Once upon time.
when my veins.
Were full OF blue pencil
And I Slaughtered brain throbs.
On g copy desk.
There was an onice boy.
We called "sensslsss"
And we always thought.
His head was eburin.
which is a composition.
OF ivory and cement
And one day.
He wandered.
Out of the onIcs.
With q piece Of copy.
About a big murder.
That was marked Rush"
For an extra edition.
And he never came back.
And often I've N..dered.
What became of "ssnseIess.
And II he was.
Still carrying that copy.
Or had become a movie star.
Or a magazine editor.
And so the other day.
To my great surprise
''sanseIess' came around.
And called on me.
In big dashing racing car.
And he had diamonds.
And carried matches.
And everything.
And l asked him.
How he did it.
And he told me he was.
A genealogist
And I said: That's nice"
Like I knew what It VAS.
And he said he wanted.
To prepare a symposium.
For my family.
And l told him.
l didn't think they'd like it.
They never went in for.
Fancy dishes.
But stuck to pie, meat
And simple foods like that.
And "senseless" laughed.
And said he never thought.
There was 80 much ignorance
In all the world.
And l humored him along.
Cause 1 knew he was.
A little bit nutty.
And was chased up a grape arb,
once.

Where would the roses be?
And where the blooming tree?
All winter long they've borne

also demands that we guard our health, our energies. our labor, our very lives; that we should put more efficiency in everything we do.
 Our president, in his inspired, w5r message to the people said: Tt is evident to every thinking man that our industries, on the farm. in the shipyard, in the mines, in the factor ies. must be made more prolific and more efficient
 The way to accomplish this is for the people to buy and use the mer- chandise produced. Business cannot grow and remain healthful unless the whole people buy as usual and keep money in circulation.
 America will show the world that a war built on the principles of right eOusness and freedom need not inn poverish the people or stop the wheels of industry.
 America will prove that prosperity can go hand in hand with war when waged with clear headed intelligence.
 The American people will continue to need food and clothing. They will not give up the luXuries of life. They win continue to buy motor cars and stocks. Theaters and baseball and other amusements will go on. All these must be supplied as well as fighting

livery is much quicker than shipping iv freight When 1he car leaves the factory you know approximately just when it will reach it's destination. There will be no annoying delay in congested freight yards and, further more, there is no danger of rough handling of the car in loading and un- loading.
 Poor roads alone stand in the way of overland delivery of automobiles. With good roads campaigns assuming greater proportions each year. it is reasonable to hope that the time soon will come when the road situation no longer will be an obstacle ill this d- rection. Besides the state and county good roads support there is the ever increasing aid given the movement by the federal government.
 In 1916, there were built under the supervision of federal authorities ap- proximately 561 miles of road fifteen feet in width, according to the annual report of the office of public roads in the department of agriculture. The roads included in the total are exper- mental roads, county roads and roads

Maurice O'Neil of the O'Neil Auto Auto company, Phoenix agents for the Chalmers automobile. is in receipt of an interesting article from E. r. Morse. vice president and general manager of the Chalmers Motor Car company of Detroit. which deals with the present business condition of the country. The article is as follows
 The worst thing that could happen to the world right now would be business depression in the United States. With the country prosperous, with business dull, money tight, either through fear or false economy, would be as calamity.
 War in itself does not cause business depression. Billions of dollars have been appropriated by congress for war preparations. This great sum of money. put into immediate circula- tiOn in this country, will create new wealth for use in the world struggle for humanity.
 It would be tremendous error to halt business now through an unpa- triotic feeling of panic and a mistaken idea of patriotic economy.
 Patriotic economy calls upon all to eliminate waste and extravaganza. it demands that we conserve our food products. and our natural wealth It

They offer an almost unlimited variety of trailers, because they have already developed practical, successful trailers for each of many industries. Their engineers study the problem for the industry and then de- velop and manufacture the adapted de- sign. For some time they have been building four -Wheel-type trailers ill all sizes and capacities. The trailers are built along designs similar to the best of motor truck construction.

 In doing his bit to help, every indi- vidual should labor, more now than has been his custom, in every line of industrial endeavor. The greater tax of labor imposed upon us by the un- usual conditions of the present hour necessitates a greater activity and greater efficiency on the part of every individual in order to meet these ex traordinary conditions Caution is warranted, but we should buy goods and lead the lives we have been accus- toned to- Factories must be kept go- ing to their full capacity. Labor must be kept employed. Our homes must be kept up. We must cheerfully pay war duuies in addition to usual peace du- ties and expenditures.

