MAKES REPORT ON SPAWNING SEASON State Fish Agent Says New Law of Benefit. A fish and game association with a large membership was organized at pioomlngton a few days ago and anew flub will be organized at Charlestown in Clark County this week, A. E. Bodine. •rganizer for the fish ad game division of the State conservation department, writes George N. Mannfeld, division chief. This raises the number of protective fish and game clubs to 120 in Indiana. According to Mr. Bodine, who has visited the majority of the counties in the State when the closed season law protecting bass and blue gills during spawning was in force, piscatorial devotees are now assured as to the good this law has done for the sport. Mannfeld says indications are there was an unusually large hatch of game fish in Hoosier waters due to natural propagation, and in two years the greater portion of this season's bass hatch will be of lawful size to catch. Interest throughout the State as regards fishing shows a decided increase for thou sands of persons now look upon this sport as a means of delightful and healthful recreation. PASSES AWAY IN LONG ILLNESS Funeral Services for Mrs. Emma Armitage Held at Home Thursday Evening. Mrs. Emma Armitage, wife of William Armitage and the daughter of Mark Poland, deceased, died last evening at her home, 3562 Broadway, after an illness of long standing which became acute about a month ago. Mrs. Armitage who was born in Marion county, was of a large and well-known family of long residence in Indianapolis. She is survived by her husband, five sis ters and four brothers. The sisters are Mrs. Ida Griswold, Mrs.- Lillian Clemons, Mrs. Mary Arnold, Mrs. Georgia Klndler of Indianapolis and Mrs. Sadie Baxter of Walla Walla, Wash. The brothers are Barry, Norman, Stanton and Raymond Poland, all of this vicinity. Funeral services for relatives and friends will be held at the home at 2 p. m. Thursday, and the burial will be at Plainfield. Until her health failed in recent mouths, Mrs. Armitage was an active woman who had endeared herself to many Indianapolis people through unselfishness and kindness. There were many acts of unassuming charity and personal attention from her that leave to those who knew her a memory of infinite kindness.

The Truth About Indianapolis

TIRE INDUSTRY THREE tire and tube manufacturers in Indianapolis each year build as high as 4,980,000 inner tubes, enough to equip half the automobiles in use in the United States. The largest of the manufacturers make 900,000 bicycle tires, and in addition builds the bulk of the inner tubes made in Indianapolis. Two plants manufacture 300,000 automobile casings of standard sizes. Retail value of the tires and tubes made by the trio of manufacturers reaches $14,500,000 annually. Products of these manufacturers go all over the world. Each year 9,960,000 pounds of rubber are made into rubber products by the 1,925 men and women engaged in the industry. An Indianapolis manufacturer was among the first to build a pneumatic tire in the United States, and the first cord tire was made in this city.

Sale of the Old Public Library Home Proposed School Commissioners Discuss Advisability of Disposal of Property. Sale of the old public library building at the southwest corner of Ohio and Meridian streets, now occupied by the board of school commissioners, was advocated by w. D. Allison, member of the board, at a special meeting of that body last j night. “There are a number of persons who ; want to buy this building,” Mr. Allison said, “and I think we ought at least to ! look into the matter carefully. Under present condition the property is ei--1 empt from taxation. If we sell it will 1 mean an addiitonal $500,000 on the tax | duplicates, and some will go to the city. , This is a phase of the question that deserves consideration.” j Other members of the board expressed similar views and declared they were in | favor of disposing of the property If the j right price can be obtained, j Mrs. Julia Belle Tutewiler, president j of the board, expressed the opinion that I the board should not go into the matter hurriedly or blindly, but should be assured of other suitable quarters before disposing of the building. Bids for the installation of heating and j ventilating equipment at School No. 57, | East Washington street and Hitter avenue; and at School No. 73, Thirtieth and School streets, and for ten two-room portable buildings were received. Hayes Brothers with a bid of $34,901 for School No. 57 and Frayn Brother* with a bid of $24,150 on School No. 13 were the low bidders on heating and ventilating equipment. Owing to the fact that bidders on the I portables in many instances did not ! adhere to the specifications it was im- | possible to tell who was the low bidder, j All bids were referred to the building advisor for computation and will be rei ported back to the board at a special meeting to be held Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock, at which time the contracts j will be awarded. The following concerns submitted i propositions on portable buildings: j Amreican Portable House Company, I Seattle, Wash.; E. F. Hodgson Company, Boston, Mass.; Pro-Slate Company, Evansville. Ind.; J. F. Cantwell Company, Indianapolis; Bunting Construction ComI pany, Indianapolis: Gael Construction i Company, Indianapolis; Alexander Lumber Company, Indianapolis. Four bids for heating equipment for the portables were received from the following concerns: William H. Johnson Sons and Company. Indianapolis: Kruse & l>ewenter, Indianapolis; Haynes, Langenberg Manufacturing Company. St. Louis, Mo., and the Irving Sheet Metal Works, Indianapolis. In addition to the low bidders on heatI ing and ventilating equipment for schools No. 57 and 73, the following companies submitted bids Kruse & Dewenter, Kirk- j hoff Bros. & MoElwalne, Strong Bros., Callou Bros., William H. Johnson Sons & Cos., Cotton Wlebke Company, C. R. , Lingo Engineering Company, Powers Regulator Company and the Johnson , Service Company. The board approved the working plans ' and specifications submitted by McGuire & Shook, architects for the new eight classroom building at school No. 62. Wal- j lace and Tenth streets; and by Kubush & Hunter, architects for the eight classroom addition at school No. 36, Twenty- | Eighth street and Capitol avenue. These i buildings will cost about $200,000 ea ?h. j Plans for alterations at school No. 23. Missouri and Thirteenth streets, to cost j about $21,000 and at school No. 34, Wade j street and Boyd avenue, to cost about i $2,800, were approved. On recommendation of Ralph W, Doug- | lass, business director, John Hubbard, | superintendent of supplies, was f ranted J a leave of absence of one month.
