IT REALLY IS a shame that any preparations to prevent stealing at a Republican primary should be regarded as necessary! THE ONLY LIVING former mayor with whom a certain newspaper Is not now finding fault Is a former mayor whom It used to class as the worst of the lot. IT WOULD APPEAR from the plea of the gaa company that It made a slight mistake when It refused to sell its coke at a price In competition with others! THERE ARE some of us who will agree that Mr. Denny showed con. siderable courage when he undertook to “catechise” a favorite candidate of the mysteriously owned newspaper! IT DOES NOT make a great deal of difference when Mr. Wright resigns from the State highway commission, but the taxpayers who pro/ided the “rotary fund” will breathe easier when he is gone! MAYOR JEWETT'S explanation of the garbage plant might mean something if he would tell how much it has cost to operate it in the lust two years instead of in the first seven months! PRESIDENT HARDING says “it little matters what flag we owe our allegiance to on the North American continent,” \but he also urges a peace with Germany in which our Canadian allies cannot Join. IF we are to believe our Republican brethren, one of their candidates for mayor is backed by the “king gamblers of the city,” from which Mayor Charles W. Jewett solemnly assures us he has "driven out all the gamblers ! ” THOSE CITIZENS who are forsaking the political campaign for the purpose of assisting in filling the community chest are also a part of the citizenship that is not good because it is not “uniting in the support of Mr. Howe.”
The Responsibility! If Samuel Lewis Shank is nominated for mayor of Indianapolis tomorrow as it is today conceded he is likely to be, the Republicans must place the responsibility wholly on the shoulders of the "thirty-five men” whom Mayor Jewett says brought Thomas C. Howe into the race. Edward J. Robison was the only opponent of Shank and had started to build an organization including the anti-administration members of the party with the administration members. He had laid a broad foundation for his campaign, accumulated sufficient funds to finance it and had ascertained to his own satisfaction that his candidacy was in no way objectionable either to the Republicans who had stood with Mayor Jewett throughout his administration, or to those who opposed him. Robison had every reason to believe that he could obtain the united support of that part of the Republican party which was opposed to Shank. He had not been connected with the Jewett administration and none of the resentment of Jewett’s failures could be directed toward him. He had left no sore spots by participation in previous fights and he was the logical candidate to carry the standard of the part of the Republican party that would not support Shank. And then, for no reason which has been set forth even to the last day of the campaign, Thomas C. Howe was inducted into the campaign to divide the opposition to Shank and gratify the ambitions of a newspaper to rule or ruin. Mayor Jewett and Mr. Howe have both admitted publicly that Mr. Howe did not enter the campaign of his own volition. They concede that be was drafted to make the fight. The answer to the question of who drafted him lies in the list of men who have supported him. The reason he was drafted into a fight where his presence could not help split the opposition to Shank has been studiously avoided throughout the campaign. It is either one of two things—the men who brought him into this fight wanted Shank nominated in order to enhance Democratic chances of winning, or they foresaw the collapse of their own power in the Republican camp with the nomination of Mr. Robison and they were determined to the Republican organization or wreck it. K Indianapolis people are today well aware of the Identity of the persons Aid institution responsible for the bringing into this fight of Mr. Howe. Mayor Jewett says he was induced to get into the fight at a meeting \rbfd irty-five men.” Mr. Howe says one man induced him to become a The public knows that the Indianapolis News not only brought Hwe into the race, but crammed him down the throats or the organlzaHn workers of the Republican party. Including the swollen throat of Mayor PKxvett, who, In a moment of anger publicly declared that Howe was “not my choice.” Os the disgraceful way in which the Howe campaign has been conducted none are in ignorance. First, a lying effort was made to create the impression that Robison’s followers were all flocking to Howe while the deflection was in reality from the city organization to Robison. Finally, as a climax to the slanderous and hypocritical campaign of falsehoods and vilification an attempt was made to brand the great majority of the Republicns of Indianapolis who had refused to accept Howe as their "savior” with the mark of “indecent citizens.” For one week the people of Indianapolis who would not surrender their constitutional right to vote for whom they pleased In a primary heard themselves maligned as a group of citizens intent upon bringing on Indianapolis a "fatal calamity”—"ruin”—“defamation of the fair name of our city.” Led by the Indianapolis News, an institution that deceived the people of this community for eight years as to its ownership and pleaded that an oath taken before God wa3 not binding because it was attested by a mere notary public, the Republican organization and the Jewett administration members have attempted to browbeat and coerce the people of this community in a manner that makes the character of Simon Legree saintly by comparison. On this unholy combination of a newspaper and an administration In the control of a party organization rests the responsibility for what will happen tomorrow. If it succeeds by coercion and fraud, in nominating its hand-picked candidate for mayor, it can only be at the loss of thousands of Republican votes for ths nominee. If, in Its failure, Samuel Lewis Shank is nominated for mayor, that nomination will be due solely and wholly to the fact that while pretending to oppose Shank these political hypocrites insisted on defeating Robison even though they nominated Shank.
