"Hick'rynuttin'"

I'd like to be boy again for just a
week or two,
And do again some pleasant tasks like
those l used to do.
Not go to school or saw up wood, or
any jobs like those;
Nor Sunday school nor visiting in my
best suit of clothes.
I'd like to be boy again without a
grief or care,
With heart elate and eyes alight and
spirits free as air;
And with my chums of old time days
with many laugh and cheer
Go "hick'rynuttin' in the woods
about this time of year.
Down there in Russell's wood lot, and
then on across the creek,
The old shagbarks are growing and
the nuts are hanging thick.
And through the laden branches where
the autumn breeZes play
We see the school house standing
where we studied yesterday.
We hear the old bell ringing and we
see the boys again
The boyish chums of yester year
who are today grown men.
o, how I'd like to be boy, once more
with joyous cheer
Go "hickrynuttin' in the woods
about this time OF year.
The hickorynuts are falling and the
leaves are brown and sere,
And back my memory takes to long
since vanished year.
Once more I roam in fancy through
the old Missouri hills;
Once more I loll in comfort by the
clear Missouri rills.
And round about are playing boys
and girls with spirits free.
While echoes of their laughter on the
wind are borne to me.
Id like to be boy again-the thought
my being thrills
And go 'hick'rynuttin' in the ole
Missouri hills.

along listened to the conversation a
few moments and then remarked:
THAT platform sounds wonderfully

lation ever since the first railroad in

Retrospection


Demetrius sat amidst the ruins of
his business and gazed at the images
of Diana for which there was no
longer a demand.
"Alas," he sighed, 81 missed my
opportunity. I should have organized
a life insurance company and bonded
my image making business. Then l
could have unloaded my image bonds
on the insurance company as an in
vestment."
Realizing, however, that it was too
late, Demetrius had to be satisfied

GOVERNMENT TO SELL
ALL MATURED TIMBER
DOES NOT MEAN DEVASTATION
OF NATIONAL FORESTS
Department of Agriculture Removes
All Restrictions Upon Shipment of
Lumber Outside of States in Which
Reserves Are Located

The department of agriculture has
decided to offer for sale all the mature
timber on the national reserves and
has removed the restrictions upon the
exports of timber from the states in
which forest reserves are located. No
limitation is now placed upon the ship
ment of lumber from the forest re-
serves, except those in Idaho and the
Black Hills reserves.
This does not mean devastation of
the national forests, but is a step taken
in line with the declared purpose of the
department to develop the national
forest reserves by use. 1t is the def
mite purpose of the department to i'm
prove the reserves by utilizing the ma
terial that is now fit for lumber, and
only the mature timber is to be sold.
In carrying out this purpose the de-
partment intends to provide for the
reproduction of the forest and the re-
stocking of those areas where forest
conditions are defective. Work of this
kind has been successfully carried on
for several years in the Black Hills re-
serve and has been begun with great
promise of success on the lands of the
Chippewa Indians in Northern Minne-
sofa, from which it is proposed to
create another national reserve.

DELIBERATE MISREPRESENTATION

The Los Angeles Express, in a frenzied endeavor
last evening to controvert sefevident fact that the
prohibition ordinance is prohibition ordinance, says
edtoriay:
1T is intended to close the open saloon and that
only. All other phases of liquor selling and liquor
drinking left they Restaurants may sell
liquors as they do now" etc.
If anything is calculated to show the hysterca
condition into which the Express has screamed itself
such a deliberate misstaement of fact is more than
sufficient.
In the same paragraph the Express has the eff
frontery to say: This ordinance appears another
page Of this paper and every voter should read and
study its provisions carefully"
Either the editor of the Express has read the
ordinance himself, If he has and understands plain
English he deliberately states that which is false,
Section OF the ordinance does not remove hotels
restaurants or clubs from the positive prohibitions of
sections / and 2, except far "vinous malt
liquors" are concerned, which under this ordinance
may be served Under certain conditions and in certain
places only-NoT as they are now. The sale Of
spirituous liquors Is absolutely prohibited in hotels
restaurants clubs under any conditions in any part
of those establishments.

