New Reservoir Contract Let
' _ •’ ! **' Jv * - ' -,X ?'■■■?> - * v >~ . , •:
View of the southeastern end of the old “open gallery," the use of which was abandoned about fifteen years ago.
The contract for the excavation for a 10.000,000-gallon reservoir at the Riverside station of the Indianapolis Water Company has been let by the company to It. H. Scott & Cos. The work of excavating Is to begin within a few days, and is to be completed by July 1. The new reservoir—sides, top and bottom—is to be of re-enforced concrete, and it is probable that It will be completed by the first of next year. It will be 547 feet by 258 feet, with a height, from top to bottom of about ten and one-half feet, and will be for pure water—both that from deep wells and from the filter beds. With the completion of the new reservoir there will be a complete reservoir capacity of fifteen and one-half million gallons of pure water at the Riverside station. This, It Is explained, will enable the company to make more continuous use es Us filter bed* and afford It a much greater reservoir capacity from which to draw during "peek'’ demand*, such as are met during certain periods of the day in hot summer months and during big fires. The cost of excavating will be abont $35,000 to $40,000, and the estimated entire cost of the reservoir Is about $285,000. The new reservoir will occupy in part the sits of the old gallery reservoir at the station, commonly known as the •‘open gallery.” The use of this old gnllery was abandoned about fifteen years ago and no water has been pumped from It to the mains during that time, even for emergency purposes.

TODAY’S EEAUTY TALK You can enjoy a delightful shampoo with very little effort and for a very trifling cost, If you get from your druggist a package of canthrox and dissolve a teaspoonful In a cup of hot water. This makes a full cup of shampoo liquid—enough so it is easy to apply it to all the hair Instead of Just the top of the head. Your shampoo Is now ready. Just pour a little at a time on the scalp and hair until both are entirely covered by the daintily perfumed preparation that thoroughly dissolves and removes every bit of dandruff, excess oil and dirt After rinsing, tho hair dries quickly with a flutfiness that makes it seem heavier than it is, and takes on a rich luster and a softness that makes arranging it a pleasure.—Advertisement.

In a telegram received today by Caleb S. Denny, State chairman of the Hoover fnnd, Mr. Hoover said; “Having taken the responsibility to tho American people for between thirty and forty millions of dollars for relief 4ork, I cannot abandon them by resignation. I discussed that with Mr. Harding and 1 feel that I must continue to take the responsibility for the general direction of the relief work. You may give Indiana contributors fullest assurance that 100 per cent of all money collected will be used for direct relief to European children who need our help to live.” Mr. Denny also received announcement that the campaign for $33,000,000 now closing has been successful.
