PEELING IS UP f IN COUNCIL ON GAS CONTRACT $2,750-000 Obligation and Ratifying Ordinance Sent to Committe of Whole. FIRE TRUCKS BOUGHT The contract of the Citizens Gas Company with city officials, by which the company agrees to make §2,750,000 improvements, will be taken up Thursday night by the city council. The contract and a ratifying ordinance were referred last night by President G. G. Schmidt to the committee of the whole, the meeting of which will not be public. Indications were that some councilman are not satisfied with the amendments, which give the gas company the right to ration gas during shortages as welt ss bind it to make plant extensions, but whether this dissatisfaction will result in the death of the contract, which Corporation Counsel Samuel Ashby has laboied for two months to bring about, la uncertain. Administration leaders expressed the hope that the ant'-admlnis-tratlon feeling In the council would not lead that faction to cause the loss of what the corporation counsel regards a great victory, inasmuch as the gas company binds Itself to complete irn provements which the city had no power to order. FUNDS ARE TRANSFERRED. Various contracts were approved, funds transferred and new ordinances Introduced for these purposes. The contract by which the board of public safety agrees to buy two slxty-flve-foot aerial ladder trueks and one eighty-five foot aerial ladder truck for the fire department from the Americas La France Fire Engine Company of Elmira, N. TANARUS., was approved. The city pays a total of $43,796.50 for the equipment. Another ordinance ratifying the purchase of two five-ton White motor trucks for the ash hauling department from ) L. H. Colvin, local agent, was referred to a committee. The contract for .the rental of two "Lutz Surface Heaters" from the Equitable Asphalt Maintenance Company of Kansas City, Mo.. w Introduced for ratification. The board of public works negotiated a contract vjith this concern several months ago. out the ratifies- 1 tlon ordinance died In council committee without action. The city proposes to use the two heaters for the repair gnd resurfacing of old asphalt, brick and ■tone pavements. They can not be bought outright, because the Kansas City firm owns exclusive patent rights. Rental for , the two machines for two years will be at the rate of 10 cents a square yard for the first 36 000 square yards of street Worked on and 5 cents a square yard thereafter, provided that If the rental should be less than SSOO a year the board will make this minimum payment. The "street and alley Improvement | fund" under the board of works was given another body blow in an ordinance transferring $13,000 from it to other funds. CONTRACTS FOR SWITCH LAVING. Five contracts for the laying of switches across streets were approved at follows: Gale Construction Company, across Avondale place; Central Veneer Company, across Keystone avenue; Adams Rogers Company, across Gray street; M ' A. Nowlin Feed Company, from the Penn- 1 sylvania Railroad across Harding and Miller streets, and Samuel A. Harrah for i the Harrah Coal Company from the Pennsylvania railroad across Miller street. Tee two latter were passed under suspension of the rules. A report of Fred Hoke, chairman of : the centennial committee on the dlspo- i sitlon of an appropriation of §25,000 made ' by the council last spring to defray the j expenses of the centennial celebration t was ordered printed In the council pro- I ceedlngs. Mr. Hoke reported total reeelpts of §32,525.19, §25.000 of which was from the city, with expenditures of §26,- j 844.24. leaving a balance of §5.680.95, reverting to the city. Os this sum §3,- • 187.45 was In the hands of the committee and was returned to the city by check. | An amendment to an ordinance passed 1 several months ago, by which the board of works was inadvertently Inhibited to j pay §1 an hour for team hire was j amended so that the boarj) may pay any rate not to exceed $1 an hour.

OVERSEAS CORPS DIRECTS WORK Industries Canvassed for Red Cross Memberships. All Indianapolis industrial concerns are being canvassed this week for Red Cross members. It was announced today at the headquarters of the Indianapolis Red Cross chapter. Miss June Gray, who Is In charge of the teaching center of the local chapter and who was a member ol the staff of Base Hospital No. 32 in /ranee during the war. Is In charge of a corps of young women who are visiting the big industrial plants to rampalgn for members. All members of the corps saw service overseas.

The as soclatlon Is on record ns favoring the ictive participation of all Its members in the campaign, Mr. Brookshire said, and he expects the druggists will be able to contribute materially to the success of the work.

