Newspaper reporters find it increas-
ingly difficult to run down the news
happenings of a community. The COM
ings and goings of people are not so
easy to get as they once were. Once
the reporter haunted the railway sta
ton and picked up much of his new
matter there. But the station no long
er yields up the personal mention i
once did. More people travel by auto
than by train and SO personal event
the gonigs and comings, escape tn
eyes of the news gatherer.
That makes it all the more import
ant that readers turn in their news
TENS at the newspaper Office. Tha
is the only way to insure that a men
ton of something interesting which
has happened in or to your household
is duly chronicled.

Oldest Chicogoan Is
Mayor for One Day

CHICAGO, June 25.--Ferdinand
Peck, Chicago's oldest inhabitant,
realized his growing ambition the
other day. He became mayor Of
Chicago. His term of office was the
shortest on record--one day--under
appointment by Mayor Thompson for
twenty-four hours while the latter
was out Of town.
Although short, Mr.. Peck's stew
ardship Of the city's affairs was very
sweet. He issued just one order dur
ing the twenty-four hours, which was
to the chief of police, as follows:
"Chief, let the town run wide open.
This vice reform stuff doesn't make
any hit with me-"
Following this up, he telephoned to
one of the numerous clubs of which
he is a member to "get busy and
drink high balls" To other aston
ished club members he announced
that he had $1,000 coppers and lot
of patrol wagons that weren't work
ing" and that he'd be "glad to send
'em around to take the whole club
for a ride"
"There are only two vehicles a
man can ride free Nowadays pa
troll wagon or a hearse," he explain
ed.
The club members politely declined
the offer.
wouldn't want the job perma-
nently for anything" said mayor
Peck when his term ended. "Too
much responsibility. Why, the gov
ernor of New York and the secretary
of state have a cinch alongside the

last night that all prospects for any

parture had been abandoned.

GIVE GROWINK CHICKS MILK

Nothing is better for growing
chicks than a liberal su ply of sour
milk. If it can be obtained it always
should be kept before them in an
open dish or pan where they can eat
and drink it freely. Where sour milk
is fed, the amount of beef scrap in
the dry mash may be reduced one
half.
Plenty of fresh, clean water is alb
solutely necessary for all growing
chicks. In hot weather it should be
given twice daily and put into foun-
