SCIENTISTS OFF FOR SEARCH ON ICEBERG TRAIL Coast Guard Work Saves Vessels From Doom in Northern Waters. BY LYLE C. WILSON, United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, July 12.—Lieut. Commander E. H. Smith of the United States Coast Guard sailed today from Boston to survey the foggy waters between Greeland and Lafirado. With h*s aides, he will endeavor to learn the story of the iceberg from the time it plunges into the sea from a Greeland glacier until it disappears into the warm waters of the Gulf stream. The cruise of Smith aboard the 125-foot motorship Marion will be a practical tribute to the memory of 1,571 persons who died April 15, 1912, when the White Star liner Titanic struck an iceberg and sank off the Grand Bank of Newfoundland. Nations Join for Safety Fourteen maritime nations thereafter undertook to prevent a repetition by patrolling the berg dotted waters southeast of Newfoundland. Costs of this patrol are shared among the nations. The actual work is performed by the United States Coast Guard. No lives have been lost due to collision with ice in the patrolled area since the Coast Guard began its vigil fourteen years ago. Tourists and business men and women from all parts of the world have enjoyed the security provided each spring by the Coast Guard, probably without realizing that two small cutters in the North were protecting them from the fate cf the Titanic’s passengers. Protect Ocean Ships The two cutters go North each March from Boston and remain on duty until the danger passes, usually in July. Daily wireless reports reach all skippers within 400 miles of the ice field. Smith and the crew of the Marion will endeavor to discover where bergs go after they have beer, sighted in the North and drift over the horizon on their journey southward. Other puzzles which Smith will seek to solve include: Does a branch of the Gulf Stream actually dive to the bottom and Anally emerge far north in Baffin Bay? Seek Answers to Puzzles Is the Labrador current a continuous overAow from the Arctic Ocean? Does the East Greeland Current stretch all the way across Labrador? Why is the west coast of Greeland so much warmer climatically than Baffin Land, in the same latitude? Two officers and twenty men comprise the Marion’s crew. ‘CASEY’ JONES-FIREMAN At Least, That’s Ambition of Namesake of Well-Known Engineer. “Casey” Jones wants to be a fireman. Francis J.

SOTHERN PROVES A v POINT IN QUESTION Stuart Walker Will Present the Latest Comedy That George M. Cohan Has Given the American Stage at Keith’s All Next Week. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN THIS department has often maintained that the "road” for legitimate attractions is not near so dead as certain producers in New York maintain. My point has again been proven by the. way towns and cities all over this country are booking E. H. Sothern, the actor who is an institution on the stage, for lectures this fall and winter. Sothern is known as a legitimate actor and a power on the stage. He has been faithful to' the road as well as to Broadway.

People who bought Sothern on tour in Terre Haute know that Sothern would be just as good an actor on Main St. as on Broadway. Sothern has kept faith with his entire public all his life. And now in the winter of his years he is getting ready to go on the lecture-recital platform. And the “road’ ’is willing to hire him, even at a high price. Read this communication of fact that I have received from his agent: “That the country is intensely interested in the theater, despite repeted reports that the ‘road’ is dead to the spoken drama, is evidenced by the extraordinarily great demand that has been made for dates by small and large cities for the appearance of E. H. Sothern, the noted actor, on the recital platform. “Following the announcement made by Ogle, Tinnin, Brown, Inc., that E. H. Sothern would make a tour of the United States and Canada, giving recitals of scenes from Shakesperean and other plays in his repertoire and addresses on various phases of the stage, already over twenty weeks have been booked for the actor. “An interesting phase of these bookings is that they include not only the large cities, but many small towns of a population from 5,000 to 10,000 inhabitants. As the fee that has been necessary to charge for Sothern is by no means a small one, the interest that has been aroused in Sothern’s first appearance on the platforrp is the more remarkable.” # # # WALKER TO OFFER NEW COHAN COMEDY George Alison who plays “McCracken,” the Scotch dealer in Pekinese dogs in “The Baby Cyclone*” the production of the Stuart Walker Company all next week, comes of Scotch ancestors and was born in Edinburgh, although he spent most of his early life in England. “My grandfather was John Wilson,” he said, “who was well known some years ago as the “Scottish vocalist.” He gave entertainments of Scottish song and story for years, both in Great Britain and America.” “I attended school for a time in Edinburgh,” he continued, “and as a youngster really spoke with a marked Scotch accent. I had to try to lose the accent when I went into England, hut I never forgot how the Scotch talked. While at school in Edinburgh all that the boys were given for breakfast was oatmeal porridge—all that we could eat of it, to be sure—but only oatmeal. So this week I am eating oatmeal every morning in order to keep my dialect in working order,” he laughed. In addition to being capable of an extraordinary Scotch dialect, as his character of “McCracken” calls for, Alison has. also had considerable experience raising Pekinese dogs. He and Mrs. Alison have owned several of them. Their first dog was given to them by Helen Hayes. Grant Mitchell and Nan Sunderland played the leading roles in the play in New York.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

