OSCAR HUNT, Sec'y.

A writer in one of the north
ern papers says that "the Japan
csc girl is never kissed, either
before or after marriage. Kiss
ing is looked upon as an absurd.
if not highly offensive, custom,
one OF the curious ecCentricitleS
OF the foreigners. " If the lit
tie Jap maid 5 complexion was
Of lighter shade and were she
to come over and let a Plans
lad kiss her just once, she
would not think so slightingly
of it any more. When the in
finitesimal tintinabulations of
concentrated Quiutesscnce of
double-geared supernal bliss
began to permeate her anatomy,
all such eccentric notions of
propriety would Immediately
vanish.

"A Committee Composed of One Reub-

of a Portion of Della

ware County.

On another page of this issue, we
hope to present to you, gentle read
er, an authentic and signed report
of the crop condition of the western
portion Of the county, to be kindly
handed us by Mr.. Z. II. Hoyt upon
the request of his friend and CO.
laborator in the preparation of this
report, Mr.. r. A. Denton.
Knowing the Importance of crop
statistics as they bear upon politics
of the county and desiring data from
which to foretell the coming COM
plexion of Delaware county capitol,
these two gentlemen appointed
themselves a committee of two, each
representing one of the two great
party organizations of the county. to
view the prospects over and while
we are not at liberty to tell what
candidates will be elected and what
will not, we will be none the less
pleased to publish the crop bulletin
as prepared by the gentlemen.
Messers Hoyt and Denton have
our hearty thanks in advance, for the
promise Of the article in question.
We can not under-rate the fatigue
they put themselves to in walking
| the six or eight miles between
There and Here with the thermome-
ter registering easily 100 in the
shade, nor will we forget Mr.. Hoyt's
kindness in leaving his automobile
There, the gentlemen having not
thought it necessary, of course, to
walk both ways. All in all, their
thoughtful courtesy in taking Sun
day-usually day of rest and COM
fort--to actually walk through dusty
fields, along parched roads in the
sweltering humidity of that day,
just to observe personally and at
close range as it were the maturing
crops will be appreciated, we are
sure, by every reader of their care
fully prepared article, as well as by
ourselves.
And the rumor that the automo-
! bile climbed the fence out in Adams
township, while the two boys were
prospecting for covies Of chickens,
and is now laid up for repairs, and
that one of the substantial farmers
of Prairie, feeling that it would be a
long trip home in such heat by the
tie pass route, offered them the loan
of a mule team and wagon-a court
esy Indignantly declined by the
automobilists-all of this, of course is
false, and we are requested to so an

probably be lowed in within night

that is because a cog or two was
