DEFLA.NCE of court injunctions has never yet been known to win a strike, however. PERHAPS since the salary of president of Germany is raised to a yearly 150.00 G marks, with exchange rates at 1% cents per mark, the nation really does feel that it cannot pay any reparation. AMERICA must not be so bad after all. Europe had a bureau at one port dealing in forged passports to America and New York does not know what to do with the “stowaways." It seems it’s anything to get to America, from Europe. REPORTS say that the ambassador to America Is credited by the finance minister of France with being "too good a Frenchman; he has too good a taute to bar" wine from his table. Likewise he may have too good wine to bar. GAMBLING throughout SpaiL will be suppressed after March 1. In Louisville, Ky., police recently stopped members of a secret order from selling chances on an automobile for the benefit of its widows’ and orphans' home. There may even be a police raid on "The Avenue” in Indianapolis If reform continues. THE ORLOFF TRIO has instituted a very worthy movement by giving a musical evening next Saturday, the proceeds of which are all to go to the public library for the purchase of hooks. It is a shame that a condition should arise wherein public spirited people should feel the necessity of donating their services but, after all. the cause Is very worthy, and an appreciation Is due to the trio. Why Waste $100,000? It is hardly likely that the people of Indianapolis will be deceived Into believing that opposition to Mayor Jewett’s last minute effort to remodel the market house is based on political considerations. For three years Mr. Jewett has had the opportunity to improve the city market and he has given no more attention to it than to the improvement of the street car service, which he also promised. Now, in the last year of his term of office, with a political campaign to name his successor under full sway, he suddenly becomes much interested in remodeling the market place, and his ever faithful supporters attempt to denounce opposition to his plans as a political trick. Mayor Jewett has no plans for the remodeling of the city market in a manner to make it a satisfactory place where producers may meet consumers. He has, however, a scheme by which SIOO,OOO of the people’s money may be expended for the purpose of providing a set of political favorites with a more enticing place to operate their subsidized businesses, with little or no overhead charges, the absence of which does not in any way lower the costs of food products to the consumers. Announcement is made that plans have been drawn and it is proposed to install new plumbing and sewerage, elevate all stands, paint all walls, build an Incinerator, place comfort stations in the basement and stucco on the walls. For all of which the public will be asked to pay SIOO,OOO. Now, there is only one objection to this proposal—about half of it is entirely unnecessary. There is In the city market now, a good and sufficient sewerage system which has been allowed, through mismanagement, to become stopped up and which could easily be cleaned out. Only a few of the stands are now resting on the floor and these could be elevated at the cost of only a few dollars. Paint, stucco and comfort stations could be installed at considerably less than SIOO,OOO. We have often said in the past, and we repeat It now, that the only remodeling of the market house that Is needed is a complete remodeling of the manner In which It is operated. One-tenth of the sum It is proposed to expend, coupled with a reform in the government of the place would accomplish more than can ever be expected from the expenditure of SIOO,OOO by the Jewett administration. Opposition to the administration’s scheme to add SIOO,OOO to its fund for the election of a hand-picked successor should be praised, not denounced, by those who have at heart the interests of the people of Indianapolis. A Peculiar Verdict A recent Jury in Memphis awarded a Milwaukee woman $25,000 out of a fortune of $400,000 left by a Memphis landowner. Her claim was that from 1892 to 1912 parental objection prevented marriage, so the fortune was promised for agreeing to remain single and loyal to the owner. He died at the end of the twenty years’ courtship. It is not disclosed how the Jury found that $25,000 should go to the injured party—she cannot be called a young lady now—nor why the entire $400,000 should not have been turned over to her. * Twenty years is a long time for lovers to abide parental objection—it is likewise a considerable lapse of time for parents to retain control of the affections of a son and successfully oppose his plans for matrimony. Had they married and Buffered the humdrum of existence it might have been a long time, too, to all parties. In this case the matter has been before the Federal Court tn Tennessee for six years and was tried four times. It Is impossible, of course, to form any opinion as to the merits of the litigation, and even a passing notice may assume too many facts. Some things, however, are evident There Is considerable persistency in the litigation, prompted probably by the lawyer of the lady. An equal determination, coupled with the ardor of youthful love, might have had a different termination to the entire matter, in spite of parents, if the attachment were sufficiently strong. T£ e jury, by its verdict, found that the premises on which the entire case rested were true. Twenty long years the course of true love refused to run smoothly—and it wa3 figured by the jury at $1,250 per year. But the information as to flowers and theaters, and presents incidental to a proper wooing by a $400,000 lover is not given and probably the Jury made the verdict small because it figured those items off —Just like the Income tax figures off donations and Interest. It is of consequence to bachelors and fellows who lack the nerve to marry, that while this litigant sued for the entire $400,000 she obtained one-sixteenth of it, and possibly the members ot the Jury would have given her more had not the ravages of time left their Impress upon those charms which could possess the love but could not bring about the marriage of a wealthy man in so long a time. Avoiding the Penalty The action of Austria Is most Interesting, in Its efforts to defeat the reparation demands of the allies. It shows that there is absolutely no conscience nor sense of repentance for the awful condition of the world today. One item ears the Austrian government has refused to hand over the keys to the vault of a bank for the delivery of 65,000,000 gold crowns. Another piece of news Is that the former Emperor is contesting a lawsuit to compel him to turn over Austrian crown jewels valued at $20,000,000. He says these jewels belonged to his family and were not public property, as was supposed. The utter indifference of those who ruled Europe and their supreme selfishness demonstrate that possibly the war was an epoch-ending incident, for it seems impossible that in this day and age rulers could command the lives and property of intelligent human beings, on enterprises such as the last war was, and still sit tightly on the immense fortunes, possibly stolen, while millions perish from hunger and lack of capital to carry on legitimate enterprises. To trick the allies in the reparation demands may be a shrewd game If the central governments get by with it, but those whom they fought are equally as bright as their neighbors and have their wits sharpened by keen hunger besides, to say nothing of a deep sense of the outrage of the war. It is all the more pity that little children whose parents are fired with a common patriotism in these countries, should be hungry—starving, while such sordid indifferenje to their lives is displayed by the former ruling classes. Well may America help under the Hoover leadership. Surely out of such suffering and the disclosure of the attitude of those who, were rulers a better future is warranted.

