‘WALKATHON’ MOVES INTO COUNTY COURT ‘Hall of Justice’ Takes on Musical Comedy Air During Battle. (Continued From Page One) up a little when Mrs. Margaret Callahan, 5440 College avenue, indignant under questioning by lames Deery, city attorney, won her point concerning the admittance price which she thought was 25 cents, but is 40 cents, by stating that she was admitted on a pass. ‘ But you said you paid 25 cents." j said Deery. "I said I though the price of ad— i mission was 25 cents," said Mrs. Callahan crossly. "I got a pass.’’ "You win. madam," said Deery as the crowd in the court applauded j and Judge Clarence Weir rapped for ; order. A T. Coleman. Indianapolis business man, testified that he had attended the “wallcathon” a number of times and had seen "no dancing or improper actions on the part of > the contestants, nor anything which | might be construed as immoral." Mr. Deery objected on the ground? j that Mr Coleman had not quali- j fled as an expert on what is immoral." Elbert J. Barker, secretary of the Indiana board of agriculture, which i rented the Manufacturers’ building on the fairgrounds to Seizer with the approval of Lieutenant-Gover-nor Townsend, blushed when he was asked to describe the tactics of the walkers. He testified that he had seen no kissing or improper actions, but under questioning admitted that the couples walked “with their arms j around each other.” Deery insisted that Barker demonstrate just how the hands were placed, but the farmer secretary demurred. "Aw, shucks, you know how they do it, don't you?” said Barker. Subdued laughter echoed through the court as Mr. Weiss called for Marshall Roberts. 18. Vallejo. Cal.. one of the contestants. A tall, darkhaired youth in a faded blue jersey, Roberts shuffled into court through the audience. Moving his feet rhythmically he | stood before the judge and was j sworn in. "Take the witness stand, young > man,” said Judge Weir. “I can't, your honor," Roberts apologized, “I'm in the 'walkathon' and I've got to keep moving my feet.” The judge permitted him to testify standing. The case was adjourned at noon until 3 p. m.

DINOSAUR SKELETONS BURIED IN SANDSTONE Moving of 2.000 Tons Necessary to Get at Huge Bones. P# Science Service NEW YORK. Sept. 26.—Skeletons of two huge dinosaurs have been discovered near ravbull. Mont., by Barnum Brown of the American Museum of Natural History. Brown expects to dig them out. but not this year. To get them out will require a major job in stone-quarrying, for a mass of sandstone 45 x 65 feet in area and 10 feet thick will have to be moved. This figures up to 29.250 cubic feet. Allowing an average weight of 143 pounds per cubic foot for sandstone, the total weight comes to more than two thousand tons, or about .fifteen carloads.

F. C. Bonnet Travels Trail of Languages During 40 Years’ Work. BY HELEN LINDSAY Times Stnff Writer A comedy of languages is behind Fred C. Bonnet, jeweler extraordinary, who has plied his trade in the shops of Germany, Switzerland, France and the United States for more than forty years. A Germany by birth, Bonnet entered the factories in the various countries without knowing the native tongue, but found in his art a means of expressing himself, which was understood by his fellow workmen. Today, he teaches Indianapolis housewives, students and others interested in this method of expression. Bonnet for the last two years has been conducted classes in the rear of his store, 162 North Illinois street, With the assistance of Miss Mabel West, former art instructor in Manual Training high school, he teaches two classes each week. Uses Egyptian Methods

Using methods of treating metals and stones first discovered by the Egyptians, Bonnet and Miss West show these pupils how to make rings, pins and other pieces of jewelry. Bonnet occupies much of his time in the creation of unusual pieces, designed by himself. Exhibiting a ring on which he has reproduced a most life-like dull gold beetle, he admits that he finds much amusement in his own work. "I served my apprenticeship in Germany, more than forty years ago," he explains. "Then it was necessary to work for several years learning the art before there was any pay. Later I went to the border of Switzerland, where only French was spoken. I could speak only German, but I understood what they meant when they showed me the designs for jewelry, and 'was able to do the work. Worked for Japanese “I came to the United States, and worked in jewelry stores here. When I first came to Indianapolis, I worked with Ikko Matsumoto, who has a shop on the Circle. He could speak the Japanese language, but I could not understand it. I could speak German, which he did not know. But we understood our work, and got along in that way together." Twenty-seven years ago, Bonnet opened his own store on Illinois street. He became acquainted with Miss West when she was conducting jewelry classes at Manual Training high school, and h,e was able to furnish her pupils with stones and bits of metal to be used in their work. When she retired from the school, they decided to open classes in Bonnet's store. One of the most promising pupils in the classes is Mrs. George Alig Jr., 3833 Carrollton avenue. Under direction of Bonnet and Miss West, Mrs. Alig has learned to design and execute many beautiful pieces of jewelry, and has made a number of pieces of fine silver tableware. Makes Fraternity Pin “I made my son, who is a graduate of Wabash college, a fraternity pin which probably is the piece of which I am' most proud." Mrs. Alig says. "It was designed with the fraternity insignia, and has given him much pleasure. “Aside from that, I have had much amusement in making a ring for a small nephew. Elden Alig. “Because there are a number of children in the family, his mother

