The Right Thing at the Right Time By MARY MARSHALL S. DCFFEE. s J Good Form and Your Wife Few men realize how their wives appreciate the outward signs of chivalry in the manners of their husbands toward them. The fact that the husband’s heart is in the right place doesn’t altogether make up for a lack of good manners. Not only does the wife want to have the husband show outward courtesy to her at home, she especially appreciates having him do so under the observance of others. It is much the same thing as a man’s livi-,*- t n have his wife dress attractively when he and she are away together. It gratifies his pride. To have her husband show outward ci.... .v... iu tier is a tribute to a wife, and moreover it shows he is well-bred. She does not want to have other persons think he is ignorant of the rules of social decorum. Many a man forgets that when he meets his wife he should at once relieve her of any bundles she may be carrying. He does, in truth, look a little odd carrying them, but he looks much odder when walking with his wife and permitting her to carrry them. Many a man forgets to give his wife that little assistance that c urtesy demands when she gets into an automobile ' or street car. He thought of It readily enough when he was courting her and .probably if the woman In question was Lady-So-and-So or the governor’s wife he would not forget it. It_ is not customary for a man either married or bachelor, to invite another ; married man to a formal social affair to j which the wife is not also asked if there are other women present. A married man should not forget that courtesy and good form demand that he ! should always assist his wife into her wraps. Asa matter of fact, at home he may 1 not do this, but if they have been dining j at a restaurant and the waiter is not at hand to assist the wife into her coat the married man who is used to the customs of good society steps quickly to his wife's side and assists her. WHAT READERS ASK. “Is it considered permissible to give i money for a wedding present?” Members of the immediate family may make a money present, but If it were to come from any relative of the husband it would not be courteous to send it to the bride before the wedding. In such a case it would be better to ' wait until after the marriage, when the monqy should be given to the newlyweds jointly.—Copyright, 1920. dues were withheld from their pay under what is known as the “checkoff” system A conspiracy to commit an offense against the United States Is charged In the twelfth count, as follows: “By engaging in discriminatory, unfair and deceptive practices and devices in handling, dealing in, distributing, supplying and in the production of a certain necessary, towlt: bituminous coal, by falsely reporting to mine workers that coal could not be sold: by falsely claiming there was a shortage of coal cars; by reporting to ! each other prices charged for coal, amount of coal mined each day and place of delivery: by increasing and maintaining a price for coal higher than the market price.” ALLEGED CONSPIRACY IN FINAL COUNTS. The other six counts of, the indictment are ail based on a conspiracy to limit production and supply and fix prices. No direct allusion is made in the Indictment to the wage scale conference held in Buffalo, Sept. 25, 1919, but practically all members of both the operators’ and miners’ committees attending the conference are named as defendants. Printed copies of the indictment are now being distributed to attorneys representing the defendants. The coal grand Jury which returned the indictment went Into session in Indianapolis Dec. 17, 1919, and carried on an I Investigation of the coal industry until March 1L The investigation was directed by Ert L. Slack and Dan Simms, special assistant United States district attorneys. All defendants will be arraigned before Judge A. B. Anderson May 4, and the trial will probably be Bet during the November term of court this year.

INDIANA tiAILY TIMES, MONDAY, MARCH 29,1920.

METHODISTS AID WAR VETERANS College and Preparatory Scholarships Set Aside. War scholarships for the purpose of assisting world war veterans In colleges and preparatory schools will be awarded by the board of home missions and extension of the Methodist Episcopal church, according to announcement made by Dr. C. E. Bacon, superintendent of the Indianapolis district of the church. The only requirement necessary to obtain such scholarships, which will range from SIBO per annum for young men lu preparatory schools to $250 for those In college, will be an honorable discharge fro many of the allied military forces. A sum of approximately $250,000 is to be used for providing scholarships during the next five years, it was announced. Thirty-seven students are now attending DePauw university on scholarships, thirty-one of them being Indiana men. Fraternity Dance Largely Attended A large delegation of college folk danced In the Riley room Saturday night at the Delta Upsilon state party. Fraternity banners were the main features of the cleoorHtions. Preceding the dance the fraternity men dined in the Florentine room. ,T. M. Bartlett presented DePauw chapter with a silver cup in recognition of its scholarship standard. Paul Isenbarger of DePauw- acknowledged the gift for the chapter. Everett Lett, vice president of the Indianapolis club, and Harold Middleton, alumnus of Indiana university, were speakers at the dinner. Elected by Better Bureau Arthur Taylor of the Continental National bank and Joseph A. Kebler of the R. G. Dunn Company have been elected directors of the Better Business Bureau to fill the unexplred terms of Elmer W. Stout and Arthur Baxter. How Is Your Weight? While it is true that too much weight Is not to bo desired yet the fact remains that many men and women are thin to the point of danger. This danger lies In their having no reserve force or nerve power to combat deadly diseases. A little extra flesh is needed by all to feel well and to look well, and this calls up the question of how best to increase the weight. Physicians and chemists by experiments have solved the problem of Increasing the w-hlfe and red corpuacles of the blood by the administration of 3 grain hyi>n-nuclane tablets, and tbia Is usually followed by an increase of weight. Obtain in sealed packages, and take for a period of several months, according to directions with package.— Advertisement.
