REFUND UPON DOG LICENSE MADE BY CITY Mr. Fixit Learns Owner Can Collect When Animal Dies. Let Mr. Fixit *id you in obtainingneeded improvements to streets, alleys and other public works. He is The Times representative at the city hall. Write him at The Times. Red tape and office routine yields to common sense in at least one department at the city hall, Mr. Fixit discovered today. DEAR MR. FIXIT: I bought a dog license on July 7. My dog was killed July 9. Can I collect a refund from the city for the period the license is unused? H. A. Joseph L. Hogue, city controller, said he sympathized with H. A.’s predicament and would re-sell the license for the unexpired term, if H A. wP bring it to his office. DEAR MR. FIXIT: The tunnel which is situated on Bates St., between Pine and Shelby Sts., is utterly disgraceful. It is nothing more than a nest for hibernating rats and a sink-hole for refuse washed in by the rain. There is not even as much as a lantern in it by night. A DISGUSTED CITIZEN. John F. IValker, superintendent of the street, cleaning department, told Mr. Fixit he would clean the tunnel within a few days. DEAR MR. FIXIT: I am writing to ask if you can get the Merchants’ Heat and Light Company to keep the street lights burning in the evening from Fifty-Fourth St. on College Ave. on out to Broad Ripple. I live between Fifty-Fourth and Fifty-Fifth Sts., and it is as dark as seven black cats out this way. We have had no lights for over six weeks. MRS. R. LOWTHER. The board of works has ordered the Merchants Heat and light Company to survey this situation. New lights will be installed from Fifty-Fourth to Sixty-Third Sts., for old ones found deficient. DEAR MR. FIXIT: Between the east tracks on the Illinoiis St. car line between Thirty-Fourth and Thirty-Fifth Sts. and directly oppostie 3449 N. Illinois St., you will find a hole that will soon be large enough, if let go, to bury a street car. About eight out of ten automobiles strike that hole in the center, and of course the springs on their machine do the rest. I am getting very tired of listening to the jolting of the machines, to say nothing of

PASTOR CLAIMS SCOPES BROKE HIS CONTRACT Dr. Lewis Brown Discusses Evolution From His Pulpit. Declaring that John T. Scopes is guilty of breach of contract and should under the law be adjudged guilty, Dr. Lewis Brown, rector of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church Sunday spoke on “God, Evolution and the Bible.” Dr. Brown contended that Scopes knew- when he accepted his contract that he was subject to the provision that he would not teach evolution as a fact. Dr. Brown discussed evolution from the spiritual, theoretical, practical and scientific viewpoints. He contended that one of the serious features of the controaersy is that Scoptes “is guilty of breach of contract.” ’Evolution is only a probability, at most an hypothesis,” Dr. Brown said. "People have gone further thin Darwin. Huxley said that if he had a son he would rather have his .-on get religion without science than science without religion." He contended that Huxley, at the bottom of things, was religious. He said that Darwin was a member of the Episcopal Church and "nexer showed himsef to be an unbeliever.” “Darwin simply had a theory of the origin of man.” Dr. Brown said. He pointed out that we are always battling agrinst breach of contract and called attention to the case of Bishop Brown, who was found guilty recently of breaking his ,vows.

It’s really only the work of an hour or so, however, for the tired spring to he rejuvenated by tempering and re-arching, according to Lilly, and the result more than justifies the moderate cost, both in comfort to the car owner and in the added service the car will give. Only One Branch Tempering and re-arching springs is only one branch of this company's service, however, for many times a spring does not merely become tired —it reaches a stage of utter exhaustion. .snaps in two and frequently Is lost by the roadsid^. Then, it is necessary to replace 'he broken spring with anew one. This may be done in an hour or so, for the Indianapolis Spring Service Company carries in stock springs for all standard makes of cars and will make to order in a short time a spring for any old car.

IDEALS ARE DISCUSSED Pastor Says Falling Short Does Not Mean Failie-e In Life. Falling short of one’s ideals in life does not mean failure, declared the Rev. Charles M. Reed, pastor of the Woodside Methodist Episcopal Church, in a Sunday address. The greatest men have died feeling they have fallen short of the goals they set, he said. ' DRESS NOT IMPORTANT Speaker Says Overalls Are Not Bar to Heavenly Days. "Overalls or gingham aprons can not bar one whose heart has entered into the heavenly exnerience from the possibility of heavenly dajtc," said Edmond Kerlin at the First Evangelical Church, Sunday. Christianity does not take us out of the world but transfigures the commonest tasks with the light of the Spirit, Kerlin declared. SUPERINTENDENT SPEAKS Rev. King Says Christ's Teaching Can Save Civilization. Adjustment of relations between the races of the earth and classes such as capital and labor is found only in the teachings of Christ as taught by the church, the Rev. Harry Andrews King, district superintendent, declared at morning serv ices of the Central Avenue M. E. Church Sunday. Only the church can save modern civilization, which today is menaced by the greed and lust that followed the World War, the Rev. Mr. King said.

sick, 400 Fletcher Trust Bldg., are helping many Indiana banks solve the bandit problem by writing insurance protecting hanks against burglaries and offering a reward for the capture or killing of a bandit or burglar. Since September, 1924, according to the figures of this surety company, there have been twenty-seven hank robberies in Indiana. The same figures show that last year Foster and Messick wrote one-ninth of all the burglary insurance carried by Indiana banks. Far Below Average According to the law of averages, then, they should have suffered oneninth of these losses, hut instead only one bank insured by them has been robbed. That bank, they were afterward informed, failed to take advantage of the protection offered it by the surety company—namely, a notice posted in a prominent place saying that a reward of JI.OOO would be paid to any bank employe or officer of a bank insured in their company who captured, dead or alive, one or more persons attempting to rob or burglarize the hank. Not One Instance "There has not been a single instance of a bank being robbed where one of these signs was displayed," an official of the company said. ■ “When a bandit starts out to rob a hank and sees one displaying such a sign, he knows that he will meet [with some real resistance.” j "He takes a big chance of being | killed, and he’s not going to take S such a chance when there are hanks ! that are safer to rob. The bandit is ja coward at heart, and he’ll not take la chance when he knows that a | monetary reward will be given to the man who shoots him ” A tennis ball filled with nitrogen I and said to be so constructed that j it will never lose any of the gas has i been put on the market by a British firm.
