Appetite

VT We very little appetite
don't know what to eat.
One says. and then another brags:
Il don't eare much for meat
Some don't think much of bread and

YOU mustn't cut t thick
But amt that bunk enough to make
A healthy fellow sioka

An ap~petite-alasl--
For breakfast all worked up ahead.

He'd have to think Of dinner. too.
Before his morning meal
Was done. or when he came around
He'd get a skimpy deal.
And while he was dlgesting what
Small crumbs he might pick up.
He'd have to keep his mind upon
His number-if he'd sup.

Can live on fuss and foam

CHARLES S. REED
VISITS DAVENPORT

Charles S. Reed, California mill
lionaire, president OF the Western
Willie Road Construction company
which controls all Willie paving
west of the Mississippi river, for
mer resident of Davenport, who is
stopping at the Hotel Blackhawk,
and who lives at Hollywood, claims
that his home town has been great
ly hbelled in the press reports of
the murder of William Desmond
Taylor.
He states that there never has
been a murder committed in Holly
wood Taylor lived outside the
city limits, he says, and he affirms
it is unjust to blame Hollywood for
crimes committed near it There
is not a public dance hall, cab
aret or saloon in Hollywood, accord
ing to his statements. He adds that
Hollywood has less crime than any
city in the world.

TIE GREAT IDEA,
NEIGHBOR, Is TO
ATTEND THE FAIR

Heralded as their first public ap-
pearance and stamped with their
own guarantee that it will be a
hum-dinger, the Tri-City Women ;
Press club members ask you, folk,
to think a bit about their country
fair Tuesday evening, March 81, in
the Legion hall, Sixteenth street
and Third avenue
The fair first scheduled for this
week was postponed until Tuesday
evening, March 81, to avoid conflict
ing events.
In modest announcements of their
venture, the club committee has
revised the usual order by minimiz-
ing advance claims but have or
ganized show that will make 'em
sit up and take notice. II you'll
take it from one who got just a
peep behind the curtain,
AS country fair this will be
something to make the agricultural
bloc proud. Don't let that name
fool youths is going to be the
neatest, niftfest and just a little bit
the incest affair that the tri-cities
have gaZed at this season. The
show will be continuous and he
fun contagious. II you're catching
everything that happened this wi /
ter just breeze into Legion hall
that night and get a new grip on
life.
Much Of the cost will be tn, en-
try fee at the main gate. This is
the chief place where mere man
will be permitted to show himself.
Payment of a silver coin properly
endorsed by the U. S. treasury will
admit him and further tender VIII
open the fair field to his sweet
heart, wife or just friend. After
that it's grab your hat, hold your
breath, wait for the next thrill and
don't eat the corn off the stalk,
neighbor!
One corner of Legion hall will
be reserved for the sole-shufflers.
1t will be designated terrible"
Gardens, the adjective being chosen
to indicate its popularity. A jazz
band, SO syncopated it will burst
your shoelaces, will assist in the
festivities.
In Another Corner.
But what's the use? The best tIn
or country fair is its surprise aEH
surprises is something Of which
there won't be nothing else but"
There's a reason for all this
show, too. The club expects to es-
tablish a fund with which to pro-
mote events of more artistic merit
later in the season. 1t is the pur-
pose of the organization to bring
to this community leaders in lit
erary, music and the field of art so
the fun of this week will provide
knowledge of a later date.
The big idea, just now, as yoU
may have gathered, is to join in
the clubs fronic The women
of this club have been pretty busy
the last year and unusually sue
cessful in their own programs AMI
the best bet is that they can do the
same thing with a public entertain
ment.
Here's one mere male whose
ticket is written that way,

LOOT AT STORE
Bert s. MeteaR Grocery Entered
