The first time l ever saw Mr..
Bryan-or shook hands with him,
was in my home town-and he was
stepping forward to make a Chau-
tauqua speech. He had returned from
Il European tour, and his address
circled around what he saw over

and things over there. [ confess to
some disappointment. He had been
nominated three times as Democratic
candidate for president, and [ sup

was in the state department at Wash

the same week, perhaps the next
day. He was so busy-that I had
to wait a considerable time. I had
written something on the suffrage
question and L brought along
copy 20 be presented to Mrs. Bryan.
I have always been great admirer
of the lady. I feel sure that history
will write her up as a most capable
and remarkable woman. I waited
very patiently in a reception room
until Mr.. Bryan came in. He had sent
me word by a messenger not to go,

anxious to have a little interview,

MARY MEPEDITH'S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME

1 am coming to you for little
advice. I married when sixteen.
My husband and I parted one year
ago and I haven't got a divorce yet.
Should I go by his name or my old
name? Should I go with boys? Do
you have to get divorce in the
same state that I was married in?
Would it be any harm for me to
have anything to do with my hus-
bands people?
SOUTHERN DAISY.
Answer-You should use your
husbands name as long as you
remain married to him. You
should not go with the boys if
you are not divorced. You do
not have to secure a divorce in
the same state in which you
were married, but in all other
states you will have to live there
for a certain specified length of
time before you may file suit for
divorce. If you like your hus-
bands people and they like you,
7 certainly Sc no harm in being
friendly with them.
I am a girl of fifteen. I have blue
eyes, dark brown hair and medium
complexion. go with boy of nine
teen. Is it all right for him to hold
my coat for me to put it on, and
for me to hold his coat? Is it all
right to pull the shades that are over
the windows all the way down when
you have caller and close the doors?
Is it all right to go riding Sunday
afternoons?
A GIRL IN TROUBLE.
ANSWERED. is all right for
the boy to hold your coat for you,
but there is no reason why you
should hold his for him. The
shades should not be drawn down
and the door should remain open;
it is customary for it to stand
open. You are too young to go
4" riding with the boys unless there
are other boys and girls and
some older person along.

Tin Can Is Ideal
Holder for Strinu

An accumulation Of string is an
unsightly thing, when left open to
view, but is likewise a household
necessity. A charming solution to
the problem is the use of a dis
carded tin can with a removable top.
Cover the can with bits of cretonne
pasted on, and invert it, using the
removable top as the opening at the
bottom through which to put in a
ball Of string. Center of the top
(the original bottom) an end of the
string may be drawn, ready for use.
A patent has been granted for a
device featured by a sort of three
handed clock dial to indicate the
day of the week, day Of the month
and hour when a man absent from
his office will return.

Of the automobile outlook for 1921.
Mr. Herrington stated:
i look into 1921 with a great deal
of optimism. The chart OF prosperity
as early as February VIII show the
line gradually rising. There IS every
indication that 1921 will be year
of big business. The automobile In
dustry will get an enjoyable share.
The automobile of bygone days was
clacsed luxury. Modern condf-
tions have changed the classification

no apprehension as TO the future. Of
course there is a temporary lull. but
II Is only the slack that makes it pos

MORRIS BACK FROM
STATE MEETING.

Henry l. Morris returned yesterday
from indianapolis where he attended
the meeting OF the executive board
and labor committee of the association
OF Building Contractors of Indiana. he
reports a very interesting meeting
Reports was received from all over
the state. The present outlook for
building is not very encoura ging and
I. IVES the general opinion that there
would have to be a marked reduction
in the price Of both material and la
Dor before any great amount of build
ing could be done, as owners would
not invest in building at present
prices. Several matters for the better
ment of the building industry were
acted on.
The open shop proposition was dis
cussed by the labor committee, but no
definite action was taken at this meet
ing.
The next meeting will be held at In
dianapolis. Feb. and at which time
the state convention of building con
tractors will be held.

report brought out of the mills by EN-

ACCIDENT
MAY REVEAL
BOOZE SUPPLY

With the arrest OF gar II. Parker,
a Detroit, Gary and Chicago whiskey
runner" as the result Of an automo-
bile accident in Gary early last eve
ming. new light Wall be shed in the near
future on the liquor traffic IN Gary and
other cities of the county, according
TO the Gary police today.
Travelling east on Fourth avenue at
a high rate of speed. Parkers big Nit
chen "whiskey" car crashed into a
machine driven by Ingwald Moe, at the
crossing at Broadway, damaging Noes
car to the extent of $3.50. Parker was
taken to the police station.
It was while Parker was arranging
settlement for the damage done to Noe s
car inside the station that several Of
ffcers made an examination Of the Nit
chell car in front Of the station and to
their surprise found dfty-four bottles
Of bonded Canadian club whisk-.-. 1t
vas packed in suit cases and sacks al
ready to be distributed to its respective
customers.
Conhscating the whiskey. Parker was
placed under arrest and questioned Ad-
ditional evidence led TO the finding of
more whiskey which was found in a
Madison st. garage later in the evening.
Federal agents at Hammond were no.
thed Of Parker's arrest and together
with the whiskey Parker was taken to
Hammond.
According 10 a police officer today.
Parker's arrest will lead to other ar
rests and the breaking up of a whiskey
ring that has been in existence in Gary
for number Of months. It is also
understood that Parker has confessed
and the arrest Of several Gary resi-
dents. one of them an agent for the
whiskey rims. Will follow shortly.
According TO Parker's confession. he
received in the neighborhood of 500
for every trip he made from Detroit
TO Gary and Chicago and had it not
OF been for the smashup at Fourth ave.
and Broadway. he probably would still
be running booze. Parker was deliv-
ering liquor orders when the accident
occurred it is understood.
Police officials and federal agents
seemed reticent about giving any in
formation regarding the Parker arrest
and is occasion TO believe that they are
expecting to disclose startling evidence
relative to the "Whiskey Ring" very
shortly.
Parker gave his residence as 7s6 4
Michigan ave, Detroit.
