STOCKS SHOW DROP.

There has been great deal of discussion about
Fruit Industries, Ltd. and it's product, Vine-Glo.
The following statement should 60 long way
toward clearing up many misconceptions which
exist in the public mind regarding both Fruit
Industries, Ltd. and its product, Vine-Glo.
Fruit Industries, Ltd. is an organization of
grape growers operating under the California
Grape Control Plan This group of growers rep
resentS the most substantial and longest eStab-
lished factors of the industry Fruit Industries,
Ltd. is engaged in the manufacture and sale of
grape products
Vine-Glo the trade name for a product of
Fruit Industries Ltd, is the pure juice of various
varieties of wine-grapes
The sale of Vine-Glo is not violation of any
law. Section % of the National Prohibition
Act permits its use in your home. It's sale is
sincere attempt to solve serious agricultural
problem, problem which must be solved under
the restricting conditions of existing laws.
Vine-GlO is not ballyhoO for wine 1t is not
an attempt to promote the production Or sale
of alcoholic beverages. 1t is not an attempt to
increase the consumption of alcohol In the
home. 1t would be impossible for us materially
to increase such consumption. Ii our entire
inventory of grape juice were brought into
homes and allowed to ferment into wine the
total alcohol developed would be approx
mately only 100000 gallons This is only

total of 24oOOO,OOO gallons. From this it is
evident that our aim is not to capture or ex-
tend the present Legitimate alcohol market.
Our plan is to take product that has always
been available on the farm and place it within
the reach of the city dweller. Our aim is to
provide an outlet for the annual surplus of
wine grapes in California
Vine-Glo is offered in eight varieties: Port,
Virginia Dare, Tokay, MuscateL CLaret,

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Of Wales become king? It is known
that he is not fond Of the idea,
although all his life has been de-
voted to the idea that one day he
must become a ruler.
The British constitution does not
provide that the king must marry,
but there is an unwritten law that
he should do so, if only to carry on
the. line of succession.
Observers believe that II the
prince ever is going to marry it
must be soon, because he is near-
ing the dividing line between youth
and middle-age, and because it
would be a matter Of policy to
mount the throne accompanied by
a queen.
On the other hand, there Is a
fairly large section of the public
convinced that the prince never will
marry and never will become king.
With absolutely no official basis
for its theories, it believes that
when the time comes the prince
will abdicate in favor Of his brother,
the duke Of York.

CHICAGO, June 23.-For more
than two hours the Goodyear blinp
NIayfower was tossed about over
Chicago Monday night in the grip
of a terrific rainstorm that took
four lives and caused much prop
erty damage.
Thousands of north side residents
watched the blimp's progress and
deluged police and fire departments
with reports of its threatened de-
Struction.
Although watchers reported the
ship barely was skimming tall build
ings in its battle against wind and
rain, r. E. Greene, Evanston, a
passenger, said it never was lower
than 1000 feet and in no distress.
The blimp had been carrying pas
sengers and was returning to Cur
It's field when the storm broke sud-
denly and poured an inch of water
over the city in seventeen minutes.

Many Believe Eddie viii
Abdicate Throne in His
Brothers Favor.

LONDON, June 23.ZThe prince Of
Wales observed his 9th birthday
today, still unmarried.
For nearly twenty years, ever since
the prince approached q carrying
age, public opinion has expected
him to wed. Almost every eligible
girl in the world has been suggested
as his bride. He has turned them
all down, and today is as far from
married bliss as he ever was.
From sources close to the royal
court, it is understood there is grow
ing concern about the princes ap-
parent lack Of interest in marriage.
King George is 66 and partly due
to his age and partly to illness he
70 longer can take the active in
rerest in affairs Of state that he
once did. There is an opinion that
the time is not far distant when the
British throne will be vacant.
The question is, will the prince

Forget His TALL Is
Tanners Advice.

Just watch their eyes and you
can handle EN-"
That from an expert is advice on
the precise manner to use when you
want to make an alligator behave
himself. The expert is Katherine
Reid, diminutive blond who has been |
"monkeying around with alligators"
ever since she was big enough to
tramp the Florida everglades in
which she was reared.
Slight, weighing only ninety
pounds. she has learned from long
experience the trick Of wrestling
and throwing a 250-pound gator and
otherwise handling him in tricks. !
She came here with twelve gators
for an exhibition at Broad Ripple.
Experience has been hard teach
er. Her work has three times
brought her broken arms, resulted in
a skull fracture, caused her two
broken ribs-not to mention numer-
Gus decorations.
Watch Both Ends
"The trouble about the beasts IS
that you have to watch both ends
Of them all the time. I have seen
them knock a horse down with one
lick Of their tail and then kill him
with tail sWipe on his head. Any
time they hit you with their tail
you can bet you have a broken bone
some place. I've been hit with their
tail numerous times. Once was
hit on the leg and knocked down.
l got broken leg for that. AS I
hit the ground another tail swipe
fractured my skull. I was dragged
from the pit by a helper" She
has scalp scar almost the entire
length of her head from that
wound.
Now she doesn't regard her work
as dangerous because 1--WE learned
how to watch them"
Keep Away From Tail
"All you have to do is stay away
from their tail and then watch their
eyes to see what they're going to do
with their mouth. Fortunately, I've
never been caught in ones mouth.
That almost always means fms,
and it always is certain that you'll
lose whatever part Of your body
they crush down on"
''Is it possible to make pets of
them2" she was asked.
"Emphatically, no! The reason
is they don't seem to recognize peo-
pie, therefore they recognize no
friend"
Miss Reid uses her pale blue eyes
in hypnotizing the beasts, but
doesn't regard that as the greatest
of her feats.
Hold EN- Still
You're got to get hold Of them
and hold them still before you can
hypnotic them" she says. Then
it is comparatively easy. But the
trick is in getting hold of them. Oh
yes, I can hypnotic them and make
them lie in a stupor for hours, but
I've got to hold them down first"
The alligator girl will be at Broad
Ripple for an exhibition Sunday.
"All you have to do is watch me
do the work" she says. Then Ill
be glad to let you try your hand"
