RANDOM THINGS AND FLINGS
"TIMES' " NEWS SUPREMACY.
The unassailable supremacy of THE TIMES as a news gathering organ!
zation was never more forcibly illustrated than by last evening's issue. The paper had four clean cut "beats" of such great importance as to attract county-wide attention and a score of items of lesser Importance, which appeared exclusively in this paper. Probably the most important of the four notable "beats" of yesterday was the Btory that the American Steel Foundries company, which employ? thousands in Indiana Harbor and Hammond, had decided upon a "Voluntary Accident Relief Plan." This radical departure in industrial management promises to attract nation-wide attention. It is of absorbing interest to the lawyers of the community who hare fattened on personal injury suits that will now be made unnecessary. But it is of greater interest to the thousands of employes ot fhe mills and factories in this region whd are daily faced with the danger of a most hazardous occupation and who are solicitous for the -welfare of their wives and children who would be left without support An case of accident. The story of the suit to partition the million-dollar Mandel estate was another great beat. Not only is the law su one of the most important that has ever been filed In this county, buttlie Mandel property has long been
lopkd upona-fcaJ.'ieal site for a large manufacturing concern and for this
reason this action is being closely watched by real estate men In Gary, East
Chicago and Hammond. The Btory that the Monon railroad is to spend $200,000 on the installa
tion of a block signal system from Hammond to Indianapolis, is of interest
to the thousands of men who are employed by the railroad in this locality.
This Btory appeared first and exclusively In THE TIMES. Then the Btory of the $150,000 failure of the Michigan Sash & Doorcompany of Michigan City is one that is of interest to every lumber dealer in Lake county. While this concern is not located in Lake county, it is well known here and the proceedings were started in Hammond. In handling the Doyle story THE TIMES did more than merely print the story that was printed in the Chicago papers. It conducted an investigation of Its own which revealed a possible motive for the alleged suicide. Then THE TIMES bureau at the state capital came to bat again and gave TIMES readers an exclusive story of the effort that is being made by such well-known men as John C Peterson and Randall Burns to have the assessment on the Tolleston Gun club's property reduced. It will be noted that these big stories effect every part of Lake county and it must be apparent to the readers of THE TIMES that in this paper, and this paper alone, are they able to get a comprehensive idea of what is going on in this great industrial community.

THE CHALICE OF LIFE. The poet calls life a "crystal pal
ace," which is a fine figure. You can
fill a chalice or bowl to the brim with a liquid. Then to make an overflow
you drop something into the liquid.
The overflow is as large as that which
you put into the bowl. So is human
life.
The Lord of life has filled yonr
earthly vessel to the brim. The chal
ice holds your life. If you want life
more abundantly" you must put
something Into the vessel. It must overflow. And what you get in over
flow Is measured by what you put in.
For Instance-

AN INDICATION OF COSMOPOLITANISM. There is no better indicator of the cosmopolitan character of Gary's people than the report, of its postal saving bank clerk. The 155 depositors enrolled come from the four corners of the globe. They are registered from sixteen different countries located on four continents. The patrons are from Europe, Asia, Africa and North America. Countries represented are v as follows: United States, Austria, Montenegro, Turkey, South! Africa, Rus
sia, Ireland, Germany, England, Sweden, Greece, Hungary, Belgium, Asia
Minor provinces, Roumania and Bulgaria. Sons of Austria are the best patrons. Ireland has but one native son depositing money. Turks have the highest accounts, while in occupations the carpenters seem to be the most thrifty. Even one newspaper man Is a depositor. It is also interesting to note that there are twenty female depositors. Single women are not of the saving kind, if the Gary office is to be accepted as a criterion. But three have accounts as against seventeen married women. One negress is a depositor which speaks well for her race. Average deposits after three months of operation Is $52.
YOU KNOW WHY THE OPPOSITION, DON'T YOU? A Gary newspaper, with particular selfish views, has set out to fight the city market idea. The arguments against the city market the reducer of the hlgb cost of living that it presents are parlcularly puerile. It will be Interesting to watch just what weight such opposition will have. The influences that are at work are in favor of the city market idea are not sleeping and it might be well for the ordinary people, who do not have the bankers for relatives, to ascertain the reason for this opposition to a plan which will enable them to have the benefits to be had in other prosperous cities where the municipal market is a success. It is hard to understand why there is not more enthusiasm and eagerness among the municipal authorities for a city market, but the cities of the Calumet region can rest assured that as long as they slumber on the job we will continue to jab their ribs and not permit entire forgetfulness of the value of the city market idea.

I am not on o those people who see Immodesty in every little thing. The folks who shriek "Indecency" at elbow sleeves and Dutch necks and think stockings and peek-a-boo waists remind me forcibly of the old saying, "To the pure all things are pure." But m-hen it comes to women shadowgraphing the exact lines of their
figures on the public consciousness tha
way ao many of them do now well, there's where I make my stand. It Wasn't so bad ip the Winter when the materials were thick but now that they are thin and clinging, but why de
scribe the effect, you know aa well as
I do what it is.
Watch any group of men ln a public
place where men ana women are pass
lng and see how quickly some of them
glance after a woman dressed ln this
way.
Wouldn't you think those glances
would burn right Into her back?
In japan, aa you probably know, the
women of bad character are supposed to tie the sash in front Instead of lii
back. A Japanese on a visit to this
eountry evidently thought he had dls-' covered a parallel to this custom when
he saw a woman in one of these exceedingly clinging gowns, for he pointed her out to his American companion and Inquired, "That Is what you women of the deml monde wear?"
One word more. Especially for the
girl over whose head my previous remarks have passed, who is sniffing at
my accusation of immodesty as all newspaper talk and asurlng herself that I'm one of those who don't know or care anything about style. Whisper, my dear. A dressmaker whom I know just came back from a trip to Paris. 'To think that American women are still wearing those abominable tight skirts," she said. "Why, they've dropped them long go in Paris. They say they are ugly and Impossible. I suppose you people will realize that In a year or two." What matter If mjv previous arguments against . tight gowns have tallen nat? Surely I have an unanswerable one in that. RUTH CAMERON.