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

CHAPTER CXLIII. ‘‘l’ve told you before that I won’t have Norreyg snooping around after you,” exclaimed Jim. “.Tim, careful! Terry's not had time to get the elevator yet—he might hear you,” I cried. “Let him hear! The more people hear the likelier it is to come to Norreys’ ears. I won’t have him snooping around after you. That’s flat.” I was tired from the day’s events — finding Betty again, going through the horrible theatre party with Evvy claiming all Jim s attentions, sharing vicariously In Terry’s great emotion and devotion. That may be why I replied as I did. But nothing can excuse the blind stupidity that led me to say what I might have known was sure to accent, If not Increase Jim’s rage. “Jim, I don’t see why you insist on being Jealous of Anthony Norreys. He Isn’t capable of even a thought that is disloyal to you or insulting to me.” “Oh, he’s Saint Anthony, I suppose! Different from other men,” sneered Jim. “No. Just like all fine men. Like Terry, for instance. Decent. Capat)l of a real, Impersonal friendship for a woman. Do you mean to tell me a maw can’t ltko me for my mind—the way he might like you?” “Do you mean to tell me,” mimicked Jim, “that you expect me to swallow all this baby-doll stuff? I suppose you're so pure minded that you didn’t try to

PUSS IN BOOTS JR. By David Cory

You remember in the last story a little Gnome asked Pnss to take a Journey with him. Well, as soon as Puss had recovered from his surprise the Gnome said: “I am the King of the Gnomes, and my subjects have told me how interested you were In reading about us, so I have come to take you for a trip through our kingdom. I know you will love to see all the wonderful things you have been reading about. Will you come?” “Indeed I will,’’ said Puss. “Then follow me,” replied the Gnome. And then Puss Jumped through the window after the little fellow, who ran swiftly down the walk and across the fields to the forest beyond. As they neared the brook that ran through the meadow the Gnome paused. Taking from his pocket a clay pipe, he stooped over and filled it with water. “Did yon e>ver blow soap bubbles?" he asked, taking a piece of soap from another pocket and rubbing It carefully around the Inside of the pipe bowl. ’’Yes,” replied Puss; “lots of times." “Well, you wait and see what sort of a bubble i'll blow,” replied the Gnome. It was a bubble! But the strangest part was that Puss found himself Inside with his little friend. “How did we get Inside, or how did the bubble ret outside of us?” asked Puss, but be fa re his question wag answered away went the bubble up !n the air, across the meadow, above the little brook, over the castle roof and the big black forest until It finally settled on the top of the great mountain which rose above a line of misty clouds into the clear, bright sunlight. Before Puss could ask how they were ever to get out of their bubble balloon the Gnomo opened a little door, through which he led Puss safely to the outer air. There was a great change in the temperature, or else the Inside of the bubble was very warm, for Puss began to shiver. “Who—o!” he exclaimed. “It's cold.” “Os course It Is. Look!" exclaimed the Gnome, and, following the finger of his little friend. Puss saw a strange and terrifying figure. Behind a bank of Icicles stood a giant, with a big silk bat on his head, from which hung long, thin icicles The top of his hat looked like the roof of the old barn st home. Puss thought,

