SHANK DIRECTS REORGANIZATION OF STREET WORK New Division of Duties for Walker and Hyland Wiil Be Result, Reorganization of the department of unimproved streets and highways under Martin J. Highland, superintendent, and the department of street cleaning under John F. Walker, was ordered today by Mayor Shank, effective Jan. 1, 1925. The proposed plan would make Hyland superintendent of sewers, and waterways and give Walker charge of all streets jjnd alleys. The mayor instructed Benjamin Perk, city budget expert, and Taylor Groninger, corporation counsel, "to work out 4he changes along proper legal channels. With the consolidation. Shank suggested that inspectors be given a salary increase of? 400 a year which 'would enable them to own and operate their own automobiles At present Hyland has charge of unimproved streets and sc-ewers while his inspectors duplicate duty done by inspectors of improved streets. Under the new plan, the city could be redistricted and one set of inspectors would have charge of all streets and alleys while others would supervise sewers. The mayor said he believed twenty city owned automobiles could be eliminated by the change Perk and Groninger said they would have plans submitted within a month < so the saving could be effected in next year's budget.

LETTER FROM JOHN' ALDEN PRESCOTT TO SYDNEY CARTON Dear Syd—l am sending you a letter I received yesterday from Paula Perier, and I am asking you, “Can you beat it?” I know that right here you have skipped everything else and are asking, “Who is the girl you were seen with at the restaurant?” I am not going to tell you who she was yet, Syd; I am too full of'''the peculiar psychology of Paula’s letter. I thought I knew women. P thought I knew every one of their littie idiosyncrasies. I thought I knew not only what they were thinking, but the way they -would work out any given proposition, but I confess I am stumped with this. That letter is a hummer. I know you will agree with me there. Think of it, Syd, a former sweetheart writes to the husband of the woman for whom she was thrown down and pleads that he will not. In the future, give his wife any excuse for being unhappy! Great Scotland, if that is not a situation for a French farce or an 'American tragedy, whichever way you look at it, then I am a boob. I can really see nothing harmful when a woman is away \from her husband, if he takes his secretary out for a dinner.’ % Yes, you’ve guessed it. It was Sally Atherton, and I’ll bet anything you want to wager that if she wasn’t such a striking looking woman no one would have thought anything about it. I’ll also be willing to take a few side bets that Paula Perier would have ho scruples about my going to dinner with a girl, if she were the girl. I do not believe, either, that it will make Leslie unhappy when she finds that I have been dining many times with her good friend, Sally Atherton, while she was away. Os course I shall tell her. I know if I do not do this Sally will. She is the frankest and most open-minded woman I have ever known. Leslie is not a jealous woman. On the contrary, she has proved her great love for me as well as her great understanding of men by forgiving me little Jack and taking him into her heart. Why, do you know, Sydney, that I believe that Leslie loves that boy better than she does me. I am not at all afraid of what Leslie will think or say about this matter. but I was much interested in what Paula said and what she probably thinks. That is the reason I am sending her letter to you. It is a modern viewpoint, isn’t it? My mother had the idea that if a woman had once “fallen.” as she used to call it, she could never be trusted again. Nowadays we find the theory turned around. Paula has proved that she can arise above her early indiscretions, but she thinks I am not to be trusted ever again. (Copyright, 1924. NEA Service, Inc.)

TO ROAST BEEF . S soon as your meat comes from the market remove it .-.i from the paper and put it on ice. Wipe with a cheesecloth, kept for the purpose, wrung out of cold water. Never let meat stand in water, cold or otherwise, as the water draws out the juices and much nourishment is lost. A roast should always be put into a hot oven to quickly cook the surface and prevent the escape of ju.ces. At the end of 15 minutes the meat should be seared all over. Then reduce the heat and allow 15 minutes for each pound if wanted “rare” and 20 to 25 if wanted “well done.” A roast of beef can be cooked deliciously in a common, ordinary “spider.” It will require basting every 10 minutes and should not be dredged with flour before putting in the oven. Mix one teaspoon sa.lt and one-eighth teaspoon pepper for each pound of meat. Rub well into meat before putting in the pan. Have the oven very hot. Put just enough boiling water into pan to cover bottom c'.'. frying pan, add roast rubbed wish salt and pepper

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
If you want something unique in the way of a card case, you can't do better than invest in one of the neat little leather affairs that strap just above the ankle. They are sure to attract quite as much attention as the ankle watch, which always is sure fire. Clothes have been redeemed from the commonplace this season, and if you go al>out clinging to the old type of accessories it is because you really prefer them.

