new MATERIAL
AND COAL YARD
READY FOR USE
Capital City Fuel Concern
Expands Its Facilities
for Business.

Opening of new yard at Forty
Sixth street annd the Monon rail-
road was announced today by the
Capitalo City Fuel Company.
When completed the yard will be
one of the most complete and mod
ern material yards in Indianapolis.
1t will be operated in addition to
the present yard at State avenue
and De Loss street. The new prop
erty is 70ox120 feet, with a four
teen-car switch in the center, al
lowing ample space on either side
for coal storage and warehouse IA
cilitieS.
A concrete platform 200x32 feet
along the west side will be used as
a coal-unloading base, assuring an
absence of dirt.
The company was incorporated in
January, 1925. 1t carries in stock
as complete a line of building ma
terialS as can be found in Indian
apolis. Enormous increase in bust
ness in this line brought about need
for more adequate facilities to keep
contractors supplied with materials.
The first unit of warehouses, COX
30 feet, is under construction at the
new yard and two or more others
are planned. A modern Office with
display room now faces Forty-sixth
street and in general conforms with
the surrounding style of architec-
ture. An extensive program Of land
Scape gardening in front of the Of
flee is planned.
A new all-electric automatic coal
Ilnloader of the belt type has been
installed. This is recognized as
the most efficient and economical
means of unloading coal from cars
or loading the company fleet of
seventeen large delivery trucks.
Among the construction contracts
for which the company has fur
nished materials are Butler stad-
ium, Jordan building, Butler field
house, College park apartments,
Commonwealth apartments, Tray
more apartments, and plastering on
the Scottish Rite cathedral and new
apartment just completed by the
Hauser Construction Company at
Fourteenth and Pennsylvania
streets.
Officers of the Capital Company
are E. A. Ogle, president; Bernard
Batty, vice president, and Thomas
M. Fitzgerald, manager.

One of the most striking phenom-

been the rise OF interest in health.
The philosophers of mankind have
for 20 centuries written eperams
aphorisms and proverbs indicating
with absolute unanimity their well
settled conclusion that health is the
in human existence.
Only recently has man begun to
take the necessary steps to secure
that highly desirable attribute fOi
,ail mankind. Indeed, In his survey
Our Times, Mark Sullivan considers
the work of preventive medicine the
greatest Of all the accomplishments
OF man, since it has freed human
beings from the fear of disease.
