house, COZ Main Street
The Smallpox Club is only a week old,
but it is liourishh4g and the members have
been having a high old time. About q
week ago a case of smallpox developed
in the big apartment house at the above
number and the patient was taken to the
pesthouse. The building was quarantined.
Then the inmates started in to have a
good time. They gave dinner parties and
ping-pong parties and pink teas to one
another
They had so much fun that all the
young folks in the neighborhood became
envious and longed to get in. The police
put a guard around the house, as much to
keep people out as to prevent those with
il from leaving. This afternoon the signs
above referred to were put in the front
windows. One of the bylaws of the club
is that all applicants for membership
shall show new vaccination scars.

Failure of Street Car Conductors

was becoming almost painful. Finally a
suburbanite nudged his neighbor and
asked him why he didn't stand up.

By this time the humor of the situation
