HEY MOTORISTS! HERE’S CHANGE TO JOIN HOPS Grand Auxiliary to Pedestrian Order Is Announced. ' By Ross H. Garrigus A grand auxiliary to the HOPS Is announced today by Scrumptious Skip. It :.s the PRO-HOPS. PRO-HOPS are motorists who are for the HOPS. They give them an even break at crossings. PRO-HOPS don’t shoot their car ahead in high second when the traffic cop toots or when the traffic signal flashes “change.” PRO-HOPS don’t speed. PROHOPS are experts behind their wheel. They know what to do when a crisis comes. With HOPS and PRO-HOPS organized, the ANTI-HOPS will be soon driven from the streets. Then the traffic problem will be licked and licked plenty. All who want to be PRO-HOPS, send in their names to The Indianapolis Times. • • • V. H. E., of 3627 E. Washington had a terrifying experience as a pedestrian: His letter: “Standing on the northwest corner of Washington and Pennsylvania Sts., and wondering how I am going to reach the opposite side over by the dime store I make a venture and bang there’s a taxi on a sharp right

BADLY RUN DOWN, NOW FEELS FINE F. B. Boles, Indianapolis, Ind., Says He Was Discouraged Until He Tried Todd’s Tonic. "My system was in a terribly run down condition. I had no appetite end was losing*'weight and strength rapidly. Although I tried almost everything, nothing did me any good until I tried Todd’s Tonic.

On the next attempt I reach almost to the center of the street and here’s another Washington St., pest, a taxi, coming with a string of traffic that forces me to retreat to the curb. Ready again, I hear the policeman’s short blasts with the whistle and the flying squad, the big chief, pumpers, ladders, wagons, battalion chiefs, assistant chiefs, salvage squads, the water man, the gas man and yes there’s a load of bulls in the old black mariah with a couple of reporters hanging on the rear step. Say, who could get across that street—even if you were a non-stop tourist. Anyway a Ford's on fire and a soda jerker ran out of Hook’s with a seltzer bottle and flz-fiz Its out and the fire department goes back in ten minutes but the dime store’s closed. * • • Charles H. Krause. Sr.. 124 F.. Washington St., tells a true fish story. “A few years ago I was crossing Washington near New Jersey St. to look for the cause of a big crowd which happened to be a big fish displayed by the owner. The driver of an auto, ‘pike-lng’ off the crowd, did not see me and struck me a ‘whale’ of a blow on the legs. The ‘sucker’ had no control of his car. I yelled ‘stop that car,’ and must have looked like a little ’shrimp’ doing so. The driver was rather

for me to come within hailing distance. He too HWk been stuping the Danville signs, which were especially prominent at that corner. Two of the four posts at the corners contained signs, but they pointed in opposite directions. “Lady, do you know where Danville Is?” the young man called out. I looked at the signs. “Is Danville a town?” I asked. “No, I don’t know where It Is and don’t expect to learn from those signs,” I continued. With that the young man had an inspiration. “Well,” he said, “my girl lives down this road about a mile. I just came from there, but guess I will go back and ask her which of the signs to follow,” as as he whirled the car around I Could hear him singing at the top of his voice, “The signs point East, the signs point West, but guess I’ll go the way I love best.” "She Wouldn’t Bite Another definite sign said: "Cave.” Just that one word. The sign was tacked to a fence in plain view and the arrow pointed toward the ground. The weeds were high, but a cave, there by the roadside, sounded interesting, so I poked around trying to find the entrance. All I discovered was more weeds. I had uprooted several square feet of vegetation when I decided to walk to a nearby farmhouse and inquire of a young lady on the porch where the cave was. My face was red and I presume dirty and I did not blame her for laughing when she said: “Oh, good land, It ain’t near here. It’s down by Amo. Ma. you tell her where It is." Ma smilingly offered me an apple from the pail she was carrying into the house and gave me the information that the cave was twenty miles away. I felt foolish but was game enough to go back and take a picture of the

just alighted from his car and walked a few feet along the road when a young man In an enclosed car asked If I had far to go. I told him I hoped to make Crawfordsvllle, but guessed the storm would delay me. Imagine the grand and glorious feeling when he told me he was going several miles beyond Crawfordsville and would I ride. Then it Rained Crawfordsville, forty-five miles away for my first days trip. Not such a bad record when one considers the stops I had made with camera in hand and the miles and miles I had hiked. The rain came down in torrents, the roads were flooded and the thunder did its part well but the little car carried us safely through. My companion for those last few miles said he was a salesman and as we drove along he told me about Crawfordsvllle. “If you are looking for the unique things,” said he, “you will find something In Crawfordsville. A stationery store a few doors from the hotel has a pencil sharpener fastened outside the door where the passers by can use it night or day. Now tell me another town in the State that has that.” “Crawfordsville,” he continued, is a city of contented people. They are so contented they do not do the things usually done in towns of eight or ten thousand. For instance, the hotel does not have telephones in the rooms. But Crawfordsville is literary and while most towns are progressing in a business way Crawfordsville is giving pageants and looking after the minds of its young. Nearly everyone in Crawfordsville writes something. ••Why, in Crawfordsvllle,” continued my informer, “the women are so busy with the literary side of life the men have to help bring up the children and do the housework —but it Is all right. “Crawfordsville has produced some noted people who have been a big

Women Twenty Per Cent Crazier Bu United Pretg CHICAGO, July 24.—Science today corroborated man’s suspicion; but science is conservative: “Women are 20 per cent era- t zier than men.” This was the finding of Dr. W. J. Nlckson, director of the psychopathic laboratory, in a survey in which he has it all figured out. His figures are based on the number of men and women patients sent to him for treatment. Among men, laborers, clerks and machinists become Insane most frequently, he declared. Among the women, housemaids, waitresses and factory workers most frequently lose their mental balance.

“Am sorry to leave you, lady, with those wet clothes, but then I guess you will get along all right. You look like the kind that would.” We were at the hotel by now, and while the salesman's message had been meant perhaps for wit, it interested me and I was determined to see Crawfordsville through other eyes than his. I would hike over the town. I would call upon the prominent people, I would learn of Crawfordsville. this Athens of Indiana, not from one person, but from a dozen. My tomorrow’s story will be on Crawfordsville. CIVIC CLUBS TO MEET Cooperation In Activities to Be Urged at Federation Dinner.
