WHITE EDUCATION NEEDED FOR CIVIC RIGHTEOUSNESS. DEPARTMENT CLUB MEETING MA person willing to sacrifice personal indulgence to civic pride," waa the definition Mrs.tEdward Franklin Wblte gave for a civician, or one who le Interested in civic affairs, at the luncheon given by the civics and social welfare departments and the extension section ojt the Woman's Department Club, Saturday.

With Mrs. Demarchus Brown, Mra. S. E. Perkins, Mrs.

R. a Bennett and Miss Ida Anderson as speakers, the program was interesting. "If we searph our minds and our dally actions, we will find we allow ourselves many Indulgences that, in one way or another, are an offense to others." said Mrs. White. "We need more Puritan blood in us to help us curtail those indulgences, that Puritan blood that prohibited rocking chairs and music because of the self-discipline, not because of their offensivenesa to others.

We have come to think that a pleasure which is merely a personal luxury is quite In accord with our individualistic creed, and ao permit ourselves those indulgences, but we axe swinging still further away from Puritanic severity when we also permit ourselves Indulgences that offend others. Some Indulgences. pet indulgences may be in being late to meetings or appointments; It may be In leaving the cover off the garbage can; It may be In allowing litter to accumulate in our alleys; it may be in permitting the continued of nuisances in our neighborhood; it may be in neglecting to. close a street car door after us; it may be in refusing or! neglecting to make protest against an incompetent or dishonest official; it may be In refusing to interest ourselves in glaring corruption in a city administration; it may be in refusing to Interest ourselves In the election of good officials, for, after all. aa we have all found, the best way to fight evil is to displace it with good; it may be in neglecting the individual' cases of destitution or delinquency or misfortune that come within our purview.

We indulge ourselves in neglecting these things, for it is every citizen's business, and every woman's business, to make the city a clean, honest, safe and happy place to live. i "Some of these indulgences may be eliminated merely by the correction of bad habits. Let us begin with the garbage can and the street car door, and then, as a matter of fixed habit, we close them both, we have taken one firm step In the direction of pride and virtue. To eliminate some of the other indulgences will require an Infusion of courage with a Sherlock Holmes injector, but this is a quality of courage that many women in this world, and in this In this city, and even in" this have conspicuously. It' Is -the courage that 460 women had In the unearthing of the election frauds In Terra Haute, taking their poll books, watches, cameras and note books in hand and standing twelve hour at the polls, gathering evidence.

We all need courage, and more courage, but before we are even ready to begin to cultivate our civic conscience we need education In practical fvica, for the reformer who starts a reform without knowing Just what he Is doing and why he la doing it, ia not advancing, any reform rj "And that Is one need that the civics section of the Department Club meets the need for education In civic rlghteous-ne. It also furnishes the method by which It may be accomplished co-operation' Woman's Clubs Approved. Mrs. Brown gave an Interesting talk on "Reminiscences of a Clubwoman," further establishing her position as one of the most brilliant women speakers who appear before clubwomen. Mrs.

Brown said she wholly approved of clubs for women. In introducing her Mrs. Row land Evans, the toastmaater. said Mrs. Brown was from classic Irvtngton, wnere everything is "finished" but the streets.

Mrs. Brown said that tne cnurcn aid societies and W. C. T. Ua had paved the way for women's cluhs, and that the club movement was simply an- expression of woman desire for more She traced the club movement from the early days, and said that it had progressed to such an extent In an educational way that It was almost a crime for woman to be ignorant.

She told in a humorous way of woman's first club papers In great timidity and prepared from the encyclopedia with such great care. 'That women had been overworked and under- Inspired, and that the club movement freed 'them from little and uncharitable thoughts; to do bigger worVs. was opinion expressed by Mrs. Brown. Miss Ida Anderson, of the extension de partment, told why that department had been organised.

The idea as told by Miss Anderson is to help the young woman, the stranfter, from the country, who. comes 10 me cuy. one loia or toe lone-someness of such young women, and of the benefit to be derived from "becominr a member of-the extension department of the Woman's Department Club. She said, however, that the education should berin with the parents of the young women wno onen leu.Tneir enjiaren mat. to go to the rlty to work Is the night of ambition.

She said if country life could be made more attractive, there would not be such a congestion of underpaid, overworked. lonesome young women In the city. Mrs. R. Bennett gave a hlstorr of the civics department of the Woman's Department Club and Mrs.

There is nothing remarkable in this; thousands of Americans are i do ing the same thing all the time. Thla particular Instrument was notable, however, in that It cost this rich New York music lover something like $2,000 to place the Instrument in his home! This phonograph waa not set In precious stones, as some might think, according to the price figure, nor was It anything unusual as regards Its reproducing mechanism.

