BAYS TJ. S. NEEDN’T ' FEAR ORIENTALS Conditions Bar Peril,* Declares Y Speaker. Under existing economic and social conditions no “yellow peril'* menaces the Slates, declared Dr. Charles H. executive secretary of the Church Federation of Indianapolis, In an address given last night before the Bible Investigation club at the Y. M. C. A. building. He spoke on the subject, ‘"The Japanese Problem.” “While every fourth man in the world, probably every third man, Is a yellow man, yet until they become intelligent enough and united this country need not have apprehensions of any outbreaks from Japan or China,” Insisted Dr. Winders. Dr. Winders said human life was tne cheapest thing In Japan today, and that a wave of licentiousness prevails. - “Japan can not afford to have war with this country, and while she must spread out. It must come through proper immigrant channels," the speaker said. Because of the lack of virile national qualities and the need of changing national Ideals, Dr. Winders explained the of a Japanese problem perplexing the international tribunals. Earl Sigmund, president of the club, presided at the “bean supper” preceding the address. Next Wednesday evening. Dr. Winders will apeak on the subject, “The Negro Question of Today.” Plan New France in Three Years PARIS, May 20.—For the first time since the armistics France is approaching the problem of rebuilding her devastated regions in a business-like manner.

spectadorama, “Pagan Purple." depicting a festival tale of China more than 1.000 years ago, which will be presented at the Circle theater during the week beginning Sunday, May 23. In brief, it is an elaborate and colorful Oriental spectacle, comprising the ballet, melody and hippodrome, and will be presented in addition to the regular motion picture feature. Work on the spectadorama, which has been produced by S. Earrett McCormick, manager of the theater, has been in progress for three weeks. A brilliant array of costumes, grotesque and colorful, including a number of Mandarin coals and silken Chinese garments, has been designed for the thirty-five persons in the east A number of special songs have been written for the production by Norma Gregg and the musical setting has been arranged by Ernest Schmidt director of the Circle orchestra. The story for “Pagan Purple,” which has been taken from an old Chinese lore tale of many centuries ago, centers around three prindpal characters—Evil Eye, Prince Ling Poo and Lotus Blossom—and provides a rich background for the movement of the thirty-five beautifully costumed members of the cast Massive stage settings, each a riot or lights and color, have been arranged for the spectacle by Frank Zlmmerer, art director at the theater. Vegetable Ivory May Reduce Tusk Hunting NEW YORK, May 20.—The new vegetable ivory described by the French bulletin of the colonial office Is a product of the kernel of the edible fruit of Borassus ethlopicum, a palm of the upper Senegal-Nlger territory. The kernel is an Inch and a half long and an inch broad, being of sufficient size for cutting balls, dominoes, buttons, piano keys, or plates for us in marquetry. The dried kernels are so hard that they are even used in the walls of houses for native chiefs, and It Is planned to have a tinted pillar made from them for a projected cathedral at Dakar. Corkscrew Knives Thing of the Past COLUMBUS. May 20.—Knives containing corkscrews are becoming a rarity. Local hardware dealers do not regard the corkscrew knife as necessary as part of their stock in trade. One High street hardware dealer frankly admitted he have one corkscrew knife tn his store and that no customer had asked for one for over a year.
STREET FORCES GIVEN INCREASE City street employes today are rejoicing over a 10 per cent boost granted them last night by the city council. Under provisions of the new wage scale unskilled laborers will receive 50 cents an hour, instead of 40 cents: semiskilled, or Class B, was advanced from 45 to 55 cents an hour, while skilled laborers were granted Increases of 60 cents, over 50 cents.' The wages were increased upon recommendation of the board of public works and ended the strike of the laborers in the asphalt plant. The council failed to raise the salary of Thomas Walter, superintendent of the street cleaning and sweeping department, from $2,500 to $2,750. The superintendent of the ash and street cleaning department, or the second assistant and the third assistant to Walter were granted an increase from SI,SOO to $1,920. The first assistant in the department will receive $2,100, instead of SI,BOO, after having been denied $2,500.

running away with your body it is significant of rapid success: but to dream that you have a wooden leg or tired legs is not regarded as a favorable prognostication. To dream of having swollen legs is accounted a warning against loss or damage through servants, or that one of your friends will be ill. To dream of having a wounded leg is an omen of disappointment—possibly of some slight losses. If you dream that you have more than two legs it is a sign that you are undertaking too many different enterprises and should concentrate your activities.
