DINNER STORIES


John w. Hutchinson. Jr.. who had
charge of the eastern branch Of the
Taft bureau in New York city. used
to be reporter. That is, he put In
one Of his college vacations In study
ing to be a journalist.
He was one of the Tribune city staff.
Displayed on the walls of the city
editors room in those days were cards
on which were printed in big type the
word Accuracy" At that time there
was line of type on the editorial
page of the Tribune to the effect that
the paper was founded by Horace
Greeley. That line isn't to be founi
there any more.
Hutch" as he was known In the
office. was put on a job in which Mr..
Greeley name had to be written, not
only one but several times In some
way the item was sent up without be-
ing read and the proofreader didn't
catch Hutchinson's spelling. When
Hutch" came in the next day the city
editor was laying ror him. Taking
him by the arm he led him around the
room and pointed out each card con-
tanning the warning Accuracy"
did you ever read these cards ?" he
inquired.
Hutch" thought he had.
The city editor then opened a Ale of
the paper and pointed to the line con-
tanning the name of Horace Greeley.
did you ever see this line in the
Tribune?" asked the city editor.
Hutch" thought he had.
Then why, in the name of Jonah
and the whale, did you leave out the
final 'e' in Greeley's name?' The city
editor didn't use just those words, but
that was what he meant.
well, SIR" replied the adolescent
Journalist, ''Mr. Greeley wrote such a
poor hand that l doubt if anybody
ever knew whether or not there was a
final e In his name"
The city editor looked at him crfti-
cally for moment and said:
You're not a reporter, you're a
funny man. You'd better apply for
a job on Life.
But Hutch" went back to COLLEGE
and when he had finished he studied
law. Now when he isn't practising
law he is in politics for the fun of 1t.

Birmingham. September 26.-7 p. m.)- The pressure still continues high over the entire interior portion of the country. with relatively low local areas along the Mex ican, gulf and Ontario borders Tho pres- sure has increased over almost the en- tire eastern portion of the country since Wednesday night, causing general rain throughout the great lakes, the Ale ghanies, and the central cotton states. This rain is due to the general and de- cided chilling of the air over those sec tions.
 Over the central portion of the Missis- sippi basin and the plains states. tempera- lures have risen slightly and fair weather prevailed Frosts will likely occur Thurs day night over the Dakotas and the north- ern plains states.
 In the cotton states fair weather pre- vailed generally west of the Mississippi and along the Atlantic coast. Tempera- lures have risen from to 14 degrees in Oklahoma and Texas. but a fall of from to 10 degrees has occurred in central states and about 6 degrees in the eastern states

 No doubt you are aware that for sev- eral years past the Orphans Home insti- tutions of the southern states, of all de- nominations, have fixed upon day called Work Day. for orphanage work On this day all good people are asked to con- tribute toward an orphanage whatever they make on that day--the value of their days work. or the income which they derive on work day
 The movement has become very popu- lar in some states. and large amounts are contributed to the various orphan ages. We are trying to make it a feature in connection with our work at Tallade ga Enclosed please find copy of hand bill which We are using throughout the state. We shall feel greatly obliged fl you could. in your columns, make spe- cial mention of this movement.
 The Orphans home at Taliadega is a purely charity institution. deriving all it's revenue from the free will offerings of the good people. It is under the control of the Presbyterian church. but it's work snot confined at all to that denomina- ton. We receive children from all Chris tan denominations. and children of par ents not connected with any church. In fact we have fewer Presbyterians here than any other denomination We feel free, therefore, to appeal to all people for financial assistance We take care of 70 children here in our home
