door Fair in New Labor
Temple

There is no doubt of it, no doubt
whatever, that the bright spot in
Hamilton this week is at South Sec
ond street and Central avenue. The
bright spot is local organized labor's
new temple And the cause of all the
brightness is the big indoor fair be-
ing held in the temple under the aus
pices of Trades Council all during this
week. 1t opened Monday night and
will close in blaze of glory on Fri
day night, Christmas eve.
Long before the doors opened on
Monday night large crowd of men,
women and children were gathered
seeking admission to the big fair Nor
was any one disappointed after get
ting in. The committee in charge
have been working like trojans for
several weeks in preparing for the big
event. Pretty booths and stands are
to be seen everywhere. There is some
thing doing in every corner of the
spacious building, from cellar to gar
ret, and there is amusement and en-
tertainment for all.
Good music is furnished every
night. Everything imaginable neces-
sary for the Christmas dinner can be
had for mere pittance. Turkeys,
geese, chickens, ducks, oysters, candy,
baskets of fruit, baskets of groceries
and many other things too numerous
to mention.
Bad weather seems to have no effect

minor character or with eye defects
corrected by glasses who were classed
in the limited service group.
"This is merely a confirmation in
dramatic way of the facts.that have
been revealed by examination of the

in all parts of the civilized world dur
ing the past generation" says the
report.

CHIEF BRISBOIS TO
 WAGE WAR AGAINST
 SPEEDING AUTOISTS

War has been declared on speeders by Police Chief George O. Brisbois and instructions have been issued to members of the traffic department to carry on a relentless warfare against all law violators. Enforcement of all traffic laws will also be included in the new crusade, it was stated last night.
 First evidence of the warfare was forthcoming yesterday, when a trio of Barney Oldfields," fell into the net of Motorcycle Office Nick Pappo. All three have been instructed to appear in court at 4 o'clock this afternoon to answer charges of speeding The complaints against them aIege that they were driving their machines at a speed in excess of 9 miles an hour but does not specify the exact speed regis tered by the different offenders.
 It is understood that the police court has assured support to the movement and will invoke the full penalty as provided in the city ordinance in an effort to put a stop to the menace, which is said to be assuming alarming proportions.
 Another evil, not covered in traffic | regulations promulgated by the city fathers, will also be dispensed with if the plans of the police department do not miscarry. It is the practice com monly known as street gossiping
