CONGESTION OF SCHOOLS GETS DEFINITE BLOW Excavation Started on Two New Structures —More Are Planned. Relief for the congested condition in Indianapolis grade And high schools is in sight. The stone blocking attainment of this end, which has been, up to this time, gently pushed and shoved, was given a sure rolling impetus on Tuesday. Ground was broken and excavation started on the Washington and Jefferson High Schools, the first new high schools Indianapolis has had for several years. Additions Made Several additions have been made to high schools in the city. Technical has shown a continuous growth with the annexation of new buildings and athletic fields to meet the demand. Manual also has had a new addition in the last three years, while Shortridge has been unassisted. Although the grade school capacity and conditions have been better than ordinary in the western section of Indianapolis, there has been a decided demand for high school accommodation, both in that district and in the colored section.

the completion of the n<?w high schools about next fall, this demand will be relieved. The Washington School Is at W. Washington St. and Belmont Ave., and the new colored high school, the Jefferson, Is at Eleventh and N. West Sts. Plan for Grades No longer will grade school pupils be compelled to have classrooms in the basements of building or In poorly heated portables. During the winter months School 78, Reisner St. and Sherman Dr., will be erected and plans will be approved for six new grade schools. These schools are: Nos. 37, 9, 33, 73, 72, and 14. / School board officials believe these buildings will be sufficient for at least three years. They intend to keep ahead of the need by building anew grade school every one or two years if necessary. If the school board decides on a suitable site for the new Shortridge soon, construction may he started in the early spring. TEXT DECLARED LEGAL Attorney General Gives Ruling On Constitution Work. "Indiana, Its History and Its Constitution,” by George S. Cottman, published by Bobbs-Merrill and Company will remain in grade schools as a text for the teaching of the State Constitution under provision of the last Legislature. A ruling of Attorney General Arthur Gilliom today declared the text legal if the history of the State was taught incidental to the teaching of the Constitution.

REVOLUTIONARY TYPE MACHINE IS DESCRIBED Invention Would Do Away With Metal Type, Originators Claim. • V Bu X’nited Prefix * CHICAGO, Oct. 21.—A revolutionary printing invention, cofhbining the properties of the typewriter and the camera, was described today to delegates at the United Typothetae convention here. > . The machine, which it is claimed is adaptable to wireless telegraphy, would make it possible for an author In Hong-Kong, China, to operate^a keyboard which would set the type of his article in a Boston, U. S. A., printing plant, and simultaneously in a score of cities throughout the world. It is claimed the machine, which was evolved by two Londoners after four years of secret experimentation, would do away with the need of type metal. The machine operates like a typewriter and photographs figures, letters, and other characters rapidly, projecting these from a master film positive to a sensitized film base which when developed corresponds to the composed metal or type line of the modern type-setting machine. The film is contained in a single spool two inches in diameter and three inches wide, It is declared by the inventors to be the equivalent of 2,700 fonts, or complete sets, of type. v The master film’s projection of the photographic equivalent of type may be condensed or widened, lengthened or shortened, almost simultaneously,, providing every variation of size and style required for the printed column.

TIIE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

INTERIOR CAN BE BRIGHTENED

Use of Unusual Decorations and Inviting Ornaments Will Help Make the Home More Inviting in Winter — Colors Help Greatly. By Molly Elliott As long as possible we have avoided closing the doors and lingeriingly have left the garden, arbor and shady veranda to contemplate the long winter evenings indoors that somehow must be made gay to overcome our regret. But we are going to bring indoors the summer gaiety of the playful outdoors in every possible manner this fall and with fashion’s sanction indulged unchecked in riotous “jazzing up” of the drab indoors. With this hanging up of the flag of glee throughout the house come thp necessity of discretion to prevent ar bizarre effect instead of just a jolly merriment that is brought about by the frolicsime use of Interesting things from room to room. Such things as a funny little black cat for a door stop, a wii4-haired lady painted on a sofa pillow comes to mind, or It may take the form of an Inviting little potted plant leaded in glass at the front entrance or, best of all, a quaint old wrought-iron lamp to wink its merriment over the door. Being careful to use as a background for our interiors soft, neutral shades that at once are brightened and serve to soften the riotous colors used elsewhere, the walls may carry the greatest burden of this delightful plan of "brightening up." The window hangings may be wonders to relieve an unpleasant outlook by keeping the eye’s attention bound to Its gay profusion of butterflies and flowers on dainty scrim and hung with draperies of bright rose or gold. The severest room In the world may become positively spirited with the use of gay chintzes and cretonnes discreetly employed. The rugs, the position of holijs greatest prominence in the ultimate effect, can sing a very song of gaiety if their colors are happily chosen and their designs interesting/ Small oriental, real or imitation, prayer rugs are used in various ways because of their interesting design and their engaging colors. Like a glare on a wrinkled and unlovely face, the lights of a room reveal mercilessly every defect. For that reason much light will not necessarily bring about the effect that many brightly shaded lamps will, And wherever possible the wfnter room must be given advantage of all the sunshine available. Light, washable blinds, or Dutch casement curtains may help to admit more light to an otherwise dingy room. Hang Tapes! ries Then comes the Joy of hanging tapestries, brocades of outdoor scenes and bird arid flower patterns here and there, or throwing a riotously colored shawl over the back of a settee or the top of a piano. Upholstery may bring much to a room with its bright pin-point patterns set off by rich, black bindings. Prints and the highly Imaginative French ’’♦olles” which are coming again into their own, may run In .with their packets of joy. A mirror holding an honorable position will treble the assembled gaiety already assumed, with its sparkling reflections. The effect of crystal prisms hanging from chandelier and lamp does all that the mirror can’t do in its position. Every ray of light laughs back its spray of smaller lights through these playful bits of indoor sunshine. In this manner that is the greatest attention to the gay details of the Indoors house, may happiness follow you, though you have had to shut the doors to summer frivolities. A home Is a good deal like a fresh canvas. Almost anyone can fill either, but it takes a qualified artist to do it satisfactorily and well, and give it a permanent artistic value.

