win be In excess Of 30 cents, as against
so cents for the past year. This increase
Is made necessary by the decreased tax
valuation Of Marion County property, the
increases granted teachers and librarians
in salary several months ago and the
constantly growing size Of the school
system in indianapolis.
One Of the most important matters to
be taken up at the meeting tonight Will
be the report Of Bert S. Gadd, member
of the board and L. A. Snider, Of the
firm Of Snider & Rotz, engineers for the
board, covering the results Of their in
vestigations into school building costs,
types Of construction used, ETC., in a

Evansville, Center Township of this
county and Morocco were visited.

State board of tax commissioners on the
proposed bond issue Of $S47 900 for the
erection of four new buildings and ad-
ditions at various schools In the city, OPP
ponents of the bond issue frequently
mentioned these schools visited by Mr..
Gadd and Mr.. Snider as examples Of
economy in school building construction
and insisted that comparative figures
showed the local school board has been
guilty of extravaganza in the erection Of
new buildings.
Members and legal representatives Of
the board insisted that until all facts
were at hand figures of comparative
costs were Of no value; that in some

BOYCOTT VOTED
ON MIKE GIBBONS
Labor Union Says Pugilist Is
AntagOnistic.
Special 20 Indiana Daily Times

and Philadelphia Public Ledger.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. S0-Some-
thing new IN boycotts has been intro
duced al q meeting Of the delegates to
the Central Labor Union Of this city.
II is charged that Mike Gibbons, the
well-known pugilist, took a decided stand
against the union workers in 81. Paul
and that he erected building with non
union labor. As q result the building
trades OF ST. Paul and Minneapolis sent
cut letters requesting all workers affili-
sted with the American Federation OF
Labor TO withhold their patronage from
any boxing show in which he may ap-
pear Hoping thereby to deprive Mr..
Gibbons of some very substantial guar
antees. The local body, which has 49,
600 members, adopted the suggestion.
Considerable discussion revOlved about
a petition which the Private Soldiers
and Sailors Union Of Washington, .. c.,
has presented to the Senate asking that
body to investigate the officials and
charter Of the American Legion. The
petition states the American Legion is
using its influence TO disparage organized
labor and its oeficers.-COpyright 1921,

ply more traffic than the canal can carry.
At present with 60 per cent Of the new
canal in a new location almost the en-
tire length the banks of the canal are
unoccupied by any industries. These
vacant sites will be ideal locations for
future industries that will have the two
transportation facilities of canal and rail-
road and in addition will have an
abundance of cheap electrical power from
the new st. Lawrence power develop
llent. The st. Lawrence will make the
New York Barge Canal a success by
bringing to its now vacant banks thriving
industries with cheap power, cheap
transportation and seaports at New York,
Buffalo, Rochester and Oswego."
In touching upon the electrical power
that would be generated as part Of the
project, DR.. McElwee said:
The market for the large amount Of
electrical power is already there by con
Meeting the present steam electrical
powerhouses with this new source or
power. The range Of the effectiveness Of
the three-quarters Of million horse
power, that viii become available to the
United States With the completion Of the
first dam, Will extend to northern Penn
sylvania, most OF New England and per
haps even to New York City. There is
already on foot the superpower Plan to
connect and coordinate all the power
plonts in thts area. With the nets OF
the existing steam plants and the ad-
Gitional distributing centers that could be
quickly developed the market for the
entire amount OF the initial dam already
IS available to a large extent. The share
Of the United States in this power Is
half again as much as the entire Niagara
power development. The revenue from
this power even from greatly reduced
rates would make the entire project an
excellent business proposition with the
transportation features 4 by-producl. The
advantages TO industries that viii locate
in this area, and the great necessity for
conserving our dwindling coal supply
that even at the present rate OF con-
sumption will be exhausted within a
hundred years, makes the immediate con-
servation Of the great energy daily run

PREITIEST GIRL IN TOWN
= MADE TO RUN FOR MAYOR

It is commonly accepted theory
that pretty face on woman pre-
cludes the possibility of brains be-
hind it. Why should there be? She
has never been encouraged to cult
Yate them. Isn't it possible that the
present status of women may in time
give the poor girl with pretty face
a chance?
.Woman's Place., Constance Tai
madge's latest First National picture,
which will be shown at the opera
house Thursday, opens with a Wo-
mems Political league which is trying
to do just this. At their meeting the
leader points out that in view of the
crooked politics of the town there's
nothing left for the women to do but
run a woman candidate for mayor rat
the next election. They decide to
put up the most attractive woman
they can fnd-brains don't matter
much in a mayor, anyway, says the
leader.
\ And so they select Josephine Ger
son, who looks like magazine cover
and who has just returned to town
with fourteen trunks of Paris clothes.
Josephine is portrayed by Constance
Talmadge, and the sort of campaign
she conducts can we'll be imagined.

story by John Emerson and Anita

stance Talnadge's leading mall. 10Th
ers in the cast are Hassard Short,

MISS IRENE JOHNSON
WEDS Mr.. OSCAR BEACH
Charleston American. Nth.

, Charleston American, 18th.
The marriage of Miss Irene John
! son. daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. Win
good Johnson, and Mr.. Oscar Beach,
of Nashville, Tenn, was solemnized
Wednesday evening at 80 o'clock IN
the Church of the Redeemer, the GER
emony being performed ~ the Rev.
C. A. Freed, D. D., with only the
family and few intimate friends of
the bride being present.
The church was beautifully decor
ated, the altar banked with ferns and
palms against white background,
over which the graceful Southern
smilax formed delicate tracery and
was lighted br thedral candles.
At the appo.nsed hour Miss Janet
Freed sang, in her most charming
manner, Heart of Gold," and 'For
You Alone" accompanied on the Or
gan by Mrs E. B. Settler.
As the strains of Mendelssohn's
wedding march were heard, the bride
entered on the arm of the groom.
The Venetian Love Song was softly
played during the service, which was
beautiful in it's simplicity and SOL
emnity. The impressive double ring
ceremony was used.
The bride was never more striking
" beautiful than in her wedding gown
of white duchess satin and cream lace
Win court train. Her veil, mist OF
tulle, fell to the length Of the train
and was arranged at the head with
Juliette cap effect and orange bios
SONS. She carried shower bouquet
of bride roses and lilies of the valley.
Immediately after the ceremony
reception was given at the home OF
the bride, long noted for the warmth
and charm of its hospitality,
The living room, library and parlor
were beautifully decorated in chry-
santhemums and autumn foliage.
The dining room had as It's center
decoration, the brides table with
white tulle and wedding bells falling
from the chandeliers and the cluny
cover sprinkled with flowers.
The wedding cake, in the center,
was cut by the bride. A profusion OF
chrysanthemums with the very effec-
tive lighting scheme Of green and
white candles, added greatly to the
beauty of the occasion.
The brides travelling suit was of
taupe duvetyn with smart hat OF
taupe and silver.
Mr.. and Mrs. Beach sailed for New
York and other eastern points.
