Three-Mile Road LAW Dnnger.

Three-Mfle Road Law Danger.
One Of the laws which will be al
tackled in the Legislature is the three
mile road law. Legislators in botn
the Senate and the House have their
axes out ready to chop the law full CT
holes. There will be many bills to re-
peal or alter the statute 1t is de-
clared that it is the most burdensome
raw on the Indiana statute books.
There are more friends of the law in
the Senate than in iSe House, this con.
dition being probably due to the fact
that there are i'm the House more farm
ers, men directly affected by the road
law, than there are in the Senate. The
law rs it stands provides that on the
presentation of Il petition for a gravel
road not more than three miles In
length in any one township To the cold
which is signed by fifty taxpayers, tie
road shall be ordered built by the COM
missiOners. The entire expense of the
road is borne by the taxpayers of the
chtiIe lOMhShip III NuiSn tue iodu u
constructed, although many of these
taxpayers assessed never use the high
way. Enemies of the law. in many in
stances, say that should the number of
required signers to any road petition
be Increased to 100 much of the objec-
ton to tie present law would be re-
moved. EAemies of the law also say
that it is not right that the taxpayers
Of one section of the township zhou.d
pay for the construction of a read in
another section when they get no ad-
vantage from it.

Life of the Shop Girl.

The small-town girl, driven from her
town by the financial collapse Of her
family or else by the birth of a spirit
of independence In her own mind, with
no home except her handbag and no
support except her courage, advances
to the center of the stage in large
city to make good. She has a mans
problem. She gets woman's wage.
Six dollars a week. How will she live?
The ready suspicion crosses your mind,
the yellow suspicion of yellow sociol-
ogy. Don't adopt it too lightly. Watch
down to pass her six-dollars-a-week
novice period in a girls clubhouse, says
Everybody's.
She sleeps in room with three 9th
er girls. She pays 1910 week for
her bed, her breakfast and her dill
ner She gets two sandwiches and an
apple for cents when she leaves the
club in the morning, and she consumes
them at noon in a store lunchroom along
with a cup of coffee. She doesn't send

dry. She washes them in the club
laundry at tub rental of cents an
hour. When her absolutely unavoid
able expenditures for room, board, Cur
fare and laundry have been met, she
has S1.65 left. For new clothes, she
hunts bargains In materials and does
her own manufacture, after working
hours, on the club sewing machine.
For books. magazines and newspapers
size uses the club reading room and the
circulation department of the free pub
lie library. For amusements she joins
q singing society and attends the free
concerts and lectures with which the
winter season of every large city is
plentifully sprinkled.
These really self-supporting girls.

To Change city Classification.

To Change City Classification.
Senator StOtsenburg has introduced
two measures. One related to the
classification of cities. 1t takes South
Bend AID Terre Haute out of the third
class and puts them in the second
class, leaving New Albanys Muncie and
Anderson i'm the third class. No other
change in the classification of cities
is made, and there is no change in the
law in so far as it affects cities of
the FIRST and second classes. In cities
OF the third and fourth classes, the
bill abOlishes the office of city control
Ter. city judge and Board of Public
Works. 1t contains a provision, how
ever, that any city of the third and
fourth classes desiring such offices and
departments can have the same by SO
providing by ordinance of the Common
Council. The other was a street inn
proyement bill. 1t provides that i'm cit
les of the third and fourth classes
whenever a street is ordered improved

ton of the necessity for the improve

writer was fortunate enough to be al
lowed a peep at the trousseau of a
well-known society girl about to be
married, and there was the smartest

three magnificent white plumes fast

tachment was covered with a choux of

Introduction of new bills, and plenty
of them at that, was the chief bust
ness in the Senate Tuesday. The ses-
sion was called at 10 o'clock and adj
journed at II o'clock. Thirty-three
new bills were introduced, besides two
resolutions. Lieutenant Governor Hall
was in the chair and was assisted by
former Lieutenant Governor Miller and
Senator Wood, president pro tenn. in
getting the routine business of the Sen
ate Strengthened out. New bills pre-
sented included about everything from
a measure for the protection of skunks
and fur-bearing animals to bill pro-
viding for the guaranty of bank depos-
its. Two measures were introduced
providing for uniform accounts in
county and township offices, and for
the inspection of such offices, one by
Bland and the other by Killing.
