Good Evening
A MODERN NOVELETTE,.

(By Steve Post)
He and her sat opposite each other
narrow cafe table between them
The place was crowded.
Hollingsworth admired her i'm,
mensely and his face showed it,
The waitress bent over them in
turn. Ethel ordered a terrapin. mixed
salad and a pot of black tea.
HoI1ingsworth ordered a filet de
sole, some shoestring potatoes, a piece
of pastry and cup of black coffee
All eyes in that part of the restau-
rant were upon them. Ethel was beau

We'd.
Yet strange silence fell over them
Conversation was apparently not for
them.

headed gentleman at the next table
but she will melt him finally. Who
could resist face like hers? No
they are married. That's the trouble -
STILL they did not speak. Occas-
ionally the girl sighed.
Suddenly HollingSworth rose from
the table, having finished his meal
took his overcoat and hat, and with.
out word to his fair companion, he
stalked out of the place without even
paying her check.
The brute" mumbled the bald
headed man. 1T must be more ser
ious than | thought" ---
Placidly the girl finished her meal
and then ordered a chocolate cellar
which she consumed leisurely. The
absence of her stalwart companion
did not seem to weigh heavily upon
her-there was a reason.
They were total strangers and had
never seen each other before.

We are having the same trouble we
had year ago in regard to our sal
airy adjustment, and we believe we
told you about it at that time. The
matter has been hanging fire for
several days, the office wishing to
thrust upon us money per week than
we think we earn, and we, bravely and
with high-minded purpose, refusing alb
solutely to accept so large an increase.
This is one of the trials of a column
conductors life. A column conductor
is not like a street car conductor. He
cannot take as much or as little as he
thinks he is entitled ii. We shall in
sist upon the low figure, and if we
do mot get it, we will go down with
our flag flying. But our readers
should know us we'll enough by this
time to believe that we positively will
not abandon our principles in this mat
ter. This, as we have often said, is
\ column with a conscience, and we
win not hoard up an unearned mere
ment this coming year We say we
won't. But it is a nuisance to be for
ever nagging back and forth and re-
sisting temptation and all that.

Dinner Stories

What is the matter with that lady
who just hurriedly left the store?'
asked the grocer.
"She found fault with the potatoes,
replied the clerk.
What was the matter with the po'
tatoes?"
"she didn't like the color Of their
eyes!"
Higgins, got home one night to learn
that his wife had given birth to trip
lets-three healthy. bouncing boys.
Higgins, overjoyed, went to the or
flee next morning and recounted the
rare and wonderful thing which had
befallen him. The chief clerk fel1c1-
tated him heartily, and the next day
Higgins was sent for.
He hurried to the office again, to
find the entire firm assembled there.
A hondsome silver cup stood on the
mantel, and this trophy, in an eloquent
speech, the chief presented to him
in recownition of the triple blessing
which he had bestowed upon his coun-
try.
Higgins took the cup in his hand,
bowed respectfully and said:
Excuse me, sir but, is this cup
mine now, or do have to win it three
years in succession"

Home Rule to Pass

Rep. Knapp, of Wayne county, who introduced
the home rule bill in the Indiana general assem-
bly,, is sanguine of the possibility of it's passage
by the lower house and of favorable action in the
senate.
He anticipates opposition from the Marion
county delegation and believes that the nature of
the attack on the measure will be revealed at the
public hearing to be conducted at Indianapolis
Thursday evening.
Richmond must be represented at this meet
ing and be prepared to show the legislators that
this city wants the bill enacted into law. Once
before Richmond, with some of the public spir-
tied men of Fort Wayne, was back of home rule
bill that chloroformed in the committee.
This time the bill will have fair show in the
committee, and it behooves us to see that the
many favorable aspects of optional home rule be
presented at the first public hearing
The civic bodies will send their representa-
tives. AS many citizens as can conveniently do
so should be present Thursday to show by their
interest and espousal of the movement that we
are deadly in earnest about the passage of the
bill. ."-
We have the assurances of support from the
men who represent ctr community in the two
houses. We must back them up with our pres
ence Thursday evening.
Home rule stands a fair show in the present
general assembly. Public opinion in many Ind-
ana cities is demanding radical change in mu-
nicpal government. With the opportunity to
obtain it, let's not pass up the chance by failure
to emphasize it's Importance at the public hear
ing.
