HARD SURFACE ROAD FROM TERRE HAUTE TO RICHMOND IN 1922

Comfort and Good Sense Feature Men's Fall and Winter Clothes

INDIANAPOLIS. Sept. 27. As the fall touring season is now in full sway it is a matter of interest to all motor car owners that good prosgress has been made in the matter of permanent road improvement in various sec

ticularly to the footwear. Thus you have the verdict of local clothing dealers as to what M'Lord should wear. Among the new things in men's suits that are becoming very popular

is also gratifying that improvement of the gravel and macadam roads is now becoming general. This latter work will be advanced materially un

der the road patrol maintenance law which our organization succeeded In getting through the legislature." Mr. Noblet states that the hard surface pavement on the National Old Trails road will be open clear through Marion county the first of October, and that the pavement is extending eastward into Hancock county at a steady rate, with prospect of being completed to Greenfield, 21 miles east of Indianapolis, by Oct. 15. Between Indianapolis and Terre Haute the National road now has 38.8S miles of hard surface roadway, according to an official of the state highway commission. Because of the fact that numerous bridges are being con

structed along this route, however, it is not practical for tourists to attempt

to follow the National road from Terre Haue through to Indianapolis.

The condition of the old roadway, however, is reported as fair and the detours are in fairly good condition,

especially in dry weather. It is expected this entire route will be completed by this time next year. To the east there are several detours, one near Greenfield, one at Lewisville and another at Dublin. Completion of the hard surface pavement into Richmond will be accomplished by late next year, it is stated. This will give, by that time, a hard surface roadway clear across the state from Terre Haute to Richmond.

being very few made in the plain

styles. The belt suits that were so popular

last winter and fall are not being worn

so much this fall except in sport suits. This style suit is used mostly in the Herringbone and the tweede suits. The trousers of the suits are largely on the same order as in previous years ankle length trousers and rather tight fitting. A few of the bell bottom trousers also will be worn and some of the trousers will not have the cuffs on the bottom. Brown Popular Color. The most popular color for suits this fall will be the brown in the plainer styles. Gray is also very popular. Pin stripes meet with popular favor. Very few suits will be seen with belts and pleats.

Double breasted coats are also becoming more popular this year and a good many will be worn. The double

breasted coats will be worn mostly in the pin stripe and brown suits.

Overcoats for the coming season will be practically the same as last season.

The heavy belted coats will possibly be the most popular this year, although there will be a large number of the

light and plain coats worn. The col

lars on the overcoats will be the large

roll collars. Popular colors for the

gray. Woolen socks for men again will be a popular fad this winter and fall and many oxfords will be worn. , More Hata Worn. Styles in headwear for the men have

undergone a decided change, and it is thought that there will be more hats worn this year than there will be caps. The hats are small shape having the small curl brims. There also will be a few cloth hats but possibly not as many will be worn as

in previous years, very rew stiff hats

will be seen.

Caps for the coming season are

mostly the tweed and herringbone caps, being on the small style as last year.

A new style shirt that has not been

worn very much in the rail win be worn considerably. These shirts

have low collar attached. The shirts

will be mostly soft shirts. Something

new in the shirt line that is expected to become popular is the soft cuff and pleated front shirt. Ties will be mostly of the small narrow type. Shoes Are Sensible. Shoes especially are getting away from the extreme style and are becoming more sensible and comfortable. The extreme English shoes will be discarded. The most popular shoe today is the brogue oxford and shoe. The men are getting away from the dark brown shoe and are wearing' a lighter tan shoe. The black shoe also is becoming more popular this fall than in previous years. The black shoe is practically the same style that has been worn in the tan. Cordovan shoes are becoming very popular for winter use. Thus the well-dressed man will find that simplicity is the prevailing note this year.

