The real tropics are more luxur-

Won in the reality depends on how
high the necessary price seems to
your particular temperament.
The price" question is not
money. Tropic jungles steam
with humid heat and swarm with
insect pests.
They lack most or all the con-
veniences of civilization, and their
picturesque inhabitants are often
ignorant Of sanitary and other
decencies.
Not all the odors of the spice
islands are perfumes. If you can
overlook these features, the far
tropics are the most beautiful and
interesting part of the world.
But Hawaii, fortunately, exacts
none of these prices. 1t is civil

If YOU have just come from the
Orient, it seems very American;

the cannibal islands, it seems a"-

a matter Of contrast.

So far as the Democrats are concerned,
only those who always are particularly enthu-

give q nickel for their chances of success It
is becoming more apparent every day that
they can count little or no Republican support
So If the Republicans are successful, the
next administration will be put across by the

When you come in January out

California, the contrast is over
whelming. But to the resident,
California is then, not at its best,
but at it's worst.
Merely, the difference between
its best and its worst is so much
less than that Of the colder zones.
But if you would sec California
at its absolute best, come when the
east is also at its best, or, perhaps
a month earlier.
The contrast is not so great, for
the east is blooming and beautiful
then, too; but, emitting compari-

supreme.

True to Form

T7HE Indianapolis political situation IN adj
i vance of the fall mayoralty campaign
is shaping itself true to form. In other words,
all the various Republican factions are getting
together and the Democrats are simply drift
ing along hoping for the best and expecting
the worst.
For the first time in many years, factlonal
lines seem to be disappearing among Indian
apolis Republicans and perfect harmony is IN
prospect. fractional differences heretofore al
ways did subside more or less during cam
paign, but now it appears they are about to
be wiped out entirely.
11 SHORT review Of Indianapolis political
~ history should not be amiss in this con-
nection.
The factional row started with the split be-
tween Jewett and Shank. The bitterest kind
90 feeling prevailed Then Shank was sue
6esful and the Jewett-Lemcke faction was out
Fifn the cold.
A short time afterward third faction, the
Coffin organization began to make itself felt.
1t grew in power until it became necessary for
Jewett and Shank to get together as matter
annalgamation was admitted publicly, The
Times predicted joining of the Shank and
Jewett elements and the idea was pooh
poohed by the politicians-but it happened.
However, the combined forces of Shank
and Jewett were not sufficiently strong to de-
feat the Coffin faction, aided and Allotted by
Governor jackson and D. G. Stephenson, and
the newest organization succeeded in nomi-
mating it's candidate for mayor, John L. Duvall
XVII nth the nomination of Duvall, there is
wv gradually coming about cessation of
factional strife. The boys evidently have dis
covered that quarrels among themselves fail
to pay. Under a fractional system only the
chosen few have chance at the pie counter.
Under the unified party system everybody has
more or less equal chance to grab something
Now that all the boys are getting to-
gether, we have the spectacle Of George v.
Coffin, supreme high mucky muck of the Re-
publican party in these parts, not only infu-
3encing appointments in the Statehouse, but
hob-nobbing on intimate terms with the crowd
at city hall.
Mayor Shank, who was so strongly "oA"
Duvall and Coffin short time ago, is taking up
questions that will affect the next administra-
tion with the Republican candidate. There ap
pears to be perfect understanding, despite
recent opposition to Shank among Duva!l s
friends.
FRI HERE is some feeling that Coffin, as su-
i preme boss, will not be very popular with
the rank and file of Republican voters This has

The infant death rate among the farm dweller is everywhere higher than that of the towns, and the average lifetime of the farm worker is three years less than that of the urban in- habitant.

DENNY STARS IN
 BIG AUTO FILM
 AT THE LIBERTY
FILM FAVORITE IN "SPEEDY" ROMANCE WITH LAURA
 LA PLANTE.

Probably every picture-goes has experienced this feeling, that-"here's
 great picture and it's working ur to something-something big and tre
 mendous and powerful; some smash
 ing climax that will lift me off my
 seat, t,"-then had his illusions shat
 his hopes.
 There's little more disheartening
 It's like a splendid dinner topped
 off with burnt applesauce. Nothing is ever more necessary to end a pie order with the preceding elements of the story.
 So it's refreshing beyond words to see film that carries you along with rollicking action, suggestive at all times that this is good, but there's better coming, teasing you, holding you, promising you that all the entertainment features are mere ly love taps, that soon you're to be knocked dizzy with the real thing and then makes good.
 Sporting Youth" which opens at the Liberty tonight does just this. Somebody deserves a great deal of credit. It was made as a Universal Jewel production by Harry A. Pol lard with Riginald Denny in the starring role. Added to this story was written by Byron Morgan, whose tales of the roaring road, published in the Saturday Evening Post, are still the subject of enthusiastic con- versation.
 Perhaps it's a combination of these somebodies that makes the thing good. The story is good, the direction is good and thestar is good. But the thing that carries the picture of the channels of merely good pictures is its terrific speed. There's road race that dazzles you, leaves you breathless and mop ping your brow with the excitement, because of the dash of the thing, all in harmony with the delightfully."- keen rein of romance that threads turnout.
 Sharing almost equal honors with the star is the work of Laura La Plante, his pretty little leading wom- an. She has big part and she has a spirit of freshness, a youthful charm which balances we'll the dash ing, dynamic personality of Denny,

WANTS TO SEE
BASEBALL FANS
Manager Ferrell Issues Call
for Meeting Tuesday
Night

Manager Penny Ferrell is sending
out call for baseball meeting to
be held in the Commercial club rooms
next Tuesday night, and he wants
everyone who is even slightly inter-
ested in the national pastime to be
present.
He is going to talk over the pros
poets for a local team and wants sug-
gestions, criticisms and just talk.
His principal worry is over the condi-
tion of the local diamond. He says he
has three complete batteries in shape
and in addition, mentions such play
ers as Warde Johnson, Evett, and
others and says he knows where he
can get several more good players.
The prospects are bright, according
to him, for good team this year.
So, you fellows who like to see a
good game of base ball: come out
to the meeting Tuesday night, and
hear "Penny" tell how he not only
failed to ask for the usual donation,
but actually paid few old debts as
well.
