It's Christmas next,
And, as of yore,
You'll buy your gifts
The night before;
AS just last year
You bought them all;
And year before,
If you recall.
Twas just last year,
And year before,
You raised your fin
And sadly swore
That if you lived
Till this year, you
Would plan a different
Way to do.
You'd have the whole
Blamed mess put by
Before this Christmas
Day drew nigh.
But did you? Nitl
Not you, you'll shop
This year till Santa
Makes you stop.
You're as near broke
Today, you know,
AS what you were
A year ago;
And next year
You'll mix in the crush
And make the same
Old football rush.

The COuaty Courts ACtIOn.

After mature deliberation and
and a thorough Investigation of
the question of drainage, as APP
piled to the Marais des Cygnes
river bottoms. the County Court
voted unanimously in favor of the
proposition. This ought to set
tie the matter and all the people
unite in one solid hearty effort TO
carry the proposition through to
a successful issue.
The County Court is composed
of farmers and land owners. All
of them are men of sound, prac-
tical common sense, good iudg-
ment, and are heavy tax payers.
We do not believe they would
place a tax upon their neighbors
unless they honestly believed
such tax would inure Ia the bene-
fit of such neighbors. They have
satisfied themselves that this re
suit will follow their act and are
perfectly willing to let subse-
quent events prove the correct.
ness of the position they have
taken. That their Judgment will
be amply indicated, the writer
has not the slightest doubt.
The action of the Court how.
ever, may not be final. There is
opposition. This will now pro
badly take definite shape. A
lawyer or lawyers will be con.
suited. He or they win give them
learned advice Ms TO what they
can do-for a fee. The bigger
the fee the better the lawyer.
Some kind of a suit, (probably
an iniunetion) will be commenc.
ed, and deferred from term to
term while the lawyers study up
what 10 do next, and finally the
case will be tried and lost 10 the
opposition. OF course the court
or jury, and possibly both, made
eight or ten closely written
type writer foolscap pages of
errors, and an appeal will be
taken. In about two years the
case will be again lost to the OPP.
