MODEL HEALTH CENTER IS PLAN Nursing Association to Extend West Morris Street Work to School No. 22. Plans to make a model health center out of the community surrounding the Jewish Federation house at 27 West Morris street and the new building of tchool Xo. 22 at Kansas and Illtnois streets this fall are being worked ont by Miss Edna L. Hamilton, head of the Public Health Nursing Association, and Dr. Hftm’-a G. Morgan, secretary of the board or public health. The association has operated a public health teaching ctnter for student nurs*s of the various hospitals at the Jewish Federation house for some time. The work now is to be broadened to include making a model health school out of school No. 22. It is the desire to teach the student nurses every phase of public health. The big feature lacking heretofore has been the public school. The curriculum of the teaching center will be of much greater value with the public school work added. While those who follow the teaching center's work will be benefited the pupils of school No. 22 will be the chief beneficiaries, Dr. Morgan stated. Value of the choosing of the school as a model health center, so far as the chllddren are concerned, lies In the fact that there will be much closer supervision over tb lr health than usually Is practiced In public schools. Details of such supervision are to be worked out later.

UNION LEADER ANSWERS CRITIC Musicians Earn Living by Playing in Band. Milton -N. McCord. 420 West FortyFirst street, rice president of the Carpenters’ Local No. 75, C. and J. of A., ha? written the following letter to the editor of the Times in reply to criti' isin of the action of the Central Labor Union In protesting against the employment of the Purdue Band et the State Fair: "In answer to Mr. A. J. Allen’s statement in the News, I was wondering If ■ the people would think the Central La- I bor Union had done sueh a ridiculous thing if they really understood why the action wns taken In regard to the Purdue i baud. First I wish to say that perhaps the members of organized labor hare as i much respect for, and take as much pride. : In the fact that the Purdue hand is a product of Indiana progress as the writer ' himself, but every one knows that all, or nearly all of the students of Purdue are In a position financially that they do ' not have to depend on the service ren- ; de.red at the State fair for a living The ; members of the Musicians’ Union make 8 large part of their living, and some make all of what tjjey earn, by furnishing music at joat such places of amusement I as the fair. They are taxpayers of out j own city; citizens that assist in keeping up all improvements of Indianapolis, and It is hard enough to obtain work now without boycotting the talent of this city. “Some of these men have babies who ' are just as worthy as an outsider's child j to a proper amount of food and clothing j alao a fit place to live, and that is why | the C. L. U. took the action It did. Not j to oppose the Purdue band members or ; on accoount of the wage question, but ■ to hlp the wage earner of our own locality. Will someone canvass the mem- j hers of the Purdue band and see Just how ■ many of them do not even live in the State, and how many are from families that do not have to depend on what Is i earned by playing in that band?” Certificate Sales $20,434 in Month Daring the month of June war savings certificates and treasury certificates to the amount of $20.434 60 were sold by the Indianapolis postoffice, according to a bulletin received from Wathlngton by Postmaster Robert E. Springsteen today. Acburn ranked second in the amount of tales made in the State, with $1,620.13, while Salem and Rochester took third and fourth honors. The showing of the smaller county a*at towns was remarkable, when compared to that of the larger cities, Muncie, Evansville, Kokomo, Ft. Wayne and Tqyre Haute being ont- I .ranked by a number of smaller cities. MEXICANS IN UPRISING. MEXICO CITY, Aug 26—A revolutionary uprising led by Pablo Vtllaneuvo : and Gen.

Highways and By-Ways of LiF OF New York Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Cos, By RAYMOND CARRALL

