Winning Knife for Fitzgibbon

There's a man in this Office" said
Johnnie Burke to his friend, Sol Olson,
who's eternally borrowing my knife
Now. l don't mind any man borrowing
my knife or anything else l have, but
FitzGibbon-that's the fellow 1 speak
of, you know him-has habit of leav-
ing my knife lying In exposed places all
the while, where other people come
along and gather it in for safekeeping
A large part of my time, consequently,
is spent in chasing that knife Some
times the janitor has it and sometimes
the Office boy has it, and sometimes no.
body has it,
80, when I went out to Lagoon
when the school children were all there
Friday, / got mixed up with a crowd
of little fellows and little girls that had
gathered in front of the place where
you throw rings around knives-only
you don't.
Me for the knife game says I, TIL
buy FitzGibbon knife and thus pur-
sue a policy of protection for my own
self Whereupon 1 lighted upon
likely-looking presidential timber in the
way of a kid with two inches of
freekles on his face, red hair, dirty
hands and pop bottle in his hand
with straw in it.
Can you win me one of them
knives, Jack?' I asked.
I shore kim said Jack
SO I staked Jack to a dime and he
bought five rings. The rings slid grace
fully into the receptacle placed TO re-
ceive them after they had lodged all
the knives.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1907-06-09

Gee, I'm sorry, mister. but 1 come
close onct, didn't II
You did that for a fact. Try ii
again
SO Jack tried it again, with worse
results than before.
You're a bum shooter 1 says. You
try it, Missy and 1 staked a pretty
little girl with q wad of chewing gum
in her mouth big enough to stop one of
the leaks in the city administration S
financial strong box. But missy came
only close. Another try and missy was
marked off the board.
g Now, if you kids will watch me.
I'll show you how to win this knife l
says. So / buys rings whole lot and
shoots and shoots. but 1 didn't come
any closer than Jack or missy, although
1 put the reverse English on and did
all kinds of fancy outSand in-curve
work.
Meanwhile, everybody else that
bought rings got knives, some of them
good knives, too. / tried another kid
or two, but luck was against US. and
when / didn't have more dimes l was
out so cents
well, what did you do then-go and
buy a knife-~for FitzGibbon?'' asked
Sol.
mo, a fellow told me that if anybody
gives anybody else a knife or any other
pointed or sharp instrument it is
bound to cut the friendship. So l fig
ured that FitzGibbon's friendship was
worth a good deal more than a two
dollar knife, and / concluded to take no
chances. I'll take my satisfaction out
in keen, cutting, sharp and pointed re-
marks.

played truant and. being suspended they
were informed that they would not be al

Times Have changed Indeed

An exchange says that the times have
changed in many ways In former times
when a man got pain in his stomach his
wife laid d hot stove lid on him and the
next morning he was ready to slop the
hogs, feed the calf and kick the cat. Now
it he gets an uncomfortable feeling back
Of the waist band the doctor calls 1t APP
pendicltis, lays him on d table, cuts
hole in his anatomy and he-dies, maybe.
Again, in the olden days you could take
your razor or your jack-knife and trim
your corns, put on your boots and pillow
all day. Now if you even scrape the top
of your horny toe blood poison sets in and
off comes your leg This is strenuous
age and don't you forget it.

Greatly Appreciated

The citizens of Belding certainly have
many coed qualities and in nothing do
they appear to better advantage than in
their good Judgement and liberaty. Their
very liberal subscriptions toward our pipe
organ fund is evidence Of the one. and
the attendance Of over one thousand at
the Passion Play demonstrates The other
The lessons drawn from the life work of
Christ were greatly appreciated by the
citizenship of the Silk City and more men
heard the gospel story and we're touched
deeply by it than could have been reached
by the churches in their regular services
in years.
AS pastor of the Congregational church
want to express my appreciation Of the
interest the business and professional men
manifested in the study Of the life and
philosophy of Christ, and also wish to
thank them for their attendance and the
interest they are taking in our Sunday
services N. j. Myers
