The Boston Store was the object
of two personal injury suits yester-
day. Neither was mentioned in the
loop press. Both accidents happen

Mrs. Katherine Kohler was shop
ping in the Boston Store one day in
September. She got into an elevator
at the third floor and the machine,
crowded to the. limit, started down.
When it stopped again its sill was
about six inches below the main
floor. The gates were opened and
the crowd behind Mrs. Kohler push
ed her forward. She stumbled over
the sill Of the elevator and was
thrown heavily to the floor. Several
passengers then fell on top of her.
Her right knee-cap was broken and
she suffered internal injuries, her at

Five-year-old James Mcdonald
was riding down in an escalator in

off.
Mrs. KohIer sued for $4,000 and

Good days and bad days exist only in your own

day is what you make yourself Bad weather is only
an unfortunate opinion.
Suppose it is raining ptchforks. You get word
that your salary has been doubled that forgotten
uncle has left you million dollars What do you care
about the weather then? Or suppose the person you
love is dying. Unexpectedly turn for the better
The doctor says your dear will live. What
if it is hotter than tophet? 1t is good day. great
day, happy day.
It's what you think and feel about it that makes
each day what it is. You within yourself can make
each day good day.
When you get up in the morning. throw back your
shoulders and take deep breath. Meet the new day
like man. Say to yourself: another day, another
opportunity" For all we know it may be the only
day we'll ever have. Let's make it the best day we
can Let's strive to see that it is day worth while
Let's move step forward in our work. Let's do all
the good we Let's get all the happiness we can
today.
Right now is the only time you can control. Yes
