PENOBSCOT PRINCESS TO SING HERE
■ -
The members of the Woman's Department Club will be entertained Sunday afternoon, by a recital of Indian songs, dances and folk lore Interpreted by the Princess Watahwaso, a direct descendant of the Penobscot Indians. The Princess has a beautiful mezzo-soprano voice. When the princess was a little girl she was most fortunate In having an Indian chieftain father, who welcomed white people and their influences. Warahweso’s father was a recognized authority in Indian history and folk lore, and an orator of charm, and often he was called to speak In public places, fdauy times he took the little princess with him where she would dance and sing with remarkable skill. Up until the princess was almost grown she had for her tu-
Tubercular Children Attend Public Schools Health Board Head Says City Should Have Many Fresh Air Institutions.
There are children going to school in Indianapolis every day who are afflicted with tuberculosis and pass the disease along to healthy children around them. This was one of the assertions mrfde todav by Dr Herman G. Morgan, secretary of the board of public health, in a statement setting out the fact that there are tram five to fifteen underweight children in every room in public, private and parochial schools, who ought to be given special nutritional supervision atul bo educated in fresh air schools. If Indianapolis is to discharge her duty to her future citizens she must In the near future provide a fresh air school for every radius of fifteen blocks in the city, maintain nutritional classes at every school building, stop trying to force the physically weak student to keep up with the’ mental and physical pace set by the sturdy child and provide a school nurse and proper medical supervision for every school. Dr. Morgan said. There are only five places where outdoor classes are conducted In the city and only four or five where real nutritional supervision is given. One of the open air places is the I’otter fresh air school at Arsenal Technical High school. This is an excellent Institution, Dr. Morgan said, but it can not take care of the situation alone because the und<T nourished- and tubercular pupil should not be compelled to travel long distances from his home. REPORTS OF SCHOOL NURSES. Dr. Morgan’s statement was made after the twenty-two school nurses had conducted a survey of the thirty five public schools to which they The nurses work under the supervision of : the city health department. Dr. Morgan believes tliolr number should be more than doubled. Samples of conditions which prevail were picked from the nurses’ reports. Dr. Morgan said that at public school I No. 4. 650 U'e-t Michigan street, there are sixty-nine children who need fresh Rlr schooling and special health sitpervl- ! slon. At public school No. 28, 931 Fletehier avenue, ninety-five children were found who would he benefited by attend- ; tug nutritional clnsses. many of whom : are candidates for a fresh a'lr school. In schools Nos. 61. 1233 Shelby street, and 13, 1001 East Palmer street, nurses found twenty-four children who gave a direct history either of exposure to tuberculosis or cam* 1 from parents either Infected with or dead from tuberculosis “Such a group of children as these twenty-four In Schools No. 61 and IS, being required to come up to a certain standard of education and play, based ; upon the abilities of the healthy childi ren, are being required to do a thing that i not only is detrimental to their own welfare. but also are exposing the healthy j children to the disease,” said the health ; officer. i “A child is In school practically for j nine months of the year from the age H of j from six to fourteen or fweuty-four If ho

The field of child by giene in public health work has for its purpo-e the detection of physical defects In their incipient-/ and their correction and eradication at the earliest possible moment. “Surveys ns to health conditions among children of school age show that in Indianapolis as -.veil as In every other city there are children in school who, if permitted to reach adult life without having .their physical defects corrected, cannot attain the highest degree of • (fl clcncy and cannot fulfill their obligations as citizens. "Steps have beeu taken anil are now In operation In a small way for dealing with the problems of child hygiene. Pc'haps one of the surprising things In a survey of school children of Indian spoils is the large percentage of them that -are underweight. This group, of which there are s. ine in every school room, should be given a thorough physical examination In order to determine causes for tbe'r low physical standards and when the reason Is found corrective measures should be put in operation at once. “Following closely in connection with underweight are defects In sight, hearing, teeth, and pretubercnlar conditions which, when taken in time, are easy to correct and will not only benefit the child at the present time and make It more competent in school work, but will insure Its health In the future. “Many children who fall In the underweight, anaemic, poorly nourished group are greatly benefit by being schooled in a fresh air room, particularly as many In this classification have a family history of tuberculosis.” CONDITIONS NAME AT ALL BUILDINGS. The conditions found at the four schools rlttdl above are typical of practically every building. Dr. Morgan said. “Indianapolis cannot afford to n -glect the health of her school children. There should be n school nurse and adequate medical Inspection at every school in the city, prlvute, parochial and public, it Is Just as essential for a child to be graded on his physical fitness as upon his academic knowledge. Each child should be given a health grade card when he enters school and that card should he carefully marked and carried through his entire school life. ‘‘The nutritional work now being carried on In Indianapolis, from a standpoint of disease prevention and physical fitness among children In the underweight classification cannot be too highly commended. The only objection is that there is not such a class in every school.”

