PASTOR DECRIES MILD PENALTIES FOR CRIMINALS Says Christ’s Establishment in State Needed to Combat Graft. i Who is it that is afraid to let Justice fall? When justice does hit the correct individual, why is it that it falls like a featherbed instead of like cold steel?” These were some of the questions propounded by the Rev. L. C. E. Fackler in his Sunday sermon at St. Matthew’s Luthern Church. He was referring to recent political investigations and their outcome, using for his subject “Ending Trouble.” “Each investigation,” he said, pours out before the public the evidence proving how many of our officials have taken advantage of the public and have destroyed public confidence. , “There are indictments and we seem to behold the mighty arm of the law swinging a large hammer, but somehow it seems to stop in mid-air and fails to strike heavily upon the heads of the transgressors. “All this winking at crime and the meting out so frequently the minumum instead of the maximum penalty has increased the troubles of the State. Now we wonder will this trouble ever end? “There are various methods to end these troubles. Not all methods are safe and sane. The people that suggest methods suggest them according to their knowledge and understanding of the Scriptures. “If the disciples in their great distress would have sought the solution of their troubles at the feet

Tiny Pair to Perform at Y. W. C. A. Banquet

These two small entertainers, Leßoy and Edward New, known as “Ford and Glen Jr.,” learned to swim at the Y. W. C. A. and as members of its Health Educational Department, will perform at the department’s annual Rainbow banquet tonight. During the past year, 2.000 persons have enjoyed the facilities at the Y. W. C. A. announced Miss Louise Noble, secretary of the Y. W. C. A. Most of these have been women, who are learning how important radiant health is to charm, and how it may be acquired through supervised exercise. The Rainbow banquet is part of the spring program as is the series of health talks for women being given by physicians on the 13, 20 and 27 of April. At the dinner in the Y. W. C. A. Social Hall, Jean Jackson will sing and there will be some expert doggers from the department. Miss Louise Noble will preside.

IDEAL

No Indianapolis store would consider placing an advertisement in a national medium, such as The Saturday Evening Post, for the purpose of attracting men and women from all over the country to a one or two day’s offering of merchandise: Ridiculous as this might appear, it is not much more so than the placing of such advertising in newspapers that circulate largely outside of Marion County where local merchants can expect to get about 15% to 20% of their business; It is a matter of proper pride with many merchants to attract customers from over as wide an area as possible, yet these merchants know that the cost of developing and servicing these accounts offsets the small margin of net profit that might be made on merchandise sold them: The same effort directed upon Marion County would, in most instances, be far more productive of results. In the great maj'ority o f cases, best results are secured w hen advertising effort is concentrated where Indianapolis’ potential buying power is concentrated (MARION COUNTY). THIS CAN BE DONE BY USING THE TIMES TO CARRY YOUR SELLING MESSAGES.
