Pretty fair, eh? “HOW MUCH is the fare today?” asked a passenger on a Todd electric this morning. “I have been out of the city for a couple of days.” "UTE UPRISING in Utah,” ay press dispatches. Sure it isn't some movie company “on location” making a “Western?” PRESIDENT Harding’s plunge into the pool of economics, in the company of the country’s leading financiers, didn’t cause such an awful ripple. MUCH to the discomfiture of the copy readers and proofreaders of the country, this wrestler person, Zybszko, has forced himself into the limelight again. AFTER his spectacular skip-stop trip across the country, Capt. Eddie , Rickenbacker is reported to have donned a dress-suit and attended a reception and banquet. Seems to be a glutton for punishment Good-by Horse Doctors Recently the Indiana Veterinary College graduated over sixty young doctors but at the same time It is said that the old horse doctors exist no more in the younger generations. With the passing of the horse for travel and pleasure traffic, it would seem that veterinary colleges would also pass, hut they remain a very important part of the community. The young men who are leaving college will find more work before them today than did the older practitioners, and really more complex problems are promised them than ever appeared in bygone days. Their duties will ‘largely be preventive, rather than curative; they will be both physician and sanitary expert and in their care will be trusted livestock ever more valuable than yesterday. There was a time when the public was satisfied to drink milk from a herd of cattle, ten per cent of which were known to be affected with tuberculosis. A greater percentage of cattle used for beef were affected. Contented cows are recent, while milk products have grown in use to gigantic proportions. The sanitary barn has achieved a permanence in farm life and the man who would winter his cattle in the open, in Indiana, may be prosecuted for cruelty to animals. A big battle awaits these young men. in the hog raising of the country. Hogs may be fattened and sold in nine months from birth. It takes that long to get a crop but there is a demand for winter pork and summer swine to the extent that few progressive farmers sell off their grain. They just feed it to the hogs and dispose of the porkers. To keep these in health is an art often requiring the advice and care of an expert. Each succeeding generation has improved its livestock. The scrub is no longer welcome on the farm—it eats as much as the thoroughbred. So with the high class and incidentally high priced stock the demand for the veterinarian is just as great, in spite of the flivver for fun. It is asserted that the making of completely sanitary surroundings on the farms for stock is in its infancy. In this the modern doctor of animals excels. Then, too, when a speechless animal is in pain and suffering some one who understands is sure to be in demand. He may not go to treat a sick horse, but it may be a very expensive cow or a registered hog of remarkable worth. A Rich Man's Sport Boxing has recently developed into a rich man's game, to ruch an extent that a little two dollar admission to Spedway races is scarcely worthy of mention. All the $50 reservations for the Dempsey-Carpentier boxing match in New Jersey on July 2nd have been sold at this time. Boxofflce receipts now total almost $600,000. There was a time when a purse of $50,000 was considered sufficient inducement for a man to stand as long as he could keep on his feet and to permit himself to be pounded with sledge hammer blows. He regarded himself well paid. Now the hero, whether victor or vanquished, must have more than that. The art of boxing waa fostered during the war because it taught defense and quickened the movements of the body. It is not probable, however, that those who encouraged this had in mind the elevation of the slugger to the plutocratic opulence he has assumed. There is a fine art in attack and defense, where agility and good judgment enter. Brutality exists where main strength and endurance are relied upon. In the usual bout it is difficult to determine where one leaves off and the other begins. The world does not admire things brutal. Americans who have witnessed bull fights in Latin countries try to forget them, but the most refined do enjoy skill in boxing and all the Nation’s interest will be centered, for the time being, on the New Jersey event It is hoped It will be properly conducted and that true sportsmanship will be seen. In wrestling there is some difference but it is too difficult for the average American to follow. It is really a Balkan sport.The world champion, Zybszko, recently defeated Tofalos in half an hour. The tale of the engagement requires some wrestling by any one not familiar with names. Near East Relief Mr. Thomas C. Day, vice president and treasurer of the Near East Relief and China Famine Fund of Indiana, calls attention to the fact that this state is $150,000 short of its quota of $400,000 for Near East relief and the fiscal year