forty-fve years ago Captain Iio,-
brooks company Of rebels from
Audrain county were tearing up a
railroad track between Mexico and
Centralia. The youth, then 10 years
old, and wild to be a rebel soldier,
went to Mexico with his father and
there he saw a group OF men tearing
up a Union flag and trampling on it.
The youth did not think much of this
bloodless style OF warfare and he APP
preached the crowd, saying; '''Nhy
the devil don't you go ou, and kill
Yankees instead OF trainpling on a
harmless ragi" One of the men
pursued the boy with a butcher knife.
This altered his ideas about the Com

Marvin Williams, the Noted Georgia
Humorist.E Entertainer, to Furnish
the Next Lecture Course Num-
Der on Above Date.

The next number Of the Progress
Club Lecture Course will be furnished
by Marvin Williams, the noted Geor-
gia Humorist Entertainer, known on
the lecture platform as the ''Live
Wire" He will be here at the
Krauss Opera House, Thursday even
ing, February 7th. He gave an n
tertainment at Knoxville, Iowa, and
here is what is said Of him there;
"'Some public entertainers come
up to their advance notices, but the
advance notices of Marvin Williams,
prodigal as they are, did not come
up to him. He surely stands in 4
class by himself as a public entertain
er. In pathos and in humor, quickly
succeeding each other, he had his
audience completely in his control.
He is surely ian artist without faw."
His first words caught the audience,
and he kept them caught throughout
the entire program. His arena scene
from Quo Vadis was marvellous. His
final selection, %portraying the temp
tation OF graft in a present day iegis-
lature, and the reward Of honesty in
public life, carried the audience to
the limit of appreciation. Let Mar
vim Williams come again, a large au-
dicnce will receive him."

As to being forbidden to catch eels on

haven't the faintest desire to catch eels

eels-slimy. wriggly, slippery. elusive

Furthermore, we consider It bad taste
for one to kiss ones wife in public at

by their enforced righteousness in the
matter Of boats and eeis. And so far as
are concerned the washing Of clothes, and