CONGRESS HAS KEY TO WORLD'S HOPE OF PEACE Council of Reduction of Armament Battles Right On. Special to Indiana Dally Times and Philadelphia rubllc. Ledge* By CONSTANCE DREXLL. WASHINGTON, March I'.—That the four-power pact has failed to raise a war scare even among most ardeut advocates of peace Is proved by the advice to support It, contained in the current issue of the National Council for Reduction of Armament bulletin. “Wo cannot do otherwise than continue urging loyal support fo* this and all tho treaties as the basis for our whole peace program,” it says. About twenty national organizations affiliated with this council were formed Just prior to the Washington conference to support its efforts toward peaceful solutions of controversies between nations. The majority of tho affiliated organizations are women's. A meeting of representatives of all lias been ca led at council headquarters for April 4. At that time questions of policy will be discussed. They will be referred to the numerous women's conventions tft be held within the next two or three months.
ISSUES FORTNIGHTLY BULLETINS. Just at present the most outstanding activity of the council is its fortnightly bulletin, from which we have already quoted. It Is written at headquarters In the National Capitol. To whom Is It sent and what is Its influence? It Is sent to responsible national and State officers of the organizations that are affiliated to form the council; several hundred speakers and lecturers; nil members of branches of Congress, State Governors and other political leaders of all parties. Washington newspaper correspondents: national peace organizai lions In England, France, Germany, Austria, Poland and Japan, and some thousands of men nnd women who have asked to he on the list. , 1 The bulletin Is Important because In many quarters It Is considered the mouthpiece of sane, conservative people who believe in peace rather than in war as the theory of life. In addition to urging support of the four-power pact whose fate the Senate will decide by voting on March 24, the council takes up the Army and Navy appropriations now before Congress. "The question has been agitated for many weeks past Today's bulletin points out that “the world's hopes arc In fotigr-s.'’ It says “The discussion in Congress of our appropriations for the Army and Navy for 1923 has more than national significance For three years the common people of the civilized world have been praying for relief from these burdens that are breaking their backs. They looked to Taris to save them, but It brought no help. Governments were not ready to disarm." WANTS AMERICA TO LEAD WAY. The bulletin contends that the world Is now ready for more reduction of armaments and wants America to lead the way. It wants a 50 per cent cut In the Army and Navy appropriations, from $790,<Ai,000 to $400,000,000 in support of which Is stated: "The Nation cannot afford with Its debt and Its unemployment and Its bus! ness stagnation and the high cost of living to spend more than $400,000,000 In preparing for • remote contingency, viz: a conceivable war with some unknown enemy In som* future generation. No business man on earth would be so foolish.” They claim that the people whose cry led to the railing of the conference ought

Princess or \ Adventuress?
An expedit.ion,r>lanned to reopen an abandoned mine In the Interior of Mexico, Is being sent out by Henry Jarnffyce, capitalist of New York. Richard Henry Gladney, young portrait painter, and cousin of Jnrndyce, Joins the group for the sake of adventure. Sonora Trulmjar, alleged princess, claims that the mine to be worked by the Jarndyce Company really belongs to her by right of inheritance and was wrongfully taken from her dead father. She accompanies the expedition In the expectation of taking possession. While making the trip from New York to Vera Cruz exciting events take place. An attempt Is made to destroy the mining machinery on hoard the vessel. Plots and Intrigues are plentiful. Follow the story from here. CHAPTER V—Continued “Barnette and Mora can take a trick at it. It won’t need much guarding tonight after this.” So It nappened after ail that. I did not paint the “Princess Tchacalca.” “Where did I get my hurt?” she asked in due time. “Where do most people get hurts at sea, if not on a slippery deck in a storm?” was my reply. “Wasn't there some sort of a fight on the deck during the storm?" “W’as there?” “Yes, pistol shots were heard.” “Was anybody lilt?” The “Princess," who called herself Sonora Trabajar. could not say. She was all sympathy with me because I had met with that accident on the slippery decking. “So? You are Senor Jamdyce’s cousin?” she asked me. “Who told you that, pray?" ‘‘And an artist of nation-wide fame on account of your picture, ‘The Genii i of the Smelter?’” "Who Is your informant?" "Oh, I have seen the picture, and T have a copy of ‘Who’s Who’ in my cabin Wonderful picture, ‘The Genii of the i Smeller.’ ” We promenaded the wet deck with poor Nelson always In the offing till half past 16. when he came in for his inning. At 12 Aguaros called for mo and asked rue to go below with him to watch the storage passengers at their food. We went below. He steered me about the rocking runways lest I come to further grief with my hurt shoulder. The steerage nnd third-class sat at long tables, bench and tables built in one piece out of pitch pine. The edge “f the tables had little strips nailed to them to keep the dishes from caroming into the laps jof the caters ns the ship rolled. They were eating light bread, chicory coffee,’ and a thick mutton stew, and the odor 'of It all mixed with the smell of bilge water nnd hot oil went to the pit of my stnmaoh like a blow. We went along tiic table from end to end and looked lno the faces of the passengers—lrish. Scandinavians and negroes, mixed together *higgled!y-plgglodly. I knew I should know ray man if he were there because of hls size and because I had seen his face distinctly In the flash of lightning. We came upon him with his right arm in a sling lie was a big, burly brute, probably Irish-American, with thick, slavering Ups, a close cropped, bumpy head, and a left ear that looked as If a dog had worried it. “Aren't you the man they used to call ‘Battling Bonrks?'" asked Aguaros. "Wot s that to you, mister? ' muttered the other. “Oh, nothing much. I used to bet on you in the prize ring.,that's nil. And say, Bourke," in a lowered key, “I'm betting on you still. “Will yon meet me in the second class smoking room tonight at S?” "Any money in it?" "That's according, I’ve got the money, and I put it out sometimes.” ’’l’ll come.” “Bourke. this gentleman is an artist j Pin sli wing Til in ar quid to see if he can 'find anything worth painting down here.” "Yes. T knew Vs s artist,” growled 1 Bourke with a dour smile. “Bullet wound?" asked Aguaros casui ally, touching the other's bandage. "No: knife, it was a little row in the steerage last night " j “Yes: I heard there was some shooting: that's the reason I thought it was a bullet wound ” “Well, think again." growled the big fellow nnd turned to his mutton. “You're certainly an artist yourself,” I complimented Aguaros, as we climbed from stinking hold to the sweet air of the rocking decks. "Diplomacy is better than war.” he commented. “I guess you didn't recognize any of the rest of them down thero?" * “No. he's the only man whose face I saw. He recognized me." "He's one of our laborers: nearly all flic men at that end of the tahie are. That's tli had part Os it: someone is trifling v itli them " I started to tell him about Nelson’s and Senora Trabn.lar's talk, and he cut me short with: "Yes. Prothro told me.” Then he said: “You lead her up to the right plaee If you can and offer to get those blue prints for her. We want to find out Just whom she's working for if we can.” “Isn't it Slf.rt?” “He's working for somebody higher tip ” The storm that came upon us off the Florida Keys was only the forerunner of n continuous hurricane out of the southwest. The ship was delayed. Everybody on board, except the oldest sailors, got seasick. And then, finally, three days late, we gradually emerged into a pleasant sen, with the prospect of making Vera t’ruz that night. I was a fairly docent sailor, a far better one .than Nelson, and I had utilized nil the time I wasn't down mysrlf. to nurse as tenderly ns n lover the w.dow of the Cuban hanker. Then that day Prothro came to me. “Glad,” he said. “I want you to do .something for me.”
By AUGUSTIN W. BREEDEN
“What Is It?” “Convince Nelson that his Senora Trabajar Is a flirt and a fraud.” “How can I?” , “Well, I'vo just had a heated argument with him in which I told him that I would convince him that she was a crook. I’ve got him to agree to hide tonight behind a certain pair of deck chairs so that I may demonstrate to him what she is. You and she are to occupy. those two chairs and you are to draw her out.” "Would that convince him?” “If it doesn’t, then he's a hopeless fool, and we'il have to send him back to New York. It's the -plans of the pumping station sha wants, isn’t It?” “How can I reply without saying yes?” “Say, Glad, you've got that questioning business down fine. Listen; touight we will give you tl-e blueprints by which our pumping station Is to be installed, and give you a little flnsnlight so you can show her the title at the top of the first page. Having shown her this much, hold back till you have made her promise something that will compromise her even In tho eyes of such % fool as Nelson.” That evening Just after dinner I went on deck. The sea was calm and beautiful. It was one of those beautiful sea twilights when a young man of a romantic disposition might be forgiven for losing bis head to even the most commonplace of women; and certainly the Cuban widow, if such she were, was far from commonplace. .She came up to me on the deck although Nelson was only a little way behind her, still looking a sort of candle green from his sea sickness. “Meet me at this spot tonight at 10:30,“I mumured. “I will have the blueprints of the pumping station with me.” “Tonight at 10:30,” she lisped and gave mo n ravishing look and began to lalk of different