Eight Bids Submitted

Competition for the new $206,O00
bond issue was rather keen, eight
banking syndicates submitting ten
ders for the obligations. Bids ranged
all the way from 200 per cent to 1865
per cent with the latter, incidentally,
carrying no offer of premium. The
winning bid was the only one which
was under per cent.
The time has passed when NUM-
cipalities could sell bond issues at
random, content in the knowledge
that a market would be found for
such obligations. The realization in
recent years that municipalities,
too, can become paupers has made
investment bankers cagey. Conse-
quently, conditions must be right
before a banking syndicate will buy
an issue of bonds.
There have been hundreds of oc-
cassions in the last few years when
bankers declined to make bids for
obligations of various localities.
With this in mind, Marion county's
ability to pare the interest on its
bonds from $50 to 200 per cent
within the last three months is quite
a feat.

DISMAL
FACTORS CITED
BY ECONOMISTS
Balance Sheet Presents
Developments on Both
Sides.

BY JULES BACKMAN AND A. l.
JACKSON
Viee-PreSidents. Economics Statistics. Inc.
In Wednesday, article we outlined the
status of several OF the broad factors
affecting the economic outlook. Today
We present balance sheet of the
financial situation.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1934-11-02

The county's bond issue,
w hich was awarded on
Wednesday to a group headed
by the Harris Trust and Saw
ings bank of Chicago, con-
sisted of s2O6,OOO serial obligations,
maturing from 1886 to 1914. More
over, in connection with the f1ota-
ton, it is interesting that the county
in addition to getting the attractive
interest rate of 290 per cent, was
paid premium of $587 by the Sue
cessful bidder.
An indication of the attractive
ness of this weeks transaction is
had by a comparison with the pre-
vious flotation. On Aug. l, the
county sold $4,000 Of bridge bonds
at a rate of $50 per cent. The
latest operation represented consld-
erably more in dollars, and, at the
same time, the interest was Ito OF
l per cent lower.
Laid to Economics
Fabian Biemer, chief deputy au-
ditor of Marion county, attributes
the happy conclusion of the f1nanc-
ing to the economies which have
been adopted by the present admin
istration and the improved financial
situation which has resulted as q
consequence of the prompt payment
Of indebtedness by taxpayers.
Undoubtedly, one i'm port a n t
reason for the speedy payment OF
indebtedness has been the slash OF
&c cents per 500 which has been
made in the county's tax rate. Citi-
zens now pay 80 cents as contrasted
with Sc cents previously.
Marion county's bonded indebted
ness amounts to $4,85O030, after Civ
ing effect to the latest sale. The
statutory bond limit is $11 1854 ,451, a
considerable distance removed from
the present amount. The next piece
of financing to be undertaken will
be in the latter part of next month
when bids will be sought on SGT 200
of refunding bonds.

the series of articles to take on

Regarding the Eyebrows

I honestly think that every
individual face has a pair of
eyebrows made to order for
that face. Therefore, it gives
me quite fright when I see
tweezers being brandished in
the air with abandon.

be removed, pulled by the
roots, of course, but not notice
ably enough to change the
natural line. Brushing is very
necessary to beautiful eyebrows.
1t should be done after powder
ing, as the last touch to ones
makeup.
Because my eyebrows are as
naturally platinum as my hair,
I can experiment in different
shapes for different roles that
I play. I do this with pencil.
But this practice is restricted
to blondes.

Puppies Require
Judicious
Care
Bv LIZ HUME

It is generally true that the
average puppy is handled al
together too much. This is
especially so in the homes
where there are children who
are fond of animals and take
a particular interest in the new
puppy.
They have the very best in
tentions and never once real
ize that they are doing the
least thing that would detract
from the puppy's general well
fare. They wouldn't think of
harming him for the whole
world. It is merely a lack of
understanding on their parts.
Children should be gently en-
1ightened on this matter by
their parents, who should ex-
plain to them why they must
not carry the puppy around.
Any sensible person knows that
a puppy should not be carried,
juggled or caused to run here
and there until he is completely
exhausted.
The best way of all is to allow
the puppy to exercise just as
much as he desires. Never force
him to be up and stirring when
he much prefers to lie quietly
or sleep. Avoid letting the
puppy become frightened.
This is very harmful in more
ways than one and may mean
the complete ruin of an ordi-
narily splendid pup. Do not
allow him to be scared by other
dogs. Persons who know no
better think it funny to tease a
young pup.
BY all means never urge a
puppy to exercise just after
eating. Then, if ever, he should

