BUGLES AND JET SOW
C POPULAR WITH YOUTH

Buglcs and Jet which have always
been associated in our minds with
elegantly gowned old ladies, are now
seen ornamenting fiippsut evening
frocks and youthful ooiffures. It must
be really nice for the bugles and jet
TO have this cheerful change of on
vironment, and they are very efoc-
tive.
Seen in a decorative fringe on tilmy
evening frocks the bugle is lovely. It's
graceful. pearl-like body lends itself
admirably as decorative adjunct
to the gown and the mournful charm
Of the jet but enhances the fairness
of the youthful faces when worn as
pendant earrings and upon blond Golf

IN AND AROUND GARY.

A review of the past few weeks and
a prospectus of events scheduled to
happen in the next few days in and
around Gary exhibits bsuy state of
affairs. If newspaper men have been
slow in doing. their Christmas shop
ping it is because the kaleidoscope
whirl of events have left them but
little time for such things.
OF political history much has been
written. The printing presses have
groaned under the columns that have
been embalmed in type. 1t took too
much black face type to tell about
the week just passed. AS usual Col.
II. w. Englehart, patron saint of
Ridge road, cane in hand and sport
ing new Stetson plug hat appeared
before an admiring constituency. The
colonel consented to let his name to
be used in connection with the demo-
cratic ticket thus lending dignity to
his party and possibly adding to his
income If he should chance to be more
successful than he was the last time.
| 1t was at Hammond that the near
martyrdom of Alderman M. N. Castle
man took place. For some unknown
reason Judge Reiter, when the dis
| tinguished statesman appeared before
him, persisted in rubbing salt into
wounds that had been received while
battling for the pe-pull. From West
Hammond the December zephyrs car
ried the news that Miss Virginia
Brooks might come over the Rhone
and fight the Gary vice dragons
Zybysco has come and gone, the doc
tors war continues apace with The
lpig-tail revolution in China and Dos
Cook of North Pole fame is booked
at the Orpheun to tell how he did it
The bankers have dined and If loans
! Iare easy there is a,reason.
Just what that future, which il
J near but still far away enough t,
cause the fog whistle to be sounded
will bring is not known Yet 1t can
not we believe, bring events an,
more interesting.

THE EDITORIAL BANKER.

The tender solicitude of a certain
Gary banker-editor for the banks of
the municipality would move the
heart of hickory nut. BY all means
let us have all possible suggestions
that will tend to keep other banks
out of the city.
Last week this paper carried a
story that South Bend financial men
were contemplating the establish
merit of a second national bank in
Gary thus giving the city seven bank
ing institutions. Of course our
neighbor, with his well-defned finan-
cial connections did not deny the re-
port which came from the best OF
sources, but said that 1t was not
credited in Gary's Wall street.
Realizing that in laying ourselves
open to the charge of being anarchists
radicals and the good Lord know:
what, we of the common people hopg
that South Bend capitalists get more
interested in Gary than they are now
They and the golden Golfers of st
Joseph county will be welcome, TO
Gary will wax all the bigger, pro
viding the gold is started this way
We oppose the theory that it won
hurt any if too many clothing store
or printing offices are started i
banks aren't included also
Perhaps we might agree with TIL
banker-editor, If, like him, we wer
directors in two of Gary's six banks
We could then certainly work on
editorial pen double-time or at leas
time and a half to thwart the villaiI
Gus designs of possible competitors.
