Isn't Your "Good Time" Here-Right
Now?

In the October Woman's Home Com.
panion Charles f. Jefferson, pastor OF
the Broadway Tabernacle, New York
City, writes most entertainingly about
"A Good Time" Following is an ex-
tract:
"When happiness is missed it is be-
cause it has been sought in the wrong
way. The most common of all the
wrong ways of seeking it is to run
after it. It is queer universe in which
we are living, and life has many para
doxes. There are treasures which, if
they are to be gotten, must not be too
ardently pursued. They will come of
themselves, if one keeps his feet in the
path of life. Much depends on putting
first things first. Woe TO the man or
woman who places a good time at the
top of his list! He will never get it.
Paradise shapes itself only in minds
intent on doing the will of God. One
can say of happiness what Charles v.
said of fortune: Fortune hath some

if she be too closely wooed, is common

to be handed to us. Happiness is not
a cake winch can be passed over the
counter to any person who asks for it..
We speak of giving good time to chill
dren. We take the boy to the circus,
OF the girl to the seashore, where she
makes pretty things in the sand. But
good times such as these are possible
only to children. Grown-up people can
not receive good times from others.
Each must create his own. Happiness
is an affair of the heart. It is an art
of the inner man. Many a woman who
is now moping would be joyful if she
had set out as a girl to be the archi
tect of her own happiness, and had not
formed the habit of expecting others
to give her good time. Happiness
is heavenly plant and it blossoms only
in gardens cultivated and cared for by
their owners.

make upon it. To Vermont it,
means that every legitimate in
terest in the state can come to
this bank at any time, and for
large sums, and be promptly
supplied.
Only few weeks ago the,
Hyde Park Savings Bank was
carrying the entire outstanding
short-time notes of the state of
Vermont, aggregating 100000.
1t is true that this loan paid the
bank only 5 per cent. while very
large quantities of presumably
good out-of-state paper was at
the same time being offered to
the managers of the bank at
per cent. or more. This fact
shows conclusively that the Hyde
Park Bank seeks the safest and
best gilt-edged paper it can find,
even though it has to accept a
low rate of interest thereon.
The Hyde Park Bank is to-day
carrying for the other banks of
Vermont, paper aggregating
more than S294,7S5, not dollar
of which pays the bank more
than 5 per cent. interest. Posi-
bly, other banks may criticise
this line of investment and call
the managers of that bank fools =
because they do not seek loans
paying a higher rate of interest.
But when you ask these banks
why it is that the depositing
public prefers the Hyde Park
Bank, and why it is that in the
last fiscal year the average de-
posits in that bank exceeded the
Withdrawals by nearly $1,000
for each business day of the
year, they will, if honest, confess
that the partially for the Hyde
Park Bank is because it seeks
absolutely safe, low-rate, rather
than high-rate, paper and be-
cause it so utilizes its funds as
to take care of every Vermont
interest from the state of Yer
mont, borrowing 100000, down
to the humblest borrower who
may want only $500.
The people of Vermont who
deposit in savings banks are not
seeking, as place of deposit,
The bank which earns the largest
for its stockholders,
out rather the bank that keeps
abnormally strong, and at the
same time best cares for, every
Vermont interest, industry and
enterprise.
If strong bank pays the very
highest rates of interest to the
lepositor-and the Hyde Park
Bank does, paying A per cent,
compounded semi-annually, pay
ng all taxes-it follows as nat
lrally as night follows the day
hat the preference is given to
he bank which is conducted
long the safest and most con-
ervative banking lines.
Should anyone care to pursue
his line of thought further they
re cordially invited to address
he president, Carroll S. Page,
r the treasurer, F. M. Culver.

COURT RULES ON
CHIRKA CHILDREN
Murderer Seems Willing to
Part With Brood.

The Lake county board of guardians
have been awarded the custody of the
Chirka children of Indiana Harbor,
whose father, John Chirka, is in the
county jail for the murder of their
mother a week or so ago There are
four of the children and the papers in
the case were filed by Miss Mary W.
Lindley, secretary of the Associated
Charities of East Chicago and Indi-
ana Harbor, in the name of the board
of guardians. The hearing was before
Judge McMahan in the juvenile court
and Chirka seemed more than willing
to surrender his motherless brood to
the board
Chirka has little property. he hav-
ing been making payments on the
home he and his family occupied and
part of which was rented. The entire
building, including the basement form
erly occupied by the Chirkas, will now
be rented. and the income derived from
the property is likely to be little more
than enough to continue the payments.
The Citizens Trust & Savings company
have been appointed agents to look
after the property.

Lowell. Ind, May 23.-Fifteen school
boys from the eighth grade TO the

jury in the Lake Circuit Court at
Crown Point yesterday to testify
against Chas. Russell of Cedar Lake for

were entertaining seniors in the school

School Athletic association members
will be held tomorrow morning at the
high school assembly room before the
commencement Of the athletic meet at
the fair grounds. The association will
be reorganized and the new officials
elected for the ensuing year. 1t is
said that an attempt will be made to
hold the meet in one of the north
county cities, but 1t will probably fall
by the wayside as the county seat Is
the ideal place for holding such con-
tests an account of the excellent track
at the fair grounds. With Crown
Points improved transportation facili-
ties there is no need to make the
change. The latter reason always was
cited as the cause for any agitation or
effort to take the contest elsewhere.
but the reason will not hold good any
more.

view to this $1,000 has been verbally
pledged by petitioners. according to of
fcials OF the association.
Nine hundred names are on petitions
already in from both side of town.
About forty were present at the meet
ing and each one pledged himself to
get ten more signers among among
neighbors and friends. 1t appeared
that the canvassing has been sort of
haphazard thing cared for after supper
or on Sundays At least the chairman,
Louis Heckleman, said that whole
streets have been neglected. No one
has taken a petition into East Ham
mond or Conkeyville.
East State street. west of Oakley, is
almost unanimously opposed to the
deep sewer, according to the petition
ers. If so the pros say it is for pure
lv selfish motive. Fearing that bust
ness will get away from them and the
balance of State to Calumet be built up
thus shifting the center of the district
they favor the antis.
The last of the anti-meetings is
scheduled for Monday night at the
Lincoln school The campaign on the
south side is over as far as rallies are
concerned. The two associations pro-
pose to have 1900 names to present
to the board.
