JOHN D. GETS BONUS BACK. tVp have not forgotten thp splendid gifts that John D. Rockefell-or ucd to give tht I niver.ity of Chicago a decade or more ago. People would pick up their little old daily raier and go pop-eyed with amazement when they saw staring them in the face the intelligence that the kindly and beneficent S. O. king had just donated another million to Chicago university. Then the next day there would appear a little five-liner In the financial column that kerosene had gone up ano'I.er cent. Indeed, it became common talk when Rockefeller gave the university a million. "Now watch for a raise in kerosene." Well, it always came. A great fuss wa,s made during dying IMG by the news that the Standard was going to cut juicy melons for its salaried men an 1 a raise for the wage c-arcers. We grew suspicious immediately. Our suspicions were verified. Gasoline took a jump of anotber cent a gallon and is now two cents per gal Ion higher than it was a month ago. Of course the bonus and the raise had to he taken care of some way, but if the Western Union was to tack on two cents on the price of telegrams and the Wells Fargo raise express rates, and other corporations and business houses foilow suit when thev gave a Christmas present it would be a pretty state of things, wouldn't it?

SPOTTED SUNDAY CLOSING UNSATISFACTORY. The ministers of Uike connty's big municipalities who are agitating the question of saloon-closing on Sunday should either do a good job of it or let it alone: Taking the topography of the region the approximity of the cities of Hammond, West Hammond, Kast Chicago, Whiting. Indiana Harbor, Gary and the community of Burn ham it is only consistent to state that any movement to close the saloons in any one of these towns while the others remain open Sundays will not prove satisfactory or successful. Consider all of the municipalities as one city, divided by imaginary lines, and the logic becomes more apparent. Would it be advisable to close the saloons in one section of a city while those in the other part of the town were open? The effort of Lake county ministers to enforce Sunday law observance on the Indiana side is not alone sufficient. They should secure co-operation of Cook county officials. As long as Bumham runs wide open and West Hammond saloon3 are not closed there will be plenty of places for the thirsty to go of a Sunday without great expense or loss of time. The resorts in Bumham and West Hammond are going full blast and unfettered. There is something the good people of the church can look to as a greater evtl than the selling of intoxicants on Sunday. This game of reform is admittedly a hard job and the ministers are in the great minority, but that is ro reason why they should not do a good 'job while they at. it. Unless they want to see the streets of Hammond littered with drunks cn Sunday they had better close the bars in West Hammond and Burnham.

The Rrusiloft gown. Paul Poiret, the famous French designer, has used hatter's plush to tood advantage in fashioning the Eruailoff gown. The skirt of hatter's p.ush is really one of the mo-st extreme that has come from this fashion creator th 18 season. It exploits the irregular skirt, which, however graceful its lines may be, is not a thing of beauty. The flounce of the skirt is exceedingly full and is fastened onto the irregularly draped yoke by means of double stitched cartridge plaits the line of the hem approximating in its irregularity that of the yoke. Th coat of green broadcloth is cut witl a fitted skirt and has a fancy fastening at the waist line. The hat of brown velvet has a touch of green in the ribbon banding which encircles the straight crown and also in the tiny row of velvet balls suspended from the rim of the brim. A fancy ruff cf the ribbon finiahea the hat at the side front.

JEALOUS OF THE MILITIA. It is with much fuss that regular army officers assure us that the militia system is a failure and what'3 needed is a standing army ranging ail the way from 'S),(m to 4,000,000 men. There seems to be a systematic campaign under way on the part of many regular army men to undermine the National Guard. Kveryone from Chief of Staff Scott down to the newest major is rushing into print, with their views. That the guard system has its imperfections is evident and while it has served us the solution for the future is universal service. The burden should be generally distributed. If no other steps are taken, at least provide for the training of all physically and mentally fit youths between IS and 22 and then relegate them to the reserves for several years. Such a system would be an improvement on our present means of defense and in no little time would Rive, us the nucleus of a great army. The regular army officers find much agreement with their aims o properly defend the country, but some of them are talking too much and showing jealousy of the guard. Despite the great, handicap and the inefficiency of regular army officers, the militia has made a wonderful show

lile is a game between the fit and the unfit. You are not big enough j strong enough, brainy enough, to" beat the game.

Are you fit for the game? You are the captain of that delicate-bit of machinery which you call your "body." Don't maltreat it. Keep it always at the topnotch of mechanical efficiency. Your life and your success in life depends upon captaining your body with discretion. Be square with yourself. Never mind what the "other fellows' think do what that little inner roice within you tells you is right. That inaudible voice that seaks to you in terms of right and wrong is your conscience. You can't "choke it off" or stop your ears against it. George Washington once called our conscience "the spark-of celestial fire." and the father of our country knew what, he was talking about.

GIRL'S PLAITED DRESS. By Anabel Worthington. A little lady following in her mother's

footsteps could hardly ask for more than yokes, box plaits and the panel effect front and back in her new dress. In the model illustrated these features are successfully blended. To give diversity in the styles for growing girls the designers vary the detail touches, but keep steadfastly to the simple lines that are so decidedly girlish. In the dress pictured the yokes are cut rather deep, joined to the fronts and back, in each half of which a box plait has been introduced ; the fulness is loosely belted in such a way as to leave the front in panel form. Satin, silk or be'nealine for the collar, in a shade that will harmonize with the general tone of the dress, will be appropriate, and the sleeve cuffs and 1 It should be trimmed to match. The button decoration is new and pretty, but one may give time to embroidering the frock in silk or wool threads to advantage. This decoration will be suitable if the frock is made up in velveteen, serge, wool poplin or similar fabric. For a small girl who just plays, wash materials may be considered, with

contrasting color goods to trim. If you sizes 4-10 years. To make in size S relike the things you moke yourself you miires 3-S. yards 36 inch material and will welcome such a neat little model as yard contrasting goods.
