House. in his speech of acceptance
today characterized the spirit of the
times as progressive and urged his
colleagues to move forward with
that spirit.
MI. Byrns expressed hope for a

lead toward true representation of
the wishes Of the nation.
we live in a progressive age.
Time does not march backward. We
much march forward with time. We
have done so in the last few years.
We must continue to do so if our
country is to maintain its present
proud place.
There doubtless will be times
when some of us disagree as to the
proper path. I feel sure, though,
that finally we shall all head in the
same direction and do so willingly
without bitterness or recriminations.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
BOARD STUDIES
MILLION-DOLLAR
WORK PROJECTS
Needed Street, Bridge and
Sewer Repairs Listed
by Engineer.

A list of possible Improvements
to the streets, bridges and sewers of
indianapolis was submitted to the
Works Board at its first meeting
yesterday by A. H. Moore, City En-
gineer.
Mr.. Moore made it plain that he
was not recommending immediate
action on these improvements, but
vas merely presenting them for
consideration.
The total cost of the improve
ments, according to estimates made
by the City Engineering Department
would run between $1,000, 900 and
ST, 300, 900.
Many of the city's bridges r in
a bad state of repair and either
should be replaced by new struc-
lures or restored to good condition,
Mr.. Moore said.
Most important of the suggested
new bridges would be one replacing
the present structure Owe Fall Greek
at Indiana-av. The cost Of a new
concrete bridge would be about
$270,0OO, including the cost of land
damage and right of way. 1t is pos
sible. Mr.. Moore said, that this
bridge might be built by the State
Highway Commission with funds
from a Federal grant.
Bridge Repairs Needed
Repairs should be made on the
New York-st bridge over White
River, Mr.. Moore's report said. This
bridge was improperly designed and
must be b~arricaded in time OF
floods. The necessary repairs would
cost about $4,000, an expenditure
previous administrations have been
unable to make.
A new bridge is needed for
Shelby-st over Pleasant Run and
the present Sherman-dr bridge over
the same stream, which was re-
paired only recently, should be re-
placed with a new structure, the
report stated.
Extensive repairs or new bridges
are needed at Vermont-St and
Pogue's Run and at 9th-st and the
canal. Both these bridges are now
closed to traffic.
Street Repair Recommended
Street improvements which may
be made under the new administra-
ton include the widening and re-
surfacing Alabama-st from FIT.

Cost Of placing a proper Rio Grande Valley exhibit
NJ the Texas Centennial exhibit in Dallas has been
place at between SOS 900 and So. 900 by those actively
in charge Of the proposed display.
No one who has had any experience. either as a
spectator or as an exhibitor at occasions Of this sort
win question the amount Of money placed as the de-
sired amount for the exhibit. The figures seem
reasonable and would provide a sufficient amount
to properly place the attractions Of this section be
fore the hundreds OF thousands who will visit the
Dallas Centennial grounds. At the same time the
figures do not represent an extravagant amount.
The question that looms uppermost is this: How
can that amount OF money be raised?

Buy Your Mushrooms,
Don't Pick Them
BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN
Editor. Journal Of the American Medical Associate
and Of Hygeia. the Health Magazine

Two couples went out into a nearby woods and
picked a large quantity Of mushrooms. Into the pan
in which these fungi were cooked, a quarter was
dropped. in the belief that any poisonous mushrooms
would be revealed If the silver coin became furnished.
The quarter did not tarnish. so that night. the four
sat down and had a hearty meal Of the delicacies.
AT 2, in the morning. one OF the women awoke
with a severe abdominal pain. associated with nausea,
vomiting. dizziness and prostration. At 4. her hus-
band suspected that the mushrooms might have been
poisonous. so he took a large dose OF salts.
A doctor was called at s TO treat the woman. Later
the other couple felt the same symptoms. For SO
hours. all four were exceedingly sick. developing
severe jaundice. Finally, two died.
When their bodies were examined. the livers and
the kidneys we're found to be badly damaged. Even
the nervous system and the brain showed signs Of
severe damage.
This incident should bring home to you two i'm
portant lessons:
!. To be sure that mushrooms are not poisonous,
buy them from an experienced dealer who can take
the responsibility.
:. II you do happen to feel any symptoms Of
mushroom poisoning. as 7 have described above, call
a doctor Immediately. because prompt action means
the difference between life and death.
Mushrooms have been eaten BY human beings as
far back as history can record. The ancient Baby
lonians used to enjoy them and the early Romans
sold them rs delicacies.
But also, far back in ancient Greek history. there
is the record OF the wife Of the famous Greek poet,
Euripides. their two sons and a daughter. who died
after eating mushrooms. And there seems to be evil
dence that the Roman emperors, who wanted TO get
rid Of certain friends or enemies. did not hesitate to
administer mushroom poison.
There are more than 80 species Of poisonous mush-
rooms in this country. the most deadly type being
the Amanita phalloides. It is responsible for more
than 90 per cent OF the deaths from mushroom
poisoning.
And there are almost as many tests for poisonous
mushrooms. Most are unreliable. The case I have
recalled shows that even the silver test, one Of the
most popular in use, can't be depended upon.

