Inside Indianapolis

WE GREW IN JKNOWLEDGE--and in Size, we. fear—during | a trek along 3200- 3300 'N. Pennsylvania °

st. yesterday. Thinking back we can't decide whieh of the. street's features deserves first mention: its unique landscapes, the cordiality of its residetits, or its exceptionally gdod (and -generous) cooks. . . . For the first time in our life we t&8ted shortin’ bread and also quincebutter. We're still nibbling on Modjeska candy, and “white” peaches Which- we were too stuffed to do justice, what with the shortin’ bread, ‘cheese sticks, bread and quince butter and— but it miakes us hungry to go on, , ,. Lest we sound gluttonous, well be guick to point out that food was not the highpaint of our visit. We had a wonderful time inspecting a collection of corn pitchers at the home ‘of Mrs. Henry A. Little, 3346 N. Pennsylvania, Since she bought her first one in 1936,

Mrs. Little has rounded out a collection of 101 pieces

of the antique Majolica ware, fashioned after ears of corn, She's ferreted out the rare” pitchers in many ways, from haunting antique shops all over the country to putting her maid up to looking for them in other homes. From Mrs. Little we learned something about handling old pitchers. Never, never, says the woman who should know, pick a pitcher up by the handle, Quite often the handles are weak or mended. They break and there you are; stuck for the price “of a pitcher. The proper way is to insert several fingers inside the pitcher, thus affords ing a g grip in a spot less likely to “give.” That, and other facts learned during’ our wandering, yesterday, make us feel quite learned. . . . The Littles have one of the most unique yards we've ever seen in Indianapolis. Their backyard is covered in part with ‘a forest-like thicket, so thick that you can see only a few feet ahead. If you follow a winding path you end up at a rustic outdoor kitchen and dining ‘room, built -by. Mr. Little: and christened “The Coop.” And not too far’ away (were not giving out how to get there) is a garden, possessing as one of its many features an abundant “white” peach tree. There's no nicer way to gather material, we're convinced, than lolling under a peach tree, frequently testing to make sure the crop is ripening all right. . , . The Littles’ dog, Sugar, shares her master’s taste for peaches and her, mistresses’ yen for corn. Not only did she join us at the peach tree. She frequently eats corn, Mrs. Little told us, taking it between her paws and gnawing at it just like & human. . . . As far as Mrs. Little knows, her collection of corn ware is the largest around here. She has heard of ‘a collector in Austin, Ind. but has never been able to contact him,

It Was a Welcome Shower YESTERDAY'S DRIBBLE of rain was more than welcome to 6-year-old Dessa Margaret Kuehrmann, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Otto Kuehrmann, 3332 N. Pennsylvania. While we were sampling some of Mrs. Little's quince butter, Dessa came over to show off her new blue plaid raincoat, with hat to match. Dessa, better known as “Babbie,” had been waiting and waiting for some rain to’ try her coat out in, so yesterday's shower provided its baptismal. . She's still waiting for a heavier shower, for the “acid test.” , .. A minor crisis was at its peak when we dropped in on Mrs. Charles D. Babcock, of 3307. During the rush of moving back in from the summer home, a screw driver had been misplaced. And that very screw driver was important to the welfare and happiness (not to mention the bicycle) of young David Babcock. It all ended well, with the screw driver being discovered and David going happily to work putting back -together something he'd just taken apart, or vice versa. Another member of the Babcock family, voung Barbara, also is having trouble. Barbara is an ardent °follower of ait

Presidential Lore

WASHINGTON, Sept. 11 (U, P:).—When the President of the United States gets a tickling in the threat his doc makes him quaff cough syrup brewed S. Navy. This medicine tastes elegant, like orange-flavored drinking liquor. And if taken in sufficient quantity, would have the same effect. The White House dispensary ladles out this lovely stuff (whenever they get hoarse) to all its denizens, including A. Merriman Smith, who writes all the United Press bulletins about Presidents. He knows about that cough medicine personally. What I'm getting at is that Mr. Smith has written a book, published today, titled “Thank -You, Mr. President,” and devoted exclusively to facts about Presidents Roosevelt and Truman, their troubles, and their travels. Mr. Smith knows. He was there,

Other Books Coming COMING UP In the next few weeks are a dozen other books about President Roosevelt, by such folks as his son, Elliott; his secretary of labor, Madame Frances Perkins: his press representative, Jonathan Daniels, and .numerous others. Few of them spent so much time with. the President as my man Smith. Not one mentions cough syrup or takes his reader on a tour of the Presidential yacht, where gold flagons of toilet water repose on the Presidential dresser, “On ship to

My Day

HYDE PARK, Tuesday.—T forgot to tell you that, last Saturday morning, a committee of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows of New York came here to present me with the “resolutions which the annual convention at Troy, N. Y., had passed in memory of my husband. I had hoped to go to Troy to receive these resolutions but, when I was unable to go, they very kindly came here and then went over to my husband's grave to place a wreath, Desires Thwarted WHEN I WAS TALKING the other day with the staff caring for the blind people at the camp in Corn-all-on- Hudson, N. Y., they told me of one of their difficulties. Frequently people want to leave their eyes, after death, for tife use of sightless people. the optic nerve is not affected, it is possible apparently, within a short period after death, to transplant the window of the eye and have it serve a living person.
