THAT MAN REILLY must have a sweet disposition if what the Haitians say of him is true. THE UNITED STATES shouldn’t have to worry much about reducing its land armaments, at least. THE ONLY PERSON who is thankful for the price of turkeys is the fellow who makes a profit from them. IT NOW APPEARS that it won’t even be called an association of nations, but merely a “gentlemen’s agreement.” THE ELECTION at New' Harmony resulted in a tie, but, true to the traditions of the town, it was settled harmoniously. A WASHINGTON writer says the disarmament conference is a magnified replica of American city politics. As bad as that? GERMANY DENIES the truth of Premier Briand’s assertions. The question is how far we can go in believing Germany. NOW THAT the football season is almost over the undergraduates w ill proceed to a scientific and intensive study of basket-ball. REPORTS of campaign contributions have a way of revealing facts that wouldn't have sounded very well during the campaign. PART of the public is supposed to read little more than the headlines. One of these days the office boys will he telling callers that the boss is in a “parley.” IF THE WEATHER MAN had permitted that rain to continue another day Mayor-Elect Shank might have been given an opportunity to demonstrate the soundness of his argument for a flood wall on the east side of the river. A FRENCH DELEGATE to the conference is quoted as saying that as a result of the Hughes proposal he will sell his steel stock immediately Doesn’t he realize that it takes more steel to make a plowshare than to make a sword?

Thanksgiving Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch once remarked when her troubles all but overwhelmed her that she was thankful she did not have a hair lip. Her example is a good one for those grouchy persons who demand to know what they have to be thankful for every time Thanksgiving rolls around. There is no one who is so badly off that he cannot at least participate in the spirit of Thanksgiving if ho will just scratch around in his mind for all the good things he possesses. Thanksgiving is a good time to take stock and to look upon things with a cheerful attitude. While it may not be exactly generous to compare ourselves, to our own advantage, with others, we in America cannot help but be thankful that, while we may have our difficulties, we have much more to be thankful for than many other peoples of the world. Ours is one of the few governments that has withstood the storm. Comparatively speaking, our prosperity is unbounded, so much so that we might stop and think on this thanksgiving what we can do to help the other fellow. Thanksgiving this year finds the world farther on the road to recovery and progress than any Thanksgiving in seven years. And things are getting better, despite the dire predictions of those who seem to enjoy being pessimistic. These things we have to be thankful for even from a collective viewpoint. From an individual viewpoint every one of us can find dozens of things for which t'> give thanks. The Pilgrim Fathers, despite our tendency to look on them as a gloomy lot, must surely have had this point of view or they would not have Inaugurated the feast of Thanksgiving. Unwise Financing The revelation that the city of Indianapolis has paid a total of $541,860 in interest on a principal of $459,500, representing the purchase price of five park properties, Is startling. This plan of publlo expenditures Is not unusual and exists in some other governmental units, but this does not make it any the less objectionable. Constant payment of interest on bonds which a governmental unit never expects to retire is one of the things that is keeping taxes up. No governmental unit should ever Issue bonds, without making some adequate arrangements to retire them. It is the height of foily to pay more interest on a debt than the principal of that debt. The creation of a sinking fund for the retirement of every issue of bonds should be a requirement in the issuance of bonds. A certain percentage of the sum should be set aside each year to retire the obligations. This Is the policy pursued by business houses and it i3 required of public utilities in Indiana. If the city, for instance, should make arrangements to retire its indebtedness at a certain percentage each year there would be smaller need for revenue in the long run. It might also be an effective check on extravagant expenditures. The revelation that this waste of public money attracted no attention from the Jewett administration, which posed as a “business” administration throughout the last four years, Is also Interesting. Apparently the “business administration” was a designation without much meaning. Boulevards and Factories While no one would put anything In the way of the development of industry, it cannot but be admitted that there is sense in the proposed ordinance introduced in the city council at the instigation of the Brookside Civic League prohibiting the erection of anything but residences and their necessary outbuildings wit lin five hundred feet of any park or parkway. The development of parks and parkways should follow a definite and intelligent plan as shoild also the development of factory sites. Factories and other business houses should not be allowed to mar the beauty of a park or boulevard but at the same time parks and boulevards should not be laid out promiscuously in factory districts where they would interfere with the development of Industry. In most cases persons living in such neighborhoods can be given park advantages without interferring with factories if intelligent foresight is used. Boulevards are essentially things of beauty. Otherwise they would be merely streets. The construction of a boulevard costs considerable more than the construction of a street because of this element of beauty. If beauty Is destroyed this additional amount would be wasted. This is one of the things that should interest the city planning commission. Water Power Development The outcome of the plan being made by anew utility corporation to harness the Tippecanoe River in such a way as to develop sufficient water power to produce enormous quantities of electricity will he looked upon with interest because of the bearing it may have on other such projects in inland States. We already have such examples as the development of power at Niagara Falls and the enormous plants on the Mississippi River, but there has been no extensive development on small streams such as those running through Indiana. \ The Increasing cost of coal and the increasing cost of transportation .have given a strong impetus to the development of water power. This is Rooked on by many as the only solution of the power and heat problem of the future. If the Tippecanoe River can be made to produce power in profitable quantities other small streams may also he utilized for this purpose. Power plants of this kind may spring up .ill over the country. The experiment In Indiana is worth trying.

