last issue of the Gazette with
slight notifications:
I'VE certainly thought Post
Muster Pursell would lift up his
voice in defense of his party. We
know he ls not afraid. de has
always come to the front when his
party had anything to fight for -
His failure to accept our challenge
10 meet Senator Coble convinces US
that the T.. NJ. does not deem his
party worthy of his championship.
If that Is the reason. and there cer
tainly can be no other. let the peo
pie so understand it. We will give
the Republican Committee another
week to accept or decline our chal-
lenge. Silence on their part can
only bs construed into fear cf con-
sequences. They have no more gal
liant end gifted champion than Post
master Pursell, and If they cannot
secure him to champion their cause
against Senator Coble, they had
better surrender and give up The
fight"

It Won the Writer q ThraShiDg.
The following is sample of q Friday
afternoon composition which Adam
Biglicr wrote while boy at school.
We may add that Adam Biglier was
soundly thrashed for it: ga school
ma'am is verb because she denotes
action when you throw paper wads at
the girls Switch is conjunction and
is used to connect verb school ma am to
the noun boy. This is compound SEN
tence of which boy is the subject and
switch the object. First person, plural
number, hellish case. A school ma'am
is different from boy; boy wears pants
and school ma'am wears her hair all
banged on the forehead. She puts paint
on her face and has some big fellcr
come and take her home. Ma says a
school ma'am never gets to be older than
1s until she gets married. 1t takes two
school ma'ams all day to cook dinner.
