MOSES TO FACE DEFEAT AS NEW SENATE'S HEAD Full Force of Heels of ‘Sons of Wild Jackasses’ to Be Heard. Hi 1 •Scripp.//oioard yetc-tpaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Feb. s—Senator Mosas < Rep., N. H.) will feel the full force of the heels of “the sons of the wild jackasses” when the senate elects the presiding office’- of the next session. With the senate vote split almost evenly, it was learned today that enough westerners will oppose him to prevent his re-election as president pro tern. Moreover, several members of the old guard whom he has offended or slighted plan to absent themselves from the chamber during the contest, thereby reducing the support Moses normally would get. May Decline to Run It Is not expected, however, that Moses will go through to the bitter p nd. The progressives already have informed old guard leaders of their intentions, and the expectation is that Moses will decline to run for re-election. Should he retire of his own accord, the progressives will agree to vote for any other satisfactory candidate the G. O. P. puts up. Though not interested in Moses’ successor so much as in forcing him out, it is known that Senator Wesley •Tones 'Rep., Wash.), author of the Ove-and-ten law. would be agreeable to the Progressives.

Two Votes Spell Defeat On some issues Jones votes with 'he Progressives, and all admire his sincerity. The Progressives feel they 'could receive fair treatment, and no jibes from him cither while on or off the rostrum. Oddly, Jones Is as serious and olemn a man as Moses is sarcastic and scintillating. Two votes will be enough to defeat Moses if he insists on a showdown, anti two who are believed to be ready to cast the adverse ballots George W. Morris ißep., Neb.), and Gerald P. Nye (Rep., N. D.), Moses, in the opinion of the Progresisves, sanctioned the Lucas attack against ’he Nebraskan, and he always has oeen contemptuous of the farm bloc.

Ted Luesse, 933 South Senate avenue, a frequent guest at city prison, because of unemployed demonstrations he has led, no longer is one of the army of nonworkers.

A Word About Money The money yon deposit in a bank ha> to go to work. Idle money, like idle hands, earns nothing. So It is the job of a bank to make money work—and to protect it while it works. The bank makes money work by lending It at interest. When yon pay rent, you are paying for the use of a house. When a bank pays you interest, It pays you for the use of your money, which It in turn lends to the borrower, who pays the bank interest for use of the money borrowed. Money works by being kept in circulation. There is still time to start the year 1931 with a savings account which will give yon a CASH RESERVE when most needed. interest on savings compounded semi-annually.

GOLF LESSONS FREE FOR 40 CITY GIRLS

The rush is on! Indianapolis girls do want to take golf lessons, free of charge, with the hope that some day they may be links champions. Phone calls and letters to The Times today prove this beyond argument. Forty of them will get this chance, under direction of Roy Smith, pro at the Avalon Club, and Dick Nelson, pro at Meridian Hills, at the Nelson-Smith academy, second floor Board of Trade Building. The Times has arranged for lessons, three a week for two weeks, for four groups of ten girls each. Lessons will start at 6 p. m., Monday, Feb. 16, an hour at a time, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. When one group of ten has completed the instruction, another will start, continuing through the week of April 2. There’s no charge and little work to be done to qualify. Just write an essay of not more than 150 words on '‘Why I Would Like to Take Up Golf.’’ Specify briefly what you think would be the advantage of taking up the grand old game. The ten best essays submitted before midnight, Wednesday, Feb. 11, will determine who’ll compose the first class of ten. Just sit down and give the subject a little thought and mail your masterpiece to The Times Golf Contest Editor. The entire forty will be chosen by PLAY SITES ADDED Seven New Centers to Be Operated This Year. Opening and operation of seven new playgrounds this year was announced today by David B.

Business girls and unemployed girls are eligible. And when the course of instruction is completed in Apjril for the whole group, a tournament will be staged on qn outdoor city golf course, to find out which girl has learned the most from the teachings of Smith and Nelson.

