About 1,500 children from the various orphans’ homes of Indianapolis and from the poor families of the city were the guests of the Indianapolis Kiwanis Club and Herbert Jennings, newly appointed manager of Loew's State Theater, at a special performance given at the theater today apd from the manner in which they received the two comedies presented on the screen they wore moye than pleased with their entertainment. The event was one of the regular Ki~* wanis Kiddies Parties and Mr. "Jennings, who was recently elected a member of the Indianapolis Kiwanis Club, joined with the Kiwhnians in making the event a success. They were also assisted by the Paramount Motion Xticture Company’s local office, which donated two special comedy pictures for the event, the pictures being ’’Sheriff Kell’s Tussle” and ‘‘The Kitchen Lady.” The Iniianapolis Street Railway Company donated the use of its cars to bring the children from the orphans' home to the theater and return, the Indianapolis police department distributed tickets among the poor children of the city and the Boy Scouts, under direction of F. O. Bel- ! zer, scout executice, assisted the regular ushering’ force at Loew's in handling the crowd. All emJHoyes of the theater were in their regular places and donated their services to make the event a regular Kiwanis success. The children from the Colored Orphans’ Home, the Indianapolis Orphons’ Home, the Lutheran Orphanage, the Day Nursery, the Board of Children’s Guardians Home and the General Protestant Orphans’ Home were the special guests and occupied space immediately in front of the stage and the children to whom the Ppliee had distributed tickets were given the remainder or' the auditorium. The children first had their picture taken in front of the theater ami were then conducted to their seats. For about two hours they laughed at the comedies presented for their approval. President Walter T. White of 4 the Kiwanis Club was on hand early to assist in taking care of the children and he was assisted by other members of the club's orphan committee, these being Frank Flanner, L. R. Klein Joe Moeslein, Sam Miller. Homer Wiegand, F. O. Belzer and Paul Donald Brown. Other members .of the Kiwanis Club also were present as they "just had to leave business long enough to see that the kiddies had a good time.” as one of the Kiwanians expressed it. President White stated that the Kiwanis Club always took an active part in helping make the lives of the orphans of the city as pleasant as possible and to aid the other less fortunates in enjoying some pleasure. He said the local club intended giving many such parties for the children and to take special care of the Boy Scouts, whom he termi '’wards of Kiwanis.”

CITIZENS FROM CARMEL PROTEST REFORMATORY (Continued From Page One.) if Ihose who made up tjje delegation knew what the reformatory is they would ask for it. “’The reformatory is not a prison, it is an educational Institution.” he said. “It will be one of the most beautiful of communities.” Mr. Dailey spoke of his trip to the east where he with others Inspected reformatories. He pointed out that in most eases the Institutions are in towns or adjoining towns and that the towns are proud of them. "You have the wrong Idea if you think the reformatory will dabuge your property,” he said. “It will increase the value of your property.” Following the charing Governor McCray said he did not believe a site would be decided o tjjoday. It is understood the Carmel delegation went to the statehouse at the invitation of the commission, which had' Informed them some time ago that if the selection ever narrowed down to Carmel they would be heard before a decision is made. It is understood also that the Monon railroad has offered to haul coal to Carmel at the same rale it is brought to Indianapolis as an inducement to havinb the institution on its right of way. MARRY TO GIVE CHILD A NAME Indictments Follow" Leaving of Baby in Home. A sequel to the mysterious abandonment of a baby a few weeks ago at the home of Carl Breathauer, 5127 Burgess avenue, came today when Breathauer and the mother. Josie Bradeson, of Wisconsin were married in' order to give the youngster 'a name. When it was shown to Judge James A. Collins of Criminal Court where the pair were arrainged on charges of child inflect, that the boy had been placed ir* an orphanage by the Juvenuiie Court, he insisted that they should be married. The marriage ceremony'was pronounced by Justice of the Peace L. J. Kiefer and immediately afterward Deputy Prosecutor Sidney Miller announced that he would dismiss the charges against the couple. i The pair told the court officials that they would not live together. The abandoning of the baby caused a policy search for the mother which ended when she was located in a little Wisconsin town. Breathauer at first denied knowledge of the affair, but was indicted by the Marion County grand along with the mother. Mrs. Cowger Funeral to Be Held Monday The funeral of Mrs. Eva M.