PUSS IN BOOTS JR IST David Corr ——

! Ton remember, I left off in the last : story Just as the rooster came up the steps of the little house at tho end of the narrow street where Puss Junior was making a call on the little Yellow Hen. j Well, at first he was very much surprised to see our small traveler, but pretty soon ha put out his right wing to shake hands, and then, all of u Sudden, Hickory, dlckory, dare. The pig flee- up the stair. Avery funny thing to do. And made the rooster doodle-do. "Gracious! O me! O my!” screamed the llttlo Yellow lien. “That awful pig will just spoil tny stair carpet.” and she , began to cry, and this made the rooster Tory angry wish the Hickory Haro Pig. as he called him', and ho strutted across the piazza. i "I’ll spur him when ho comes down,’ he crowed, and then he waited at the front door. Rut Mr. Pig didn’t come j down. He just stayed upstairs, and by ! and by the little Yellow Hon began to | cry, “I want to go to bed." Well, Puss :by this time was very sleepy, and the ! gayly feathered rooster —well, I think ho was half asleon, as he stood by the front i door, for his head was tucked under his j wing. “Ile’H forgot to crow in the early morn, And little Boy Blue with his silver horn Is always asleep, so what shall I do If my Rooster sloops tho whole nlgb* through? “Tt’s time for mo to do something,” cried Puss Junior, bo he whipped Out his sword and woko up tho Rooster and then ho ran upstairs two at a ttmo. But, would you believe it if I told you, he couldn’t find the Hickory Dare Pig anywhere ? Puss looked in every room and In every closet. Ho even lifted the cover of tho big clothes hamper that stood in the bathroom, but Mr. Pig wasn't there either. Well, after a while, Puss looked out of tho window and there on the roof of the porch was the Hickory Hare Pig. “What are you doing up here?” asked Puss, and he waved his sword. But the ■ Mr. Pig only grunted. “You people downstairs are making an | awful fuss,” he said, and then he closed ! his eyes again, for ho was terribly sleepy. | And. anyway, he had a vnry nice, soft j plnoe on the big woolen comforter which he had spread on tho roof for a bed. “Well, you get out of here,” said Puss. “You have no right to take the Yellow Hen's nice comforter, nor to sleep on the roof, and if you don’t go I’ll stick my sword in you.” Well, after that the Pig got up and ran downstairs and out of the front door, and maybe he’s running yet, he was so frightened.

There are thousands of girls in California today from all jiuris of the country whose . friends have told them what great stars they would become If they went into the I movies. Many of these girls ure really ; beau’ifui but It Is almost Impossible for I them to get a hear'ng. “I know, because I have been through jlt all. I went to Los Angelas with a | l>lt of stock experience, gained lu | Seattle, and I made the rounds of the j studios day after day now and then picking up $5 for being an *extra,’ one of a crowd you know. “Then one day I was sent for and told if I would dive from a trans-Atlantic ' steamer I would be given an Important ! role In a picture about to be filmed. I |am a good swimmer but have never ! prided mysolf on my diving. However, I 1 wanted to get into the movies and hero was my opportunity. [ “I reported at the studio the following morning at (5 o’clock having had practically no sleep—l was too excited for that—and I was taken to the transAtlantic liner which was in Han Pedro harbor. I had to make my dive from one of the life boats on the upper deck—ill or 50 feet I should judge—but 1 thought j it 100 al least— r aud as I stood there i waiting for tho signal I was simply petrified. I never was so scared In my life. However, I made the dive and fortunately was not killed iilthough I ran a big chance. And so you see girls that's the way to get into the movies. If you are willing to shake hands with death and have some talent apart from beauty you can got a hearing,” she stated. GIRL POISONER.

