City Churches Building New Homes Adopt Community Ideas to Needs

Church Architecture in Indianapolis Has Changed in Last Fifteen Years to Meet Demands of Vicinity. Zy THE VISITOR. Church building in Indianapolis has taken on anew significance \uthin the last fifteen years as churches are now erected “to meet all demands of individuals and of the community,” according to Dr. C. H. Winders, executive secretary of the Church Federation of Indianapolis. To meet “all the demands ">f individuals and of the corin'unity,” the new churches recently completed, thoso Unde.* construction as well as the new structures being planned embrace plans to meet not only the religious demands of the neighborhood but also seek to furnish social rooms, dining-rooms, gymnasiums for the young people, shower baths, social rooms for the various organizations of the church and even moving picture entertainment. The change in church architecture reflects the development of community or neighborhood life and the church has met this development by bnilding community buildings like the recently dedicated Central Christian Church with its splendid equipment to meet “all demands.” To meet the community demands in the vicinity of Fortieth street and Capital avenue, members of the Columbia Place Christian Church with the support of the men and women who are not members of the church by generous contributions have nearly completed a $120,000 community center which will be known as the Capitol Avenue Christian Church. About eight months ago Rev. Griggs came from Fargo, N. D., to take his place as a community helper and pastor of the Columbia Place Christian Church at Fortieth street and Capitol avenue. He found a small membership. He realized that his church, which was unsulted to community demands, must become an everyday part in the life of the neighborhood. Within eight months time, the membership has been more than doubled and neighborhood interest has been so aroused over the need of a community center that not only members of the church, but those not directly affiliated with the Columbia Place Church have contributed sufficient sums to erect a modern church biuldiug to meet al demands.” THE WONDER CHURCH TO BE DEDICATED SOON. The spirit of this community and the work of the Rev. Griggs reflects the true value of Americanism as applied to religious life in the home and the neighborhood. According to the Rev. Griggs, lawyers, not members of the church, have become so interested in the community idea that they hare not only given money, but time of their office employes for the purpose of putting over

REV. EARL N. GRIGGS. Within eight months’ time, the Rev. Griggs with the cooperation of members of the Capitol Avenue Christian Church and men and women of the community, many of whom who are not connected with his church, has built a $120,000 community center. This church is now referred to as the “wonder church” of the city because its accompllchments have been so wonderful In eight months’ time.

a financial campaign In interest of the church. The community center part of the church Is nearing completion and probably will be dedicated about the middle of May. This structure contains a large auditorium which will be used for church services until the church auditorium proper is completed and when that is done tne community auditorium will be used for movie entertainments and similar recreation. The community center will furnish parlors, reading rooms, clubrooms, classrooms, a lecture room, a kitchen where banquets and luncheons may he prepared and where demonstrations in culinary arts may be given; a gymnasium where the boys and the young men can play basket-ball, handball, volley-ball and indoor baseball and where the girls of the neighborhood can obtain wholesome exercise under competent directors and the business man of the neighborhood can ‘ keep fit" by joining a gym class. The Rev. Mr. Griggs in a weekly publication put out In interest of the community center states additional purposes as follows: “Around the fireplace get acquainted with your neighbor. Motion pictures, run not for profit, but for education and entertainment; lectures and night classes; open forums and entertainment: lectures and night classes; open forums with different interests discussed by competent authorities; a kindergarten for your children; daily vacation Bible

rises a reading of the “Origin of Species und The Descent of Man.” (EDITOR’S NOTE—Pastor* of the city are invited and requested to send the subjects o' tlicir Sunday sermons nnd other church news to the Church Editor of th Times not later than 4 p. m. on Frlji.. s. Earlier In the week will be appreciated.) Hear! Hear! Here’s New G. O. P. ‘Saving’ WASHINGTON, March IS.—The nouse Sub-Committee on Naval Appropriations today reported that it has decided Upon reductions in the Navy which will save the taxpayers at least $175,000,000 in the next fiscal year. Os this saving $90,000,000 will be directly traceable to the recent arms conference agreements, this being the sum that ordinarily would be allowed the Navy for one year’s new construction work. The Navy appropriation bill to be reported to the House next week will carry “under $250,000,000,” according to Representative Fat Kelly, Michigan, Republican, chairman of the sub committee framing the measure. An enlisted personnel of 05,000 men has practically been agreed upon by the committee, Kelly said, adding '.he reductions from 97,000 men would make l’or a smaller but more efficient Navy. The commissioned personnel, Kelly said, probably would remain as it is, about 0,100 officers. Hubby ‘Worries’ Her; Attempts Suicide “Because her husband worried her," Mrs. Eva Hughes, 41, 331 Salem street, attempted to commit suicide by faking acid yesterday. Mr. Hughes told police he had found his wife standing behind j a door, with an empty bottle In her hand when he returned home from work 1 She was taken to the rity hospital, j where it was found that her mouth and throat had been burned severely.