In fact, it was an Aeofian-Vo-callon of the type that has become known in so many cities of the country during the last year, and which can be bought for the usual prices at which phonographs are sold. This New Yorker, however, was the possessor of a beautiful music room, the handiwork of a great metropolitan decorator. The ordinary phonograph case would never do for this stately apartment, with its carved paneling and its rich furnishings, and so a special case was designed by the Aeolian Company's art department. It was beautifully carved and finished in a way to bring out all the exquisite color tones inherent in fine wood. Several months were required before this case waa finished and ready for the skilled workmen to install the reproducing mechanism.

It waa placed In the New Yorker's music room the other day. and he declares himself wholly satisfied with his investment. This incident is typical of development tn the phonograph Industry. There was a time not so long ago when manufacturers timed out only two kinds of phonograph cafes golden oak and red 'mahogany. Nowaday cases of even the moderate priced instruments must be art products finished with the same t-are and taste that were formerly lavished only upon blth grade pianos.

The public which for years has been buying period furniture and indulging In colonial houses, is no longer satisfied to a golden oak phonograph case stand. Ing' next to a Sheraton sideboard. The result has been a wholesale revolution In the phonograph The Aeolian Company, however, is the first of the large concerns to establish a special art department for the designing of cases. HOPE OF RELIEF FOR IS NO AGREEMENT YET REACHED I VA IT" DEI 1 IftCDCUTC AMERICANS WORK ON PLAN IX5NDON, February 7. The foreign office has given out a letter from Sir Edward Grey, 'secretary for foreign affairs, to Herbert C.

Hoover, chairman of the American commission for relief In Belgium, and the cablegram exchanged between the Polish relief societies of Chicago and Premier Asquith, which Indicate that no agreement has yet been reached betwen the belligerents for the relief of the civilian population of Poland. Supplementing this correspondence is a letter from Mr. Hoover which resulted in the reply 1 published by the foreign office. The correspondence on the subject leaves the problem of feeding Poland unsettled, and confirms the opinion in well informed relief circles here that any agreement which would enable relief to be carried on is so remote aa to make It extremely improbable. Dependa on Belligerents.

Discussing Sir Edward Grey's letter, Mr. Hoover said: "Sir Edward Grey's letter has been referred to Ambassador Gerard at Berlin, w-ith the hope that it will furnish a basis for negotiations. Americans interested in Polish relief work must, however, bear in mind that allied shipping is so preoccupied in allied transport that without the benevolent assistance of some neutral government In providing a regular shipping service for this purpose, it would be Impracticable to do anything or a systematic order, even if all the multitude of other difficulties were overcome." Mr. Hoover's letter to Sir Edward Grey, dated December 22, follows: "Sir Knowing your keen desire to mitigate in every possible way human suffering arising out of the war, I feel justified In brtngtng before you a suggestion In behalf of the civil population of Poland. I attach hereto a petition which the commission has received from the large and representative relief committee in -Warsaw, and also a report made aa a result of personal investigation, at, our instance, by Dr.

Vernon Kellogg, until lately director Cn Belgium of our work there. Worse Than In Belgium. "No added words of mine can darken the picture of misery and despair which these statements depict, representing as they do what would have been the fate of Belgium but for the relief afforded under international auspices, with your earnest support. I have had some informal conversation with the German au thorities, who have assured me that there are cereals and potatoes available in Po land and elsewhere, from which by mobilization and organized distribution some sort of minimum ration can be provided. Other items of a dietary do not exist in Poland, and they are critically necessary to preserve health to the strong and life to the weak and to forefend from the whole population already Incipient te-mine and diseases.

The shortage of these par ticular commodities In Germany leaves no hope of help for Poland 'from that quarter. 1 I am assured by- the German authori ties that protection will be afforded to local and imported supplies for the exclusive use of the civil population, and also that every facility will be afforded this commission in Its task of organiza tion and distribution under proper guar anties. It appears to us that deficient fata. beans, some breadstuff s. together with condensed milk for children, can only; be obtained by imports from overseas," for which there would seem to be a route practicable from the western hemisphere to Sweden, with transshipment thence via Danzig pr Libau.

We would not undertake such a task without' the approval and co-operation of i the allied government- Allied Aid Needed. 'Tn making provisions for food supplies for these people, we should need not only to rely on charity, but to assemble all the economic resources of Poland and its Institutions in much the same manner as has been done In Belgium, and we should need the permission of his majesty's gov eminent to facilitate exchange and banking -operations. "The painful gravity of the situation In Poland can not be gainsaid, nor need I apologize in addition to our other very grave responsibilities. We have no desire to add to our business, but if fourteen months of service in Belgium have commended us to the various belligerent governments it is our duty to use the confidence thus acquired in behalf of the Polish people, and I wish to add that if the allied governments are prepared to assent to such relief measure, and If any other institutions can be summoned to undertake their execution, commission would be glad to give any hdvice arising out of its experience, or, alternatively we should be glad to Incorporate 'such other body in any organization we might set up." Impossible at Present. Sir Edward Grey's letter to Mr.