True Values The good old times have arrived and the figures are here, too, to prove it. A recent shipment of fur from the Northwest to St. Louis paid the trapper sufficient to liquidate all but 7 cents of the freight bill, and he had all his work for nothing. This Is hard on the trapper and preparer of the skins, for surely they are worthy of some reward. The Incident brings to light, for the first time in several years, the great fact of the relations o£ things in general to each other. In times of peace this occurs more frequently than in war, for In strife the question gives place to more urgent calls for necessities. With war over it is indeed a problem to make things sufficiently relative to provide a return of the value of commodities. Years ago there was a period when cattle shipped to market did not pay their freight It Is a fact that in big cities some starve while only a comparatively short distance away plenty abounds, and even goes to waste. The question of coordinating things is a big one. The school boy who is so important in his own estimation that his services are invaluable, the politician whose promises are impossible and the spendthrift all alike lack a sense of proportion. Likewise a railroad rate that absorbs the value of the thing shipped Is out of all proportion. The Importance to a community and the self-estimated value of a man’s services are likewise out of proportion, but happily that value Is not always expressed In words nor Is it insisted upon commercially. Happy is the person who sees a dollar no larger than It Is, and does not hold himself higher than his true value.
WHEN A GIRL MARRIES A New Serial of Young Married Life ‘By Ann Lisle*—
chapter ceil. At about 5 o’clock it stopped raining. I decided to forsake my lonely big chair In the lobby of the Inlet House and go out tor a walk. It seemed to me that the poker players must be tired and headachy now from their long confinement in Lane Cosby's room and that Valerie or even Jim might like to go with me for a breath of air. So 1 hurried around to the door and tapped gently. No answer. Then I rapped smartly, and after a minute or two Lane Cosby came to the door. His coat was off and bis sleeves rolled above his elbows. The room was heavy with smoke. Every man but Jim had removed his coat. Valerio was in their midst, narrow-eyed and nonchalant, smoking a cigarette and ruffling the edges of her cards with a slim forefinger. There was a tray of sandwiches and ginger ale on a side table. “It's cleared,” I announced, with waning enthusiasm. “I thought you might not have noticed it. So I'm calling your attention to It. Who’s for a walk witu me?” Before any one else could answer Jim looked up, the crease between his eyebrows folding in and the brows themselves twitching as I'd nover before seen them do. His fingers beat a tattoo on the table, bis shoulders hunched—his gambling posture. “My wife doesn’t know poker—or understand its charm,” he explained jerkily, while I stood humiliated at having him explain me to l„e three strange men who were in the room. ‘‘The game’s not over, Anne. . . Probably won't be —till when did we say? Oh, yes, 6:30. Run along, child, and take your walk." When I got to my room I fouud that I no longer cared to tnke a walk. “Os course, I can’t go out.” I told myself, walking over to the window and stretching my eyes wide and holding them fixed and solemn on a slim, white, spire-topped church far away. “How could I go out in the wet without rubbers? And X haven't any. So, of course, I can't go out. None of us can possibly today.” Then I flung myself down on the bed to rest for the evening. But I had no physical weariness from which to rest, and no refuge from m.v own thoughts. All day long no one had paid the least attention to me. 1 simply had not counted. That dreadful breakfast in Va lerle Cosby’s stuffy, untidy room; my lunoh alone; the dragging hours. How different it would have been if I'd stayed with Betty! Betty would have thought of me. 11l and suffering she would have been a kinder hostess than the spoiled beauty a few doors away.

