NOR is it too early for the park board to begin the materialisation of those oft-promised swimming pools! MAYOR JEWETT announces that he will make three speeches for Mr. Howe in this campaign. Jiow many .did he make for J. W. Fesler in the last primary! MR. HOWE prefaces his. pleas for nomination with the declaration that he is in “dreadful earnest.” And a lot of Indianapolis people will emphasize the adjective. IT MIGHT BE interesting for the Woman’s Department Club to consider just how much it accomplished in the way of market reform by pledging the candidates of four years ago! EVIDENTLY the public service commission has discovered that there 'Was enough of a problem presented to it by the street car company to require more than a few hours of thought! A Sensible Conclusion The very sensible manner in which the board of directors of the Indianapolis Humane Society and the faculty of the Indiana University School of Medicine have agreed to a plan of inspection at the college to protect the dumb animals used in the surgery from abuse will meet the sincere commendation of the public. Under the agreement which has just been made the humane society is in a position to check against any cruelty that might be practiced snd the college fe in a position to demand protection from the society against any unjust criticism of its methods. Responsibility for what happens to the dog3 in the surgery of the college is now squarely upon the shoulders of the Indianapolis Humane Society, which has resolved to be represented at the clinics. With representation at the clinics and the special police powers conferred on society members, there can be no excuse for unpunished violations of the laws of the State concerning cruelty to animals. The only possibility for neglect of the dogs at the medical collgee lies in neglect on the part of the society. Its president, W. H. Roberts, has not as yet made public the personnel of the committee of inspection, but it is reasonable to believe that he will select a committee suited for the work and the committee ■will do its duty. Failure on the part of the society or of its committee to perform the duties set out iq the resolution will immediately be detected and will bring Kn the society such a storm of pub!i<* criticism as it cannot survive. The agitation which has been a source of such annoyance to the coland the society has been productive of good results. At the same time as not been without its undesirable features. The feeling that has been aroused against the college among the dog lovers of this State will not soon be eliminated. But the college has only itself to blame for its scope. Had not Dean Emerson undertaken to follow the mistaken theory that “no criticism of the college deserved notice” the faith of the public in the intentions of himself and his associates would never have been shaken. . Plagiarism A near joke recently was perpetrated on a big publishing house in New York by a person who plagiarized many poems and had them published. A reviewer of books of a New York daily paper discovered the scheme and, although the would-be posted SSOO for the first edition of his alleged works,.he neither has the books nor the money. It was early discovered that numerous poems were written by others and published before. Ttqis, before the edition was issued, the Dright hopes of the fake author were dashed to pieces, for larceny of ideas as well as stealing of goods is not countenanced in good company. While it is likely no prosecution will follow the attempted purloining of poems, the public will nevertheless constantly have in mind the reference to the stealing of the purse as trash, tut of the good name as injury. A little poem may possess but scant ■monetary value, but it does express sentiments which are of value ot the *one who gave them utterance. Literary theft is not ne#, usually it is not so boldly put forth as the present example. Indeed, at times it is most difficult to tell who first thought tiut some .idea, as it may appeal to two persons simultaneously. Often the ablest authors have been wrongfully accused of plagiarizing and seemed to have furnished reasons for the acusation, for there may be deadly parallels and similarities, both regarded as proofs of theft. It Is well for the army of Indiana authors to be able to prove originality as well as merit.

