THE DRUMMERs FIGHT TIPPING

On New Years Day the CONNER
cial Travellers National League began
their campaign against tipping. They
say it will be a week or two yet be
fore the strength OF the movement can
be estimated
1t is to be feared that the drum
mer is a "tieht-wad." He shoulo
know that it is, hot enough fox him
to pay the full sum agreed upon rs

employees. His family at home of
course do not need ;ha money.
At Least many pep1i' scent to lCok
at it thus. But some OF us still think
the tipping system bears heavily on
hard working people who need the
coins quite as much as the hot,i
proprietor or his servants.
1t also puts one up against a most
disagreeable alternative. II you don t
tip. YOU feel you have treated a hard
working and low-paid person un-
kindly. If you do tip, YOU feel You
have been the victim of graft for the
benefit eventually of the hotel pro
prietor
The system develops a flock of
hungry craws, who practically force
you to pay them - cents for getting
a postage stamp of the hotel clerk
when YOU would much rather walk
up and buy it for ;Wo cents.
You can get three or four heavy
grips carried about any railroad ter

be kept in limits. it would work
fairly well. The dime or quarter has
such astounding results in making
the faded waiter jump. that it often
seems to pay as a timesaver.
But a host of people besides the
drummer desire to know the price of
a service in advance, they do not want
and also they are philosophical
enough to wait a minute or two
longer for their dinner. Such are
hoping that the commercial travellers
will succeed in getting good hotels
started based on the principle of fair
wages and no tips

The Wrinkle Maker.

The time that YOU got angry-and a
very good excuse,
You had to tell the man just what
you thought
You evened up completely for his
meanness and abuse
You got all the revenge that you
had sought
Gut then it left a wrinkle running
down between your eyes.
An an2er,line that years will never
fade,
That man will feel your language
till the very hour he dies
But-was it worth the wrinkle thai
it made?
The time that you We're worried over
what you feared might be
A needless worry, after all, you
found
For days and days the world was
iangling fiercely Off the key,
4 And there was neither cheering sight
4. nor sound.
F\nd all that left its wrinkle, carved
its story firm and deep,
For worry has an art that's true
and deft.
You had lot OF useless loss of ap-
petite and sleep.
And-was it worth the wrinkle that
it left?
. The time that YOU were busy-you
w had something big to do,
You plotted and You studied and
YOU schemed
You held your place. determined that
you'd drive the project through,
Until you'd dared and done ali that
you'd dreamed,
And now the wrinkle tells it, and
the heartless wrinkles trace
The stories we would rather none
should find.
Where's something sort of sou'.ess-
wrinkled down into your face.
Was all that worth the wrinkles left
behind?

KE|FER CONNECTS
WITH PIPE LINE
ZERO WEATHER CAUSED PEO.
PIE OF TOWN TO TAP PIPE
LINE FOR FUEL.

Oklahoma City, okla. Jan. l+.-Poo-
pie OF kelfer, a town near the Glen
Oil pool, in Creek county, took
chance in the cold last night and
hooked on to the gas pipe line of the
Central Light and Fuel company,
which passed through their town.
The company draws part OF its sup
ply at Mounds a town south OF kei-
fer, and serves municipal consumers
in Sapulpa, During the cold snap
several days ago the company's tcp-
resentative disconnected and request
ed that the performance be not re
peated. Request was made to the
company for service and the allcGa-
tion is ii was denied.
Last night when the thermometer
went to zero and below, ignoring the
injunction of the fuel company, the
Keifcr people hooked on to the pipe
line again.
To-day brought telegram to the
Corporation Commission relating these
facts and asking whether or not they
could be punished in the courts for
having made the connection. The
commission answed that il was OF the
opinion the company should have fur
nished the fuel when consumers offer
TO pay the regular rates, and added
that prosecutions for the offense
cited could not be maintained.

CLUB NOTES

Grand Forks Times: The convention
Of the North Dakot Federation of
Women's clubs was adjourned this
morning in time to allow most Of the
officers n delegates from the southern
part of the state to leave on the noon
train. Mrs. N. @. Young, Mrs. r. NJ.
Pollock. Mrs. J. H ]Shepperd, Mrs. C.
f. Amidon, and Mrs. G.. ii. Hollister of
Fargo were in the party n Miss Min
ME j. Nelson, Mrs. Frank White, and
Mrs. Otto Zetterberg of Valley City,
Mrs. Minnie c. Budlong of Bismarck.
Mrs. 7. A. Boyden of jamestown and
several of the delegates. Perhsps few
realize that the delegates who come to
this annual convention had little time
that they might call their own. The
annual business of the federation is
immense and from the time the sessions
opened at $3.50 o'clock in the morning
until 5 and $3.50 o'clock in the after
noon, their presence at the church was
demanded. For this reason the diver
stons provided for a few minutes re-
spite were much appreciated by the
visitors. Wednesday and Thursday
afternoons the church hostesses COM
mittee assisted by a great many of
the ladies of the city served tea and
waters, during the entire time tina the
convention was In session. This pleas
ure was enjoyed in the church parIors
which are so coy and richly furnished
and some of the ladies who looked
after the pleasure of the visitors were
Mrs G E Templeton,. Mrs. S. S. Titus,
~ SoIOLiSI y MTS, M, r. MUIR
ply, Mrs. II. NJ. Wheeler, Mrs. r. d.
Campbell, Mrs. F. L, Goodman, Mrs. G.
n. Williamson and Mrs. H. M. Cook.
The DECORATIONS committee always kept
the parlors CHEEKY with baskets Of
lovely flowers. Yellow chrysanthemums
prevailed and were p~rettily arranged
with autumn leaves. A bank Of palms
and ferns added charm to the presiding
othcer's platform and jardiniers of fall
blossoms were used generously. The
musical numbers rendered each after
noon, too, were much enjoyed treats.
Yesterday afternoon Mrs. r. g. Harris
OF Cando and Miss Genevieve Meacham
favored with a duet singing In the
Garden of My Heart. Both ladies
possess. voices of unusual charm and
were warmly received. Another place
where the cares of the convention could
be laid aside for while was in the
exhibit rooms of the church where the
arts n crafts department had its dis
play. This truly was well worth de-
voting many hours to. This exhibit
has never been so complete as last year
and was evidence that women's clubs
really do things in that line. Several
cities were represented in the exhibit
and the work was done by members of
women's clubs, pupils at the state
school for the feeble minded, the Flor
ence Crittenton home, students at the
Sacred Heart academy at Fargo, and by
students in the ceramics department. at
the university. Mrs. II. c. Mccartney
of Cakes, chairman of this department,
and Mrs. E.. r. Chandler, chairman of
the local committee deserve much Gre
dit for this feature.
