BY HOLLY BERRY' ■pedal Correspondent of The Times in Eskimoland. ’ NORTH POLEVILLE, Eskimoland, Nov. 23.—(8y Radio)—Toys! Millions of them, piled to the ceiling of the largest room I ever saw, surrounded us as Santa Claus made good his promise today to show us the mqst famous factory in the world—his toy factory. v i Ever since the long trip of several months over frozen lands to reach Santa and after arriving at his fairy-like home, we have lived In a constant state of amazement. But'this sight was more wonderful than any we yet had seen. Can’t Risk Using Brushes Hundreds of little gnome-like helpers busied themselves in every nook and corner of the factory. One little one was painting the stripes on coaster wagons near us, not with a paint brush as you would suppose, but with a soft little brush on the end of his long pointed cap. It looked awkward, but Santa said

that they were so busy this time of the year that they couldn’t risk using brushes. “You see he might lay the brush down and not be able to find it for several minutes and during that time some little boy would be disappointed by not having a wagon for Christmas. We have to work every minute—if we stopped for just a moment it might rob some ‘child of his Christmas present,” said Santa Claus. , Our amazement increased as Santa led us through long aisles of high-stacked toys. Trains, doll buggies, skates, games, .wagons, dolls, whistles, drums, boxing gloves, toy automobiles—everything. that boys or girls could want in the way of playthings. Wc didn’t know it then, but a heavy brass door at the end of one of the aisles led into a room still more wonderful. It aroused our curiosity and I asked Santa where it led. See Testing Room “Into the testing room,” he said, “Would you like to go in?” - Os course we wquld; we wanted to see every spot in this wonderful old man’s hc>us& so we could tell all the boys and girls in Indianapolis, through The Times, just everything ,about everything. So, Santa took us through the door, and such a sight no one from the outside world ever had seen before. We thought the toy factory wa3 wonderful, but here all the toys we had seen stacked In stiff piles were being tested before being gotten ready for Santa to take on Tils

Christmas eve ride around* the world. V ’*• ,v * ) Wonderful Sight Revealed . Can you imagine what a sigh|t it was? Two little men were trying out a pair of boxing gloves. A tiny engineer sat in the cab of a little locomotive and ran it furiously around on its track. One was riding a frisky-looking rocking horse, another wheeling a dool while still another was putting beautiful, sleepy-eyed dolls to sleep. How they did it, fhough, was more than I could understand, with a hundred other lusty little gnomes at the other end of the room blowing as hard as they could upon horns ahd Whistled,' 1 beating on drums, and playing all sorts, ot musical instruments until the whole room shook with a terriffle but jolly l noise.

HEAVY TAX ON FIGHT TICKETS drawsOattle Promoters Deluge Green With Protests Against High Levy. Bu United Press WASHINGTON, Nov. 23. —The proposed 25 per cent tax on highpriced tickets to big boxing matches was a storm center in the House Ways and Means Committee today as the committee put finishing touches on a bill calling for a $235,820,000 tax reduction. ) Even in war days no 25 per cent tax ever was imposed as a levy on a single business, and fight promoters deluged Chairman Green of the committee with telegrams of protest. Some blamed Secretary of the Treasury Mellon for suggesting that anyone who could pay S4O for a prize fight tickets, as in the Dempsey- Tunney fight in Chicago, also could stand to pay a 10 per cent tax thereon. The committee thought the idea so good that it voted, 13 to 8, to retain the 10 per cent tax on low-priced fight admissions and put a 25 per cent levy on tickets costing $5 or more. Movie Theaters Helped > This means that Tex Rickard must charge $45.45 in future to get the same profit from a ticket which the promoter sold for S4O in Chicago. , The committee helped the movies by deciding to exempt $1 amusement tickets from the 10 per cent tax. The old exemption was 75 cents. The present 3 per cent automobile tax was cut in half, a step expected to have a wide affect upon the automobile market. Not only would new cars be reduced 4 J 4 per cent In price, but all automobiles now in use would suffer a commensurate loss in value. The corporations tax was cut $166,000,000. This, is expected to enable corporations to distribute that much more In profits to stockholders Qext years. Nominally the proposed reduction of 2 per cent would make possible that much of an increase in dividends. Soine Changes by House As the bill stands in its final committee form. the $235,820,000 reduction would include the following cuts: Corporations,,sl66,ooo,ooo; admissions, $8,000,000; automobiles, $33,000,000; capital stock transfers, $8,000,000: produce exchanges, $2,820,000: club dues, $5,000,000. 0 It is figured the additional boxing tax will increase revenue half a million dollars !l year. The bill will be reported to the house Dec. 5, where some changes are expected to be made.

Penny Out of Stomach; Tiny Boy’s Life Saved

Eeller <?f Anderson, Ind.. today owes his life to the invention cf an instrument by' Gustave Killian}, a German, In 1895. Dr. Lafayette Page, with the aid of the instrument, removed a penny from the child's stomach, Thursday. Tills was the sixtyeighth operation of its kind performed by Dr. Page. Among these were the removal of six open safety pins, a plate of false teeth' and a small bone from persons’ stomachs. The instrument is known as the escphagus-sccpe. consisting of a long glass tube with an electric bulb at the end. The patient is laid out straight, the tube forced down his throat and the foreign substance located.

Even Extreme Hospital Tests Show How. Soon It Stops a Head Cold, Cough, Chest Cold An inexpensive home method—so pleasant children love it—offers the quickest and surest way to get rid of a stuffy head cold, bad cough or deep seated chest cold, according to tests of doctors at the hospital clinic. And druggists say that the same quick relief that came to C. H. Reddy and little Elsie Durant has been experienced by hundreds of Indianapolis people who have used it in their own homes. Caught Cold in Draft—Soon Relieved by Doctor’s AdVicc
Mr. Reddy contracted a stuffy cold while seated near an open window in a street car. In spite of the , cold tablets and salves he used, th<* cold grew worse —spreading from

With the first swallow he felt its comforting, healing, warmth from nose passages deep down into his chest. Relief began instantly and In a day or so the cold was completely gone.

Mrs. W. H. Durant whose adopted daughter, Elsie, was kept from school by a severe cough and cold that brought fear of pneumonia. Doctors ordered the child to bed,
with double strength doses of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral every half hour until relief came —then once every hour until her little bronchial tubes, lungs and nose passages were free from cold and normal again. The following day she looked like a different child. In another

STATE WEALTH GAINSJN 1927 Schortemeier Reports Investment Increases. Hocsiers have much for which to be thankful for, records of Secretary of State Frederick E. Schortemeier show. “Statistics of the corporation department prove that more money has been invested in new corporations in Indiana and in old corporation enlargements than in any previous year,” said Schortemeier. “The State securities bureau, likewise, shows that the field of stocks bonds and other securities has been more extensive this year. People ap-. parently have more money for investment. “Statistics of the automobile bureau show licenses purchased so far this year for 48,000 more automobiles than In any previous year. “These statements are based on State-wide statistics and indicate that Indiana people are not going backward in material pursuits, but are more active and prosperous than ever. It is my opinion that all classes participate in our prosperity. We go up or down together.’
