Bradley paused moment or two and then

an opportunity to reply, when Spalding first
began playing the game he was. I remember
him telling me how 1t embarrassed him to re-
ceive $40 q week for pitching. That was

pitching srnack-up ball for the Forest City
club of Rockford, H., in 1866, and fans used
to come over from Chicago in droves.

Polar Firm Head Points to
Role Business Plays in
Prosperity.

Several thousand city residents
are dependent directly on the ice in
dustry of Indianapolis for hveli-
hood, and just at this time, when
there is much talk of unemploy-
ment, it may be of interest to the
people of this community to know
what part the ice industry plays in
the industrial and economic life
of the city," said Henry Dithmer,
Polar Ice and Fuel Company presi-
dent.
indianapolis ice is made at home
by Indianapolis citizens, and the
money spent for ice goes right back
into other commercial channels.
When you buy ice, you are helping
build up your own community, and
in the act actually are providing
more employment for indianapolis
people, aiding in renting more In
dianapolis property, and making
more business for indianapolis
stores and business enterprises.
THE ice industry in this city rep
resents an investment of more than
81, 900, 900. This is in real estate,
buildings and equipment, on which
the industry pays in excess of $40,-
900 in taxes every year to the city
and Marion county.
IAN annual pay roll of more than
million dollars is turned over to
Indianapolis people and spent in In
dianapolis. This means $4,000 a
month, or approximately $4,000 a
week, no inconsiderable sum. but
one the loss of which would be in
the nature of a calamity.
Purchases by the ice companies
in 1928 ran to 100000. and in 1925
were increased to $500, 900, or another
disbursement of S57, 500 month
The increase Of purchases over 1925
is another demonstration of the con-
slant growth of ice production and

The Polar Ice and Fuel Company,
Dithmer said, is anticipating a flu
ture increase in ice consumption.
Although the present capacity is in

this winter to install improvements
which had been contemplated for
next year and the year following

BY BEN STERN


quarters Of Democrats and Repub-
icans indicate that the real battles
IN the 1880 campaign will be fought
for congressional seats.
Inquiries regarding the races for
national representatives are being
received from the Democratic ma
tional committee, while Senator
James E. Watson, sounded the key
note for the G. o. P. campaign in
his address at the Linton barbecue.
His text, which reviewed the
Hoover administration and the fact
that the party has carried out its
platform promises to create LED
eral farm board, revise the tariff
rehabilitate the merchant marine
and increase veterans relief, will
be adhered to strictly by congress
sional candidates.
Silent on Prohibition
Nothing will be said by Republic
ans regarding prohibition, drought
relief, or other similar questions ofn
controversial nature, it is indicated,
because Watson refrained from
touching upon such topics.
The senior senator is optimistic.
Thirty days ago our prospects
we're not so pleasant" he said. But
business has been on the upgrade
and people are realizing that the de-
preston we are passing through is
natural and can not be blamed upon
the Republican party or its leaders"
Watson will not curtail his speak
ing tour of the thirteen Indiana dis
tricts, he declared today.
Pleased With Turnout
His halt in the middle OF the Lin
ton speech caused Republican lead
ers to fee. that the senator's physi-
cal condition was not adequate to
the demands that will be made upon
him, but he speedily treasured Rob-
ert M. Lucas, executive director of
the Republican national committee
that he will be able to go through
with the program.
Republicans are extremely well
pleased with the turnout at Linton.
Much attention was attracted to
the fact that no mention Of the
drought and its relief we're con-
tanned in the address delivered by
Governor Harry G. Leslie, which
was to be the keynote for the state
campaign.
The Linton barbecue has>had an
unpleasant aftermath.
Negro Issue Stirred
None of the Monroe county candi-
dates we're present at the state
wide rally, because, as it was point
ed out, the invitation stated that
no Negroes we're wanted. Leave
your colored people at home" the
invitation was said to have declared.
Despite thi Sinjunction bus load

no Negro inhabitants.
Democrats in the Thirteenth dis
trict are not greatly pleased with
the recent behavior of Samuel M

nee for congress, in receding from
his pro1 ounced stand against prohi-
bitiol.

LAUNDRY ENDS
BLUE MONDAY
Housewives First Wash Day
Freedom Pleasant.

For the modern house, the old
fashioned Blue Mondays, with their
attending washday drudgeries, are
but unpleasant memories. Aching
backs, swollen hands, steaming suds
and messy, odorous washing rooms
now are out of the picture.
No longer must the home man
ager be a charwoman and a wash
tub slave. Such firms as the Pill
grim Laundry, Eleventh and Cornell
streets, have changed all Of that.
Now, with the use of modern ma
chinery, the laundry does the work
better, quicker and more econom-
ically than ever before. Blue Mon
days have been turned into pleasure
days. matinees, bridge parties, shop
ping tours and other interesting &C
tivities.
Like her husband, the modern
woman takes full advantage Of la
Dor saving services, and profits by
it both in health and wealth.
The Pilgrim Laundry has full
variety of services designed to fit
the requirements of every family
For instance, there is Thrift
Service" which is offered at a mini
mem charge of SIPS. This includes
the complete family washing and
the ironing of all flat work which is
retouched by hand. All apparel is
returned dampened and ready to
iron.
Then, too, there is the wet washed
and family finished service. OF par
ticular interest to the housewife is
the fact that only pure soap and
soft water is used in this modern
laundry, and as many as twelve diff
ferent changes of water are made
in rinsing and cleansing the clothes.

ENTIRE FAMILY
CO-OPERATES IN
FUNERAL RITES
Father, Mother, Two Sons
Are United in Giving
Public Service.

Most families have personal and
varied interests. Few fathers and
sons are connected with the same
business house; few mothers and
daughters have the same friends,
belong to the same clubs do the
same Things and go the same places.
But indianapolis has one family
whose interests are identical; whose
profession is the same, whose life
for years has been devoted to service
at a time when quiet attention to
many details is most necessary.
This family, the WaldS, funeral
directors at 1919 North Illinois
street and at 1922 Union street, even
open their home to those who prefer
the burial of their loved ones from
a funeral home.
Opened New Home
The family is composed of o. R.
Valid, Mrs. Valid and their two sons,
Herbert r. Valid and Raymond L.
Wald. Raymond Valid recently took
post graduate course in derma
surgery at the University of Min
nesota.
Thoroughly equipped for their
profession by years of experience,
the Walds have made an enviable
reputation in Indianapolis, Three
years ago new funeral home was
opened by them at 1919 North
Illinois street, in the belief that with
two locations, one, north and the
other south, they could be Of greater
service to indianapolis.
No charge is made for the use of
either of the funeral homes, al
though there is an increasing ten
dency to use such homes, because of
the convenience and facilities they
offer.
Each member of the family as
sumes certain and individual re-
sponsibilities in connection with each
funeral to the end that all details
are carried out with ease and with
out fuss and trouble.
A stricken family, at time when
their thoughts and hearts are
occupied otherwise, can dismiss
completely from their minds any Of
the attendant worries and leave all
arrangements to the VALID family
with confidence that every detail
will be looked after in thorough
efficient manner.
