Burns & Smith, Inc. , - -- ■ 1 ■ ■■■==■ THE SCRAMBLE for places on the State board of agriculture is insignificant when compared to the crowd around the McCray pie counter. INCIDENTALLY, in the selecting of anew Senator for Indiana, are the people of Indiana to have anything to say, or is the senatorial cabal to dictate? PROGRESS comes apace. Now Sheriff-Elect Snider proposes to hold Sunday school classes in the same jail that Sheriff Miller made notorious by allowing the prisoners to play poker. PERHAPS those Republican politicians who are advocating the elevation of Senator New to a seat in the Cabinet feel that after all he might not be such a popular candidate in the next senatorial race. at.THOUGH Charles Evans Hughes is scheduled to discuss "The Fate of the Direct Primary" before the National Municipal League in Indianapolis. Warren T. McCray has apparently settled that question by demanding the repeal of the law in Indiana. \ The Primary Law Unfortunately the State primary law which Governor-Elect Warren T. McCray wants to repeal because he believes it has come into disfavor has been made unpopular by the party of which he is now the titular head. And the Governor-Elect Is not among the least of the offenders. Theoretically the law Is designed to afford the voters of Indiana an opportunity to express their free and unfettered choice of their party's nominee for President, Vice President, United States Senator and Governor. Practically, from a Republican viewpoint, it has resolved itself into a scheme under which lavish campaign expenditures are made by the contending candidatesOr course the funds spent by Republican candidates In the last primary were, in the eyes of the law, for legitimate purposes, yet they reached such high proportions as to astound the public and to bring about a certain reaction against the measure. Mr. McCray is correct A poor man has no chance to become a candidate for a high office under the primary law as it was used last spring. This was proved when Edgar D. Bush, a man of comparatively small means, was compelled to drop out of the Republican gubernatorial contest because he could not stand the pace. A gruelling financial stride was set by the three other Republican aspirants for Governor. James W. Fesler spent McCray spent more than $30,000 and-Edward C. Toner spent more than $20,000. In addition to that, managers of at least two of the four Republican presidential candidates. Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood and Governor Frank O. Lowden, expended enormous sums of money in courting the Hoosier voters. The Democratic side of the primary was conducted more nearly according to the precepts of the theoretical side of the law, the four gubernatorial candidates keeping their expenditures at such a low figure that not even the poorest aspirant would have been precluded from entering the listsThe law as it now stands is a Republican measure. Republicans have abused its'principles and now Republicans propose to wipe It off the statute books. The direct primary system is considered progressive legislation. Many regard its elimination and consequent reversion to the old party convention as a retrogressive step. It is to be hoped that the incoming Legislature will weigh the matter carefully before making a final decision. The law undoubtedly can be amended and it is possible that a "poor man” can be given an opportunity through restrictions on the amount of money that can be expended by candidates in primary campaigns.

rhy the Contract? It is difficult for the average citizen to see Just wherein a “victory" has been won by Samuel Ashby, corporation counsel. In the formulation of the contract with the gas company which is before the city council for ratificationUnder the terms of this contract the gas company agrees to make certain Improvements which It agreed to make when its ratee were raised two years ato, provided It can sell Its securities. In return for this agreement to carry out a former agreement, the gas company obtains the legal right to do what It has done without legalization for more than a year—curtail our gas when we need it most. For several winters past the gas company has claimed the right to shut off consumers who used gas for heating, although at the same time Its appliance department was busily engaged in selling heating apparatus. Last winter and this fall it exercised what It claimed to be its right to reduce pressure when gas was most needed. In effect, the gas company has created the priority classes which are described in the contract offered the city and there Is nothing new or satisfactory in Its present proposal that the city agree to allow It to continue in accordance with this priority program. Mr. Ashby’s “victory" appears to consist of inducing the gas company to describe the program which it has been following and intends to follow and every gas consumer in the city was sufficiently familiar with that program to have waived a reduction of it to writing. Ratification of the proposed supplemental contract with the gas company will probably do no harm and certainly will do no good. There is a possibility that It may be used as a stepping stone to a petition for higher gas rates based on the alleged inability of the gas company to sell such of its securities as must be sold in order that it may carry out the constructive program outlined in the agreement with the city. ' v - Certainly the contract will not bring to the consumers of Indianapolis any more gas or gas of any better quality than we have been compelled to put up with the last two yearsBeds or No Beds? It is announced that the authorities in charge of the Statehouse are about to remove the private sleeping quarters of the judges of the higher courts of the State from that structure. Where the judges will go and what effect this will have upon the decision of the court causes some concern. One of the feculiar things about a trial of a case in court, no matter how important the case is, is the fact that the jury composed of ordinary citizens is required to adjourn to the jury room and there to remain in continuous session until a verdict or agreement is reached or until the Judge discharges the jury. In all the affairs of life that are important a little time may be taken in which to think over a decision about to be made. Some people will decide nothing without sleeping over it, as they express it, but the Jury must go into a room and stay there day and night until in their good Judgment a verdict is reached. How Important It is for the Judges of the higher courts of appeal to have bedrooms furnished them in the Statehouse Is indeed a problem, bqt possibly their thinking over some questions can be done in bed as well as on the bench. It is not a part of the equipment of these courts to be furnished with folding beds nor a place to sleep. If it were we would have a greater scramble for judgeships of the higher courts. Nevertheless, It is difficult for a layman to see why any Judge of the Supreme Court or the Appellate Court should have sleeping quarters in the Statehouse when there are so many bachelor clubs in town that the judges might occupy with dignity and good grace. To those skilled in the finer art of distinguishing the points raised by the legal fraternity the upsetting of the urbanity, or shall we say suburbanity, to quote a joke of a famous jurist, will be watched with a great interest and if the decisions of the higher court are not up to the standard which they have always occupied in the world heretofore, it is believod that the Legislature can be prevailed upon to establish a dormitory or to rent a room some place for these judges. ,By all means let us keep up their morale - IK