Names • A sign of general advancement is seen in the action of the United States Georgraphic Board in changing th ename of Dead Horse Inlet, between Barren Island and Plumb Beach, Brooklyn, to Garritson Inlet Citizens of the locality petitions*! such action. Some names are so musical or so appropriate that they 'Will not be changed, but seem destined to last as long as the language is spoken or until tradition dies out, while others deserve short life only. The Indian names of America are more popular than ever; but ugly ones such as Dead Horse Inlet must go. Sing Sing is now Ossining. Nearer home, Turkey Lake is Wawasee, while Tombstone, Ariz.. and Dead Man’s Gulch will sooner or later be changed when culture and reflection reach those localities. The village of B. in Clinton County, Indiana, is no longer on the map, or if it i3 there it has a name Mid not a distinguishing mark only. It is a peculiarity of human nature that the name by which a place becomes known does not seem odd to those who use it; Ypsilanti, Kokomo, Xenia, and a score more could be mentioned. In Michigan and Wisconsin almost every county bears an Indian name, and after the pronunciation is mastered, no further thought is given to it. No change will be made in them, for as the Indian vanishes the traditions grow and the name acquirse a kind of romance by association. Future historians may attribute a greater mixture in races than really occurs, even in Indiana, for besides Indian names, all of the European countries are represented and so are some South American ones. In Miami County appears Mexicb, Peru and Chili, but Young America is in the county of Cass, with Logansport as county seat. Russia’s Latest Now that Russia has invited all Americans to stay home after April 20, it is not amiss to tell her that she is so poor very few, if any, Americans care to visit that latest land of alleged freedom and soviets. It is reliably reported that the Russian government has a reserve of sixty million dollars in gold, besides a lot of jewels and works of art in store, and w’lmn the population of the country is considered, there is one dollar reserve for every three people, to say nothing of stolen and confiscated works of art, jewelry and treasure. It might be well to contrast the United States' condition now and note the comparison. Just recently the new assay office of the Government was completed In New York. Its vaults are all underground, built in the rock after a number of years’ labor, and extend five stories deep. In them can be stored $5,000,000,000 in gold and it is probable that much of the space will be required. * In years gone by, under the czar, Russia was open to almost any one. Only foreign merchants of Jewish religion were excluded, but now Americans are all barred, either as undesirable or dangerous. How soon changes come! America was the torch of freedom, Russia was the land of serfs and repression. 'Then when the old government of Russia was destroyed, those who take its place pass judgment on a people that have endured alpaost a century and a half as a free nation and, so far as it is concerned, find it necessary the old imperial barriers, higher and more autocratic than ideas emanate with newlymade rulers.

RUTH LOVES SPIRITED HORSES But Likes to Ride 'Em as They Do Gut West

It Is hardly necessary for Kuth Roland to declare her love for horses or her belief In their affection for her. The picture screen proclaims It in most of the eight serials she has produced for Pathe, including her latest, '‘The Avenging Arrow.” There are no better nor more daring riders among the native Americans or Mexicans of the cattlfe country who are employed as “extras/ in her company. Every hojieman knows what this means—thorough understanding and confidence between horse and rider. During her recent visit to New York Miss Roland remarked that what she missed more than anything else during her unaccustomed vacation was her daily horseback exercise either “in the picture” or by way of recreation. That means riding as they ride in the West— Mexican saddles long stirrups and plenty of intiative for the horse regardless of consequences I Miss Roland, of course, is an accomplished rider according to the fashionable mode in the East and abroad, but finds it comparatively tame and unsatisfying—as is plainly indicated on the screen. . -I- -I- -I----ON VIEW TODAY. Among the photoplays on view today, are: “The Woman in His House” at the Circle; "If I Were King" at the Ohio; “Lying Lips" at the Colonial; "it isn’t Being Done This Season” at the Alhambra ; “What Every Woman Knows” at Mister Smith’s; “Beau Revel” at the Isis and "Fighting BiU”at the Regent. -I- -I- -IMOVIE NEWS.

A roint of interest to he noticed in the movie, “What Every Woman Knows,” which is now being shown at Mister Smith's, is the richness of detail and the care in which the actors were chosen to play the roles In this delightful comedy by Sir James M.

