WARNS YOUTH
Without hope, buoyancy, brilliancy or faith many of the rising generation face the rest of their life and the whole of eternity, ruins of dissipation, said the Rev. Allan B. Philputt, pastor of the Central Christian Church, in his sermon on “Purifying Fires." It is easy to build life with the flimsy things, but hay, wood and stubble won’t stand the purifying flres of God’s tests for things worth while,” said the Rev. Philputt.
GOD AND SCIENCE
“We find God speaking to a world of men as a maker of new things and promising new things,” declared the Rev. John A. Henderson, pastor of the First United Presbyterian Church, in a sermon Sunday. “Men seek after new things and God is constantly preparing for new things. Science is (instantly seeking after the creation of new things, but all these things brought forth are but the products of God, for God’s hand is evident in all the laws of the universe.”

Man was bom in God’s image and was made to live on a high plane of existence, said the Rev. G. L. Farrow, pastor of the Victory Memorial Methodist Protestant Church, in his sermon yesterday on “Stirring Up the AVest.”

SWORD OF FAITH
“Every Christian must have a sword of faith in order to fight through life successfully,” said Rev. C. M. Reed, pa3tor of the AVoodside M. E. Church, yesterday morning. “The Christian’s Sword” was the text. “There are too many people who stand on the sidelines and want to watch the fight go on,” the pastor commented.
GOD UNCHANGEABLE
“Nothing can remove God from His throne of the universe or take Him from His rule over the peoples,” declared Maj. John Oneal of the A r olunteers of America in his sermon last night at the Volunteers of America chapel, 139 A\ r . Market St. “He a* the same as He was yesterday and will be the same forever.”
CHRISTIAN DEFINED
“God has taken men of ordinary affairs of life to make of them true Christians,” said the Rev. Walter L. Ewing, pastor of the Irvington M. E. Church in a sermon last night on “The True Christian.” “The truest Christian garbs himself with the garments of Christian service and stands out as the most dependable man of his time.”
ILLUSTRATED SERMON
Printed cards, chains, a tin box and other objects were used by the Rev. J B. Mehaffey, pastor of the Fletcher Place M. E. Church, to interest the little folks of the congregation in an illustrated sermon yesterday.
RECORDBUILDING YEAH PREDICTED
Demand for Material Will Tax Rail Facilities, Contractor Says. It is doubtful if the transportation facilities of the country will be sufficient to meet the demands for the great volume of building material that will be wanted for construction work in 1923, is the opinion expressed by Walter AV. AVise, building contractor. Mr. AVise predicted that 1923 will be a record breaker from the construction standpoint. Speaking of the situation, he said: “Many persons believe that the railroads miy be unable to cope with the demands of a great construction season this j'ear, so that for contractors — in spite of a probable great market for building, in spite of the fact that material plants may work to capacity and loggers put in a full and active season—the picture is not altogether roseate, since there may be serious difficulty in obtaining the materials for many of the jobs. The roads are still unable to serve the Nation In an adequate manner; the neck of the bottle can not be opened to an adequate size for years to come. “It seems to be the consensus of opinion in that section that first quarter prices will be higher than ever and that adequate supplies will be hard to obtain during the peak of the coming season. Similar conditions exist, and will exist, in other centers, and similar solutions will be suggested. “Production In most plants or industries is as high as the season will permit, and shipments are sufficient to take care of the current demands. Although the production of cement, brick and lumber is now much lower than during the busiest season during the past year, it is true that normal December records were exceeded. Building has fallen off somewhat, but this hag been a busy month. Many lumber mills have shut down because of the season, but as the demand for lumber is unusually high, there Is a scarcity of some sizes and grades. A few brick plants have cut down on-

AMAZON LEAVES SUITCASE BEHIND
Strange Girl Takes Refuge in Home After Fight. A fighting Amazon will find her suitcase at police haedquarters. Frank Craig,*32l N. Alabama St., called the police Sunday afternoon and told them a 17-year-old girl had a fight with a man In front of his home. She asked Craig If she could remain at his house until the man left the neighborhood. She remained there for some time and then she asked Craig if his daughter, Cecil Craig, 14, could accompany her to her home. They walked to Pennsylvania St., where the strange girl met a man and then told Cecil to return home. The fighting girl had left her suitcase at Craig's home and the police took it to headquarters.

