The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-05-19

chew now on some of that parboiled
stuff in The Day Book. These old
dodgers, you know, along the Shore
for years got all their thinking direct
from the Tribune. Now they're an
buying self-starters of their own.
Say, it's hard to sleep nights now.
You can hear 'em thinking. I'm
afraid The Day Book has spOilt these
North Shore suburbs. The Tribune's
very best" people live here, you
know, and now they're all getting
headaches. It won't do at all. Some
thing must be done to stop this Day
Book epidemic. No use to fire BERTHE.
For the mischief's done.

CONVICT REFUSES TO TAKE A

Davenport,

Davenport, Ia, May 19.-Harry
Beacon, 35, alias Smith, an escaped
convict from the Illinois state prison
at Joliet, H., balanced on half inch
scantling ninety feet above the
ground and drank a small bucket Of
beer. Losing his balance, his life was
crushed out on the pavement where
he fell. He had refused to take a
dare from a fellow workman. Bea-
con was an escaped burglar and had
been working here for a year under
the name of Smith.

Editor Day Book:-Help! Help!
Telephone Central 100 for the
wrecking crew! They've begun to
read The Day Book in Wilmette and
Evanston and it's spreading. Send
for old Doc Evans and see what can
be done. The New Trier Township
High School in Kenilworth is going
to throw out that "quack" hygiene
course so carefully planted there by
the Tribune, and it looks as if the
school will become respectable again.
Help! It's all the fault of The Day
Book .
Here's how it started. BERTHE Tay-
lor Of the Tribune. You know Ber-
tie lives in Glencoe in the summer
time. But you's got to pronounce it
the wrong way or you can't get
stand Gin" with BERTHE. You must
accent it on the Glen" Well, Ber-
tie. He's the vogue you know, in the
summer time in Glengko. BERTHE
produced a Day Book one afternoon
on the four-fifteen train. BERTHE sits
in seat by himself Only few eX-
piped The Day Book at once. 1t was
so unusual to see BERTHE reading
such a coarse-looking production.
BERTHE runs to class, you know. But
they got wise to the rough stuff that
BERTHE was reading in The Day Book.
And now it's all off.
Might as well forget to send any
Day Books to Rogers Park, Evanston,
Wilmette, Kenilworth, Winnetka,
Hubbard Woods and GlengkO. Be
cause the BERTHE fans all buy The
Day Book now from the newsstands
before they leave the loop. You
don't know BERTHE. Last summer he
started a Shaw epidemic and the
summer before an Oscar Wilde. Just
