THE FAMILY CIRCLE.

In his Saturday Short Burrows"
Abe Martin of the Indianapolis News
mourns the disappearance of the old
time family circles, memories OF
which often have come back to him
during this long hard clustering
winter Abe longs for the old time
family circles that he used to see
through the windows as he trudged
through the snow in the streets. Abe
says:
"Ther' awuz mother an tn girls
an father an tn boys. all huddled
around a quart lamp with green
shade in the settin' room, with real
content written all over 'em. Mother
knowed where her children wuz
then, an father wuz content with
only one lodge. Ever'buddy knew
what t. do with 'emselves in tn ole
| family circle days. Father had tn
easiest chair on the side o. tn two
leaf table an read Pilgrims Progress
er talked T. mother while she quilted
err set tn buckwheat. Emmy made
| wax flowers er worked notices while
Alice got her algebry er sewed. Bob
an Henry played checkers on tn
! floor err poured DER tn pages o.
Daniel Boone er Robinson Crusoe.
Their wuz a big thick bible on til
table, too, with tn leaves cut. Ever
buddy wuz at home where they be-
ionged.'
| After presenting this picture OF
| charming domesticity Abe strikes out
at these feverish days of woman
clubs, cigarettes. lodges, autos, thea
tire going, and lodges. Nowadays it,
Kenneth playing with his wooded
blocks and the hired girl gossiping
over the phone, mother attending 3
| suffragette meeting, Violyette gig
Cling her head off at musical show
with a struggling clerk. Edythe away
visiting, Harold is away in college
preparing himself for light work
father Is not available to anybody
and Clarence hasn't been seen FOL
two days.
Then Abe winds UP with his little
quip that nowadays the family never
gets together unless there is fun
eral-and even then there is Away,
one missing.

KEEP OUT BEGGARS.

Chief of Police Joseph D. Martin
of Gary has begun war on beggars.
He takes the position that these
mendicants from Chicago have no
right to force charities from the
citizens of Gary.
Chief Martin is right. He knows.
as does every other police chief of
experience, that the beggars who in
wade the region on paydays are pro-
fessionals.
Every police chief in Lake county
should boot the beggars out!
That many of them are no more
in need of charity than some of the
high salaried officers Of the steel
company's plant at Gary. He knows
that the liberality of the American
people makes begging one of the
most remunerative of occupations
and that Chicago is infested with
hordes of them.

TO THE NEWSPAPER CRAFT.

The following is an inquiry d.

paper craft; but, since it is often
claimed that everyone, however
lacking he may acknowledge himself
in other pursuits, is competent to
run a newspaper, grocery store and
the government, we let the public in
on the consideration of the following
quandary. A general expression of
opinion in the following matter
would doubtless be appreciated by
all news workers says the Lafayette
Courier.

DEMOCRATIC NEWSPAPERS.

In speaking of the fewness of goot
democratic papers the Joliet New
says:
Here Democrats is the answer
why your newspapers do not wear.
You have as much intelligence in
your party as any, you have as
much religion, but your newspaper
men are of a class by themselves.
They sneer, make cynical com
ments. are unfair to anything and
everything not wearing the party
label and the ribbon of their par
ticular clique. They carry par
tisanship to an extreme, and be-
yond reason or the common belief.
Their papers emit a hollow sound
so to speak. something not pleas
ant to the nerves.