The old fifth wheel wagon steering apparatus is not practical on trailer that moves faster than wagon speed, any more than the steel wagon tires will stand the blows of the road at the normal speed of a truck; therefore, they have developed a ballbearing, rigid. adjustable steering apparatus which works directly on the steering or parallel rod of their specially designed front axle. With this steering device their trailers must follow directly in the path or ruts of the ear pulling it. Roth two wheel and four wheel models are all standard tread

 DRIVE NAY PLAN
 ARE NUMEROUS

The 4,103 driveway shipments of mo- tor cars made from the factory of the Willys- Overland company at Toledo. in the early months of this year, fur nished convincing evidence of ad- vantages of that method of automobile delivery from factory to dealer ac- cording to II. H. Hotchkiss, local Willys- Overland representative.
 In January. 903 Willys-O Overland cars were driven overland to the deai- CTS: in February, 1058 were transported in this way and the driveway ship ments increased to 2142 in March.
 With reasonably good roads on which to deliver the new cars 1t is said that the driveway method is most desirable substitute for freight delivery and that it will be common practice in the future, irrespective of freight conditions.
 Up to a few weeks ago, the drive away method of delivering automo- piles was regarded as simply the only alternative in getting the cars to the dealers when freight cars were not available" said MT. HOtchkiss. "To- day. the leading manufacturers have awakened to the fact that there is Of ten distinct advantage in the over lana system ol uellNeiy diiU iii'tii!

 Tn the first place, the overland de- livery of a new car furnishes an ideal warming-up process for the new mo- tor. Actual service on country roads, in the hands of experienced drivers, is the best sort of treatment for the mo- tor fresh from the factory. All of the working parts thereby are fitted for the task which they are to perform and when the car is delivered to the buyer they work more smoothly ii possible, than on the day they left the factory. smsA Tn the second place, overland de-

IN JAIL MONTH,
CAN 7 TELL ACE
Charles BOden Being Held
Pending Word From Fed
eraI Authorities.

Failure Of Charles Boden. being
held at the county Jail on violation
Of the draft law. to give his correct
age when arrested by the South
Bend police on a charge Of intoxica-
ton, is causing him TO spend many
DAYS and nights in a cell.
Boden wants 10 be released so that
he can go 10 work. he says. The gov
eminent evidently thinks otherwise,
for he has been held at the county
Jail since oct. 3, pending an investi-
CATION OF the charge Of attempting
TO evade the draft Law by failing TO
register.
The police picked BOden up Oct.
in an intoxicated condition. When
arrested he said that he was 30
years old. Upon his failure TO pro-
duce "a registration card, he was
turned over 10 the federal authori-
ties. Boden says that he is from
Harrisburg, Pa. He now gives his
age to the county Jail authorities as
81. and again ne claims 10 be SO
years old.
Soon after ne was arrested a gov
eminent man visited South Bend
and the case of Boden was looked
into by him. The county Jail au-
thorities were instructed to hold him
pending further investigation. Boden
now claims 10 have a letter from mis-
mother stating that he is 80 years
old.
After men arrested on charges Of
violating the draft law are turned
over by the police to the federal
authorities, the eases of such men
are removed completely from the
jurisdiction Of the police. Prisoners
are held subject to the instructions
of the government, the latter paying
Tor the board of such men while
confined in the county Jail.
A government officer is expected
in South Bend within a few days.
and Boden's case, along with those
of several others, will doubtless be
given the attention of the govern
ment man.

HAPPENINGS IN AND ABOUT TOWN
Stacker Search
Cuts Attendance
InLocal Saloons

War times are making il exceed
ingly hard for youths who would
tread primrose paths
10 il now very difficult for a young
man under p years old 10. pass him
self off as having attained his ma
jority. This is all caused by the law
which provides that men between
the ages Of p and 81 who are not
wearing the uniform Of Uncle Sam,
10 carry a registration card.
So nov when young men pass
themselves off % the bartender as
being II. IN order 20 secure the Sc
ductive cocktail, or other like con
coction, they are liable to have a
policeman step ~ and ask 20 see
their registration card.
Failure 20 have the card causes
them no end OF trouble. and IL is
said that at least the number Of
young men under the age OF p,
who frequent saloons. is much less
than il was before the draft law
went into effect.
Many young men are getting into
trouble from an entirely different
cause in regard to the draft law.
Many OF them in securing employ
ment misstated their age, giving il
as 81. Then when police or gov
eminent officers investigate their
cases on the ground that they are of
age but have failed TO register for
the army. they find themselves in
trouble.
Several instances are cited here in
South Bend where young men under
the necessary age have been asked
TO produce their registration cards
through being frequenters OF saloons
and poolrooms. These young men.
IL rs said, experienced much trouble
and embarrassment in explaining
satisfactorily the absence OF the
cards
At any rate, IL is said that the
number Of young men under the age
OF Il who frequent saloons and pool
rooms, has greatly diminished since
the search for slackers began.
