A couple of men were before the jus
tice the first of the week for violating
the game laws by shooting quail.
There is time for every thing and the
time to shoot quail is when the law
allows it and no other time. Our laws
are made to be obeyed and whoever
f violates them is likely to receive his
punishment for his trouble. There is
but one way to protect the birds and
| game not only in this state but others

/ Our townspeople were ever known
!, to respond nobly to a just and worthy
call. Time and again have they
i shown their charity and generosity to
! those suffering or in sorrow or distress.
, This week the citizens raised money
to send E. G. Evans, who has been
suffering long time with cancer on
e his face, to Dubuque where he will
/ have it doctored. They not only pay
t car fare but all expenses while there.
They could do no nobler deed than to
help one thus in distress, as such deeds
but draw community closer in the
t bonds of charity.
= The school entertainment Monday
night in the court house was very
pleasant affair. Everyone feels inter-
!. ested in the work of the children and
!. of the public schools. Prof. Hooker
; has taken no time from the regular
| work of the children to devote to out
! side work and his efforts along this
' line are not only commendable but
:. should receive the hearty support OF
: the patrons. Nothing helps a child
: along more than to appear successfully
in public. 1t makes them stronger
; men and women when they are grown
and more useful citizens. Every time
: they appear it simply overcomes a
7 natural timidity and gives them new
) and vital force. We are glad of these
Z entertainments and trust they will be
Z kept up.
