RECORD CROWD EXPECTED AT HOMEEXHIBIT Great Attention to Be Paid House Heating, Says Director. The thirteenth annual Home Complete exposition, April 6 to 14, is the next big event to be held in the Manufacturers’ building at the Indiana State fairground. The show is opening one day earner this year to accommodate the more than 100,000 home lovers expected to vipw latest innovations in home furnishings and equipment. “Since 98 per cent of the heating plants in Indianapolis are obsolete, and at least 40 per cent of them will be changed within the next few years,” J. Frank Cantwell, director of the exposition said, “we will have displays of the most modern ways of keeping your house .warm. There also will be air conditioning plants which make for healthier and cleaner homes." New Setting Arranged A large block in the rear of the building has been reserved by the Electric League of Indianapolis for one of the most unusual displays ever included in a home show. It will tell the story of electricity, showing how many uses it has in the home and how it makes for more comfortable and pleasant living. The show arrangement has been changed this year. In former years, the model house, the centerpiece, faced the main entrance. This year the pit opening will be blocked. The two main aisles will lead to the rear of the building, which the front of the house will face. Designed by Burns & James, it is to be the typical small house one might find at the edge of a city. It will be planned so as to suggest ideas to any one wanting a larger house, being so elastic that it can be reproduced from $4,500 to $9,500, depending on materials. As in the past, the interior will be completely furnished in keeping with the style of the house. The exterior will be landscaped with particular emphasis on windows, each one being a picture properly planned. Building will be under supervision of a committee composed of Charles E. Wagner, chairman; Carl Spickelmier and Merritt Harrison. Individual Gardens Planned The pit surrounding the house will be filled with gardens and flower displays. The Indianapolis Garden Clubs are planning individual gardens and the Allied Florists will display special varieties and new creations in flowers. Great interest is already being evinced in the show. More than one hundred manufacturers and distributors of materials and equipment for the home have contracted for display space. Sponsors of the show are: The Allied Florists of Indianapolis, Architects Association of Indianapolis, Construction League of Indianapolis, Electric League of Indianapolis, Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce, Indianapolis Home Builders of Indianapolis, Indianapolis Real Estate Board, Material and Lumber Dealers of Indianapolis.

M. E. Tracy Says —

IN spite of all the gadgets, doodads and systems by which we propose to make the world over and all the contempt with which we view those unfortunate generations who had to plough with oxen, or travel by sail, we are still glad to read what an author of the last century had to say about Christ, even though he said it for the benefit of his children and not for publication. To hear some people talk you would think that Dickens was hopelessly out of date, and that there was nothing more to be said concerning the Man of Calvary except in a light or sneering vein. But here is the answer: sls a word —the highest price on record. Curiously enough, few doubt that those who bought the publishing rights will make money. Would such a thing be possible if Dickens were not the writer and Christ the subject? There were giants in those days, and, for all one knows, there may be giants in these days. It takes a long time, however, for the world to recognise a giant. The world always is looking for one and always assuming that it has discovered jone, but a generation or two is usually enough to disclose the error. a st a TRULY great figures are seldom understood until long after they have passed out of the living present, while barkers and ballyhoo artists run away with the show. The most interesting phase of human development is the work that survives, especially the intellectual work, and how long it frequently takes to make an impression ! Tile pyramids still stand, but the corpses they were designed to protect have gone. Greek art still lives, but the religion it was meant to exalt has perished. Who, dwelling in Jerusalem at the time of the crucifixion, could have guessed that a biography of the victim would bring more than $200,000 nineteen centuries hence. Did Dickens suspect such a thing when he wrote it? Measured by the sante yardstick, what of this generation will be remembered or bring high prices 2,000 or even 200 years ahead? No one knows, but it probably will be something we do not regard as very important. Close at hand hills look like mountains. It requires distance to get a true perspective. The bigger the mountains the farther we must go to a get a clear conception of their outline. The same thing is true of big ideas. We do not think the Athenians were justified in killing Socrates, but they had no doubt. To them, he simply was an obstructionist to the existing theories of morality and religion. Milton trying to peddle his “Paradise Lost” was just a down and out politician to those whom he approached and the man who bought it lor S2O was looked upon as very kit*p<or easy.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

BUSINESS NEWS FOR THE WEEK

FEET COMPANY SELLING FORCE TO BEDOUBLED Increase in Business to Place 150 More Men at Work. Sales force of the E. M. Peet Company will be doubled, according to Grant Vansant, Indianapolis branch manager. Increase in business and prospects for 1934 are very gratifying, Mr. Vansant said on his return from a sales convention at Council Bluffs, la. The Peet company manufactures a complete line of supplemental mineral food for live stock. From offices and plants maintained at Indianapolis, Council Bluffs and Oakland. Cal., the company serves the whole of the United States. Mr. Vansant stated that business had been better the past three weeks than in any similar period during all of last year. The company sells direct to farmers throughout the country. It maintains an information department for the benefit of stock raisers. During the past 150 salesmen have been employed to make direct contact with farmers. This force is to be raised to 300. Mr. Vansant is of the opinion that the farm and live stock situation is improving and that the government’s policy of aiding the farmer is responsible.