Rev. E. N. Griggs , After Eight Months 9 Work , Nears Completion of Wonder Structure for Capitol Avenue People. school; library and reading room are among those benefits that may be had right here at your own door.” A LITTLE VISIT WITH REV. GRIGGS. The Visitor called upon Rev. Griggs the other day and chatted with him. He knows the need of a community and is convinced that it is the duty of his church to become "a seven-day institution.” He is a man of considerable physical strength. I easily see how the boys of a neighborhood would flock to a gym if he was going to conduct a gym class. He has personality nnd knowledge of the call of the community upon the church. “HoV did you build this wonder structure within eight months’ time?” I asked. He smiled and said: “There is no plan for success but work. We flrst tried to reach the young married people and the young people, too. “Our support does not come only from the membership of the church, but all men of the community are getting behind the movement. Lawyers who live in the community and some not members of the : church have not only aided in financing the undertaking, but have donated their office force to get out letters and circulars. The community idea has struck these men right.” The community center will he in charge |of a board of control. Three of these members will represent the coiomunl'y ! whe will be selected without regard to cre< 1 and the remainder will >e members o the church, two of whica must be mof'ers. i As the i*ev. Griggs puts it in bis publication, “The Capitol Avenue Christian Church Is putting every available dollar into this project. This church is not trying to advance any sectarian interest. It does see the need of a seven day religion which will care for the I whole man, his body, his mind, his soul.” v The Rev. Griggs is now making plans |to Install a radiophone so the people of the community may listen In on con- ! certs, rhurch services and sn news events. | Charles W. Richards, Leo Komlsky, Wallace O. Lee, Dr. Charles Mclntyre, ' Mrs. J. B. Demeree and many others have ntded the Rev Griggs la the community center idea. So this minister from North Dakota In eight months' time has united the desires of the people of the neighborhood and j now the wonder structure of the city J will become the center of all activity of i that neighborhood. j Other ministers of the city and congre- ' gatlons are working out the community : idea. The tabernacle Presbyterian Church is building anew structure at Thirty-Fourth street and Central avenue, which will cost about $250,000, according to Dr. Winders. Plans for building a new Methodist church along community lines are being made by members of the Maple Road Methodist Church. It will coßt In the neighborhood of $300,000.

THIRD TRIAL TO BE LONG AFFAIR Two Alternate Jurors Selected to Hear Arbuckle Evidence. SAN FRANCISCO, March 18.—That the third trial of Uoecoe (Fatty) Arbuckle for manslaughter will be a long drnwn out affair appeared certain today as selection of two alternates to sit throughout tho trial with the Jury was taken up. The purpose of the alternates is to replace any Juror should he become ill or incapacitated. In previous trials one alternate was considered sufficient, but on account of the prospects of the present trial stretching over at least a month, two alternates were decided upon. It was expected taking of testimony vouid begin Monday. SENATOR REED TO GIVE DECISION Will Tell Constituents of Intentions as Candidate. ST. LOUTS, Mo., March 18.—United States Senator James A. Reed, Kansas City, democrat, today said he would an- j nonnee Monday whether he will be a candidate for re-election. His friends say he will run again. If he does, he will be opposed by Brecken- i ridge Long, former third assistant secretary of State, who already has filed bis declaration for nomination. • Ed Glenn, Louisiana, Mo., who managed Champ Clark’s campaign, will be iu charge of Reed's primary campaign. Reed Is expected to open his campaign at Moberly within the next few days.

