LAWLESSNESS, OF
NURSERY CUED
BT NL B. HYBE
Pastor Urges Right Kind
of Training for
Children,
Declaring tha “adult anarchy is
nursery lawlessness." Dr. M. K
Hyde urged parents to give their
children the right kind of home
training. In a sermon Sunday on
"Training the Young People," at
Grace M. E. Church
“It takes no prophet to see that
the future of a family, community,
or a nation will depend upon the
children of the present,” he said.
“Another thing,” he said, “stands
out in the clear, and that is if the
future is to be better tlihn the
present, will he dependent upon the
training of the child of today. I)r.
Galton tells of 300 families of va
rious professions, out of which came
1.000 eminent men, 415 of whom
were illustrious, 41 we*o learned t.t**
vines and in IT cases their fathers
were ministers. The thought im
plied Is, their training in childhood
was of the most painstaking nature.
“Xhe mind of the child takes in
a vast deal of what it sees, but all
In a confused mass. The same is
true of all which springs up from
within, which responds to the good
and the evil.
Remove Confusion
“All this confusion from without
and from within must he removed.
To do this, and to properly fortify
the child, thus qualifying it for fu
ture usefulness, training must not be
neglected. One feature of child
training must Include the will. It is
far more important to train the will
than it is to train the mind.
“Adult anarchy is nursery lawless
ness. Hence the will must be trained
to submit to authority. Only man
mutinies, and man will not mutiny
unless permitted to mutiny in child
hood. Hence train the will." Dr.
Hyde urged.

CITY OBSERVES
NOT BAY WITH
VARIED PROGRAM
'
High School Students Hear
Stirring, Patriotic
Talks,
Indianapolis may be an inland city,
but the United States Navy played
an Important part in its civic life
today. More than 800 naval re
servists throughout the State joined
with civilians in the celebration of
XXavy day. During the morning
talks were made at the city high
schools, during which the Marine
corps airplanes en route from
Omaha. Neb., to Dayton, Ohio, flow
ever the city. To night, a concert
by the Naval Reserve Band, motion
pictures and yspeakers are on the
program as the closing event at
Xaval Reserve Armory, 17 E.
North St.
More History Needed
A strong plea for teaching more
history in the schools was made by
Julian Wetzel at Short ridge High
School.
"Wo need more history in the
schools," he said. “We don't want
our boys and girls to grow up be
lieving that Alexander Hamilton is
a motion picture actor and the
Mason-Dixon line a football forma
tion."
lie also made a plea for naval pre
paredness.
"Every war has been followed by
a craze for disarmament,” he said.
“People got the idea there
novel will war and let
tilings go to pot."
Navy Big Factor
He said the Navy was a big fac
tor In times of peace.
"It helped take ttv refugees- from
burning Smyrna and created a liH
ter feeling between the United
States and Japan by its splendid re
lief work after the Japanese earth
quake." lie declared.
He closed with a review of the ro
mantic history ntid heroes of the
Xavy.
It Is not necessary to wait for war
to show patriotism, -dith Niohol
son aid in his talk at Eenimorich
Manual Training High School.
“Be Ready to Serve”
"It is a sad thing that there are
so many second rat< non adminis
tering our Government in so many
places." h<- said. Patriotism can bo
shown by every one in civic affairs
in peace times in an effort to correct
these conditions. Be toady to serv>
in times of peaee as well as war 1
Ishovt- ;n true Americanism, but I
don’t think much of the - poisons
who try to reduce it to a math, mat:
cal equation and say they are 1 a
per cent Americans. Patriotism can
not be expressed mathematically.
Xaval preparedn* ss i- necessary,
lie said, because the time ha- not
yet come where we can afford riot
to be ready for war

“We close at 1 About ten min
utes before, this roan came over and

Three Indianapolis men—Julian D.
Bertrand, Albert Hankins and Earl

he said. One of the men threw out
a quart of liquor, he said, and Jones
pulled off his coat to mop it up for
evidence. He then placed the men
under arrest after difficulty. He said
bystanders refused to help him, with
the exception of Sam Montgomery,
who, he said, “was- the only one of
the bunch with any sand, even If he
is 77 years old."
The men were fined in Circuit
Court at Danville.

