It Is for your pleasures; for thi jaxation of brain and brawn. It is the “man-made” annual Bunday, Cover the clock! CHIEF SEATTLE. To the Garbage Department Fellow Citizens: An observant householder tells me that he sees your big wag loaded with garbage, being slowly pulled the several miles from their collection districts to the tideflats dump by horses, and with two men riding each load, It ocourred to him that it would be economy to have these wagons hauled tn trains, with a tractor furnishing power for the group, and With no men at all being carried ag pamengers. A few teams and a few men would be needed, of course, at either end for short haul Somehow the idea sounds mighty sensible to me. How does it strike you? ’ CHIEF SEATTLE. To Col. C. R. Forbes, Director Veterans’ Buréau Dear Colonel: Your nation-wide campaign to “clean up” all claims which exservice men may have on account of disability, vocational training, or compensation awards, deserves a ready response from vet erans. The tdea of going after the veterans instead of their having to unwind yards of tape to get action deserves commendation. CHIEF GEATTLE. To the One-Eyed Drivers Dear Folks: You may prevent serioun accidents and you may save some lives if you fix up your auto headlights. Nowadays about five per cent of the machines flit about the highways at night with only one headlight in working orde CHIEF SEATTLE. To County and City Officers Dear Budget Makers: In a few weeks you will make decisions that will be reflected in the pocketbooks next year of every taxpayer in Seattle and King county. Preparing estimates of the year’s expendi- ture: a werious Job. Consider it so, and remember that the home owner's taxes have reached the maximum. He wants @ reduction and wants it badly, Your duty only, gentlemen. CHIEF SEATTLE. To the State Highway Police Dear Officers: 1 want to assure you again that I'm gled to learn you're soon going to be on the job. I hépe you pinch every fool driver who darts out of a side road into traffic. I hope that you arrest the crazy men who try to bob ahead of the line and risk the lives of others Just to gain a little speed, 1 hope you swat the lads with the glaring headlights. And, grab the speed hounds who fall to slow down for the crossings. CHIEF SEATTLE. To Roscoe Drumheller, Collector of Customs Dear Democrat: Rather nice of you, Roses, to send in your resigna- tion, per request, so your republican friends can give the job to Ml Hartson.

Some of you are still charging 10 cents a cup for coffee. It's too much. Coffee, sugar and cream have come dowm considerably since you raised the price, When are you geing to lower it? CHIEF SEATTLE, To C. W. French and J. W. Worthington Promoters de Luxe: Smart tho you were, you reached the end of the trat!, They all do sooner or later—those that live by their wits, Terese Daurignac began her career at 18. She forged her father’s name. That was her start. Later she became the famous Madame Humbert and all France marveled at the extent of the fraud she di- rected. But she ended broke. John Law with his Mississippi Bubble almost & revolu- ton in France. He set two continents crazy. The shares in his enter prise multiplied 80 times. His get-rich-quick lure led thousands te the rocks, Over 100,000 in France alone were made beggars, The national treasury itself was entwined in the scheme and the great Bank of France was close’. When the bubble broke Law did likewise. He fied from Paris while the mob of suckers stormed the regency. Cassie Chadwick of Cleveland, next to Madame Humbert, the greatest woman blue-sky artiet in all history, lived a merry life and a moneyed one for a while. Bome of the biggest believed the dreams she told, and fell, But Cansie landed finally in the Ohio pen. Ponzi--but his career is too recent to need retelling. He, like all the rest, went flat at the end of the same old trail, a trail of broken hopes and broken lives, Like you, these were “master minds.” But were they? When the whole account was balanced, were they? For it's the finish that counts, in thig life; not the start. Anyway here's — place for a two-edged moral—directed both at the promoter and the one promoted: ‘The get-rich-quick business doesn't pay. The law ef compensation is against it, CHIEF SEATTLE. To Mayor Caldwell Dear Hugh: Thank you for joining in promptly last Monday with my litte urging that the street signs have their faces washed. ‘The letter you wrote to Superintendent Youngs carried a “kick.” J have # hunch that it will bring prompt results. You remark, “ disrexard of well-founded public complaint brings public employes inte a lot of unnecessary criticism,” is very true. A certain manufacturer of typographical machinery advertises “Type Is Made to Read.” So are street signa. I am giad we are soon going to be able to read ours, CHIEF SEATTLE. To Henry Ford Old Boy: You're a wonder! Another $45-$100 slash in the prices of your oftmentioned machines—the third big cut in a year! I like that, It means © great many families who have had to go by foot or on the street car can now afford to travel on rubber tires. And it foreshadows other lower prices, too. CHIEF SEATTLE. To the City Clockmaster Exteemed Sir; This is the second week’ that clock at the Corner market, First ave. and Pike st, has not been running. CHIEF SEATTLE. To the Numerous Drivers of Automobiles Dear Simpletons: Of course it's great to be funny—to speed up and honk the horn furiously just as some timid individual crosses in front of your bus, and then to slow down, with a grin, about three feet from the victim, But supposing your brakes wouldn't work just at this time, and you, youthful jokers, unintentionally caused somebody's broken rib? Also once I heard of a person who dropped dead from fright, without even being struck at all, Let's not be humorous drivers. CHIEF SEATTLE. To Councilman C. B.