closes in five weeks. Mr. Day says that a number of things have interfered with the campaign to raise this money, among them being the Community Chest drive, and the European relief effort. He also points out that confusion as to the European Relief and the Near East Relief has resulted in thousands of dollars going to the European Relief Fund from persons who thought they were assisting in the relief of Armenia, which is a part of the territory to be served by the Near East Relief. The relief of those persons for whose benefit the Near East Relief was organized is an acute and pressing problem and the necessity of a quick response in Indianapolis particularly is apparent. It is hardly thinkable that Indiana with its wealth and charitable inclinations should fail in its quota for those sufferers for whom such great sympathy exists. No spectacular campaign for the raising of the quota is contemplated. The need of the money has many times been told. The organization for its collection and distribution is well established. There is no reason why the quota should not be taken care of in the next month. This is just another of those duties that is nevertheless a duty because it falls on the individual and can be shirked. The question is solely whether Indianapolis people will fail a suffering world while they revel In plenty. Keeping Young Would it not be well for every man to keep something near him, or to do some daily act, just to remind him that he, too, was once a boy? Those who are carrying a heavy responsibility, day in and day out, could well afford some token of boyhood. It is said that when James B. Duke, tobacco man, was earning $50,000 a year and becoming a captain of industry, he lived in a hall bedroom.and ate from a counter at a Bowery restaurant. In his early youth dire poverty compelled strict economy and this he continued for years. The impressions of boyhood remained long after he became head of one of the greatest of the world’s commercial corporations. A clever story is told of a rejoiner of this man to the offer of $25,000 by the late Justice Harlan of the United States Supreme Court, for a chew of tobacco which would taste as good as when the justice was a boy. Mr. Duke offered $5,000 for a taster which could taste tobacco as good as when he was a boy. The fact remains that the person who associates with children or younger persons keeps young, and he who keeps age in mind grows old. A game of ball, a swim, a walk over old surroundings are never amiss, without regard to age. Even a photograph of the old swimming hole, or of an early farmhouse often brings back recollections most dear. Daily effort to throw a pleasant and youthful vision on the mind will aid in staying young.
WALKER'S ARTISTRY SEEN IN‘SMILIN' THROUGH ’ ‘Adam and Eva' on View at English's—Snappy Vaudeville Bills Offered
There’s a touch of a producing genius reflected in ' Smilin’ Through,” which is so sweet and satisfying that one wishes that nothing will ever interfere with the hand that directed the play on view at the Murat this week. It seems to me that Mr. Stuart Walker has enhaled the delicate perfume of romance and of love; has grasped the weird significance of ghosts, and has dreamed in the magic rays of the moonbeams and basked in the warmth of the sunshine until he has absorbed the beauty of every situation in this charming fantasy by Allan Langdon Martin. An understanding of love, of romance, of ghosts and even of hate is needed to create the beautiful stage picture which ‘‘Smilin’ Through” demands. 1 am sure that Miss Jane Cowl, who created the roles played by Miss Blanche Yurka in the Walker production, would have joined in the demonstration of approval which a big audience gave in an unrestrained manner of the artistry of Mr. Walker in producing this play. The outstanding triumph of Mr. Walker is that in creating a garden set used during the entire play of such charming beauty that not a spoken word was necessary to obtain applause. I believe that I am speaking in a conservative manner when I state that the set used for ’’Smilin’ Through” is the heaviest and biggest ever used in a stock production in this city. The main set is a beautiful garden with a house in the background, with a quaint and magic gate leading out into the real world and an iron gate which leads one into the world of friendship. Moonlight plays upon this garden and the ghosts of departed loved ones penetrate its sacred precincts.. Even tragedy was enacted in this beauty spot fifty years before the play started. The tragedy referred to was the murder of Moonyeen Clare on her bridal night at the hands of Jeremiah Wayne, a rejected suitor. Moonyean dies in the arms of John Carteret when he slips the wedding ring on the finger of Moonyeen as her spirit flits ont of the garden. For fifty years John Carteret hated the name of Wayne and during that length of time he played checkers with Dr. Owen Harding, who was to be best man at the wedding fifty years ago. Carteret s interest centered on his niece, who lived in his