GHoosier Boy Invites All to the Hospital
ties of Home and Indiana.
H. L. c. FRIENDs-On behalf of other
Indiana members and myself, [ wish TO
heartily welcome the members of other
states to our Hoosier home and capital. Asa
business center indianapolis ranks among
the first, according to size, OF any city in
The West. The state-hOuse has scarcely a
superior, either east or west. The new
Union depot is a grand work OF art, the
pride of Its builders, and it commands the
unbounded admiration OF all visitors.
Other public buildings and benevolent in
situations are sufficiently large and we'll
arranged tc meet the demands for which
they were designed. Especially is this
true of the asylum for the insane, and, as
1t has rooms to spare, we will fill some OF
them if persons persist in saying the II.
/. G. is dead.
The educational advantages OF Indiana
are good, and our schools are in a prosper
ous condition. Nearly every county in
the state uses the new-text books and
highly approves Of them. The cost is less
than half the amount charged by Van
Antwerp, Bragg q Co. Is 1t wonder that
that firm can give presents so Literally?
In a social respect, we Hooslers don ac-
knowledge any superiors, and those who
entertain doubts on the subject should
come over and eat with US at the holidays.
Come to my home. Some OF the Indiana
members will be here 10 help entertain,
while / am finding something TO supply
the needs OF travel-worn humanity. This
reminds me that our cook is away for
few DAYS Just now, and ! am looking after
the duties devolving upon that function
ary with somewhat gratifying success to
the guests and all concerned. Well, |
guess we will pull through; l manage
to get something on the table OF about
everything find that seems digestible,
except the bosses OF the poultry depart
ment
think that every member should es-
pecially ieel proud of TIE SENTINEL and
while | am up will urge that every
member, regardless Of party or sex, read
carefully the political leaders concerning
the management OF government affairs,
the kind OF men appointed, etc.
Decide for yourselves if tariff reform is
needed or wOman's rights, etc, and be
prepared to give a reason for the faith
that's in YOU"
Several have spoken to me of the clubs
need of printed stationery. We can ar
range with THE SENTINEL company to do
the printing and by buying a considerable
quantity will get it cheap. | think we
should use size six or six-and-a-half en-
velOpe as this would suit best for all pur-
poses and those accustomed to smaller
ones will like them after using short
time. Some OF the paper could be
same size of envelope, but the
most of it should be wider
and the name of the club and address
should be printed on the upper left hand
corner OF the envelope. Then the secre-
tary viii number each name as it appears
on the list Of due receipts for next year.
This number could be written on the
envelope. THE SENTINEL would then turn
over all returned mail to the treasurer,
who will keep a copy OF the printed list.
Those who have a pOstOflice box, or aim
TO have next year, can have the number
OF the box and postofiice added, printed
on the envelope.
1t is essential to have the name of the
club and the address on the envelope, as
several hundred postmasters and mail
clerks will see during the next few months
where we are located.
The paper should have the name Of the
club in large script type in circular form
in the center, near the top, and the address
on a straight line beneath, above the
name of officers in small type, date of
organization, aim, object, initiation fee,
dues, etc Let us hear from others as to
approval corrections and additional plans
Let every member prepare to send The
SENTINEL next year as a holiday gift to
one or more friends whom you hope to
interest in our work. A good paper as a
present is preferable to many other things.
1t would prove a weekly reminder of
your good Will all through the year. Those
who happen in the city should not fail to
call at THE SENTINEL office. The editors
will be glad to talk with you as much as
their limited time will admit
"Aunt Sue" | trust you are able to let
us hear from you. | was truly glad that
YOU are strong for the cause. ! hope your
paper will reach YOU now all right. If any
others are not receiving papers promptly,
write the editor, or Miss Anna X.
Guenther, So Hall Place, Indianapolis.
Every member should write a letter or a
postal to the secretary, Miss Eliza Otto,
box 413 Bloomington, Ind, giving name,
postOffice address, county and state. She
will know who are for the club. Inclose
