‘STRAYED INTO WRONG ARMY’ A. is. F. Man Expresses View £ of Senator Tom Watson. Belief that Senator Tom Watson, Georgia, had “strayed into the wrong army” when making his charges before Congress of alleged hangings in the A. E. F., has been expressed by "W. S., Scranton, Pa.,” in a letter to American Legion national headquarter* here. “W. S.” details the only casualty in his “outfit” other than those inflicted by the Boches. “A corporal swallowed some coffee which a dizzy K. P. had held a lantern oxer, letting a couple of drops of kerosene fall into it,” he said. “The corporal didn't feel like eating for a week and washed his mouth out with commissary soap.” In further declaration of the “sad lack of hangings, drawings, quarterings and draggings down hill in nail-lined barrels by horses going four different ways,” tko aitLor hates to admit that “of all the men who went to war from my town, not one of them was shot at sunrise or any other time for wearing boots at reveille.” Os the eight men in his squad. “W. S.” declares that Seven escaped the war unhanged, and adds: “The eighth rests in an honorable grave on the slopes below the village of Romange. He died of a machine gun wound in the face of the enemy—not, Senator Watson, of a taut rope in the presence of a lot of gawking lieutenant colonels (I don’t suppose they'd let the privates in on a thing like that). • “But there's one thing they would have let us In on. They might not have let us see all the company punishment execui tions Senator Watson tells about, but ' don’t you suppose the underground wirei less of soldiery would have spread the news around ?”

ADD NEW C. OF C. MEMBERS Mrs. McWhirter Assisted by Competent Committee. Favorable reports from the women who are assisting Mrs. Felix T. McWhirter in the effort of the membership committee of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce to increase the number of women identified with the organization, i indicate that the campaign will be a suc- ! cess. The membership of the Chamber when this intensive effort is finished will run to more than 4.700, according to Harper J. Bansburg, chairman of the Chamber membership committee. It is pointed out by Mr. Ransburg that once a person became identified with the Chamber of Commerce that he usually retains hs membershp. “The membership of the Chamber has grown from less than 000 in the past four years,” said Mr. Ransberg. “Without question it will be to the 5,000 mark by spring. The ambition of officers of the Chamber is to make it the largest In the world in proportion to the population of the city. They hope to see the Chamber with a membership of nine or ten thousand within the next few years.” The women who are assisting Mrs. McWhirter in the drive to interest more Indianapolis women in Chamber work include: Mrs. Ralph Kencington, Mrs. Emma Pierce Bassett, Mrs. 13. O. Hamilton, Mrs. Edward Ferger, Miss Elizabeth Rainey, Mrs. Samuel R. Artman, Mrs. George C. Finfrock. Mrs. J. Gardner WilMrs. W. H. Hart, Mrs. A. J.

Tiny Joe Starts Banking Business to Aid Armenians “Joseph Asbury, Jr., banker.” This is the way the sign reads on the newest financial institution in town. Tiny Joe, who is 5 and has established his ioy bank at his home in his nursery, 1824 Ashland avenue, explains to his patrons he is in the biggest business in the world —that of life-saving. It so happens the new venture is an “Armenian bank” and the largest deposit accepted is a penny. Joe saw a picture of an Armenian baby whose parents had been slain crying for food —hence the bank. His goal is 500 pennies by Christmas. Five dollars will support a child for a month. That the bank is prospering is evidenced by the fact that the corner druggist, the ice man and the vegetable vender all growl because no one on the streets seems to have pennies any more with which to make change. President Joe of the Armenian bank knows where the pennies find their way.

HOSPITAL TO HAVE LIBRARY SERVICE Hundreds of Books Sent for Permanent Collection. Patients at the city hospital are soon to have the benefit of Indianapolis Public Library service, according to an announcement by Charles S. Rush, city librarian. A collection of several hundred books is being sent out from Central Library to form a -permanent collection at the hospital. This collection will be under the supervision of Miss Edna Levey, a graduate of last year's library training class and of Vassar College in the class of 1020, who has volunteered her services for the hospital library work. In addition to giving out books Miss Levey will read to the older patients and tell stories to the children. One of the interesting features of the new book service is to be a speciallyconstructed, rubber-tired hospital book wagon for use in carrying books around the hospital to the patients. In addition to space for books it will have a special charging tray where cards containing the record of books lent will be kept. Miss Alida Winkelman, director of social service at the city hospital, who is enthusiastic about the new library service, is taking steps to raise the SSO necessary for the book wagon among Indianapolis girls’ and women's clubs. The following clubs have contributed: Prospect Branch Library Girls’ Club, $10; Delta Delta Rho Sorority, $5; The Dorcas Society of the Woodruff Baptist Church, $7. The Girl Scouts have also promised assistance to the movement.
