Ma Shank stood up in his car during the triumphal march, bowing and smiling and shouting greetings to friends and acquaintances. most of whom he called by name. The Howe band In frbnt of the Avenue club rested but once whole evening. That was to draw deep breaths In preparation for an extra ambitious effort when Shank should begin his speech. SHANK GETS A CROWD ANY WAV. Col. John Fox presided at the Shank meeting and several speakers were heard before the ex mayor was introduced. The street and lawns were packed with a throng which extended to the limit of hearing. When Mr. Shank arose to speak band concerts were launched within and xvithi out the Howe club around the corner. They continued throughout the evening. The Howe clubroom was comfortably filled with loyal Jewett men and a -small ; crowd of music lovers lent ear to the band below stairs. “I have often said that the News Jewett ring was the rottenest political organization on earth,” Shank shouted above the din. “and this disgraceful business tonight should prove it beyond a doubt. They bribed and corrupted our bands and now they are purposely interrupting [ our meeting. They do well to call anybody uncultured.” When a threatening murmur ran through the crowd anil it became apparent that the situation contained the seed of genuine trouble, Mr Shank has tened to tell n funny #tnry. His speecu was devoted chiefly to the need for Immediate tax reduction and a denunciation of the ' scientific aud unlifting” methods of the police under Mayor Jewett The Shank crowd was composed equally of whites and blacks. The Howe gathering was all black. t “They figure on winning a veneer of respectability out of the fact that Tom Howe was once a minister," said Mr. Shank. “And on the other hand they've got him practising smoking to make i hit with others. Jl ST PLAIN LU tV SHANK. “He never was Tom Howe In the In- | dianupolls News or elsewhere until this gang took him by the coattails and dragged him into politics. Ho also was l’rof. Thomas C. Howe, with a train of . initials after his name. I have been Lew Shank to every man and woman in town for forty-nine years. I was I>ew Shank when I was mayor and 1 have been ever since and always will be. I have never sailed under false colors.” The Shank speech had been concluded, but the crowd had not dispersed when j Mayor Jewett arrived at the club around the corner to rescue the fortunes of his ' candidate. “A great mistake may be made here," he lamented aloud. "If you nominate Lew Shank for mayor it means a Democratic mayor of Indianapolis anl you , colored men know what that means." He excitedly urged the negroes to unite against such a calamity and to nominate I Professor Howe. i “You know what Joe Bell did to you." Jewett shouted. “There were policemen every few steps up and down the avenue They wouldn't let colored men loaf bn the sidewalks above here on the avenue' because white people on the Riverside Dark cars would, see them and be offended. I "That Is what will happen to you again If you nominate Lew Shank on the Republican tb-ket for LEW SHANK SHALL NOT BE MAYOR OF INDIANAPOLIS AGAIN 1" “How come, sissy?" asked a youth at the mayor's elbow. “Who's going to count him out?” Laughter greeted this sally, but the mayor did not answer. Jeers and cheers Intermingled throughout the Jewett speech, which came to an untimely end. BOOT PULLED,

BAND PAID OFF. Despite the presence of all the best minds of the Jewett ring someone pulled a boner and paid off the bands. While the mayor was sonring to a peroration u colored lad came pushing through the crowd to the band. “Did yo’ get dat Jack, big bey?” called an ebony-hued horn blower. “Ah got da dough, let’s go I” “Hot dog,” exulted the questioner. Approval xxas manifested by the other musiela is anil without further ado the hand, which had occupied a place directly in front of the speaker, picked up anil left. Shank supporters, drawn to the scene by curiosity, also chose tills time to depart and the mayor hastily closed. I’rof. Hoxve had been scheduled for a speech inside the club, according to an announcement by the chairman, but he had not arrived by 10:30 and shortly thereafter the corner xvas deserted.

TECH STUDENTS ADVERTISE PL A Y ‘Moilie, ’ Performing Horse, Disports for Senior Crowd. In order to stimulate interest In the sale of tickets for “The Royal Family,” the Tech senior play, the advertising committee held a celebration during the lunch periods Tuesday. The center of interest was “Moilie,” a calico horse, manned by two senior boys. This horse was unusually intelligent and executed several jigs to the weird tones of the “Imperial Band,” a portion of the regular band disguised in freak costumes. A regular ringmaster carried on a dialogue with “Moilie.” Frequently the ringmaster would introduce speakers, who gave short speeches urging the students, who were crowded about, to buy tickets for the play. Another feature of the program was a parade with “Moilie,” the “Imperial Band,” several of the cast in brilliant costumes and many seniors. Other stunts of the ticket campaign were posters with photograph heads of the actors and grotesque bodies drawn on them. A large signboard showing tlie Murat Temple on one end and a Tech student walking toward it on the other uid. was erected by the flag pole. The figure of the student was so constructed that it could be moved toward the Murat with an Increase of the sales of seats. Over the walk In front of the ticket window was suspended a large key. which was supposed to be the key to the Murat. It will belong to Tech if the sale of seats reaches four thousand, which would mean that both matinee and night performances are entirely sold out. The sale of seats by Tuesday was approximately three thousand. The class expects to sell out entirely, which would set a record that has never been reached by any previous senior class.

IRON IS THE MASTER PRINCIPLE OF THE BLOOD and blood is life. It is the iron in your blood that carries oxygen to your brain. Without iron your brain gets no oxygen. Without oxygen your brain becomes dull and heavy; it cannot think right; YOU MAKE BAD DECISIONS; DO FOOLISH THINGS; YOUR INTELLECT IS POOR; YOUR memory often fails —no matter hoxv smart you may be by nature, in your weakened physical and mental condition. YOU ARE certainly NO MATCH for the STRONG, KEEN. CLEAR HEADED MAN with plenty of iron in his blood. Although you may give two men the same fire arms or sxvords in a battle, the strong, vigorous fellows always has a decided advantage over a xveak. tircd-out opponent.
