BITTER STRIFE, HALF HIDDEN IN G. 0. P., BOBS OUT Watson-McCray Faction and Goodrich Lock Horns for Party Control. ATTITUDE OF GOVERNOR Indications that the Republican party, hampered by an unwieldy majority In the State, has revived the bitter factional strife that' waged previously to the primary last spring. Is apparent on all sides. The fight is between Senator James E. Watson, reinforced by Governor-elect Warren T. McCray and Governor James P. Goodrich for control of the Republican organization. Governor Goodrich feels that Inasihcch as his tax law wits one of the main iasnes In the campaign and was., he believes, Indorsed by an overwhelming deluge of Totes, that his administration has been O. K.'d and that, therefore, he is In a position to dictate the policies of the organization. . Watson has not forgotten that be came very near capturing-the organization last spring and now, backed up by the victorious McCray, he is centering his efforts on taking over the party machine In toto. SENATOR NJEW’S POSITION PECULIAR. The position of Senator Harry E. New, who will come up Jot re-election in two years, and who Is the most vitally concerned of all in the organization, is peculiar, to say the least. New. who is given credit for being an astute politician. has not shown bis hand in the

I— ‘ HOROSCOPE • T ’o tnriinc but do not compel.” SATURDAY. NOV. IS. Venus dominates this day with kindly rule, according to astrology ~Baturin3 adverse. It is a sway peculiarly favorable for women who should make the most of • business and social opportunities. I Good luck attends weddings today, unless a young woman weds a man much older than herself, and on such a union I Saturn frowns with sinister intent, i Persons whose birthdate it is will have a steady and successful year in all probability. Those who are employed will benefit. Children born on this day are likely to be industrious and successful. These subjects of Scorpio generally are steadfast and trustworthy. ‘ factional strife so far, maintaining the | same neutral attitude be took last spring. ! Political observers, however, do not • believe that New will look with favor ion any proposition, that will make his candidacy amenable to an organization controlled by his colleague, Senator Watson. On the other hand. It Is pointed I out, It is doubtful if he has any ambi- ’ tion to run under the flag of Goodrlchlstn. Although reports have been afloat ever since the election that the Watson-Me- , Cray forces would try again for party control, things .did not come to a head • until the Governor-elect and Goodrich ! broke over the reappointment of Philip ; Zoercher to the State Board of Tax Com- ; mlssioners. SITUATION OF LAST ;SPRING RECALLED. ; It is recalled by those who were familiar with the fight last spring that | Watson would bare ousted E. M. Was- | muth, a Goodrich man. from the State

chairmanship If McCray had not weakened at the last moment. Between them the Senator and McCray controlled enough districts to have controlled the selection of anew chairman, but at the crucial moment McCray got “cold feet” and left Watson with nothing to do but surrender with the best grace he could summon. McCray went to victory under tho Goodrich banner, but it was apparent all along that their political intimacy was born of expediency and not of any desire for personal friendship. At the first opportunity Goodrich showed his band by flouting the Gover-nor-elect In naming Zoercher on the tax board. McCray charges he was “doublecrossed” and vows he will oust Zoercher at the first opportunity. McCray will, after he assumes office the first of the year, have a powerful weight in any organization battle, but he is not the politician that Goodrich is. The Governor’s ability to make adroit political moves Is not questioned, and that one attribute makes him a formidable figure In the fight that he has precipitated.

Tells Stories as Profession and Tells About It 4 Story Hourt? Woman of Public Library Loves to Interest Children, t “I took up story telling because I am Irish and Just can’t help telling stories,” said Mrs. Vaughn Andrews, of the Indianapolis Public Library, who Is conducting “story hours" at the Indianapolis settlement houses. She declares she has always loved to tell stories ever since she was a “wee” girl, and when she grew up she didn’t know what else to do, so she went to the University of Pittsburgh, where she studied to become an entertainer of the small children In the public schools. “In fact,” she said, “when I began to get old enough to begin thinking nbout a profession, my father told me I could tell such good stories that even lie could not tell whether they were ‘founded on fact or fiction,’ and that It was the only thing he did know I was good for.” TELLS STORIES ON PLAYGROUNDS. Previous to her affiliation with the Indianapolis Public Library, Mr*. Andrews held a “story telling" hour during the vacation months for the children of the municipal playgrounds under the nui spices of the Recreation Department. For a half hour each week Mrs. Andrews tells stories dear to the hearts of ! the kiddies at the Greer Street Community House, the Methodist Settlement House, the Chrlstamore Settlement House, the Lauter Memorial and the Jewish Community House. Mrs. Andrews says th,e Italian children are the most interesting to her and show the closest, most Intense attention. “They sit around on the chairs and floor all dirty and ragged and tousled

and listen with their big dark eyes. ‘Pinocchio’ la their favorite. For three years I have been telling it, and It seems they can’t hear It too often. No matter how tired I am after I am all through one of them will come up to me and ask me In wistful, pleading tones to tell just ‘that one* and I can’t resist." This year Mrs. Andrews Is making a specialty of the old Greek myths, picking out the legends of the Iliad and the Odyssey most fitted to the children’s minds. In addition to these she tells folk stories and the ever popular fairy stories. In discussing the popularity of the Greek myths Mrs. Andrews said they have been received by the children with more enthusiasm than she expected. “When I first started out 1 though they would be too heavy, but I have found they can be simplified to be ex-