COMMISSION WILL ASK FOR WIDER BRIDGE City Plan'Body to Exercise Its Right in Delaware Street Improvement. A step was taken toward the first exercise of its right to pass upon all plans for public buildings and bridges by the city plan commission Friday afternoon when it was decided that srobn L. Elliott, city civil engineer and ex-officio member of the commission, should confer with the board of park commissioners and county commissioners relative to the width of the proposed Delaware street bridge over Fall Creek. The county commissioners, in preliminary discussions, have expressed Intention to build a bridge with forty-foot roadway and six-foot sidewalks. Members of the plan commission, who believe that main thoroughfares, in general, should be v 100 feet wide do not believe forty-feet is sufficient width fry a crossing of the creek on so important a highway. President Edward tT. Raub of the commission recalled the section of the city plan law requiring the commission's approval of ail public structures before they can be erected in Indianapolis, which had been almost lost sight of since the commission was established. President Raub was re-elected for a year as were Vice President Emerson W. Chaille and Executive Secretary Lawrence V. Sheridan. > The commission sent its report fAr 1021 to Mayor Samuel Lewis Shank The report shows that preliminaries have been cleared to the point where actual study of the problem of zoning has been begun. Os the $6,000 appropirated for the commission’s use in 1921 ony $2,879.57 was used. The commission expects to present a zoning ordinance to the city council this year.

WISH PUBLIC TO ASK HIKE IN CARFARE (Continued From Page One.) Union, one by the railroad labor unions not members of the C. L. U„ and one representative each of the twenty-two civic societies to meet next Saturday afternoon at 2 o’clock to dig into the utility’s problem and see what Is needed. To this committee will be referred a proposal, offered in the conference by representatives of the Southeastern Civic Improvement Club, that the city guarantee a bond issue of not more than $3,-" 000,000 by the company with which to make the needed Improvements, such issue to be made, expended and retired under supervision of an advisory commission of nine‘cltizen3. The meeting was marked by a slight clash between Dr. Jameson and A. IV. Lyday, one of the delegates from the Central Labor Union to the conference. Labor unions, civic and business clubs were invited to send representatives. Mayor Shank made the proceedings of farther interest to onlookers by au. explanation of bis espousal of a two-eent increase in street carfare early this week. The mayor told newspapermen that could be quoted as saying that in his opinion what was needed to insure continuation of street car service Is a two-cent increase in fare. Today he said that he wanted everybody to understand that in so saying he was expressing only the opinion of “Lew” Shank, the private citizen and not the mayor of Indianapolis. As mayor, he said, he had an open mind, ready to do the bidding of the citizens. This, he said, was why he had called the conference. REASON# FOR NOT SELLING PROPERTY. In answer to Mr. Shank’s question about selling company property and using the proceeds on betterments, Mr. Todd declared that the company would like very (well to dispose of "the piece at Alabama and Eighteenth streets anil has tried to but can’t get a buyer; that the College avenue barn Is being used for car storage; that the company would be glad, if it could at a good price, to sell a part of the fairground gravel pile and loop property; that the Shelby street barns already belong to the city; that- the gravel pit in White River cannot be parted with because it saves money, and that the Louisiana stre barns are the most important In the sjstcm. I)r. Jameson took the floor from Mr. Todd and said he personally opposes the sale of Fairview Park to commercial buyers because he always has felt that It should be preserved as a beauty spot. Mr. Shank suggested that he give it to the city. Dr. Jameson replied that the interests of the stockholders prevented that. Mr. Todd continued, explaining that the company also would like to/sell the property just’north of the Terminal building, with ninety-five feet on Illinois' street, but has not been able, to find a buyer with the right price. GKKNEK SUGGESTS COMMITTEE. John F. Gekner. attorney, was the first to suggest that Dr. Jameson's invitation that the company's affairs bo given a thorough .scrutiny by the putfilc be accepted through the appointment of a small committee. He proposed that five men from the Central Labor Union and five from the Chamber of Commerce be named. , % For once the great mass of people who are neither labor unionists or capitalists were represented and their champions were on the job the minute this Mol And HeaJinq p - : i&ktesSkin Heaifh

Women’s Clubs Give Real Opportunities in World

\ j!* . mm wnm MISS NINA L. COX. State President Business and Professional Wo . en’s Club.

