The factional political fight at
indianapolis with the ousting of
a Republican mayor and the in
stalling of a Democrat seems to
have settled down along partisan
lines. What reaction that may
have on political fortunes in In
dianapolis and the State at large
remains for the future to develop.
One factor, however, is certain.
AS matters now stand the State
capital municipal control of the
indianapolis political machine is
transferred to the hands of the
Democrats. Mayor L. Ert Slack
has made that clear in his APP
pointments. But as for the po-
litical future of Mayor Slack, if
indianapolis politics runs true to
fC.l.4, he may have to be content
with his present commanding po-
sition as the head Of the newest

Age Is Poor Remedy

1t has become the fashion to
excuse crime in this country on
the ground that we are a mixed
and pioneer people; that we have
not settled down to that orderly
manner of life which goes with
older communities.
One hundred, years ago the
United States did not have one
half as many prisoners in proper
ton to her population as she has
today.
Murder, as reported by our
larger cities, increased from a rate
of "a to each 100000 people in
1900 to a rate of Ill in 1925.
Apparently, we grow worse, and
not better, as we grow older.

Those addicted to football with
out any great technical knowl-
edge of the game are raising the
question: What's the matter with
Notre Dame? After q splendid
start in the fashion of the famous
Four Horsemen Of 1924 the Rock
nemen struck a snag in Minnesota
and came a cropper against the
Army. To the football layman
this is equivalent to a total col
lapse.
Notre Dame suffers the misfor-
tune these days of every team it
meets preparing carefully to de-
feat the South Bend team; it has
no easy spots because there is a
welcoming committee Of eleven or
more determined and we'll
coached players at every field to
meet Rockne's boys.
Notre Dame is victim Of a
heavy schedule, which calls for
hard games Saturday after Satur-
day. No team in the country has
been called on to meet teams of
the calibre of Minnesota and the
Army On successive Saturdays. In
the street vernacular, the South
Bend team bit off more than 1t
could chew. To keep his team at
a high pitch every Saturday is
the hardest job Rockne has. for
although the bumps and bruises
of hard games hurt, they do not
affect the eleven's playing like its
mental condition.
The victory pitch is hard to
maintain for a schedule of ten
games, whether the team con-
cerned is Wheatfield Corners or
the best in the land.

East Side youths today appealed
to Mr.. Fixit to save an east side
gang" from being. broken up by po-
lice.
Dear Mr.. Fixit;
wonder if you can put your
magnetic power to use in helping
to solve a question which confronts
youths of the east side.
1t so happened that I was stand
ing on the corner Of State Ave
and Washington ST. last night with
a group of boys and a police officer
strolled up; took our names; in
quired as to our means Of livelihood
and then told us we must migrate
from that vicinity.
We strolled down to Oriental St
We had hardly been there two min
utes when we were again ordered
to depart by an officer.
Now, Mr.. Fixit, we are too young
to be able to hang out in poolrooms
and we are compelled by law to
stay off the corners. Just what
are we supposed to do with our
selves. Hoping you can remove us
from the exile. We remain
EAST SIDE YOUTHS.
Mr.. Fixit is sorry that he can
not help your situation. Person.
ally, he feels that police are right
in preventing young men from
congregating on street corners at
night. Crime often breeds in
such gangs" police say, and they
are trying to stop the wave Of
banditry. Mr.. Fixit would suggest
you try spending some evening at
home or at the branch library if
your time is not required to pre-
pare school lessons.
Dear Mr.. Fixit: I live on the
Kessler Blvd. and own several
pieces of property there, and for the
past three years have been paying
city taxes.
We have no sewer, gas or water,
Have to have garbage hauled and
pay for it. Nevertheless, we are
compelled to pay city taxes and live
on a rural route without being &C
corded any city accommodations.
Would like to know who causes all
this convenience and what can be
done about it.
Any Influence you may have with
the proper authorities will be great
ly appreciated.

they are right.
In nine cases out of ten he does
not know what the crime sit

The chances are that we have

that we have busted ourselves

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Mrs. H. Y. II. writes MY baby, 3 u
months old, weighs nearly 10 pounds
He is well, fat and happy and never
has a touch of collie. One thing wor-
ries me, his hands are almost always
cold and at times both hands and feet
look dark purple and splotchy.
rs this a symptom of poor circula.
ton, and If so, what can l do to cor.
rect It? He is breast fed and gets
orange juice.
My oldest boy, 21a years old, weighs
81 pounds and seems perfectly we'll
and rosy checked. But 1t is almost inn
possible to get him to eat. He only
pecks at the food 1 prepare for him. ]
will greatly appreciate your advice on
these two questions.
Answer-Usually, when a child's
hands and feet are cold it is indicative
of too few clothes. Children have so
little exercise that they chill easily.
Perhaps you are warm blooded and
you have your house too cold for the
little chap.
If there Is really anything wrong
with his circulation, massage daily
would help some, / am sure. But l
have an idea 1t is Just too few clothes.
otherwise his whole body would look
colorlesS and blue.
The older boy is such a fine weight
1t is hardly possible to think that he
Is not being well fed. If you will cut
down on the amount of milk he drinks
and use the milk in cooking his food,
he will have better appetite for food.
It often happens that children of
this age, getting quart Of milk daily,
are so well satisfied that they refuse
sufficient solid food. Using some of
their milk on their cereals and as
custard will give them the benefit of
it still. and not spoil their appetites.
Mrs. T. G. O.: 1t Is wiser. unless or
dered by the doctor. not to continue
the use of cough medicines for a long
time. Most of them contain a sedative
that should not be continued over
long periods and they are usually very
upsetting to the stomach. Giving
cough medicines every time the baby
begins to hack at night is a bad habit
Sometimes these annoying coughs
can be stopped by wrapping the baby's
neck in a cloth wrung out of cold
water, and covering this with a dry
cloth. This is soothing and harmless.
