What About This Thing ‘Makeup’? June 1, 1927. Dearest Ilene: You know of old how coy Indianapolis is about adopting le dernier cri in the matter of men, manners, and morals, but what are we going to do in the matter of make-up? We’ve seen so little of the white-faced, blue-lidded, car-mine-lipped effects except when Miss Schatzie Stout was here from Paris for her brother’s wedding, and since then a few hardy souls have been flirting with the idea. But Monday afternoon at the Tudor Hall Alumnae Bridge party at the Highland Country Club, there was a pretty girl idling about looking like Molyneaux’s latest mannequin. Her face was artfully pale with the scarlet lips of fashion. Ah-hah, thought I, here ,we have%tn original appearance of the latest dicta of the Bois. But alas! The lady is but recently home from France—Miss „Mary Elizabeth Staples. It was a huge party and Mabel Gasaway flourished the first prize which was a compote and two candle-sticks of amethyst glass. Delightful Fashion Tuesday morning in delightful fashion, the wee ones of the town held forth at “Nottingham Fair” at the Orchard School. A colorful pageant they presented in gaie mediaeval attire which they had designed and made themselves. The group of very small folk—the White Bunnies and the Brown Wood Elves —were delectable! They crowned the May Queen, and danced the English Country dances, and held a shooting match all in the very best Nottingham manner. Little Marjorie Jean Mueller with a flute voice that reminded me of “The Trumpeter von Sachinggen” had a leading part, and one of Mrs. Robert Failey’s small sons was Robin Hood. Little Arthur Zinken was a miniature noble clad in a gallant black velvet costume with a plumed hat. Conducting themselves with aplomb and dignity, the children acted with no visible direction of the grown-ups. Proud mothers looked on with approving eye—Mrs. Ward flackleman, Mrs. George Kuhn, Mrs. Moxley and Mrs. Sinclair, Mr. and Mrs. Alex Metzger, and Mr. and Mrs. Clemens Mueller. Much Discussed To a sewing party this afternoon where much was discussed in the way of Long Island projects for the summer and details of the Bare Knees dance at the Woodstock Thursday evening, but little concentrated sewing done; as is so often alas, the way of accumulated femininity and a needle. Sewing, like writing, is a lonely job. Too often, I must confess, I hem selvages and french seam a rolled edge while listening to the latest Amelia conquest with one ear and with the other to

who said what about whom! (I defy you to improve the grammar of that last sentence, Ilene.) The strain is almost more than I can bear! Sunday afternoon Mrs. Louis Levey had a tea for John Kern and his bride. Miss Julia Brink assisted with Helen Fleischer, Julia Fleischer and Sarah Frances Kackley. The guests were torn between the tea table and the garden,.each presenting its own peculiar attractions. In the center of the silver and lace o! the tea table were yellow roses and white snapdragons, but the garden was a lovely mass of the cool spring pastelle shades of columbine, delphinium, roses, iris, and lupine. The sensation of the afternoon was the arrival of Mr. and Mrs. Robert McClure and their two littla.girk. Mr. McClure is the young and s&cessful writer of "Dominant Blood,” and "Some Found Adventure.” Mrs. McClure was Clara Wells, formerly of Indianapolis. Mr. McClure and I chatted at length about the big things young American authors are doing in Paris using their experiences there as copy. He told me that the dramatic presentation pf the University of Chicago this year is called “Plastered in Paris.” “Fix Me Up” Get me straightened out in the business of make-up, Ilene. I suppose if one must look tubercular, one might as well get used to it. We’ve been trying to get the crowd co-ordinated for a steak roast Monday evening, but if this weather keeps up it will turn into a fur frolic with coon coats and galoshes. Certainly isn't my idea of “melting I nights, in June” and all that sort of thing—think I shall have to join you in Spain to get thawed out. Love to you, my dear, and be sure jto give me all the low-down on t clothes, plays, and the Prince of | Wales. Devotedly yours, SUE. Asks Ban on Liquor United States District Attorney ! Albert Ward has asked Fedl eral Judge Robert C. Baltzell to I enjoin Arthur McDermott, propriej tor, and Earl Star, clerk of a poolI room at 311 E. Market St., from I selling liquor there.

