MEDICAL BODY PLANS TRIBUTE TO KIMBERLIN Marion County Society to Hold Memorial for Dead Physician. VICTIM OF ACCIDENT Memorial services will be held In memory of Dr. A. C. Kimberlin. OS, by the Marlon County Medical Society at the Indiana Dental College, Pennsylvania and Walnut streets, tonight. Dr. Kimberlin, who died from an accidental gunshot wound in the temple while on a bunting trip five miles west of Osgood, Ind., yesterday will be buried in Crown Hill Saturday. The funeral will be held Saturday morning from the residence. 1232 Park avenue, and will be private. Friends may view the body at the residence from 2 to 5 o'clock Friday afternoon. Dr. Kimberlin was one of the best known specialists in physical diagnosis in the State. With Dr. T. B. Noble, Sr., he drove from Indianapolis to Osgood early Wednesday in Dr. Noble's automobile. In Osgood they picked up Dr. Virgil H. Moon and his cousin, C. C. Moon, an Osgood hardware merchant, who Dr. Moon was visiting. The party hunted all morning and returned at noon to Dr. Noble's automobile, which had been left standing in the road about five miles west of town. The party were unloading their shotguns when there was a report and Dr. Kimberlin fell to the ground. WOUNDED PHYSICIAN ECSHED TO HOSPITAL. Without waiting to investigate, other than to determine that the wound was serious, Dr. Noble and Dr. Moon put Dr. Kimberlin in the car and started for the Methodist Hospital In Indianapolis. Dr. Kimberlin died, however, while they were speeding between Greenwood and Indianapolis. The fatal wound was in the temple, the discharge having passed through the glass of one of the doors of the automobile. Part of the shot and splinters of glass from the door were driven into the wound. When they reached the city the body was taken to the Methodist Hospital and Coroner Paul F. Robinson called. Later It was removed to the Flanner & Buchanan undertaking parlors, 320 North Illinois street and thence, to the residence. Neither Dr. Noble nor Dr. Moon knew whether the fatal shot came from Dr. Kimberlin's gun or that of C. C. Moon until Mr. Moon arrived in the city last evening and explained it was his weapon that was accidentally discharged. CORONER WILL INVESTIGATE. Coroner Robinson was not sure the case is within his jurisdiction, but said he would interview the members of the hunting party. Dr. Kimberlin had practiced medicine In Indianapolis for thirty-three years. His birthplace was Fisher's Station, twelve miles northeast of the city. He left the farm and worked his way through the Indiana University school of medicine being graduated in ISSS. His interneship was served at the city hospital. Besides connections with the city dispensary and other local hospitals. Dr. Kimberlin for several years was professor of the theory of the practice of medicine in the Indiana University School of Medicine. In addition to having been president of the Indiana State Medical Society and the County Medical Society, Dr. Kimberlin was a member of the Scottish Rite and the Central Avenue Methodist Church. The widow and four brothers: Dr T. A. Kimberlin and W. O. Kimberlin of Indianapolis; L. E. Kimberlin of Tulsa. Okla.. and C. F. Kimberlin of Greenfield, survive.

Harding to Make Formal Report on Conference WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.—President Harding ■will make a formal report to the country on the work of the arms conference, a member of the Administration today said. At the same time he may state more concretely than he hag up to the present his plans for an “Association of Nations." The report to the people Is to be made when President Harding sodmlts to the Senate for ratification the treaties resulting from the conference’s work. Senator Lodge, a member of the American delegation, said all the treaties probably would be submitted to the Senate at the same time. Thli would give the President an opportunity to sum up the accomplishments of the conclave In one comprehensive speech and give the Senate opportunity to consider each treaty In the light of all the others.

