
He said, however, that In two instances recently he found where the warehouse men had carried foods beyond the legal time but, he said, on obtaining a report from his inspectors that the foods were in good condition he granted an extension of time as, he said, he has authority to do. Mr. Barnard insisted that the warehouse men surely were stamping their storages as required by law. He said the warehouse men know of the law and should have obeyed it without reference to whether or not he has been
properly requiring its enforcement. He Id the law does not require that cold
storage products, except eggs, be stamped so that a customer of a retail merchant may know when cold storage products are being bought. He said he

nrban car and he said he believed that he would be able to show that his division is not at fault for alleged failure to enforce the cold storage law, regarded by many as a splendid statute. Mr. Barnard’s work, however, is not confined alone to being head of the food and drug division of the state board of health. He is also state chemist, head of the state weights and measures division of the health board, head of the state water laboratories, is federal food administrator for In-
