Dancing to Feature Third Annual Pageant
Dances of all periods of the world's Metory ranging from the wild, barbaric dances of savage peoples when the world was young, through the stately, formal court minuet of the eighteenth century down to the modern waltz will be given at the third annual pageant under the direction of the department of recreation of the city at Brooksida Park Wednesday evening, Aug. 17. K. Walter Jarvis, recreation director and his assistant, Mias Alice Mescal, will have charge of the pageant. The title of this year's pageant is entitled "The Evolution of the Dance," and it will be tho most elaborate and pretentious yet given.

Final rehearsals at Brookside Park will be held the last few days before the pageant.
per acre for any such land as described. The company also desires the right to name the boulevards, beaches, lagoons, parks, etc., established iu or around the lake. It is understood the company Is willing to construct the beaches and banks around the lake, making the banks out of the earth taken off of the top of the gravel bed and the beaches out of surplus sand and gravel. The beaches would be constructed wherever and however the park department might designate. LOWRY LIKES PROPOSAL. Superintendent of Parks James H. Lowry wss enthusiastic over the possibilities of the proposal. Flo declared that the bake might l>e made a recrentlon center far beyond any dreams Indianapolis has had heretofore. The water Is of the purest quality and hence there would be no sanitary problem to be met in the establishment of bathing beaches. The possible size of the lake would make it excellent for boating and fishing. T3ic city undoubtedly would stock the water with fish, he said. CITY GETS COMMUNITY HOUSE. A resolution for the acquisition of the Cbristamore Settlement at Nineteenth and Columbia avenue, was adopted following receipt of an agreement by the board of directors of the Cbristamore Settlement Association to accept J IS,OOO for the property. The board and association have been dickering for s-vcral
months. The property inclndes a twostory frame building, containing a gym ncslum. auditorium, several small rooms suitable for class rooms, a well equipped kitchen and five city lots with 200 fc*>t of frontage on Columbia avenue and a depth of 100 feet. The settlement will be operated as a negro community center with a school for negro recreation workers as one of the winter feature#. A request that all applications for building permits upon property within 300 feet of boulevards or other park property be submitted to tb board for scrutiny before permits are issued, ka directed to the city building department. This action results fro mthe controversy over the proposal of the Jose Bslz Company to build a garage fronting on Twenty Eigbtn. street, befw.-en Centra! avenue and New Jersey street. The company got a building permit, but when residents of Twenty-Eighth street objected the board of works announced it would refuse the compact permission to cross the sidewalk, unless the park board approved. The park board today expressed its disapproval. NEW BRIDGE MAY BE BUILT. Flans and specifications f rth? new bridge over Pleasant Run nenr RFt p r avenue were adopted and the resolution ordered advertised. A contract with W. Bios. Lansing.

LAFaTETTK, Ind., Aug. 11.—The climax of a tragic story was reached yesterday afternoon when Henry Clay Snoke, an army deserter, who had been living' In this city under the name of Harry Smith, was married to Miss Irene Cooper, with whom he had lived during the past four years. The marriage ceremony was performed at police court by Judge Hudson after a collection had been taken up to buy the license. During the ceremony Snoke held one of their two children while his wife, 18, held the other, a £-weeks-old bttby. Snoke said he had served n ypar in Leavenworth for desertion previous to his second offense. He was drafted Into the Army iu 1917 and escaped from Camp Taylor. From there he went directly to Peru, Ind., where he persuaded the Cooper girl, 13, to accompany him to this city. The deserter was taken to Camp Benjamin Harrison today by Capt. Herman Kelm to be court-martialed.
80 Veers Old -Was Sick j Now Feels Young Alter ! Taking Eatonic for Sour Stomach “1 had sour stomach ever since I had the crip and it bothered me badly. Have taken Eatonic only a week and am much better. Am 80 years old," Bays Mrs. John Hill. Eatonic quickly relieves sour stomach, indigestion, heartburn, bloating and distress after eating because it takes up and carries out the excess acidity and gases which cause most stomach ailments. If you have “tried everything’ ’ and still suffer, do not give up hope. Eatonic has brought relief to tens of thousands like you. A big box costs but a trifle with your druggist’s guarantee.
