CIGARETTES

Here is a death notice that appeared
recently in the Fredonia Citizen:
fWilliam (Soda) Johnson Of Neode-
sha, died at the home of his parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. Wills Johnson, in that
town last Friday night. aged p years.
Soda's early death was largely due to
the excessive use of cigarettes He
was quite well known in Fredonia as
well as at home. He had generous and
kindly impulses. but in his premature
death paid the inevitable penalty Of
wrong living.
Commenting on the death of this
cigarette victim, the Howard Courant
publishes the following:
1T is said Soda johnson, before his
death, when he knew he was hopeless
ly ill., requested the town papers to tell
the truth about him and the cause of
his wrecked life, and also asked the
minister who conducted the funeral
services to use him as an awful ex-
ample of the effects of cigarettes and
other stimuIants. But will it be a
warming to other youngsters? It should,
but perhaps it viii not It seems that
most young boys with such tendencies
very much prefer going against the
game and finding out the consequences
themselves"
There are doubtless worse things than
cigarettes. It is also doubtless true
that many men use them without seri-
Gus injury to themselves. but they are
a good thing for a boy to leave alone.

HOW LONG. OH. HOW LoNG2

The Journal does not see how there
can be anything in the treasury report
but to take it to the court. Governor
Hoch cannot discredit his own report
for it is virtually his. The courts
properly try such cases, and there
they should go without loss of time
Lawrence Journal
How much longer does Governor
Hoch expect to delay before taking
some action in the treasury matter?
It has now been nine days since the
governor made the Morris report pub
lie. He had it before him for week
prior to that. He has doubtless known
in a general way for several months
what the investigation would show.
Why does it require so much time
and hesitation to decide what shall
be done?
Governor Hoch's attention was
called last March to the fact that the
statute of limitations would run in
the Garden City matter in August.
Ordinarily a public official would
hasten matters in the face of such in
formation. Yet the investigation was
delayed until Kelly was given the op-
portunity to escape prosecution on the
teehnicality of the statute of limita-

THE LAND OF OIAKE-BELIE.VTs.

Ho. the land of Make Believed
Land of boyaood's happy Dreams
Where the grooming fairies weave
Legends by the singing streams.
Where the child-heart loves to stay
With the tabled heroes grand,
And to hnger by the way
In the mystic Wonderland.
Summer sunshine fills the air
Where the bOy-heart's treasure lies
There is a bloom of flowers rare,
Azure-tinted are the skies;
There are shady hooks and dells,
Where the dreaTl-sprites Hnger long,
And the phantom Sandman dWells,
Luring Us with smile and song.
As Of old, we wander through
Meadow lands serene and fair
Where our boyish fancies knew
All the joys that linger there
Through the hills of Peace and Rest
Down beside the ShadoW-shore,
For the blissful days in quest,
Which have gone forevermore.
And we seek to learn the truth
OF the songs and stories told;
OF the legends of our youth
Legends which shall ne'er grow old.
OF the frOWning Bluebeard grim,
And the giants of the wood;
And the maiden quaint and trim,
Dainty, sweet Red Riding-HoOd.
All, the land of Make Believe!
Let its fantasies be told:
Let the grooming fairies weave
Dreamy Legends as of old
Let the children wander through
Its fairy borders hand in hand;
Know the romances we knew
In the mystic Wonderland.