WHEN A GIRL MARRIES A New Serial of Young Married Life — By Ann Llsl*

CHAPTER XCIX. On the morning after Virginia’s dinner I woke to a world about as savorless as a cold rice pudding without raisins in It or cream to go with it. Virginia and I were at swords* points over an unexplained friendship with Pat Dalton. And Phoebe and I—where were Phoebe and I ? The child had turned bitter and morose over the nipping of her love affair with Neal. In this I dared not Interfere—partly because I couldn’t risk still more misunderstanding with Virginia, partly because I was afraid to play Providence to the affairs of my fickle young brother and the child who had almost confessed It was loneliness and lack of other young companions that had swept her Into Neal’s arms. One thing I didn't believe —and that was Phoebe’s story that she’d been calling Longley, the florist, when the maid reported that Long Distance and Fortysomething didn’t answer. Long Distance might srfund a bit like Longley the Florist —but the florist’s number was 8820—and that couldn’t be mistaken for Forty-something, while Fort Startling, where Neal was training could easily be eo twisted. I longed to help Phoebe—but what could I do? As Jim had said, I'd better beep my hands off his sisters’ affairs until I’d proved myself capable of handling my own. And to what pass had I brought my

By David Cory. You remember In the last story that little Puss Junior sailed away with Captain Jason, who had Just taken the Golden Fleece away from the dreadful dragon. Well, after many days, they came to a beautiful greene country, and Puss said goodby and went bis own way. And by and by be came to a palace where lived King Midas, Now, although he was a king, be was very unhappy, because once upon a time, he had made a wish that everything be touched might turn Into gold, and goodness rue! After that bo was In a terrible fix. If be took up a Liberty Roll to eat for breakfast. It turned to gold, and on Meatless Tuesdays, when be tried to break his breakfast eggs be couldn't eat them, for they had turned to gold, and a gold egg is more Indigestible tbfn a hard-boiled one, let me tell you. So, after a yUUe, this poqr king didn't know what to do, and when he saw little Puss Junior he said to himself, "Perhaps this strange cat can help me.” and he picked up his long kingly robes and l raa out to meet our little traveler. And when he had told Puss his troubles be sat down on a stone and said, "Ah me! I wish I were a beggar!” And then Puss scratched his head and looked very wise, and after that he said: “Come with me, your Royal Highness, I know of a river which wtli wash away your golden touch.” and he led the poor, miserable king for many a mile until tbey came to a river. And after they had followed along Its bank they camo at las: to a little spring, from which It started. “Now. dip your Angers in the water," said Puss, and when the king had done that what do you suppose happened? Why, all the sand turned Into gold, nnd you tnay bs sure that Puss tilled hi* pockets, for gold Is a mighty good thing for a traveler to have, let me Tell you. It will take him to the end of the earth end back again and maybe buy him a Liberty Bond. .And when King Midas took hit bands out of the wafer tbey were Just as they used to be, and be could touch thing* and tbey didn't change Into gold. And this so' delighted the king that he said, "Never will I be king again. I shall live In the country and build a little hut near the place where my good friend. Mr. Pan lives.” And yon remember who Pan was. I'm sure. He had the fee.ts and legs of a goat and was the king of the shepherds. Well, after that King Midas took Puss along with him, and by and by they saw Mr. Pan In the distance," playing on his musical pipes. And when ho camengar enough Mr. Pan said: “I can play better than Caruso can sing." and this made n handsome young man named Apollo very angry. For Apollo was tbe greatest musician of Ills day, and no sooner had Mr. Pan made his foolish boast than Apollo too kup his lyre and played such lovely music that every one for miles around gathered near, and the king of the mountain, wh lived near by, shouted In a great voice that Mr. Pan’s wsn’t one, two, tree, uud that his friend, Mr. Midas, should have another pair of ears, for his were very poor ones to think that Mr. Pan's music was more beautiful than Apollo’s. And then, all of a sudden, instead of his own, Mr. Midas had a long pair of donkey’s wars. And while all this excitement was taking place, little Puss Junior slipped away, and In the next story you shall hear what be did.—Copyright, 1920. (To B Continued.)

