divided support as the grand worth
president of the Haul-Me- Home

Mr.. Allen is that he is not always
inclined TO go straight home. but

not be used against him in his race

The Tower of Babel

We wish 10 announce the estab-
Hshment Of a new club in South
Bend. This city is practically with
out clubs and an organization such
as we propose will fill a long felt
want The club, as we plan il. shall
he composed exclusively of automo-
bile owners. and shall be known as
the Haul Me-Home club The only
requirement 10 belong to the organ

seat in your car and that the ma
chine be sufficiently seaworthy 10

has been proposed, but it will prob
ably not be started for some little
time as yet The auxiliary shall be
known as the Haul Me Tow Ork
club. We are never in any partic-
ular hurry TO get 10 work, so the
auxiliary is not so badly needed at
the present time and no effort will
he made TO encourage its establish
ment until the Haul Me-Home club
has been established and is well on

The city administration organ
is in a position now 10 90 ahead

pretty much all. that Mayor Car
son and his cabinets.-and chief
Kline, and his braves.-have been
doing since they went into office:
Al least get a line on the various
avenues OF rottenness. and where
they lead TO.
We released IL 10 them Sunday
morning. IL became their prop

need do is TO pry IL loose If they
can. We started with il the day
that Mayor Carson went into Of

pretty well up 10 the minute. All
our contemporary need do is to
uncork tiff IL has not under

Much of il has been useless to

pervision of Gods Own Party
no difference how rotten it's NOR
ais. shouldn't be defamed-partic-
ularly by a newspaper not Of that

politics. and politically con
sidered we have no complaint.
Mayor Carson is giving South
