LOCKERbIE STREET
NOW Seems Doomed
Was Made Famous by Riley'S
Poetry

indianapolis. Ind, Sept. Up -
Such a dear little street it is nestled
From the noise of the city and the
heat of the day."
But the Lockerbie street James
Whitcomb Riley wrote about thirty
nine years ago no longer is nestled
away from the noise of the city.
And,
The cool shady coverts of whisper
ing trees,
with their leaves lifted up to shake
hands with the breeze"
have disappeared as the city's resi-
Dental line receded leaving Locker
bic street within dilapidated down
town district.
Now Cheap Boarding Houses
To Riley the Lockerbie street
residence of Major and Mrs. Charles
L. Holstein was home for more than
thirty years. There he wrote his
"Afterwhiles," Songs of Childhood"
and others. And there in 1916 he
died. But before Riley died the
street wa. being given over TO cheap
rooming houses, and the oak and

Child THEATER IS
TRAINING SCHOOL
Tends to Develop Creative Art
in Youth

Chicago, Sept. 8 LP>-A juvenile
melting pot in which children of all
nationalties, from the tenement to
the fashionable Gold Coast merge
in the interest of dramatics, the
/ Children's Civic theater of Chicago
| is now in its tenth season with
nearly 1000 children participating.
/ Every summer since 1916 this
children's theater has been main
tanned at the Municipal Pier audi
torium, leveling the social lines of
birth and wealth to unite Chicago's
children in the common interest of
art.
Develops Leadership
It is financed by the city council,
directed by Miss Bertha J.. lies and
permanent staff, sponsored by the
Drama league of Chicago, and aided
by the Civic Music association.
Sugar coated training" Miss lies
calls the work, for beneath the fun
/ the children have, the organization
| is intended to develop leadership.
creativeness, initiative, tolerance and
| teamwork.
Children Plan Programs
Most of the programs are suggest
| ed by the children, who also plan
the costumes and stage settings.
The season begins the first week in
Meetings are held three afternoons
each week, with the third afternoon
witnessing the production of pro-
grams prepared in the two previous
rehearsals.
While the programs are almost
entirely of children's operas, dane
| ing, short plays, and sketches, the
i theatre does not encourage dra-
MATES or the stage as a profession.
eff any of them become true
artists it will be from their own
/ love of art rather than any en-
enlargement from u.s." Miss lies
said.
Lesson for Mothers
Each season the children are
granted one night at the Ravinia
opera. and this year they presented
pageant of their own creation en-
titled "Our Chicago" depicting the
history of the city.
But there are lessons for mothers
as well.
There was a we'll dressed Amer
lean mother from an exclusive sec
ton talking with a foreign born
mother from less fortunate section.
while they watched their children
standing beside each other on the
stage as cymbal bearers in an
Arabian playlet.
Later the American mother turn
ed to a friend: "Why she's so in
teresting but ! almost was en-
barrassed-why she speaks five
languages and 7 have a terrible time

The Holstein home now is Riley

mementos of the poets occupancy
still remain. Time and the elements
have scared their marks across the
old. aristocratic, two-story brick

Lockerbie street.
The tourist seeking the Riley
home finds Lockerbie only block

neglected and now is rough and
broken. SCOT has stained every

main are a pathetic reminder to
those who knew Lockerbie street
when Riley immortalized 1t in
poetry.

Milk Bill ard Regulation Re-

Iayed in Committee.

Action on both the bill to license
chiropractors and to require names of
dealers to be plainly blown or stamped
on milk containers, was delayed again
yesterday before the judiciary sub
committee of the House District
Committee.
Two conflicting amendments to the
milk bottle bill were presented.
Representative Gilbert, Democrat,
Kentucky, who opposed the milk
bottle bill, stated emphatically that the
milk supply in the District is of
higher quality than anywhere he
knows of. He explained that the
District Health officer has an eX-
cellent system of investigation and
protection and that no other city
enjoys the protection that Washington
does in its milk supply. He declared,
however, that the effects of the pend

Pay Tribute to DIR Fowler.
Both Represe, tattves Bis nton and
Gilbert paid tribute to Hr. Fowler az
an excellent and very unsual health
officer Mr.. Gilbert said, however,
that DR.. Fowler had admitted to him
that the peidirg bill would not i'm
prove the olilE supply, and that In
acting upC n It the DiStrlct commlItee
would not Ue legis'ating for all the
people of TIE District, but for q group
of milk dealers.
Mr.. Blanton interrupted the hearing
to APPEAL to the big audience,
askirg Il there was farmer present
,lrgjaS the passage of the bill! There
was ~ response from the crowd.
Representative Houston, Republl-
car. Delaware, said that the dlstri-
bntSbn of milk cannot. be controlled
except by bill of this sort.
MIR. Blanton said ne was willing to
Vpte to make it a WorkhouSe offense
Tor any person to steal a milk bottle.
This statement was made when at
tOrneys for milk dealers told the COM
nittee that their interest in the leg
islation was TO prevent their bottles
being stolen and used for other pur-
poses and by other dealers.
On motion Of Mr.. Blanton, the milk
hill was laid on the table until the
next meeting.
Motion Meets Protest.
Mr.. B1anton moved that a favorable

as a matter of course, needs at

do the grand old forest trees call
for the skillful hands Of the

cred the storms for a century
show signs of decrepitude and
age. Branches have been torn
away by heavy winds, others
are dead and many more in the

away the dead wood and haul it

Much For Little

No automobile owner can in
vest a ten spot to better advant-
age than by buying a member
ship in the Newark Automobile
Club. The benefits and privi-
leges secured for this trifling
sum are worth many times the
cost.
The free telephone service
boxes approximately about a
mile apart may mean the saving
of a human life in cases of emer-
gency, and the acceptance of a
membership card as bail up to
the amount of 500 is a mighty
convenient arrangement. Anoth-
er commendable feature is the
free towage of your car for any
distance up to ten miles.

It's a Good Idea

The business district of New
ark, like the rest of the town, is
so miserably illuminated at
night, especially after the lights
in the merchants windows are
turned out at a comparatively
early hour, that a pedestrian is
veritably in need of a lantern to
safely navigate the streets.
TO in some measure overcome
this condition of affairs and
brighten up things generally the
Ohio Power Company is suggest
ing that business houses keep
their lights going at least until
midnight, and is making flat
rate for such a purpose.
This is a splendid idea, and
the favorable concurrence of
business men generally indicates
that in a short time the public
square will not be as "black as
your hat" when the curfew
sounds to send the kids home
ward bound.
The merchants are also figur-
ing on a scheme to arrange for
a plan to have the streets clean
ed and put in good shape every
night after the closing hours so
as to have a "spotless town" as
pect next morning.

Set En- Out

Lots of people who are stand
ing around on the corners killing

Why not give 'em a fresh coat
of paint and set 'em out where
they will perform the duties for
which they were intended?
