CIRCLE PALACE OF JACK FROST SEENBYBERRY Herald of Santa Claus Off for Snowy Trip to Cover World. This Is another story by Holly Berry, special correspondent of The Times, accompanying The Times Polar expedition led DV Capt. F. E. Krelnschmidt. Holly is visiting Santa Claus in his own home and has secured motion pictures of the kind old man in his own castle which will soon be sent back to Indianapolis by airplane and shown to children here. BY HOLLY BERRY NORTH POLEVILLE, Eskimoland, Nov. 30— (By Radio.)—l promised ID my story sent by radio yesterday to tell you of our visit today to Jack Frost’s palace, but after having seen that beautiful place built of tons and tons of jewel-like ice, I know I will not be able to describe it properly. We started, as on the day before, right after Santa Claus and the members of our expeditionary party, had breakfast. The sun has turned all the snow and ice outside to diamonds when we started out in reindeer sleighs. We took the same path as the day before and within an hour were at the edge of the Polar Sea. Slide Over Ice We drove across it at its widest part. The ice was so clear that we could see all the way to the bottom, which Santa told us was nearly a half mile below tne runners of our sleighs. Hundreds of queer little fish of all colors and many large, ugly monsters of the sea were sleeping soundly entirely surrounded by ice and totally ignorant that such a merry party was passing above them. High in the mountains on the opposite side of the Polar Sea, we came upon Jack Frost’s palace. There is nothing in any picture book half as beautiful as this huge castle of ice, which sparkles in the sun like precious jewels. Palace Sparkles The wall which surrounds the castle grounds is of solid ice, one hundred feet high and a half-block in thickness at the base. The palace itself sparkles so in the sunlight that it is impossible to look upon it without blinking—like looking at the sun. It is several times higher than Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument in Indianapolis —just how high, I cannot say, because the tops of its towers—one at each corner—are lost in the clouds. Ther whole exterior is covered with beautiful icicles, which form vines. Inside, the rooms are'large with extremely high ceilings. The only disappointing thing was that there was no fire in the place. Jack Frost doesn’t believe in heat, you know, and there was none of the charming fire places that made. Santa’s castle so homelike and cozy. Find More Names We did not stay long on account of the cold and any way Jack Frost was anxious to start on the annual trip he makes ahead .of Santa in STOP BAD BREATH People afflicted with bad breath find quick relief through Dr. Edwards"'Ollve Tablets. The pleasant, sugar-coated tablets are taken for bad breath by all who know them. Dr.' Edwards’ Olive Tablets act gently but firmly on the bowels and liver, stimulating them ’ to natural action, clearing the blood and gently purifying the entire system. They do that which dangerous calomel does without any of the bad after effects. Olive Tablets bring no griping, pain r any disagreeable effects. Dr. F. M. Edwards discovered the formula after 20 years of practice among patients afflicted with bowel and liver complaint, with the attendant bad breath. Olive Tablets are purely a vegetable compound mixed with olive oil; you will know them by their olive color. Take nightly for a week and note the effect. 15c, 30c, 60c.

Eskimo Children Light Santa’s Way

This flashlight picture, the first ever taken in an Eskimo igloo, was rushed to The Times by telephoto from Holly Berry, Times correspondent accompanying the Times-Kleinschmidt expedition to find the home of Santa Claus. Here the Eskimo children are shown making "hope candles.’’ They are made of moss that grows under the snow, and are burned on Christmas Eoe to light Santa’s road as he drives by for his round-the-world trip.

order to make the world beautiful with ice for Santa’s coming. After looking the place over thoroughly we started back and Jack accompanied us as far as Santa’s home, where we bid him good-by as he started on his round-the-world trip. After warming myself before the fire in the library I found the names of many Indianapolis children. Here are some of them: Joan Eccles, Catherine Troutman, Wilma Gregory, Katherine French, John Thomas Healey, Dorothy Rather, James Mclary, Lucille Isenhower, Elitta Clark, Charlotte.

LITTLE CHANGE NEEDED IN CITY MANAGER PLAN City Leaders Confer With Author of Original State Statute. Only minor changes in the Indiana city manager statute are needed, according to Dr. A. R. Hatton, Northwestern University political science professor. Dr. Hatton, an expert in political science, drafted the Indiana city manager law which was originally submitted to the Legislature. Some points were omitted by the Legislature when it was passed. The Indianapolis City Manager League legislative committee, which is studying the Indiana statute with a view to recommending changes in the next Legislature, conferred with Dr. Hatton Tuesday night at a dinner at the Chamber of Commerce. Asks Referendum Clause > Dr. Hatton recommended that the Legislature be asked to change only sections of the law which are of vital importance to the city. He recommended that a referendum clause be written into the statute. In some States the manager law urovides for a referendum vote <sn major bond issues and contracts. Hatton said the recall clause is not essential. Winfield Miller, chairman, pointed out the need for harmonizing, the manager law with the present budget statute. It was agreed that the present law is clear as to tlje merit system in governmental departments. Miller insisted that the sanitary and park departments should be maintained as separate units of government to protect the city's borrowing power. The constitution limits each unit of government to an indebtedness of 2 per cgpt of its assessed valuation. Dr. Hatton said he believes the amendment can be written so as to keep the separate corporations alive. State Meeting Set Corporatioh Counsel John W. Holtzman is a member of the legislative committee. Executive Chairman John W. Esterline announced speakers for the State-wide conference on city manager form about Jan. 20. They include: Charles P. Taft, Cincinnati, prosecutor; Leonard D. White, University of Chicago; Miss Marie Wing, Cleveland city commissioner; L. W. Clapp, Witchita, Kan., banker; Claude H. Anderson, city manager executive secretary, and Chairman Charles F. Coffin. The teredo, or ship worm, which does great damage to ships, piers and wharves, has in its head small, hard shells which form a drill powerful enough to bore into the hardest woods.

This announcement was made at the Stutz plant here today. Inability of Charles Weymann of Paris, France, sponsor and one of the drivers of the Hispano, to have his entry ready in time, was given as cause of postponement.
