ARAB king’s coffers now about empty, says a headline —thus putting him In a class with his European peers. EVEN the Sinn Feiners are not objecting to giving the people a chance to say what they wish to have done. WHY shouldn’t the people have a chance to express themselves on the plaza proposal? They are going to pay for it. WHAT RATING would those four condemned schoolhouses receive under the qualifications listed by the State department of education? IF the good paving between the tracks could be placed on the streets where the city’s paving Is passable there might be a few decent streets. SHELBY COUNTY farmers are planning to refuse to accept $1 a bushel for wheat Who was It that said |1 a bushel was enough for wheat? CONTRACTS have been let for ten more portable school buildings and yet there are those who oppose the erection of permanent buildings. GENERAL DAWES is asking for latitude In cutting expenditures. If he is granted the same latitude witlj which the expenditures are being made he should accomplish something. THE WATER COMPANY plans 10,000,000 gallons greater capacity. Cheer up, maybe the people who live on the extreme north side may yet have a chance to sprinkle their lawns. C. L. BARRY says more money would have been saved had school Improvements been longer delayed. The city might also save money by closing the schools entirely for a couple of years. The INTERNATIONAL REFORM BUREAU Is attempting to stop the Carpentier-Dempeey fight because it has discovered both fighters are expected to try to win—and we thought that was the idea all the time, THE DECATUR fire department is to sprinkle the children of that city, which has no adequate swimming provisions either. Perhaps the Indianapolis fire department might do this after it learns to handle its equipment. A PERUSAL of the names of those sixty persons who attempted to keep J. Victor Pinnell, convicted in connection with the famous “Belshazzar’s feast” at Kokomo, out of the penal farm might throw some light on the identity of the other participants in that mysterious affair.

For Bosses or Children? Tomorrow the State tax board will take up the question of whether the school children of Indianapolis, who are without proper* school buildings, will be housed in a fitting manner next falL A State board, created by law to pass on the propriety of bond issues for public improvement, will have a public hearing and give a final decision on a question which can only be properly answered In one way—by the approval of the bond Issue. Several Indianapolis school buildings are in such a deplorable condition that a member of the school board has publicly said, “They are not fit for hog3 and yet our children are living a great part of their lives in them.” For the purpose of righting these conditions the school board proposes to issue approximately $850,000 worth of bonds to raise money with which to meet the reconstruction costs. And ten citizens of Indianapolis, headed by Alfred Potts, who represents the mysterious Taxpayers’ League, are protesting against providing decent schools for these children. These remonstrators are not really opposed to proper schools for children. They are merely deluded by a group fit selfish would-be bosses, who cannot bear to see any public improvement made unless they are first placed In a position to control the necessary expenditures. These bosses have told the remonstrators that now is not a proper time to take children out of places that are unfit for hogs. They have told the remonstrators that if we let the children live in the hog pens a few years longer it will be less expensive to provide schools for them. They have told the remonstrators that the money to build new schools should not be made available because the school board, which will direct the expenditure of it, proposes to pay the usual fee of 5 per cent for supervision of the construction of the new buildings. But these bosses have not told the remonstrators that the real reason they wish the bond issue opposed is because the majority of the school board will not take orders from them, will not employe whom they desire employed and will nor submit to the dictation of self-appointed bosses. These things that the bosses have failed to tell the men they are using as their dupes in a fight to regain control of the affairs of the school city are self evident.

They constitute the only real purpose of the remonstrance against new school buildings. They make of this remonstrance on -which the tax board is to have a hearing tomorrow a thing that should be utterly ignored. For this remonstrance against taking little children out of hog pens is nothing except the instrument through which a few self-appointed bosses of Indianapolis hope to browbeat public officials into accepting their dictation. The question for the tax board to decide is whether it will be an instrument through which selfish bossism will profit at the expense of children whose lives and health are menaced. There will appear at this hearing the paid representatives of the bosses and the real friends of the school children. The paid representatives will skilfully argue against the school buildings and the real friends of the school will insist that Indianapolis is too great a city to house its children in fire traps and hog pens. There ought to be no question as to the approval of the bond issue and there will be no question unless the tax board is deceived as to which group of citizens really represents the spirit of this city.

