A "slapptritis" is a board with a
cartridge in it, used, for spanking
initiates in the Praetorian Order.
When Mrs. Os-born of Ohio was tak
ing tha Queen degree, she was spank
ed with the slapperitis with the cai
tridge side, that caused her damages
for she is suing the order. This is a
warning to the orders to keep every
thing on the right side.
Henry Ford is like a saying in the
Bible, that no man knoweth what a
day may bring forth. So it is with
Mr. Ford. He has recently thrown a
bomb shell into the railroad world
by calling for a reduction of 20 per
cent in reduction on coal along his
lines. The Interstate Commerce
Commission disallowed that request
on the ground that the reduction
would constitute a discrimination
against other mining teriitory whose
coal product is sold in Toledo, De
troit and other cities along the Ford
railroad. The commission has allow
ed all other reductions in interstate
rates on the Ford railroad which he
has made on other commodities.
NEW TYPE OF CRIMINAL.
Hardly is there a paper issued from
the press that does not contain one
or more accounts of some highway
robbery on some back alley or on the
public thoroughfares of our cities
and towns.
Some bold bandit in the -broad
open day time walks into a bank and
walks out with his loot.
Some bold thief appropriates to
? own use some handsome auto
mobile standing in a public place
and makes a clean get-away. '
The U. S. mail ears are held up
and robbed and big pay rolls are
snatched and stolen. It is seldom
that burglary is reported. The old
fashioned way of breaking into
houses and blowing up safes has al
; inost disappeared, and the country
is face to face with a liew type off
ri iminai,'!-" made, it is -riaimeii, by
the war.''- .
and cities and report 'such violations
of tin- iiutomobile laws.
