Juttatm gatia aitncfl INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA. Daily Except Sunday, 25-29 South Meridian Street. Telephones—Main 3500, New 28-351 MEMBERS OF AUDIT BUREAU OF CIRCULATIONS. ii ( Chicago, Detroit, St. Louis, G. Logan Payne Cos. Advertising ofhces j York, Boston. Pavne. Burns k Smith, Inc. THE PURPOSE of the housing survey of Indianapolis has now been accomplished. Doc Morgan got his name in print again! JUDGE COLLINS forfeited two bonds in criminal court Monday. Two more opportunities for Prosecutor Adams to compromise! AND IF it is determined that there is no legal basis for suspended sentences in the City Court, what’s the law among friends! . NONE OF Jerry Kinney’s six morals squads appears to have accumulated sufficient courage to interfere with the race horse pool selling yet. THE TAXPAYERS’ LEAGUE attributes the high cost of building to combines among supply men, but Judge Collins’s grand jury cannot hear it BILL BLODGETT went all the way to Harrisburg to verify what Gov-ernor-elect McCray said about appointments while in Indianapolis, and he succeeded, too. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE between that drunken affair at Kokomo and affairs nearer home is that Kokomo appears to have been aroused by the celebration. PARDON US if we wonder whether Mr. Raschig writes about full time health officers as a mere newspaper man or as the paid representative of the Indiana Medical Society? A High-Toned Drunk The grand drunk staged at the Kokomo Country Club recently ir. which one hundred of the "best citizens” of Kokomo took part, is a very trite Illustration of the very best efforts of a lot of liquor-loving libertines to prohibition in the United States. It is a further evidence of what appears to be a concerted movement of the lawless, in connivance with the law enforcement officials, to demonstate that prohibition does not prohibit and to attempt to create the sentiment on which the liquor vendors are still depending to reinstate their business within the law. This country is overwhelmingly in favor of prohibition, not only prohibition for the poor but prohibition for the rich. Public sentiment will not tolerate such orgies as was staged in Kokomo any more than it will tolerate the open saloon. But every once in a while certain men whose judgment of their own estate is so warped as to make them believe they are above the law that restrains others, get together and stage such a party. The very audacity of their movements dazzles the police and the prohibition officrs. Their reputations and their influence form an invisible barrier to lawful interference and their debauch goes undisturbed. After it is over, righteous indignation and a certain amount of Jealousy give rise to talk and eventually the story of the drunk becomes a scandal. Good people who do not know the craven character of the men who are presumed to enforce these laws, or the utter lack of courage of the sleek grafters who ask contributions to support them in their ' struggle against the liquor traffic,” are surprised. And their surprise is without justification. Kokomo has long been a fertile field for funds for the Anti-Saloon League of Indiana. Its collectors have taken hundreds of dollars from the territory ostensibly to be used in waging war against the rum traffic, but actually to be expended in the maintenance in a life of ease of men who talk much and do nothing. Kokomo Is also under the jurisdiction of the Indiana prohibition agent who happens just now to be Charles J. Orbison. But neither the Anti-Saloon League nor the prohibition agent can be expected to save Kokomo from the disgrace of such things as happened at the Country Club. The Anti-Saloon League superintendent not long ago indignantly denied that he should be expected to perform any of the functions of a “mere policeman.’’ The prohibition agent contents himself with writing "letters of commendation” to officials who smile at his conduct and laugh at his hypocritical “publicity” Until Indiana develops one he-man who Is willing to stand up and fight the liquor traffic regardless of the insults of the hypocrites and the law violators and the grafting public officers who do not want the liquor 1 laws enforced, we will continue to have such affairs as the Kokomo drunk ; thrust upon us. Suspended Sentences Judge Frank Lahr recently took action In a case which must have ' shown someone where to “head in.” Last May a man was sentenced to ISO days in the penal farm and a fine of SSOO for child neglect, but in the wise and humane provision of the law, the execution of the sentence could ; be suspended, and this was done to enable the offender to reform his ways ! and to care for the child. Otherwise it would have probably been a public j charge. He failed to reform, so the sentence was carried out. The power to suspend a sentence carries a great deal of responsibility with it and at times it is abused by courts. The theory is that the offense , has been committed against the State when a crime is committed, and it places the State in the position practically to pardon the offender before punishment is commenced. This is done in order to permit a reformation, < rather than work the law for revenge. This provision is a wise one and is a step forward in criminology. The first offense is often thoughtlessly taken and there might be an excuse for ; violation of law—if a man were hungry, for instance, and stole a loaf of bread. Once the offender was hung in England Now he can be convicted, hfs sentence suspended and, if he behaves, justice Is satisfied. There is another side of this suspended sentence law which is not so satisfactory to the public. A community may be tormented until life is worth living, by a gang of chicken thieves, purse snatchers or hop lifters, until finally one or two of them are caught red handed and a conviction is assured. The guilty one comes up before a smug judge who has not suffered, whose salary comes quarterly whether he holds court or not, and, after conviction, the red handed criminal is let go free, on a suspended sentence. -This is usually the result cf political influence exerted in his behalf. Recent news dispatches showed a shop lifter of the tender age of over 60 convicted in a court and paroled during good behavior. The judge that did that had an abiding faith in human nature and believed it never too late to mend, or'he thought the majesty of the law would work wonders. The bad effects of poor administration of this law are not only in the demoralization of the criminal but in the effects on an efficient police force. Working for months in untiring efforts and then finally catching the thief, it is disheartening to see the offenders turned loose with only a lecture from the court. The criminal should he truly repentant or he mocks the efforts of the community to respect law and order. Mr. Hoover's Appeal The picture of Herbert Hoover appealing so strongly for money to feed children of Europe, cannot but reach every American. When the history of the war is finally written, the figure of Herbert Hoover will stand out most prominently. It will be that of a man who through his own genius made what Is ordinarily called a fortune and who neglected the ease and comfort that could be his and devoted himself to fighting the non-military battles of many nations. So disinterested has been his services and so extremely valuable has it been to the world, that he really stands out as an International hero. Whenever Mr. Hoover asks for money. It should be forthcoming. Whenever he says, after the great experience he has had, that the American Nation should take certain action, in reference to those subjects with which he is familiar, his word should be law. War develops many things. It developed Herbert Hoover as a master mind, a3 a world citizen. Hls fortune of a million dollars or more is insignificant compared with the work he is doing. So he is obliged to appeal to the Nation for only a Nation could respond and measure up in dollars and cents to the ideas which he represents. a Nation can assist him to accomplish those things for which he stands. This makes Mr. Hoover a national character of the tint magnitude, and Ms sound judgment la such that the American people he aaka. \ T j

