COUNCIL KILLS 13 ORDINANCES LONG ON SHELF Transact Business Hastily and Turn Session Into ‘Kidding Bee.’ NEW MEMBERS LOOK ON Thirteen ordinances, which have been hanging fire all the way from two weeks to eleven months, were stricken from the files by the city council in a special meeting last night. Several ordinances designed to clean up tangles facing the present city administration were passed under suspension of the rules. None of the measures met with opopsition, it having been agreed before the meeting that all should be rushed through with dispatch. With the business out of the way in a few minutes the councilmen, remembering that they have only one more meeting left before their terms expire, had a little fun. While President Kussell Willson was for a motion to adjourn, Councilman Gustav G. Schmidt arose gravely and announced he thought the council would be greatly interested in hearing the latest office to which it was proposed Councilman Louis W. Carnefix should be appointed in the new administration. Before the laughter, in which Mr. Carnefix joined heartily, had subsided Mr. Schmidt took the floor again and remarked: “We knew which one he had this morning but that was this morning.’’ CARNEFIX CONSIDERED FOR TWO POSITIONS. Mr. Carnefix has been considered in turn by Mayor-Elect Samuel Lewis Shank for purchasing agent and director of recreation. Mr I'amefir got up in the midst of the merriment and said: “Mr. President, since this is getting Into deep water for me l move adjournment.” There was no second, so the meeting went on. President Willson called for a speech from City Clerk George O. Hutsell and he replied with a few remarks about how grateful he is for the fine harmony which has prevailed between the council and himself during the four years of their association. He closed with the suggestion that there is one office which the new administration has not filled and which the councilmen might be able to get some friend appointed to. He referred to the position of smoke inspector. MEASURES ARE STRICKEN FROM FILES. The ordinances stricken from the files were as follows: Increasing salaries of custodian and janitors of Tomlinson Hall. Increasing salary of the secretary to the mayor from $-’,OOO to $3,000. Codification and changes of the traffie ordinances. Authorizing bond issue of $500,000 for nurses’ home at the city hospital. Increasing salary of probation officer of city court from $l,lOO to $2,000. Requiring owners of buildings to illuminate fire escapes. Regulating public dances. Regulating parking In North street. Regulating Jitney busses. (Introduded in the midst of the controversy between the city and street railway company over jitney regulation and superseded by the ordinances now in effect.) Prohibiting loud and unnecessary warning devices on automobiles. Prohibiting operation of places where vivisection is practiced. Compelling railroad companies to main-

teresting story about life In Japan which sent far to the rear the position take* by Lafcadio Hearn, Professor Nltobe and others who have extolled the pleasing phases of Japanese life and customs. The book was a sensation and when Its contents became known out in Toklo hundreds of orders were forthcoming; orders that never have been filled, strangely enough, although the Japanese government officials will not concede that the censor suppressed the story in the FatEast. The principal characters In the novel are two Eurasian girls, typical of a large element of half castes in Japan, socially snubbed h v Japanese and Caucasions alike. It depicts the sordid reality of Japan’s vast “Yoshiwara” system, and some of the principal characters are actual persons whose identity are thinly veiled. A former British ambassador, members of the embassy, and Japanese high socially and officially play more or less flattering roles In the story. The book was announced as by “John Paris.”

Now that we have set in the prolog we can go ahead with the Mr. Ashton Gwatkin of the British foreign office. “You were In Japan for some time?” I asked. “A matter of six or seven years,” was the smiling reply. “Indeed, I can not speak about politics, not a word, not a word.” “Nor about ‘John Parig?”T countered, letting him have it, the purpose of the call, full In the face. “Oh, yes; ‘Paris,’ a queer fellow who was out In Japan for a time,” said Mr. Ashton Gwatkin quickly, who, by the way, is a master of the Japanese language and has all the indirect methods of the Orient. He went on: “Really, I can not speak of him. I fancy he is back in England. How extraordinary that you should come to me Rbout that book he wrote.” I shall leave off right here, for Mr. Ashton Gwatkin is a capital chap, mother’s family from Lancashire and father

from Wales, knows everybody and tells a ripping good story. He dees not wear the long, reddish beard that was the pride of the “tluff” section of Tokio and the promenade along the Bund. He is clean shaven now, except for a closecropped mustache. One can't help but like him. I shall see him again—when work of the Washington conference is done. —Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company. COURT ETIQUETTE REFORMED.

You Would Help Him “I think I am discharging my full duty when I take care of my own family.” That may be a good theory, but in actual practice there are men who at times can not take care of their own families and someone else must help. —■/or instance: A young man, with a wife and three months old baby, received a bone bruise while at work. An infection resulted. There was no income and no savings. Their situation was desperate. Reluctantly they applied to one of the helpful organizations for aid. They were soon established in light housekeeping rooms. Medical treatment was provided and a friendly visitor came around every day to bring cheer and such assistance as was needed. While we are caring for our own families, we must also see that the forty societies in the Community Chest are financed to care for the other fellow’s family when he cannot take care of his own.
