Editor Times:
I would like to say q few words
in regards to smoking on street
cars, The men who smoke on cars
are mostly workingmen who can
not smoke in shop or store and
usually take the~ longest ride on
cars to their homes. and at that I
have never seen them smoke when
cars are crowded with women.
Mrs. Horace @. Scott and Rev.
f. L. Benedict could put their time
to better advantage investigating
the sanitary conditions of working
mems homes and hotels which are
in a great many places filthy. Still
they will kick If some one expec-
torates on a street car or side
walk. Every time I see one of
these signs 1t makes me think of a
delusion.

Editor Times:
There seems to be quite q lot of
talk lately about men smoking on
street cars. I think it IL a shame
that women have to work so hard
to get a law passed that will stop
this nuisance. A man must be
very selfish who will sit in a car
crowded with so or 60 passengers
and have them all choking with
the smoke from his pipe or cigar.

smoke why not before he gets on

CALLS GARY SCHOOL
SYSTEM PERFECT ONE

Washington, c., Nov. 1.-The bureau
of education of the United States gov
eminent has found the perfect school
system. 1t is located at Gary. 1t is
there that Young America is taught not
only how to work but to play to the
best advantages.
The school system at Gary will be
discussed at length In a forthcoming
report of the bureau of education. COM
piled by Henry c. Curtis. who is a rec
ognized authority. The Recognized
School Playground will be the title of
the ~~port.
An advance copy, furnished to news
papers, contains the following refer
ence to the Gary schools:
Only One of It's Kind.
THE only school system that know
that is approaching the maximum of
use is the one at Gary, Ind. In Gary
there is q play teacher in the yard or
gymnasium from s o'clock until o.
clock every day and from until $3.50
each evening, thus giving a daily use
of the playground ten and one-half
hours each day for six days week and
all through the year. 1t is probable
that the next ten years will sec the

team for championship honors in the
lightweight division, will travel to

Manager O'Brien, who looks after the
interests of the Gophers, predicts o

will accompany the team are anticipat-

A BIG CROWD.

The largest crowd which has yet at
tended the fair at st. Mary's school,
East Chicago, turned out last night.
The hall where the booths are located
was damned most of the evening. but
this did not prevent the horde of
chance book holders. paddle vendors,
etc, from operating. They wedged in
and out through the crowd with the
greatest of ease. considering its dens-
ity and sold chances on everything un-
der the sun from a crocheted tidy to
diamonds.
James English. the chairman of the
event, was everywhere in evidence. as
was also Mrs. Jesse Dewey, who had
charge of the willing Workers. and
everybody did a rushing business. Faith
err aLuer seemed indefatigable. He
managed to shake more hands than it
and attend to the great amount Of
other business he had on hand.
The country fair in charge of Messrs.
O'Niel and Dewey was a winner. Hun
dreds patronized this getting more and
more interested in the dollars worth
of groceries for a nickel' which were
efficiently ballyhooed by Mr.. O'Niel,
while his equally hustling partner
secured the hal for purchasers OF
chances, who might not have known a
bargain sale OF groceries was in pro-
gress had he not tipped 1t off. The
candidates were out in forces as were
their workers and these helped to swell
the gros receipts.
Among the winners Of valuable
prizes last night We're the following;

yards at different times. Superin-
tendent Writ has worked out at Gary
an admirable system to meet this
condition. There are no recesses In
airy. but the first FIVE grades each has
two periods of forty-five minutes in
the yard every day. This is under the
direction of a regular physical instruc-
tor and is is devoted to organized
games. Gary has six-hour school day,
from s:45 to IL and from lis to 4. OF
this one and one-half hours are spent
in the playground or gymnasium during
the first FIVE or six years. After that
there is one period of physical instruc-
ton a day until the eleventh grade is
reached. but in the remainder of the
course there is no physical training or
organized play except after school and
in the evening.
"The children left to themselves play
little. This may seem very radical
statement, but 1 have gone over cit
les repeatedly with notebook IN hand
and watched what the children were
doing I found nearly 30 per cent of
loafing to 10 per cent of play. To de-
to organize play would be almost a
pure gain in itself, and would also tend
to establish a habit that would be eof
great value all through life. II there
is any justification for gymnasium in
the high school. then organized play
in the elementary school requires no
justification and the school can efford
to furnish the time for IT,