WHEN A GIRL MARRIES A New Serial of Young Married Life By Ann Lida

CHAPTER CVII. “Hello, Mrs. Harrison, glad I caught you in,” said Anthony Norreys’ deep, kind voice ns I listlessly took down the receiver. “I'm glad, too—oh, so glad!” I replied —struggling with a silly lump In my throat. I had been down In the depths of bitterness over Jim's desertion of me for the engagement he called "half business, half social.” And now the sound of a friendly voice coming out of the dark void my world had seemed actually set my heart to thumping at a great rate. I didn't guess that before our conversation was finished Mr. Nftrreys’ very friendliness was going to bring home to me my utter friendliness. But It did. “Well, I'm glad you're glad?” chuckled Mr. Norreys. "It's so disappointing to call up a friend with all the enthusiasm in life and get a listless, ’Yes, it's me. Oh, is It you? Awrlght. Wbatcba want?” At his good-natured Imitation of our national telephone manners I laughed. “I know you don’t want anything, Mr. Norreys. Generally, when you cross the path of the Harrisons, It’s to give, not to take. And right now you're cheering

PUSS IN BOOTS JR. 3y David Corw.

Now as little Puss Junior traveled on his Journey the air grew colder and colder. and snow began to fall from the four corners of the sky. And, oh, dear me, the wind from the cold north whist.ed its icy tune through the tree tops and Puss turned up his collar and blew on his paws to keep them warm. And pretty soon as he entered a deep forest, he saw a young man tied to a tree, and when Puss came up to him the young man said in a weak voice. "Little cat, 1 fear I shall perish, for I cannot break these strong ropes which bind me.'' And Just as Puss was about to draw Ids sword to cut the ropes a great gray wolf appeared, and In a snarling voice said: "Leave this young man to me.” And then wlint do you suppose Puss did? He opened his knapsack and took out some honey which the giant, whom I told you about three or four stories ago, had given him, and offered It to the wolf. "This is kind of you.” said the great, cruel animal, and. he licked u be honey and asked for more. So opeued hla knapsack ugain and took out the res' of the honey, and when the wolf bad eaten it, he said: “You have been kind to me, and I will reward you,” and he bit off the ropes and set the young man free, and then he told them to follow him and he would take them to his den for the night. But goodness me. The young man was so stiff from being bound to the tree that

up a little blue lady whose husband is detained on business and who hasn’t been trained to having her boy desorl her—even for his work.” I hadn’t meant to defend either Jim or myself. But as I spoke it hopped Into my mind that maybe Mr. Norreys knew Jim had plans for the evening that didn't inclurfe me and was phoning because he pitied me. I couldn’t have that My husband’s employer—even though he happened to be so splendid a man as Anthony Norreys—must not be permitted to pity .Tim’s wife. At once—and very graciously and gravely—Anthony Norreys set my mind at rest on that score. “There are a lot of things to finish up at our shop. I'm sending one of the force over Into Canada to help establish the Dominion office. Your husband wants to get things out of the way before —that." I wondered if what be had Intended to say was ‘before Doris West goes.’ T wondered if he knew that Jim had an engagement "half business, half coclal. But he went on with no air of self-con-sciousness, no manner of stepping cautiously lest he betray something.-—Copy-right, 1020. (To bo continued.)

ho could hardly move, so the big wolf told him to get upon his back, and then they set off and by and by they came to the wolf’s den. And then the great animal pushed open the door and as soon as he was Inside, ho changed into a man. j "Do not fear me,” he said, "for I will jdo you no harm, but follow mw,” And then he opened another door and bade j them enter. I And when Fuss entered, he saw irsth- | ered around a large table a number of | men armed with bows and arrows, and they turned their faces aud looked at him with frowning brows. But before they could speak, the wolf man said. "I have brought two friends with me, who will help tis In our adventure." And then he asked Fuss and the young man to sit down anil warm themselves before the fire. An 1 while they were sitting there, one of the men at the table got up and began to sing.