Sweeping investigation" of charges
that .Butler College students were in
toxloated at the dance at the Athe

W. Putnam of Butler College. Police
received reports that many young
men at the dance appeared in the
ball in an intoxicated condition.
“The college does not countenance
drinking among the students.” Dean
Putnam said. "I do not know that
any Butler men were drunk .at the
dance. I do know that some
times dances arc advertised as But
ler College affairs when the college
and its social organizations have
nothing to do with them. In this
particular case the college had noth
ing whatever to do with the dance.”
COMMITTEE IS STIRRED
Arrangements for a meeting (if
the committee appointed last spring
by Juvenile Judge Frank J. Go hr, in
compliance with request of Chief of
Police Herman Kikhoff, to draft a
new city dance hall ordinance, have
been speeded up by the murder Sat
urday night, said Miss Clara Burn
side, juvenile probation officer.
The committee is composed of
Lahr, E. O. Snethen, head of the In
dianapolis Federation of Civic Clubs;
Earl Conder of the Church Federa
tion and a city attorney. It has not
functioned to daejp, said Miss Burn
side, because it was appointed just
before vacations began spring
and members have never gotten to
gether.
“This shooting was an awful
thing," said Miss Burnside. “The
committee intended getting together
anyway, but this will spur things on.
Just last week Judge Lahr reminded
me to notify members."
A permit was issued for the dance
Saturday. Policewoman Anna Bru
ner, in charge of permits, said she
had an understanding with the
Athenaeum authorities that when

to be on duty at the dance. City
ordinance requires special policemen
at all public dances.
Chief Rikhoff is investigating
whether the custodian was at the
dance and whether any policewomen
visited it.

LETTER FROM LESLIE PRES
COTT TO THE GAY LITTLE
MARQUISE, CARE OF THE
ae SECRET DRAWER,
CONTINUED.
When Karl gave that rather ped
antic reproof to Alice. I felt exceed
ingly glad that I had married a
real flesh-and-blood man who under
the same circumstance would have
probably taken me out of the room
away from all the rest and shaken
me until my teeth chattered, and
then kised me when I wept and ac
knowledged by misdemeanor, aft-’r
which he, at least, would have for
gotten the whole thing.
That cold reproof, given before us
all. showed me that while Karl Whit
ney could be the most delightful of
friends and companions, he wquld
have probably bored me to death as
a husband.
The whole thing, however, made
a great impreaion upon John, prob
ably because he never could have
done it himself. 1 think it has
healed all the bad feeling between
the two men.
Now. little Marquise, the whole
family seems to be thipking only of
the great loss it has sustained in the
death of dear old dad, who will be
buried tomorrow.
I have not yet been able to make
it all real. I keep thinking I will
wake up soon and look into iny
father's eyes—eyes that have never
contained anything for me but love
and understanding. It will prob
ably be weeks before I will fully re
alize my loneliness without him, and
the magnitude of my loss.
I'm,•' wondering, dear little Mar
quise. if time ever softened your
sorrow, or if you wept always in
your heart, even xvhen your lips
smiled gaily after the loss of your
lover, the king. The few secrets
you have told me are still locked se
curely in the lovely old desk. John’s
mother did not succeed in finding
the secret drawer, and I shall tak"
steps to make it perfectly certain
that no one else does.
I shall always keep your one let
ter there, dear little Marquise, for
some way it seems to me you would
like it so: but as that drawer is get
ting very full. I am going to take
all my letters out on my return,
with tho exception of this long one,
and pla >e them in my own safety de
posit box. of which the key is on’y
in the keeping of myself. These
letters will not be read except I prive
permission, or until after I have
joined you beyond the confines of
time.
I don’t know what I would do
without you, dear, for some way
you clarify my mind almost as much
as though you were speaking au
dibly to me. I could write to no
one what I have written to you,
and sometimes it trebles my joys
and sometimes it mitigates my sor
rows to just put them in a letter to
you. So you see, little Marquise,
your sweetness and sympathy and
gaiety—for I know you had all
these —have helped greatly some
one who has lived hundreds of
years after you. and that one is

