little wife OF State Streets Lochinvar.
She was arguing for the return OF her
ring from one OF the gentlemen who
used to wear box back coats but now
affects bell bottom trousers. This slick
young man gave every excuse in the
calendar but the lady knew that She
had to show up with the ring that
night or be in for a session. Alter
the fight Nosey saw the young man
crawl back towards the railroad
tracks coatless and hatless. The lady
did not get her ring but she very
nearly got pound of flesh and spoiled
somebody's seventy dollar suit. There
is story about the worm turning but
Nosey did not know that the worm
kicks up so much fuss when it turns.
.nN A HOT night one is likely to
l see all kinds OF sights. Nosey
~ was looking for old clothes i'll
the alley between Calumet and Forest
Avenue and by chance huled one OF
his sharp eyes upward and saw five
young ladies in one room engaged in
smoking cigarettes and taking off their
hair bit by bit. Nosey saw some OF
the prettiest curls, wavelettes and putts
come off without the slightest trouble,
leaving the girls heads something
horrid to behold Even the one who
had her hair bodied managed to take
off some. When the lights went out,
closing from view those dismantled
heads, Nosey decided to look sharp
at every woman's hair to see if he can
solve the mysteries OF those hidden
fastenings for curls and puifs store
bought hair and diamond rings-Oh,
Lord" So runs those St. Louis Blues.

- ONE PEOPLE do not know TO
what purpose their automobiles
~ are put when they leave them IN
front OF their house all night. Nosey
was tripping home the other morning
after an all night session at one OF the
clubs. Passing south on Grand Blvd.
Nosey saw the unemployed yawning
and stretching as they got up from
their hard beds i'll the bottoms OF the
cars which were parked III front oil
houses along the street. Nosey noticed
that there are some women who are
apparently also unemployed and with
ont shelter for they too stepped out OF
limousines and arranged their hair III
some cases the gentlemen assisting
Nosey wrinkled his long nose i'll a
smile, nodded affably to the early risers
and passed on thinking that after all
the cars are well guarded against ban
dts.
II NERYONE GETS fooled sooner
r. or later il he tries TO be wise
- one. That very thing happened
in one Of the south sides cabarets the
other night. A slick young man was
trying to put the knockout drops
in a demure little lady's glass OF good
ginger ale. He got in the glass al
right while she seemed not to be look
ing and he thought all was fair, and
turned TO answer the question OF SOME
friend. That was fatal, for, Nosey saw
the little lady switch the glasses and
start slipping what she knew was ginger
ale. I he man was glad and watched
her while she drank his "own dope.
When the young man began to feel
groggy and finally took sick, he could
not understand why the little lady was
so unsympathetic The good friend of
the young man who had the automobile
took him off-but alone. These cab
arets are sometimes interesting. Try
them in duh moment and look on II
you cannot enjoy their pleasures, you
certainly can see cute little tricks.
NZOU CANNOT BE TOO careful
about the company you keep. One
OF the most popular dentists on
the South side tried to beat up chaui .
feur because he lost his watch, fountain
pen, stick pin and roll while riding with
q strange but pretty lady who asked
him to direct her to number which
she had on piece OF paper. He wanted
to make sure that she got to the ad-
dress and hence he had to have 4 car.
He could not pay the taxi bill because
he tried to do like New York taxi driv-
ers-drive you all over town when your
destination is just around the corner.
When the taxi driver told the good
dentist that this same lady had tainted
in the offices OF several OF his brother
dentists and had come to- with their
watches and rolls, the dentist borrowed
money to pay the bill and did ohastise
the chauffeur. Again, one had better
be careful about the company he keeps
in close quarters like a taxi.

ccivcd Assistance Of organization.