EAST AURORA, N. Y., Sept. 27. What Is East Aurora doing since Elbert Hubbard and his wife went down on the Lusitania? People come here wondering if they will find slackness

or decay in the home of the Roycrofters. Instead, there is trim neatness about the plant, the same busy craftsmen at work in the 6hops, the same unusual atmosphere of tranquility which somehow has always pervaded the place. The Roycroft plant, you doubtless remember, is the project started by Elbert Hubbard 25 years ago. Hubbard had lived in the village of East Aurora for 30 years without giving any signs of one day making it famous. He was in the soap business then, and had be kept on mixing soap would in time have been a millionaire, as his partner, Larkin, became. But the life of a soap merchant pall

ed on the artistically inclined Hubbard. At 38 he took the first step toward reclaiming his individuality. He sold out and went to Harvard. Then he started a little printing shop in East Aurora, and with his

j philosophy, his writings and his per

sonality, he gathered about him the Roycroft community and gradually built what is now the Roycroft plant with 250 workers. East Aurora was on the map in a quiet way as a New York village before Hubbard's personality began to flower. Hubbard made it popular, and gradually East Aurora became synonymous with Roycroft and Elbert Hubbard. You cannot write or talk about one without implying the others. The homes of the village are mainly the

craftsmen's homes. The whole com

munity seems to center on the shady ; street where the low ivy-covered shops I of the Hubbard plant stand. I

Hubbard took it for granted that the world would recognize that he and his Roycrofters made East Aurora

what it has become. When East Aurora got a new railroad station, Hubbard wrote to the railroad company and asked permission to make the station sign and put the cabalistic Roycroft trademark on it beside the name East Aurora. The railroad company was astounded at the suggestion. Never had any advertising marks been allowed on a station sign, and they promptly informed Mr. Hubbard of the high and long-standing traditions of the road. But Hubbard was not

vanquished. He persisted in his argu-

crofters is Elbert Hubbard II. Externally, Hubbard's son is a sort of copy of him, but with some variations. His hair is not long as his father, Fra Elbertus, . wore his. And the younger Hubbard bears less of a resemblance to William Jennings Bryan, than his father did. But young Elbert

Hubbard wears a homesDun suit ofi

brown, comfortable shoes, and the flowing black tie that his father affected. This tie is a sort of Roycroft badge. The young men who work in the shops at bookbinding, metal work and illuminating, quite generally wear these flowing black or blue ties, partly,

we imagine as a concession to the artistic temperament, but more as a

! tribute to the departed leader.

Elbert Hubbard II. sits down to talk, but he is interrupted every few minutes by messages and consultations. Obviously, he is no figurehead in the plant. "Elbert Hubbard left tne Roycroft plant as a monument," he explains, "and I am preserving it as a live monument. People have told me that I am submerging my own personality here, but I do not agree with them. I find satisfaction in bringing father's work to other people, and I can do things for him along that line that he never had time to do himself. "The Roycroft community should go on in his way until something better can replace it and I believe that is

a long way off. He builded better

than he knew."

Hubbard's big idea, his son reminds you, wa3 work. He contended that there is no such thing as menial labor. He said, "The man that has a job is lucky." It was one of his favorite axioms, and he played with fhe idea in all sorts of epigrams, such as "Happy is the man who has found his work." But though Hubbard regarded all

work as sacred, he was discriminating J

enough to realize that creative work is more interesting and satisfying than purely mechanical processes. So when he started his craft shop he installed machinery for only the tedious processes. For the rest he' believed the old simple ways of doing craftswork were best.

Works by Hand I Men and women were set to work making things by hand, spending as much time as necessary on their bookbinding, sawing or modeling with no

strict factory rules to drive them on. Hubbard further sought to insure contentment and industry by making his factory co-operative. If a workman had a share in the profits he figured that there was nothing to fear from capital-labor difficulties. The shops he built of stones, which the farmers were glad to sell for a dollar a load. They were low, welldsigned buildings; set in green lawns and partly covered with vines. Hubbard set out to make his shops attrative as another means of contenting his workers, especially the boys and girls of East Aurora. He disliked

to see the young people growing restless at home on the little farms. Yet he disliked still more to hear that

this one or that had left for the city.

to take care of visitors. A bank was started to encourage the Roycrofters to save their money. Elbert Hubbard II. is, he himself says, more of a business man than a literary genius or pioneer. He finds enough to do simply carrying on. He does not 'indulge to interesting experiments, as his father delighted to do. In the first Hubbard's day, Roycroft was a cumulative project, always broadening and branching out. Now it seems to be advancing straight ahead.

