MR. C. N. FASSE TT BECOMES ATTACHE OF OUR EVENING CONTEMPORARY. With t'..e direct assumption of the business management of The N'ev. s-Times by Senator G. It. Summers, yesterday. Mr. C. N. Kadett, who for the pa.st year and more has acted for Mr. Summers, as hi personal representative in a managerial way, has resigned and become associated with the Tribune. Since obtaining control of the paper a little over a year ago, Mr. Summers has been planning to assume direct charge of its business affairs, Mr. Fassett being retained pending that consummation. Mr. Fnssett was really the founder of the morning edition of The News-Times, tracing his association with it back to the Morning News, of which he was editor, and then to the Sunday News, which was of his making. In his new employment he is to have a column on the editorial page of the Tribune, fashioned after The News-Times "Melting pot," of which he was editor here, to be known a.s "It's All In the Slant." After this manner another feature introduced in the city by The News-Times has been tal n up by our contemporary, after we have first popularized it. "On the Aisle" by W. W. Dunkle Is a previous one. However, we are used to acting a.s the pioneer of new ways; of blazing wanted trails, aiul, accordingly too, as in the case of Mr. Iunkle, who was promptly succeeded in the Sunday threatrical section by a column entitled

. 1 "With the Stars." by Will Fink, the "Melting Pot" will

go on. It is up to the staff and watch it make good. Why, there are a half dozen of the makeup, every one of whom think they can do ii and back "It. Ij. T." off the boards at the lirt throw. So this morning you have their start. We haven't read it, and unless they hold us to it, we won't. We never did read it. Meanwhile a word for Mr. Fassett. His presence will be decidedly missed about The News-Times ottice; a gentleman of kindly and considerate ways, for whom all of us. In all departments, entertain large respect. He is bettering himself no doubt, and it Is our good wish. The friendships thnt he made here will always be remembered and cherished. It is mir good word.

soon act uires a jiersonality of its own. It is the paper that talks. A newspaper is a veritable "Melting Pot" that absorbs all the individualities thai go into its making'. It h? the average of them all. F.ven though Mr. Fassett was the editor of The News-Times "Melting Pot" therefore, and Mr. Dunkle's "On the Aisle" was his idea, it was The News-Times that gaVe those

! features their start, and nursed them before the public

e. Thev were News-Times features first, but let it. pass. We presume we will have to continue offering suggestions in newspaper enterprise to our contemporary, and to .ie department authors a popular standing, in order that it may then secure them to bring it up from the rear. Indeed, no. we are not ill-disposed toward the.e department author that they should have b com missionaries of modernism in such a held. It i rather to their credit.

A news item Bays that court house officials get cigars for issuing marriage licenses at night and out of office hours when elopers rush pell mell for South Bend to cast their anchor in the sea of matrimony.

imrsi: with pjuii)i:nt. (Pittsburgh Dispatch, Ind. Ttep.) Although the latest contribution of the president to the preparedness literature of the day, words spoken at Uacine Wis., In which he advocated tha the government make Its own war supplies, may not be as clear as some might wish. It "at least should be received with general acclaim in the hous of representatives, for all the reports from that quarter agree that however fome of th? members may be opposed to preparedness, they are showing wondrous unanimity in hustling to get a munitions plant or something similar for their districts. The president says he is in favor of the government manufacturing munitions' in order that' "the government may control the prices at which these article will b; sold to it." and in the next breath declares: "It is not necessary for us to protect ourselves against those who would make money out of the n?cestfities of the nation. There are adequate means of defending ourselves and we will u.e those means." "It is not suspected that the executive had the situation in the house In mind when he made the remarks quoted. He was condemning those who charge that the demand for preparedness has sprung from persons "interested in supplying the government with instruments of war." But coincidences have a habit of bobbing up, and there might be no harm in the warning of tho?e who would take advantage of the necessities of the nation applying somew here else than directed. A review of the bills introduced I. the house calling for the erection of munition plants, armor plate factories and the like, shows that few of the members have been negligent in this phase of preparedness and that, should all the proposed pro-

name "grippe" had been imported by the time Tyler was president, for the dJseaes was then known as "Tyler's grippe." These and other entertaining facts about it were published several years ago in the New York Tribune. "La grippe," the French word for influenza, la figurative. It has found wide acceptance because It if graphic. In the United States we sometimes spell it "grippe" and sometimes "grip." There's no misunderstanding as to its meaning, either way It is spelled, but to save time and attain simplicity we should call it "the grip." The French have othr figurative names for the disea?, such as "petite post," "petit courier," "grenuie." 'follette." "coquette" and "la generale." The Germans, too, have humorously figurative names for it, such as "blitz-catarrh" (lightning catarrh), "schlaf-shusten" (sleep cough), "huehnerzirp" (crowing), and "modefieber" (fashionable fever). The books say people had the grip as far back as 1323. Medical science has made little progress toward a cure. Pfeiffer found an influenza bacillus, but nobody has found a way to catch and kill it. It is easily enough caught in one ser.se, but killing has not yet been achieved.

Persons confined behind prison bars are not permitted to hoar the message of salvation, only as Christian workers arc permitted to bear this message, and workers are only allowed to carry this message by permission of the officials of the jail.

In the last Saturday's issue of your paper there my" case about complainirg before the board of public safety was related in such a way, which less or more blames me. so plea.se accept this explanation about my right cause and purpose. As a man with university education, I am too high to pay attention to petty annoyances, and as Christ's dlf ciple I have to suffer i -ueh more, so my complainings are riot to protect personally myself but to help the public betterment. For instance, many times I have been t ailed "Jew," and my complainings are not to show "that I am not at all and in any sense a Jew, nor to showthat I am a Christian minister and gentleman." but to protect a "man." to find out if a man indeed is a Jew, why he is to b unprotected, mistreated and threatened in a country so famous with Christianity and civilization Your? truly.

it: hut they didn't, if we may believe the stories by cable. Perhaps there isn't anything else to say, even though the old phrase has been worn threadbare. They haven't heard it in France so often as we have here. A compiny of Parisian women dressed themselves in uniform and marched to the chamber of deputies to demand that they get the opportunity to fUht. They wanted to enlist and ser.t to the trenches. At the entrance ti the chamber, we are a-ssured. the attendants turned them back with that old platitude that "Woman's place is the home!" No matter whether she is a woman in factory or oftie or harvest field, no mt.tter whether there is any home left or any family relationship for her. her place is the home and there -he must go. If there isn't a home, we take it, she ought to go out. kidnap a man and start one. The French women who have no homes, but are fighting just as ha.d as their m?n to save their country, will be so numen.ua after the war that the m?n will be ho;eles.-ly outnumbered. There being no homes and no ma es for hundreds of thousands of them with v horn to make homes in the sense always meant by the ant.s. it may become necessary, in the logic of anti-s'tr'f rasism, to demand asphyxiation for them.

An Agreeable Contrast The price trend of electricity has been steadily downward a point which we have previously emphasized and one on which we will have more to sav. For today, though, we ak you to consider the contrast that is presented in the steady reduction of electric rates. While the prices of food, clothing, fuel and staples of other kinds have gone up, the price of electricity has gone down. In South Bend the steady decrease in electric rates has covered a period of sixteen years. This interesting subject will be fully analyzed in a later Electric Talk. I. & M.