about is deliberately deceying its readers. Which,

Wornan's Clubs
Friday Morning Club

Mark Twain might have been par
doned for having ears that burned yes
terday, and If the dust of Artemus
Ward is still smouldering peacefully
in its tomb it is not the fault of Fri
day Morning club members.
1t was decidedly woman's day at
the Friday Morning club and If there
were any members who were in doubt
as to the quantity and quality of the
humor of women the doubts must have
all been dispelled by this time.
The meeting was in charge of the
book committee, and women as HUI
morists" was the topic for the morn
ing Mrs. r. w. Brown exhibited the
humor of women as it appears in
poetry and Mrs. Mary Porter IIaines
as it is shown in prose, and it was
very evident that it might have been
we'll for the men who are humorists to
have been present to defend their
laurels Both Mrs. Brown and Mrs.
Haines kept their hearers in a round of
laughter all the time they were speak
ing, with their clever quotations and
remarks.
Mrs. Haines began with Jane Austen
and went down the list, pointing out
the humor in the works of women.
Mary Collier Graham was one to whom
she devoted much time, speaking par
ticularly of the subtle manner in
which she introduced humorous parts
info other stories
Mrs. Brown spoke Of the women who
introduced humor in poetry, concluding
with a few remarks about the much
loved rhymes of Mother Goose.
Mrs. Ernest K. Foster, who will be
the next president Of the club, was
present at the meeting and this was a
delightful surprise to nose of the
members. After the regular session
luncheon was served to more than one
hundred at tables daintily decorated
with pansies, corsage bouquet of the
blossoms being placed at each cover.

A BROAD.GAuGH VIEW

Il think the idea TO make II dry-to make It q Jay
town'-is about crazy to make Paris New York
dry; more Of farce yet, because Los Angeles It is
certain will in time become the greatest pleasure resort
on earth"
That is the Judgment Of a man we'll qualified to take
broad and comprehensive view Of the nosaloon
son 1t is extract from the letter printed in yes
terdsys Herald written by our distinguished French
American fellow citizen. Paul de Longpre
vast majority of the jealous advocates Of saloon
abolition unconsciously take view Of the real
situation They abhor the evils resulting from the
liquor trafHc, and inconsiderately assume that the
closing Of the saloons would lead to early soppage
Of those evils But person who has had opportuni-
ties to observe this matter in it's broad aspect be-
lieve that liquor consumption be eradicated by
legislative process. The person who looks at the prob
lem from a cosmopolitan standpoint that 1t is
neither practicable desirable to eliminate saloons
properly conducted, in a great city.
The bearing of this proposition on the future of Los
Angeles presented by Mr. De Longpre, is we'll worthy
of thoughtful consideration by every citizen The dis
tinguished artist sees, all farseeing and broad
minded men do, that Los Angeles Is today merely
stripping compared with the metropolitan stature Of
which it gives promise only few years hence. But
the brightest promise of city, as well as of an ndi
vdual, may be dashed and broken the result Of
misstep.
AS The Herald pointed out at the beginning of the
no-saoon controversy the average tourst-the travel
ing pleasure seeker-wll avoid town city that
rogates the right to dictate to him what he shall eat
what he shall drink wherewith he shall be clothed"
Any city that to prescribe in medical fashion,
what tourist shall will get the reputa
ton of Gay town"-one to avoid.
A great city be the narrow track Of
country village. Persons coming to Los Angeles from
every civilized section of the world. they doing
will accept castiron rules of personal conduct to
which they total strangers. And just in proportion
to the growth of the city will such castiron rules be
and more out Of place.
If Los Angeles is to be the great city which Paul
de Longpre discerns in the future and in which we
all have the fullest confidence then it must be kept
out Of the narrow groove into which wemeaning but
inconsiderate reformers would it.
Los Angeles is broad-gauge, double-track, stone
ballasted city. Make it "jay town'-a narrowgauge
sage brush and affair and instead Of becoming
the greatest pleasure resort earth" its farther
terminus will be the desert