Still a seething question Is the silhouette in the minds of aU. Full or narrow, which is it to be? The answers seem to be that it la entirely a matter of pergonal choice. Which of the two suits you best? Take that one, Damn Fashion answers kindly, for once In the history of modes of the moment. Some of the models which I wag recently shown by the personal representatives of Worth, Groult and Oheruit had full skirts of regular Victorian propor tlons, reaching to the ground. One model from Groult might have been worn by Queen Victoria herself, and was made of black taffeta, with a high collar and tiny tight sleeves on an extremely tight fitting bodice. Tho skirt was very full and fell below the Instep. A second glance showed that the skirt, however, wag formed of a number of scullops, which reached to the knees. One large rosette of French blue crepe de chine wag the only touch of color. The French are very fond of black, and all black gowns or all white, with touches of black, are the rule for the fashionable Parislenne. The American woman this summer will not be governed by thts law, and models designed for wear on this side of the ocean are coming in delicate pastel shades. Many of the gowns were cut on sack lines, with very long, bell-like sleeves reaching the knuckles of the hand, and finished at the neck with tiny collars, closed wl'th narrow black ribboDS. Dark and black frocks had bright golden embroidery on the collar, cuffs, pockets and on the part of the dress above the string girdle. In length all these garments were either extremely long or very short, and, Just as we refused last year to wear these above-the-knee French models, so we will again modify these new extremes. There is not much likelihood of the very long skirts making a long stay with us, all fashion experts agree. The circular skirt is having a stubborn fight to make itself a place In the tailored models, but is not looked upon with favor. Embroidery on afternoon gowns and evening frocks is making Its way surely if hesitatingly. The blnck shadow stlchery is particularly noticeable on several of the smart black and white creations. This is shown in the skirt of my Frances gown In the sketch in stripes of black floss embroidered on the white canton crepe. The upper portton of this dress is made of black ebarmeuse, of which the wrong side Is used, giving the dull finish prominence. Vestec. collar and cuffs are of white organdie, end the girdle Is of black, white and silver. A narrow band of black aatln join* the collar and falla below the white orfandle'xuff.

was almost funny. And there would have been Tony, too—kind, unselfish, patient, dependable Tony with his steady, ice-blue eyes under heavy brows that didn’t twitch. I brought myself back with a start. With whom was I contrasting Tony? Then X must have dozed, for all of a sudden I heard Jim’s voice crying: “Haven’t you started dressing yet? It’s 7 and dinner will be in half an hour. Val left us an hour ago. Now try to look half-way decent, Anne.” So I got up and tried. But I’d on*r my old gray and rose dress —and a feeling of being nbused because I hadn’t been given enough notice to send down to Wickham's for the stunning lace and jet dress they could probably have finished up in a hurry. And w-hen we got downstairs there was Valerie in a slim, girlish thing—white brocade draped softly over a girdle of black velvet. She was pale, but crimson-lipped, and her hair had an enormous amber comb in its black waves. She looked like anew hybrid flower —a cross between gardenia and poinsettia. “How dear you look—like strawberry ice cream!” she cried smoothly. That made me very conscious of the contrast we presented—ice cream and flowers. All through the dinner she was smoothly sweet to me and creainlly deferential to her husband and' dashingly brilliant when she turned to Jim the many-faceted nature she chose him to see. I had a bad time of it holding my end. I was dull. X couldn't manage n gracious manner, My head ached and ideas wouldn't come. Presently that ordeal ended like a bad dream. Then dancing. I had partners, but they didn't matter. In the foreground of my consciousness was the fact that I hadn’t seen Jim and Valeria since the third or fourth dance. I kept going till midnight Then I found Lane Cosby and told him I had a headache and wus going to bed. “Little Val was tired and went long ago,” he replied, Indulgently. “Then you don't think I'm rude.” I said, gratefully. “Not a bit of it. Run along.” So I ran along. When 1 got upstairs it occurred to me that It might be only decent to stqp at Valerie's door and see if there was anything I could do for her. I turned down the corridor, stopped at her room and knocked ever so lightly. No answer. "Mrs. Cosby—lt's Anne. Tan I do anything for you?” I whispered. Still no answer. In sort of stupor I turned the knob. It gave. The door opened and I stepped over the threshold. The room was empty. (To Be Continued.)

