We all sympathize with Robert Louis
Stcyensons:
How do you like to go up in a swing,
Up in the air so blue!
Oh, | do think it the pleasantest thing
Ever child can do"
So we are disappointed that the annual
crop of park swings is so far behind the
sign of life. Would it not be well to
sit them up before the grass ON the com
mon gets so high as to hide them from
view?

We wish that Vulcan would persuade
Jupiter to let him put in a telephone line
for him since if he owned a line of his
own he might be more careful not to
lim his thunderbolts at other peoples
uses and generally throw their line out
IF order. He ought to be instructed also
N the matter of forestry since that sub
ect does not seem to have been in the
when he was in college. Why,
)nly last week with his electric fluid
he ripped the bark off a tree standing
n the wall between Martin Perry's pas
ure and Wilmer Turner's moving and
hat when Mr.. Turner was only the
ength of the field away, peacefully hoe
ng his corn.
