PAT o.pRIEN MuLEING AGAIN

PAT OBRIEN MULEING AGAIN
There's no living with Pat o'Brien
He has a chronic crouch that he
doesn't seem able to shake off. and he's
about bald worrying over little thing
that no one else ever thinks about for
more than minute. His latest plant
ss that some merchant OF his town sent
to Iron ore for a price on 1900 four
page bills. which was given, and Pat
SAYS It was too low He charged S65
for lob that Iron ore figured $50.
AS TO that. Iron Ore would like to have
q steady JOB printing them at the
figures we gave, and we would give
the merchant a real job OF printing at
that. not mess OF pie thrown into
chase with shovel. OF course Pat
may figure higher on printing than we.
The office that gets poster job only
once In five years naturally feels that
IL has TO ask more than concerns that
do regular printing business and are
turning them out constantly. IL Pat
can get work enough to keep his office
busy at the prices he asks then there's
no wonder he can fool around with
politics. wear diamonds and a 54-inch
belt. But he shouldn't complain Of
the fellows who have to compete with
real printeries and who manage TO
make a living at 1t too. AS we say,
there's no getting along with Pat, he
being so unreasonable And we wish
to tell Pat that we didn't solicit the
business. II he cannot please the
people of his own town with his kind
of printing and his prices we are not
TO blame. The request for prices
came to rs and we replied to it. And
the price was fair one, with a good
profit to real printery that doesn't
depend upon a job month to pay its
running expenses Some weeks ago
Pat spoke about canning factory be
ing established in his town and we
hoped they would get the tin around
him and hold him for a time. Unless
Pat can behave he should be canned.

WAR DEPARTMENT
ANSWERS CRITICS
AVIATION SERVICE
Report of the Investigating
Board Holds Charges of
Inefficiency in Corps 4
Without Foundation

Washington, October S.-The special war
department board which investigated mill
tary aeronautics reported today that its
inquiry not only failed entirely to sub
stantiate allegations of inefficiency on the
part of army officers, but clearly estab-
hshed that development of this branch of
the service lis being conducted with en-
ergy and foresight"
A war department statement on the
report replied to criticisms against the
service which took the form of insured
editorials appearing in the metropolitan
press and in statements signed by Henry
Woodhouse and Allen R. Hawley, both of
the Aero Club of America" and declared
mat as far as this branch is concerned
the nation can view the future with
confidence and serenity"
Inc departments statement SAYS;
The attention of the war department
had been called to attacks recently nude
upon the aviation section of the signal
corps OF the regular army. These took
the form OF inspired editorials apnaarine
in the metropolitan press and in state.
ments signed by Henry Woodhouse and
alien r. HaWley, both or the aero Club
OF America. The charges We're to the
general effect that the development of
military aeronautics was being greatly
mpeded by the alleged inefficiency and
general misconduct of Mai. William
Mitchell, now serving as an assistant 10
Col. George O. Squier chief of the avia-
ton section of the signal corps This
retardation of development, It was
claimed was especially aimed at the
National Guard. The implication was
even advanced that the funds appropri-
ated ~ Congress for the aviation train
ms of the guard We're being utilized for
other purposes
THESE charges were received by the de-
partment with the gravest concern, and
the most searching and thorough invest-
cation was instituted under the imme-
date and personal direction of the Sec
rotary of War himself. This inyesti-
cation is now complete, and it has not
only failed to substantiate the allega-
tons even in the slightest degree, but
has shown clearly that the development
OF this important branch of the military
establishment is being conducted with
energy and foresight When the plans
for the development of military aero
nautics now being inaugurated reach
fruition, as ffar as this branch is con-
cerned, the nation can view the future
with confidence and serenity"

occupation and profession practically, a
diversified crop<of new industries may
be looked for. There are lawyers, doc
tors, merchants, mechanics, baseball play
ers. rough riders, preachers, actors, school
teachers przefighters, farmers, carpen-
ties, so it is said, in the department.
Under Commissioner BARRIERS plan IT
may be possible to have a suit Of clothes
made, cleaned and pressed at one of the
departments. At another the tango, fox
trot and hula hula will be taught, per-
haps. Chairs rebottomed and furniture
repaired will be the speciality at another.
At one of the stations the gentle art of
landing the right on the joint of the
jaw will be demonstrated In fact, you
will be able to get at the fire station
everything from having hole in your
trousers repaired to t-to-order
limousine, providing, of course, Commits
sioner BARRIERS scheme is agreeable to
the firemen. He would have no difficulty,
it is claimed, in getting the consent of
the other commissioners, if through court
esy, he asked their consent