IN THE REALM WHERE WOMAN REIGNS

Keeping House With the Hoopers

[The Hoopers, an average American family of five, living lu a suburban town, on a limited Income, will tell the readers of the Dally Times how the many present-day problems of the home are solved by working on the budget that Mrs. Hooper bus 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. Mrs Hooper hud said very little about Thanksgiving because they always took it as a matter of course that there would be the extra dinner which Included a turkey and Henry’s sister Belle came down from the city the night before and stayed over the week-end, so at breakfast she said to Mr. Hooper. “Is Belle coming down on tho train with you tonight or docs she plan to get here earlier? She didn’t say when she wrote me last week that she would be glad to cotpe down as usual, what time she planned to reach here.” “I’ll telephone her as soon as I get to the office and ask her,” answered Henry, “but fc expect she will come down when I do, which will be less trouble for you than to have her arriving in the middle of the afternoon.” “That's true,” replied Mrs. Hooper, “because I must go in town right after luncheon and do my shopping for tomorrow’s dinner.” “Are we going to have a turkey mother?” asked Helen. ”Oh yes,” her mother assured her, “It wouldn't seem like Thanksgiving to any of you unless you had a turkey, and Auntie Belle would be very distressed if I had chicken or roast pork Instead, though that would be really the sensible thing to do with a turkey costing as much as It do**s.” “Well, we went without turkey during the war,” Roger reminded her, “and for those two ygars it didn't seem a bit like Thanksgiving, so we really ought to buy a turkey and then If all the trimmln's are home made the dinner won't cost so much.” Mrs. Hooper laughed at Roger’s idea of cutting down the price of tho dinner, but she assured him that what he suggested was practically what she Intended to do. “I think I'll raise a couple of turkeys in the back yard next year,” said Roger, “don’t you think it would be a good idea mother?” "So, I don’t believe it would,” she answered. “Turkeys need a great deal more room than you have in the back yard. They need to roam around to ho healthful, but I've often thought we might have a few chickens.” “Not with the vegetable garden. Mary," interrupted Mr Hooper warnlngly. “They never yet went together successfully." “Well, I’m going to take It up seriously with you in the spring.” Mrs Hooper laughed. "I've always wanted half a dozen or so nice chickens, and there would sec in to be plenty of room in the back yard for that.” “No, I tell you right now." said Henry, "that It Isn’t practical, and I don't believe It Is fair to the neighbors to have chickens In a community as closely settled as Mayfield Is beginning to be.” “Oh, well, I give in,” said Mrs Hooper, “only wo could rent the lot next door, where the Brown’s house used to be If tho people who bought It are not going to build." ‘‘l'd love to take care of the chickens," said Helen. “Yes you would,” scoffod Roger. "IT! !>et you’d get pretty tired of it and it would be one more Job for me." “Wall we don't have to decide that question now,” said Mrs. Hooper forestalling an argument. “We've decided to have a turkey for dinner tomorrow so I shall have to go down town early and get the best bargain in birds that l can."

Mrs. Hooper’s marketing In the artor noon resulted In obtaining a very good turkey for which she paid $4. but i with tho exception of tho cranberries and some celery she bought nothing else for ; the dinner, and even with Belie as an extra member of the family she planned | to pnt together most of the meals for the rest of the week from tho contents of the leo-box, the preserve closet and the pantry shelves. Apples and grape fruit and some oranges and lemons were tho extent of her purchases for fruit and with the usual amount of dairy supplies her marketing was concluded. While she was preparing dinner she baked several pumpkin pies and cooked some pumpkin to he mashed and warmed for a vegetable for Saturday, and before she went to bed she prepared the turkey and put It In tho Ice-box ready for roasting In tho morning. With Belle to entertain him, Mr. Hooper didn’t miss her from her usual place In the livingroom nftor dinner, and when she Joined them a little before bed time everything had been done In preparation for tho Thanksgiving maal. Tho menu for the throe meals on Thanksgiving dav Is: BREAKFAST. Apple Rnnce. Cereal. Muffins. Hash. Coffee. DINNER. Cream of Tomato Soup. Roast Stuffed Turkey. Cranberry Jelly. Mashed Folato.