THIRD CONCERN CUTS PRICES IN ASPHALT PAYING (Continued From Page One.) Ing further the difference in cost to property owners between Trinidad and oil asphalt. The engineer says that either oil or Trinidad asphalt, properly laid, will make good pavements. Another development, in the asphalt war was that the Marion County Construction Company, the flrst concern to come down to a figure the engineer considered reasonable, out its price for permanent improvement with asphalt to anew low level of $2.96 a square yard. The lowest price the company had submitted previously was $3.01 a square yard. When Mr. Elliott went on the war path the average price of all contractors then bidding on permanent improvements was around $4.10 a square yard. The Marion County Construction Company's latest cut was on the permanent improvement of Maple street from McCarty to Morris streets. The board of works adopted a preliminary order for ; the use of asphalt in this improvement. ORDER FOR USE OF BITUMINOUS ASPHALT. A preliminary order for the use of bituminous concrete on the permanent improvement of Mansfield street from Twenty-First to Eighteenth street was made. This is the street upon which the Mansfield Engineering Company showed its price cutting hand by bidding $3.20 a square yard on asphalt and $2.91 a square yard on. bituminous concrete. Bituminous concrete is an asphaltic concrete material, generally cheaper in type than asphalt. The board of works itself gained a price cutting victory. It has left the asphalt war practically up to Mr. Elliott, Board Members W. H. Freeman and Dr. M. J. Spencer, even throwing what were considered a number of obstacles In his way through their early preference for higher priced Trinidad asphalt. Dr. Spencer and Mr. Freeman, however, decided several days ago to do a little fighting for lower prices on their own hook and rejected ail bids for the resurfacing with wooden block of New Jersey street from South street to Virginia avenue. The lowest bid received was from J. W. and VV. C. Martin at $13.99 a lineal foot of property frontage on block treated with coal tar oil and $14.19 a lineal foot of property frontage on block treated with distillate oil. The price a lineal foot of half intersections on both treatments was $25. At the time the board asked Mr. Elliott for his opinion and he said he did not believe tho contractors could get j much lower than this figure, but that lhe had no objection whatever to the i board rcadvertlslng. Mr. Freeman said i ho thought a much lower figure could i be obtained, so the bids were rejected. | LOWER PRICES ON ! SECOND BIDDING. | Friday the second bidding found the | Mead Construction Company pricing j wooden block treated with coal tar at sll 90 a lineal foot of property frontage i and S2O a lineal foot of half intersections J and $12.28 on property frontage and s2l 87 on intersections for block treated with distillate oil. The Mead company in this bid went $2.09 lower a lineal foot of property frontage and $5 on block treated with coal tar oil than the previous. low price. Its figure for block treated with distillate oil represents a cut of $1.91 a lineal foot of property frontage and $3.13 a lineal foot of half intersections. Resolutions were adopted for permanj ent improvement of Washington boulevard between Fifty-First and Fifty-Sixth streets and the first alley south of Lawton street between Olive and Draper streets, and for cement sidewalks on the north side of Croft street between Shelby street and the first alley west.

TORY" APPOINTED INDIA SECRETARY Selection Regarded Sop From Premier to ‘Die Ilards.’ LONDON, March 18.—Viscount Pod was today appointed Secretary of State for India succeeding Edwin S. Montagu. Viscount Peel recently succeeded Sir Eric G,>ddes in tho coalition government as minister of transportation. The appointment of Viscount Peel was regarded in some quarters as a sop from Premier I.loyd George to the Tory “dta hards” In the coalition party who havt. been fighting the premier with great bitterness. Mr. Montagu was a Liberal, but his successor is a Unionist, or Tory. Holds \ r ear and Day Murder Time Limit The Indiana Supreme Court has held, in a decision in an appeal from the Clark County Circuit Court, where a person killed died more than one year and a day after tho inflicting of injuries, was not murdered. The Supreme Court’s decision was based on common law and will serve as a precedent in thi* State for future cases of the kind. William Dally and Claude P. Gaunt were charged with th* murder of a guard, Charles Orem, at the Indiana Reformatory at Jeffersonville, Nov. IS, 1917. Orem lived until Jan. 21, 1919, fourteen months inter. The trial court quashed the indictments charging murder and tho Supreme Court affirmed the lower court’s decision. HOWS YOUR TEMPER?

WOMANCHOKED BY BURGLAR FOR SILENCE Victim, Unable to Speak, Is Knocked Down for Not Talking. In an effort to force her to tell where her money was hidden, a burglar, who entered the room of Miss May Lucas, 109 West St.. Clair street, early today, struck Miss Luoas, knocking her down and, when he received no answer, he struck her a second time and choked her. Miss Lucas afterward explained she was too frightened to answer the burglar or to call for help. The victim was awakened by the glare of a flashlight in her face and the demands of the burglar for money. The intruder finally left, taking with him a watch and fob valued at $45. Other persons sleeping in adjacent rooms of the apartment were not disturbed and knew nothing of the burglary and assault until t': thug left and Miss Lucas regained her power of speech. The police were called and given a description of the burglar. Lona and Kate Ruddiek, sisters, apartment 3, 510 North Meridian street, were awakened by a burglar in tlieir room. 1 Screams frightened him away. The burglar was thought to be the same one who was discovered in the Y. IV. C. A. rooming house, 725 North Pennsylvania street. The burglar flashed a light in the faces of two young women. He left on being discovered. A purse belonging |to Mary Turok containing $lO was stolen, and small amount of change was taken from the room of Velma Duncan. Burglars obtained silverware and clothing valued at $lO from the home of Katherine Higgs, 1330 La Grande street.