BUTLER PREDICTS
COOLIDGE-BAWES
SUCCESS NOV. 4
Republican Chairman Says
G, 0. P, Ticket Sure
to Win,
By United Prcxs
CHICAGO, Oct. 27.—William M.
Butler, chairman <sf the Republican
national committee, opened final
week of the political campaign to
day with a statement expressing con
fidence in success of the Coolidge-
Dawes ticket.
Farmers and working men, Butler
asserted, will support the Repub
lican ticket so that "the economic
condition—now so rapidly improving
—will not be disturbed.”
“Forces are at work to disrupt ev
erything,” Butler declared. “The So
cialist-Thlrd party nominee for
President has made his appeal to
the voters of the Mississippi Valley.
He has asked them to throw into
discard the Constitution, the very
protector of the welfare of the pea
pie. He has advocated Government
ownership of railroads and other
dangerous doctrines. Now he has
gone East, once more to plead these
theories to industrial workers.
We do not believe for one moment
that the American people will be
fooled. We are more confident than
ever they will elect Calvin
C< olidge President eight days hence.
We do not think that they will
countenance throwing this election
into Congress."
Declaring President Coolidge “more
than any other man in the world."
has contributed to establishing
prosperity, Butler closed his state
ment as follows:
“In tsating that we think Mr. Cool
idge will be overwhelmingly elected
cn Nov. 4, we base this belief upon
the desire of the citizens of America
to continue in the ways of peace and
prosperity."
IWJartha Lee’s
Colu m n
Heartless Husband
P**ar Miss Gee 1 am 24 years old. I
have two hoys by my first husband and
a baby eight weeks oid by this last hus
band. Before the last baby was bom I
had the boys with m<*. but my husband
did not like the baby boy. 2 years old.
He whipped them. So I took the boys
to my mother, who is keeping them now.
Their own father pays their way. But
when they eon e to see me. almost every
day. my husb ind raves and tells me I
must gave up either them or him. 1
used to love him dearly, but I doll t any
more
I know- I cannot make a living myself,
with a small baby, so what can I do?
My husband has been married before.
His wife got their child, so he ought to
know how tt is killing me to give up my
boys. I've told him he is kiiiing my
love for him. but he says t will learn
to love him again some day. I know I
won I. UNHAPPY MOTHER.
I cannot see that your third baby
would lose anything by being taken
from under the influence of a man
like your husband. And your other
two children, robbed of their father,
certainly are entitled to their
mother’s love and care.
So I advise you to leave your sons
with your mother, and to find a po
sition, probably as a housekeeper or
maid, where you can keep your baby
with you. If you can sew. you might
he able to support your children by
working in your home.
And, of course, there is a possi
bility that your husband, once he
realizes you really mean to keep
your children, may “about face."
For Halloween
Pear Martha Gee: 1. Could you sug
gest a way a large truck could be obtained
for an evening's use for a Halloween ride:
2. Should there be any introducing at a
party whin many are strangers to one an
other? if so how should it be done?
3. How could you manage to help one
who is a stranger to every one at the party
have a good time?
4 Would it be all right to hare a mask
party a week or more before Halloween ?
P. P.
1. Call a transfer company for
your truck.
2. Certainly introductions should
be made. Asa new guest arrives, in
troduoe him to a number of the
guests—do not “drag” him around
the room making introductions —and
see that he is with a congenial
group. Formal introductions no long
er are considered essential before
people speak at private parties. It
is supposed that everyone the hostess
would Invite is desitable.
3. Stay with the stranger long
enough to get him started in con
versation with other guests. Find
a subject you know to he of mutual
interest. For instance, if the
stranger is a sportsman, introduce
him toy-gome one else interested in
sports, with the remark: “You two
should be friends, as you both are
such ardent golf fans."
4. Yes.
