NINTH WARD TO HEAR ROBISON Tom Greenlee to Preside at McKinley Club Meeting Tonight. Ninth -ward workers and followers of Edward J. Robison, candidate for the Republican nomination for mayor, will stage a meeting for him tonight at the McKinley Club, 2217 East Michigan street, and indications poitft to another large meeting such as have characterized the Robison gatherings in the primary campaign. Tom Greenlee, former assistant clerk In the city engineer's office, who resigned from office when pressed by the city hall organization to support Mr. Howe, will preside at the meeting and in a brief address will unfold the story of alleged coercion of city employes to support the organization's choice. Speakers in addition to Mr. Robison will be ex-Mayur Charles A. Bookwalter, Dr. Amelia K. Keller and Fred Bonifield, an attorney. In addition to the McKinley Club meeting Mr. Robison will speak at six meetings, Sixteenth street and Ashland avenue, 954 West North street, S4O East Tenth street. Eleventh and Brook streets, 1702 North Illinois street, and Merrill and Meridian streets. In his speeches last night, one of them at 2400 West Michigan street, Mr. Robi■on showed where the city was losing from $40,000 to $50,000 a year in the collection of ashes alone. “It cost them $94,775.50 to collect ashes last year and add to that the loss of revenue to the city from wagons formerly used by contractors, the new equipment and depreciation, interest on the bonds issued to buy the new equipment, and you will have the cost of collecting ashes alone at $140,000, so you see that when they rejected a bid of SB9 ,500 for the same work they lost between $40,000 and $50,00 to the city,” Mr. Robison asserted. “They rejected the bid of $**9,500 claiming that it wa3 too high, but it has cost more than that to operate this department under the municipal system. Why, last year they spent SOOO,OOO on municipal street repairing, ash and garbage hauling and I know what I say when I declare that competent contractors would do the work better for $200,000 less than it Is costing the city,” he added. Archibald M. Hall who was a schoolmate of Mrs. Thomas C. Howe, the opponent of Mr. Robison, spoke in behalf o. Mr. Robison at the meeting. He pointed out that Mr. Howe was scholastic and polished in university training, but it needed a business man to run a city like Indianapolis. He added that I’rofessor Howe, after his graduation at Butler, was sent to the University of Berlin by a benefactor and after years of study returned and occupied a chair of German language at Butler which was provided by this same benefactor and later through the "influence of the benefiactor be was named president of the institution.

PUSS IN BOOTS JR. By David Cory. ■ Well, when Puss woke up next morning in the funny little house, where the Potato Masher mashed the potatoes all by Itself, the Old Maid Tea Kettle boiled the water and made the tea, and the Feather Duster kept the house as neat as a silver pin, he ate his breakfast and then, putting on his cap with the magic flaming feather, he started off once more upon his Journey of adventure. By and by, after a while, he came to a beautiful bay. And as Puss paused to look around, he saw an old fisherman sitting on a bench mending his net. “Hello, little Sir Cat,’’ he said, as Puss drew near. “Moor your little hulk 'londside o' me an’ I’ll spin you a yarn.” And then he began to tell how many hundred years ago all the land around about was covered with a thick forest. Then came the great giant Cormoran, who was 18 feet high and 3 yards wile, who was killed by Jack the Giant Killer. Then came the Small People, who cut down most of the forest and built cottages for themselves. One day an enchanter asked the head man for a drink of awter and the man replied by making a hole In the ground. And when all of a sudden a little spring of water bubbled up through the hole, and pretty soon a stream burst the whole land was drowned, and only the high mountain remained above the water. But the Small People who were burled under the water didn't die, but lived on Just the same, waiting for the great enchanter to return and lift the spell, and forth that swelled to a river, and soon the land to rise again with all the people on it. And when the old fisherman finished his story he said to Puss: “I will take you with me In my boat and you can see

LECTURER WILL TELL YOU HOW TO FURNISH A HOME To Cover Every Phase of House Decorating in Talks. Does your wall paper shriek at yon, or is your furniture so arranged that you have to climj) over or crawl under it in passing through the rooms? Are your walls covered with gaudy pictures, regardless of artistic effect, or have you a few well-chosen ones placed where they wiil look best ? Ross Crane, head of the extension department of the Chicago Art Institute, and originator of the Better Homes Institute, is coming to Indianapolis to deliver a series of lectures on the right and wrong way to dress up a home. The program, which is to be given in Tomlinson Hall under the auspices of the Indianapolis Real Estate Board, May 3,4, 5 and 6, will cover every phase of home-making, from the vacant lot to the completely furnished modern home. The institute embodies a series of nine lectures, each of which will be Illustrated or accompanied by a practical demonstration of the subject treated. One of the most interesting of the reries is Mr. Crane's lecture on "Art vs. Aunt Matilda," in which he points out and actually shows that a charming home does not necessarily mean a lavish expense or a carload of bric-a-brac. In this talk Mr. Crane uses an especially constructed portable room which first he clutters haphazard with furniture, draperies and other furnishings, only to toss the entire lot away and show how the decorating should be done to attain the most artistic effect. It is said he eliminates enough furnishings from the single room to equip an ordinary sized apartment.

MAY ASK SESSION ON DISARMAMENT Congress Expected to Favor World Conference. WASHINGTON, April 22.—Passage of a resolution authorizing the President to call a world disarmament conference probably will follow enactment 1 of the Knox declaration of peace, as one or the main features of the Harding foreign relations program. The initiative on the disarmament resolution will be taken in the House, assurances already having been received that such action will not be considered an intrusion into any foreign negotiations the President and his Secretary of State have planned. As an indication of the Administration's apparent decision for the early passage of a disarmament resolution Secretaries Hughes, Weeks, Denby and noover will appear before the House Foreign Affairs Committee next iveek to give their views on this question. The resolution of Representative Rogers, Massachusetts, will be the basis of the hearings. “I desire to emphasize” Rogers said, “that this is not a pacifist plan of dis-