KEEPING HOUSE WITH THE HOOPERS
fThe Hoopers, an average American family of live, living in a suburban town, on a limited income will tell the renders of the Dally Times how the nany present day problems of the heme arc solved by working on the budget that Mrs Hooper has evolved and found practical. Follow them dallv n an Interesting review of t-eir borne life and learn to meet tb* cundltlons of the high cost of living with them.) MONDAY. Monday In tho Hooper home resolved Itself, for the time being. Into a day of dismantling ns well as eleanlng and straightening up, for with the passing of winter came the necessity of putting away clothes and rearranging furniture and doing the countless small things that go so far toward transforming the home In which one lives Into n season* able" dwelling place. Mrs. Hooper found that If she did a certain amount of thts work every Monday during the spring, ■ then, with tho first summer days the bot.se was fresh and crisp In Its warm weather garb without the confusion and annoyance of what was once termed tho “annual house cleaning.” The transformation was so gradual in the Hooper household that the family scarcely, realized except for the general air of “newness" that anything unusual had been going on In the way of eitra housekeeping effort. This was one of the secrets of Mrs. Hoopefs great success as a housekeeper—and home maker. She worked so quietly and effectively and regularly that her home was like a smoothly-oiled machine running on from day to day with no Jarring or Jolting or breaking down to disturb the lives of those In whoso welfare she was so vitally Interested. The suggestion that her life was a monotonous one because she had made a routine business of housekeeping Instead of a hectic nightmare was always refuted by Mrs. Hooper on the ground that If this were true then all the activities of life were monotonous and that men had alwsys led monotonous existences In the business world where they ponder the finances for running a home. She kept In touch with the outside world as much as it was possible and the reason that more trips to the city and more pleasures beyond the confines of the home and entertaining within Us walls could not be managed, was due to the fact of a limited income and not to a time-consuming schedule that necessitated things being done every day with apparently monotonous regularity. Quiet and harmony of peace of mind, good health, and sufficient leisure to make use of all the diversions that could be fitted into the small margin of the budget for amusement were the rewards of Mrs. Hooper's acceptance of the fact that her housekeeping was a business and that the details of its daily activities must be directed in the same routine fashion as those of sn office or a shop or a factory. “You never Lave time to do anything," was the complaint of her sister-in-law. Belle, and some of her more Intimate friend* who were constantly urging her to run up to the city to do her shopping and to spend the day Idling about with
MOVIE BOSS MADE NO MISTAKE IN STARRING BETTY) Constance Binney Is a Dear—Dean Remains at Isis—Colleen Moore Is *BlincP
The movie boss knew what ha was doing when he made Betty Compson a star. This Is realized after sitting for more than an hour at the Colonial watching the work of Miss Compson In "Prisoners of Love.” You recall that Miss Compson became famous nearly over night for her work as R6se in “The Miracle Man" and for a time we lost trace of her but now she blossoms out as a star lh a movie which has a corking good idea back of the story. Miss Comson possesses an unusual type of beauty, and I take it, that It will be difficult to obtain vehicles for her which will allow the fans to see as much of her natural beauty as possible. She does not rely entirely upon her good looks to win your admiration because she can put a tear into your eye and a little cry of anguish in your throat just as Nazimova can do when she wants to. In her latest movie, Miss Compson does not overact, although the opportunity Is there. She appears to have decided that she will employ only legitimate means to obtain certain ends nnd not to rely npon the tricks of the profession to retain her position as a star. She has earned successfully the method of producing the tear by making it appear that the only thing she can do is to cry because her dear little heart Is Just breaking with sadness and before the fan knows what he is doing, he is hunting for something to brush the mist awßy from his own eyes. The story of "Prisoners of. Love” is a corking good yarn. It concerns Blanche Davis, a rich girl, whose beauty causes men to rave over her. One evening her father takes the position that she is leading men on to such a point that her actions will result in a tragedy. Blanche decides to leave home and goes West. Her father then orders his other daughter not to mention the name of Blanche. Blanche after landing In San Francisco becomes a stenographer for ft law firm and of course James Randolph, one of the firm, falls In love with her. It is mutual, but Randolph’s invalid mother asks that they do not marry during lie* lifetime. This Blanche promises and during the months of waiting Randolph's eyes seek other pretty faces. Unknown to Blanche, he falls in love with Blanche’s younger sister and the two are engaged. In the meantime Binoche's father suffers a stroke and Blanche returns to her father's home to learn the truth. She decides that her sister must be happy and so surrenders Randolph to her Bister. It Is the sympathetic manner in which Miss Compson puts over the idea of hr sufferings of heart and mind which makes the picture a rich emotional drama. Opinion ; The Colonial has every right to be proud of this picture. Miss Comp son deserves to boa star. Her support in this picture Is splendid. At the Colonial all week. —W. D. IT.
