The Chicago whip. (Chicago, Ill.) 1919-19??, 1920-10-09

NJ OSEY was making very good
" attempt to get home before Il
- o'clock the other morning and
had made one OF those short cuts thru
the alley between the streets. He
heard the scramble OF feet and mum
Bile of voices ahead of him and halted
fearing the ever present hold-up man:
But no. it was only the better hall OF
family moving under the cover OF
darkness from the second story of an
apartment building that faces on
Grand Blvd. in the 35th block. The
gentleman had departed rather hastily
from appearance and stood shivering
in the cold in his B. V. DIS while the
other half OF the family threw out
his coat and trousers. These land
lords may be fierce but there are
others that arc a little worse.
~ CERTAIN occasions; certain
l hotel proprietors have been de-
- tected listening in" on the
switchboard TO telephone messages
passing between and the outside. This
practice is not only highly improper
but smacks OF a desire to interfere
with other peoples social intercourse
or to be able 10 discuss other peoples
business and social affairs Such con-
duct is reprehensible TO say the least
and sometime or other the good pro-
prietors will get an earful about them
selves and their hotels.
GONE fine people who were doing

Stunning" came near having
heart failure when they were in cab
aret last Saturday night. A waiter
saw fit to hit patron over the head
with near beer bottle for some
remark he made. Due TO the lack OF
exits the refined society people had
to witness the fight in all its disgust
ing aspects. Nosey saw that they
feared that there would be pinch
and they were busy thinking up names
to give so that their identity would
not be known. When the disturbance
was over the Summers" slinked out
and they will think again when they
want to see the sights and the doctors
who escort these visiting ladies' will

II FFICIENT and competent legal
talent proved the savior of the
day on Wednesday morning in
the morals court when the brilliant
young attorney succeeded in convinc-
ing the Judge in the Morals Court, but
not Nosey himself. that the society
girls caught in the recent raids on
houses OF immortality were there only
to study the social conditions rather
than as participants of the 10Y fats
themselves. Well. the girls got away
with it and didn't even have to give
their right names, but Nosey got their
right names and their correct ad-
dresses. From now on, girls. watch
your step and when you want to
Stun do it with men OF your own
race.
" ES, the cold weather was here
Y Nosey could not sleep because
his false teeth were chattering
in the glass OF water where he keeps
them every night But, when the sun

sharpened his protruding nose and
played peel-a-boo all day long. He
peeked into many pawn shops and
saw those butterflies who had danced
all summer pawning their perfectly
good summer apparel in order TO gel
the old overcoat back into gear. Nosey
saw many others making their way
to the stock yards and making appli
cations for position in the boiler
rooms. Cold weather brings grea
changes.