These membership* will be accredited to the various ward and precinct organizations and by filling out the blank each worker will assist greatly in obtaining Marion County's full qnotn of membership*. “The letters were mailed with the thought that women who actually saw service with the Red Cross during the war would have even greater appreciation for the work the Red Cross is doing than would the general public.”
‘UNKNOWN GOD’ SUBJECT OF TALK Dr. James I. Vance Makes Noonday Address. “The Unknown God" was the subject of an addres* by Dr. James I. Vance of Nashville, Tenn., In an address at a noon meeting at Keith's Theater The Y. M. C. A. quartet gave a special number. Dr. Vance, who will address the noon meetings every day this week, was Introduced by C. A Winders, secretary of the Indianapolis Church Federation. Dr. Vance pointed out that there nr* few persons so crude that they do not at some time have moments when they acknowledge to themselves that there Is a God “We cannot go back Into the very earliest history when there waa a time that the peoples did not have a feeling that there was a divine power,” be slid In discussing the "unknown god," Dr. Variee said that the greatest works of the human race have been given to the world by unknown persons, lie pointed out that God's works are thus considered the work of an unknown, but that by them we may know him. “Do we then belong to that class of ancients in Athens 2,000 years ago who built a shrine to the unknown god because they felt that there was one. but did not know what or how he waa'/" he inquired, pointing out that since God hHa always existed he Is not a product I of human invention. "I firmly believe persons who have fear j of neither God nor man," said Dr. Vance, ] "are not straight. It la better to have some Indefinite feeling of s god than not to have any; for such will lead you to respect right. The fHt that some hide behind religion is not any indication ; that they are sincere. But If men can do j no better than to worship at tb shrine ' of God as unknown he will meet them ‘ at that alter Tor he Is not trying to | puzzle people, nor Is he trying to hide ! from them." “The Bible 1* not the only book that God ha*. He Las another bound In green and gold; that of nature. And He, has f.tlll another, that of human expe- j rlence, and It Is really In the realm of experience that we becoino best acquainted with God. But God Is not con- j tented with books alone. He has also j sent us a living word—Christ. Thus we have learned that God Is In the shop, on the street, at the table, wherever people are. 80, If we wont God, we have to live.” Dr. Vance, In pointing out the way of Christian llfo, said thut the tasks of 3od must not only be submitted to, but must be sought for. He also showed J that God t* the Inspiration that causes ; men and women to accomplish great , things In life. “The high Ideal of a person's life or the goal to which he dedlcntas himself is 3od'a Inspiration," Dr. Vance declared.

U. S. Office Still Seeking Source of Home Brew *Yarn ’ Status Same as When Volstead Law Enacted, Williams Says. WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.—They are still hunting for the source of the home brew “yarn" at the Internal Revenue Bureau. Commissioner Williams still la unable to find and record of anew home brew ruling. The status of home brewing. It was authoritatively stated. Is the same as when the Volstead law was enacted. The only change officially made since Its enactment has been to tell enforcement officers that while home brewing Is technically Illegal, yet to construe “liberally" all provisions relating to the making within the home of wines and beers that are In fact non-alcoholic. That's where home brew stands today. Home brewing, with no purpose to manufacture for sale, is not to be disturbed by enforcement agencies. The bureau for the present will concern itself only y th the flagrant praetice of some concerns In exploiting and advertising that certain mixtures can be used in thp making of intoxicating beverages. This covers home brew formulas sold along with compounds. But no effort has been, or will be made, to restrict the sale of tfhe brewing ingredients sold separately.

HANOVER BOARD $4.50 PER WEEK Students Benefit—Old H. C. L. Hits Faculty. Special to The Times. HANOVER, Ind., Nov. 16.—Four fifty a week for board 1* the price students are paying at Hanover College. And these young men and women are receiving good, wholesome food, too.. They are neither charity patients nor the victim* of profiteer*, 'fihe college dining room Is run on a purely business basis, with close attention to every detail of buying, preparation of meals and attractive service. Meats and staples are bought at wholesale, fresh vegetables are secured from neighboring farms and the college poultry yard keeps the student table well supplied with eggs. Preserving time Is msrked by a busy confusion In the kitchen, where quarts upon quarts of fruit and vegetables are put away for | the winter season. Tie, Just as good as mother ever made, J is common fare at Hanover, except on the ! football training table. In addition to ; this there are such tempting dessert* ns would make the mouths of any healthy j boy or girl water. This little college overlooking the Ohio ' and the Kentiicky hills, has always been nn Ideal institution for the student of moderate means. At the time of its Inception. ninety-three years ago, board wa rated at 73 cents a week. Stndent3 were permitted to labor three honrs a day In the field, or in the shop, to defray expenses, 5 cents an hour being the usual remuneration for auch services. If a boy then 'found the cost of an education too expensive, he sought employment on Saturday to meet his additional obligations. For many years, tuition was less than a dollar a week. As recently as 1919, $45 covered the tuition fee. Although the high cost of living has not hit the students of Hanover very hard, the faculty has been less fortunate. The majority of the teachers In this institution have grown old In the service of the college. One professor, who has been at his post for forty years. Is receiving enjy $1,500 annually. The maximum paid the teaching staff is §1.700. Forty years ago that sufficed for fairly comfortable living; today It misses that mark by a wide margin. In order that the faculty may receive remuneration more nearly in keeping with the service they ar* rendering, the cc.llege is seeking an endowment of $500,000 to raise the salaries of the teaching stuff, and perfect equipment. College authorities insist that Hanover must not lose Its distinction as a college for students of moderate means, by raising th* price of tuition. At the same time it must maintain Its record assn Institution of th* highest educational standard. Thla can b* done only through enlargement of its endowment fund.
