TREES TO HONOR WORLD WAR MEN St. Joseph County Will Supply Lincoln Highway With ,1 Shade. SOUTH BEND, Ind.. July 9>—rians are completed by the St. Joseph County Metfiorlal Tree Assoeiation for planting several thousand trees along the Lincoln Highway in commemoration of this county's young manhood participating in the World War, and Immediate steps are to l'e taken to carry out the work. Charles C. Deam. £tate forester nnder the Indiana Conservation department, was driven oTer the route recently and advised as to the species to plant which will thrive best in the several s<4ls encountered. The entire county is organized with business, manufacturing, civic and agricultural interests supporting the project. The general plan of the executive committee is to sell the trees at cost plus cost of planting. The first step toward completion of the memorial project is to make a map of the highway through this county. This map will be forty feet long and forty-two inches wide and on a scale of 290 feet to the inch. It will designate the location fit each road leading off the main highway, each building and each tree planted, leaving sufficient space to place the name of the person to UiSich each tree is dedicated. The idea of planting trees long the Lincoln Highway Is strictly for a memorial purpose and it has no connection with any movement to reforest Indiana. ""Mr. Deara pointed out that aside from the sentimental connection of roadside tree planting, and the fact trees along roads are a benefit in that they beautify the drire and temper the weather in all seasons. they have no great economic use. While here he took occasion to urge St. Joseph county farmers to plant their Idle and unfertile acres to forests, pointing out that the timber the public will need 100 years hence must be started In the form es trees growing today. The Lincoln Highway Is 31.4 miles outside the cities, in St. Joseph county, which sejit 6.000 men Into world war service. There is also a movement here to plant memorial trees along the Dixie Highway in this county.

‘Mabel * Narration Continued With Her in Role of Heroine Truant Hunts Husband, Home and Happiness by Climbing Down Fire Escape— All Three Escape Her.

Hf LVt BEL C. THAYER, City Court Probation Officer. Climbing down a hospital fire escape in the dead of night in a desperate dash i for freedom may not be the approved way to ahow one's appreciation of med,ical service, but it, at least, has the vir- ; tue or originality. Had the fire alarm struck at 10 o'clock one night last winter no one would have teen mere alarmed than Mabel, as she directed three pairs of bare feet down the narrow iron steps of the fire escape leading from the third floor of the city hospital. The owners of the feet had taken this method <4 thanking the city for the care its hospital had given them. Mabel, whose so-called borne was de- ; scribed in a recent Times article, was the most dangerous of the three becaus* of ; her dare-devil desperation. She must either return to an over- : crowded home. where poverty, noise, misunderstanding and dissension was the , daily diet, or else be whisked off to an , Institution. If successful, there was freedom, and later, perhaps, marriage and a home of* her own. Who knows? The stake was worth playing for. The older of her friends was a moral degenerate, formerly resident of a State institution for incorrigibles. and t familiar figure in both the Juvenile and city courts. , Physically, she wag large, loosely bung together, sleepy-eyed, unattractive;-men-tally, a child. She, too. had -an abusive stepmother given to chasing her away from home when she resented cooking and washing dishes for the numerous children. Successful in side-stepping work, she had once managed to find employment in a factory, rooming with a family near by. Neither work nor girl lasted long.

FACTORY WORK BECOMES DRUDGERY. Reta'ling to her hospital pals, one day, this oasis of work In a desert of Idleness, she had said: "Gee, I sure did hate to climb those stairs to my room. Nothin’ to it. Worked all day at the factory: got supper at a Joint on West Washington street; if I had any money left, went to a picture show, and then wenfcto my room. Family down stairs ngver came up. I’d a dropped dead If they had asked me to visit 'em. Seemed like they never knew I was alive 'cept on rent day. You bet, they never forgot that. Even when I was sick once they never come np " “Couldn't you\*et on the porch?” came from a childish voice in the corner. “No, slree. Not there. That tvasjor the family and I didn't belong. Used to go up and set in the park, and one night I met the dandiest feller. Gee, but he was swell. Next night he me out to suprer, and when I go? canned at the factory, he gave me some money.” Two years ago, this girl was arrested at the home of some colored “friends." It was 6 o'colck when her trial was finished in city court. She had no money. Nobody knew where she was to spend the night. Neither the State of Indiana nor the city of Indianapolis is equipped for the institutional care of delinquent young women over eighteen. Because of the fact, and because this rase illustrates the present very wasteful, Ineffective method of dealing with her. we quote from her hospital record: Aug. 16. Discharged from city hospital.

