BIG HAT SHOWS VALUE;
SAVE BEAUTY'S FACE
Girls Head Goes Through Window;
Not a Scratch.

Fort Wayne, Ind, Feb. 24.-Thanks
to fashionably millinery, Miss Bertha
Schroeder escaped facial disfgure-
ment and possible serious injury when
her head was thrust through one Of
the windows of a street car, sending
the shattered glass flying in every d.
rection.
The car on which she was a passen-
ger was crowded and rounded a curve
so sharply that many of the standing
passengers lost their equilibrium. Two
or three of them lurched against Miss
Schroeder and her head was forced
through the window. A shower of glass
fell about the young woman, who IS
rather pretty, but the protection Of
her big hat saved her from serious
injury.
The big hat, however, was totally
ruined

SAID TO BE
"DAFFY" AT TIMES
Faithfully,
J. E. MATHIS.

Cambridge, Mass, Feb. 24-Dr Owen
Copp, who has just resigned from the
Massachusetts Board of Insanity to
take charge of the Pennsylvania Hos
pital for the Insane, says that every
one at some time in life is on the verge
of insanity.
There are extremely few families
which survive for three or four gem
CITATIONS without the outcropping of
some case of insanity" he said. "And
again there are few men or women
who pass through certain portions Of
their lives which are so severe as
nearly to drive them out of their minds
without feeling just a touch of mad
ness. All of us are on the verge of
insanity at some time or other dur
ing our lives, although we may not
actually pass over the fine line which
drawn between sanity and insani-
ty."

CLUB FUR AMERICUS TO &
CLEAN UP The CITY
"Tidy Club" the Suggestion
Of Mayor Mathis

Times-Recorder:- wish you would
organize a Tidy Club" among the
young folks of Americas, getting them
to subscribe to a pledge something
like this
I'VE, who are soon to be citizens
of Americas, desire to have her pos
sess a name which is above reproach.
And we, therefore, agree to keep from
littering her streets, and as far as
possible, prevent others from doing
the same, in order that our city may
be as clean as she is otherwise pretty
and as pure as she is fair"
Then let them resolve that every
Saturday they will sweep the side
walks and pick up the loose rubbish
in the block in which they live.
After they have done this a few
times the older ones will be willing
to help, too. Perhaps the grown-up
men would come out of the postoffice
strowing wrappers, envelopes and dis
carded circulars all the way to their
place of business no more.
Wonder if they will not commit 70
memory and make the men folks do
likewise, the following lines:
There are tin cans near the doorways,
Neighbor mine;
Pray be mindful of them always,
Neighbor mine.
If you're not devoid of feeling,
Quickly to those tin cans stealing,
Throw in each banana peeling.
Neighbor mine.
Do not drop the fruit you're eating,
Neighbor mine,
On the sidewalk, sewer or grating,
Neighbor mine:
But lest you and l should quarrel,
Listen to my little carol;
Co and toss it in the barrel,
Neighbor mine!
Look Whenever you drop paper,
Neighbor mine,
In, the wind it cuts caper,
Neighbor mine.
Down the street it madly courses,
And should fill you with remorses,
1t filters streets and scares the horses.
Neighbor mine.
PAPER cans were made for papers,
Neighbor mine.
Let's not have this fact escape US,
Neighbor mine;
And if you will lend a hand,
Soon our city dear shall stand
AS the cleanest in the land,
Neighbor mine.
l an sure that the children feel that
Americas is their city and that they
want to help make it the cleanest, most
healthful city in the world, so let's
begin this Saturday and ask the home
folks and merchants to see that our
stlte cts and sidewalks are absolutely
clean on Sunday morning.
.-..., Faithfully,
J. e. MATHIS.
