School Needs Will Be Met
INDIANAPOLIS will have more schools.

INDIANAPOLIS will have more schools.
Il This is assured whether those opposing the movement real
lie the fact or not. When a group of such representative citizens as
called on the school board at its last meeting get behind a move
ment and express the degree of determination displayed at the
meeting of Tuesday night the success of the movement is assured.
The citizens who called on the school board were there pri-
but they made it plain they appreciate that the school problem in
Indianapolis is bigger than the problem of providing a new north
side high school They made it plain that they are aware of
the necessity for adequate facilities for younger pupils and they
pledged their support to a movement to obtain these needed ia
ciities. In this they can not be too highly commended.
Day after day the Times has set forth the necessity for bet
ter school facilities. Day after day facts concerning the deplor-
able school situation in Indianapolis have been given to the public.
The effort is bearing fruit. The citizenship of indianapolis has
been aroused.
The first evidence that an aroused citizenship is accomplish
ing results was revealed at the meeting of the building and
grounds committee of the school board last night, when architects
were named to draw plans for eight new buildings and a superin-
tendent of construction was employed. This move on the part Of
the school board should meet with the approval of every citizen
of Indianapolis. 1t is a progressive step forward in the cause Of
education and of humanity.
The fight. however, is not ended. 1t will not be ended until
the buildings are completed and classes installed in them. There
are many things to be done between the employment of an archi-
tect and the opening of a new school. During this period every
citizen interested in the children of indianapolis should lend his
assistance.
The Times intends to continue to do its part in obtaining bet
ter school facilities. The first battle has been won. If the fight
progresses as it has been progresingth success of the entire cam.
paign is inevitable.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Oct. 12.-
Laws pertaining to water rights are
complex, devious and contradictory.
Yet Rome G.. Brown. lecturer on the
law Of water rights In the University

practically can be reduced to seven
teen words:
"All things whatsoever We would

Yes. the Golden Rule; Mark 7:12.
Under the laws in some States to-
day." says Brown, Surface water as
a common enemy" can be driven off
rs a burglar, without regard to how
they are gotten rid of or scattered.
This is in line with the old common
law rule.
Subsequent decisions show changes
in the old rule in many States; the
recognition of the principle of the
Golden Rule. This, in effect,
the preservation Of the right to dis.
pose of surface waters. but the meth

Failures of This Year

N nine months of this year more than 1900 business firms

we realize that during the same nine months at least 100000
companies went right along without failing.
The liabilities of the failures exceeded their assets by about
100000. Spread evenly over the whole population of the coun-
try, this is less than 50 for each of us.
Most folks look at hard times through a high-powered magni-
flying glass. The lone ship that pershes at sea gets the attention.
No one notices the vast fleet that rides the gale safely.

than it is this week, so, instead OF
stacking up marks in the bank. Ger

Money lending, he said, is no long

machinery to turn out goods for for

money. in foreign exchange, is being