Special to Indiana Daily Times and Phiadelphla Public Ledger. NEW YORK. N. Y., Aug. 2G — l There are times when it Is a real pleasure to get a letter from an old friend asking you to do something for him, William Dudley or “Uncle Dud," as everybody knows him along Fifth avenue, writes from his present bailiwick in Milwaukee for “the verylatest screen dope.” After spending the entire afternoon hoofing the golden stairs of shade wland—really, you do use elevators but “golden stairs” sounds more romantic—l have gathered an ear full. My dear Dud: Knowing nothing whatever about the silver sheets from personal knowledge I am able to write freely. All that I tell you has been told me. Watch out for a big merger of the Famous Players I.asky Corporation and the Metro Pictures Corporation. Why do I say so? My answer is what a picture man remarked: “Did not Marcus Loews son Arthur marry Adolph Zuker s daughter Mildred ?” When I repeated the pleasantry today to Mr. Loew, Sr., who was up to his eyes In arranging for the opening of his Mammoth State Theater next Monday, he laughed heartily and said: “Os course, my personal relations with icy good friend Zuker have nothing to do with our business relations." There has been a lot of knocking of the picture industry, but it still remains the Nation's gold mine. Aside from the billion dollars ($1,000,000,000) invested in the 17,000 picture theaters of the country there is an investment of $250,000,000 additional in production studies, productions and distribution enterprises. Annually the turn out of productions is 700 features, 250 comedies and 500 short ones, two and three-reel subjects. The dally attendance ranges from 12,000,000 to 15,000.000, with receipts averaging $750,000,000 every twenty-four hours. The summer shut-down for repairs, hot weather and lack of business is estimated at 16 per cent and Labor day the whole industry is expected to be running nearly full blast again. SAME LEADERS AHEAD NEXT SEASON. For the coming season, as before, the leaders will be the Famous Players Lasky Corporation, William Fox. who has become a sort of John D. Rockefeller of the Industry, and the Metro, ' which Is Mr. Loew's production curpo ration. Both Fox and Loew have long strings of theaters, being exhibitors as well as producers, likewise the Famous Players, which bonght heavily Into the picture houses, and controls hundreds of them. The way to build a theater is to go into a town and put an advertisement in the leading newspaper "Why has this city no first-class picture house? ’ Then launch a company and invite local capital to participate. It's as easy as roliing a log down hill. Next after the big trio we have the Goldwyn distributing corporation, the R.-C. Pictures Corporation, the Selznick Pictures, the Universal Film Manufacturing Company, the United Artists (D. W. Griffith sand his three stars, Charlie Chaplin. Mary Plckford and Douglas Fairbanks), the Associated Producers, William R. Hearst's Cosmopolitan and International and scores of other cor- ; porations and Individuals. Chester Beecroft—you remember Chester when he was down in the editorial rooms of the old Press—says the American Production j firms have an all-velvet rake-off from foreign countries of $25,000,000 annually. That Is why he says It would be a short- | sighted policy for Congress to put a high tariff on the few foreign films that ■ are available for this country. If we • shut them out, he says the'e may be re- I taliation and American Sims be punished j abroad where they are 100 per cent welcome, both as to quality and amount. "Ler-s than 10 per cent cf the foreign- I made pictures can be used here and in the last ten years, the aggregate they i have taken out of the coui try In cash is not $5,000,000," he said. “Only rarely do foreign picture producers splurge—most of their subjects are for home consumption only. When tin y do put big money Into a picture It generally is something American producers can learn from, a stimulating influence well worth admitting into the country. For Instance. The Italian 'Quo Yadls' and ’Cabiera,’ the German ’Deception.' ’Passion’ and ’Son of Napoleon' and i 'Les Miaerables,’ the British ‘Watting Eyes’ and ‘Carnival’ and the Danish •The Books of Satan,’ ’The Thautom Ship’ and ‘Our Mutual Friend.' “Not long ago in Berlin, I saw some three hundred German pictures and less than twenty-five of them were even bare ; possibilities for America, the others being entirely too morbid for us.” GERMAN FILM SCARE IS SIMMERING. So I would say, taking it from Chester and others that the German film scare is simmering and amounts to a bug a-boo The American Legion had best lay off. Further, the deal Mr. Zukor recently put over in Germany put the principal German screen artists under American man- j agement. j When one contemplates the vastness of the motion picture Industry, the salaries it pays and the enjoyment It spreads ec ■ low cost among millions it is difficult to realize It is a business that is only : twenty-one years old and virtually has Just come to age. Hence, it is well to bo tolerant with Its shortcomings. The pic- j ture business runs In cycles or eras of , about eight years each. It opened with the penny arcade and the slow develop j ment of the Edison, the Vltagraph and the Biograph Companies which made one- j reel pictures used in the vaudeville house j as "chasers.” Remember bow when the initials “A. B." were shown on a film we used to settle back In our seats and applaud when it was over. That was D. W. Griffith's constantly making better pictures and hie nameless artists were Mary Pickford, Mack Sonnet and those early stars for in thost days, the producers would not allow the names of their artiats to be known. After a time there loomed the “Big Eight”—Biograph, Edison, Lubin, Es ?enay, Selig. Kalem, Gaumont and 5 Ita- : graph. All gone now, or practically so. j as factors In the industry. Every man t

