A new ruling in Ontario provides that citizens "may carry
liquor in puhlic." Jiut before drinking1 it not after.
If there's anything wrong with American business, maybe
it's the amount of attention the hard-working business man
gives to perfecting his golf stroke.
The report that a special congressional election in the
Portland district would cost $'15,000 causes one to wonder if
a new representative could possibly be worth that much.

CHICAGO JAYWALKERS j
Chicago, which is always on the move, is going to move'
with more precision, in order to make bettor speed. The pres
ent effort is directed especially at pedestrians. They are
being given a fortnight of intensive training, after which;
they will be required to obey the "stop" and "go" signals the
same as the motorists. Jaywalkers will be liable to fines as
high as $100. j
Portland has regulated pedestrian trarflc this way for,
some time but Chicago has two other notable rules that are
expected to help. Roller skates, kiddie cars, sleds and other!
"toy" vehicles are lulled off the street. Also women shoppers:
are forbidden to stop and gossip on the sidewalks of business
streets. Both of these reforms will expedite the foot traffic.'
lioth will be hard on those affected whether harder on the
children or the women is a matter for debate. j
Chicago crowds have always seemed, to visitors, to move
along the street faster than those of any other city. Rubber-'
necking outlanders are often bumped off the sidewalk by busy j
residents so intent on their own affairs that they hardly;
notice the collision. Chicago pedestrians seem to move
straight ahead, regardless of obstacles, as their collective
community does. With the new regulations in effect, the'
dawdling tourist will have to be more alert than ever, and,
step lively on the sidewalk as well as the crossing. j