household. When he learned that Kathleen Dungannon, his niece, was in love with Kenneth Wayne, the son of the man who killed Moonyeen. his hate for the Waynes prevents the marriage of his niece to Kenneth. Not until the spirit of Moonyeen drives the hate out of bis heart that his spirit meets the spirit of Moonyeen. And as the last curtain descends the niece and Kenneth are building dreams of future happiness In this world. All is well, both in the real world, as well as in the spirit world. "Smilin’ Through” is a delightful adventure in the theater and I have no hesitatlon in stating that it is Mr. Walker’s crowning achievement in stock production in Indianapolis, both from a standpoint of scenic charm, as well as from a cast viewpoint. Take a look at the cast Mr. Walker has provided for “Smilin’ Through," which is as follows: TIIE PROLOG. The mother of the boy... .Judith Lowry The mother of the girl.... Regina Wallace THE PLAY. John Carteret ....McKay Morris Dr. Owen Harding.... George Somnes Ellen..................... Elizabeth Patterson Kathleen Dungannon ....Blanche Yurka Willie Ainley .... John Wray Kenneth Wayne......George Gaul Mary Clare....... .Regina Wallace Jeremiah Wayne...... George Gaul Moonyeen Clare .....Blanche Yurka ; I would consider myself guilty of grand larceny if I failed to state here and now that a more capable company has never been assembled under one banner than the cast which Mr. Walker has obtained for this play. Blanch Yurka as Kathleen and also as the “ghost” or spirit of Moonyeen Clare has given Indianapolis proof of her splendid gifts as one of the leading emotional actresses on the stage today. How splendidly does she play upon the heart strings of your own heart in the last act of the play when she fears that her four years of waiting for Kenneth has been in vain. What a picture of loveliness is Miss Yurka in her wedding gown in the second act. Her work in the second act as well as during the entire play is of the sort which one likes to remember. It is no use to “rave" further over the work of Miss Yurka. Go to the Murat this week, see her, weep with her and love her. McKay Morris, who made his first appearance this season, as did Miss Yurka, plays two roles which he handles in a masterful manner. The role, or rather both roles, is played with the proper restraint and dignity. I believe that the work of Mr. Morris in this play will be the role which theater-goers of this city will prefer to see him enact season after season. Mr. George Gaul plays two roles. Please remember I am speaking of George Gaul—that name means complete satiafaction. Miss Wallace has two roles and there is no fault to find with her work. Haven't time nor space to speak of the others. I must say that Mr. George Somnes has never been seen at better advantage than as Dr. Harding Opinion: If you desire to boost In-

Mr. Walker has done his part, let us do the rest. At the Murat all week. —W. D. H. -I- -IBEASI.EY AND CLARK GRAB OFF HONORS AT ENGLISH’S. Gregory Kelly has a whole family wished upon him this week. One of those ultra modern families it is, too. There are a couple of daughters, both grown up and one of whom has annexed a rather useless sort of a chap as a husband. A couple of other chaps, both of whom have ail the ear marks of fortune hunters, are hanging around the unmarried “daughter" and they with a maiden aunt, given to fads and fashionable charities, and an improvident uncle, whose dearest delight it is to discover some ailment and then have it himself, make up this family, which is made to order for Kelly. Tbo real father develops a sudden attack of 'acute familitis” and sails up the Amazon in search of "peace and quietude"—and finds it, meantime leaving Kelly in charge of his household, but this seems to be getting “no place fast." This situation develops in “Adam and Eva,” the current bill of the Kelly Stock Company at English's Theater, and it’s an ideal summer attraction ideally played. Situations similar to the ones lu this bright and keen comedy of American life, may be found in any center of wealth and fashion, perhaps, not carried quite so far, it is true, but it is this slight exaggeration that makes “Adam and Eva" so enjoyable. The play is called "Adam and Eva," no doubt, after the principal characters, but when it was named those responsible for the title probably didn’t know that Bryon Beasley was to play the role of the real father, nor that Wallis Clark would do the honors as “Uncle Horace''
Free Views of the Panama Canal Only a few Americans ever will see with their own eyes the great canal at Panama. Nearly all of us have seen maps that show in black and white outllne the course of the great waterway. Fortunately there is a type of map which is not the dead, flat ontline, but which comes as nearly as may be to glving one an idea of how the canal looks. This is a bird's- eye view of the whole canal made nnder the direction of the National Geographic Society. This map ls printed in four colors on coated paper and is 12 x 7 1/2 inches in size.