SALES OF STRINGER MERCHANDISING MACHINES INCREASE

| : |Jspp 3 "*dil

Peanut merchandising machines being moved from the warehouses of the Roy Stringer Company. Roy Stringer, head of the firm, states that scenes like this happen daily now. Business has already increased 50 per cent over the month of January, 1933. During the first fifteen days of this month machines were shipped to Beaumont, Tex., New Orleans, La., St. Petersburg, Fla.; San Francisco, Cal.; Philadelphia, Pa.; New York, and South Bend. A large shipment was also made to Oslo, Norway.

MORE NEW BUSINESS STARTED DURING 1933 Gain of 55 Per Cent Over 1932 in Mississippi Valley. By Times Special CHICAGO, Feb. 17.—An indication of increased business confidence in the Mississippi valley is given by Mark Fenton, general industrial agent of the Illinois Central System, writing in the February issue of the Illinois Central magazine. Mr. Fenten reports that 112 new industries of forty-five diversified types located on the system in 1933. Distributed • among seventy-two cities and towns, the industries represent a total capital investment of $7,009,500 and employ 3,773 workers. The increase in number of new industries as compared with 1932 was 55 per cent. “This showing during a depression year is a decided index of the trend that American industry is taking in its shift from the congested east to the Mississippi valley,” writes Mr. Fenton. “Here we have raw materials, labor, markets, transportation, power, industrial sites, water, climate and living conditions which combine most advantageously.” SANTA FE INCREASES . CAR AIR CONDITIONING Prepares Eighty-Nine Units for Use of Summer Tourists. Eighty-nine air-conditioned cars will be ready for summer travel on Santa Fe limited trains, announces W. J, Black, passenger traffic manager. Air-conditioning already has been applied to twenty-three Santa Fe dining cars, and these diners, operated by Fred Harvey, are now in service. Thirty-six more of the road’s dining cars, lounge cars and cafeobservation and club cars are immediately to be air-conditioned, while thirty sleeping cars are also to be similarly treated, Mr. Black states, adding that it will thus be possible to include certain airconditioned equipment this summer on every one of the Santa Fe’s limited trains. Mr. Black believes that the added comfort of air-conditioning, plus the economy of the new low seres and reduced sleeping car charges, will greatly increase the number of summer vacationists seeking western playgrounds.

Serving Wines, Liquors The fine art of serving wines and liquors at table is a “lost art” to many hosts and hostesses whose only experience has been obtained during the “wild-party” period of the prohibition-bootleg era. The temperate and proper use of wines and liquors with the dinner is as different from the “gin party” now passing into the discard as night is different from day. Our Washington bureau has just off the press anew bulletin, compiled by an expert, from the most authoritative sources giving the host and hostess full information on the serving of wines and liquors with meals. An illustration shows the full complement of the most modern glassware needed for the proper service of liquors for all occasions. It contains a section giving recipes and formulas for the proper concoction of all sorts of mixed drinks, tells which wines should be served with various courses of the dinner and will be an indispensable guide to the host and hostess who desire to provide their guests with suitable drinks at their dinner party, reception or other function.

DECLARES MOST DF U, S. HOMES NEED REPAIRING Editor of American Builder Gives Estimate of 90 Per Cent. By Times Special WASHINGTON. D. C.. Feb. 17 Ninety per cent of the residential pioperties in the United States today need minor or major repairs, alterations or modernization, according to E. L. Gilbert, editor of the American Builder, who urges “a billion dollars in federal mortgage money for self-liquidating loans on residential property.” Calling attention to the fact that property depreciates at the rate of 2 per cent a year, Mr. Gilbert illustrates his plea for modernization with charts of “work needed” and “work done.” Homes that have stood for years without a protective coating of paint or needed repair work depreciate eVen more rapidly, it is pointed out. Because of inactivity during 1929 to 1932, Mr. Gilbert sees a need for “nearly thirteen billions of vork in the residential field. At least half of this great need for housing must fall within the classification of modernization and hpme repairs.” Private capital, Mr. Gilbert believes, “will be heartened if federal funds are made available to home owners and prospective home owners for modernization, home repairs and new home building. A leader is always required during uncertain times and there is no more effective and influential leadership than can be given by the government of the United States.” If congress does direct such action, Mr. Gilbert sees far-reaching benefits "in the prompt decline in applications for relief by buildings mechanics, in the certain improvement of local trade and in the stimulation of capital goods industries. Every dollar of money so expended will be in the form of a selfliquidating loan of the finest security any government might wish the homes of its citizens'” RETAIL GROCERS WILL MEET MONDAY NIGHT Indianapolis Association to Hear Charles H.
