TANNING THE UNTAMED GIANT
OF THE AGES.
Electricity Defied by Ajax Now Har.
messed to Operate Milwaukee
Trains Over the
Rockies.

The myth of Ajax's defiance of
Jove's lightning was the expression
for three thousand years of the
worlds opinion of electricity.
Then suddenly, in a few decades,
the terror of the ages was seen to be
the most beneficient and most pow
erful servant of man.
Its transcendent value to the race
is nowhere better eXemplified than in
the electrification of the milwaukee,
Road" for 440 miles from Harlow
ton, Montana, to Avery, Idaho. From
the plunging mountain waterfalls, 1t
is taken and sent along the wires to
the mighty electric locomotives that
haul the all-steel trains of THE
.Olympian" and THE Columbian" and
the long heavily loaded freight trains
over the mile-high ramparts of the
Great Continental Divide. Wheth or
to carry tonnage or to yield the trav-
eler the comforts of smooth, clean
travel, it's enormous power, in win
ter and in summer, is wholly at mans
service.
To the supreme travel qualities of
the Milwaukee, splendid road
bed luxurious gni-
ficent accessibility to sever
al of the National Parks and the re-
nowned personal service Of the en-
ployees-is now added the delights
of electric travel through the very
heart of the mountains.
Take the milwaukee" on your
next trip to the Pacific North Coast.

SAYS EDUCATION WILL
MAKE L0AFER OF SON
Woman objects to Sending Little
Boy TO School Although He
is Not Yet IS.

There was an irate woman at the
police station Friday morning. She
was there to find out why her BOY
could not leave school and go to
work. 1t was explained that he was
less than 16 years old and had not
passed the fifth grade, therefore, he
must continue in school as the law
requires.
do you think want to make a
loafer out of him." she cried in
Hungarian. Hes gone to school
long enough and had all the educa-
ton he needs. If he gets any more
he will never want to work. That's
the way they all do"
The boy in question was a slim.
pale little lad. Those who knew him
said he was not in good health. Both
mother and son were neatly dressed.
After a talk with Pros. Montgomery.
who told her the boy must go to
school or she would be arrested. the
mother left the station, muttering
her disapproval of the law which
compels her boy, as she says, TO be-
come a 'lOafer."

To DISCUSS FIGHT
FOR CHEAPER Gas
South Bend and MiShaWaka
People Called to Mass
Meeting tuesday.

Mayor Fred w. Keller and Mayor
Ralph Gaylor have called a mass
meeting Of citizens OF South Bend
and NushawaIs 70 be bsi6 Tuesday
night IN the council chambers of the
south Bend city hall 10 discuss the
eQht being waged for lower gas
rates in the two cities. The an
nouncement OF the mass meeting
was made here Friday morning by
Mayor Keller after a conference
with Mayor Gaylor and the South
Bend executive urged that as many
citizens as possible attend the SEES
sion.
At the present time there is a pc
titi0n before the Indiana public uul-
tiles commission asking that val
uation OF the property and assets OF
the Northern Indiana Gas & Elec-
trio Co, be made and the gas rate
set. This petition was filed with the
commission two years ago but is
still on file, other matters having oc-
cupied the bOdy's attention In the
meantime. Mayor Keller pointed
out Friday morning that the COM
inission has been very busy, being
flooded with similar petitions but
believes that some action can be Sc
cured in the near future. He COM
mented graciously upon the manner
and time spent upon the electric
light question by the commission.
I'VE want 20 get the sentiment of
the people Of South Bend and Mish-
awake regarding the fight for lower
rates" Mayor Keller explained. He
inferred that unless the administra-
lions were given some token by
which they could be assured Of sup
port that the effort for lower rates
would be allowed 20 remain dor
mant.
''The gas rate in South Bend is 81
net" he stated. I'm Evansville and
Fort Wayne 1t is but IS cents. In
Terre Haute II IS 90 cents and in In
dianapolis IS cents"
There has been considerable agi-
tation for a long time regarding a
change in the gas rate and the &C
ton taken by the commission in the
electric case has permitted the
South Bend men to hope for a lower
charge from the Northern Indiana
Gas & Electric Co.

SUGGESTIONS FOR
DIPLOMATIC SOLUTION

Mexico City, July s. Several
prominent leaders of the de facto
government met at the national cap
ital today and it is understood here
that preliminary consideration was
given to the suggestion in the latest
note from Secretary Lansing that the
Mexican government propose some
practical plan thru which the diff
culties now existing between the
two governments might be solved.
While the meeting was secret, it be-
came known that two plans we're
considered. One plan calls for a
telegraphic conference with direct
wires leading from the conference
room in Washington and the confer
ence room in Mexico City. The other
plan was that the delegates of the
two governments meet at some iso-
lated town in the United States, pre-
ferably summer resort, to discuss
plans for joint action.
1t is said that none of the con-
ferees expressed any objection to
holding the conference in the United
States, and it is believed when de-
cision is reached, the plan for d.
rect meeting will be adopted.

plan on disposing Of the vessels
