To the Editor:
On the front porch of my home.
I found a circular headed, Prot
estant People Come Out.
This reminds me of the old story
in one of McGuffey's readers of
the boy fooling the people by cry
ing, 1.-THE Wolf Is Coming, The
Wolf Is Coming"
The comparisons in the circular
are ridiculous. One can readily
see the attempt to arouse a
religious strife to let one slip by
with his selfish desires and gains,
to smooth over his crimes against
our laws that this man Duvall has
committee, according to his con-
viction.
1t seems to the writer that a
circular of this kind, distributed as
this, and others have been, should
be prohibited and prosecutions fol-
low. 1t looks like trying to arouse
the sympathies of those who were
once fooled by the wolf cry.
1t seems to be very little act
to throw scare into the people by
rehearsing the old, old clan cry of
Catholics, Jews, and Negroes, or
any other rotten talk of this nature
60 smooth over and hoodwink the
voters.
Irn hand writing is on the wall.
I'll geople will stand only for
sound, honest government and are
not mixing religion and politics to-
gether.

1t could not have been an apple
that Eve ate, says DR.. H. T. Gould
of the Horticultural Department,
but it might have been banana
or an orange.
Thus one more aged-old tradi-
ton goes the way of all flesh,
though it is only fair to say that
this constitutes no reflection on
the biblical account.
The biblical account does not
specify the particular variety of
fruit which caused the fall of
man, but some imaginative ge-
MUS labeled it an apple, and an
apple it has remained in the
popular conception.
This is not the only case in
which the Bible has suffered from
imaginative geniuses who have
narrowed and misinterpreted its
words.

DuvaII to AXE Stump

Mayor Duvall Of Indianapolis.
recently convicted of violating
the corrupt practices act, SEN
fenced to thirty days in Jail, fined
$1,000 and barred from holding
public office for four years, not
only refuses to resign, but will
take the stump next week in an
effort to prove to the city that
he has been unjuStly criticised.
This is what you might call
nerve, and what might easily set
a troublesome fashion.
If it is proper for Mayor Du-
vail to defend himself in such a
manner, why is it not proper for
thieves, forgers and embezzlers to
do the same?

Woman'S Place in Homer

We are all glad that Miss Elder
is safe, that she and not her
hackers will get the money her
story brings, and that Thomas
Henry McArdle was only "hard
boiled" for the sake of protecting
her interests.
Meanwhile, the, question of
whether women should undertake
such ventures remains to be de-
bated.
Like most questions of the
kind, it not only finds people
divided, but more than willing to
express themselves.
Whatever else may be said,
there is no place in the discussion
for that threadbare contention
that woman's sphere is in the
home, or that she needs to try
every conceivable stunt to prove
that she has courage and brains.
With two drowned while at
tempting to fly across the ocean,
two rescued after narrow escapes
and one waiting to hop of, we
are willing to admit that there
is nothing on Gods green earth
that women are afraid to try, or
that is too much for them.

Let Mr.. Fixit, the Times representa-
tive at city hall. present your troubles
to city officials. Write Mr.. Fixit at The
Times. Names and addresses which
must be given. will not be published.
A letter to Mr.. Fixit today COM
planned of the fact that no new
street sign had been placed at Reid
Pl and Prospect st.
Mr.. Fixit: The corner of Reid
Pl. and, Prospect st. was neglected
when new street signs were passed
out over a year ago.
The old sign, with the enamel so
worn off it hardly can be read, is
still there. But we think we are
entitled to one of the new style
signs. The old sign is so badly bat
tered dozens of persons week are
unable to find Reid Pl.

The works board has referred
your complaint to the Indianapo-
lis Power and Light Company,
which erects signs. If there is a
light standard there you will have
a new sign.

Why Think of Movies?

Editor Times: I was reading In
The Times of the 18th, where DR..
Edward Griggs, in an address before
the Woman's Department Club,
made the statement that the mod
ern movie eliminates thought. After
paying our hard-earned gold and
silver to see lot of the bunk at
some of the movie palaces, just why
should any one think? Such as
this
"Old Bill Moran lives on the Bar
Nothing Ranch" with his daughter,
Sweet Adeline. They are happy as
possible considering the Masked
Mystery out of so cents in a poker
game at the Silver Dollar Saloon.
The Masked Mystery has never for
gotten the awful wrong done to him?
Bill Moran has a Chinese laundry
ticket for the only white shirt aid
collar he has in the world and used
for Sunday only. The Masked Mys-
terry kills five cowboys while stealing
the laundry ticket, and kidnaps
Sweet Adeline, Cowboy Joe (Ade-
lines sweetie) follows the Masked
Mystery" through thirty-two serial
installments, in an heroic effort to
save Sweet Adeline and get dear
old dads shirt and collar out of the
landry! If you didn't see the first
installment remember the Sweet
Capcral cigarette ads "Ask Dad-He
Knows! Why think?"

Flying for Dough

Flying across the ocean to
prove that it can be done, to gain
scientific knowledge, or even to
satisfy sheer love of adventure,
is excusable, if not commend
able, but flying across the ocean
for the dough" there may be in
it an entirely different matter,
especially if those who hope and
plan to get the dough" sit safe
ly at an office desk while others
risk their lives.

Mexico Washington Phone Proves It's
Utility

Nothing makes for world peace and understand
ing more than rapid communication between nations
This was demonstrated just the other day. Within
few days after direct telephone connection between
Washington and Mexico City was established, rumor
reached the United States via Havana that President
Gales had been assassinated.
Unlocking the receiver at the embassy in Wash
ington Ambassador Teller called up the Palace of
Chapultepec and from the president himself obtained
the celebrated denial of Mark Twain. The report
was Exaggerated" and before it could be published
in this country the ambassador was able to deny it,
OF course graver situations than that have arisen
in the past and doubt will arise again in the future
Wars have actually started false or ialsied news
the famous Ems Dispatch, for instance, which pre-
cipitated the Franco -Prussian War of 1870 Rapid
communications tend to prevent misunderstanding by
making truth easily accessible.
The Gales rumor, of course had nothing to do
with Mexican American relations, but it might have
contributed to further public misunderstanding of
an already puzzling situation.
The incident proves the value of instantaneous
contact between the capitals of the world as means
to better understanding between peoples. Incl
dentay it the first practical recorded use of the
telephone between Washington embassy and its
capital in foreign land.
