Why March Is Most Dangerous March is the ntost dangerous ;§jHH month of the season is rn<~>r° 1 many systems ■Py cm can stand. Too fortified, if* the impurities aie driven from the nerve tissues fed with wholesome and strength-giv-ing pure food medicine, there is no danger in the change of seasons. Father John's Medicine is invaluable as a tonic in the spring. It strength ns the system and drives out the poisonous waste matter —builds up the body. It is this power that had made it so successful in treating colds and throat troubles. No weakening stimulants, morphine or other dangerous drugs.

GRONINGER WILL ADVISE BOOST IN STREET CAR FARE Corporation Counsel Says He Will Favor Relief if Opinion Is Asked, Taylor E. Groninger, corporation counsel, will advise immediate relief by increased fare to the Indianapolis Street Railway Company if his opinion is asked ,by the city council, he said today. "An examination shows that the company needs additional revenue,” said Groninger. "Revenue comes from two sources, by borrowing or by increased fare. The company has borrowed to the limit, so the fare must be increased.” Groninger said he would not recommend any specific increase, but would leave that tc the findings of the pub lie service commission. He said additional revenue should go into a special depreciation fund. City councilmen were marking time before forming any official conclusion on the appeal trtt increased fares. Although Councilman Lloyd D. Claycombe, chairman of the committee which investigated the company’s finances, admitted that the matter was discussed in a Republican caucus late Monday afternoon, the appeal of the company for additional revenue was not mentioned in the council meeting Monday night. It has been suggested that an official expression from Mayor Shank. Joseph L. Hoge, city controller, and Groninger might help the council form an opinion. The mayor as wel las Groninger, has indicated sympathy for the company, although they have never recommended any definite fare boost. Zoning Measures Killed Following a stormy public hearing on amendments to tzoning ordi nance which would change territory at Forty-Sixth St. and College Ave. and Twenty-Seventh St. and Cornell Ave. from residential to business, the council killed both measures. I Ordinances introduced: Prohibiting transportation of moj tion p cturo films or other inflammable material on interurbans or motor ve hides within the city limits. Changing district near Noble and Washington - St. from residential to business. Street Names Changed Ordinances passed: Changing Pure St., from Sherman Dr. to Kingbridge St., to Spann Ave.; Black St., from Sherman Dr. to Temperance Ave.. to Hoyt Ave.; Thomas S:., from English Ave. to Black St., to Denny St.; Star St., from English Ave. to Lexington Ave., to Garfield Ave; Kissoll Ave., from Fairchild Ave. to Maple Rd., to Coliseum Ave. An ordnance preventing erection of a public garage within 156 feet of a church, school or public memorial, except in the first fire zone of the downtown district, was stricken from the files on motion of Councilman John E. King. J. E. SHEARER ANNOUNCES County Councilman Seeks Place on Board of Commissioners. John E.
