And these restaurants are going to allow
some women to shock other women by
putting cigarettes right out in the dining
rooms

signal from the Gallery.
The press agent in the gallery signaled.
and the six from Chicago Uttered.
"R. L. F."
DR. John G. Pease. who wore a clerical
collar. got up TO say that if any restric-
tion was to be placed upon women $
smoking in public, the same should be
made to apply to men as well. He did
net think it decent that men should sit
opposite women in the restaurants and
puff smoke into their faces.
Then came John Henry Smith. who said
he was as plain as his name. He wanted
10 know why there should be one law
for men and another for women. Plain
John Henry had many more unkind
things to say about the honorable Little
Tim
When Stuyvesant Failed.
Alderman Reggie Doull followed with
his blow In the dark
"Old Peter Stuyvesant once tried to
pass an ordinance forcing the women Of
New Amsterdam to wear at least one full
ruffie on their petticoats," began Doull,
and not to dance anything but the shuf-
1e and turn Whereupon the women of
New Amsterdam threatened not to wear
petticoats at ALL And Pete had TO cave
in.
Take warning from Old Pete, Alder
man Sullivan before it is too late
IF we adopt Alderman Sullivau's ordi-
nance we might just as well add to it a
law forcing women TO wear white stock
lngs with their black shoes, or fluffy ruff
fle skirts, or 10 peroxide their hair, or
not to buy strings of puffs 10 pin on
their coiffures."
Anybody else Ike to say something?
queried Chairman Redmond. The press
agent in the gallery waved frantically.
The brunette person in the side-blInd
veil tripped airily down 10 the front She
bent over and whispered to Redmond
Nope" said Redmond shaking his
head. II can't do anything more than
give your name.
BObbie Roberts Says Something.
Miss Bobbie Roberts he announced
loudly.
Miss Bobbie Roberts turned her beam
ing orbs on Little Tim for one full
minute; then proceeded 10 read the speech
the press agent had prepared. 1t was
just an awful slam on New York.
eve Chicago girls" said Miss Bobbie
Roberts think you should pass some
kind Of an ordinance so that We wouldn't
have to jump all over the street TO keep
from being killed by automobiles and
things We get so tired lodging things
that we don't get time 10 smoke, even
If We wanted 10"
Miss Bobbie Roberts did not make any
kind of a hit with Little Tim. He got
TO his feet Immediately. The hot words
bubbed out of his mouth.
Tn Chicago all you have to dodge Is
blackjacks, billes. and bricks said he.
Il don't wonder it is hard 70 dodge
things i'm the clear daylight here when
you have been used to what they Cail

The upshot Of an the talk was that
Little Tim got IL straight from the MEM

report faV0rably on his ordinance. and
it would come before the board of alder