or they probably would have styled it “Adam and Eva, Father and Uncle Horace.” It's a quartette that you do not want to miss. Beasley IS “James King,” symbolizing Ihe successful, modern American business man,little more than a “check book” to his family, who really are not to blame in the least because he has put business first and seldom knows he has a family except on the first of the month when the bills come in. Clark IS Uncle James Ligrim, who “fiftjen years before” came to the King home to spend the week-end, found a soft snap and settled down to enjoyment of it for the remainder of his natural life. There's an old saying that “the worm will turn" and that is just what “King,” or Beasley if you wish, does and in the turning Kelly acquires his family. He Is “Adam Smith" and when “Adam” becomes father he finds his work cut out for him. The most troublesome member of his family, but withal the best beloved, is his younger “daughter” Eva. You've guessed it, Ruth Gordon is “Eva,” and, well, stock fans know what to expect from Miss Gordon in these girl parts, so build your hopes as high as you wish —you will not be disappointed. “Adam" has an awful time with his family, wished on him so sudden like, and has to adopt the role of a “family tamer” before he brings things to the point he wishes. He even turns robber to achieve one desired object, has a financial crash and adopts a more or less deceptive demeanor a number of times when he has an unusually stubborn obstacle to remove, and finally takes his “family" to a chicken farm in the “wilds" of New Jersey, puts ’em to work and makes ’em like it. Willard Barton, Beulah Bondy, Wallace Ford, Florence Murphy, Angela Ogden and Harry Sothern are other members of the Kelly company who acquit themselves unusually well this week. “Adam and Eva” will be at English's all the week, with the usual matinees. It's an excellent play, with unusually bright lines and amusing situations, and the Kellys have given it a production that could not be improved upon. -I- -l- -|. WORTH WHILE BILL NOW ON VIEW AT KEITH’S. lt’s not often that such a pleasing fragment of musical comedy finds its way into popular vaudeville as the act billed as “Melody and Rhythm’’ at B. F. Keith's this week. A number of eccentric dances and dainty dances are presented, together with pleasing songs of various character sung by an attractive girl with a real voice. The act is artistically staged, bringing a faint whiff of the Follies with it. Clayton and Lennie, “the chappie, the chap and the cap," not forgetting the cap if it be a cap, keep the audience in a gale of laughter by saying little and looking a lot. A snappy skit with Shlrli Rives and Billy Arnold is an amusing bit of nonsense built around the female drummer and the traveling salesman. Songs and dances of the old plantation type are introduced by Doyle and Elaine in their lively act, “A Study in Tan." A variety of musical stunts combined with a “heap o noise” is exhibited in the “Versatile Act" featured by Acklund and Mae. A film showing of the American champion, Jack Dempsey, preparing for his battle with Carpentier completes a good bill. -j- -!- -ICOWBOY FUN AT THE LYRIC THIS WEEK. The twirling of ropes and the stamping of a group of horses give a touch of realism to “Cheyenne Days," the feature act at the Lyric this week. There is a large company in this act, and something is happening every second. A comedian with the troupe supplies a number of laughs and helps to carry on the action. Numerous cowboy stunts are given, from twirling lasso to freak horseback riding. Many of the stunts are difficult to perform on the stage, and during one of the last stunts, ropes are stretched across the front of the stage. In this stunt, a wild horse is ridden. A laugh one second is interrupted by a thrill the next as this troupe goes through a long series of stunts. Gypsy music and gypsy dances were interpreted by Charnoff's Gypsy Troupe, a company of five dancers and musicians. The setting of this piece is especially appropriate, and gives a good background for the music and dances. The Royces presented an amusing line of songs and humor. Their songs ware out of the ordinary and were well accepted. A cycling act that furnished a lot of amusement was that of Harry Fisher and company. With a smile that was contagious, and a giggle that nearly brought down the house, Fisher gave us a lot of fun with very little effort on his part. His cycling was of the first order, too. Grove and Henderson played and sang jazz songs as they were intended to b# playad and sung. They also won a bit of applause. Rosa gave some songs and a violin solo, and Parish and Peru, Hudson and Jones, and Monte Bank's farce were also on the program. At the Lyric all this week. -I- -I- -|.

HOROSCOPE “The stars incline, but do not compel!”
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 1. The morning of this day should be exceedingly lucky, for Saturn, the Sun and Neptune all are in benefic aspect. Saturn becomes adverse in the afternoon. They who seek employment should not lose an hour of activity while this configuration prevails. Real estate transactions should be warily conducted, for what appears profitable may become a loss. There are to be sudden fluctuations in value, it tlie stars are reud aright. Persons whose birthdate it is should beware of fire in the coming year. A successful and profitable year in business is probable. Children born on this day may be peculiarly inclined to falls or other accidents. These subjects of Gemini are usually exceedingly successful—Copyright, 1921. NOTED SPEAKER FOR IRVINGTON N. Y. Pastor to Speak in College Exercises. The Rev. Dr. Charles K.