KEEPING HOUSE WITH THE HOOPERS

(The Hoopers, an average American family of five, living in a suburban town, on a limited income, will tell the readers of the Daily Times bow the many present-day problems of the home are solved by working on the budget that Mrs. Ifoopcr hns evolved and found practical. Follow theta daily in an Interesting review of t-elr home life and learn to meet tbe conditions of the high cost of living with them.) FRIDAT. Mrs. Hooper was almost tempted to remain away from the club today, because she was so anxious to get ot the making of Helen’s new clothes. Rut aside from the fa'< that she had invited the bride to come to the club with her, j in anticipation of having her become a : member as soon ns possible, so that she ; would feel that there was entertainment and sociability for her in tfV neighborhood, and that she would not have always to go back to the city sos it, Mrs. Hooper made rather a point of not missing the meetings unless something serious prevented. The discussion among the mothers and the oilier women interested in the health of the community was whether it was really necessary for children to have 1 whooping cough and measles and mumps and these so-called diseases of youth aB It has been believed for so long. With the month of April has come an i epidemic of whooping cough, that was ( following one of measles, which has claimed many small victims in Mayfield, and which had threatened at one time to close the schools for several weeks. It was the contention on the part of several of the women that since beginning in January and lasting almost to the first of May, there was each year this period of children’s epidemics that something ought to be done to keep down the number of rases or perhaps devise some means by w(ilch the epidemics would cease to appear in their midst. “There’s no use of our trying to do anything about It,” announced one woman in a tone of finality. ‘Children al-w-ays have these things, and they always will, and the best way is just to let them have mumps aud measles and whooping cough as soon as possible and then they will be all through with them while they are young." “But that Is an old fashioned Idea,” objected another member of the club. “We are being told now that there is ; really no reason why one's children i should ever have those diseases. If they j are taken proper care of and protected j by an Intelligent mother.” "Os course, there Is always the danger J from accidental exposure that even the | most careful mother is powerless to j guard against at all times,” said Mrs | Hooper when she was appealed to by | the chairman of the section, “but I am j

Can you tell me the legend of the so-called lucky stones? • J. F. G. A. The legend of tho Lucky Stones of Virginia is that many centuries ago In the Blue Ridge Mountains, a band of fairfes worked chiseling out these little crosses, which were tokens of good luck, and which they carried with them on their travels through the world. Un tho day of the crucifixion, however, the grief of those fairies was so Intense that they left the earth RDd the scene of tliir labors, and have never been seen since. Many people, however, still find the litt’e crosses near the scene of the fairies’ labors.

WHEN A GIRL MARRIES A New Serial of Young Married Life

Hardly had I presuaded Valerie Cosby tot" keep the blue robe she thought so gorgeous <when a second intruder burst Into my apartment. This was a trim French maid, who came in declaring that she couldn't help it—they had phoned Monsieur from s he office and he was going back to town, that he’d be right up and that the saints were her witness she was not to blame. All this in French — voluble, excited. | “You understand French, of course?” asked Valerie, turning to me with a slow smile that crinkled up her eyes at the i corners and narrowed them to living, .black-lashed slits. Then to the maid: j “It Is very good, Helene, that Monsieur returns. Otherwise I might have been very lonely this evening. ! She was ail eagerness, as she had been * over the robe, but soon she lapsed into ' h p r tone of thick, creamy Indolence. I “I must go. Poor old Lane is always , so cross if I’m not all dressed up when he comes. So I'll have to hurry out of | these rags I traveled in, and make myself [ fine for him. He’s such an old dear, I isn’t he?” | ”He's a wonderful man. Every one j says so,” I agreed. j “Oh. yes. I’d never have married any i hut a big man—a power. I admire power, j I wouldn't be the wife of a man who wasn’t at the top—one of the leaders. I He’ll love you for spoiling me so. I do already And Mrs. Cosby added lni "but I’ll expect you to keep jit up.” t | It was time for me to pay Mrs. O’Cal- , lahan and hurry away in turn. For I also must be “fine” when my husband came home. But all the way to the hotel nnd all the while I was dressing I was thinking uneasily of Valerie Cosby and the blue robe. Now the blue rohe was gone I began to regret It. Suddenly It seemed very desirable. To give away a possession so gorgeous when I hadn’t any other pretty things began to look silly. I wondered how I would explain to Tc.aa Mason. After all, I had been very high handed | with property I’d never acknowledged was mine. In the midst of my nervous cogitations in came Jim. I turned to him suddenly with a mischievous desire to know what he would say and do. And I began by blurting out: * ".Tim. I'm rid of that blue robe of Tom Mason's at last.” “Rid of it?” said Jim in a puzzled j tone that might have angered me if I’d stopped to let It. “Why did you take ■ r -t of Tom's apartment if you Widn’t want It? All you had to do was leave it there.” “I didn’t bring It I thought, of ! course, you'd jack It, Jim.” “Nope; I didn’t. Probably old lady , O'Callahan’s the guilty party. What (lid : you do to get ‘rid’ of it —give it to her?” | “I gave it to Valerie Cosby,” I said, : eajoying my effect to the utmost. "But j I was thinking I wish I'd known.” “To Valerie Cosby? Quit stringing ns, Anna, and tell a fellow wjiat yon feci like doing tonight that isn't too strenuous after n previous night's sleep that was three hours long.” “Let's have dinner up here,” I suggested. “But first I’ll tell you about Mrs. Cosby and the robe.” I plunged Into my story and Jttn ; listened in amazement that expanded to delight. i “By Jove, Anne, you are a good fellow he cried, coming over to seize both I my hands in hie and swing me around in a little triumphal dance. "If this I doesn’t get us Jn right with Lane Cosby | tie has the blood of a fish—which he j hasn't. Von might baTe worn that robe ! to the part.y yourself, yon know—and now jg course#Mr*. C. will deck herseir out In it. Well have to try to get you something Just as handsome.” ‘What shall I wear, Jitn?” I asked delighted at Uls interest. “Well, first we’ll summon a waiter—and then we’ll have a quiet little dinner at home like old times and talk It over. Does that suit you. Frlr.cess Anne?” My face tingled at the old title, and when I put my hands up to my fore- ! head. I could feel a little pulse -thud- ! thudding very fast. After all. Jim 1s I still my man, and no matter how he j hurts me he can make me happy too. "By Jove!" cried Jim suddenly, “1 have it. Princess Anno—my lilac Princess. That's how you'll go—as the Lilac | Lady.