Women Will Keep Beacon Fires of Peace Burning

Special to Indiana Dally Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. By CONSTANCE DREXEL. WASHINGTON, Dec. 15. —That women will keep alive the desire for reduction of armaments and peaceful settlement of International affairs even after the close of the conference is indicated by , news reaching Washington from all parts of the country. Perhaps the most ambitious single event being planned is the mass meeting in ; Chicago's largest hall, the famous Audi--1 torium, obtained for the women's meetj ing Jan. 8, through the courtesy of the i Chicago Opera Company. The diversity of interest displayed in . the event is proved by the promise of Mary Garden to sing. Great opera singers often have been called upon in the past to sing “La Marsaillaise” or the j “Star-Spangled Banner" in order to arouse a Nation to war like fervor, but it is a sign of the new order of things i for a great singer to sing at a “women's ; national mass meeting for the reduction of armaments,” as the Chicago meeting I Is called. There Is some hope of obtaining the j President as the chief speaker, it was j learned here today, as he had expressed i himself in entire sympathy with the idea i of holding the meeting and said he would j come if It could be arranged. But his presence is hardly anticipated, and it is ! said Secretary Hoover and General Pershing will go. Mrs. James W. Morrison is the Chicago chairman of the meeting and has received the cooperation of twenty national women’s organizations' branches in. Illinois. WOMEN ACTIVE IN GOTHAM. Another sign of the activity of women outside of Washington which, however, is i always feit here, is a meeting at the i Hotel Astor in New York, when 2,000 women will attend the luncheon of the j New York City Federation of Women’s I Clubs. The occasion is an address by ! Mrs. Thomas G. Winter, president of Lie | General Federation of Women's Clubs, ; end one of the four women members of the advisory committee of the American delegation to the arms conference. Mrs. Winter will feature the work of two of the official organizations for the reduction of armament. They are the general committee on the limitation of armament, with Samuel Gompers and Oscar S. I Straus as honorary chairmen, and the national council for the limitation of arj inaments with about fifteen affiliated ; women’s organizations. Why have the Japanese been so inj sistent pn retaining their new battleship, j the Mutsu, which Secretary Hughes declared should be scrapped if America scraps some of our newets and finest ? The reason is that money for the ship was collected In small donations from the populations, which was told by the I government the Mutsu would save Japan, j The building of the battleship was used | to arouse pride of the people In a Japan | that would hold up her head , among the | nations of the world. It was to be a | symbol of their country’s daily increasing 1 M.ength and prestige. For this reason the Japanese delegates have insisted their : government could not now turn around | and tell the people the ship musi be ! scrapped. They have fought to retain j this vessel and apparently have won their i point, America and Great Britain also to : retain some vessels which the Hnghos | proposal had intended to discard. Os course, there is a great deal of logic in [Japan’s position, but on ‘he other hand, | one might ask why the scrapping of the j Mutsu might not have been made a drai mafic ge.-ture by tue government to dean- ' onstrate to the people all the more forcibly that the world now was entering j into new paths of endeavor and s<-rnp- ; ping many ideas, as well as battleships i of the past. J "The dynamic forces that make for world peace are formed when the young i are taught. The teacher, whether mother, priest or school master, Is the real maker ; of history and the school will shape tLdestiny of tomorrow,” is the opinion of the committee on foreign relations of the | National Education Association. Miss C. O. Williams of Memphis, of j the association which comprises most of | the public school teachers of the country, and Dr. Augustus O. Thomas, superi intendent of schools of Maine and chslr- | man of the association’s foreign relations committee, have made flying visits ;to Washington to bring to fruition a plan to conserve the results of the arms | conference by means of the schools of , each participating country. The field for endeavor Is so vast only vague be-

Is Every Day a . Backache Day? that a cold, a chill, or a strain, has likely weakened your kidneys and brought on that all-day backache; those sudden, stabbing pains; the headaches, dizziness and bladder difficulties. But fortunately, kidney disorders are usually easily corrected, if treated promptly. So don’t worry! Simply take things easier for awhile —get plenty of fresh air, rest and sleep, and help your weakened kidneys with Doan’s Kidney Pills. Doan’s have helped thousands and should help you.

FRANK CAGLER, Prop. Shot Repair Shop, 1217 E. New York St., Says; “My kidneys were weak and I had to set up two or throe times of a night to relieve he secretions. Shooting pains darted through my back when I stooped or moved quieklv and if I had been sitting for a time, 1 could hardly get up. I was in a run-down condition but aftep using several boxes of Doan’s Kidney Pills bought at tho Haag Drug Store, they gave me a cure which has lasted several years. I am glad to recommend Doan’s.”

