IT is UP TO YOU.

The South Bend News states
some truths in the following strik-
ing sentences-as true here as in
South Bend:
If you are a citizen of this town
you probably rejoice in the fact.
If somebody should inslnuste that
you are not a good citizen you
would be insuited and resent it.
You pay your taxes. obey the
laws, approve all movements for
the betterment of conditions in
your home city. you are a church
member. you are honest in your
dealings with your fellows and you
attend to your own business.
This is something, but is it suf-
fcient to establish your right to the
title of good citizenship?
What do you know about your
own city's needs and how much
do you care about them, so long
as you are not disturbed by them?
What are you doing to correct
the evils that are apparent or which
are pointed out to you?
Are you doing your share. or are
you sidestepping your responsible
ty as a member Of the commun-
ity?
This is the real test of good citi-
zenship.

FADS AND FA SHIONS

New York, March 3.-During the past
Few seasons fashion has brought many
odd and freakish things, some even of
appalling ugliness, but these carica-
lures were to be found almost ex-

in the display windows of certain shops
catering to women eager for notoriety.
Women of taste and refinement kept
aloof from the most extreme styles and
in really good society freakish and
outre styles are everywhere tabooei.
Asiode from these extreme vagaries.

as figure is concerned and the corset

ideals and methods and gradually froce

THE THEATERS


Bijou Again Packed Last Night.
The Bijou theater last night was
again the center of attraction with
the Hughes Musical Comedy Company
in 1.-TWO Men From Japan" as the
magnet Whilst there washt the jam
incident to the opening night the
standing room sign was in evidence
all through both performances.
The play, musical extravaganza in
one spasm, proved as interesting as
the opening bill with the musical Sc
lection better than the original play.
The act, with one vulgar exception,
was clean comedy from beginning to
end. The play dealt with the adven-
lures of Jew and a German who es-
capped from a prison in Japan and
made for the first place of conceal
ment which happened to be a hotel
where two renowned hypnotists, Bin
ker and Klinker, were expected The
escaped convicts, who helped them
selves to the contents of the afore-
said professors suitcaes, which
thoughtfully We're sent in advance,
were taken for them and the stunts
that followed were real comical.
AS in the first bill the comedians
were the center of attraction and kept
the audience in laughter the greater
part of the time Dressed in the regu-
lation prison garb lie Blanc and Stan
lope went through many peculiar stu
ations, the Hebrew impersonator as
usual bossing the rather effervescent
German in manner that was very
amusing
c. c. LydstOn, the leading man, took
the part of an English Lord and had
a better chance last night to display
his talent. His acting all through was
perfect and his duet with Miss Ed
wards was admirably rendered. AL
bert Leonard in his song, Goodbye
Manhattan ISLE" put in some fancy
steps never seen here before. This
clever dancer, who was we'll supported
by the chorus, is easily the best seen
here in years. Miss Edwards in the
role of Mrs. Eliza Jones acted the part

entrance was conspicuous. Inside the
pergola lavender was chosen for the
color. A big basket of lavender asters
