BEAUTY, UTILITY
INCORPORATED IN
CHURCHES TODAY

Considerable attention is being
given in these days to combination
of beauty and utility in architecture,
as well as adaptation of design to
meet certain demands of locality and
character, according to Fermor S.
Cannon, architect, whose offices are
located at 81 Virginia Ave.
The modern trend in architecture
is toward unitarian designs in
churches, Cannon pointed out, but
grace of line is being used effectively
to soften brick and cement as ma
terials.
''In the new churches we find
there is a marked desire to build for
service in a broader way than was
evident a half century ago." he said.
1.-THE modern church is being made
more of gathering place for old
and young, and educational facih-
ties are being considered as of pri-
mary significance. The old-style au-
ditorium, which provided the only
place in which Sunday schools could
be conducted. is being augmented by
the consideration of a place to play
as well as a place to learn. Leaders
of church life are coming to realize
the value of education and recreation
along with a place for worship"
Cannon is the architect for the
Woodruff Place Baptist Church,
which will be constructed this late
summer, fall and next winter, ready
for occupancy late next spring. The
new church will be OF italian Gothic
design, built of brick with plenty of
color and ample facilities for the
worship, educational and recreational
phases of modern church life.
He has designed a number Of other
churches in the city and has come
to be considered as one of the lead
ing church architects of Indianapo-
lis.

MILLION DOLLARS
DIDN'T BUY MUCH
FOR PENN STATE
Ware in Congress Fourteen
Years, but House Mem
bers Didn't Know 1t.
Times Washington Bureau,
1922 Ne1o York Avenue


WASHINGTON, June IT, What
did Pennsylvania two million dol
lars buy in the way Of United
States Senator?
It bought a short, fat, red faced
man, dressed in a black business
suit, .hard-boiled shirt, loud purple
tie and a derby hat. A man who
parts his hair in the middle and who
wears big diamond rings and dia
mond-studded cuff links. A man who
looks like a typical big eastern city
ward politician.
That's William S. Ware. Ware has
been in the House of Representatives
for fourteen years. Yet when he
won the Republican nomination for
the Pennsylvania senatorship the
other day, the House members asked
one another, in amazement, What
does this man Ware look like, any
how?"
!, Inconspicuous
In spite of his fourteen years in
the House-and his purple tie-Vare
has been inconspicuous. He has
been On one of the important com
/ nittees-appropria what
ever work he has done there has not
been spectacular or outstanding. He
has spent a good deal Of his time
back in Philadelphia, where for two
years he has been the big Repuo-
lican boss.
He inherited the boss-ship when
his brother Ed died. The three
vares-George, Ed and Bill-were
one Of the political factions in Penn
sylvania, which tried to get control
! of things after Boies Penrose died
The Mellon interests formed anoth-
er faction interested in this same po-
litical control. Today this control
seems to be split up among them all,
for W. L. Mellon is now Republic
an State chairman.
Likes His Platform
Ware likes to talk about his plat
form, which he says consists of
modification of the Volstead act to
a point where it will be honestly
misunderstanding" out radical vets
and HISTORICALLY drys" and giving
every American his rights.
Ware was born on a farm on Phila-
delphia's South Side called the
Meek" He has worked his way up
from the days when he used to sell
vegetables, run errands for Wanna
makers, and later when he and his
brothers got contracts for cleaning
the streets of Philadelphia, grad
uating eventually into ward and
later into city politics.

Two MILLION FOR
SENATOR CHEAP
IN PENNSYLV WANNA
Control of Quaker State
Politics Richest Plum in
United States.
Times Washington Bureau,


WASHINGTON, June 17.-Why
do they fly so high, these Pennsyl
vania political angels.
Why are they willing to spend two
million dollars to name a United
States Senator? What do they ex-
pect to get in return.
The answer is merely that control
of the Pennsylvania politics is the
greatest plum in these United States.
There is nothing else like it.
Seventh Heaven
Not only does such control carry
with it a gigantic spoils system, but
it carries also jurisdiction over the
greatest State industrial organiza-
ton in the country In spoils 1t is
a. seventh heaven. The State expedi-
ture is annually more than $780,
oo0, 900. There are 100000 political
jobs and civil service is a thing I'M
known.
Industrially, Pennsylvania is the
greatest kingdom of financial barons

annual manufactured product, ac-
cording to the 1923 census is valued
at 1881 ,687,533. New York State,
with a $500, 63S, 400 annual product,
is more important industrially, but
New York industry is centered IN
one city while Pennsylvania in
dustry touches every nook and
cAanny of the State.
Right Senators Needed
For these Pennsylvania barons
there is nothing so important as
having the right kind of men in the
United States Senate. There must
be men there capable of and willing
to lead the fight TO retain the high
protective tariff-the 40 per cent
duty on aluminium for example.
There must be men there able to
fight taxation Of industry and able
to influence the: United States
Treasury in tax refund cases.
The right kind of Senator can re-
turn campaign expenditures to the
spenders a dozen times over, and he
can do it legally.

SAYS ELECTRICAL
REFRIGERATION IS
GAINING IN FAVOR
F. {. Trosky, Merchant
Plumber, Kept Busy With
installations.

Electrical refrigeration is becom-
ing popular in many of the finer In
dianapolis homes, according to E. E.
Trosky, merchant plumber, 2949
Central Ave, one Of the best known
plumbing merchants of the city.
Trosky insists that modern house
wives are demanding more and more
in devices that tighten ,housework
and the introduction of electrical re-
frigeration. he said had proven very
attractive to them.
During the past few weeks, Tros-
ky has been busy installing new
Universal coolers. This electrical re-
frigerator is one of the best on the
market, he says The cooler can be
installed in old ice boxes or refriger-
ators with proper repairs made in
insulation walls, as well as in new
boxes.
The Universal cooler has the re-
frigeration unit installed in the bot
tom of the cabinet with brine tank
on top to be used in freezing des-
serts and other food products. The
cooler maintains low temperature
of varying degrees, and has proved
very satisfactory in home refriger-
alton service, Trosky said.
Because Of the installation costs,
we recommend that persons install
new coolers instead of equipping
their old ice boxes with cooling
coils" he stated.
The advance of the summer season
is expected to increase the number
of refrigeration systems installed by
the firm. although a corps of work
men is being kept busy at the pres
ent, Trosky said.
