Instead, the police hand them a ‘“courtesy card.” The card extends a welcome to the stranger, tells him in nice language that Indianapolis is glwd e {to have him in the city and hopes he will enjoy his visit and come again, { As an afterthought, the ecard lists the traffic violations of which the motorist is guilty and suggests-that he call at the Hoos- fer Motor Club and get a visitors’ emblem for his car and a copy of the Indianapolis traffic regula- tions. ———.,——— 0ld papers for sale at The Empire.

Only 100 domestic squabbles were beyond ment out of court. Mrs. Sansom is probation offi- cer to the Nottingham police court, and is the first person to whom women are referred whea they apply to the court for sep aration from their husbands. Inadequate heusing, mother-in- law and no domestic training are the three chief causes of domestic unhappiness brought to the atten- tion of Mrs. Sansom. sually there is at least one child involved in these domestic quarrels,” said Mrs. Sansom. “That is my strongest card. It seldom fails. I draw a picture of the child’s probable fate if robbed of father or mother in thg way they contemplate.” If mother-in-law is back of the row, Mrs. Sansom interviews her. If housing conditions are wrong she assists in obtaining new quar- ters. If the wife’'s lack of domes tic training is the fault, Mrs. San- som on Sunday morning shows the wife how to prepare a cheap and wholesome breakfast and how to tidy the home and make it more attractive. Monday seldom fails to bring six or seven unhappy wives to Mrs. Sansom’s attention, Saturday afternoon and Sunday apparently being a greater strain on domes- tic happiness than other days. ———————— 01d papers for sale at The Empire.

There will be no orchestra, “Jazz ‘can be played wonder- fully on an organ, and we know by. experiments that our guests will find great enjoyment in fox- trotting to its tunes as a change from a syncopated orchestra,” said the director.’ “Our experi- ence shows that dancing to an organ is even more easy .and more pleasant than to any other musie.” ——e——— THE EMPIRE HAS THE LARG- EST, .
