FAIRBANKS GIFT PVCCEPTED BY CITY [lnterest on $50,000 to Go for Educational Purposes. qf a gift of $50,000 be- ' quefcthed the city by the late Charles "Warren Fairbanks, was voted by the city council last night. The money, which will be known as the Cornelia Cole Fairbanks memorial fund, will be deposited for a period of 500 years. The interest will be used for the erection of educational and recreational buildings. The fund will be administered by a board composed of seven members, two to be appointed by the governor, two by the mayor, two by the Indiana supreme court, and the seventh by the other six. The appointment of a fifth assistant civil engineer at a salary of SI,BOO a year was authorized by the council. The council defeated a proposed amendmmt to the traffic ordinance prohibiting left turns by traffic at some or the downtown crossings where this rule does not already apply. The council will hold a special meeting tomorrow night for the purpose of considering an ordinance Increasing the pay-of employes at the city asphalt I About 100 employes at the plant walked out three weeks ago because they believed their wages were insufficient. ! They were receiving 40 to 50 cents an hour. A 10 per cent increase is contemplated. A private meeting was held by members of the council with members of the board of public safety at which the proposed complete motorization of the Indianapolis fire department, at a cost of $500,000, was discussed. Some of the members of the council are against the plan. LOCAL ENGINEER KILLED IN CRASH P. M. Ahl Caught in Wreckage in Unusual Accident. The body of Philip M.

V At a Reception You are in time at a reception if you arrive any time within the hours mentioned In the invitation. No apology should be offered for earliness If you arrive before most of the guests or for tardiness if you arrive toward the close of the reception. Your stay at a reception may be an hour or barely a quarter of an hour, depending on the amount of leisure at your disposal and the number of friends and acquaintances with whom you wish to converse, but unless you are a very good friend of the person giving the reception or have been asked to do so, you should not remain for the entire duration of the reception. Do not wait to be asked to go to the dining room for refreshments at a large reception; if no one pays you this attention you should feel no offense but should go of your own accord. At an afternoon reception a woman may dress in elaborate afternoon dress or in street dress, always with gloves, hat and other outdoor accessories. Never remove the suit coat, and usually one does not remove the veil or gloves. At a formal reception the rule Is that the men remove the right glove so as to be able to shake hands courteously, and leave the left glove on, but men of this generation usually discard both gloves. At an evening reception a man wears, of course, full evening dress, while a woman wears elaborate evening dress and does not leave her hat on. ' WHAT READERS ASK. “When you entertain a girl at a restaurant, who takes her wraps, the man or the waiter?" There is no hard, fast rule, but the man usually does the courteous thing.—Copyright, 1320. St. Louis to Peking Trains Predicted ST. LOUIS. May 18.—Julean H. Arnold, commercial attache to the United States embassy at Peking, described to a St. Louis audience recently the possibility, or as he phrased It, the probability, of direct rail communication between St. Louis and Peking. “Some day,” he said, ”you wilt be able to board the Peking express here, travel to Alaska, go by rail for the thirty miles of tunnel under Behring strait, through Russian Siberia and on down to China. Because of the proximity of Alaska and Siberia, the two are virtually one land area."