who went in made money, a few kept it as Frank Marlon, Edwin 11. Porter and Sam Long. Col. William Selig. au excircus man. laid out an animal park in Los Angeles with his profits. “Broncho Billy” Anderson built theaters and sold them. Col. ,T. Stuart Blackton, who is now in England with 'Sir. Thomas Lipton, owned yachts which is pretty good for an ex-chalk artist from the Chautauqua circuit, where his magic lantern was Albert E. Smith, another film magnate. BIOGRAPH MADE FIRST CLEANING. It was the Mutual which took Griffith away from the Biograph people and snared the first big wad of Wall street money. It set the pace with the first studio of size at Santa Barbara, paid 12 per cent dividends, hired Charley Chaplin for $640,000 a year, the first big salary to a screen artist. 1 asked for the Mutual, the Rex, the Champion, the Centaur and all the other companies we. used to hear of. Gone, all of them. Ihe Universal was formed to take over a lot of the wrecks that have strewn the path of the past. As far as 1 can ascertain Crawford Livingston, a banker, put the first Wall street money into the motion picture industry, the Rialto Theater In Broadway. There was a rush of big financiers eager to clean up in the pictures—Thomas Fortune Ryan, Janies A. Stillman, Gen. T. Coleman du Pont, Felix and Otto Kahn and a long list and after the financiers came the banks dipping Into their gold bins and extending loans. (Motion pictures today have become standardized, for with the advpnt of the banks came shoals of auditors checking up expenditures and curtailing waste. One of the large studios a few days ago closed down the tearoom that It ran for the benefit of its women employes. An auditor from Wall street did that. It Is an Industry that has become a part of big business and no place for small capital and a graveyard for the fortunes of the Inexperienced. That Is why such men as Zukor, Fox and Loew, who used to run penny arcades and rubbed elbows with the public have battered their waythrough ail these years and now make the entertainment their own picture theaters offer; their box offices kept them going when others went to the wall. Yours, R. G. C. The Hylan “Angustals" are again vociferously in evidence at the hearings of the Meyer legislative Investigating committee. They were in excellent form during the recent uncovering of graft charges in connection with the renting of space In the city markets and demonstrated they were under clever direction for they alternately applauded and booed exactly In the right places. So far as Is definitely known the Emperor Nero was the first to use professional npplaudcrs and whenever he acted in Rome he had his performances greeted by an encomium chanted by 5.000 of ht.s soldier* who were given the name of Angustals. It was the recollection of the way In which Roman mobs were swayed by the Angustals that caused the sixteenth century French poet, Jean Daurat, to revive the claque to boost performances of his plays. A claque thoroughly organized on the modern French plan requires a chef de claque and five sets of boost ers.

