FAIL TO BREAK
SCHOOL STRIKE
IN |Rv|NGTON
Board Refuses Demands of
Parents; Attendance Law
Enforcement Hinted.

Strike of fifty-six pupils of School
81 as a protest over transfer to
School IS remained unbroken today,
despite threats of school board
members to enforce attendance laws.
Threats were made today by sew
eral parents to move to other
school dis riots. Several others
planned to enter their children in
the Catholic school, two blocks west
of School 81. Practically all the
striking children remained out OF
school today.
A committee of five, representing
parents of the striking pupils, pro-
tested recent boundary changes,
causing pupils living north of Wash
ington st. and east of Arlington
Ave. to be transferred to School IS,
at the school board meeting Tues
day night.
Refuse to Alter Boundary
The board refused to alter its
boundary lines announced several
days ago. A delegation of more
than 100 Irvingtonites living south
of Washington st. was present to
protest any change in the present
boundaries.
The strike was started Monday
when the new boundary lines be-
came effective.
Objections presented to the
boards ruling. voiced by Orville E.
Crawford. spokesman, were prin-
cipally the additional hazards i'm
posed on children forced to cross
Washington st. and also the I'M
guarded Arlington Ave. Pennsyl-
vania railroad crossing.
Promises of police and school po-
lice protection at crossings were
given by the board.
Purchase of seven and one-half
acres of ground south of Broad
Ripple High School to allow for eX-
pansion, urged by delegation from
the north side, was taken under adj
VlSemenC Two weeks.
Delay Architect Selection
The board authorized by resolution
a temporary loan of $500 to meet
current operating expenses, $375, 900
to be borrowed from the Shortridge
building bond fund and $175,000
from the Arsenal Technical building
bond fund.
Selection of architects for four
grade school buildings was delayed
until a special meeting.
Resolutions to name two Indian
apolis schools after Joseph j. Bing-
ham, former board member from
1871 to 1887, and George B. LOOMS,
first musical director, appointed in
1885, we're taken under advisement.

Good Business


The chief interest in railway rates manifested by
good many shippers and receivers of freight is that
of having rates their shipments made and kept
as low as possible. Is that good business
Every man who understands and appreciates bust
principles realizes that those with whom he deals
must make fair profit in order to give him the right
KIND OF goods service He could not afford to place
orders with them he had to believe that their
prices were mpossbly low. Such logic is selfproec-
ton The concern that is markedly out of line on the
side OF eheapnesS either will not remain long in bust
ness or will be forced skimp on quality or service
in order TO get by
So 1t is with the railroads. Furthermore the serv-
Ice they sell intimately connected with the sue
OF every other business that the price of if is
relatively much less important to the buyer than is
the character of the service If railway service were
nonresident or scarce, it would be cheap at any
price.
Fortunately, however, railway service is plentiful
it is good and it is efficiently produced in volume
that it can be and is sold at incredibly low rates.
Where else in the world ton of freight be moved
expeditiousy, as safely, as reliably and as con-
venenty for small fraction more than one cent
mile? ct that is the average American freight rate
which means that many shipments moved even
cheaply than that
Such service would seem nearly the ultimate in
economy yet there those who would whttle rail
way rates even lower than they are, ignoring their
interests in having the railroads realize such
profit as will enable them to produce service having
the important virtues of speed safety reliability and
convenience.
1t is good business to force the price of any
product low to impair it's quality, and that prin
cpe applies with all the greater force in the of
product which is so essential to individual and
tiona welbeng the service the railroads perform

Machinery Has Freed
Women From Drudgery

1t is fascinating topic to debate
whether man lives up to his inven-
tons, or whether his inventions fol-
low him. One can argue forever to
prove that women today are better ed
ucated and more intelligent, because
it is necessary for them to know how
to manage the electrical equipment
which confronts them in both indus
trial and domestic life, or to prove
that the electrical equipment has pro-
vided the opportunity to develop the
use of their heads instead of their
hands alone. 1t is of small impor-
lance what the answer is. The fact
remains that homes are more charm
ing places in which to live, offices are
more attractive places in which to
work, and women are more interest
ing human beings, because electrical
machinery has come into existence to
do the body-breaking Misunderstanding
routine tasks, which for so many
years constituted woman's entire field
of endeavor.-Exchange.

His Fix

This is awful" calculated Uncle

brown taste in my mouth, mental de-
preston, tepid liver, crawling sensa-
ton up and down my spine, and a
disinclination for all forms of labor"
Mercy! What disease is it, Ty-
balt?" asked Aunt Fretty.

tons are all there, but the last few

Tablet for Graue of
Famous Lady Godiua

OF the fair Lady Godiva, the most
romantic female figure in English
legend, every child has heard, but how
many who are grown up could say
where she is supposed to be buried?
The lovely wife of Leofric, earl of
Mercia and lord of Coventry, died
probably shortly before 1885 and was
buried in a porch of the Benedictine
Abbey church, which stood on Hill top,
Coventry, and by which, it is most
probable, she passed that day when
she rode unclothed through the an
cient city to obtain the peoples re-
lief from the burdensome toll imposed
by her hard-hearted husband.
On that spot now stands s Pri-
DRY row, the offices of the Coventry
Insurance company, and in order
that the unique historic interest of it
may definitely be fixed an appeal is
being made for funds for a commem-
orative bronze tablet.

Almond Varieties

Almonds are of two kinds-bitter
and sweet. The bitter almond is cul-
tivated to limited extent in Mediter-
ranean countries, and the nuts are
used in the manufacture of flavoring
extracts and of prussic acid. The
sweet, or edible, almond is grown on
a commercial scale in the south of
Europe, in California and in some
other countries.

X-Roys Find Buttons

New uses are always being found
for X-rays. One of the latest is that
of searching for buttons and other
solid materials in piles of rags that
are to be used for paper-making. Seri
Gus damage to the pulping machine
is likely if buttons, hooks, eyes, and
such like are not removed from the
pulp. To prevent this, endless bands
convey the rags over an X-ray tube
where the solid materials are readily
detected by fluorescent screens in the
X-ray outfit.
