Pierce Home Vacated by City Pioneer Residence, Once Center of Social Activities, Is Closed. BY BEATRICE BURG AN Ilm Womn' Pa** Editor ' I ''HE Pierce home at 1415 North Meridian street will be closed this week. After sixty-nine years of prominence in the social life of Indianapolis the doors will close on empty rooms. The rooms will be

vacant, but in the memories of many they will echo with important events. Mrs. Pierce has been busy the last few months distributing the furnishings by gift or sale Saturday she directed removal of her personal effects in the Denison, where she has been living while her home has been In the process of dis-

mantling. As she sat in her room and looked down on the business of Pennyslvania street, she grasped the handle of a cane, the one of her husband's collection which she kept for herself. She gave a hundred ol these to her daughter. Mrs. Frederic Krull. and another 150 to her son. Douglas Pierce, and some 150 more are in the hands of friends and relatives. Every country her world-traveling husband visited meant another cane. He accumulated them as souvenirs of interesting acquaintances and of out-of-the-way places he explored. One, for instance, was given to Mr. Pierce by Elbert Hubbard, writer and maker of fine books. It was made by a prisoner at Ft. Leavenworth from tom bits of the pages of Hubbard s "Phillistiße," shrewd and kindly philosophy. The pieces were rolled, pressed and shaped into a walking stick by the admiring prisoner. Fascinated by Boats Mrs. Pierce’s cane is of natural colored ebony, a brownish shade, and its handle is of the polished black finish banded with ivory. Mr. Pierce brought it with him from a trip to South America. Mrs. Pierce has kept no record of the places to which she has distributed her husband s valuable collection of boat ana ship prints. He was fascinated by boats, particularly those which sailed the Mississippi and Ohio. He liked the Mississippi because of its shifting disposition. Like Samuel Clemens he liked the pilot’s post. So well did Clements cherish his experiences as a real pilot that he chose one of the soundings, mark twain, as his pen name. As Mrs Pierce tells the story of her home, she recalls that she has seen the rise of all the buildings of Meridian street, except Christ church and her own. "I was here to see my own built, but I was too young to have any recollection of it," she explained. Moved Nearer Downtown William R. Henderson built the huge Victorian home, and his wife objected to living “so far in the country." So he traded the home for one owned by Mrs. Pierce’s fa--4 ther. Almus E. Vinton, nearer to the center of town. Later, Mr. Henderson reproduced the house, directly across the street from the original. The house as the Vinton and Pierce home resounded with the activities of prominent organizations. The stock books of the Propylaeum Club were opened in Mrs. Pierce’s home, and many of the early organization meetings were held in its library. The five members of the first graduating class of Shortridge high school met there in 1872 with Mrs. Pierce’s brother, Merrick Vinton, and organized the alumni association. The Social Science Club, and the Industrial Union, later the Woman's Exchange, had their beginnings in the house. Prominent Are Entertained When the Indiana Vassar graduates met in 1900 with Mrs. Pierce, a graduate, they elected her daughter. Mrs. Krull. as the first president and decided that all presidents must be graduates. The Pierce home has had wellknown visitors entertained in it. Henry van Dyke. John Fiske. Maria Mitchell and Elizabeth Cady Stanton enjoyed its hospitality. The home's destiny is uncertain, but Mrs. Pierce has ideas, if developed. will mean the home's preservation and continuation of cultural activities. RUTH FIRESTONE IS WED TO lOWA MAN The marriage of Miss Ruth Firestone to Dr. John Calvin Drake, son of the Rev. and Mrs. J. E. Drake of Holland. la.. took place Friday night at the Second Presbyterian church, with Dr Jean S. Milner officiating. Attendants were Mrs. William Stock, matron of honor: Edgar A. Drake of Centralia. 111., brother ol the bridegroom, best man; Barbara Ulig. ring bearer, and Dr C. S. Wright and Sam Putman, ushers. Dr Drake is resident surgeon at the James WTiitcomb Riley hospital for children, and Mrs. Drake, assistant superintendent of Robert Long hospital. After a trip to Asheville. N. C.. they will be at home in Indianapolis.