WALLACE ASKS i LOAN EXTENSION Secretary of Agriculture Says All Should Help Bridge Crisis. Extension of loans by loan companies and a downward revision of farm rents are among the things advocated by Henry C. Wallace, Secretary of Agriculture, who 1 passed through Indianapolis yesterday j on his way from Des Moines. lowa, to j Cincinnati to address a meeting of the j Ohio State Grange. ! “It is time for everybody to turn to ! and help through this crisis,” Secretary Wallace said. “Loan companies should extend their loans if requested, and landlords should be induced to revise their leases to the advantage of the producer. “The farmer can not produce under conditions which make his work unprofitable and upon him, to a large extent, depends the prosperity of the remainder of the country. “After the upset of the war in which j thousands of young men were taken from I the farm and given guns, we should not t expect normal conditions to return nor normal relations to be resumed in agri- j culture until they return in all other, lines.” Upon the aggressiveness of Indiana bankers in pushing their claims for funds j from the war finance board depends the I extent to which farmers of the State | may expect to profit from farm loans. Sec- j retary Wallace said. According to hint j it is the aim of the War Finance Corpora- i tion to put out the money ns rapidly as the State committee can distribute it and there will be little difficulty if the local bankers act promptly in tho matter He said sh the Northwest $15,000,000 had been put out to help move the grain and in the South another $10,000,000 has been advanced to farmers on their cotton.

)kw Guinea /^Unexplored

KAIRUKU, New Guinea—Dear Dad; Being a magistrate in Papua is a job which calls for a great many things. He must have a working knowledge of surveying, medicine, storekeeping, agriculture, accountancy, mining, etc. He must have a thorough knowledge of the laws and ordinances in force in the territory, for through these and by the aid of his police he maintains law and order in his district. He is called upon to act as both magistrate and clerk of petty sessions; he is an inspector of native laborers working on the numerous plantations in his district; he acts as warden for the goldfields and mining registrar. He must sail his own boat —if he has a coastal district—drill his police, ar.d, generally speaking, control every item of government as it is known in more civilized lands. When he is not building or repairing his Jails and police barracks, or any other of the numerous buildings that comprise his headquarters, he is settling cases involving intricate native customs and traditions, many of which call for an Intimate knowledge of the people and

the country. He also is a maker of roads and bridges and this work occupies a very considerable portion of his time, for if the roads and -bridges are bad In his district communication also must be bad. Many of these duties ho carries out with inadequate material, but he seldom grtimbles—his life and work are full of obstacles, and overcoming difficulties seems to be his dally portion. In his spare time, so-called, he must explore the unknown portion of his district, and he does this often when he Is chasing “wanted men"—wanted for any one of the crimes In the calendar, but principally for murder. He may start out on the trail with as many as fifty warrants and seldom, does he return without a very high percentage of arrests. Often the chase leads over great mountains or through tremendous swampts and rivers but It makes no difference to the magistrate. W Ith a mere handful of native police he pursues his quest to the bitter end to return eventually to his station to a pile of work that wo til I frighten an ordinary man. It has been said that a magistrate in Papua must known everything and be able to do everything, and there is a tot of truth in this saying. The most

At Kairuku there is a jail—built In the native fashion, out of logs and iron—which houseß some forty prisoners convicted of offenses, ranging from nonpayment of taxes to sorcery. Every day they are taken out by the warder and

made to work. It wouldn't be considered hard work for the laborer In America, but to a Papuan It must seem backbreaking. Much of this work consists of pulling weeds, piling up cocoanuts, making garden and so on; although occasionally there is heavy carrying to do. The warder appears to be a conscientious old chap and Intent upon getting a lot of work out of his prisoners if one is to judge from his loud yells for them to speed up and keep bnsy. These prisoners brought up most of our equipment and stores from the landing place to the government storehouse, where Humphries took charge of everything and. with the aid of his detachmen of ponce, broke open cases and bags and began making up the loads for our adventure Into the trackless forests and mountains. Loads must weigh not more then fifty pounds or a carrier has a legitimate excuse for refusing to shoulder it <>r a load can be made up to a hundred pounds and two men will carry it with the aid of a pole balanced, on their shoulders. We established our literary and photographic workshops under the government house, which fortunately 1" lullt on stilts higher than a man's head.

For the first few days we shall be in territory which is fairly well under the control of the government. Then we shall* come to places where the natives have never fully recognized the government and where the wrong action or the least slip may send them against us. After that—well, who can tell? New Guinea is a strange land, the last of the places to keep most of its doors barred against the white man and civilization. It is one of the roughest countries in the world so far as It has been explored. From the veranda at Kairuku we can