Daily Fashion Hints

\ i St^oLd

Every one, proletariat and ultra fashionable alike, is displaying a renewed interest In the costume blouse. One may pay anywhere from $5 up fer It. It Is perfectly reasonable, of course, that with out penchant for the suit should go an interest in blouses, and the costume blouse makes It possible, one’s coat removed, to be well dressed in a frock suitable for the occasion, no matter what it is. There are lace blouses for restaurant or informal evening wear, satin, crepe de chine and satin crepe trimmed with lace, two color blouses, vivid enough to make a color note with the most sedate of tailored suits, and, newest of all, whole blouses of velvet. Such a one is the blouse in the sketch—a lovely affair of dull blue chiffon velvet, the body plain and rather high in the neck, after tho French mode, trimmed gorgeously on sleeves and skirt. The trimming Is a lovely near batik design, stamped cm the velvet in dull Egyptian colorings, and with a suggestion of Egypt'ln the motifs of the design as well. The peplum of tho blouse Ls almost completely covered with the stamped design in dull green, deep blue, black, old gold and dull henna. The sleeves have a narrower border, in which the gold prevails, while the stamping is run up under the arms In the most unusual manner.

Boil these for twenty minutes, or until tender In salted water. Drain and keep hot while you make the following sauce; 1 Cook together in a saucepan a heaping j teaspoon, each, of butter and browned ! flour, and when these are blended to a browned roux, pour upon them a pint j of beef stock, and stir until smooth. Now i add four tablespoonfuls of tomato cati sup, six drops of Tabasco sauce, a teai spoonful of kitchen bouquet, a pinch of ! salt and a dash of paprika. Turn the boiled spaghetti into this sauce, stir all together and turn the mixture Into a greased pudding-dish. Sprinkle buttered crumbs and grated cheese over the top and bake until brown. CREAMED ASPARAGUS. Reject the lower halves of the aspara- . gus stalks and boil the upper halves until they are very tender. Then drain and chop. Cook together a tablespoouful of butter and two of flour until they bubble, pour on them a pint of milk with a bit of soda dissolved in it. Stir until smooth and of the consistency of cream. Pour into a greased pudding dish and bake covered for twenty minutes; uncover and brown. COCOANCT PIE. ; Cream a half cup of butter with two I scant cups of powdered sugar and when ! very light add half a gruted cocanut and a generous tablespoouful of rosewater. Now fold in quickly and lightly the stiffened whites of eggs turn Into a deep pie dish lined with puff pasts and bake in a quick oven. Eat cold with powdered . sugar and whipped cream flavored with i rose water. This Is delicious. When it is possible to do so buy the fresh coeoanut and grate It. The prepared or desiccated article put up in boxes may be used as a makeshift. It cai. never be a worthy substitute for the fresh and Juicy fruit. It is possible now to buy canned coeoanut in Its natural juice which Is very good. Helpful Household Hints CLEANING STONE YYUNDOW SILLS. Sandpaper window sills instead of scrubbing'.

More than a million members of the American Legion have pledged themselves t assist in the American Education Week campaign, Dec. 4-19, under the auspices of the Legion and the National Educational Association composed of school and college teachers. The purposes of the campaign are to inform the public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to secure support and cooperation of the public In meeting these needs. Louis IV. Hill, the railroad magnate, was unanimously elected mayor or “slippery Gulch, the wickedest city,” staged for one week at St. Paul, Minn., under the auspices of the American Legion. Governor Preus of Minnesota assumed the role of a bad man known as "Mexican Pete” and Lieutenant Governor Collins was his rival in the character of “Alkali Ike.” An effort to prohibit the holding of dances in the public school at Katonah, N. Y., was defeated by the American Legion and the Village Improvement So j ciety of that place. A bronze tablet has been erected at Brookline, Mass., to the memory of Albert E. Scott, a former newsboy known us “Scotty” who was killed bening his I machine gun in France. He la hefieved to have been the youngest American sol’dier killed In the World War. The American Legion participated in the un- ! veiling ceremony.