Unusual Miniature Rooms and Their Contents Fascinate Visitors at Fair

, •v •• - •>• ‘ 4 ■ It* ‘ \ X | ___ I

BY MRS. C. O. ROBINSON Times Hobby Editor SINCE the collecting and making of small objects is the hobby of many wealthy Chicago women, the ! Ackermann gallery has displayed | this summer collections owned by : Mrs. James Ward Thorne, Mrs. Ogden Armour, Mrs. Potter Palmer, Mrs. Joseph Cudahy, and many j others for the benefit of the Children's Memorial hospital. The exhibit was arranged by Mrs. Thorne and was planned primarily to interest children. Settings were made by Paul Bartels, using Mrs. Thorne's small animals to depict Peter Rabbit’s home, a jungle waterhole, a real circus, a chicken farm, and many other scenes in miniature. Mrs. Thorne’s exquisitely arranged and designed rooms are the acme of perfection in this hobby. She assembles tiny objects into beautiful interiors which often are replicas of rooms in famous houses. No part of the Century of Progress Exposition has had more publicity than the Streets of Paris, and ! yet Mrs. Thorne’s gem of a collection of miniature rooms, which is tucked away amidst the Hoop-La, has been mentioned but seldom. Although these unusual miniatures are as out of place in that bizarre amusement atmosphere as an exquisite piece of old lace on the dance hall girl in an old-time Alaskan saloon, to many of us they make the Streets of Paris worthy of a visit and give mother an excuse to accompany father if he is Sally Rand conscious. MRS. THORNE says of her hobby, “Many of the tiny pieces of furniture and ornaments were selected from many collections of miniature objects, found in various countries. These, however, formed only a nucleus around which each room was developed and it was necessary to create all manner of diminutive things to complete the furnishings. Throughout, it has been my rule to use real materials wherever possible. “The Spanish and Italian lamps, grills, and screen are iron, the furniture is wood, carved in the finest detail and covered with genuine fabrics; the lighting fixtures of brass and crystal, the rugs are real pieces of Aubusson and Petit Point. “The lighting of each room is either through the windows or the open door to create a realistic atmosphere. The greatest diffciulty in constructing these rooms has been to keep everything in correct scale.’’ How successfully this has been accomplished, the photograph above shows, for it seems to be the picture cf an actual room. It is an exact replica of one of Queen Victoria's parlors, but it is only about twentyfive inches long and twenty inches deep. The statues on the pedestals in front of the windows are two inches high, which measurement gives an accurate idea of the relative size of the other articles. The elaborate ceiling is true to the period. as is the furniture, purchased in England. The chairs are veneered in rosewood and the drawers of the wee desk and lowboy really will open and shut. A copy of the London Times (the edition made for the queen's dollhouse > is in the news stand beside the desk. The petit point on the pillows and fire screen and the cross stitch j on the ‘God Bless Our Home’ mot- ' to are marvels of minute perfection, as are the wax flowers under the glass bells, and the bible and red plush photograph album on the center table. mam OTHER rooms in the exhibit, also in true and exact perfection, are an early American kitchen; a vaulted Spanish hall of the seventeenth century; a Venetian rococo .salon; an early English library, a copy of the wood-paneled room in Levens hall; a French Empire salon; a dining room and bedroom of the Louis XVI period; a Majorcan kitchen, and a modern entrance hall. Only the Majorcan kitchen has an occupant. A lovely housewife, in cap and apron, is seated near ijhe fireplace. Mrs. Thorne needs "’ss Edna B. Johnson of our Cent library staff to add life to tfea

otherwise perfect rooms. Miss Johnson’s entirely original hobby is fashioning from wax amazing tiny figures, perfectly exquisite in form and coloring. Since the figures were planned for exhibition in the children’s room of the library, characters from juvenile stories were used as subjects, as the Three Bears, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Robin Hood and similar well beloved friends of childhood. So many adults admired the enchanting groups, however, that they have been to universities for display and are to go to the meeting of the American Library Association in Chicago on Oct. 16. a t> tt OF those here illustrated, John Silver, w’ho needs no introduction, is dressed in a deep blue costume and his face has as much expression as if he were a life-size model.