By JULIA C. HENDERSON. Perhaps no organizations of women ■are forging to the front and receiving the recognition they dseerve as are the clubs of ’ business and professional women throughout the country. Coming from a business life full of ex actness and a d-A md for efficiency, they enter club life that they may have intimate contact with representative women engaged in the different occupations and discuss tlie things which shall enable them to meet more intelligently the problems ami responsibilities of Business life, at the same time realizing the value of coming together in a social way, which means much to an active’business woman. The friendships formed in these gatherings are enduring and helpful, and the social side of Club life is a point which is beiiig emphasized by this group, fellowship taking* its place along side with service. The coming convention of the Indiana Federation of Business and Professional Women’s Clubs, which will hold its allday session March’ls at the Hotel Lincoln, promises much of interest to the business women of the State. The clubs will be welcomed by Miss Elsie Green, assistant secretary of the Chamber of Commerce. The morning session will be given ■over to the business of the convention, when reports from the president, secretary and treasurer will be heard. “Club Mechanics'' will be discussed by Miss Erhelwyn* Miller of Franklin, who also will talk on program work. Miss Ptolla Clodfelter of Crawtordsvllle. on “Membership,” and Mrs. Louise Meyers of Anderson, on “Finance.” Miss Nora Kerch of Louisville, will ~ suggestion was jnade. Sumner Clancy, secretary of the Northeastern Civic Improvement Association, pointed out the fact that the great .bulk of the people are neither so-called capitalists or laborers, and It would be manifestly tin fair to leave them off the committee. Mr. Gekner agreed to amend his suggestion to include the civic organizations. Mr. Clancy said that as a representative of his body he was prepared to state that if upon proper inquiry it is shown that the company needs an increased fare and that such Increase will be for a specified time only, that trnns fers shall be free and that the increased revenues will be used for betterment of service such as to be tangibly iu evidence in a reasonable time, bis association would not be opposed to a higher fare. Several other representatives of civic organizations agreed with him. Then representatives of railroad labor unions pointed out that they are not members of the Central Labor Union, so they were granted one representative on the committee. J. F. WHITE PRESENTS BOND ISSUE PROPOSAL. John F. Whito presented the proposal that the city guarantee a $3,000,000 bond Issue for the company with which to make improvements. The proposal is contingent upon its legality. It provides* that the street railway company establish a sinking -fund to retire the bonds-in ten or fifteen years; that the bond money be used only for improvement and replacement purposes and shall not become part of the capital account or be used in any other way for the benefit of stockholders; that there lie no change in fares, for the time being; that tbo mayor be empowered to appoint one city representative on the board of directors of the company; that tf(e mayor appoint an advisory board consisting of one each, from the b#ird of public works, board of public safety, city plan

A number of taxpayers remonstrated against the county council selling $213,000 worth of bonds for the improvement of the Hessong road ns a county unit road.

INDIANAPOLIS FAR AHEAD IN CONSTRUCTION Outstrips Larger Cities in Valuation of New Buildings in 1921. Although far below them in population, Indianapolis outstripped Kans. s City, St. Louis and New Orleans in valuation of buildings erected in 1921, the annual national building report of the American .Contractor, Chicago building trade Journal. made public today, shows. The’ Indianapolis record, as announced some time ago. was $18,328965. The report also shows that although twenty-second in population among cities of the United States, Indianapolis was fourteenth in valuation of construction in 1921, n year in which records were shattered all over the country. in the fuee of the big showing in 1921. Ifcdianapolis temporarily lost her place in the building sun last month. While there was a national gain of 125 per cent the tirure for January, #)2l, this city showed a loss of 44 per cent. The number of permits, however, was Increased In January last year 3,”.l permits were issued for construction valued at $1,025. 529 as compared with 403 permits valued at $580,706 last month. Francis L. Hamilton, city commissioner of buildings said that the loss was due to the fact that plans for several big building projects have been held up for approval, in his office. Some, new types of construction are involved which it was deemed wise to thoroughly invesiigate before approving. , Several of then,, projects are now ready for issuance of permits and the February building report very likely will show a revival that , will put Indianapolis back in the first rank, he said. LEWIS VICTOR OVER HOWAT BY 103 VOTES (Confirmed Front Page One.) sprang the unexpected. When the demonstration was at its wildest the grayhalred "Mother” of the workers made hc*r way to the front of the hall and the shouting vus turned into an uproarious ovation. ~’ "The eyes of the world are on you," she told the 2,000 delegates when she finally syceeeded in silencing them. "Wherever the electric current touches, the world, is watching.

She praised Howat ns a flhting leader, then turned to the International officials and urged the miners to stand behind them—“your leaders” Throughout last night a last ditch fight was staged with victory and defeat in the offing. The Lewis forces marshaled their complete strength for a roundup of the 150 votes, realizing that a substantial number were needed to make their victory complete. "Get one hundred.” was the slogan of the Lewis baud last night. Benjamin J.

Forty State teachers attended a morning session and a luncheon at the Severin at noon. An address was given by Benjamin J Burris, State superintendent of public instruction, in which he urged closer cooperation between the teachers of the rural schools and the school patrons.

Olcott of North Vernon, president of the club, 'gave a talk on tho “Individuality of the Teacher,” She urged that teachers do more thinking for themselves. There is gpeat opportunity for the rural teacher to take the | initiative in inaugurating ideas for the betterment of the schools, she said.
