SELF-CONTROL A BOON.

'There is no virtue in driving youl
motor car successfully on a road wher
there is nothing in sight I heard a
father say to his daughter recently. and
the philosophy of the remark sank into
my mind, writes Rosanna SCHUYLER in
the Washington Star What he meant
was that there is no merit in doing
anything when there are no obstacles
to be avoided. This is true. L is only
when we have accomplished something
by foresight, judgment or self control
that we are entitled to credit
A comment of woman during the
excessively hot weather brought the
first to my memory again.
81 practise self-control, or try to.
IN summer more than in WINTER she
declared. "Hot weather gets on nv
nerves frightfully, and my inclination
IS to be snappy. l gave way to it, and
was disagreeab bic, until I realized that
L affected every one about me in the
same way. From chamber to kitchen
all were disagreeable. I saw the
the original fault was mine and, as I
got no satisfaction out of being snappv.
l have made point of controlling my
temper, and we are a much more
pleasant household. 1t is not easy. but
1 do it, and that is the main thing -
That woman had learned one of the
big lessons of life She has driven her
motor car with a big obstacle in the
road. to revert to the remark Of the
parent If every one gave way to snap
piness when he or she felt like it there
would be many a collision on the road
of life. The woman who controls her
temper steers around an obstacle
achieving a successful course. 1t is by
no means necessary that any one shall
know she has done this The fact that
she has supplies its own inner glow of
happiness. While an encouraging pat
on the back is pleasant, it is not essen
tial.
The simplest mind can get along
easily when all conditions are favorable,
and it is not at all to the owner S cred
it to be pleasant, but the girl who,
through tact, prevents friction through
the day, who controls her nerves and
temper so that she aids instead of ir-
ritating other. has accomplished a lot
toward character building. Somehow it
is harder to do this in summer than in
winter Wherefore, the more credit to
her each time she keeps herself in hand
now.

girls at shore and mountains.
Sleeves for tailored costumes are
tighter than ever, and are finished with
stitched straps, braiding or turnover
cuffs.
Ribbon run insertion continues to be

possible keep them so far as you can
in one color or in related shades, and re-
strain always any leaning toward over
elaboration-and there you have your
chic, modishness. call it what you will.
All is not ended there. however. Even
a good. well-made gown will be spoiled
by overdressing in hat or accessories;
the mere carrying of bouquet, the fit
of glove. the addition of ruff or a
veil where it is not needed will kill all
the beauty of the costume. Study your
self carefully and as a whole; consider
yourself as if YOU were your own dress
maker-as, indeed, many of us are-and
aim always at the utmost simplicity
compatible with your style and manner.
Thus may you be accounted chic.

BONBON CUPS MADE
FROM PAPER NAPKINS

Very attractive little cups for ices
or bonbons may be made IRON paper
napkins if one wishes to 1ecorate a
luncheon table inexpensively or TO make
attractive the sweetmeat booth at a
summer bazaar. The making of these
charming little cups is entirely a mat
ter of folding, no stitching or FASTING
being necessary, and the work takes
only a moment. There are Gow so
many designs in paper napkins that
one may make "A selection pretty u,Uch
according to one 5 own fancy, but for
the paper cups it is better to have a
design that encircles the napkin or
covers it nearly all over rather than
one which is only in one or two corners.
Flower bordered napkins are especially
good for the cups.
AS paper napkins are somewhat IT,
regular, it is necessary at first to get
the center accurately by folding the
handkerchief catercornered and then
catercornered again. Then unfold 1t

The first fold that you make after
getting the center in the manner de

handkerchief in to the center, leaving
the decorated side out. Then turn the
handkerchief and again turn all the
corners in toward the center. Without
turning over the handkerchief turn the
corners in toward the center for the
third time. Then turn over the hand
kerchief again and turn the corners Ut

The folding is now all done. Tt

THE SECRET OF DRESS.

Women often ask what makes one
dress stunning and attractive, while an
other of perhaps the same material and
the same general cut vet lacks that
elusive touch that marks the well-made
costume. The secret is in simplicity.
Given a gown well cut and of good
material and color. there IS no reason
why the smart effect should be lacking

trimmings and color contrasts and gro
tesque arrangements. and vou present
only an overdressed and unesthetic ap-
pearance. Trim your clothes as little as

Thursday night near the Pennsylvania
station was continued this morning
pending the condition of the injured
man.
Pazel is now confined to the Mercy

Z Now comes the report that maple
syrup will be short this spring. Small
er flap jacks for next winter.
Still so far nobody in Gary has had
the nerve to walk down Broadway with
chanticleer hat.
The Gary Post also agrees with for
mer TIMES story that the Chicago Rail-
ways system are laying plans to annex
Lake county traction lines.
FOR SALE-One poolroom, only
slightly used; nearly as good as new;
can be used for chicken farm or would
make an excellent place for a charity
ball. Reason for selling. Nothing do

Vegetables, it is said, will kill thirst

Slids have been placed in storage and
Gary children are now taking up their
usual amount of space on the sidewalks
with their roller skates.
Neither is 1T healthy for spring to
come all at once.
Thursday it will be especially appro-

DRINKS
RIDE IN NEW

South Chicago Man Is Given
a Treat and Has Honor of
Being the First to Ride in
City's Flossy New Hurry
Up Wagon, on Saturday.