The Beauty of ■Hh| Motherhood

THE crown of womanhood is motherhood. But many women face the ordeal of maternity without sufficient preparation. At such times and later, the mother should take a vegetable tonic, sold by druggists and known in almost every home as Doctor Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. Write Dr. Pierce’s Clinic in Buffalo, N. Y.,and send 10c for acquaintance package of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Thousands of women have tested as to its efficacy. We have space here to print only two of the letters received from this vicinity. "I could not do without Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. I have taken it more than once for a few months during expectancy and I cannot find words to express myself when speaking of the benefit I received. I will simply say ‘Favorite Prescription’ was a wonderful benefit and help to me. Asa medicine for expectant mothers I sincerely recommend it.’’—Mrs. Marie Willham, 619 S. 10th St., Terre Haute, Ind. “When bringing up my family I would now and then become rundown in health—guess every mother who has raised a family knows how it is. I am glad to say that when I experienced a breakdown in health Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription never failed to be of the utmost benefit to me.”—Mrs. Harry Poett, Chestnut St., Terre Haute, Ind.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

SOOTH AMERICA FLIGHT UNFOLDS BEAUTY SCENES Constantly Changing View Is Seen by Writer on Air Journey. This Is one of a series of articles ; written by John D. Montgomery, news- \ paper msn, daring an airplane flight I around Central and South America. BY JOHN D. MONTGOMERY St. Elena, Ecuador, is the summer resort for wealthy people living in j Guayaquil. The few buildings on | the barren neck of land are frame ; and look like the resort buildings along the Atlantic coast in the United States. We were only a few miles from the equator, but it was very chilly at night. The Pacific breeze made us use blankets. At daylight the Sikorsky flew over the ocean. As we rose, we could i see great salt beds on the St. Elena peninsula. These beds are formed by the natives carrying up buckets of ocean water and pouring the water over the ground to let it evaporate and leave the salt.

Cameras are forbidden in mast South American countries so we hid ours when we glided down at Guayaquil for custom’s inspection and to refuel. From the air, Guayaquil looks most attractive and typically Spanish, It has a golf course, race track and several parks and plazas. It seemed a progressive city. Leaving there we followed the river out to sea and headed southward. An enormous surf was hammering the coast of Ecuador. I’ve

been told that the surf usualy is fifteen feet high. We make our first landing in Peru after two hours and twenty minutes of flight. A Peruvian civil guard acts as custom s official. The town is Talara, oil center of Peru. It reminds us of Signal Hill, Cal., where oil derricks are as thick as trees. We transfer to a trimotored plane for the Lima trip. The country from Talara to Lima is the most interesting and beautiful that I have ever seen. A complete, new picture is unfolded every minute. Miles of baren country, river valleys, extinct volcanoes, solid rock and sand constantly are revealed. Lima and its seaport. Callao, are enveloped in clouds. We fly over Callao, San Lorenzo Prison island and follow new paved roads to Lima, ten miles inland.

WOMAN BOUTS THREEBANDITS Shoots One, Puts Others to Flight. By United Prets CHICAGO, Feb. s.—Mrs. Ruth Pappas. 37, was sitting in her living room Wednesday night with her husband John and a roomer, Chris ! Kratcikas. They were listening to the radio. Three bandits entered. One of them, carrying two revolvers, held up Pappas and Kratcikas, paying slight attention to Mrs. Pappas. His companions started searching the house. Mrs. Pappas edged her way slowly ; toward a shelf. Upon reaching it, she seized a pistol which had been hidden from sight, turned and opened fire. The bandit fell. She rushed into a bedroom, where a bandit was ransacking a bureau drawer. The robber, unarmed, yelled, jumped under a bed and crawled out the opposite side, yelled again, dived through a window and was seen no more. During the excitement, the third bandit picked up his wounded comFALSE TEETH KLING Holds Them Firmly Deniists agree the one sure way to make false teeth comfortable Is to keep them firm.