available supplies by restricting operations, and price increases are still the order of the day in certain sections. “Winter failed to slow down steel work to any great extent in this region, and the market is active. Other materials are facing a demand that is unusual, but the valuation of the work under way shows that the pro ducers of the basic materials are not pushed as hard as they were a few months ago. Production is generally high, stock fair and prices firm to strong. Permits show that the spring business will be good. “Residential construction of the multi-family typo is leading the market. Excessive demand has forced prices rather high, and dealers are showing that they expect higher prices by putting in large, stocks of basic materials."
EVENING SERVICE ADDED BY CAFE
Several months ago In response to a constantly Increasing demand for evening service the management of the Russet Cafeteria, 37 S. Meridian St., decided to serve an evening meal. The move was fully Justified, according to Grace Anna Rust, manager, and the number of patrons to avail themselves of the service has grown at an astonishing rote, she said. “AVhen we opened the Russet Cafeteria we believed there was a big demand in the downtown district for a noon lunch service. But we felt that there would be little or no demand for an evening meal. Time proved that wo were right In our first surmise, but entirely wrong In the second,” Miss Rust said. “Frequently our patrons would come to us and ask why we did not keep open In the early part of the evening. Asa result on Sept. 1 we initiated the plan of serving an eve nlng meal from 5 to 7:30 o'clock In the evening. Since then our patronage has grown at a surprising rate. “Few persons realize Just how much care must be devoted to the management of a properly conducted cafeteria. AVhen we established our plane we did It with the definite object of giving Indianapolis business men and women and downtown shoppers an

opportunity to enjoy a meal under the most pleasant surroundings, and at the same time avoid the extremely high prices that so frequently accompany high-grade service. “The success of the Russet Cafeteria proves that we were right in every way. Our customers have come to know that when they eat with us they are assured that quality will never vary and taiit the highest degree of cleanliness is a rule that wo never ;illow to be violated. The environment contributes to the enjoyment of the food. Soft lights, quiet, decorative effects and the courteous demeanor of our personnel all go the make the place congenial and conducive to satisfaction. "Even the ordering of food becomes a pleasure under these circumstances. We change our menus daily and tints avoid the dull monotony of repetition bo distasteful to the palate and so destructive to the appetite. We do our own baking and can vouch for the quality of every ingredient entering Into our products. Our foodstuffs are purchased with exactly the same care that is exercised by a housewife in doing the family marketing. “AVe feel that we have given Indianapolis an eating place of which it can be proud and of the kind for which so many persons have been seeking for a long time.”

but it is sure to advance in the near future, he believes. In speaking of the building materials situation, he said: "A study of the prices of four basic construction materials shows that a considerable degree of stability has been established, and that whatever the next four or five year period ha3 in store, the outlook for the first part of next year at least is a firm market. “Take the four materials, lumber, cement, common brick and structural steel. Tuking the average price of each of these materials during the first ten months of 1921 as the base price, or 100 per cent, we find that in the case of brick the percentage price for the first quarter of 1922 is 86.3. for the second quarter 85.7, for the third quarter 89.9, and for the fourth quarter 89.5 per cent. Therefore. in the case of this material, there is an average for this year at j least 10 per cent below that of last | year in spite of the fact that building ictivity this year has been much I greater than that of last year, that | labor in brickyards is harder to get i and hold this year than last year, and that coal costs have been very high. During the first quarter of 1921, the percentage price of brick was 113: Its j high point since the war was during j the third quarter of 1920 when It was 130 per cent of Its best price. In 1913. : common brick was 41 per cent of its average price during the first ten months of 1921. "Brick is the only material which stands lower during the last quarter of this year than it was during the last quarter of last year. Cement Is 92.8 per cent, whereas it closed last year at 90 per cent. Steel closes this year j at 97.9 per cent, whereas It closed last | year at 76. Lumber closes at 127.5 whereas at the close of hist year it ! was only 103. "As In the case of labor’s wages so in the case of material prices. It looks as If there may be an upward tendency during the early part of next year. The general trend is upward, and a strong demand will never turn It downward.”