PUSS IN BOOTS JPv.

By David Cory."

. Well, the next morning when Puss woke up he looked out of the window and there ( stood the little cake tree, which I told ybu about in the last story, standing in the yard, and it was Just loaded down with frosted cakes. "Well, I’m glad it wasn't a dream,” said little Puss to himself, for it all seemed so strange to think that from a little twig should grow' such a wonderful tree. But then, you know, this world is full of wonderful things, only many of us don’t believe In fairies and so these wonderful things never happen to them. Wolf, Puss set out prettty soon on his Journey, after he had bidden the pretty girl good-by, and after a while, not so very long, he heard a voice singing: Over the river and far away. When done is the busy, toiling day. A maiden stands on a hilltop there R itb a star of gold on her forehead fair. “Who are you?” asked little Puss Junior, and he looked all around, but he saw no one. And then the voice commenced to sing again: “But who shall travel that distance far ! To find the maid with the bright gold star? j Only he whose boots are made ; By two little elves in the forest glade.” i And then Puss looked about him, but ! still he saw nothing, only, all of a sud--1 den a golden shadow darted through the j tree tops. It was that little yellow bird | whose name I shall tell you some time. I "Come back! Come back!” cried Fuss, but the little bird only replied, far away ■ in the distance: "Only he whose hoots are made ; By two littie elves who live in the glade.” i “Why, she must mean me,” thought Puss, for he suddenly remembered how ,he had gotten his wonderful | hoots. So he set off at once for that : far-away land where the star maiden I stood at eventide, and by and by It j grew late and still he had a long way to go. But after awhile, as he looked toward the hilltops in the west, he saw the figure of a girl standing against misty, yellow clouds. So he hurried on, and you may well believe he went fast, for his boots were magic ones, you know, and covered the ground In very quick time. And pretty soon he came to the foot of the bill, on the top of which stood the lovely maiden with the gold star on her forehead. So up he climbed, and as he went higher and higher he head her voice singing this song: “Little hoy baby In cradle so deep, The Evening Star’s singing you fast to sleep. Little girl baby on mother’s soft breast. The Evening Star's singing you gently to rest. Reek-a-by, rock a-by, cuddle down deep. Dreams of the Star Maiden coins when you sleep.” < And In the next story 111 tell you what Tuss said to the beautiful maiden with the gold star or. her forehead.— Copyright, 1921. (To Be Continued.)

Astrologers read this as an unfortunate day, for Venus is in a strongly adverse aspect. Mars also has malefic power. Caution should guide dealers in millinery and women's wear, for there may be heavy losses. The stars that rule the fashions foreshadow many changes that will tend toward conventional modes. i This is read as an unlucky wedding day, for the bride of this configuration is likely to'be vain and selfish in her attitude toward life. Persons whose birthdate It is may be anxious over business affairs during the coming year, but prosperity is assured if the proper care is taken. The health should be watched.