and roast for 15 minutes. Then baste with drippings in the pan every TO minutes. If the roast is very lean, put a very thin slice of fat pork over the top. To make the gravy remove the roast from the pan and cook on top of the stove until the drippings stop spitting and sputtering. Pour off ail the fat byt two or three tablespoons. Add two or three tablespoons of flour and stir until perfectly blended and brown. Then slowly add two or three cups of hot water, stirring constantly, and let bubble for three minutes jtfter all the water is in. Bring your gravy to the boiling fioint each time you add water. Season with salt and pepper and serve in a. gravy boat. This mah so. thin gravy. If you prefer to use a self-nasting roaster, rub the meat with salt and peppeit, put in the roaster and dredge with flour and put in a hot oven. Basting is not necessary but occasional turning and watching will produce an even roasting. The gravy is made in just the same fashion as described, the flour in the roaster adding richness and color. No water should be necessary when a self-basting roaster is used, but if you are afraid the flour may burn in the bottom o fthe pan a few tablespoons can be added when the roast is put into the oven. No matter what cut of roast you have chosen these general directions should be followed. The fenderest meat conies from the part of the beef in which the muscles are least used. This meat is finer grained and takes less time for cooking. These cuts make the finest roasts. The first three ribs make a delicious roast and are usually less expensive than a sirloin or porterhouse roast. Rib roasts are used "rolled’ or “standing.” "Rolled” simply means that the bone is remolded and the meat skewered and tied into a firm roll. You will find a rolled roast much easier to carve than a standing roast, but the stand' ng roast makes the best gravy. So there you are. Calories, per pound, for a standing rib roast are as follows. Total calories, 1.448; protein, 325; fat, 1,123; iron, .0155 gram. Gravy, per cup: Total calories, 136: protein, 8; fat, 107; carbohydrate, 21; iron, .0001 gram. (Copyright, 1924, NEA. Service)

Martha Lee Says Love Flower Thrives in ‘Soil’ of Memory
Love is a hardy flower. Withr all the elements against it, it thrives. In fact, the more elements against it, the more it thrives.
It is irate parents who cause elopements. The elopers are proud to defy authority and prove ( their love by risking anger for it. It is a romance that was cut short that lingers on in memory. A love that time might prove to be an infatuation is idealized if it is cut off before it is given a chance to prove whether it is a beautiful blossom or merely a weed. This kind of love resists efforts to forget it. It thrusts its heid up at every opportunity. Only time, work v and service to others may take away the sting and mellow it into a dear memory. Persistent Memory Dear Martha Lee: I am 17 and verymuch in love with a boy one year my senior. We have loved each other for five years He is a very good young man, but my parents disapprove of him because of an act which was not his fault at all and they lenow- it. Because of their disapproval. I pave him little encouragement. A few years ago. when he moved away, he didn't write to me I see him for a short time abdut once a year. v I -e worked hard, hoping it woum all come out right. I got along very nicely until the last few months when, seeing how happy my friends are. even my work atinot keep me from feeling lonesome. I do not go with any one and have no desire to. Please do not tell me to forget him. for I have tried that and failed. JACK'S GIRL. Os course you don't want to forget such a dear j friend. But you do want to forget about love, for a few years. Dear little girl, you cannot know whether you really loved him, except as a friend, because neither of you is old enough yet to know whether your love is real or not. Had your parents approved of this boy and had you continued to see' hitn frequently you probably would feel differently about him. You have built up what you think is love around a memory. You cannot forget a thing by concentrating on forgetting. Instead, let him be a friend who is away, hut don’t crowd out other friends. You do not give yourself n chance to become interested in other people. You live in your thoughts. That will make you selfish. How About It, Boys? Dear Miss 1 >v- I am a girl 17 old I have many boy '-tends What puzzles me is th’g Does a boy like a girl better when she lets him kiss her. or not? L-t> hear from the sheiks drug store cowboys and real” boys of Indianapolis JT ST A GIRL. The “sheiks” probably will answer, “Yes.” The "real" boys will answer that, although most hoys tak"e kisses when they can get them, and even return for more-less credit to the hoys—they do not have an yreal admiration for a girl who must resort to giving a bAy her lips to hold his attention.

STOCKING REVOLT IS SENSATION OF FASHIONFEATURE Milady's Hcse Match Nothing in Rest of Summer Costume, Hu Times Special CHICAGO, June 16. —The revolt of the stocking is the sensational feature of the fashions of this season, according to a hosiery buyer for one of the large department stores. “Stockings this year match nothing,” she told a customer who was completing her summer wardrobe before leaving the city for the summer. “Buy whatever color strikes your fancy—anything from powder blue to sunset, from blush to cruiser gray. Forget all about your gowns and shoes. They have nothing to say about it. Buy fibre silk hose for SI that have been shaped in the weaving and you can afford all you want. The very conservative women wear the nude, gray, and beige shades, but most women give their fancy for color full play. “We have seen this coming slowly for a long time, but not until this season has the stocking declared its absolute independence of the rest of the costume. We by matching the stockings to the shoes when we first wore tan and white shoes in addition to the usual black ones which of course were matched. During the height of the vogue for bright-colored shoes, stockings matched the shoes. Most of the time during the last few years they have alternated in allegiance between the gown and the shoes. But this year, as I told you, they're a regular i revolution. They're a law unto ] themselves. It won’t be strange if ! a lot of feet go astray.”
