DEALERS WILL
CLOSE SUNDAYS
City Automobile Association to
Give Employes Day Off.
Sunday closing of automobile estab
lishments, a movement which has
been under way for some time" will
get into the limelight July 1 when
“Closed on Sunday,” signs provided
by the Indianapolis Automobile Trade
Association will appear In the door
ways of many of the prominent sales
rooms in the city.
John B. Orman, manager of the
association, said that for some time
several of the dealers have been
working to provide a day of rest for
their employes, many of whom are
prominently identified with churches
of the city.
“It is recognized that the mcti
who work all week selling automo
biles and automotive necessities are
justly entitled to a rest on the Sab
bath, for humanitarian reasons as
well as for devotional purposes,” he
said. “While the industry was in
the throes of readjustment there
seemed little chance of bringing
about the needed reform. Now,
however, with more sales and custom
ers than some establishments can
comfortably take care of, the auto
mobile business of the city needs no
Sunday forcing to assure ita success."

Carter in Superior Court, room 3. He

tion.

TELLS STUDENTS
ABOUT SELVES
Head of University of Minne
sota Gives Address.
“The high school student of today
possesses two areas of mental activ

done,” said President Lotus D. Coff
man of the University of Minnesota,
In his address to the 508 graduates
of the Arsenal Technical High Schools
at" the Cadle Tabernacle last night.
“The first includes an area of ap
plication and fundamentalism, in
which the students confront the ap
parently trivial, but in reality the first
vital, problems of their lives. This
area Is constituted by vocational
training and is preliminary to the
realization of life, the profound and
the beautiful of true life,” President
Coffman went on to say. "The second
embodies the appreciation of the arts,
literature, science and the languages.
The beautiful and noble la unclothed;
the students are placed in a position
to cope with the problems of Lfe.”

Brick, limestone, and other flre

This house is adaptable to a great