Try making the most OF your
own natural eyebrow line. At
night before you go to bed, dip
your finger in hot water and
rub it over a cake of soap.
Then firmly press the eyebrow
along its natural arch. getting
all the little hairs into line.
This stiffens them into a nice
arch. In the morning, dip a
bit of cotton in warm water
and follow the arch, removing
all traces of the soap.
Always brush your eyebrows
up toward the forehead, then,
with a tiny brush or a comb.

with the same upward line.

be allowed to rest until the meal
is quite we'll digested.
Large beef bones that he can
chew on and suck the juice and
marrow from are excellent as
pastime agents for the puppy.
And they are especially bene-
ficial.
Dog biscuits given whole and
unSoaked are very good for the
youngster to chew on and at
the same time derive a certain
amount Of food value from
even though he may not as yet
be able to chew them to pieces
as does the older dog.

The fastidious beauty knows
all the little tricks of making
up and uses them. The gla-
mour that she radiates exists
only because she takes the time
and trouble to make herself
alluring. She was not born with
that faultless loveliness you so
envy. But she does go about
her daily toilette with patience,
and no little detail escapes her.
One such beauty takes five
minutes to powder her face.
But when she has finished, her
skin is satin-smooth and has
that delicate loveliness that
compels one to look at it. I
asked her how she succeeded
in getting the powder on so
evenly, so perfectly blended to
her natural skin tone. Laugh
ingly she admitted it was a
trick. But I'll let you see how
I do it," she said. II think so

Hair Wave Cause Dandruff?

A~A "@NC N"NSS DoAAA uA
Dear Miss Shelby:
Until three or four years ago,
I never had my hair finger
waved. My hair is naturally
curly and rather dry, and it
never became oily or dull be-
tween shampooS, nor did 1 have
q trace of dandruff.
Since then, I have kept my
hair fingerwaved all the time,
and it has gradually become
oily, dull, and full of dandruff,
only a few days after each
shampooing. What is the REM
edy? Sincerely, MD.
Dear Miss M. D.:
If you believe fingerwaving
is the basic cause of your hair
problem, why not discontinue
it for a while? Seems to me
that is the logical thing to do,
especially as your hair is natur-
ally curly.
Get some of the handy little
combs or the gadgets used to
curl the ends. Personally. 7
think a natural wave is far
more attractive than the set"
wave achieved by a hair dresser,
Curling EyelaShes
Dear Miss Shelby:
For several months I have
been vainly trying to find some
method of curling my eyelashes.
If I brush them daily with
vaseline. will that bring about
the effect that I desire?
Sincerely, G. M. s.
Dear Miss G. M. S.:
Vaseline is a bit oily and
would not encourage lashes to
curl, I fear. 1t is good to apply
at night. Castor oil is even
better. for it tends to increase
the growth.
Brush the lasheS upward with
a small brush several times
daily. A very little mascara
after making up will improve
the appearance of your eyes and
lashes.
Should Gray Hair Be Hennaed?
Dear Miss Shelby:
am 80 years old, but already
my hair is quite gray. I should
1ike tO have IL dope dorlr
henna shade but 1 would like to
have your opinion as to it's ad-
visibility. Sincerely, G. I.
Dear Miss G. l.:
Please don't allow yourself to
become self-conscious or un-
happy about your hair. Concen-
trate on giving it the best pos
sible care and making it look as
well as you can. Well kept, be-
comingly arranged hair is al
ways attractive, no matter what
its color.
Consider carefully before U.S.
ing anything on it that will
give the artificial, unnatural
appearance that is so obvious.
However, let me suggest. if you
want to try henna for your hair,
that you go to a good hair
dresser, and have it done. ANA

so do have it done right, if at
all.