Free Speech The evidence that good sense is so firmly rooted that it may always be depended upon to regulate public conduct, has been augmented by a decision of the highest New York court, sustaining the right of a city to bar Socialist meetings. That court states principles of law which are old, but which in time of peace are well recognized. It say i that the right of free speech does not mean the use of public property, as a street, for the delivery of a speech whenever one feels an impulse for self-expression, neither does it release from responsibility for what is uttered, even if the time and place have official sanction. It does mean that one may hire a hall or run a printing press, as is desired, but If he utters slander, libel, treason or Incitement to riot or a crime, then he may be prosecuted for the matter. In other words an unlawful agitator is the same as any other violator of law, although he may have a right to free speech, if he remains lawful. During the war it seemed at times that communities disregarded this distinction, but now that the war is over, it becomes an immaterial question whether or not the action In forbidding certain speech was constitutional. In the period of strife, when every energy is in use, it would be most unwise to stop or temporize on free speech. But in time of peaoe it becomes most important. _ It is demonstrated that countries permitting the utmost freedom of speech are the most stable in government, but this does not mean that freedom to advise crime or overthrow of the existing order is included in the term “free speech." In fact it is not. It within the ‘law. speech shall always be free.

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 renders of the Daily Times how the many present-day ' problems of the home are solved by wokring on the budget that Mrs. Hooper has evolved and found practical. /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.) WEDNESDAY. To iron fast and well was an accom-, plishment that Mrs. Hooper was slowly acquiring, and with each succeeding Wednesday she found what the work was really growing easier because of the thought she put into the details connected with It. Just Ironing In a haphazard fashion she had long ago discovered was not onlg- a waste of time, bnt 8 vexation to the flesh and she found that by having a regular plan as to how each garment should be Ironed made all the difference In the world In results. She always sprinkled her clothes the night before so that the dampness was evenly distributed through them when she began to Iron. Each piece was well shaken out, the sleees of all garments straightened, and when every part was sprinkled they were rolled, as were the napkins and handkerchiefs. Her thin waists, and Helen's and Betty's light dressee were rolled in cloth so they would not dry out. Her Ironing board was covered with clean unbleached muslin fastened smoothly and tightly in place. The electric Iron which she was using now had been a Christmas present from Auntie Belle and was a great improvement on the old ones chat had been in use in the laundry for so long. She had decided on going throi gh the the day before to give the t tree old Irons to Mrs. Campbell, who wai still using

jjypVIELANjn) Lillian Gish MILLIONS LOVE HER

One of the ‘lnside Jobs’ A year ago I met a girl who wanted so much to get Into motion pictures that she was willing to scrub floors in the studio, If necessary, in order to get a chance to do so. She said that she could ruir a typewriter, knew stenography, had worked for a year in an office back home. I could do nothing for her, but through the person who introduced us she met another motion picture actress who was much in need of a secretary. This girl was giren the position. And now she is so happy in it that the other day, when she accompanied the star for wliom she works to the studio, and was offered a small part in a picture, she refused to take it. “I might want to go on acting," she told him, “and I’d much rather stick to what I'm doing now I” I don't blame her; her work was far more certain, especially now when the Importation of foreign films and the condition of the picture industry have led to the closing of so many of the studios. Os course, her position is an unusual one; it calls for a great deal of tact, ability to weed out Insincere letters from sincere ones, to meet persons wanting to make appointments with the star and learn what they want, make engagements with interviewers, see that photographers’ appointments are kept, cooperate with the star's publicity representative—there are dozens of things for that secretary to do! She opens all the star's mail, goes through It with the star, and makes notations of how each letter Is to be answered, or stakes down the reply which the star dictates. She sees that the thousands of photographs which the star autographs are properly addressed and mailed. This is no small task; when the star is out on a location trip for a week or so, or is nnable to see her mall for