break up my friendship wxth Tom Mason, by telling me a hard luck story of how the villain still pursued you. I suppose you didn't?" “I liked him better tonight. But whether I trust Tom or not has nothing to do with the fact that a wonderful man like Anthony Norreys is capable of a wonderful friendship.” “Well, he can just take his wonderful self and his wonderful friendship somewhere else. I don’t like sanctimonious goody-goodys and never will. And I won’t have one snooping around after my wife." “Snooping!” I repeated in exasperation. “Can’t you find another word?” My feelings were getting the better of me. I wasn't cold, as I usually am In a quarrel. Instead, I was shaken by the injustice of Jim’s attitude, burning to find the way to break through his stubbornness and prejudices and to conquer his tyrannical attitude toward tho man of whose fineness I was convinced. “That word,” said Jim with harsh dignity, “covers the situation. Norreys plays on your sympathy with his wooden arm and his emaciated face. Os course I don’t object to Terry. First of all, good old Terry’s In love with Betty and never thinks of you except as a sister. But Norreys Isn't a ladles’ man—-and he hasn’t a girl of his own; so ho can Just keep off the grass where my girl’s concerned. That's flat.” —Copyright, 1&21. (To be contlnned.)

when the snow and ice hung from Its eavea. The giant's beard and mustache were festooned with little thin silvers of ice, and his shoulders had epaulets of frozen snow. The cuffs of his greatcoat were fringed with sharp needles of Ice, and altogether he was a startling and frigid looking individual. In his hands he held a monstrous bellows, from which at Intervals he would force out a blast of cold ley air, which scattered the snow about In whirling clouds as It went howling down the rocky ravines of the mountain. “He's the Wind Man of the Mountain,” explained the Gnome to shivering Puss, whose toes and fingers by this time were getting quite numb with the cold. “Well, I'd like to meet a hot air man,” said I’uss, blowing on his toes to keep them from freezing. “I’d like to feel warm one* more.” And In the next story you shall hear bow Puss went down Inside the mountain.—Copyright, 192 L (To be continued.) HOROSCOPE “The stars incline, but do not compel I" WEDNESDAY. MARCH t. Until the evening this is not a lucky day, according to astrology, for Saturn has sinister power and Neptnne is adverse. In the evening Venus is in benefle aspect. Criticism of alt that belongs to the old order of things is likely to b encouraged by thl planetary government. Saturn frowns on all who have held the reins of power in state or business, making for them a period of depression and discouragement. Venus Is read as foreshadowing the rapid growth of women’s power in all public affairs. Persons whose blrthdate it is should pay special attention to all business matters during the coming year, but they should safeguard the health and avoid overwork. Children born on this day will prosper best as employes, as they may need guidance for their unusual talents. Neptune Is their principal pin notary ruler.

Wishes an Awakening Indianapolis, Feb. 26. 1021. To the Editor of the Dally Times: Dear Slre-As a citizen of Indianapolis and the State of Indiana, I feel it is high time for the public to awaken. I feel free to congratulate the Indiana Dally Times for what I call a free press, one that seems to awaken the people, but the people seem sluggish after they have been awakened to things that 1 would call the very lowest down work fo r a man that Is truated with our city offices to do. I believe It la time for the public to see to the man or men who have the Influence and not the authority of the State of Indiana to keep thla man Bush from serving his sentence at the State Farm. I say that these men should serve a sentence with him and then be thrown out of office and trustworthy men appointed to these places. Wishing tbe sluggish public an awakening ao we can trust our city and State officers with our city and State affairs, I am Yours respectfully, EDWARD GLORE. 2372 English avenue, Indianapolis.

