Lady Lecturer Says That Bridge Whist is to Blame.

Hammond Times. * “Bridge whist, afternoon teas, matinees and other social diversions are responsible for the high cost of living, not the scarcity of foodstuffs.” This analysis of present domestic conditions was made yesterday by Miss Ida May Pryce, who lectured to students from the Parker and River Forest high schools at the Armour packing plant. “God sends the food, but satan sends the cooks,” said Miss Pryce. “Vanity and false pride is the real trouble,” according to Walter J. Horst, a beef specialist of the Swift pricking plant.

Would You Believe That Wood Would Cost So Much?

Montieello Journal. ' • You have no doubt read of the wonderful value of a ton of iron made Into different articles. The writer ran across a similar interesting fact in making the rounds of the groceries today. Johnsonbaugh & Son had occasion recently to buy a small wooden bearing for their meat slicing machine. The bearing, which cost 20 cents, with 2 cents postage, is less than one inch each way, figuring out 1728 to the ‘cubic foot or 884,736 pieces to the cord. At this rate the cord of wood would cost $44,236.80. The work on the little roller did not amount to five cents.

Hugh Burns is Showing Remarkable Vitality.

Hammond TmTes. Hugh Burns, the central figure in the Schneider shooting on Monday night, who is in St. Margaret’s hospital in Hammond suffering from a number of bullet wounds, is showing remarkable vitality. He has not yet passed the crisis and is therefore in great danger of either pneumonia or blood poisoning. In the meantime, however, he seemingly has a fair chance to recover. His wife, who he tried to kill, and Frank Parson, a Schneider resident who was hit by one of Burns’ bullets, are both getting along all right, as their wounds were not serious.

Mrs. W. L. Myer lost he? purse containing s4l Thursday evening at about 5 o’clock. A search was made for the purse after she arrived at her home but it was not found until today noon, when it was picked up in the street in front of the residence of R. B. Harris, on North College road, where she had dropped it as she stepped into her husband’s automobile. Finding it at that hour prevented The Republican getting in itfj work with a classified ad, which would almost without question have restored the purse, as everyone reads The Republican and all who do are perfectly honest. • An unsigned communication reached The Republican office today and can not be used, Tjhe subject matter is such that the person named might take offense and we would have no one to fall back upon. Possibly it might be treated as a harmless joke, but there is a chance that the person named might swell up and start for The Republican office with his fighting clothes on and lick a half dozen carrier boys before the real fighting man showed up. Not belhg in training for fisticuffs we shall require the name of any person who wants to hand a bunch of funnygraphs at some one through the columns of a newspaper.

Albin Schiedler, Rev. Hugo Lear and Rev. P. A. Kanney. A .very delightful and conviction* filled sermon was delivered by Rev. Wm. D. Sullivan, of Wabash, Ind. The choir, under the direction of Rev.

The first base ball game on the schedule hag to be called off on account of the wet condition of the grounds last Sunday. The -next game is listed for Sunday afternoon, April 20th, when the newly organized Varsity will take on the strong St. Xavier team. There should be nothing to interfere with the playing of the game for'the diamonds are now thoroughly dry, and will not be so easily soaked by every little rain that falls. The players for some of the positions are still hanging in the balance, depending upon the results of the tests that are in progress this week.