Manners and Morals

Even If your problems seem trivial, brine them to Jane Jordan before molehills erow into mountains! Write your letter now! Dear Jane Jordan: This may sound like a silly problem to you, but it is very serious to me. I have two children and am expecting another in a few weeks. My trouble is a dog. I have tried, but a dog is one animal I can not like. We had one before and it w r as a big care. I really tried to like it, although it was hard. It died. I took good care of it -and gave it its medicine when it was sick. A few w’eeks ago my husband started looking around for another dog. One of the neighbors offered him a pup. I asked him if he didn't think it would be a big responsibility right now, but he said no. I haven’t said much and I don’t complain, but I haven’t good health and the children have had quite a few r sick spells this summer. Now I have to take care of a dog, train him and feed him. My husband is good to me and w r e always have gotten along fine, but when we had the other dog we had quite a few quarrels over it, and I’m afraid it will be the same thing over. My folks hate dogs, and I can not pet and make over them, although I wouldn’t see one mistreated. I’d be grateful for your opinion. Is it I w'ho am WTong? E. A. B. Answer—Since you are the one who has to take care of the dog, I think your husband should not have saddled you with an unwel-

corned responsibility when you already have your hands full. There is no one more blind than a dog lover. He never is able to comprehend a person w'ho doesn’t feel toward the animal as he does. He does not understand why any one should be unwilling to sleep, eat and live intimately wdth a win-

some canine personality. It no doubt is shocking to you to encounter someone who is not fond of babies, who feels that they are more of a responsibility than a pleasure. The dog lover is just as shocked to find a person who does not respond to his favorite pet. Now that the pup is on your hands, I do not see what you can do except keep it. You are too kind hearted to discard the poor little thing, and you can not mistreat it. It is just another one of those multitudinous adjustments which have to be made in marriage. After all. a dog-loving husband is easier to put up with than a wifebeater, a drunkard, a slacker, or a husband whose chief interest in life lies in the conquest of other women. Many a brow-beaten wife would be perfectly happy if all she had to adjust to was a pup. In matrimony it is very hard to see the little things little and the big things big. Molehills have a

rot on his shoulder, Miss Johnson says, was her most difficult attempt. Since John himself is only about an inch tali, making such a diminutive bird must have been quite an accomplishment. Alice in Wonderland in the group with Tweedledum and Tweedledee is, in my opinion, Mss Johnson’s masterpiece. Alice’s dress is blue, her apron a tone lighter, and her hair, which looks perfectly natural, is a glinting flaxen. Alice should feel at home near the miniature rooms, since those of us who are fond of her adventures will remember that she often found herself growing smaller and smaller. When Alice stretched herself upon tiptoe and peeped over the edge of the mushroom, and her eyes met those of a large caterpillar sitting on the top wdth his arms folded, she was the appropriate size for Mrs. Thorne’s rooms.

way of growing into mountains. Wrath that is generated by larger issues often expends itself on smaller things. If I were you I’d build the pup a kennel in the yard and keep him as comfortable as possible outside of the house. If you can’t reconcile yourself to the little fellow for your husband's sake, think of the boundless joy he will bring to the children. A pet of some sort is essential in the development of children. *ours are pretty young, but not too young to be taugnt a ieeling of responsibility for a warm living tning, totally dependent upon human beings ior its life. A devoted mother will sacrifice herseli any day for the welfare of her cnilaren. Try to see the little intruder from their viewpoint and don’t hold out for strict justice, there isn’t any—in matrimony. mum Dear Jane Jordan—We are two idolized daughters of two wealtny iamilies. We are the only children of doting parents. We are 16 years years of age and think we are old enough to have dates without a chaperon, buff we never are allowed to go out evenings. We must stay at home, to be watched over by loud parents. Please heip us out of ths difficulty. TWO WEEPING DAUGHTERS. Answer—Sometimes I think that whatever a parent does it is sure to be wrong, if they give their children freedom, it is unwisely used. If they restrict them too much, the children feel suffocated. It’s a wise parent w T ho knows exactly how much freedom a child can stand without going haywire, and who knows when strict guidance becomes an intolerable burden. Since your parents are so loving and well-meaning, I suggest that you arrange a compromise with them whereby you are given small doses of freedom until you are able to prove that you can take care of yourselves. Coax them to take off the cottonwool one layer at a time. Take it from me that they have only your welfare at heart and will have to get used to the idea that their young daughters are growing up. Put yourself in their places. What would you do with an adored daughter?

