WOMEN ACTIVE IN REBUILDING PARTY STRENGTH Democratic Headquarters Is Scene of Busy Planning for Campaign. BT CONSTANCE DREXEU Jane 6.—ls the Demo-Bft-ats don’t “come back'’ at least in some measure at the nest election, It won t be the fault of the Democratic women charged with women's activities at natlonai headquarters of the Democratic party. ; Inquiry there today developed the fact they are very, very busy. Sirs. Emily Newell Blair, whose title Is resident head- ; quarters natioual committeewonian, left this morning for a three weeks' speak- | itg tour of the north western States. j According to Mrs. Biair ltanister, sis- I ter of Senator Carter Glass, who will \ take charge during Mr Blair's absence, | her mission on this and other trips is to j present to the women the more impor- j tant political topics now under discus- j sion, in order to interest them in party j organization and to urge the necessity of. a more thorough understanding on the j part of the women of the policies and j principles of tie Democratic party. j Mrs. Blair emphasizes everywhere the j Importance of organization and does not champion the cause of auv particular candidate Just as In the Republican party, the districts and States themselves are expected to select their own candidates at the primaries. At this juncture, the work of both na- , tlonai party organizations is only to ; stimulate a: 1 encourage in preparation for the grand struggle between the He- j publican and Democratic nominees for j Congress at the poll.- next November. j The Democratic women who have, as a matter of fact only recently begun to li f t their heads and take courage after the defeat in the last election, seem to ; making startling headway. They artist forming anew national ways and means committee to finance their ac- j tivitles. but details of organization are not yet matured. However, what may prove their most ■ effective piece of work Is the recent or- j ganizatlon of a scries of speakers training schools, which Mrs. Blair completed between her return from the front in Missouri and her departure for other pivotal < States this morning. Mrs. Halsey M Wilson of New York a i vice president of the National Women i Suffrage Association and active in the last j Democratic national campaign, is direc- ! tor of these schools and started the first one in Augusta, Maine, on June J. From a prospectus of the schools obtained from Democratic women at national Democratic party headquarters today, an excellent picture of what Its sponsors are thinking is to be obtained. It says in part: "Do yon believe domestic issues and in- j tcrnntional problems pressing for constructive handling, have found satisfactory solution in ihe present administration?” "Do yon believe the hope lies with the Democratic party whose principles and policies hold the only safe and humane! settlement of problems before the Nation? : “Do yut: want to take part in the n- ' coming congressional campaign by going before your voters and answering with understanding and conviction the foregoing questions? ‘ if so, you are ready to push the proj-' ect of a speakers training school for your ! State. , "At the present moment the most con- j structlve service which the women of the j Democratic party map render the Nation : : cr effecting a live organization Is to conn thoroughly informed on public questions; so to know party policies, j I arty issues, party principles; to assent- i tie •'•- .rtte facts concerning the present ! administration; and then with adequate! techr.i al tracing in speaking, to tak as ; continuous a part as possible In the fail j catn : -a 1 -as. j “'1 he -pea'ters training school is offered • to prepare yon for Intelligent and effec- ! five participation in the campaign. It is j one consideration to be convinced that • you should take part in the election of your congressman bat a far more vital one to prepare yourself to do so by putting Into clear, acceptable form the ’reason for the faith that is within yon.' ” AH this goes to prove the women of both parties are determined to acquaint themselves with r-al facts of the case so campaign methods of the past may no longer succeed in pulling the wool over voters ryes.

* Check* the Babies at City Nursery and Visit Our First Park Theater

By WALTER D. HICKMAN. Check your baby at the first municipal nursery In the history of tho city and then wander over to the city's own theater in Brookside Park. The leby will have a fine time playing or taking a few winks In one of the parlors of the park custodian's house at Brookside while the proud mother and father will have a chance to enjoy In comfort a pleasing performance. And if the patron of this Municipal Theater has no children to “check" at the nursery, he will not be bothered by children In the audience us the park board has made arrangements to take cure of the little tuts who are brought to the park in the arms of their mothers or in go-carts. The park commissioners today made arrangements to have n competent nurse or two iu charge at nights when the Indianapolis Municipal Players aro giving a performance at Brookside Pnrk. There were some babies in the opening audience last night and it was decided to have a nursery opened in the home of the park custodian. In this way some unnecessary noise will be eliminated. The firs city owned park theater came into existence lust night at Brookside Park when the Indianapolis Municipal Players made their Initial appearance. It was a regular "first night," with Its curtain talks and applause. Fathers and mothers, with tbelr sons and daughters, young men with '.heir girl friends, maidens with their chums and proud mothers with their tables lu arms attended the opening last night. There was no admission fee, as these entertainments are "free"—thut Is the city through Its regular channels of taxation pays the bills. The theater is composed of two parts, the stage proper, with Its dressing rooms Is a permanent structure, but the auditorium proper Is under canvas. The seating capacity Is about one thousand, and there wasn’t a vacant seat last night and several hundred people stood aiu-ind the sides of the tent. BOOKWALTER MAKES A CERTAIN TALK. G. v'arieton Guy. assistant recreational director, and in charge of the company, plans to present at least a ten-weeks' season of stock. Ho pda ns to present plays which will appeal to the average citizen. The opening bill is Booth Tarkington's “The Man From Home," which William Hodge used to so much advantage on the stage some seasons ago. l’erformances will bo given each night during the week with the exception of on Saturday and Sunday nights. At the present time no matinees are planned. It is ncl the plan of the city ,administration to compete in anyway, it is said, with the regular theaters of the city. . Instead of giving pageants and concerts, the park commissioners have decided to try out dramatic performances. “I want to congratulate the mayor in presenting to the this kind of entertainment,” Charles Bookwalter, president of the board of park commissioners, stated after the first act. "The purpose of this entertainment is to give the people something for their money. This entertainment appeals to the adults. The park board has been given a free hand by the mayor. We are going to give you playgrounds for your children and swimming pools f.r your boys. The time will come when a mother can with safety permit her ohil dreu to go for a plunge and not lie afraid that a wagon will bring her boy home. “Swimming pools and playgrounds bring a return on your money, a return in better citizenship. We wunt to give you something for your money. If this theater is a success and I see no reason why It will not lie, we plan to establish them In the various parks in the city and change the performances nightly by alternating the companies,' he said. As soon as Mr. Bookwalter mentioned swimming pools, the audience gave him a mighty ovation. If last night's large and appreciative and well mannered audience Is any guide-, then the Municipal Theater is a success already. It appears to the writer. This is an experiment. If tlie taxpayers want it and will patronize it, then the city owned theater 1s a . established Institution in the community life of the city. Time will tell. Tho question can not be answered on a single
