Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confìdence toward God. I John 3:21. Mischie* Night HALLO WEEX, when it started far back in thè mists of time, ivas thè night when evil spirits were supposcd to dock out of hiding and •oam thè earth, marauding and destroying. Aster manv centuries we see thè work of thè ■vii spirits inherited and ably handled bv Willie, IVim, Pat and thè rest of thè youtliful “gang.” It illustrates how next to impossible it is to ./et a custom or superstition out of thè human ira in, once it gets there. On thè aneient agricnlt ural calendar, Ilalioween was a sort of New Year’s Day. Harvest ivas over and thè landlord called for bis share of thè crops raised by tenant farmers. It was custom for him to arrive late in thè evening and make mcrry at such pastimes as cider drinking and appiè bobbing. When thè fun was over and thè landlord got, down to business, it was early morning of Nov. 1. Probably this is why thè fìrst of thè month is rcnt-paying day, instead of thè 15th or anv tither date that would he just as logicai. Tinte was, of deviltry and more a night of hospitality, good fellowship,’ roaring fircplaces. good things to eat and drink, and dclicrhtfnl superstitions such as walking down celiar stairs backward, carrying a candle and a mirror in whiclt “ber” future husband’s face might appear. The world ncver has cnough of hospitality and good fellowship. Let’s revive it. this Halloween. and make thè night of witches and goblins jovial as well as prankful. Prosperity’s Monica INDIANAPOLIS citizens are heard to complain frequently as they walk around thè obstructions that mark thè site of new buildings. ‘,This city is always torn up,” is their re-! mark. When a city is torn tip to make wav for new : buildings eomplsfints are out of order. It is a sure sign of prosperity. Harvey’s Off Again COL. GEORGE lIARYEY’s Bible interpreta-' tion to thè effec-t that women have no souls i doubtless has been thè belief for many ages, al- ; though it has not been stated in just so many ; words. The Chinese look upon girl habies with disfavor and they are many times drowned or sold into servitude. Turkish women. under strict ” urkish rule, are never permitted to be seen by eallers and women of thè Indian tribes are compelled to do all thè work with thè exeeption of hunting thè food. Inasmuch as thè Indians referto Ileaven as thè happy hunting ground, it is evident that hunting is not cousidered part of thè work. N - A dose study of thè P.ihle will disclose that thè word “man” is svmbolical of or a svnonvm

WHITES ROB NEGRO 'ìhcodore Starks lift! l'p on Fall (,’reek Bridge. Theodore Starks -*i negro. 2370 Highland Pa., was Crossing thè Fall Creek bridge at Sonate Ave last night when he was halted by two white m°n who robbed him of Sl9. The younger oi thè two men cwfred him wlth a .evolver while thè older man searche i him. Aster obtalning thè money thè :obbers tossed thè nurse onto thè .-ic’ewalk. Botn robbera wore fashionóbiy dressed. T'ney escaped in an ati 'mobile parked near thè scene. SHOT IN LEG Negro Is Ili 1 ’ lìullet in Street Fight. William McKia. y. eolored, 330 Yar- • ell St., was shot in thè right log, it is a.leged. by George Simms, negro. 727 Fairfield Ave., last night.

for mankind. This entirely discredits thè statement of Col. Harvey. In declaring that women are not obligated to observe thè Ten Commandments, Col. Harvey is allowing theni more freedom than they really want and Mrs. Thomas G. Wmter, president of thè National Federation of Woman’s Clubs, savs: “I ani sure we women will act as if we had souls wliether Mr. Harvey believes it or not.” Where Care Counts FOURTEEN million pounds of dynamite and blasting powder wcre exploded last year in rock quarries worked by cement companies. And not a single serious injury resulted to any of thè men wko handled thè explosives. Reason: Reeognizing their danger, they were cautious. Everv day on thè streets of Indianapolis and in workshops and factories, several persons are hurt. The danger they are subjected to doesn’t matter mueh. What counts is carefulness. Ninetenths of all accidents are due to some one’s carelessncss, not li azza rd. As Visitors See Us NOTHING incites more favorable comment from visitors to a city than sightly and well-lcept vacant lots, and likewise nothing indttces more unfavoralile eriticism than unkempt lots and signhoards in conspicuous places. A ride through X. Meridian St. as far as Thir-ty-Eighth St. would convince any visitor that some rcal estate owners would rather capitali/, •• on vacant lots for a small amount of m uiey, while holding thcnj for thè cxpecterì increate in value, than to do bis or her city and neighbors thè kindness to prevent advertising comparies fpom ereeting unsightly signs in many of thè prominent residence districts. Maple Read, which is one of thè ehief connecting links of thè Indianapolis boulevard svstem and one of thè most fre'quented north side erosstown drives, is literally hedged in by signs of everv kind and description. They advertise everything from bottled milk for habies to highprice limousines and attract no end of unfavorable eriticism. Is there no way of appealing to thè pride of realty owners? Preserving Youth VI 7 E HA VE heard thè idea advanced in In- ▼ ▼ dianapolis by a person of a more or less idealistic turn of niind. that ehildren sliould not be started in sehool until they are 10 or 12 years old. The theory is that so large a perccntage of ehildren do not live to maturity, they sliould be allowed to stav homo, plav happily and he enjoved by their parents, particularly hy their mothers. It’s too had we can not all ho ridi in youth when we can en.iov lise and let work come in thè dull davs aster youth takes flight. Seems things work backward in this lise.
