Some handsome charts and calendars
were issued last year in Toledo, giving
the names Of the heads and subordi-
mates In all the city offices of Toledo.
These adorn the business houses and
offices Of many professional men and
city officials, Gays the New York Times.
AS one was hanging in the mayors
office, Mayor Jones attention was
called to it. It contained, in good sized
type, these words: Hon Samuel NJ.

Mayor Jones was criticised in curl
GUS manner for his failure In his last
gubernatoriaI campaign, says the Phil
adelphia Saturday Evening Post
Mr.. Jones was a musician Of consid-
cradle talent, besides big manufac-
turer and popular politician. When
he was running for the mayoralty Of
Toledo he wrote two songs and sang
them himself in Golden Rule hall, an
institution Of his own. where musicales
are given free for the benefit of work
lngmen ana their families.
At meeting in that same hall a
labor advocate said to him: Mr.. Mayor,
In my opinion you lost this last election
because you didn't write songs and
sing them az you did the last time you
ran for Office"
