Ivan said.
Several candidates for county
posts have sought Sullivan'S sup
port in recent conferences.
"I suppose the city hall folks will
vote sixty different ways but I'm not
going to try to dictate what they
shall do.
We'll give Democrats jobs at city
hall, of course. I ran and was
elected on the Democratic party
ticket and the Republican precinct
committeeman should give up their
Jobs to Democrats. When / have
given Democratic workers their
places I have discharged my respon-

remain" Sullivan said.

Mothers, Mix This
At Home for
a Bad Cough

You'll be pleasantly surprised when
you make up this simple home mixture
and try it for q distressing cough or
chest cold. 1t takes but moment
to mix and costs little, but it can be
depended upon TO give quick and last
ing relief.
Get pa ounces of PineX from any
druggist Pour this into a pint bottle:
then fill it with plain graduated sugar
syrup or strained honey. The full pint
thus made costs no more than small
bottle of ready-made medicine, yet it is
much more effective. 1t is pure, keeps
perfectly and children love its pleasant
taste.
This simple remedy has remark
able three-fOld action. 1t goes right to
the seat of trouble, loosens the germ
laden phlegm, and soOthes away the
inflammation. Part of the medicine is
absorbed into the blood, where it acts
directly upon the bronchial tubes and
thus helps inwardly to throw off the
whole trouble with surprising ease.
Pinex is a highly concentrated COM
pound of genuine Norway Pine, con-
tanning the active agent of creosote, in
a refined, palatsble form, and known
as one of the greatest healing agents

BIC DOWNTOWN
COLISEUM BOOM
AGAIN LAUNCHED
Mayor Sullivan Asked for
Early Consideration of
Proposal.

The question of constructing
huge downtown coliseum for Indian
apolis has been raised again at city
hall by William L. Elder, prominent
Democrat and realtor.
In a recent conference with Mayor
Reginald H. Sullivan, Elder asked
that early consideration be given the
proposal, discussed for several years.
and reaching its height under the
administration Of John L. Duvall,
ousted mayor. after the state legis-
lsture authorized cities to build
cOliSeums.
DuvaIl Named Board
Duvall set up a city coliseum board
headed by J, Edward Krause, owner
Of the Washington hotel for several
years, who has sponsored the coli
scum movement in cooperation with
the Chamber Of Commerce and con-
vention bureau.
The coliseum board studied types
Of buildings in use in other cities
and gathered data on downtown
sites. Before a site was agreed upon
the reins of government we're turned
over to l.. Ert Slack. who filled out
DuvalTs unexpired term, and the
coliseum idea was pigeonhOled.
I'm not going to do anythin-
about a coliseum or any other majo.
expenditure until I know something
about it. It would be nice to have
coliseum if indianapolis could afford
it. said Sullivan, citing the fact that
the city already has the state fair
ground auditorium, Cadle Taber-
nacle and Tomlinson hall for public
gatherings
Expenditure S3,OO0,OOO
The original Idea was to erect a
spacious building on a downtown
block, the total expenditure amount
ing to more than 100000.
Under the statute, the city could
buy a site and lease it to an operat-
ing company. or rent the building
with an option to buy, attorneys say.
With the city's bonding margin, at
approximately S300O,000, it is
thought unlikely that the Sullivan
administration would give serious
consideration to such a major prof.
ect at this time.
Elder told the mayor that he had
no site in mind and didn't care
where the building is located, except
he believed it should be downtown.
Advocates of the large building for
nilhIic GATHERINGS contend that its
construction is essential to boost the
reputation of indianapolis as con-
Yention city.

in a strange role which will give
you the creeps; great acting on the
part of Roland Young as to the
spoken word and the great idea Of
getting one all confused.
THE Bishop Murder Case" Is a
beautiful attempt on the whole, with
some lost motion, to give you an
entertaining experience in mystery
When the murderer and the cause
of all the trouble is really found,
you will be surprised.
This sort of story is hard to do.
I had many thrills and a bunch of
chills. Rather jolly, chilly fun.
Here is lot of mysterious fun in
the theater.
I recommend 1.-THE Bishop Murder

as it can reach, in straight line.
Q. Stretch your legs out straight
together, also in straight line with
your body.
3. Raise both legs an Mich or two
from the floor, and with quick
swing thrust the right leg back and
the left leg forward as far as you
can stretch both of them. Bring
them together and repeat.
4. Turn onto your left side, stretch
out your left arm and begin the ex-
ercise again, always swinging the
under leg backward and the top leg
forward.
Begin this exercise with three
Scissors strokes" on each side. In
crease the number to five the second
day. and by the third, take ten
strokes on each side.
No benefit accrues from over
doing exercises. Women are apt
to rush into exercises enthusiastic
cally, overdo them for a day or
two, become lame, and stop alto
gether.

do not laugh, at least three or four
times, 1 think my advice would be
go see a doctor.
At the races Green is riot. No
body can keep him from the front
lines, and If he desires to borrow the
mans field glasses next to him, he
Just reaches out and takes them.
When he goes to visit Mr..
Livingston, a man made wealthy by
the stock market, he askes the
servant to bring in some dishes. You
see. he wanted to find out If they
were made of solid gold, such as he
had read about in the magazines.
To his great disappointment, they
were not gold.
But when Green gets in the stock
market, himself, then the run really
starts. The excitement of the ticker,
he has placed in his cigar store,
proves to be almost too much for
him. He becomes suddenly rich,
and then when the market falls he
is right back where he started.
But he isn't really at all. In the
excitement the telephone rings I'M
noticed to all, except the old Jew,
his brother. He answers the phone,
and says his three words Eyes, sure,
certainly" The party on the other
end is Green's advisor, and he askeS
it if is all right to sell the stock.
And all this when the stock is at
it'SS highest point.
The love interest in this comedy
is furnished by Mary Brian, as
Green's daughter, and Neil Hamil-
ton. an ambitious garage mechanic.
Harry Green proves himself a
very apt comedian in this picture.
He is funny, and 1 think you will
agree with me.
The stage show, "Sky Harbor, "
though nothing sensational, is good
entertainment. The high spot here
is HerShel Henlere, who proves
himself very clever on the piano.
Separate from the stage revue
Charlie Davis and his band are pre-
sented in sketch called Fifteen
Minutes of Whoopie." Charlie and
his boys entertain, and they really
do. Good work, Charlie, do it again
sometime. Enjoyed every minute of
the fifteen.
Other features are Dessa Byrd in
an organ solo and Newsreel.

.NNE of the first steps in round
~ ing the 1880 curves" consists in
reducing the hips and thighs until
they are of the desired proportions.
New standards of beauty in fem
mine figures call for curved con-
tours, it is true, but they should be
only slightly curved. The hipline
should avoid excessive fullness; the
thigh, heaviness. Moreover, the
body should have Tilt to it that can
come only from supplenesS.
There are several exercises that
take off the flesh and timber up the
body until it is thoroughly supple.
All of these hip and thigh reducing
exercises that really are eftlcaclous
aer done on the floor.

The best method of procedure
and the surest is to start slowly and
increase the number and kinds OF
exercises gradually.
And you must make up your mind
that it will take a week or so be-
fore your body gets used to
stretching and exercising.
If you continue faithfully each
morning for a month or six weeks,
you will find yourself thoroughly
enjoying the stretching and bend