Like First Pioneers

Now it is reported that q certain amount Of dis
content has replaced the fine enthusiasm which at
first pervaded the ranks OF those 1885 pioneers who
are engaged In settling the Matanuska valley In
Alaska.
The colonists. 1t Is said. find that there aren't
enough tents. that the weather is pretty rainy. that
some Of the farm sites are pretty swampy, and that
1t is hard to get the trucks to move up household
goods.
All this. probably. is chiefly the natural reaction
from the initial enthusiasm. Any job like this one
is bound to have its dark moments. The original
pitch Of joyful expectancy could not possibly be
maintained.
The present mood Of depression no more indicates
that the venture is a flop than the first hoop-la
spirit proved that 1t was a gorgeous success.

Advertising Profits Apple
Growers

The sum Of $4,000 spent in advertising saved the
Yakima Valley, Washington, apple deal. says w. r.
Hayer. secretary Of the Washington Deciduous Tree
fruits, in a recent statement.
Ms. Hayer is fwther quoted to the effect that If
the advertising campaign had not been staged. the
Yakima Valley growers would have had on hand June
! Q little matter OF 1000 carloads OF apples instead Of
the mere 200 they did have. The campaign resulted
In q cleanup. says Mr.. Hayer.
To quote him in more detail:
Two weeks after the advertising had started. APP
pie consumption had increased. Where Winesaps
were selling for IS q 75c per box + O. b. shipping
points. the price increased to IS q sOc. and there was
a continued rise in prices until at the present time
Winesaps are being sold for sls5 q 81 10 per box.
Delicious prices did not increase in line with
WineSap prices because Of the condition OF the fruit
and the limited amount Of advertising that variety
received.
The old law Of supply and demand will govern
prices. for as soon as we created a demand for our
apples. prices advanced, and I believe We have merely
seratched the surface with our advertising"
The apple advertising campaign to which Mr..
Hayer refers was carried in The Brownsville Herald
some weeks ago. and perhaps some Of the readers Of
The Brownsville Herald wondered by what strange
twist Of things the Pacific coast was able to adver-
tise its apples In a country noted for its citrus fruit
production. Growers OF Washington simply raised
the money and went to IL. Their co-operatives flood
ed the newspapers receiving the campaign with
publicity. Joobers in the sections carrying the ad-
v~ertising went out OF their way to help boost the sale
of apples. Grocery stores carried special window dis
plays and featured apples in their advertising.
And the apples we're sold on an advancing market
and the growers received more money for their fruit.
A deal that had looked like a dud was pulled out Of
the mire and made a success.
No special magic touch. no glittering genius was
required. The Will to do prevailed and apples we're
sold.
What the apple growers Of the state Of Washing
ton have done. surely the citrus growers Of the Rio
Grande Valley can do.

few thousand dollars could be raised by these means
among the approximately $4,000 families of the VAL
ley that could be counted upon to show a reasonable
amount Of interest In the Valley display.
But the greater amount Of the Valley fund must
come. and there Is little use in attempting to dis
guise the fact. from individual contributions OF firms
and individuals living or interested In this section.
That fact should be realized at the start, for II we
are to have an exhibit. we want 1t to be a real one,
not any such half-baked affair as disgraced Texas
at the Chicago worlds fair.
