Social Service Bureau OF
City Hospital Faces Prob
lem in Care of Aged.

Care Of "old age dependents" is
the biggest problem of Indianapolis
city hospital social service depart
ment, according to Miss Margaret
Bloor, director.
"The most pathetic cases we have
are those of aged parents who have
spent all they have to raise a family
and now have no place to lay their
head. Frequently we find children
who are guilty of ingratitude," said
Miss Bloor.
ut is particularly difficult to care
for aged persons who are chronic
patients and not ill enough to keep
at the hospital because there is no
provision for them. The only place
we can send them is to the county
poor farm.
Relatives Often Indifferent
@Often we find relatives OF prom
inent persons who are able to care
for them but for one reason or an
other shift from under the burden, y
Miss Bloor said.
In many cases treated at the
municipal hospital, the surgeons
knife or the physicians prescription
is not all that is required. After the
patient is discharged it is necessary
for the social service department to
follow the cases and see that they
get proper attention until entirely
recovered.
The department finds homes for
destitute persons and arranges the
necessary care for homeless patients.
Non-state dependents are deported
after their discharge from the in
stitution.
Aid Crippled Children
Case workers look after crippled
children who need a brace or some
other corrective device. Funds for
orthopedic cases are scarce, the
James E. Roberts trust fund being
exhausted this year in May.
The burden of finding someone to
give blood" for cases requiring
blood TRANSMISSION falls on Miss Bloor
when there are no relatives avail
able.
Frequently relatives blood is not
compatible and it is necessary to
find someone to sell" their blood.
Much of the blood used at city hos
pital Is secured from medical stu
dents who sell their blood for $50 a
pint. Funds must be raised in cases
where relatives are unable to bear
expense.
st. Margaret's Guild, Stansfield

Servants are up in arms over the
newfangled machine which is cheat

Unlike Arabia, Turkey never had

always chosen its cooks and maids
with an eye to their storytelling
propensition. Before the advent of
radio the one amusement of Ana
tolian families was to gather in the
evening round n brazier. The cook
proudly conscious that she was the
center Of all eyes, told ancient tales
Of dime and peris. sultans and pash-

Paris of Old Is
Shown In Film

France in the days Of King Louis
Kin days when the threat of Bur-

IKE q cloud Of despair-and when the
mob Of beggars, fools and thieves
was at its height Of color and force
IS pictured in "The Beloved Fool"
which opened at the Dittmann theater
here Sunday for a three-day run.
Francois Villon, called the first
great poet Of Paris, murderer, thief,
rogue, and lover, is the central fig
ure in the picture, with John Barry
lore playing the part.
Viilon, elected king OF the fools
on Fools Day in Paris, plays q promi-
nent part in the rapid sweep Of
events which leads to the downfall Of
the Duke Of Burgundy, with a love
plot spliced into the action, and
plenty Of ~buffoonery carried on by
Villon and his beggar friends.
Some splendid scenes OF what Paris
and her citizens in the Fifteenth cen
fury may have looked like are shown
IN the picture, with enough action
and suspense to hold the interest
throughout.

Picture Follows
Biblical Theme

Taking for its theme the exodus
Of the Israelites from Egypt the
aMoon OF Israel" being shown nc the
Queen theater. IN a close account
OF the Bible story as followed BY the
picture. A love story is woven
Through the plot in which Merapi, an
IsraeIite maiden, and Seti, prince az
Egypt, become lovers despite their
widely different stations in life.
Maria Corda takes the part Of the
maid and acts q part that Is par
ticularIy hard. Arlette Marchal, the
grand beauty Of the Egyptian court,
does her part well as the scornful
wife.
Perhaps the most impressive figure
in the picture is ragged Moses, Henry
Mar, striding through his subdued
people. keeping up their courage and
performing miracles until his loved
