A hundred million people, yea
perhaps it's more or less, have fal-
len for the latest fad Of all We
all were kind of doubtful but we've
changed a bit, 1 guess, and one by
one we finally have to fall.
The radio has got us and it holds
us in its grip. We're pickln' things
at random from the air. We all are
mighty thankful when a friend hands
out a tip as to something that we
didn't know was there.
There are lots of little buttons that
you push or pull or turn, but a lot
of them are really never used. We
think we've done the main thing
when we get the tubes to burn and
with other little angles we're con
fused
Every night we get a station that
we haven't had before; then we
switch before the numbers half way
through. And then there comes a
rasping from another stations score
but we never know exactly who is
who.
Yep. the radio has got us; we have
fallen with a crash, and the craze
that's hit is really one that's rare.
We are satisfied and happy, even
though we're getting trash, just as
long as we get something from the
air.

- of distinguished son. It is
the seventy-ffth anniversary of the
birth of James Whitcomb Riley.
But this day is something more
than his birthday.
For today we not only remember
the man. but we give practical proof
that we have not forgotten those
things he loved and of which he
sang.
From him we learned that the
pleasures, joys and sorrows of child
hood receive more attention from
the angels than the rise or fall of
nations. From him We learned that
The freckled. barefoot boys, with
stubbed toes, are more imposing fig
ures in the eternal scheme of things
than are the mighty ones of earth
in all their SNOWY trappings.
He taught US that We owe a debt
to childhood. That we owe it love,
happiness and freedom from pain
and suffering.
Today we dedicate the Riley Hos
pitaI for Crippled Children. There.
in years to come, We will discharge
part of the debt we owe to the child.

And James Whitcomb Riley is
glad. For the debt has run long

Science

A scientific expedition is again
working on the troglodytes of Cap
padocia.
The term troglodyte is Greek and
means a person who lives in a hole.
The greatest number Of their dwell
|ings, followed out in cliffs and vol
canic cones that rise sharply from
the ground, are to be found in Asia
Minor. The modern troglodytes still
retain toward outsiders an attitude
of mind similar to that of the peo-
pie of the stone age, whom every
man was the enemy of every one
else and human society had not yet
been established. In fact, these
cones and caves that cluster around
an ancient and extinct volcano are
a connecting link between modern
and primitive man, and the troglo-
dytes of today, by isolating~ them
selves, carry out the ancient, idea
of enmity to the rest Of the world.
Modern jewellers in these dens
have done considerable work in
improving their abodes, but they are
still inhospitable and demand they
be let alone. One type living in
caves, high UP in the walls of a cliff,
reaches it's dwellings by climbing
long poles which are then drawn up.
1t Is believed that the. aged and in
firm are killed.

~l Hi activities of members of
Horsethief Detective Asso-
citation, in Marion County,
have been investigated. An order,
revoking the constabulary powers Of
these sleuths, is before the county
commissioners for approval.
It is claimed that there are nearly
500 of these detectives" in the city.
Each empowered to make a nuisance
of himself-like any regular consta-
BILE. And many exercise that power.
An Indianapolis horse should feel
secure. All the equines in the city
could parade at one time with a
full platoon Of horsethief ''detec-
tives" to escort each animal.
Years ago the law under which
these associations are formed was
needed in the State. Perhaps in
rural districts there's still some need
for the organizations.
But not in indianapolis. The theft
of a horse occurs in this city about
as frequently as the theft of the
Monument. And a Horsethief De
tective Association is no more use
full than a lusty case of the itch.
If an ordinary constable, clothed
in his soiled panoply of legality, Is a
sour joke, then an Indianapolis.
horsethief detective''-with con-
stabulary powers-is a nightmare.
The horse has gone to the glue
factory-there' the place for the
antiquated association law and the
detectives.

fri HERE was an old-fashioned
music program at Central
- library last night.
The soft-toned harmony of harp,
melodeon and other instruments of
long ago, f1oated on the air. And
old-fashioned dances were executed
in costumes appropriate to the Pc
riod.
There is a quality about the old
music, and the old instruments, that
touches a responsive cord in the
breasts Of listeners. 1t speaks of
the contentment of a winters eve
ming before the Pickering blaze Of
an open fire. 1t is soothing, fra
grant, and reminiscent of the more
unhurried days that are gone.
The modern syncopated bedlan
may serve for present day dancing.
A Jazz orchestra in a restaurant
may arouse the barbaric in man and
move him to tear into a sodden meal
with more gusto and savagery than
he would otherwise.
But the soul Graves the smooth.
sweet, haunting melodies of the pest.
The old-fashioned- nlesS< program
was a treat to music Tovers. They
showed their appreciation by pack
ing the big library to the doors, and
overlooking on the steps.
For indianapolis loves music.
There must have been almost as
many there last night as stood be-
fore one downtown score board yes

ress of the third game of the world

La Toilette

BY WILLIAM ALLEN WHITE,
Republican, of the Emporia Ga
zette, One of Americas
Foremost Editors.
A big, important man in this
nation is Robert M. La Toilette.
The historian who writes the
story of the last quarter Of
century will have to go to La
Toilette and his work many
times if history tells the truth
about the major currents of
American life in this era.
Always La Toilette has been
brave. His is not the courage
of the man who tears down, but
the courageous wisdom of the
builder.
He has seen far, and he has
gone far; sometimes he has
moved ahead of the army with
the pioneers and scouts, and
the sharpshooters have winged
him. But sooner or later the
main body of the troops, the
militant people of America,
have come up with the La Fol
lette position.
No other living American has
impressed himself so deeply
upon the life and thought and
institutions of America as has
Robert NJ. La Toilette.

They passed the magnificent paint
ing America" by Reni-Mel-owned

interest. A display Of caskets made
them pause and SILVER slightly.
But when they reached a booth
where free samples Of cheese and
crackers were being distributed the
climax Of the exposition was reached
for them. They fought big-eyed and
breathless for places at the counter.
Their aggressive craving for some
thing to eat asserted itself.
Naturally. For a human being

surrounded by mass of throbbing
appetite.
Victuals sway human destiny. A
good digestion is the pride and Joy
Of its owner. And it promotes hap

1t adds to the prosperity of the ma
ton and the peace of the world.
A well fed man seldom starts

was a dyspeptic, and ten million men
died because Of his stomachache.
