CITY OFFICIALS NOT ALWAYS TO BLAME

Sometimes It's the Other Way Round and Property Own ers Refuse to Help by Showing an Altrurian Spirit. Sothern-Marlowe Engagement.

ZEMO FOR DANDRUFF

You Will Be Surprised to See Quickly If. Disappears.

How

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. In reply to a number of Inquiries concerning the Sothern-Marlowe engagement in the Murat Theater, Indianapolis, Deginning Thursday night. May 2nd, and continuing the rest of the week, the writer takes pleasure In stating that "The Taming of the Shrew" will be presented on Thursday night, May 2nd. "Romeo and Juliet," on Friday night, May 3rd, "The Merchant of Venice," on Saturday afternoon, May 4th, and "Hamlet" on Saturday evening of the 4th. This will be one of the notable events of the Indiana theatrical season and large bookings from over the state are being made by the management of the Murat. Julia Marlowe is one of the most accomplished Shakesperean actresses of this or any other day and, now in her prime and the fulness of her art, should be seen by " very-one having the opportunity. '

But in this they were. When officials are willing to give the aesthetic aspects of the city's mise en scene some consideration, certainly it is not opposition from the most cultured element that would be expected.

There is a good deal of . humbug and

grandstanding done about a lot of things.

But when you hew right down to the line you get at the truth now and then. And here is one. A householder, representing one of

the most advanced phases of the city's

life, refused to make a civic sacrifice.

No more dirty coats from dandruff heads. Zemo stops dandruff. Apply it any time with tips of fingers. No smell, no smear. Zemo sinks into the pores, makes the ecalp healthy, makes the hair fine and glossy. Zemo is prepared by E. W. Rose Medicine Co., St. Louis, Mo., and is regularly sold by all druggists at $1 per bottle. But to enable you to make a test and prove what it will do for you, get a 25-cent trial bottle fully guaranteed or your money back at Quigley's Drug Stores.

been noted even by himself after its end had been accomplished. And, by refusing, created an adverse public condition. So far as the trees are concerned, the citizens of this town continually are being sacrificed by ill-judged offi

cial action. Long and loud has been the waiL And justifiably. But when the longed for chance is given to conserve this decorative asset of a town, it is not accepted because

of an undue insistence on a retention

of Individual holdings.

It is too bad the city officials arent

given some encouragement when they show signs of a change of heart. Things are as they are, and, in the necessary changes incident to the growth of a municipality, the best must be done that can be done. Usually the worst Is done. There was a chance in this Instance for the best. This opportunity was nullified by the very sources of protest. It's a pity. But Its true. And its disheartening, if you care to stop long enough to think about it, that every "good and perfect thing" must be fought for.

The forces of destruction are dominant. The will to kill an obsession. The desire to crush omnipresent. Every inch humanity has advanced represents its triumph over the combined powers of the universe. Let superiority rear its head. The demons jump at it with bared

claws and distended fangs.

j And, paradoxically enough, you and the good smiling from unexpected j places. i What is termed good is not alwavs

good. That denominated bad is oftener than not the basis of good. "Good" "bad" what are they? Mere names. There is nothing distinctly one thing or the other in the universe. Everything overlaps, dovetails, fits in. and, in the end, is Indistinguishably commingled in the great meltingpot of life. And always you find the selfish mainspring of action.

Save in supreme moments as the sinking of the Titanic It is only in such superlative flashes that the god in man is manifest! When it comes to giving a piece of

his lot for a side-walk In order that the greater good may be accomplished he balks. Notwithstanding certain celetrate4 philosophers we are not altmrtans.

Save the Babies. INFA5TT MORTALITY is something frightful. We can hardly realize that of all the children bom in civilized countries, twenty-two rr cent., or nearly one-quarter, die before ther reach one year; thirtr-sevea percent, or more than one-third, before they aw five, and one-half bifar they are fifteen I . . . t . , , We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castona wouM save majority of these precious lives. Neither dv we hesitate to ay tliat many of these infantile deaths are occasioned by the uw of narcotics preparations. Drops, tinctures and soothing syrupa sold for children s complaints contain more or less opium or morphine. They are. in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity, they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria operates xactlr the reverse, but you must see that it bears the signature of Chas. IL Hetcher.

A good deal has been said of late about trees and their abuse or destruction by city officials and of the latter's disregard of the wishes and rights of property owners. But here is another story. With the credit balance on the side of the Board of Works. In front of two houses on the National Road West, just east of the college campus, are some fine trees which have not yet reached their maturity

and which the residents in that vicin

ity were interested in seeing saved. The trees are in front of the prop

erty of Mr. Atwood Jenkins but their

decorative effect and shade, affects the entire stretch of road, or street. The president of the Board of Works,

who happens to be the mayor, stated that the householders could arrange to have the walk made to save the

trees in any wa they chose. To most effectively accomplish this end for both the city and the residents, ' Mr. Jenkins offered to give the city part of the front line of his lot.

But the consent of the other house

holder was not forth-coming. And for the reason that the trees

were not directly before his property

but just on the other side of the line that divided his lot from that of Mr. Jenkins. He would, therefore, not agree to this arrangement by which the trees could be preserved. It was the only practicable way in which it could be done, and, without his consent, was impossible.

Although the trees are not placed, opposite his house they yet affect its appearance. Everyone, no matter how superficial his observation, knows what a difference the removal of a tree will make In the outward aspect of any building. For all that the public knew these trees were along the line of the latter's residence. This lack of altrurian spirit on the part of the supposedly most enlightened and superior element of the town speaks ill for this famed art center. Nothing is expected from low browed sidewalk contractors. But something is expected of the alleged high-brows. And when these fine trees are sacrificed, ten to one, the public interested will abuse the Board of Public Works and the city officials. When the truth is that they were perfectly willing to fall in with any , plan that would conserve the trees and be practicable for sidewalk construction. They have not been thus amiable in other instances.
