dawn, they found the old smoke Man wa3 gone. Then Scouty shouted, "There he is, just fading out of sight.” So all the Tinies watched him fade, and quite a thrilling sight it made. The Tinies promptly wondered, then, just what would be their plight. Said Carpy, “We’ll just sail around, and maybe drift down lo the As long as all this other smoke stays with us, we’re all right. The only trouble is, with me, that I’m as hungry as can be. I wish that we would land some place so I cou'.d get a bite.” Then quiet settled o’er the crowd, till someone shouted, right out lfluci, “Oh, look! Our sail of smoke is actJ ing very, very queer. It seems it's | waving to and fro. Perhaps it too, j is going to go, and if it does we’ll I have no way of sailing on, I fear.” ! The smoke sail wavered in the breeze and then with quite apparent ease, it started floating through the air, and soon could .not be seen. Wee Coppy said, “I told you so. I knew that sail was bound to go. I think the Smoke Man leaving us was really rather mean.” And then the smoke on which they rode began to sink down with its load, and let the Tinies tumble to the center of the thing. “Ho, ho,” said Clowny, “bless my soul.

MR. FECIT Two of Every .Three Complaints on Streets.

Write your troubles to Mr. Fixit. He Is The Times’ representative at the city hall and wiH be alad to present your case to the proper city officials. Write him in care of The Times signing full name and address Name will not be published. Alleys and streets in Indianapolis seem to be in very bad shape. Two out of every three complaints received by Mr. Flxit are about some alley or street. George Woodward, street commissioner, declared to Mr. Fixit that he would fix all of these, but sufficient funds are not available. Neither has he sufficient equipment, he said. Just what can be done to better the situation Mr. Fixit does not know. It has been suggested that the persons living on these alleys and streets put a petition in with the board of works and have them paved. This would eliminate all the trouble for the time being and for

many years to come. One of the letters complaining about such a situation is: Dear Mr. Fixit: The alley between School St. and Wood St., from Thirty-First St., is in an impassable condition. Each winter it gets that way and it is impossible to get in or out with a car and we cannot get coal delivered to us. Would it be possible for you to have some cinders put on it so we can use it? A. M. B. This letter was turned over to the street commissioner and he promised Mr. Fixit that he would attend to the alley as soon as possible. Dear Sir: Will you please see what can be done for the school children who have to cross Pleasant Run Blvd. at Shelby St. on the east side of the street? On accoupt if improper drainage the mud and water stand so far out in the gutter that it is impossible for them to get across without going out in the street and thereby .endangering their lives. Tours for safety first. A PARENT. This condition will be remedied at once the street commissioner promised Mr. Fixit. An inspector will be sent down to view the conditions of the place and if a drain bowl is stopped up it will be cleaned. In any case steps will be taken at once to see that the situation is remedied, he said.