CROP FAILURE FELT Woollen Says Wheat Loss Affects Business. “Business during the next four months seems unlikely to be affected in any important way by the presidential campaign,” Evans Woollen, Fletcher Savings and Trust Company president, declared in a business review published today as part of the statement of conditions of the bank as of June 30. “The all but complete loss of the wheat crop in Indiana will have effects that it will be felt throughout the remainder of the year,” the review also declared. Although "business is not, can not be, buoyantly optimistic,” it can not be depressed in the presence of booming activity in construction and automobiles,” Woollen stated. “We are in a period marked (1) by endeavor of an overexpanded industrial plant both to reduce production costs and to enlarge consumptive demand; and (2) by the shifting of business from minor to major units. The shift inevitably means much distress to those in the minor units,” he said. OREGON TOWN BURNING $250,000 Blaze Sweeps Business Section, Many Homes. Bu United Press GLENDALE, Ore., July 12.—Fire which swept over this entire city throughout the night was believed under control today. Five business blocks and several residences were destroyed.

HIGH OFFICIALS PUSH DRIVE FOH HOOVER VOLES U. S. Administration Falls Solidly Into Line to Put Nominee Across. BY RAY TUCKER WASHINGTON July 12.—Though President Coolidge is expected to take only a limited part in the presidential campaign, the Administration already has swung into action behind Herbert Hoover, G. O. P. nominee. Whether by desljn or accident, various high officials recently have indicated that every resource at the disposal of the party in power will be called into play to win votes for the man heralded as likely to carry on the Coolidge policies. Nobody complains an unfair advantage has been taken, for the “ins” always have made the most of their strategic position to resist onslaughts of the “outs.” Treasury Goes in Air For the first time in history, the Treasury Department recently went on the air to tell the American people of the Coolidge Administration’s financial record. Announcing the recall of the third Liberty loan bonds, Undersecretary Ogden. L. Mills did not fail to note that the public debt had been reduced by $8,000,000,000 since 1919. Many believe the recent order of Dr, J. M. Doran, prohibition commissioner, in which he banned “rough stuff” in prohibition enforcement, will tend to soften the force of A1 Smith’s blows. Secretary Kellogg’s obvious desire to clean the foreign affairs slate is also in the nature of campaign strategy. The Republicans will be able to ward off many a Democratic blow if the lid stays down on such international pandora boxes as Mexico, Nicaragua and China. Mills Lauds Coolidge In the current number of Foreign Affairs, Under Secretary Mills lauds the Coolidge administration’s achievements in the international field. Franklin D. Roosevelt, who nominated Smith at Houston, subjects them to a Democratic critic’s scrutiny. In MilPs opinion, Coolidge has enhanced America’s prestige by his handling of foreign problems. “I do not believe the American people are willing to trade the presidency for an immaginary glass of beer,” said Mills.

whippet is more than just a A dog, he’s a ra’cing thoroughbred. Throughout the country the dog races in recent years have been a popular form of amusement for those who crave a thrill and are inclined to lay a bet. The incentive for the dogs to break records, as well as bankrolls, is an electric rabbit that glides around the track in a set groove, while the dogs chase it, but always in vain. The origin of the whippet seems to be more or less a mystery. It is generally accepted that the dog was

MRS. CORDLE’S DAUGHTER LIKE A DIFFERENT GIRL Since Taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound

■' '

DAUGHTER OF MRS. G. H. COROLE 833 Hazel St., Macon, Georgia Macon, Ga.—“l am taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and feel much relieved and I am giving it to my daughter, too. At twelve years of age she was so pale that even her lips had no color. She

evolved in Northumberland, England, some 100 years ago. Regardless from what stock the whippet came, he is a beautiful specimen of the canine race. He’s an aristocrat in appearance, a fine house dog, affectionate and faithful, boasting a real pedigree. A whippet is often called a “snap” dog. The whippet is a greyhound in miniature. It is certain this hound was the ancestor on one side, with a terrier with a rough coat on the other, side. What makes the whippet so popular as a sporting proposition, is the fact that he invariably gives his best, game to the finish.