MAN IS REFORMED IN “WHEN DAWN CAME.” There are two main themes In “YVhen Dawn Came,” a movie which is now in the second day of its engagement at the Park. The first theme concerns the selfish motives of a woman in aiding a young doctor to become famous, which results In the doctor making an awful moss of thlngß. The second theme is how an unselfish blind girl raises tha "has been doctor" from the gutter und makes a man out of him. When Dr. John Brandon ia a mere doctor, doing good in the alums of a big city, he Is a real roHn. He remains such until Norma Ashley, a rich woman, comes along and influences him to give up his work in the slums to become a doctor of rich society folk. Doc gets the society fever, hits the contents of the cellars of his rich patients and becomes n degenerate. The story causes the doctor to hit "dope,” but your reviewer can see no excuse for introducing these scenes, as it adds nothing to the story. A man can go to tLe “dogs” without using "dope.” YVhen the doctor Is down in the gutter a kindly priest takes him to a quiet retreat and there Brandon is raised from the depths by the influences of a little blind girl, played by Colleen Moore. She causes the good to triumph in Brandon, which results in the doctor performing
them on aimless sightseeing Jaunts. “Why I have time to do everything,” was Mrs. Hooper's Invariable reply. “That's the beauty of tho way I work. I can do anything I like without upsetting my whole household the way you do.’ As Mrs. Hooper took down the curtains in the living room to be ready for the wash tomorrow, she decided that she would not put them Lack on these same window* but on the corresponding ones In her bedroom up stairs and that she would buy material for fresh new ones for the living room when she went In town on Thursday. The blankets from her bed were also brought down stairs to be added to the wash on the morrow. Roger's Job on Saturday would be to put a coat of paint on the bathroom, which needed freshening up badly, and for which she would buy some white enamel paint when she went shopping. While she was preparing luncheon from the left-overs of Sunday's dinner, and tha odds and ends In tho ico box, the grocery man delivered the five dozen eggs sho had ordered to be “put down” for use In December, when they would be far too expensive to be bought In numbers sufficient to supply her family.

NICE BUNCH OF CROOKS SEEN IN “MAGIC HP.” There is a lovable bunch of crooks in “The Magic Cup," which Is being used the first half of the week to exploit the beauty and talent of Constance Binney at the Alhambra. One of the lovable crooks Is called “The Patrician.' and another is “Paste" Carsons, and still another Is Abe Timbert, a pawnbroker. When tho story starts Constance Binney as Mary Malloy is working In a hotel kitchen. She owns a cup, which her mother gave her. Mary often finds It necessary to pawn the cup to obtain needed money. As the cup had a coat of arms, the members of the gang hang Ing out at the pawnshop get the idea 'f letting “The Patrician" become a bogus lord for the purpose of making Mary his granddaughter. Mary’s fortunes changes by the conspiracy In which "The Patrician" claims he is Ixird Fltzroy. She remains the victim of the gang until a newspaper reporter lauds on the scene with the real lord.

You are making sport of me.” “YVell, I'll tell you. then," said Puss. “My father’s master was the youngest of three sons. And when his father died the two older brothers received the farm . and money, but he was left nothing but a cat. So my father said to him, ’Do just what I tell you and I will make you rich. Give me a bag and have a pair of boots made for me, because of the brambles which scratch my legs, and then you will see what I will do tor you.' YVell, when the boots were made, my father put them on, and, hanging the bag about his neck, set out for a rabbit warren, where lived great numbers of rabbits. “And when he got there, be opened his bag and stretched himself out a* though he were dead, and waited until some young rabbit should poke his nose into the bag to eat the bran which was inside. And pretty soon along came a young rabbit and as soon as it crept fn3ide the bag to eat the bran my father pulled the strings, and that we* the last of the little rabbit. “Well, after that, my father took the rabbit to the palace and gave It to the king, saying It was a present from hi* master, my Lord of Carabas, for this was the name he had invented for his young master. “Well, one day,” continued Puss Junior, “my father told his master to go bathing in the river and leave the re*t to him. “And while he was bathing, the king passed by, and my father, Puss in Boot*, cried out, ‘Help! Help! My Lord of Carabas Is drowning!’ And of course the king ordered his guards to the rescue and had anew suit of clothes brought for Lord Carabas, and invited him to ride in his coach with him and his beautiful daughter, and by and by they came In sight of a castle which was owned by • wicked ogre."
