There are several ways OF meeting
people, nice people, too, when one is
a stranger. One Of the best places
is through your church. Nowadays

Young peoples societies give par

people have organizations that make
it possible to become acquainted.
To have friends, it is necessary to
be friendly. With some folks that
is an art, something that just comes

must be acquired. But other people
do like to have their friends act glad
to see them.

Shows Good Judgment
With the sense and good judg-
ment you have shown in organizing
your life. with your doggedness in
sticking to your business career until
it has paid you something for the
years you spent with it, it seems to
me you should have to be lighting
people off.
Try being civil and interested IN
something besides your business for
a while. Ask Mr.. So-and-So how
things are coming along, Inquire
about the wife and kiddies and
watch him warm up. Your business

as some human machine. who does

Lonely Ones

BY MARTHA LEE

It is perfectly amazing how many
lonely. friendless souls there are in
the world. When you consider that
INDIANAPOLIS has a population of
some 375, 900 persons, which is surely
enough to allow each individual at
least one boon companion, one other
human being with whom to pass the
leisure hours, it is hard to realize it
can be possible.
But the letters that pour into this
Office are mute evidence that the
misery Of loneliness is here. I wish
it were possible for me to do some
thing really helpful about this, but
it isn't.
I am conducting a column OF al
vice. not matrimonial bureau. And
the only thing I can do is to sug-
gest what might be done about it.

ARCADE PLANS

LOCAL CHAMBER

Plans for the new arcade of the
city hall building have been com
pietcd by DR.. Arenovici,. advisor Of
the city planning and zoning com
mission, and a.drawing Of the com
pleted building and arcadcs is now
on display in the window of tie Ell
Centre Chamber Of Commerce. The
arcade design. was planned BY DR..
Aronovici especially for El Ceptro
and will present a solid, yet pleas
ing appearances, having. sturd.,' pill
lars and curved arches. A special
feature of this arcade is the colored
inset stencil at the top Of each arch
and the corner of the building
which gives an added beauty to the
whole.
DR.. Aronovici states that this plan
is adopted from the mission style,
for FL Centre streets, with particu-
lar attention to the cost of build
ling, which the designer states is
very reasonable. This arcade plan,
together with other suggestions viii!
be discussed tonight at the meet
ing OF business property owners ana
tenants in FL Centre. which has
been called at the chamber of COM
.aercc at 80 by the city planning
and zoning commission.
The object of the meeting is the
discussion with DR.. Aronovici Of a
uniform arcade plan for the bust
ness streets of FL Centre, which
would be only nominal in cost bur
would improve the general appear
ance of the city and especially i'm
pres the tourists who daily pass
through Ell Centre and who offer a
revenue to the city Which would un-