His name is James Town. and he
hailed from South Chicago, but his
fame is not based on either of these
facts
1t hinges on the fact that he was the
first man to ride in the new auto patrol
upon the imperative request of the
bluecoats. TOWN arrived in Hammond
last night, carrying goodly load of
intoxicants internally.
Officer Pohlplatz, although a new
man on the force, realized his duty at
glance and summed the patrol. Frank
Shine, the official chauffeur. was at the
wheel and came changing down the
street with due amount of speed and
dignity and soon the South Chicagoan.

Fined for Trespass.

John Marigeo, an 18-year-old Polish
boy, was heavily fined in Judge Mayo's
court last Saturday afternoon on a
charge of trespass.
For the past two weeks the Gary
Land company have been troubled with
foreigners cutting down timbers on
their wooded lands. Not satisfied with
stealing the timber. the foreigners have
of late been cutting down telephone
and telegraph poles, and, 1T is said.
many have been taken in this man
ner. A careful watch was kept and as
result Marigeo was caught in the
act of chopping down the poles. He
admitted the charge and received a fine
of 500 and costs and was given a SEN
tence of thirty days in jail. The boy
was taken to the Crown Point Jail this
morning to serve his sentence.

DREOGES
SOON WILL
RESUME JOB
Especial to THE TINES. J

Especial to THE TIMEs)
Indiana Harbor, March 14.-It is now
but matter of a few days before the
dredges, which have lain idle since they
completed their task of deepening and
widening the canal to a depth of fifteen
feet and width OF 100 feet, will re-
sumo their work. The dredges have
been thoroughly overhauled since they
put up for repairs, and it is expected
that the work once resumed will go for
ward with great speed The proposition
now is to go right over the course
traversed within the past year, increas-
ing the width of the channel to 200 feet
and its depth to twenty feet, and when
this shall have been completed there
will be nothing left in the way of turn
ing over the entire canal to the govern
ment for It's maintenance SO far the
private enterprise which financed the
great undertaking. the East Chicag O
company, is concerned.
The dredges will go through the Chi
cago avenue bridges, the South Shore
the road and the terminal on Wednes-
day night after the midnight hour, on
their way back to the turning basin and
they will be ready for work by Mon
day. March FL

Moved to Hammond.

Robert Law, who has been employed
on the police force of this city and
on the Gary & Interurban Street rail-
way, and who has lived in Gary almost
since the city was founded, has moved
to Hammond. where he has accepted q
position with the Chicago City Rail-
ways company, running out of Burn
side. Mr.. Law was in Gary Saturday
bidding farewell to a number of his
friends. During the time that he
served on the police force Gary went
through one of the worst periods OF
crime that any city has had to contend
with. and Law always acquitted him
self creditably.

AGITATION IN CALUMET RIVER
DRAINAGE STARTED ANEW

The Chicago Tribune has a very COM
prehensive article on the question of
the reversal of the flow of the Calu
met river to the drainage canal in
setad of to Lake Michigan. The article
covers the situation so thoroughly that
it is reprinted in full below:
Agitation in favor of the PROPOSE
ton of the sanitary district to con-
struct a drainage channel connecting
the Calumer river with the main sani-
tary canal has been renewed with Wig
or. despite the fact that the war de-
partment recently refused to permit
the sanitary district to take from Lake
Michigan a maximum of 10000 cubic
feet of water per second.
B Believing the health and the general
welfare of the people of Chicago and
its environs depend in great measure
upon keeping Lake Michigan free of
sewage, the advocates of complete
sanitary system of sewage disposal
have determined to carry out the CAL
umet project, regardless of opposition.
The shipping interests of the great
lakes thus far have succeeded in pre-
venting governmental approval of the
scheme
The international waterways COM
mission reported in favor of allowing
the district to take a total of 10000
feet of water per second from Lake
Michigan, and a similar report was
made by Major Thomas H. Rees, in
charge of the United States engineering
corps at Chicago. But Secretary of
War Dickinson turned down the re-
quest of the sanitary district, which
was based on these favorable official
reports, and has said he will do moth
| ing in the matter until congress shall
have acted.
Major Rees Answers Objections.
| The main objection to the taking
/ of SO much water from the lake said
| Major Rees. has been that 1t would
| lower the lake levels about six inches
| and decrease the lading draft of YES
| sells in harbors that have been con-
structed on the great lakes at great
| expense to the American and Canadian
| governments. 1t has been objected
/ also that the flow of so much water
| from the lake through the Chicago
and Calumet rivers would increase the
| rapidity of the river current to. such
] an extent as to endanger navigation
1T is true that the lake level:
| would be lowered about six inches, ani
that the loading capacity of big vessel.