Sept. 15. Rearrested and entered hospital. Sept. 23. Dismissed. Sept. 27. Readmitted by city court. Oct. 10. Binet intelligence test given. Girl, thought IS. has mentality of 9-year-old child. Completed sixth grade in school. Oct. 2S. Tried to escape through the attic. Caught her foot in the attic floor, fell and wag discovered. \ Not. 10. Went down the fire-escape with two other girls and got away. Nov. 11. Picked up by Cnited States Public Health Service officer and brought into city court. Fined. Girl hid no money, and was sent to the sdlman's prison for thirty days. _ Dec. 19. Readmitted to hospital one week after she was released from woman’s prison. Almost unconsciously drunk when arrested. Not an encouraging record. Neither .was there much to encourage the babygirl that morning, eighteen years ago, when flrst sfce opened her eyes on this old world of ours. GIRD’S FATHER WAS DRI NRARD. The third young lady od the fire escape Is the daughter of a hard-working mother. Hr father had decamped to parts unknown while the child was in her basket cradle. Like her mother, she was used to toil' Tired body and jaded nerves sought lights and laughter when the day’s work wag done: sought youth, adn found only those who would mar her life.

SINGER RETURNS TO AMERICA

Miss Stella Lamont, young Amerleau operatic priina donna, who bus been singing with great success in the principal opera houses of Italy and Cuba for the last three seasons, has returned to her native land and in all probability will be a member of one of the two leading grand opera companies in this evuntby next season.

The girls disappeared. City court welcomed one the next day for disobeying, by running away from hospital, an ordinance coming under Federal Jurisdiction. “Where did you spend the night?" asked Judge Pritchard. There was no attempt at evasion In the reply : “In an empty country schoolhouse." “Were you helped to escape?" inquired the prosecutor. _ "Yes." “By whom?” “Two boys we know helped us to get away from the hospital. 'L. Froof of this lay In the two boys’ caps tipped at a-coquettish angle ot the heads of the two girls; also In the man’s raincoat which one of them wrapped around hey as she entered the courtrojm the matron's office. "Thirty days in the Woman's Prison” said the Judge. He looked Into a face as stolid, as expressionless as If the girl's mother had Just said: "Here, go to the grocery and get a pall of lard.” But more successful the venture- j some Mabel. Never difficult to borrow ‘ money from hospital pais—that Is, when they have it— , It was a beaten, dejected figure that took the witness chair when Mabel's name was called. She was discovered In a nearby town by the polii-e. The old spontaneity was gone; instead of the sunny smile, there was only brood Ing despair; with bowed bead she aat defeated. “Where did you get the money for your lnterurban ticket?" and the prosecutor waited for the answer. "From the girls at thevhospital " "What did you do when you got off the lnterurban ?” “Took a taxi and went to my aunt's." “What did you do then?" the questioner persisted. Wpuid he never stop asking troublesome questions? Silence. The courtroom stirred. There was a straining of long necks. Her answer must not bo missed. "Weil, can't you tell us where you went?’’ Silence. Mystery shrouded the rest of the Journey, and has to this day as far as the public Is concerned. The Judge Inter viewed a court official who knew Mabel's story. “What made you run away?” The judge was after causes. “I couldn't go home. They didn't want me there, and I was afraid you would send % to prison. "But couldn't you find work?" prcted the Judge. Msbel's girlish appearance would no 1 especially suggest work. g Rather did It suggest birds and flow ers and terraced gardens and beautiful ladies in pink and white dresses supping afternoon tea. Mabel would have beet; "charming" in a pink dress. No, 1 think t I would like her better In blue—light blue to match her eyes. STATE’S CARE BADLY NEEDED. 'j he State does not need new wards. But Mabel needs the State's care. Mabel is her own worst enemy. It Is many month since the doors of the State Institution closed upon her.

It’S generally conceded that a boy and the up to-date small girl like to swim, but to obtain a definite Idea of how many like to switn and how much they like to swim one should visit either the swimming pool at the Ringgold avenue city playground, between Orange street and Cottage avenue, or the swimming pool at the Altnont street city playground, north of Twenty Second street—or Just go out to Fairview I’ark and see the youngsters splashing around in the wading pool there as though they had truly found the "fountain of youth." And in addition to these two city swimming pools—the Ringgold pool for white children and the Almont avenue pool for little colored folk—arrangements have been made whereby use is made part of the time of the pool at the colored Y. M A., and arrangements are also being made so that the children of Indianapolis will have the best city swimming pools in the country. Do they like to swim ? They do. And they are being taught to swim right—taught wlicA their swimming shall be under strict supervision of employes gs the city recreation department.

In the hospital, she was like a streak of sunshine; in a group of girls, she was the leader; among older women, she wus re spectful, teachable, responsive.