Hoover, given out by the( foreign office for publication, follows: "Desr Mr. Hooveri. I have carefully considered your letter of December 22. regarding the proposed scheme for the relief of Poland. In the face of accumulating evidence of German and Austrian requisitions in Poland, some mention of which you wm nnd in the Inclosed tele.

graphic correspondence with Polish or ganizations in the United States. I fear it would be impossible to enter Into anr arrangement with you In regard to any scheme of relief until the German and Austrian governments have prohibited the export of all foodstuffs from Russian Poland, and have guaranteed that native stocks of foodstuffs shall. not be drawn upon to maintain the occupying armies. "If and when this were done, it might be possible to come to an arrangement with you allowing the importation of certain articles Into Polland in retumfor undertakings on the part of the German and Austrian governments to supply an adequate ration and other necessary articles and to give you a Tree hand in the distribution of all stocks of foodstuffs thus madej i available. Doubts That Germans Will Aid; "But prohibition of export and the guaranties mentioned above- must be regarded as conditions precedent to any further discussion, since these measures are demanded by the situation now existing quite Independently of the question of Imports, and the fact that they have not yet been put into force "constitutes evidence that the German and Austrian governments will never co-operate in aiy work undertaken in the Interest of the population of Poland." LOOKS FOR POLAND DIMINISHED Chicago Leader Believes, Arrange-, ment4 Will Be Perfected.

CHICAGO, February 7. "We are not surprised at the statement of Sir Edward Grey, England's secretary for foreign affairs, that his country can not permit shipment of food to under present conditions." said John F. Smulski. of Chicago, In a statement made public today. Mr.

Smulski, who has represented the American Polish organizations In negotiations regarding relief for Poland, expressed the belief that international conditions yet would so shape themselves as to make possible the sending of foodstuffs to the oeople of that country. "England asks what It is right and fair she should ask of us. Germany Is willing to make every necessary concession consistent with charity and humanity," con-continued Mr. Smulski. Can Not Be Too Critical.

"In the face of existing military conditions, we have no right to view too critical the attitude of either aide. We must wait until we have exhausted our efforts, and received an ultimate refusal. "As I read Sir Edward Crey's letter to Herlrt O. Hoover, chairman of the American commission for the relief of Belgium, England demands three tnings of Germany: Prohibition of the export of foodstuffs from Russian Poland; a guaranty that native stocks of foodstuffs shall -not be drawn on to maintain the occupying armies, and -assurance that the relief i romrriittee will be riven a free hand in the distribution of food. "As to the first demand.

I believe Germany will agree to prohibit further exports of foodstuffs Trom Russian Poland, No Native Stocks on Hand. "As to the second, I believe there are no native stock of food, and hence they could not be dfcwn upon by the occupying armies. "As to thethird demand, we will give every assurance that relief committees will be given a free hand and that food imported for relief will be distributed only among the stiff Hrlng civilian population. We, therefore, believe we can meet every condition imposed by the British government. i PUTS BLAME ON GERMANY.

London Daily News' Says Guaranty Wuld Not Be SufficienL LONDON. February 7. "The starvafc. tion of Poland "will complete the work of estranging American opinion definitely from the German cause," declares the Daily News today In editorially discussing Sir Edward Grey's answer to the letter of Herbert Hoover concerning the feeding of Poland. The Dally News approves of Sir Edward Grey's answer; saying: "It is certain that to permit Importations into Poland, even under American supervision, would simply stimulate the zeal of Poland's persecution.

Moreover, there is no certainty in these days that even an American guaranty would long suffice to assure us that the food Imported would not be stolen. The tragic irony is that the present position entitles Germany to represent the entente allies as responsible for the starvation which she is inflicting on Poland." $100,000 Raised in New York.

STUDENTS BURN STREET CAR Notre Men Allege That They Are Discriminate Against. Special to The Indianapolis New SOUTH BEND. February 7. Stu dents of Notre Dame university last night forced a motorman and a conductor of a- local street car to leave their posts when the car was outside the city limits and then set it on fire. When the police and firemen reached the scene, the car almost completely burned.

A high wind aided in its quick destruction. Trouble between the students and the street railway employes began last Thursday It is said, a conductor who was -locked' In his car as a Joke threatened the students with a switch hook. Several have been injured in clashed with the students since then. The railway employes charge that the students refuse to obey the rules of the company and the students say they constantly are discriminated, against when tney riae on tne cars. One hundred and fifty Notre Dame men came to the city last night, paraded through, the street railway elation and boarded the last car to the university grounds, which was the one destroyed.

Authorities Of the university and official of the street car company are co-operating an investigation. Several cars have ocen stoned in addition to the one Durnea. Dr. John Cavanaugh. president of the university, today expressed regret the trouble had occurred, ana saia ne Believed both the street railway company and the students were to blame.

"The street railway company men are poorly paid, and are not the kind of men who set a good example to the students," he said. "They themselves smoke on the cars and race along after reaching the city limits, like a bunch' of wild men. The crews have often endangered the lives of the students, and when we complain they sav at the. main offices that the trouble will be looked into, and It never is."
