Celebrated SONS Birth.
A son was born to Mr. and Mrs. Gill
Finch night before last which caused
the father great rejoicing. his other
eight children being daughters. Mr.
Finch celebrated the advent OF a male
heir by hosting a flag. building a bon
fire and shooting off a gun twenty-one
times. Neighbors objected to the rack
ct and Summoned City Marshall Rake
straw, who ordered Mr.. Finch to ap-
pear before Justice Golding the next
day and answer the charge of disturb
ing the peace.
After Justice Golding heard Mr..
Finchs story he let him off with a
reprimand. He told him that Hopkins
wasn't in Spain, and even If it was
nobody but royalty had the right to
make racket over a kid. Somewhat
crestfallen, Mr.. Finch promised he
would be less noisy the next time.
Advocates Family Toothbrush.
At the regular meeting OF the Do
nestle Science department of the Wo-
mans club Monday afternoon tooth
brushes their selection and care" was
discussed Mrs. Vincent Vining scor-
ed cheap toothbrushes. She averred
tire family good toothbrush for the en-
tiref amily was better than half
dozen poor ones. She didn't believe
in cheap individual toothbrushes.
Candidate at Wife's Urging.
| A special election to fill the vacant
office OF constable will be held at the
city hall next Tuesday. The candi-
dates are Sam O'Strander and Jube
Janery. Sam is the republican organ
ization's candidate. nominated in eau
Gus. lube is a candidate of his own
choosing. While Jube is a democrat, yet
he is one running independent by petit
ton.
lube was one of the few democrats
at the last presidential election who
| didn't shed crocodile tears over the
United States robbing the poor FLIP
pinos of their independence. and then
forget all about them after election
was over.
While the Hay Press is the official
frankness in the constabulary contest.
It amt often that a candidate comes
out bold and fiat footed and admits he
wants the Office and it's emoluments;
that he has no lofty ambitions to serve
his constituency and country.
There is no humbugery, no pre-
tense, no sham, no bogus patriotism
about Jubes position. He SCOTS at
all this so-called party fealty and 10y
atty to country so much affected by
candidates for office, which after all is
so per cent desire for office and 1 per
cent patriotism. lube comes out
frankly and says he is after the con-
stabulary because he wants it; that he
is a candidate, not at his friends solicit
tation, but on his wife's urging.
Being the official republican organ
the Hay Press can't openly espouse
IJube's cause, but it secretly hopes that
his frank avowal Will be rewarded by
his election.

laundering Proof Reading.
We were at the county seat last week
to get our share Of the delinquent tax
list printing. Whenever we go out OF
town and leave our foreman TO correct
proof, our hair turns a shade grayeI
when we return. Here are some of last
weeks proof reading blunders.
No. !. We said that the Rev. Peter
Blume, presiding elder Of the Dutch
Reformed church of this district. was
in town Tuesday. The compositol
twisted Dutch Reformed to Dutch De
formed. which our foreman overlooked
No. 8. We wrote that lack Zeiglel
had bought a fat derby hat at the
Zion church rummage sale. which wa:
like those affected by Dutch comedian:
on the stage. The compositor made i
Dutch Canadians. and our foreman
failed TO correct the atrocious ineon-
gruity.
No. g. What follows was so bald {
blunder that il looked like intentional
even malicious horseplay. In speak

Lenfesty Link we wrote that BIZ
