Monday is no time TO find out how a

fact was impressed upon me a dozen
times.

Self made men, however, with or
without union labels and opulent
watch chains straining across expan-
siVe Walstcoats, were not to be seen at
leisure at that hour OF the day, and
/ was obliged 10 step inside the bust
ness houses to find them. l found
many But they had no time for idle
chatter.
In every case they were busily en-
gagged; a certain we'll known jeweler
had just stepped out to deliver q quGrt

informed me that he never earned a
dollar in his life. Everybody knows
it, and if you wrote up my first collar
the joke would be on me. I'd never
hear the last OF it,
He Did Earn Some.
However. we have il on the best Of
authority that this same banker did
earn a dollar, and lots OF 'em, and
that the first money he pulled down
was in brickyard-mixing clay under

first dollar secrets, I was forced TO
seek elsewhere, and chose the J. NJ. s.
building as prolific of "reminiscences.
The j. NJ S. Building is a hive Of self

of making and a few but half done.
nevertheless, 1t is a fine f1eld for re-
search. And still my baG luck pur-
sued me.
In a door TO door canvas found
the same conditions existing as did on
our collapsible thoroughfare. Every
one seemed to be busy. One dentist
was extracting ten dollars worth Of

TO tackle him. Il was c. p. Drum

because once, in a moment of tenn
pOiary alteration Z wrote a story Of
an encounter G. Z. had with an alli-
gator, and what's more, l printed it.
1t seems through some oversight on
my part the story was greatly eXag-

hear anything from c. 7. on that
story, l expected to any minute-and
/ expected a brick along with il to

doubted whether G. p. Drummond
would be inclined TO take me to his

dollar.
My fears, however, were unground-

He never even mentioned the alligator.
He Sawed Wood.
G. Z. Drummond did not earn his
first dollar planting corn, peace to his
soul. He sawed wood, on q fifty-fifty
basis in partnership with Jerry Clark.
I'VE lived on a farm near Argos. 3"
began Mr.. Drummond. inserting a fin
ger in a ponderous law volume to
mark his place and gazing out upon
the landscape of house tops. and
living on a farm, I didn't have any
chance to earn real money. Every
thing I did was paid for in board and
clothes. But l wanted some money
that L could handle, and finally pre-
vailed upon mother to let me cut tim
Der on the place and sell it for stove
wood.
81 got Jerry Clark-a lad my age
about IL, think-to help me, and we
sawed and chopped and hacked and
split, and wrangled about who was
doing the most work, and along to-
wards supper time we managed to
worry out a cord of wood suitable for
the market. Next day we hitched up
our team and hauled it TO town and
sold il from the wagon. Got dollar

How many cords did you produce %
well, we must have delivered-let
me see. Oh, 1 couldn't say just how
many. But there were enough. After
a boy has been wrestling all day with
green wood like that, he begins to see

Editor News-TimeS:-Wou you
please inform the taxpayers on E.
IsaSalle av. why there is no light on
the race bridge. The only light we
have comes from a saloon. There
is dangerous places west of the
bridge.
Why was not the Michigan Central
railway that runs its tracks in the
electric works property compelled to
give the right grade on their track
west of the bridge? The property on
the north side of the street jars, as
the city cars go over the tracks. The
city will have TO pay damages some
day If il is not seen to, as several
people have fallen on said tracks.
Why is the electric company allowed
to run a sewer in the race where a
little property owner is compelled TO
tap the sewer. and said company has
moved filthy barn at the corner of
Lasalle and Bridge SITS? Their
manure pile is almost on the side
walk. It is a nuisance for residents
of said street.
Why is a policeman allowed to tell
men on election day To go Unto side
doors) or through restaurants to get
drinks?
Hoping that the new administration
will do some housekeeping at the
city hall and put some women on the
police force that would soon Hnd out
who the lawbreakers are, having the
betterment of the city and its young
people at heart.
