QUIET ZONE, HOSPITAL

PUBLIC IS ASKED TO OBSERVE THE ABOVE REQUEST IN PASSING HOSPITAL. The city has placed on South Cullen street on each side of the hospital building signs reading, .“QUIET ZONE, HOSPITAL.” No one who Would talke time to think of the meaning of this sign would wilfully disobey its admonition^ These signs were displayed by the city for the purpose of calling attention to the passerby that in the hospital upon the bed of pain and agony may lie a* sufferer whose discomfort may be greatly increased by unnecessary noise or disturbance. Feeling for our fellowmen causes us to be very of the sick and suffering. We would much prefer to alleviate rather than to increase their affliction. But because people fail to be Considerate and to observe, much annoyance and often real harm is done to patients in the hospital on account of the noise from passing automobiles. — To awake a sick patient, who is tremendously in need of sleep, is often a very deciding factor In" venting the recovery of that patient. Quietness is quite essential for most sick people.

ALL DRESSED UP AND NO PLACE TO GO.

The women of the United States are on the eve of political enfranchisement. The national amendment will undoubtedly be ratified by thirty-six states before the election of 1920. Now that women are ready the -question —is, —where—will—they go? They are not partisan. They have no political inheritance. They have considered themselves republicans or democrats because their fathers or husbands are ,but distinctly not from any love of the party itself. Where will they go?

No one would wilfully drive by the hospital with cutout open or at such a speed that the noise would be disturbing. Yet this very thing happens both day and night and much suffering is caused by the failure of the of the automobile to observe the plea of the sick, “QUIET ZONE, HOSPITAL.”

VEILE GOES UP; 1 TO 14 YEARS

AUTO THIEF SENTENCED TUESDAY—WILL “BARK” FOR SHOWS NO MORE. W. C. Veile resigned his position at the county jail this Wednesday morning and left for" Michigan City" in company with Sheriff True D. Woodworth, where he has accepted a similar position with a much Larger firm, secured for him through the efforts of Judge Hanley Tuesday afternoon. ' - —- .But two short weeks ago Veile was “barking” for a side show with a carnival company at LaPorte and would have continued to extoll the wonders to be found beneath the canvas droperies had it not been that an officer of the law silenced the “barks” by arresting him and presenting him with a pair of bracelets. Veile was considerably put out and decidedly discommoded, but readily agreed to accompany the officer to this city to see what it was all about.

When arraigned before Justice Irwin on a charge of having stolen the Ford automobile belonging to William Mackey about a year agOr the prisoner recalled the incident—but it had been so long ago that it bad almost slipped his mind, don’t you know? Following the preliminary hearing, Veile was confined in the county jail and lingered there until court convened this week. Veile plead guilty on being brought to trial and within a very short time was given a sentence of from 1 to 14 years in the prison at Michigan City, which sentence was not any .too severe considering the nature of his crime. The only regret expressed by Veile was over leaving the local bastile where he found everything so modern and convenient.

Laßue, conducting a large department store under the firm name of Leßue Brothers.

Mr. Laßue owns three good farms and will possibly devote his attention to the management of these properties.
