SAYS BICYCLE RIDER NEED NOT HAVE BELL; : . HAS TROUBLE ENOUGH Discussion of a new traffic ordinance, amendments to the building rode and theatre ordinances featured the meeting of the ordinance committee of the city council In ahe office of City Attorney William Kelley Tuesday evening. Members of the committee will make a special Inspection trip of all the theatres to see what conditions are during the rush hours. Definite action on the long delayed matter of an appropriation to furnish n car for the police of the city Is expected as a 'result of the meeting Tuesday evening. Councilman Joseph Walterman stated. The ordinance making an appropriation for two police cars was referred to the commit tee about a month ago, with instruc tions from council to make it apply to "one high power motor car. The or dinance incorporating this change will be introduced at the next council meeting. Testing Brick. The matter of amending the build ing code which had been discussed at the last meeting of council, was brought un Tuesday evening. The members of the ordinance committee are awaiting a report from a labora tory where a sample of fire brick was sent for test. As soon as this reply is received they will be able to make a report on the matter. "As far as a traffic ordinance is concerned," said Mr. Walterman, Wed nesday., "the committee is progress ing as fast as it can. But we have many old ordinances to look over, and ; these old ordinances will be disposed of before the new one is framed, in : order to insure that the new one is : binding. Many Details "Not only do we have to dispose of these old ordinances, but we must con form with the state laws as well, and we must take into consideration the ordinances of other Indiana towns, so that tourists passing through will not be in doubt as to how we stand. "The "lty attorney . Is flooded with ' city business at the present time, and this results in some delay. For instance, no city property can be sold ' at present without a special ordinance passed by the council. Discussion of the traffic ordinance by the committee brought out the fact that an automatic stop and go sign. J if tilaced at Elchth and Main streets i would be hidden from sight at times . when street cars were passing. How ; ever, a sign Indicating no left turn3 ; will be placed at this crossing, with ' a stop and go sign operated Dy an ot ficer. To Relieve Officer Some effort will be made to provide for relieving the officer at this corner oftener than in the past, as tnis is said to be a difficult job. The 30-minute parking rule on Main street was indorsed by the committee. - ' The proposal to have interurhans top discharging passengers on Main street was dropped as impracticable at last Tuesday's meeting. "It takes little time for the interurbans to discharge passengers here, ' and they have to stop anyway to throw the switch." said Mr. Walterman. "Such a rule would be hard to: . enforce and would mean little saving to the city if enforced." Need Not Have Bell " The timid bicycle rider who hurries " along Main street with one eye on the road ahead and one eye out for ,' automobiles on the rear, or from each side, will be left in peace as far at furnishing an alarm for his machine is concerned. The provision for a bell and a light on his wheel, as requested ' in the recommendations of ', the chief of police and the automobile men of the city, will be disregarded. The reason, according to Mr. Waltermann, is plain. The committee feels that there is little danger of automobile drivers of " the city being run over and injured by vicious or reckless bicycle riders, 1 according to his statement. "The bi- . cycle rider has all he can do to keep X out of the way of the automobiles." he ' stated. An ordinance providing that street fakers must keep at least 50 feet from Main street when loudly discussing the merits of their wares for the benefit of the general public, is under consideration by the committee. This ordiuance is the result of ' complaint in ' council Monday evening that fakers were stopping traffic at street intersections on Saturday nights. ' The ordinance committee will meet ' once more before council meets, Mr. Waltermann stated. EGG LAYING CONTEST BOOSTS PRODUCTION IN INDIANA, IS REPORT J3v Associated Press) LAFAYETTE. Ind., April 19. The state-wide egg laying contest, which is - being conducted by the poultry extension staff of Purdue university, is dedared at the school to be a decided i factor in Increasing the egg production of farm flocks in Indiana. This ; i- being brought about through the inl fluence of the university and those enl gaged in the contest in encouraging the adoption of better methods of feefii ing. management and other things ! which influence profits in the poultry ' business, it la said. A striking example of this was in Knox county where the second egg laying contest closed Feb. 28, it has been pointed out. Fifteen flocks out of 19 made a record of more than 100 pggs per hen. Three others were between 95 and a hundred, with one as low as 76. Comparing these results , with those of the previous year, it is rotable that every flock but three showed an increase in the number of eegs per year for each hen from (ven ; to 40. ; The increase, it is declared, was due Un he keeping of better breeding ' stock, better feeding and housing. The ; aim ot" the contest is to bring the average production of Indiana hens above 100 eggs per year, which is 15 to 20 above the state average at this time. " The rank of lieutenant has been 'onfered upon Robert Philpot, ten, of California, by Governor Stephens for the boy's wonderful four-minute talks J during two different drives. Lie utenant Philpot is the youngest officer iu the United States army.

April 19. Authority exercised by the state tax board in making tax assessments against savings banks was wiped out today by the appellate court, in a deciion confirming the Tippecanoe uperior court order, enjoining Tippecanoe county officials from collecting taxes on an assessment of $50,900 made in 1910, against the LaFayette Savings bank, by the state board. . In declaring the state board assessment illegal and void, the appellate court ruled however; "that the power to assess savings banks is expressly delegated to the county board of review."

TRASH RECEPTACLES WILL BE REQUESTED OF BOARD OF WORKS . , I ... . The board of works will be request-. ed by the Aftermath club to have trash

receptacles turnisnea tne city ior meiieft nere today for Dayton, O., where

purpose of keeping the streets clear of rubbish and papers, according to an announcement maae weuntsuay uj Mrs. F. W. Stephens, chairman, who heads the clean-up week movement now being sponsored by the. club. A letter from Miss Clara Graves of the Garfield high school, to the Par-, ent-Teachers' associations of the city follows: "The Aftermath is putting on1 a campaign of cleaning up our city with thp. hpln of the citv council, and has asked our help and the co-operation of j all the Parent-Teachers' associations. It seemed to me that some definite thing should be taken up and I would suggest that each local organization place one or more recepticies tor waste paper near its own school and urge the children to put their waste paper in them and not on the streets." sues Clean-up Rules A number of rules for the clean-up week have been isued by Mrs. F. W. Stephens. The rules cover not only the cleaning up of unsightly places about the city, but suggestions for beautifying the city as well. Here they are: "Plant vines and shrubs to screen any unsightly object." In planting, keep an open center. avoid straight lines, arange in masses, "Remove dead branches from trees and shrubbery. Clean your yards of trash and rubbish." Sow grass seed or sod bare places." Remove Useless Sheds Remove sheds and barns if useless, and have flowers and vegetable gardens in their places. Repair walks and walls and fences. Neatly pile any material which must be kept in (yards. Paint fences and houses. Whitewash is preferable to dirt and dingi-no-ss. Improve conditions all about your premises. Looks for Endorsement. "I believe all who read this sugges tion and have an understanding value of the city's appearance will heartily j endorse it. "Then let's encourage the Council to put rubbish boxes wherever they are needed. Our streets are shamefully littered with paper. Look at the post office block and about the high school building for proof of this. We need a conscience for the hall-ways of our city. They should be as highly respected as are those of our homes. "Mrs. Dudley Foulke generously donated six trash receptacles to the city twelve years ago. This good example should have been followed with a sufficient number to prove the value of them. The Aftermath is asking the Board of Works to supply the city with this much needed improvement. Want Better Streets "Then we are hoping we will not see such soiled streets, loose paper blowins: about, a menace to health and safety: a source of annoyance. Clean l source oi annoyance. streets contribute to tne Srai beauty scheme of a city Civic pride for our community, love for order, these should prompt us, become a passion with us. "Mrs. F. W.
