Indianapolis First — YOU remember the hot days of last summer when suffering humanity all over the country pleaded for relief and large cities everywhere were experiencing terrible Ice famines? Indianapolis alone had no shortage. The large supply held by the Polar Ice and Fuel Company could have been sold and shipped at a larger price than that paid here. No babies suffered —no food perished —no hospital went without ice In ndianapolis on account of lack of ice. Foresight and a willingness to gamble ith the weather precludes the possllity of an ice famine in Indianapolis. \Ve now have twenty thousand tons of ice in storage. We know this is more than we will need, but it is there for your protection in case of an emergency. Polar Ice and Fuel Cos. 25 Cash and Carry Stations

IRISH IN DENIAL OF CONNECTION WITH MURDER Statement Issued on Killing of Sir Henry Wilson by Assassins. DUBLIN. June 24.—80th the regular and Irregular branches of the Irish Republican army today disclaimed any connection with the assassination of Field Marshal Sir Henry H. Wilson at London. The following statement was issued at the headquarters of the irregular branch: “The shooting of Sir Henry Wilson was not done at the instance of the Irish Republican army. If It had been, the Irish Republican army would acknowledge the fact. “The death of Sir Henry Wilson is to be deplorqd, not because it occurred apparently at the hands of Irishmen, but because he was a victim of the Imperial policy pursued by the British Government In Ireland. There Is up use trying to saddle the responsibility on Ireland or any group of Irish people. It would be hypocritical to condemn such actions as the shooting of Sir Henry Wilson, while the causes, which provoke such deeds, remain. "Scenes of outrage and carnage in the north are the result of British Instigation, British connivance and British duplicity. In all this Sir Henry Wilson played a part that time will define. And he played It not for Ulster but for his imperial masters.” RAISE CITYFARE ON INTERURBANS Ten-Cent Charge to Local Passengers.

AN Indianapolis woman recently asked her washerwoman how she found time to do her own washing. “I don't, ma'am," replied Sally. "I can’t afford to. I send my washing to the laundry." Purely from the standpoint of cost, what do you think of this home washing business? We’ll leave out the disagreeableness of it! Wbat does the home washing cost? We can't tell you. You can't tell without putting in a cost accounting system. But our guess, based on all the facts we can obtain, is that washing done at home costs two or three times what you think it does. • * * Go down into the cellar tonight and make a price list of all the laundry equipment, not only the big items like the washing machine, but everything, right down to the clothespins. Total it up and figure the interest on your investment. Then estimate depreciation, for everything on your list is wearing out. Find out about how much supplies like soap, starch, and bluing cost per week. Put down an amount to cover gas and electricity. Make an allowance for repairs to machinery and for clothes lost or damaged. If you employ a laundress her wages, meals, and carfare must be counted in. If your wife does her own washing her time and work should be put down as worth something. If you have ever worried lest a servant should injure herself while operating laundry machinery, yoji

She had just finished eating a pile of shucks and the-hat came In Just right as dessert. • * The Excelsior Fiddling Band, says Frlsby Hancock, must have gone to eating onions, as they are growing sentimental, having gone out last night and played right soft and low Just as the moon was rising. • • Yam Sims says there is always something to set a person back. He got a haircut today and now his hat Is too big.

might make a mental note of the risk of a damage suit, even though you couldn’t very well make an allowance to cover such a possibility. All right. Add it up! * * * Very likely your wife is one of the thousands of Indianapolis women who are convinced that the standard modern laundries of this city are doing the high quality of work that good housewives insist upon. These women have discovered that good laundries treat clothes just as gently as they can possibly be treated at home; that they get things beautifully and hygienically clean; that their scientific methods actually prolong the life of garments, and that they are responsible business institutions in case of loss or damage. * * * Very likely your wife would like nothing better than to end the work and worry of wash-day if she didn’t fear that it would cost too much to "send it to the laundry." It doesn’t cost too much. For most people it costs less than the wearisome old-fashioned way. There are different classes of laundry service. Pick the one which fits your case—and save money. • HIS advertisement i9 published to acquaint the women of Indian--I- apolis with the advantages of modern, scientific laundry service as rendered the following standard laundries of this city: BestGrand Launory, Crown Laundry, Excelsior Laundry, Fame Laundry, Gem Laundry, Paul H. Krauss Laundry, M. & H. Co-operative Laundry, Model Laundry, Progress Laundry, Sanitary Laundry, Sterling Laundry, Tiffany Laundry, Triangle Laundry.
