the Vapdalla Railroad. This Is a community of about 8,000 people, a community made up of entirely skilled working men and their families. A community largely composed of home owners. Hawthorne Is separated from Haughvllle on the north by extended railroad yards and from W. Indianapolis on the south by another system of railroad yards and a number of large factories. One of the things most needed is a West Indianapolis high school to accommodate the thousands or more pupils who live west of the river and who now have to travel long distances to other parts of the city. A splendid central location is available for such a school at the corner of W. Washington St. and Belmont Ave. This would put a high school within walking distance of twothirds of the high school pupils in Haughville, Hawthorne and W. Indianapolis. We are glad to note that the park board Is planning to put a swimming pool in the newiy acquired Hawthorne playground at W. Washington and Mount Sts. This will add to the natural grouping of community interests <in the center of this pleasant neighborhood, where the playground, school, library, park. West Park Social Service House, the prospective high school end the swimming pool will be grouped In a narrow radius. We still need to have the railroads elevated at the Holmes Ave. and at the W. Washington St. crossings. Another thing Is needed, and that is a large city park located along Big and Little Eagle Creeks, where a beautiful wooded tract of probably seventy-five acres could be secured at a reasonable price. This part of the city has no park, and It Is to be hoped that the park board, along with Its other splendid plans, will not neglect to secure this ground before It Is taken up for residence or Industrial purposes.

He noted that the words were patriotic, "And I was Instantly inspired,” he relates “to write a patriotic hymn of my own.