gram unfolds; the rieurs, who laugh loudly at the Jokes, the pleureurg generally women, who feign tears at the sentimental stages by holding handkerchiefs to their* eyes; the chatoullleurs, who keep the audience in good humor and the blsseurs who clap their hands and call out “bis bis’’ to secure encores. “Bis bis Hylan Hylan,’’ It all has the earmarks of Vic AVatson and Henry Klein experts at running mass meetings in Cooper Union. I wonder if the upstate members of the legislative committee and their up-Rtate chief counsel ever dream that much that issues from the audience daily present at the hearings, could have been staged in advance, and that invisible wires are being pulled right under their very eyes. Brig.-Gen. Edward Maitland, who lost Uis life on the British dirigible R-38 (which was to be known as the American ZR-2), is personally known to the writer as the British officer who two years ago handed down from the gondola of the R-34 at Pulliam, Norfolk, packages containing full copies of the Public Le(if,r, the first American newspaper to be carried by air from the new to the old world. He commanded the R-34. ‘Here they are,” he called cheerfully to the writer as he tossed out the bundles “exactly as they were given to mo on Long Island.” A few days afterwards General Maitland visited the Public Ledger office In London, and was presented with one of the famous Public Ledgers for his personal aviation library, which is probably the most complete in England. General Maitland was the soul of aviation in the British army, and never sent a subordinate where he had not previously been himself. In his early aviation experiences he fell from a balloon and broke both of his ankles and walked lame ever afterwards. Probably his closest fiiend in the Fourth Estate was William Aekland, an editor oq the staff of the London Times. The ideal Job had been discover'd In New York City In fact, it exists in all large cities—frrr any refined woman who is forced to go out adn earn her bread, the sort who finds herself unequipped for office work and shuns being seen in a

lesser sphere by former wealthy associates. It Is the position of floor-clerk in a great hotel. Every sumptuous hostelry requires from twenty to thirty of such employes, persons of gentle ways who posses tact, good manners and look the full meaning of the word “respectable.” Here on the upper levels of the hotels, away from the fashionable crowds that throng the smart cases, these ladies of reduced circumstances contact only with strangers. The pay, while not large, is ample to meet average needs, and meals are included. Frequently a happ.v romance grows out of an acquaintance formed over the taking arid giving of a room-key in one of these upstairs hideouts, some lonesome.

POLICE HOLDING HOLD-UP SUSPECTS Investigate to Connect Men With Robberies. Harry Quick, 82, 1522 Broadway avenue, and Claude Dunbaul, 33, Kill Barth avenue, are held In the city prison without bond on vagtancy charges pending investigation by detectives. The police bplieve the two men have figured in recent hold-tips. Sergeant Sheehan, in charge of an emergency squad, was sent to the Blafkstone Case, 439 Indiana avenue, late Thursday night, and when the police entered. Quick, it is said, attempted to hide a revolver of large caliber tn his trousers. The gun slid down his trousers leg to the floor. An affidavit charging forgery was Died against Quick. Charges of vagrancy against Burl Montgomery, 1410 T.ee street, Bussell Hyatt, 136£.' South Belmont avenue, and Elmer Ball, 1349 Silver avenue, were continued indefinitely by Judge Walter Pritchard in city court. The t.rlo was arrested by Detectives Uarnaby and Giles Wednesday, afefr, it is alleged, they attempted to buy revolvers at an Indiana avenue pawnshop. ! It was believed by detectives the men were members of a gang that held up and j robbed a restaurant Tuesday night. I

CHICAGO RETAIL MILK COST DOWN Announcement Follows Cut by Wholesalers. CHICAGO, Aug. 26.—Retail milk prices in the Chicago territory will be cut 2 cents a quart beginning Sept. 1. The announcement followed one of the producers that wholesale rates would be rut from $2.30 to $1.50 per hundred pounds, of whole milk. By reducing their price from 14 to 12 cents a quart the retail cut is made 92 cents per hundred pounds, the dealers say. Chicago is the last large city in the country to reduce retail milk prices frcin their high level of last January. In New York prices have dripped 3 cents a quart within the last eight months. In Boston the drop has been 2.25 cents. In St. Louis there has been a reduction of 3 cents and in Denver and San Francisco 2 cents. A 10-cent rate, the producers estimate, would still leave the distributors getting more than 60 per cent of what the consumer pays for milk. Butter has slumped 5 cents a pound in many retail groceries here within the last woek. Scientech Club Plans Program for Picnic Members of the Scientech Club have completed plans for the big annual club picnic to be held Saturday at Warfleigh. A program of athletic events and stunts ranging from a tug of war to horseshoe pitching contests has been arranged. Special bus service from the Broad Ripple street car line to Warfleigh will be pro- j vlded. L. A. Snider, member of the firm of Snider & Rotz. engineers for the board of school commissioners, will speak on school affairs of Indianapolis at the next regular meeting of the club, to be held Monday noon at. the Chamber of Commerce.
