WICHITA ELK'S TROUBLES
I'm Very Tight Place Out at Colorado
Springs.

c. A. Walk went to Salt Lake City TO
represent Wichita at the Elks' Carnival
ard has had a series of sore embarass-
nent since he left here which are Illus
1 trated in detail by Schnitzlers thunder
and lightning artist. His greatest en-
barassment came when he was arrested
at Colorado Springs and his own wife
denied him. 1t was this way, according
to the story told by Charles Mosbacher.
Cliff Sawyer and olher past grand ex-
allied rulers:
Walk is very fat and very jolly and
can laugh a key or so higher than Fred
Van Duyn. He was watching the Elks
parade at Colorado Springs with his wife
at his side. when the hoodmm wagon
drove up with six policemen in it.
we want you" said the cop in charge
OF the squad. Get in"
For what?" asked Walk.
No back talk; get in. We know you
robbed a train at Boulder
Walk protested.
i wasn't at Boulder" he said, never
saw the place. l am an Elk. coming back
from Utah-this is my wife. ask her"
Il don't know the man." said Mrs
Walk, never saw him before five min
utes ago-I am a respectable woman and
lie can't call me his wife"
Walk was paralyzed. He refused to
believe his ears. He craved permission
to have private interview with his wife,
but Mrs. Walk refused 10 listen TO him
and begged the police TO keep the man
away from her
Just then John Herrig came along and
a beam Of Joy list up Mr.. Walks face
That man there-a prominent mer-
chant in my town-knows me. Ask him
II ! amt all right"
DO YOU know this man." asked the
captain OF police.
John Herrig shook his head-never
saw him before"
Ny God. John. don't go back on me;
don't you know me, Wake. A. Walk,
the slot machine man"
Il know Walk as well as I know nv
brother but you aren't him-you don't
look a bit like him. Walk is a slim fel-
lcw-you can't work me"
When ne was asked his name and res
idence in the police court. he pulled out
"a S bin and handed il to the court
Judge" he said, L don't know my
lame or my place of abode. thought
/ did. but / don't. / thought my name
WAS Walk. and my place of abode Wioh-
ita. but it seems ! am mistaken. 7
thought that I was married and that
that lady over there was my wife. but
it seems 1t was an a delusion.'
Mr. Walk then learned that the whole
thing was an Elk trick; that the court
and policemen were al Elks and that.
in short he had been kangarooed out
OF s. HIS wife and John HerTis had been
rut next TO the fun and they carried out
their part admirably. And then Walk
vas dead anxious to be made a p0lice-
Ran to arrest some other fellow.

The West and South are rich and the

these agricultural sections cannot bank

Mr.. Glass says that the public schools
OF Virginia are the best in the South, an.
to Or. Ruffner he attributes this stpe-

Preparation for College.

While always a good paper. and es-
pecially good with It's Sunday Issues.
the Richmond Times of last Sunday was
the best seen for long while. We re-
fer more particularly to the educational
features it contained. which add so much
to its usefulness in Virginia at this time.
While all the contributions, several in
number, were good. the one that struck
us with more force was that from Pro-
fessor Blackwell. of Randolph-Macon,
regarding the preparation of young men
for entering the higher colleges.
In discussing this question Professor
Blackwell points out that so many
young men are sent off to college before
they are ready for entering same. They
have not had sufficient preparation in
the preparatory schools.
No one at all familiar with college
life will fail to recognize this truth and
the harm it does both the student and
the college. The student is carried along
through, or rather over, subjects which
he is not prepared to take in or digest.
with the result that no good is accom-
pIished.
1t is not our intention to so into a
discussion of this matter. since it has
already been done. but simply to express
approval Also to again congratulate
our contemporary on the good it is doing

The Times has frcauectly expressed

Il is quite certain that the strikers have
been in control of the situation and have
cxcrted their power, as they might rea-

are justitiable in committing acts OK

in their situation to make the most OF
their advantages This is war. pure ana
simple. and when war is on fighting men
hight with the weapons and the means
in their hands.
strikers have had things their own
way. and recently the Governor has sent
.roons 10 prevent riot. But so far as
we have seen the Governor has not
guaranteed protection to the mine ope-
rators in case they should attempt 10
operate their mines. Instead of that ne
talks about calling the Legislature to-
gett1er in extra session to pass COM
pulsory arbitration law.
The first duty OF the Governor is to
throw the protection Of State around
the owners Of the mines and give them
the opportunity of operating their prop
erry. If under these conditions they fail
10 operate, it will then be time enough
to take more drastic measures.
