Crumbled Pages Reveal Laughs, Customs of More Than 20 Years Ago JUST POOR SERVICE The management of the Chicago City Railway company has promised repeatedly to improve the miserable street car service on 63rd st. Every car is loaded to the doors, and even strap holds are at a premium. Not one-half enough cars are run at the rush hours, and it is a common thing to see from a dozen to 20 people waiting at a crossing, while the already overcrowded cars pass them by.

There is no excuse for this, and our aldermen could, if they would, have some changes made, and any change would be for the better. NEW FIRE CALL New telephone sen-ice has been secured at the Southtown station at 64th st. and Wcntworth so that all fire calls coming from the territory south of 39th st. may be sent In by calling "Wentworth 0" instead of "Main 0" as formerly.

RUB IT IN HARD. A NEW WALK A new walk is coming in for the ladies. It is different from any walk that was ever seen, though in certain ways it resembles the Grecian bend, which was the ambition of our mothers and grandmothers of 1870. The new walk will be the military walk with certain Improvements and changes. To get ready to walk stand erect and throw back the shoulders.

Suggestive pictures, suggestive music, and suggestive vaudeville skits are largely responsible for our modern crime wave, says Reverend Yarrow. "This Is Sensual Age" "This is a sensual age," declares Reverend Yarrow, "and publishers of obscene literature, producers of sexy motion pictures, and writers of burlesque sketches make fortunes from their trash, which is damning the young and old alike.

"Nearly all newstands have on display magazines whose covers are nothing more or less than morbid paintings. The movies are no better. "Many of them are both in title and theme. Then comes the stage that often kindles sensuality by deliberately dragging motherhood and all that it means into the gutter by indecent Jokes. "A person doesn't have to be a preacher to understand what the power of such suggestions will do.

"Overdose of Degradation" "Psychologists of our great universities say that it can wreck a human body and soul quicker than anything else, on the other hand, they also say that power of suggestion can make a man great quicker than anything else. "America is suffering from an overdose of degrading influence and the only thing that will remedy the situation is a knowledge of the law of God. You can find it in the Bible and physiologies." u.

Thnt buildinjr on Stony Island have housed hospital for humans instead of cats and dofjs. Instinctively, one walked softly down the corridor and spoke but a trifle above a whisper. Even the atmosphere was that of a regulation hospital, tainted with the faint clean smell of antiseptics and "I thought dogs always made a lot of noise!" I whispered to the attendant.

Through an opened door on one side. I saw the gleam of surgical Instruments In glass case and the scrubbed whiteness of a metal operating table. A wire door guarded the entrance to the ward. It was a huge room, lined with three tiers of cages. Curious eyes peered at me as I entered.

A few tails wagged cheerily. Sound of sniffings, snuflllngs. of furry bodies rubbing against the Iron network of the cage doors. Suddenly, bursting like a rocket of sound in that quiet room, came Indignant and angry barking. Curlrcl In Corner "Hush, Queen I Hush, keep quiet!" the attendant was beside the cage of a big dog with a reddish coat and long cream colored muzzle.

Queen was curled in the corner, and by her side three tiny balls of fur waddled around. The dog paid no attention to the commands of the attendant. Her head was raised stiffly. Her cars were raised alertly, and her eyes were fixed on me. She stopped barking and growled.

I stared at her, at the pups, and she began barking again. Quite plainly I was being resented and told to get out. Finally Quiets Her The attendant finally quieted her. "She thinks you're here to take her puppies from her," he sold. "This isn't her flrst litter and she's grown wise, I guess.

She won't let any one touch the pups and raises a frightful row when her owner comes to call." "Are many dogs sent here when they're going to have pups?" I asked incredulously. To me there seemed something quite wrong about the proceeding. "Of course." he was surprised at my question and my wonder.