STREET WORK IS HIGH THIS YEAR Material Cost More and Contractors Pay Heavy Interest on Capital. Tight money conditions are causing Indianapolis property owners to pay from 15 to 20 per cent .extra for street Improvements this year, according to city officials. In addition to meeting material prices which are higher than before the war period the citizens must shoulder the increased burdeu of financing improvement projects which the contractors pass on from the bankers. Few, if any, street contractors operate upon their own capital. When one of them it awarded a contract for, say the perman?nt improvemen* of a street, he borrows money from e banks with which to pay for tna' r.al and labor. Under present conditions he has to pay between 7 and 8 peKcer.i interest, usually 8 per cent. Sometimes the rate goes even higher, one contractor having reported to the city civil engineer's office that he had to pay 12 per cent, the excess over the legal 8 per cent being in the form of 2 per cent in commission and 2 per cent in discount. When the job is completed the builder does not get paid in cash. Asa rule, about 80 nor cent of what is coming to him Is paid in Barrett law .bonds because that part of the property owners aßg p ßf< „(] for the improvement elect to pay their share under the ten-year instead of cash plan. The contractor then pays off his note to the bank chiefly In Barrett law bonds. The banks, however, do not toko the bonds at par at present. Under the law they bear only 0 per cout and the financiers usually put from 5 to 10 . :* i discount upon them. Most , f i‘ u securities now are sold at 1)0. Here Is another 10 per cent loss for thw , co icat r. Property owners cannot be blamed lor | paving undor the Barrett law, It is sai 1 I because they have to 'pay only 6 per cent interest, whereas they can loan tb .i at 7 per cent or an even higher rate. The contractor does not shoulder the 8 to 12 per cent cost of his borrowed mnnv nor the 5 to 10 per cent loss on his Barrett law bonds, according to city engineers. He merely figures an extra

little hope of the girl escaping serioua consequences. “Often who nthe home is not entirely degraded there are conditions of crowd ing and p<*verty which lead to misfortune. Working all day, the girls are often obliged to help at home in the evening; and if they live In a crowded house, they must go on the streets to receive their friends. They are thus prnc tU ally forced on tl\p street for social life “The poor of the working class usually rear large families, and the income la proportionately small. The responsilbili--1 ties are often too heavy, and the parents caun-.t wait until the children are 14 years old before they are sent out to bglp support tho family. Many girls are defeated because they are obliged to turn over thejr earnings to their futher or mother Naturally, where children of 14 contribute to the support of the family, they pass beyond the parents’ control. A self-supporting Individual becomes. In the nature of things, a self-directing Individual. and the parents become less ex feting about morals when they become .dependent on She use of the child’s wages. "There are, too, of course, In our cities many girls who are, in fact, homeless, who live In unprotected ways In boarding and lodging houses. The practice of takin gbonrders In the congested dlstrift results in the. breaking down of moral standards. Many young girls who sure nominally under the protection of their own families are victims of neglect.” Those familln- with tho “residential districts’’ to which we do not bake our out-of-town guests on sight-seeing'trips know- that many of the conditions referred to In Chicago can be duplicated in Indianapolis.

Speaking of the purposes of the project, Mrs. Calhoun said: “The 'Woman's National Foundation has been established to promote the na-tion-wide civic consciousness of womanhood and for every good work that may 1 be considered yivie in character, or that is in any war associated with the study or advancement of civics or the promotion of educational or welfare work; in fact, the foundation plans embrace all that pertains to women’s’ work in relation to good citizenship. "In this connection It Is purposed to establish an institute of statecraft for women, In which will be taught parliamentary law. public speaking, diplomatic usage, languages, sociology, economics, methods of government and physical trailing. "We are the mothers, wives and sisters of the race, the national housekeepers of the Nation, and it behoove* Us to see that our hquse is put in order and kept clean. That is something that we can do. Women must study \ the science of government and perhaps we can assist in reorganizing a disorganized world. We must study Americanism and try to bring back the old simple standards and th high ideals and stand with solid front against insidious propaganda which is endeavoring to disintegrate ua.“

NOT TO SUBORDINATE ANY ONE CLUB. - "One of the objects of the foundation, which has secured the famous and historic Dean place, easily accessible to the center and the notable public buildings, is to Invite the clubs and club members who want to feel that they have a club of their own at the Nation's capital to come to these beautiful grounds and pick out a site and build their own clubhouse or take a place In the main building. We are not going to attempt to subordinate any club. We want them to live their lives and guard their own interests, but the foundation will supplement their work and add to it. In this central clubhouse will be a swimming pool and gymnasium, rending rooms, a good restaurant; In fact, it will be a club hotel, which will give the greatest possible comfort at the lowest prices to the different members. "Then we plan a theater or opera house, which I have no doubt the zoning outhorlties will permit when they realize our purposes. Our auditorium will not In any way Interfere with the plans for the Washington memorial which Is to be a needed convention hall, -with space for patriotic societies. We plan to have a place for drama and chamber music.”
