such horrors as being anything less

are surely offsprings of hell and sa-

Chief Kuespert asserted the greatest
danger is while getting on and off

the squeeze play" In a crowd get

work quickly going through pockets

TO this it is one of the hardest prob

Another thing ia favor of the dips
is the shedding Of overcoats by trav-

from Mexico City 10 Vera Cruz be kept
open and that the city OF Mexico be
neutralized.

RECEIPTS REVEAL
HEALTHY INCREASE
Collections at POStOffiCe for
March Nearly $4,000 More
Than March, 1914.

For the persons who fear that bus,
mess is going 10 the eternal bow
vows. or some such place, there IS
food for thought In a glance over the
South Bend postcfice receipts for the
months OF March during the last eight
years.
The receipts during the last month
exceeded the receipts for the month
OF March, 1908. by $4,000. and eX-
ceeded the receipts for the month OF
March. 1914. by $4,000. The extra
ordinary increase during the last
March over the corresponding month
OF last year came i'm spite OF the fact
that foreign business had been prac-
tically ruined and that parcel post
rates had been made considerably
less. This gain, coupled with q
healthy gain for February. is taken
TO indicate business confidence.
The receipts for the months of
March during the last eight years
