For if our heart condemn us, God Ì3 greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. I John 3:20. Dollars for Halves THRIFT! It’s a magie qualitv. The Times would like to see every citizeu of Indiana possess it. It is with suoli a thought in mind that, this week and next, we are engaging in a direct-iie-tion campaign to induce thrift in thè people of Indianapolis and vicinity. Take 50 eents to thè Bankers Trust Company any day while thè Times Thrift Campaign is on and you will be given a savings aceount of $1 plus a beautiful bronzo savings bank. This is tlie pian. If there are a dozen merabers of your family, each one of them mav open such an aceount on thè same terms. "While thè Times was obliged to make this arrangement with one bank only, we do not limit our enthusiasm in thè cause of thrift to narrow terms. We hope that all thè banks in thè State will sh.are in thè new spirit of savincr and tlirift that we hope to see engendered. We hope thè banks will all join in thè effort to inculcate this sensible, worth-while practice. For as a people is thriftv so it is prosperous and eontented and happy. Overhead Perils LET’S take a peek into thè future and see what mav become common occurrences in sister eities of Indianapolis one of these days. Governor Farrington of Hawaii, thè other day, went for a flight in an airplane over Honolulu. When sailing Pearl Ilarbor tlie piane caught Are. The pilot and his mechanic made thè Governor elimb out on thè wing and stay tliere, holding on as thè piane sped through thè air, while they battled thè flames. Gliding downward thè flamine piane struck thè water, all swam until a boat picked them up. Aviation is beeoming a menaee in Indianapolis This is a sign of progress. Automobiles did not reaeh their height of usefulness without provmg themselves a problem in thè protection of thè lives of pedestrians and drivers. The regnlation of aviation is a more diflìeult problem. Some of our numerous traffic experts, professionhl and amateur, might turn their attention toward making thè air, and thè earth direetly under an airplane. safe for humanity. Why thè Zeppelin? ONE aster another thè gas bag airship blows up and kills its erew. One aster another our guileless Government buys more of these man-traps, at millions of dollars thè piece, and bang they go again! In thè name of reason, what’s thè use? The lighter-than-air airship—thè dirigible balloon—was perfeeted at Lake Constante under thè patronage of thè present Ex-Ivaiser Wilhelm, through thè indefatigable efforts of Count Zeppelin. The reason for thè great money expenditure on this enterprise was thè desire for a dirigible for war purposes. Tt proved a failure in war. There is now no question that thè airplane is as much superior to thè Zeppelin as a hawk is superior in flying to a fat barnyard turkey. The airplane is also less expensive. It is more subject to control. It is less liable to accident. It is easier to care for when on thè ground. It is less conspicuous; less a target for an enemy. It is swifter. It is stronger. In every way it is | superior to thè dirigible for war, domestic and commerciai purposes. If we were working on dirigibles ourselves, it would not be quite. so bad. If we, ourselves, believed we might make discoveries which would revolutionize aerini navigation. our loss of lise would be less inexcusable. Hardy peoples bave

Q. —How many Indiana are there living in thè United States and how many en reservations? A.—There are 340,917 Indiana in thè United States, exclusive of Alaska. Approximately 300,000 of this number are living on reservations. Q. —When and where was John thè Baptist born A. —The date and place of birth of John thè Baptist are both uncertain. It is believed he was born about six months before thè birth of Christ and there is a probability that thè place was Hebron. Q. —Is thè julce of thè polkberry poisonous? A. —It is to many persons, while it has no ili effects on others.

j ever sacrificed themselves to Science and knowlI edga: But we are doing nothing of thè kind. Like ! some inferior people, we wait until some foreign nation builds an airship, then we buy it at great ! eost and proceed to get ourselves killed or cripplcd for lise fooling with it. We bave gained nothing and have lost a lot of money and many lives. All this seems self-evident and so clear fhat only an extravagant, silly and self-functioning bureaucracy would he guilty of fussing around in : this manner with thè diri gible. Warm Weather and Eggs THE warm fall caused thè hens to lay. This is true all over tlie country. In ; Chicago, thè greatest egg market in thè world, 19.000,000 dozen eggs are held in Storage, and thè peskv hens, stimulated by what they doubtless thought was spring, have made it possible for 300.000 dozen to come in fresh every day, and thè I specuLators seem to face a loss. Now, if thè farmers were organized, as thè banana shippers are, for instance, and some other gentlemen who control thè necessaries of lise, this problem could have been solved by some such easv trick as tlropping 50 per cent of tlie eggs and breaking them, or throwing them into! thè lake. It would work beautifully, if all thè egg producers were in an air-tight. combine so as to divide profits and losses and prorate erirnes. Twenty-five per cent less than tlie people want is alwavs worth more money in thè market than 10 per cent more of any prime necessity. And no harm would result to any one—except to hungry people who want eggs. And what rights has a hungry man anyhow? Or one who is cold or nnked? We may look for thè farmers’ combine next, we suppose. And then egg stock may follow Standard Oil. A Reai Problem TUE Flowcr Mission Society tuberculosis hospital in a corner of thè city . hospital grounds is to go to make room for thè new nurses’ home and administration building. In its place there ought to arise a new building, a non-, oomprehensive prnrram for fightimr thè disease which leads thè Indianapolis death rate. ITere is thè opportunity for thè city board of health. which has been considering greater tuberculosis prevention activit.ies for a long timo, to marshal its fortvs on a scale commensurate with thè problem. The problem belongs to thè city, but in thè program an important place for eontinued eooperation of thè splendid women who have carried on thè work of thè Flowcr Mission Society a score of vears should not be forgotten. The city health department estimates there are 2,925 active cases of tuberculosis in Indianapolis not rcceiving tlie right kind of attention. Some should he in hospitals, some isolated in thè home, some sent to more fortunate climates. It will cost consideratile money, timo and effort to meet thè conditimi properlv, but money spent on public health has rarely been expended umvisely. Remember Them HERE i.syour opportunity to do something for thè disabled soldiers —to help reliete their suffering, to make their lives brighter and, in gen- j eral, to compensate in part for national negligence. The opportunity comes Nov. 4, Forget-Me-Not Day. On this day thè Disabled American Veterans of thè World War make their drive for money to aid their membership. Giving to this cause is more than a duty. It is a priviloge. The public, when approached by Forget-Me- ! Not. solicitors, should respond gcnerouslv. No dollar, no dime, could he better spent. It will bei a permancnt investment in happiness.

I By United Xeus WASHINGTON, Oct. 31—With nine days to go before election, Chairman Cordoli Hull of thè Democratic national commlttee, and John T. Adams of thè Republican national committee, are making last-minute appeals each tinged with a forecast of victory. Chairman Hull goes so far as to predlct that “a Democratic victory is now assured at thè elections, Nov. 7. The only question of doubt remaining is thè extent of thè victory. PractScally every seetion of thè United States will be largely represented anioni; tlie victors.” Stresscs Issucs Chairman Adams, stressìng tho issue of public economy and pointing to thè economies of thè Republican Congress, ventures thè suggestion that “if this program of public economy so well begun is to be eontinued, it is necessary to clect a Republican Congress in order to maintain thè cooperation hetween thè executive and legislativo branches of tlie government.” The Democratic appeal derlares: "If thè stay-at-home Republican vote should he larger than anticipa ted by Democrats there will nevertheless he a very substantlal Democratic victory.