Blue Ribbon house planned and buil t by J. P. Fouike, electric contractor, 944 Dre xel Ave.

Fancy a house with all the electric light plugs and switches necessary! That was the ideal J. P. Fouike, electric contractor, had in mind when he built the charming double-house in the picture above. He has come as near that point of perfection as it seems humanly possible to do. With an electric switch at each entrance of every room and wall plugs at every conceivable position where one could be used, he has introduced a feature which adds small extra expense to the building of the house, but infinite satisfaction to the occupant, especially in this day and age of electrical appliances. Porch Lantern Quaint Even the quaint little poych lantern was designed for special convenience and appropriateness. It is suspended from a rigid arm that projects from the wall of the porch instead of a wrought iron cha,in that would allow it to swing to find fro bumping against the house in the wind. The pretty living room, with its soft gray figured, wall paper and mahogany woodwork with ivory trimmings, Is entered by two long French doors with small panes. Conveniently located at the right of the doors, is the double switch fqr the living room and porch light. On the newel post of the stairway, which, leads off the living room taking up part of the entrance to the dining room, is an engaging bronze figure, holding aloft a softly glowing light, which is attached at a wall plug beneath the stairway. At

SMALL HOUSES READILY BUILT Brightmire Cos. Has Erected Many Portables. Having met a great demand with a convenience that appealed instantly to hundreds of persons; the L. G.

the foot of the stairs is a switch which takes care of the living room arid the upstairs hall. The small dining room has decoratve wall lights on either side of two large windows and artistic polychrome chandelier lights in the center. A switch at the entrance from the living. room controls the center lights and one at the kitchen door takes care of them from that entrance. In the kitchen, over each end of the table of the built-in cabinet under and on either side of the sink, are two higher powered plugs with emeArency lights to warn you against going out of the room with the toaster, grill, electric Iron or fireless cooker lighted. At either door is a switch to control the center light and at the outside door is one to light the enclosed back porch. The kitchen is a delightfully arranged room with clean looking sanitos paper halfway up the walls and light blue paint above the molding. Over the sink, which is placed beneath the windows, is an additional light with white shade and chain to avoid the shadow which inevitably glooms a sink while one stands beside it with the center light lighted. Not only is there a light and switch in each of these rooms hut there are two in the living room, three sets of double plugs in the dining room, and in the kitchen one besides the high power ones over the cabinet table. Upstairs there are two in one wall and one in each of two others in one bedroom and one in opposite walls in the smaller one. Besides the customary switch at the head of the stairs In the hall, to light the hall light, there is one just outside the larger bedroom at the front. In the dainty white bathroom the light fixtures above the basin are of lovely white porcelain and the arrangement with which to light them assumes the appearance of part of the fixture Itself. Throughout the house the casings around the switches are finished to match the woodwork of the rooms. Upstairs they are painted ivory with mahogany keys to match the quaint ivory window frames and doors of ivory with bands of mahogany snd downstairs just the reverse. The keys are radium treated to make them visible at night. Exterior Attractive With equally thoughtful care. Fouike has planned the exterior appearance of his house. With an interesting brick chimney running up the middle of the front through the peaked English roof and the flower boxes of boxed hedge for front porch railing, the soft canary yellow and white trim exterior decoration gives the house an air of distinction rare in designs for small “doubles.” The quaint green shutters and decorative eaves add greatly to the attractiveness of the place.