ANDREWS RULE OF NO POLITICS LASTS JOO DAYS Dry Chief Finds He’s Unable to Withstand Storm of Party Protests. This is the second of a series, describing Lincoln C. Andrews’ futile two-year fight to enforce the dry law. BY RAY T. TUCKER Brig. Gen. Lincoln C. Andrews’ appointment as fedetal dry chief in the spring of 1925 was not political. For that reason he had a right to expect that his policies would have the backing of the administration on his proposal to run his office without regard for politics. Secretary Mellon himself selected Andrews and was his sponsor. Casting about for a man to put an end to the conditions existing under Roy A. Haynes, Andrews’ predecessor, Mellon heard of Andrews’ 30year army record, his ability as head of the military police in France, and his success in untangling New York City traction lines from a hopeless muddle. It was an Augean task that faced Andrews. Under Haynes, there had been no attempt to build up an effective and far-flung enforcement machine. Under Haynes' lively but futile methods the bootlegging industry was born, grew to manhood, and flourished vigorously. There was neither local nor federal enforcement worthy of the name. Three Main Points Andrews’ program was based on three specific principles: To effect a divorce between prohibition and politics. To place enforcement on a busi-ness-like basis. To enlist local authorities in the work of prosecuting hip-toters, while the government concentrated efforts against large sources of plyAndrews’ first concrete problem was to attack Run Row. The rum fleet of forty ships had been standing off the New York and New Jersey coasts for months figuratively thumbing its nose at Uncle Sam's dry laws. In conference with President Coolidge, he had been instructed tc break up bootlegging among the coast resorts. It was a “scandal” the President told him. 111-equipped in those days for the task, the coast guard steamed out to the fray, discharging a few volleys that came dangerously near pleasure yachts. Senator Edge protested wrathfully. Andrews retorted tartly that the coast guard would do its full duty in carrying out the letter of the law. Mellon Intervenes But it did not last tong. Secretary Mellon intervened and the optspoken General Andrews was forced to issue orders that transformed the coast guard’s attack into a tea party. Meanwhile. Andrews had perfected reorganization, dividing the naI tion in twenty-two districts for enforcement, each district coinciding with the federal judicial district. It j was based on the belief that such j redistricting would permit the judges, district attorneys and other federal officials to give greater aid to the prohibition personnel. •Moreover, these districts had some regard for the water and railroad routes used by the bootlegging gentry. The system of State organizations and State prohibition directors inaugurated by Haynes was abolished. Haynes was made a field worker. “It would keep him out of Washington a lot.” Disillusionment soon came to Andrews. With fury and wailing the politicians flung themselves into the breach. C. Bascom Slemp protested against placing Virginia in the same district with Maryland, because it might deprive Robert A. Fulwiler his political aide, of his job as Virginia dry director. Senator Wellei of Maryland then in office, was advocating one of his political aides Edmund Bunditz, for this new position of administrator. Watson, New, Disagree Watson insisted that Indiana be joined with Michigan, thus keeping his man in office, while Postmaster General Harry New of Indiana favored the original assignment of Indiana to a district including Northern Illinois and Wisconsin. Curtis appeared to ask that the Kansas dry director, George A, Wark, be retained. The wishes of Slemp Weller, Curtis, Watson and most of the others were met. The districts were changed, to suit their convenience and their men retained. During this period General Andrews insisted that the politicians were not interfering, going so far as to write a letter to a newspaper defending them , and himself against criticism. But there came a day when Andrews wag; made to see the light. Taking cognizance of the situation Secretary Mellon said quite frankly that, of course, the suggestions of members of Congress and political leaders must be consulted in appointing dry officials. He announced it at a press conference, so the headlines could blazen it to every job seeker in the land. The Mellon pronouncement came on July 16. The great non-political experiment had lasted 100 days—no more. Tomorrow: Sausage and buckwheats and $50,000 a year men. ROBERT BULL HONORED Butler Graduate Given Medal for Research.

ing alleys and ancient squares—most of which are really triangles—there are a score of case-restau-rants where champagne is never seen or heard, where chansonniers of the old school still hold forth with their topical songs, frequented by artists who actually paint for a living and who bring around at nights their models who are not merely masqueraders. Won’t Lose Much The “Institute” hopes to make American and English visitors acquainted with these places at onetenth the cost of the show places in the rue Fontaine and the rue Pigalle. Tourists will have a chance to enjoy the classic Gallic customs which have little changed since Murger wrote “La Vie de Boheme.” The “Institute” will organize appropriate spectacles in conjunction with the band of artists, singers and musicians who have been making the "Free State of Montmartre” a real place of enjoyment for several years.