Circuit Court

DOMESTIC SERVANTS SCARCE IN NEW YORK

(By Associated Press) NEW YORK. Sept. 27 Domestic labor is so scarce in New York that in thousands of homes, normally well supplied with servants, the mistress is doing her own housekeeping. Maids and butlers are said by employment bureaus to prefer being out of work to taking jobs at less than the high wage

scales prevailing last year. Of many reasons advanced by employment agencies for the failure of servants and employers to agree, one of the most common is that prospective maids seek work only because their husbands are jobless and are refused places because prospective em

ployers will not consider applicants for temporary positions. ( Prevailing wage scales are said by employment agencies to be: cooks, $50 to $70 a month; general housekeepers, $40 to $50; chambermaids, $50 to $60. Japanese butlers command $100 to $125 a month with board and lodging.

A petition for adoption of James Dodson was filed by James and Emma Blythe in circuit court Tuesday morning. Suit for divorce, alleging infidelity, was filed Tuesday by Ollie Viola Schwab against John Cyrus Schwab. She asks absolute divorce and the custody of the three minor children, Harry, Verne and Louis. Evidence for the plaintiff in the case of Corathwaite vs. Miller estate took up the greater part of the morning session of the circuit court Tuesday.

Starlings Show Dislike For War Preparations (By Associated Press) GARDEN CITY, N. Y.. Sept 27. Starlings ought to attend the coming armament limitation conference en masse, for they have demonstrated to the people of Garden City that they dislike war. When in 1917, the soldiers came

tramping down to Camp Mills and the flying fields around Mineola, the birds, imported from England 20 years before, fled. They stayed away until Mills was abandoned and the flying fields became less active. Now they are back, nesting in the spire of the Garden City cathedral, and making Hempstead Plains echo with their chatter.

Every car owner has a different reason why he should ba given another chance. Sometimes, my speedometer was wrong. Sometimes, his was wrong, or else he simply wasn't going that fast at all. Yet they are all alike in one thing, they don't want to pay their fines. "What particular owner, or set of owners, makes the most trouble?" he was asked. "Generally it is the flivver owner. He always has something to say. Generally they claim their Car won't run that fast. You can always get more arguments out of a flivver owner

than out of the driver of a high priced car.' "The queerest alibi I ever heard in police court," remarked a bystander, "was from an out of town driver. He was coming through here on his way to a northern town to have his car looked over at the factory. It seems that it wouldn't go fast enough. "The fastest it would go," he said "was 30 miles an hour." "He Mas going 45 when they caught up with him."

The town had a disreputable-looking shack in which to buy its tickets and pass the time of day. But four years ago Hubbard turned his attention to the depot. Every month his magazine carried an intense editorial about the awful depot situation at East Aurora. One month he printed a picture of the ramshackle station and beside it his new palatial concrete heg pen. That was too much for the railroad. It surrendered and even sent the plans for the new station to Hubbard for his approval. Today, the guiding spirit of the Roy-

Put into the Bank the Money you have put in the Fire

THIS is a characteristic of rich men: A rich man never hesitates to throw away old equipment if he can save money by doing so. One of the richest bankers in the United States took out the ten-year old boiler from his cellar this Summer and installed a new heating plant made by this Company. Why? Because by doing so he can save about one-third of what he has been spending for coal. Yet families of modest means go on heating their homes with old furnaces or stoves and suppose they are being economical. It is false economy. You can put into the bank every

winter one-third of what you are now putting into the fare. You can with ARCOLA ARCOLA is the wonderful new heating invention for small homes, with or without basements, that takes the place of a furnace or stoves.