gas, and with them would go the paq that had been bought specially to fit over them at the ten cent store, so that none of the heat should be Wasted. She had noticed several times that Mrs. Campbell’s irons stood on the gas plat# without anything over them so that it took a great deal longer to heat them, and much of the gas that should have been conserved was being lost, ‘ Mrs. Hooper had been training herself to iron each garment according to soma system that seemed best and then stlckv lng to it until it became a habit. ing a waist or shirt she decided in wjflj order to go over Its different part* J® then always to do It In exactly the manner. In this way she exp* time to become so dexterous could go through the motions ing without thinking much about have her hands tra'ned like faithfu? ants to do their tasks while she be thinking of something entirely erent and a great deal more At her suggestion Helen had put a cover on the sleeve board, which one that she had found most sattsfacto?|j because It fitted so snugly and was s<9 easily drawn on and off. It was a dl'#-’ carded white stocking drawn smoothly over the padding on the board, and which kept Its place always withont slipping. There was another meeting of her committee called for the afternoon so- that at tea time the group of women met on the front porch and made out the report for the club on Friday. The expense to each member of the club would fee her assessment of one dollar, and the price d£ whatever materials wer necesary to make the allotment of cakes or sandwiches that would be assigned to each one of them. Mrs. Hooper had figure 1 that her quota would be about one dollar and fifty cents for supplies which would be taken from the money In her budget for “advancement” as every expenditure for the club she figured as returning her so much in entertainment. The purchase of anew flower ter her black lace hat, the material for Helen’* little organdie dress and Henry's new straw hat were expenditures directly to be credited to the garden party also, but that the entire family would have a most adequate return in pleasure from the day’s festivities on Fourth of July was Mrs. Hooper’s firm conviction as she made these entries In her account book before she went to bed. The menu for the three meal# on Thursday Is:

BREAKFAST. Stewed Prunes with Lemon Cereal Ric* Mnfflns Fish Cakes Coffee. LUNCHEON. Macaroni and Cheese Custard Graham Bread and Butter Cookies. Canned Beaches Milk. DINNER. Cream of Celery Soup Yeal and Kidney Pie Teas and Carrots. Lettuce Salad Rhubarb and Raisin Pie. —Copyright, 1921TWO of Three Negro Women Are Released Lillian Wilson, negress, 428 Wert Vermont street., arrested yesterday by Lieutenant Cox on a charge of grand larceny, wus bound over to the grand jury under SSCO bond after a preliminary hemring In city court yesterday afternoon by Judge Walter Pritchard. A charge of operating a blind tiger against Belle Finley, negress, 428 West Vermont street, who was arrested with the Wilson woman, and Mary Williams, negress, living at the West Vermont street address also, was dismissed. A vagrancy charge against the Williams woman was dismissed. The trio was arrested as a result of Norman Washington, negro, 1544 Garfield place, reporting to the police yesterday morning that he visited the notorious Bungalow roadhouse on Brighton boulevard, la company with three negro women and was robbed of $l4O.

!§r' :

some weeks at a time, It piles np lntl such heaps that it's discouraging. K But the position is an interesting oifl —particularly since this star is not oil of the temperamental ones. The girl goeO with her to the studio frequently, anP accompanies her on trips on location. Many secretaries have unusually good times When Elsie Ferguslcn went to the Orient last year, and then on to Paris, she took her secretary with her. Frequently a star's secretary will have an office in the studio, and keep closely In touch with the picture that is being made, which is always interesting. So yon girls who are studying t® be stenographers, and want Interesting occupations—why not keep this in mind? QfESTIOXS A.VD ANSWERS. V. L., Canada—Did Natalie Talmadg® really get married last week, or was that Just a rumor? Yes, she married Buster Keaton, the comedian, at her sister Norma’s home at Bayside, Long Island. Norma and Constance and Anita Loos all have homes down there —so picture the wedding I Sally, Columbus—Are the Farnura brothers going to go on making pictures? Yes, 6urely—for Fox; Dustin has Just signed with this company. Nat, Chicago—Which part Is Mary Plckford playing in “Little Lord Fauntleroy ?” She plays two parts—that of the little i boy and that of his mother. There is 1 some remarkable double exposure workj in this picture, as the two characters! are shown clos r together than is usnaud managed in rcenes of this kind, there is a difference of sir inches in height—so you can see that Mary been doing some interesting things ul working out ': t cts for this release.—l Copyright, 19.'
