SUCCESS FOR CHARITY DRIVE ISJFORECAST Hoke Praises Marmon’s Work on Community Fund Campaign. • t \ Enthusiasm ran high at today’s meeting of Community Fund workers as Fred Hoke, a former president of the fund organization, asserted that Indianapolis has achieved an enviable reputation among American cities because of last year’s successful fund campaign. This reputation would be deserved again this year, he said. “Last year’s success will be duplicated this month beyond the shadow of a doubt,” asserted Hoke. “The money is here; our citizens are imbued with the Community Fund spirit; and our solicitors are on the job night and day. Nothing can stop us from reaching the goal.” “Stuck to Guns” Hoke said high tribute to Walter C. Marmon, general campaign manager, who for the second time is leading the peace-time army of fund workers. “Indianapolis always is seeking civic leadership, first in one field and then in another,” said Hoke. “In Walter C. Marmon, the charitable and philanthropic enterprises of Indianapolis have found a leader of whom every single race, creed and nationality in the city is justly proud. “A year ago Indianapolis’ city government was in chaos. Our mayors were being shifted about like snowflakes in a storm. This chaotic condition had an effect on the Community Fund appeal that was anything but favorable. Yet Walter Marmon stuck to his guns and pulled the fund campaign through to a glorious finish. Better Organized This Year “This year Indianapolis’ city government is normal. Perhaps I should say that it is a little better than normal. Business conditions are somewhat spotty, but are, generally speaking, mighty good. Our army of fund workers is better organized than ever before. “Let me tell you something about our leader that everybody doesn’t know. Mr. Marmon is a director of the National Association of Community Funds and Councils. More than that, he is one of eight men in the United States serving on a national committee to bring about a little closer teamwork between community funds and large business corporations. “We went over the top a year ago for the second time in the fund’s history. Take my word for it, Indianapolis is going over the top again this month. Three hundred and fifteen cities in the United States have Community Funds, and not a single city shall be able to say that Indianapolis failed. On the contrary, Indianapolis will never, fail to live up to its opportunities and its responsibilities. We shall justify that high standard of civic

Indiana Mother Was Guessing When your child is underweight, pale and listless, is bilious, sallow, feverish, fretful, with bad breath, coated tongue and no appetite, nine times out of ten it’s a sure sign her little stomach and bowels are weak. Don’t experiment in cases of this kind. Just follow the example of the millions of mothers who are using California Fig Syrup to regulate their children’s stomach and bowels and give tone and strength to these organs so they continue to act normally, of their own accord. Mothers all over Indiana are eager to tell how this rich, fruity, pleasant-tasting preparation clears up the most stubborn cases of constipation and makes pale, lifeless children rosy-cheeked, bright-eyed and full of energy again. Mrs. A. Huber, 1539% Madison avenue, Indianapolis, says; “From the very first my little girl, Marie, had trouble with her stomach and bowels. It had me guessing until I decided to give her some California Fig Syrup. Soon she started gaining weight and now she’s the picture of health.” See that the Fig Syrup you buy bears the name “California,” so you won’t be imposed on by imitators. —Advertisement.

The youths, Raymond Thompson, 22, of 817 West New York, and William Cobb, 21, of 512 West New York street, were arrested later and admitted entering the case, police said. They were charged with entering a house to commit a felony. Campbell and James Dodson live in the rear of the case, which is owned by Peter Lasse. They heard the burglars force a transom over the front door at 2:30 a. m. The youths fled when Campbell and Dodson advanced. Campbell, in his pajamas, chased them three blocks. On his way back

to the store he met Patrolmen Pies Oliver and Timothy Shanahan and gave them the youth's names. Police had to break down a door to arrest Cobb at his home.
