Additional Society News Helen Gass and Margaret Mylott gave a lovely class party last evening at. the Frank Gass home for the twenty graduates of the St. Joseph school.

Tables for bunco were provided and prizes were awarded to Bernard Clark and Irene Holthouse. While the players were busy music was provided and later the party was seated at the long table in the dining room, for the tempting two-course luncheon. The class colors of white and blue were also manifest here in the shower and dome effect over the table and in the table appointments. Tire place cards were pretty and dainty and were adorned with handpainted blue for-get-me-nots.

Ince star. It tells the story of a city youth who has inherited millions which he is wasting in night life dissipation along the Great White Way. Through the agency of a fight, wherein he be- ' lieves he lias killed a man, the hero is forced to seek new fields and goes to an Arizona ranch. There he develops his manhood and remains to marry the daughter of the ranch manager. The contrast between the life of the city’s white lights and the healthful, expanding existence in the open country. is decidedly marked. This picture will be shown at the 1 Crystal theatre tonight and is said to be one of the best in Mr. Ray's repertory. The photography by Chester Lyons and the suppoit. chief among ' which are Doris Lee, Robert McKim, ’ Lillian Loraine, and Charles Pearley, are excellent. K. OF C. NOTICE ■ Regular meeting Monday. May 19. A good attendance is desired. G. K.

A TIMELY WARNING . Decatur, Ind., May 15, ‘l9 Editor Democrat, | Dear Sir: —A solicitude for the little children whose parents live on!' Fifth street impels me to address you ' on a very serious subject. For several years past certain reckless, hairbrained, young drivers of automo-j biles have been using that street tor an amateur speedway to the great , terror of al! parents who reside on it.' It is no unusual thing for these drivers to turn their machines wide open < and drive at a rate of thirty or forty miles an hour. This practice is indulged in from the Methodist church to the juncture of Fifth street with Second street. And thus the lives of little children are hourly jeopardized, for the watchful eye of careful parents cannot always be on the child. This recklessly fast driving has become so pernicious that it is almost wanton. Interview any father or mother on the street and a unanimous response will be forthcoming. Such conduct will be permitted until we have another waterworks swimming pool tragedy, and then when it is too late another wail of agony will be heard throughout the city. Automobiles were long ago legally determined to be dangerous agencies when impelled at a great rate of speed, dangerous to persons of years and discretion, and when we think of the little tots, tiny cherubs, fondly chasing butterflies with child-like forgetfullness, and enthusiastically venturing off the curb and into the imddle of the street.' and an automobile driven in utterj defiance of the law on the street at the same time, the consequences arc' not hard to foretell. Is it not timep that this hourly practice should be stopped? If it is all parents on the street will be happy. Very respectfully, A PARENT. FOR THE SUMMER COTTAGE I Summer cottages, both to rent and' to be lived in, by owners, will be in more demand this season than for| , several years past. This will be more , especially true of cottages at the sea- , shore, the end of the war putting to r rest fears, mostly imaginary, of the danger from submarines. Owners getting ready such cottages, to be liv- . ed in, or rented, should bear in mind t the warning to put nothing in a seashore house that can bo affected by damp or rust. Cotton rugs are better ~ on the floors than wool. If walls are , I plastered, paint is a better finish than s paper, In the kitchen department. f use enameled ware whenever possie bie, because it is not affected by the salt air. Indeed for a cottage which is to be rented, enameled ware will p be found an excellent substitute for ,f many china articles which are easily [f broen by careless tenants. An after,f noon tea service in pretty colors can x be had in the enameled ware and a e teapot of that material will survive

any usage and come out whole at the end of a season two or three china tea pots would have perished by the way or survived only as spoutless forlornities. Breakage must always be count ed in the cost of renting, but thought in furnishing will reduce such breakage to a minimum. ——o — A NEW DISH FROM PANAMA A returned traveler from Central America brings this suggestion as a substitute for meat. Take good-sized onions and cut in thick slices, fry until they are a rich brown. Then add bananas cut in half, lengthwise, and cook together slowly. This sounds very simple, but the first experiment made a tthe north did not work out as expected. The traveler then recollect ed that in Central America the cooking was done on flat, very hot stones So the next trial was made in an enameled ware frying pan. That answered perfectly. It was possible ,o cook more slowly and steadily and the result was very different. The Guutamaleans claim that this dish is every bit as nourishing as the beefsteak and onions beloved by the “Gringo.” —o —— MEETING AT BERNE All Sunday-school superintendents are requested to meet with the count., council at Berne at the Evangelical church, Sunday afternoon, May 18th, immediately after the afternoon session of the Monroe township meeting. Important business will be transacted and every Sunday school superintendent, is urged to be present. M. S. LIECHTY, Co. Sec’y. o NOTICE FOR LABOR LETTING Notice is hereby given that the undersigned will receive bids, up until the 19th day of May, for concrete work, cement block and cellar excavation. Specifications and bids can be had by calling at the office of the undersigned. F-S DANIEL N. ERWIN. Miss Margaret Mills spent the day in Fort Wayne.