couldn’t hold out to do any work to amount to anything. I gave her the Vegetable Compound and now at 13 years of age she is like a different girl. We are willing for you to use these facts for a testimonial as we cannot praise the Vegetable Compound too much. We will continue to take it and tell of its wonderful value.”—Mbs. G. H. Cobdle, 833 Hazel Street, Macon, Georgia. Will Answer Letters “I am a young mother, eighteen years of age. From early girlhood I suffered terribly because of a rundown condition. My mother advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetablo Compound to see if it would help me, as she was worried. I did, and now I feel fine. After suffering for five years like I did and then taking nothing but the Vegetable Compound, you may be sure I am recommending It to others. I am willing for you to use anything I say as a testimonial and I will answer letters from any woman wanting to know about the medicine.”— Mbs.

TOWER PLANNED AS FIREGUARD State to Erect Lookout in Clark County. Plans for a seventy-flve-foot observation tower on the 4,700-acre State forest in Clark County from which a constant watch will be kept on the countryside for fire, was announced today by the State conservation department. In addition to the State forest more than 250,000 acres of -and in Scott, Floyd and Clark Counties will be kept under surveillance from the tower during the dry period, Capt. Charles Sauers, assistant conservation director declared. The present tower on the reserve Is thirty-nine feet high and commands only the State forest. Quite frequently fires start in nearby woods, and if not detected in time sweep into the State timber. The tower will be built with funds received from the United States Forest Service on a cooperative basis and money from this joint fund will be used to print 10,000 fire prevention posters for general distribution. More than 10,000 acres of Indiana woodland were burned last year at a heavy loss, statistics of the conservation department show.

Welfare Worker Highly Indorses tlie New Konjola Member of Christian Workers of America, Inc., Says This Medicine Restored Her Health. Everywhere in Indianapolis and nearby towns, men and women are highly indorsing and recommending this new Konjola medicine, which the Konjola Man is now introduc- | ing at Hook-s drug store, IllinoU | and Washington streets, this city.

MRS. MARY KING —Photo by Northland Studio

Konjola Is helping thousands of people who were never benefited by any medicine or treatment before. Just a few days ago, Mrs. Mary King, 601 ti Division street, this city, made the following statement. Mrs. King is a member of the Christian Workers of America, Inc., a faithful organization which is unselfishly rendering blessed help among hundreds of homes in this city. "I wish to tell my many friends about the wonderful results I have obtained through the use of Kon jola,” said Mrs. King, ‘‘l am enjoying better health today than I have in a long time. “I had neutritis all over my body and there were times when I could hardly move. The pains I suffered were terrible and quite often I thought I would be unable to stand them any longer. I was unable to do anything for relief and was steadily getting worse. I was also bothered considerable with night rising caused by weak kidneys. It was a common occurrence for me to get up many times during the night. This made me weak and rundown and it wasn't long until I felt bad all over. I suffered severe headaches all the time and seldom was free from these pains. I believe this was caused more or less by neuritis. I couldn't eat a thing that I wanted and my appetite was very poor. What I did eat always disagreed with me and after worrying a long time about my condition I finally realized I would have to do something for myself if I ever intended to get well. "A friend of mine had been taking Konjola and she told me about the wonderful results she had obtained through the use of this medicine. So I made up my mind to see what this Konjola would do for me. I started on the treatment and today I am so improved that I am making this indorsement in the hope that I may be able to help other sufferers toward health. My neuritis is gone and my liver and kidneys are wonderfully improved. I am still taking Konjola and believe that in an • other week I will be entirely free of all kidney trouble. I haven’t an ache or pain in my body and I can eat whatever I like without suffering afterward. I had been in a very wsnk condition when I started taking Konjola and I want to sav right now that the result* I received ’ through the use of this medicine are wonderful and words could not begin to express my appreciation for the good I have obtained. I gladly give this testimonial and shall always strongly indorse Konjola to anyone who is in ill-health.” The Konjola Man is at Hook’s drug store, Illinois and Washington streets, Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the public and Introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Konjola is sold .In every Hook, drug store in this section and by all the leading druggists throughout this section—Advertiae-u,-4—.1-., .mi mi . *
