loose, good coating of putty APP
piled around their. edges can pre-
vent much cold finding its way into
the house.
In an old house there isn't much
can be done with walls that let in
cold, unless they are finished over
again.
In building new home, however,
the owner should take special care
to see that the contractor gets a
good thick insulating material to
make the walls tight. There is a
material made of cattle hair stitched
between sheets of abestos paper, and
quilted product which is efficient
and inexpensive.
In treating an old wall, it is
necessary to nail Turing strips over
the old plaster upon which new
lath and plaster, insulating board
or insulating material and wall
board is applied.
The attic is the meeting place of
the warm air ascending up through
the house and the cold air coming in
through the roof.

II XCESS acid is the common
T. cause of indigestion. 1t results
in pain and sourneSs about two
hours after eating. 1t is responsible
for most of the everyday ailments
that people suffer; sick headache,
Sluggishness, nausea, biliouSness,
gas on the stomach, etc. The quick
corrective is an alkali which will
neutralize the acid. The best cor
rective known to medical science is
Phillips Milk of Magnesia. 1t has
remained standard with physicians
in the so years since its invention.
One spoonful of Phillips Milk of
Magnesia neutralizes instantly
many times its volume in acid. It is
harmless and tastelesS and its &C
ton is quick. You will never rely on
crude methods, never continue to
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1931-09-24

For this reason, the attic should
be well insulated against the cold
coming in and the heat getting out.
Some materials have been de-
veloped recently which are excellent
for this purpose. They are made
in blanket form of soft, flexible ma
terials such as felt, wool, hair and
fiber.
This can be stretched and tucked
between studs, floor joists and raf-
tiers. Other material comes in the
form of sheets to be used in mailing
over joists.
Insulation of the attic not only
keeps much cold out in winter, but
also prevents much of the heat of
a boiling summers sun from enter
ing.
Several types of shingles have
been put on the market which act
as insulation against cold and heat
entering the attic.
In repairing the upper parts of
the house for winter, it is well to
make a final examination Of the
cutters and downspoutS.

700 FRESHMEN
GET FREE REIN
AT CHICAGO U.
innovation in Education
Launched by Youthful
President.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Sept. 24.-More than
700 specially selected "smartest
freshmen" we're ordered to meet to-
day to hear President Robert May
nard Hutchins outline the new sys-
ten Of education at Chicago univer-
sity.
And the command to appear was,
1t was said about the only order
these "smartest freshmen" are likely
to receive during the first year of
their college careers.
once this meeting is over and
the youths have been told what they
are to do. the rest will be almost
entirely up to them, according to
the plan which Hutchins is intro
ducing TO the university.
Thereafter they will 60 to class
about when they feel like it, read
the books that interest them, confer
with professors when they like, and,
in fact, if they wish to do so, 90
about the task of becoming educated
in a manner so revolutionary as to
appear to the uninitiated as being
rather free and easy"
There is, of course, a catch" in
the scheme for the freshman who
accepts the plan too literally. Under
the new plan, the student who does
not make an apparent advance in
intellectual proficiency will receive
no credits and no reward for what
ever time he spends in college.
Millions to help get an educa-
ton, but not one cent to force one"
that is, in short, the plan of the
youthful president.
The system is based primarily on
q theory that an intelligent, ambi-
tious youth wants to be educated,
and that it is unnecessary to try to
force learning upon him if his
thoughts run entirely to other
things.

XXTAsHINGTON, Sept. 24.-Even
w though a furnace is in ex-
cellent condition, the basement
weather-tight and the heating unit
working to the limit Of its capacity,
the house may still be cold, This
government engineers state, is due
to poor insulation of the upper part
Of the house from cold.
All houses should be well ven
tilated, even in winter, but this
ventilation has nothing to do with
the drafts of cold air which find
their way into the house under
loose windows and doors, through
cracks in che roof and outside walls
of the home.
The only prevention against the
inroad of this cold air Is weather
proofing and insulating.
A sure sign that cold air is COM
ing in around windows is the move
ment of curtains on a windy day.
Then it's time for Misunderstanding.
Oakum One Remedy
A cheap way of doing this is to
stuff calking oakum or other pack
ing material around the frames.
This is a satisfactory method of
keeping out the cold, but it has the
disadvantage of making it impossi-
BILE to raise the windows, and it is
hard to remove when spring rolls
around again.
There are many kinds and grades
Of Misunderstanding on the mar
ket now.
Possibly the easiest for the ordi-
nary house tenant to apply is the
felt and rubber types. These lin
clude narrow wooden strips with
rubber or felt edges. Two other
types are the patent cloth variety
and the ordinary felt strip.
Inspect Window Panes
The same type of stripping may
be used in preparing doors for Win
ter. In this connection, it is some
times well to tack the stripping
around the bedroom doors, as these
rooms are generally cooler than the
rest of the house, due to more
ventilation. This is also true of
basement doors.
Heat can be lost through windows
by cold air coming in, and by
heat radiation through the window
pane. To remedy this radiation
storm windows are often built for
winter use.
If window panes themselves are

Novelist Declares Guilt Is
Physically impossible

By United Press
BALTIMORE, Nov 12-Indicted
by Kentucky grand jury for alleged
improper relationship with woman,
Theodore Dresser, the author, denied
the charge Wednesday night in an
outspoken signed statement which
contained an assurance of his
unacceptable private morality"
The charge, Dresser asserted, was
inspired by Judge D. G. Jones at
Pineville to blind the American
people to cruelties in the Kentucky
coal fields.
THE first thing, before attempt
ing to discuss any important econo-
mic or social matter in America"
the novelist's statement said, lis to
assure or rather to convince every
body-church and state alike-of
your complete and unabridged per-
sonal sexual morality. Otherwise
you will not be able to get their
minds off the matter and they can
not bring themselves to any serious
mental attention.
Such being the case, I am going
to reaSSure all Americans of both
sexes and all shades of color and
belief of my unacceptable private
sexual morality.
And how? BY letting them in on
a very sad but rather reassuring
truth. And that is that I, at this
writing, am completely and finally
impotent. The fact that I may be
seen here or there, On this or ;'lat
