Chicago, Sept. 7.-Suit for $1,000

cago Tribune in the United States dis
trict court herestoday. Mr.. Ford asks
for personal damages as compensation
for an editorial printed in The Trib-
une June 13. which, it is charged,
called Ford an anarchist"
The editorial was based on the re-
port that Mr.. Ford's employees would
lose their places if they went to the
border as members of the National
Guard. The bill quotes the editorial
as saying: Ford is. an anarchist
Inquiry at the Henry Ford offices
in Detroit discloses the fact that en-
ployes of Ford who are members of
or recruits in the National Guard will
lose their places. Mo- provision will
be made for any one dependent upon
them. Their wages will stop, their
families may get along in any fashion
possible, their positions will be filled.
and if they come back safely and ap-
ply for their jobs again they will be
on the same footing as any other sp-
plicants. That is the rule Of the Ford

he had to take off his coat, he heard
some loud talking down the road. He
slipped behind tree and saw five
hungry wolves trotting by and looking
anxiously round.

Mr.. Hog heard every word. He trem-
bled so that his big. bushy tail sticking
up through the bushes attracted atten-
ton. for in those days all hogs bad
fine, long tails that were as handsome
as those of foxes.
The hog was very fond and proud OF
this tail, just as the wolf who led the
pack was conceited in regard to his
fine dancing But the tail was the very
thing that got him into trouble. for the
wolves saw it shaking and all rushed
at him at once. They dragged him out
into the road and decided to take him
back to their den. But first they rested
a while under the chestnut tree. Mr..
Hog lay still, thinking, and at last ne
spoke up and said: Mr.. Gray Wolf,

that, and we will have trial"
Sure" laughed the gray wolf till
his long white teeth shone in the sun.

The wolf danced first series of all

spoke up.
If agreeable to you, gentlemen, |

the wolves put him in the center and
all trotted away to the place selected
by the hog, which was really just over
his own hole
Then the hog commenced to whirl
and leap and Jump backward and for

Very smart separate skirts are
shown. not only in sport effects but
also for dressy use. 1t is probable
that this is due TO the popularity of
the separate coat which, in many in
stances, can be developed in a COM
bining color or material SO that it
may be appropriately worn with a
separate skirt. Satin striped and black
and white checked taffeta is used in
the skirt illustrated. While set in
pleats at the york, it flares decidedly
at the bottom. The shirred yoke is
distinctive feature