1t is not only the white child that Ia
helped by the Childrens Bureau, but
Il great number of coiored children re-
ccived It's attention. Last fall when the
Delaware Orphan home n Industrial
School at Hare's Corner was closed, the
Bureau was asked to make arrange
ments for the care of - of the children.
1t was found after investigating their
families that six of these could be re-
turned TO their own people and In each
case a happy family reunion occurred.
Johns mother wrote this letter to the
Bureau after he bad reached home.
My son was received home gladly by
the family. with much affection. | can

gratitude for your benevoiencc, but may
Gods richest blessings rest upon you
and all you represent ever more
Seven other children were placed In
FREQ homes where they are being well
cared for.
The Childrcn's Bureau is grateful
that II can number among It's friends
the girls OF the Industrial School. who
have written many letters of appeal to
persons on the boards of organizations
affiliated with the bureau. These letters
have brought a generous response. and
80 the debt of the bureau is twofold to
the girls who so carefully wrote the
letters. and to those who sent their
money to help carry on the work for
children.

was attended by twenty members, and
guests. Emmett s.. Hickman, president
Of the board was chairman.
While the benefits OF organization
begin with the effect on individual mem
bers, the speaker said, they raise the
standard of the calling as a whole and
establish rates which are In many cases
accepted by the courts and adopted or
part of the legal practice.

on parade, tho Templars today SUR
passed themselves as they marched
down Market street TO the applause of
hundreds OF people who lined the side
walks to watch their departure.
The commandery left the local temple
on Market street, above Eighth, at $50
o'clock. They were escorted TO the
Pennsylvania railroad station by a
squad of patrolmen under the command
of Traffic Sergeant John Devenish. Im-
mediateiy following the police was
Garbers Band of forty-ffve pieces, a
non-union musical organization. This
band was made up of Wilmington musi-
clans and was the result of difficulties
which resulted two years ago when the
Templars took another band to Phil
adelpha with them.
The commanderys banner, with Its
flaming red cross, the American nag
and the Delaware State banner. fiuttered
at the head of the line of march.
Major Edmund Mitchell was in COM
mand. The knights wore their fun
dress uniforms, with the plumed hats,
and carried swords. They marched with

CITY SCHOOLS CLOSE
JUNE z, NO CLASSES
HELD AT TER JUNE Il
Date for Closing OF Term Is Fixed
by Board at Request of
Superintendent Scott.
TEACHERS PENSION FUND

Public schools In this city will close
for the current term on wednesday.
June 20. But in SO far as the actual
vacation OF tho boys and girls attending
is concerned. daily sessions will be dis
continued on Friday. June II. This
was decided upon last night by the
Board OF Education upon the request of
Superintendent of Schools G. j. Scott.
who asked the members to fix a definite
date.
The commencement exercises will be
held In the High School on "Wednesday
evening, June 22. The commencement
exercises of the Howard High School
will be held in the same place on the
following evening, June %.
DIR. Scott said the rules adopted in
1917 were that the schools should close
the last Wednesday in June. but this
has not always been followed and this
year the last Wednesday comes rather
late. He suggested June % be the clos
ing date. 1t was therefore agreed that
the sessions will terminate June IL and
the days intervening between that date
and June % will be given over to the
teachers to make out their final reports.
The board gave their sanction to a
request from the Teachers Retiring
Fund, to be presented to City Council.
that the annual allowance from the
city be increased. DIR. Scott called at
tsntion to the fact that Council now
g,~nts ieo rrurr1 ss,ano annually but the
police Pension fund is allowed $1,000
annually and he pointed out that there
are many more teachers than there are
policemen. He urged the board to back
up tho teachers in their petition.
DR.. Cooper said the school board al
lows the teachers fund $1,000 annually.
but he hoped the new board would in
crease this sum. He said there are now
six or eight on the retired list and while
the teachers have accumulated a fund
themselves, their requirements are
growing fast.
MIR. Draper called attention to the fact
that Councils giving the police pension
fund $1,000 a year is not voluntary on
their part but mandatory as the result
Of a law passed by the Legislature.
However. he favored the teachers peti-
ton for an increase from Council.
Mr.. Campbell also favored the motion