matters as Nelson strolled up ’ , CHAPTER VI. That night a little Defore 10:30 I picked up the “Princess Ichachalulu," and we promenaded slowly around the deck ana seated ourselves at the appointed place. A sea fog, making the air sultry with Its closeness, shut out the great stars that had been shining an hour earlier. The steward had discreetly dimmed most ol the lights to encourage the tete-a-tetes !that always develop on the last night of any voyage. I learned later that he had done this for a handsome bride from Barnette. I managed to bring abtfut a regular lovers' affair. I told Senora Trabajar the old story of having fallen in love with her at first sight and of how I bed been eaten up with Jealousy at her noticing Nelson. I pretended to believe every thing told me about being the heir to tho Yeta do Oro mine, which my Yankee cousin had basely stolen from her guardian. Our talk was a strange mixture of business and sentiment, and was punctuated from time to time with oscillatory smackings which I saw to it were loud enough. Also when she did not speak loud enough in making some perfidious speech, I pretended not to heal and made her speak louder. My only fear was that Nelson might have failed at the last minute to conceal himself behind our chairs. (To Be Continued.) PUSS IN BOOTS, JR. * By DAVID CORY. After ho had eaten his t. reakfast at the farmhouse l’uss again mounted his Good Gray Horse and rode away. And as he trotted along he came up with a man on horseback. “John Cook had a little gray mare, lie, haw, hum! Her back stood up and her bones they were bare, i Tie. haw, limn! John Cook was riding up Sutter's Bank. ; He, haw, bum! |.\nd there his nag did kick atic prank, ! He, haw, hum! All this took place so suddenly that Puss had barely time to escape tie heels ;of the little mare. But. goodness: how John Cook did swear! He beat his mare with whip and spur. He was mosi cruelly hard on her. And this made Puss Junior furious and lie drew his sword aud commanded John Cook to stop. But all of a sudden, Just as | “John Cook was riding up Shutter's Hill, He, haw, hum! Ills mare fell down and she made her will, He, haw, hum!” And after that: “The bridle nnd saddle were laid on the shelf, He, haw, hum! If you want any more you may sing it yourself! He, haw, hum!” : said John Cook, angrily, coming out of the stable door, for Puss had followed him up the hill, so angry that he had a good mind to teach him a lesson for being so cruel. “Bah!" exclaimed runs Junior. “You are a brave man to beat a little mare. Very brave, indeed. Come out here and I will cross swords with you; that is, if a big hulking swain like you knows what a sword is!” "Scat!” yelled John Cook, but before be could repeat his insulting words. Puss had leaped from the saddle and pinked the big bully in the leg with his sword. “Stand and fight, you coward!” cried Puss, his whiskers bristling with anger and his tail as big around as a rolling pin. But John Cook had fled. He had run into the barn and barred the door. "He, he!” laughed the Good Gray Horse. “A brave man that! He runs at the prick of a pin!” and he gave a loud, sarcastic neigh. “I dare you come out.” called Puss, but John Cook was no warrior: he was just what his name implies: lie could beat an egg or mash a potato, but nothing more.—Copyright, 1922.

The Hoopers Tell How Five Live on a Limited Income [Tha Hoopers, an average American family of five, will tell the readers of tho Daily Times how the many present-day problems of the home are solved by working on the budget that Mrs. Hooper has evolved and found practical.

Now under my social head I arrange one set of my alphabet cards in their proper order. Then I use one card for each i name writing the surname first and the ! given name last and the address on a ■ lower separate line and in the remainder of the space I can write any other ini formation necessary to bo remembered j about the person.” j “That’s exactly the way I keep my I address record in my office,” said Henry, i admiringly. “Exactly.” said Mrs. Hooper as she hei gan to copy names out of her address | hook on to the cards, “and if I'm going to have a business corner in my kitchen I shall keep nil my records in a dignified, business way.” | “Henry didn't langh at her serious j tone because he knew that she meant | just exactly what she said and that this j was not a thing she would begin and j then never keep up, but that months from j now her address -file would he an accur- ! ate record of the names and places of ! residence or business location „of every j one with whom the Hooper family had ] any social or commercial intercourse and ■ that there would be no wild scrambling ! search whenever any one In the house- ; hold asked for an address. j “We must write to Mr. Allen. Henry,” ; she said as she carefully copied his name and address as the first one in the i file. “He will be pleased to hear about the new house, I know.” i “What is the second division In your file to be?” asked Henry, i “The Medical Record." answered Mrs. ! Hooper. “I’ll start that tomorrow night.” BREAKFAST.
