and community consciousness of being dormant
and asleep. They are unacquainted with the city
and it's history, with the glorious achievements
of the past, and the present potency of public
opinion in Richmond.
Richmond is a good city. 1t has no reason to
blush for shame or to assume sackcloth and ashes
as an indication of it's remorse and regret over
its sins. The public sentiment of this city is
pure and noble.
Our mothers, wives and daughters walk our
streets by day and night without fear of insult
or molestation. Our boys and girls are not
hurrying along the primrose path to perdition,
but, guided and sustained by their parents, are
following the straight road of moral excellence
to future attainment of high aims and purposes.
Our fathers and mothers, as whole, look
upon the training of their children their high
est function, as one of the prime duties of the
home. The best proof Of this is the high moral
conduct of the children themselves. There are
exceptions, of course, but these are so few in
comparison with the good children that it is
ridiculous to draw the general inference that a
very large percentage of our boys and girls are
immoral.

seek STERILIZATION
OF BUILDING COSTS

CHICAGO. Jan. 6.-National leaders
OF the Lumber Industry are meeting
here to consider ways and means of
stabilizing building costs and to en-
courage building construction pro-
iects.
The conference was called by Ed
ward Hines, Of the Hines Lumber
company, but illness will prevent his
attending.
Lumber manufacture is the second
largest industry in the country Mr..
Hines said in issuing his call, "but it
is practically at a standstill. 1t is
time to take an inventory of the
facts"
Must Build.
Building must go on il lumber is
to be sold. We are five years behind
in building. Building must be stabiliz-
ed. Lumber prices are below cost of
production just now. They were car
ried away beyond all reason of spec

time back. The Stock market was
away up some time back Now it's
down. People are buying stocks now
because they get their moneys
worth"
Mr.. Hines said the lumber dealers
should take stock OF their business.

According to Mr.. Hines. after &C.

six-shooter on the other. HE was in

"Dobhinston-kind Of goody, goody

Yes, that's the man."

Keep the Public Service Commission

The movement to kill the Indiana public serv-
ice commission should be throttled by public
opinion before it's hackers succeed in getting a
bill introduced in the general assembly.
Enemies of the commission have been zeal
|ously sowing the seeds of distrust throughout
the state in the hope of arousing enough senti-
ment to demand the repeal of the law which gives
that body power to handle the public service
matters of Indiana
The law was enacted in 1913 after a bitter
fight The commission has demonstrated in the
last seven years it's right to existence, and its
rulings have squared with both justice and good
policy.
The commission is a body that hears petitions
of both the utility companies and the municipali-
ties in which the companies operate. 1t gives
both sides abundant opportunity to present argu-
ments for their petitions and then hands down
rulings that so far have tended to serve the best
interests of the public and to conserve the utii-
ties.
Indiana is infinitely better off with public
service commission than it would be under the
old regime, in which the utilities operated under
franchises. It has not been so long ago we can
not remember the troubles which Indiana munich
palities had with the utility companies under the
franchise system.
To abolish the commission or to impair its
present usefulness by weakening the present law
would be rank foolishness, for which the citizens
of Indiana would soon pay in more ways than
one. The record of the commission is an excel
lent one No charges of sinister nature have
ever been preferred against it. It has sought to
execute the purpose for which it was called into
being To eliminate it now, when utilities of all
kinds are in the throes of readjustment, would
be serious blow to the people of Indiana.

The Bright Side of Richmond

Consider today the cheerful side Of conditions
in Richmond
Every city, like an individual, has its troubles
and worries, to which Richmond is no exception.
It. too has it's faults, weaknesses and shortcom-
ings to which it confesses cheerfully, and withal
neekly and humbly.
y Few individuals are habitually so base and
corrupt that they must be segregated from soci-
ETY. and confined in prison. The good in the vast
majority of men far outweighs the bad. If it
were not so, every second man you met on the
street would be either murder, thief, gangster
or crook.
So also with cities. Seldom is municipality,
judged as whole, so stepped in vice and Grimm
atty that all it's good qualities are debased and
all it's nobler instincts and aspirations debouched.
Richmond has always been a good place in
which to live. It's past history is one of the
cleanest contributions in the annals of Indiana.
Its present condition is no disgrace to the found
ers Of the community or to the people who have
been glad to reside here for many years and to
rear their families in it's wholesome environment.
!. It is distinctly home city-a place where
good men and women are rearing their boys and
girls to be moral and outstanding young men and
women. The city congratulates itself on the high
qualities of the fathers and mothers who reside
here and on the young men and women, who are
a credit to the community where they are matur-
ing into its citizenship. '.,.......
II Our young men and women-the product Of
our homes, schools and municipal environment
are in demand in the state and elsewhere for
their excellent character and ability to do things.
Scores of them have been called to high positions
elsewhere; scores of them occupy the highest
peak of their vocations; hundreds of them re-
fleet daily in other cities the good training which
they received in their home town. They were
taught the principles Of right thinking and right
doing in Richmond.
Richmond has always had public spirit that
responded with great things when it was invoked
There are men and women still living in this
community who know what the community did
in the Civil war period. Hundreds are still living
who know what was done to lay the foundation
for our religious, moral, social musical, artistic,
educational, industrial, commercial and financial
life. Thousands know our record in the World
war Richmond, in proportion to it's size and
wealth, stood second to no city in Indiana when
the call went out to the sons and daughters of
democracy to rally to the support of civilization.
Some have tried to accuse this public spirit
