PLAYER NOT REAL MANAGER. It is a pleasant thing to be the owner of a business, and sometimes entitles a man to credit. But it ALWAYS a magnificent thing to be the MANAGER of a busir
ness. Sometimes at clubs, trade conventions and social pow-wows you hear the owners of tremendous businesses telling how they keep their mind in trim through golf, miscellaneous piffle and automobile Tides, so that THEIR mental batteries can keep the wheels turning by virtue of three or four hours' work a day, while the
common herd sweat and struggle from the rising of the sun until the going down of the same. This is k pleasant little fiction. These men are not real managers .of the business. They are merely the owners who believe they are managers because some fellow consults with them of points he has already mastered and decided.
It Is a delightful thing to run a
business, but a baby 3 years old can do it if his father was smart enough.
And the baby will usually run It
better than the four-hour-a-day golf
player, because he will countermand
none of the real manager's instruc
tions.
The world takes its hat off, not to the throne, but the power behind the

he has another guess coming. The man who won it was the one who built and ran the engine and kept
the machinery oiled.

Mr. Kohlsaat (editor of the Chicago Inter Ocean) should take pains to inform himself as to conditions at Gary before accepting any more heroe-s from that territory.

LATEST NEW WOMAN.
Fashion decrees that the woman of
the spring of '13 is to be curveless,
hipless, straight up and down like the
figure 1.
The pouter pigeon, hour glass and
question mark styles of women are to be eliminated. Fashion can decree until the cows come home and then some, but looking around, it occurs this thing can't be done. It's unconstitutional, being special legislation for the bean pole class. Only way the change could be made is by the Pittsburg method putting women under a steam chest or rolling them out. Don't think It can be done.
AN EDUCATIONAL CENTER.
Hammond is getting to be some
thing of an educational center of
late. Only recently the federal
bureau of education commented on
the fact that Hammond has the larg
est public night school in the state
of Indiana outside of Indianapolis.
Hammond believes in utilizing the equipment of Its public school sys
tem as many hours or the day as possible and hence the encouragement of night study. It reduces the
cost, per capita, of educating the
community.
Then Hamonmd has Its parochial
schools which are uniformy of a high
character. In these a religious train

ADDITIONAL COURT FACILITIES. The number of cases that are being filed still exceeds the number that
are being disposed of in the courts of
Lake County. This means that additional court facilities will have to be provided. In most communities thu court business is so centralized that wheii the business expands to the proportions It has reached in this county each court is assigned to a particular class of litigation. Lake County now has four courts; three superior and one circuit. Folowing the usual plan the business woud be so divided lhat one court would handle criminal business exclusively, another probate work and the rest civil matters. Under the present arrangement all
of these courts have criminal probate and civil settings. If another court
were to be established In Lake Coun
ty it too would be assigned to its tdiare of the great variety of litiga
tion that arises here.
It la to" be regretted that the courts
of the county are not now all concen
trated in one central location. In
Cook county, for instance, all of the courts are located in one building In
Chicago.

"SCIENTIST SAY9 THAT HR CAN CREATE LIFE." Headline. State and Hohman street merchants might induce nim to pay a visit to the Hammond city hall. NOTE that John D. will give turkjys to 100 of his country estate servants. This ought to revive hope in the breasts of his Whiting oil works employes that they will at least get Xmas cards from Jawn Dee. "AFTER CHRISTENING BABY GUESTS HAVE RIOT." Kankakee Democrat headline. Evidently copying East Chicago styles. THE Youngstown Vindicator ran a Thanksgiving page of adlets listing good things to eat. A doctor's advertisement was, also included. After all the Vindicator's ad man did have some sense of humor. THIS is the time of the year when a
lot of fool editors will begin to advise a lot of fool shoppers to do their Xmas shopping early.

precious cow is now a thing of the past. Who has not wandered out on the

that the patient cow getB out of chewing its cud? But this will be no more. A machine will chew the hay and germless milk will result. Whatever picturesqueness we lose In the rural parts
ill be made up by the convenience to
the fiat dweller in the city. we ex
pect that bye and bye every department house tenant will have a bale of hay and a milk making machine in the
pantry. Thus, while wine is grinding
the coffee hubby can feed hay into the machine. Just as likely as not the price of hay will now go up. It Is also possible that the city will take on a countryfled appearance as all up-to-date apartment houses probably will have to have haystacks on their roofs. CASE VS.

Following custom, both houses will adjourn soon after their convening at noon on Monday out of respect to the memory of those members who have died during the recess of Congress. The President's annual message will be received Tuesday. Decisions In some important cases, probably the Union Pacific merger suit and the hard coal cases, are expected to be handed down by the Supreme Court of the United States, when that body recoenes Monday after the Thanksgiving recess.