It was perfectly true that the first wild love, the longing that had swayed me, the desire to be In Jim’s arms that bad once been stronger than anything else In my world, had lost Its first vividness of color and its Immensity of feeling. But that didn’t mean that I’d stopped caring. Jim wasn’t the perfect hero I had once thought him —but he was still my man. However, he failed me, however he humiliated me or disappointed me, Jim was niy man. He had my heart and my faith and my first loyalty along with my first dreams. I hadn't taken them away. He had Just handed them back to me very politely, saying as he did so: "You let me go my way—and I'll let you go yours. Weil cut out a bft of the lovey-dovey stuff and act like good pals."

Is to exude a fluid matter through tho pores of the skin, to "transpire" .s to exhale water vapor, as from tho tissues of plants. INDIAN SUMMER. Q. What la the origin of the term Indian summer? M. L. F. A. There has been considerable difference of opinion regarding tbe origin of tbe tertn Indian Summer. One of tbe most plausible explanations Is as follows: During the Indian wars, tbe attacks of the Indians on the pioneers abated considerably during the winter months, and they accordingly felt reasonably safe when winter once set in. Then when there were two or three weeks of very mild weather following the first cold spells, the Indiana had another opportunity to make an attack. COLDEST TIME OF NIGHT. Q. What Is the coldest time of night? Is this time colder in the country than in the city ? G. E T. A The Weather Bureau saye that the coldest time In the twenty-four hours is just before FUnrtse. This time Is usually colder in tbe country, owing to tbe ab w ire of buildings, pavements, smoke, etc. BELT TROI'BLB. Q. I run a machine that has a belt that slips a great deal. What should be done? W. M. B. A. The Bureau of Standards says tr.at there are a number of belt dressings on tbe market which will reduce the slipping somewhat. However, If the belt slips. It Is an indication that It la being called upon to carry more power than It was Intended to carry. A wider belt may be needed. WALMT STAINS. Q. llow can black walnut stains bs removed ? D. I. R. A. The Department of Agriculture says that concentrated soap solution, prepared by shaving about ono cubic Inch of laundry soap Into one pint of hot water, will remove fresh stains from cotton and linen. If (bey are boiled In It. If tbe stain Is old, use Javeile water dliubed with equal parts of hot water. Soak stuln for one aud one-half hours in solution, rinse thoroughly, treat with diluted oxalic acid end rinse again. WALK INO FERNS, Q. Why la tho walking fern so named? E. A. B A. The most Interesting characteristic of this speetc-s is found in the way In which the fronds arch over until they touch the earth, tviyjre they root aud form new plant* bom# of our other ferns occasionally produce plants In this way, but In this species It is IT regular habit. The new plants grow up, repeating tho process of walking, and soon the original plant la surrounded by quite a colony of Us own offspring without tbe Intervention of spores. The connections between them are slow to die and It Is not unusual to s-e three or four generations linked together. mighty Waters. Q. Which river has the greatest discharge, the Mississippi or the St. Lawrence? R. A. L. A. Tbe St. Lawrence has s far greater discharge. The average discharge of the Mississippi Is about (500,000 cubic feet per second, while that of the St. Lawrence Is approximately 1,130,000 cubic feet per second. LIQUID QUART. Q. How much la a quart in cubic Inches? W. J, L. A. A liquid quart is equal to 57.7 cubic Inches. HOROSCOPE "The stars incline, but do not comp#:." j FRIDAY, NOV. 19.

MOVE TO RAISE ATTENDANCE AGE To Frame Law to Keep All in School Until 16. A bill will be presented to the regular session of the Legislature asking for sweeping changes in the school attendance laws, it was decided at a meeting held Wednesday in the office of the State Superintendent of Public Instruction and attended by representatives of the State Board of Charities and various child welfare organizations. The recommendations of the conference will be embodied In a bill to be prepared by the State child welfare commission and will be submitted to Governor Goodrich about Dec. 1. One of the most Important recommendations to be made to the Legislature will be a ebange In the compulsory attendance laws. At present pupils are required to attend school until they are 34 and then may leave to work providing they obtain a certificate. Should they not have a certificate to work they are required to go to school until 1(5 years old. It will be recommended to the Legislature that the compulsory attendance ag“ b ■ raised to 10 years. Requests from Amish representatives that girls be permitted to leave school at tbe age of 13, and that they be required to complete only the fifth grade, and that boys be allowed to leave school at the age of 14, met with strenuous opposition from the conference. The Amish representatives were from La Grange County. Another important recommendation favored by the conference was the abolishment of the State board of truancy and the transfer of itg duties to the State department of public Instruction. This would be accomplished by a State attendance officer to be appointed by the State superintendent. Recommendation was also made for an increase In the minimum wage for attendance officers, making It SBOO, the same as the minimum wage for teachers. The conference was attended by Donald DuShane, Columbus; Mary A. Spink, Indianapolis: Mrs. Albion Fellowes Bacon, Evansville; Mrs. T. A. Cox, State industrial board; Mrs. Edna Hatfield Edmondson, Bloomington; Miss Vida Newsom, Columbus; Oscar H. Williams, State supervisor of teacher training; W. A.