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 how the many present-day problems of the home are solved by working on the budget that Mrs. Hooper has evolved and found practical. Follow them daily in an interesting review of their home life and learn to meet the conditions of the high cost of living with them.) TUESDAY. Mrs. Hooper realized that one mistake she had made in using her washing machine last Tuesday was to pack the pieces too closely. This she found prevented the proper action of the machine and lessened the effectiveness of the water forced through the clothes. She decided today to do fewer pieces at a time, even if it took one more load. Another thing that she must be careful about was not to have the water too hot when she was washing the clothes. The oldfushloned method of hand washing had safeguarded her against using the water too hot, because she couldn’t put her hand into it, but knowing that hot water ''sets'' the dirt, she was watchful today to reserve the scalding water for the hot rinse and use it only tepid for the washing. Mrs. Hooper's laundry cabinet was always well supplied with the soaps and powders that were needed for the washing of the clothes, and she also kept on hand all the necessary things for removing stains, and over the tubs were the instructions for taking out all kinds of spots that she and Henry and the children were at one time or another getting on their clothes.She had learned that there are eleven kinds of stains that affect fabrics —fruit stains, beverage stains, inks, grass, grease, wax (including gum), dyes, paints, oils, leather and those of metallic origin like rust—and that a certain treatment for each kind of stain was effective. Mrs. Hooper had gathered the best of these remedies and tacked them up in her laundry where they could be found quickly whenever there was an accident to a garment. She found that she devoted nearly the entire morning to her washing quite as she always had done, but that when it was over she felt no weariness whatever from the exertion that waa necessary to put into the work, as a result of using her new electric washing machine. Henry and Roger seemed to think that you just started the machine and went off and left it, and that when you returned the washing had been miraculously accomplished. She was explaining to Roger how it really had to be watched like a baby at first when she looked up from her sewing and said: “I wonder where Helen is. It is long past tea time and she hasn't come in to make it.” “I didn’t see her after school," answered Roger. “I don't know where she is.” Mrs. Hooper waited another ten minutes and then got up and made the tea herself, wondering very much at Helen's non-appearance, as she never delayed returning from school without telling her mother beforehand that she would be late. And it was almost never that she failed to return in time to make the tea. • Mrs. Hooper had gone to the kitchen to begin the preparation for dinner, and
was beginning to grow very much worried before she appeared. “Why, where have you been, Helen?’' asked Mrs. Hooper, as after going to her room and putting her things away, Helen came hesitatingly into the kitchen. “I’ve been up to Edna Jackson’s,’she replied carelessly gathering np the dishes with which to set the table. “Edna Jackson’s!” exclaimed her mother. “Why, isn't Edna Jackson away at school? And I didn’t think you knew her.” “Oh, yes, I do,” asserted Helen, “and she's home and she asked me to come up and see her this afternoon, and I went.” Mrs. Hooper looked the surprise she felt. The Jacksons were the millionaire family of the town with whom Mrs. Hooper and her immediate neighbors were on speaking terms only, as they spent very little of their time in the palatial house on the hill at the north end of the town, and their two children, a son and a daughter, attended expensive boarding schools in another State. “Where did you meet Edna Jackson?” asked Mrs. Hooper curiously, as she turned down the gas under the vegetables she was cooking. “At the library,” added Helen nonchalantly. “How long have you known her?” persisted Mrs. Hooper. “Oh, quite a long time,” answered Helen, as she rolled the tea wagon into the dining room with the dishes with which she set the table. Her mother wondered and when she returned to the kitchen said, “What did you do up at Edna Jackson’s house?” “Well, we rode up in her lemonsine and—” “Limousine,” corrected Mrs. Hooper. “Limousine, I mean,” she repeated, sitting down in a chair near the stove on which her mother was pushing the saucepans about, “and when we got there—” The front door slammed, announcing Henry’s return from the city and Mrs. Hooper said hastily to her little daughter, “I wish you would tell me all about your visit to Edna's before you speak of it to Roger and Father.” “All right, mother,” responded the child lightly as she sprang to the dining room door to kiss her father affectionately. The menu for the three meals on Wednesday is; BREAKFAST. Apple Sauce Cereal. Broiled Bacon Muffins Coffee. LUNCHEON. Egg Soup. Toast Squares Gingerbread Milk. DINNER. Bean Soup Vegetables en Casserole Fish Salad Rice Pudding. EGG SOUP. Put one quart of milk in the upper part of the double boiler and add two tablespoonfuls of cooked vermicelli and about two tablespoonfuls of grated cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted, add salt, celery salt and paprika to taste and two highly-beaten eggs. Cook, stirring constantly until the soup thickens and flavor with one tablespoonful of tomato catsup and half a teaspoonful of Worcestershire sauce.—Copyright, 1921.
