KEEPING HOUSE WITH THE HOOPERS j

Follow them dally in an "interesting review of their home life and learn to meet the conditions of the high cost of living with them.) SATURDAY. Roger spent the entire morning scraping the old paint off Helen’s little dresser and the old table that his mother had him bring down from the attic to get them ready for the fresh coat of blue paint that he intended to put on. They had decided that all the painting and decorating would be done next week after school had closed, but when the furniture was taken out to clean the room thoroughly Roger decided to get all the scraping done at once. The floor in the bedroom only needed a thorough scrubbing and oiling and this, with the washing of the woodwork and windows, Mrs. Hooper easily accomplished before luncheon, beside putting the rest of the house in good order. In the middle of the morning Mrs. Hooper stopped her work and called up Mr. Jackson at his office In the city. When she put her request to him that he lend his beautiful grounds to the

Woman’s Club for a garden party on July 4, he did not hesitate for a second in replying. "Mrs. Jackson Is In Europe, as you perhaps know, but if she were home I am sure she would be very glad, as I am, to give the use of our grounds for the Fourth of July fete.” When Mrs. Hooper had thanked him he continued: “I expect to go to Mayfield this afternoon to spend the week-end. Borne of the servants are there and I usually spend a quiet Sunday at the house. Would it be possible for me to see you and then you can tell me more definitely what your plans are?” “I should be very glad to do that,” replied Mrs. Hooper. "If you will tell me where you live then, Mrs. Hooper, I will come to your house about 5 o'clock and we can talk It over. It will give me great pleasure, I assure you, to do anything I can for the Woman’s Club.” Very pleased with her success in obtaining Mr. Jackson’s promise to let them have the grounds for their garden party, she decided to say nothing shout his delivering the address until she saw him in the afternoon. Promptly at 5 o’clock Mr. Jackson made his appearance. He was a handsome, middle-aged man of the most prosperous type, with courtly, gracious
manners. Mrs. Hooper was In her accustomed place at that hour on the cosy screened-In porch with the tea wagon beside her. Helen brought In the tea, and after passing it to her mother’s guest left them to talk over the plans for the garden party. "I can't tell you how much pleasure it has given me to be asked to share in the town’s activity in this way,” said Mr. Jackson as he drank his tea, “and I will consider it a great honor to deliver the address. Both Mrs. Jackson and myself have often wished that we had closer ties with Mayfield than we have ever been able to establish. It has been the home of my family for three generations, but my father grew away from the town during his lifetime and I have never been part of it. I suppose It is entirely my fault. “It may have been the town’s fault as well,” replied Mrs. Hooper. “We have not been very anxious to Include you In anything, It would seem.” “Well, I hope to make such a good impression at the party that you will ask me again,” laughed Mr. Jackson. “There was a fear expressed by some of the club women yesterday,” continued Mrs. Hooper, “that great damage might be done to the lawns and flowers and shrubs if a crowd were admitted to the gardens.” "There will probably be no damage done that my gardeners cannot repair,” said Mr. Jackson, as he rose to go, "and I am willing to take all those chances for the pleasure of entertaining my townspeople. Helen had come out on the porch again to take away the tea things as Mr. Jackson resumed. "By the way, Mrs. Hooper, I shall bring my little daughter, Edna, down from tha city with me over the next week-end, and It would please me very much if this little lady would come over and have tea with us Saturday afternoon.” Helen lost complete control of the tea wagon, which she was carefully steering Into the hall. She could scarcely believe her ears. Was Mr. Jackson really Inviting her to tea? Was her dream coming true? "Perhaps, Mrs. Hooper," he concluded, "If you could get one of your committee to come with you It might be well if you came up to the house at the same time. Then we could look over the grounds, and decide what would be needed." Mrs. Hooper thought this would be a good Idea. “May I send my car for you at four, then?” he asked as he took bis departure.

CLEAN UP, SAVE PLEA OF WOMAN FIRE MARSHAL Cites Value to Citizens in Campaign of Chamber of Commerce. By EE LA B. CHESTINK. Assistant State Fire Marshal. I wonder how many of the citlaens of Indianapolis really know and appreciate all the work of the fire department and its'fire prevention allies. Os course many have given this subject somo thought but multitudes give no, thought to the value of the protection given them. The Chamber of Commerce has inaugurated this clean-up fire prevention campaign with the idea of making Indianapolis as clean as its cleanest home and has adopted tin slogan “It Is better to be safe than sorry.” The organization of co-worke-s In wards, precincts and blocks has be! attempted and In soma parts of the city no better cooperation could be asked for, while some sections have taken little Interest. The Inspectors Pom the Fire Prevention Bureau, cooperating with the Chamber of Commerce, your home, are looking for fire hazards in order that you ‘and ycur neighbor may be made safe from fire. There were in three wards 1.360 cleanup orders issued, it is quite plain to be seen, the need of cooperation in this the greatest and most necessary movement the city has ever known. Dilapidated sheds, fences, dirty basements and attics, unkempt lawns and slovenly back yarda reflect upon the whole neighborhood. Let us each set the example and no a good neighbor. Let us get rid of the rubbish and banish the fire hazard, but do not burn your papers In your furnace except on a rainy day, when the roofs are damp and a chance spark will causa no damage. It costs too much to stay dirty—let’s clean up and save money. The children can have a very big part in thla work and every boy and girl who helps to clean up, will become a cleaner citizen. The highest conception! of ambition Is to dream big dreams, the work to make them come true. The splendid ambition of the Chamber of Commerce to have a clean, safa and beautiful city, will become a reality when all the people of Indianapolis -.•ooperate with the fire prevention committee. Fails to Appear; $l,lOO Bond Held Forfeited The failure of William Fitsgerald, negro, 642 Johnson street, to appear in court yesterday after being subpoenaed on several occasions within tha last month, resulted in Judge Walter Pritchard in the city court'forfeited a $1,106 bond in his case. N Ison Wells, negro, well known political worker, It was announced, signed the bond. Fitzgerald wag arrested In the early part of last month by Captain Ball, Sergeant Dean and squad In the Bungalow r adhouse, 1918 Brighton boulevard, on chx ges of operating a blind tiger and interfering with an officer.