has decided that no one relative should be required to remember them all on birthdays, and at Christmas. She has allotted one to each relative, for such gift remembrances, and Elden is my 'gift child.’ “I made him a small silver ring, with an ‘A’ inscribed on it. He was so proud of it that he insisted on wearing it at all times. He boasted that he was the only one in the family who had a handmade ring. "Recently I was very glad that I hade made it for him. His hand was caught in the door of the automobile, and we believe that the ring

HAULING ECONOMY PROVED BY “The Red Ford Freight er” In 5,000 Mile Run in 8 3 a Days

Load (carried throughout test) 5,080 lbs. (2 1 / 2 tons) Daily Mileage (average) 575 miles Average Speed w . . . 40 m. p. h. Gasoline Mileage (per gallon) 11.54 Oil Changed Each 1,150 Miles (None Added Between Changes)

The remarkable economy of the Ford V-8 Truck has been demonstrated again. The “Red Freighter,” a Ford V-8 standard stake job, proves that the enthusiasm of V-8 owners has been based on actual records—not guesswork.

With its constant 2\'o ton load (in actual service a truck may travel empty half the time) encountering all kinds of weather, and traveling over the same roads your own trucks must use —the “RED FORD FREIGHTER” ran on schedule time at an average speed of 40 miles per hour. However, due to delays caused by interested spectators en route it was necessary at times to travel at 55 miles per hour to make up lost time.

There is economy for you! The kind you ought to have. And remember that the Ford V-8 gives you more than economy. You get increased power for hills and heavier loads quicker pickup and greater speed for traffic and the open road. See these new Ford V-8 Trucks and Commercial Cars. Examine the many refinements in the rugged chassis and bodies which have been built to stand up under the hardest conditions of hauling and delivery service. W’e will gladly loan you the “Ford Red Freighter” for a free trial in your own business.

! saved his finger from serious injury. !It was very painful, and it took I some time to remove the ring from ! his finger, but he stood the pain without tears. “Then he saw his ring, battered and misshapen. That was too much, and he cried bitterly. His mother wanted to try to straighten it, but Elden wouldn’t let her. He has been very hapyy to find that I was able to repair it, and now we call it ‘old finger saver.’ ” Classes are conducted by Bonnet and Miss West each Wednesday and Saturday afternoon.

NEEDY DRAIN ON COUNTY SHOWS SHARPJDECLINE Trustee Credits Improved Employment for Drop in Food Aid. Improved employement conditions were credited today by Miss Hannah Noone, Center township trustee, for sharp decline in the number of families receiving poor relief baskets. From the peak of 12.900 baskets issued weekly in March, the number issued has declined steadily, only 7,014 being reported for last week. Assuming only three members to a family, this would indicate that 15,000 persons have been relieved of the necessity of asking public aid. Miss Noone said. Relief expenditures by the Center trustee for the first twenty-three days this month were $59,261, compared with $67,681 for the same period in August, 300 families have been dropped from relief rolls. With the start of the federal public works program in the next few weeks, it is expected that a large number of the unemployed in the township will receive jobs and be removed from the trustee s list. TAXES WILL BE TOPIC OF RETAILERS’ LEADER Official of State Organization Will Speak Thursday at Severin. G.

In spite of this the “RED FORD FREIGHTER” averaged miles per gallon. Oil was changed every 1,150 miles, but none was added in between, and of the five (5) quarts put in, better than four (4) quarts were drained out at the change 1,150 miles later. The truck was powered by Standard Red Crown Superfuel, Anti-Sludge Isovis “D” Motor Oil, and equiped with Firestone Tires.