KEEPING HOUSE WITH THE HOOPERS

(The Hoopers, an average American family of five, living lr a suburban town, on a limited Inc ,me, will tell the readers of the Dally Times how the many present-day problems of the home are solved bv working on the budget that Mrs. liooper has evolved and found practical. Follow them daily In an Interesting review of their home life and learn to meet the conditions of the high cost of living with them.) ) There Is no maid In the Hooper household. The only help that Mrs. Hooper permits herself out of the quota of $9 a week for operating expenses Is a laundress who does the washing and ironing on Tuesday. In order to have Sunday evening free from the annoying detail of sorting and preparing soiled clothes for the laundry, Mrs. Hooper does not have her washing done on Monday, as so many housewives still do, but makes Monday a day of general picking up after Sunday and of getting ready for wash day on Tuesday. For nearly a year Mrs. Hooper has been paying Ellen, the laundress, S3 a day, though she is In no sense a substitute for faithful old colored Martha, who, until her death, had done the family jvash for ten years for a dollar a day, and had been devoted to the Interests of the family. As Mrs. Hooper descended the stairs to the laundry, after Mr. Hooper had gone to the office, and Roger and Helen had departed for school, she caught sight of Ellen putting Baby Betty's colored rompers into the tub with the white clothes. • <Jn the day before she had herself sorted the clothes carefully so that the fine pieces could be washed separately, and the colored ones be laundered by themselves. “Ellen," she exclaimed sharply, “I’ve told you repeatedly that you must not put colored clothes and white ones together.” “Well, I can’t see any harm in It when there’s no color coming out of them," answered Ellen sulkily. “It makes no difference,” replied Mrs. Hooper firmly. “I want you to do it properly, and It is never safe to trust colored pieces In the same tub with white ones." “You’re altogether too fussy, Mrs. written at Andover daring my student life there, I think in the winter of 1831-32. It was first publicly used at a Sunday school celebratloh of July 4 In the Park Street Church, Boston. I had in mj possession a quantity of German song books, from which I was selecting such music as pleased me, and finding ‘God Save the King,’ I proceeded to give It the ring of American republic patriotism.” SEDIMENT CARRIED BT RIVERS. Q. How much sediment is carried into the ocean by the rivers of the United States? G. S. P. A. The Geological Survey says that more than 200,000.000 tons of soils, pebbles and loose rock are carried Into the ocean by the rivers of the United States each year. This amounts to an average of ninety-five tons from each square mile of land surface In this country. EAGLES PROTECTED BY LAW. Q. Is there any law against catching an American eagle and keeping it in captivity ? V. J. A. The Bureau of Biological Survey says eagles are protected either specifically, or by blanket laws which protect all except certain game and predatory birds. In most of tbe States of the Ur lon. There are two species of eagle in this country, the bald eagle and the golden eagle. The bald eagle is the one which is nsed as a symbol of the Amerl-

Hooper,” snapped Ellen, splashing the soap suds about carelessly. “I guess I know my business, and I can work fox plenty of people that know how to mind theirs.” It was with an effort that Mrs. Hoopex Ignored this remark and resisted an impulse to rescue a frail white batiste waist that Ellen was viciously rubbing to khreds on the washboard with as much strength as if it were a pair of coarse, dirty overalls. “I'm not going to work for any one that snoops around the way yon do, Mrs. Hooper,” growled Ellen. “I'll do the wash today, but it will be the last. I’m going to Mrs. Briggs next week.” Mrs. Hooper was quite prepared tot this “notice” from Ellen, who had been growing more sullen and dissatisfied for weeks, but she made up her mind as she carried out the clothes to hang them up in the yard where Betty was playing contentedly In the sand pile that the family’s wearing apparel was too precious a possession in these days of the high cost of materials to put it again Into the hands of a woman of Ellen's careless type. “I'll Investigate electric washing machines at once,” she said to Henry that night, in reply to his protest, when she * told him that Ellen had left and that she Intended to do the washing herself In the future. “With meals as simple as I make them on wash day I can manage very well until we can afford the washing machine," she said, “and In a certain length of time I could save the price of one In wages and in cutting down the wean and tear on ou- clothes.” The three megls for Tuesday weret MENU.

How long has the game of checker* been known, ad what countries play it? J. C. C. A_ A game similar to checkers wa* played by the Egyptians as early as 1600 B. C. It was also known in ancient Greece.
