Puggie felt confident. He was sure
he could speak his piece all right,

Doris was Puggie's best girl. She
was In the grade next below. He
had heard that it was barely pos.
sible that the pupils in her grade
might be allowed to come in his
room during the exercises.
The last day of school arrived,
and Puggie, after a final rehearsal
before the mirror, was sitting
proudly at his desk. His mama was
there, and lots of other mamas, but
who is afraid to speak pieces in

Then. just as teacher rang the
bell for order. in filed the next

The Curtain on Mas Hat.

Mas pulled down the parlor curtain
and she wears it on her hat
Gee, but she is lookin stylish. Has
EN- all beat in our fiat
She has sort of let it dangle. so you'd
never see her face
If you didn't peek up under when the
wind blew out the lace.
Pa don't. somehow seem to like it; he
came home the other night
And kept lookin' at the window, as ii
something wasn't right,
When he asked about the curtain and
ma showed him what she'd done
What he said to her was plenty-and
it wasn't said in fun.
Her new hat is like a bucket or bas-
ket INSIDE down.
And you never could tell whether she
was white. or black or brown;
Nearly all her face is hidden away NJ
inside her hat;
Just her chin sticks out below and the
curtain covers that.
Lord" pa said, what won't woman
do to try to be in style?
suppose you'll get to wearing the
old carpet after while;
IL your face is so blamed homely thai
you hate to have it seen
Why don't you wear asmask or hide Il
with a decent lookin' screen?"
Ma appeared to be disheartened; sh,
had done the best she could,
But it was her fate, she told us, al
ways to be misunderstood.
Though II ought to be much brighter
things are dismal in our fiat
Since took the parlor curtain ant
arranged it on her hat.

The young girl was taken down with

ing there was a sudden change for
til her death occurred. She was con-
scious to the last.

East Chicago he called upon Mayor
Schlieker, with whom he was eloseted
for some time.
When seen by a TIMES man he not
only expressed his opinions regarding
the local situation, but touched upon
national affairs. With reference to the
revised tariff he declared himself of
the same opinion as that held by Cum
Minis of Iowa, namely, that the poor
est tariff that the republicans could
promulga would be better than the
best the democrats could devise along
the line of the old motto, Tariff for
revenue only"
In regard to the now famous Taft
letter, Congressman Crumpacker ex-
pressed himself as in perfect accord
with the views therein set forth.
Aside from politics, Mr.. Crumpack-
er found time to look around the two
cities and note the progress that has
been made since his last visit. While
he said he had expected to find some
improvements, taking into considera
ton the progressiveness of East Chi
cago and Indiana Harbor, he was
amazed at the amount of work tina
had been done, the number of build
| ings erected and the number of streets
| improved etc.

The news that former Captain Catey

about. Catey, with Officer Peter Juric
and several others were discharged
from the service several. months ago
by Chief Martin. Since that time officer
Juric has been put back, on the force
and is now acting as court bailiff.