Collection of Antique Boxes Put On Display; Add Designs Are Shown Chinese Creations Are of Particular Interest for Devotees of Art; French. Russian and Moorish Products Shown. BY HELEN LINDSAY ANSWERING the demand of collectors of antique boxes, an interesting selection has been assembled at H. Lieber & Cos. In the display are boxes*#xpressing the art of various nationalities. One is a Moorish box. with an all-over design inlaid in bone. It has a number of tiny drawers, each with bone facings.

A William and Mary Bible box, of ebony and rosewood. with an inlay design of mother of pearl, is reminiscent of the Gays when the family Bible was the most important record of the English family. It was kept in the box. and locked carefully to keep the treasured records safe. Chinese boxes are of particular interest. One*. is of black laquer, with inlays of abalone shells. The natural color of the shells gives an artistic coloring to the design of the box. An interesting old Chinese lock is a feature of this box. Another Chinese box is made entirely of skin, polished highly, and made in a long, narrow shape. It also is lined wdth skin, and is made with a tray w-hich fits in the top. like an old trunk tray. This type of box was used by the Chinese, as a receptacle for their valuables at night, and used as a pillow'. Teakw'ood has been fashioned into a vanity box,

w’hich dates from the dynasty of Chin Lung, w'ho reigned from 1736 to 1795. This is the box that the Chinese woman sets on the floor, before which she completes an elaborate toilet. It has a lid which props open, at an an&le, and two tiny drawers to hold materials for the Chinese make-up. From the French art of the eighteenth century comes a burled w'alnut liquor box. It has compartments into which are fitted four liquor bottles, and a set of wane glasses. tt tt a * M m Attractive Designs Shown OTHER boxes of interest are small Russian ones, many of them carved elaborately in typical Russian fashion showing geometrical designs and queer shaped birds. Colorful designs decorate the tops of some of these Russian laquered boxes, of Fedoskino w'ear. Brushes used to paint these designs are so delicate that many of them have no more than three hairs in them. One design shows an Interesting picture of four brightly dressed Russian children, riding in the back of a Russian sleigh. Others depict peasant women carrying water buckets. Carved and painted designs are seen on the tops of some of the Russian boxes, and these are sometimes fitted into a nest of boxes, each one having an individual key. a an tt tt b Old French Newspaper Found AMONG the recognized collectors in Indianapolis are Mr. and Mrs. Walter H. Montgomery, 129 Downey avenue, and Mr. and Mrs. William Teel, of 5580 Washington boulevard. Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery's collection includes many of the larger types of boxes, a number of them with interesting histories. One is a wine box, which was bought by them from a dealer who thought that it w'as a church box. It is ebony, inlaid with brass. Another is an old applewood box, also discovered in the shop of an antique dealer, in Vevay, Ind. In the lid of this is a mirror. When burglars broke into the Montgomery' home several years ago. they forced this box open, and In doing so broke the mirror. Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery examined it, in preparation for repairs and discovered an old French newspaper, dating from Napoleon’s time, concealed behind the mirror. Other interesting boxes in the Montgomery home are lap boxes, which are writing desks carried by officers when on field duty. They have compartments for ink and papers, as well as secret drawers. In the collection, too, are two tea caddies, one of Sheraton design, and the other dating from 1800. Mr. and Mrs, Teel have been more interested in the collection of smaller boxes. In their group are a number of rare snuff boxes, money boxes, and many of the very old lap boxes, in interesting designs. tt a b a a b NR A Costumes for the Children TO interest the very young child in the nation’s business, the H. P. Wasson company is presenting NRA costumes for small boys and girls. They are wash dresses and suits, of blue cloth, made in the prevailing styles. , Collars are of white broadcloth, with trimming bands of red and blue stripes, and on one shoulder, or on the sleeve, the emblem of the NRA is shown.

BUSINESS WOMEN'S HEADS ARE GUESTS Miss Elizabeth Lenfestey, state president of the Business and Professional Women's Club, and Miss Martha Babb, corresponding secretary, both of Marion, w'ere guests of the Indianapolis federation Sunday. Accompanying them were Misses Lucy Babb and Nina Rae Swift. A breakfast was given in their honor at the home of Mrs. Claude T. Hoover, 3526 College avenue. Miss Mayme Blade, 4118 North Pennsylvania street, was hostess for a tea in the afternoon. She was assisted by Misses Eva Lewis, Jessie Boyce and Ruth Hoover and Mrs. Gladys Vansant.
