the opening exercises. Just skip
down there to the lake and bring
up the ceremonial raptures.
"The what?" faltered Mrs. j.
ooh, and look of dubious CON-
prehension dawned in her face,
"you mean the bottle?''
s.Sure-now you're guessing
some. Did you think I meant the
lake?'

you would stop trying to make fun

"Do you think I had better knock

"What way?"
"That slang"
"What slang?"
"Barker!'
SWELL, don't they make sausages
out of canines?"
ooh, shut upr'
SWELL move this stuff into the

she ran inside the tent only to re-

week, was the cause of consid-
cradle comment on the streets
on account of a mistake in its
printing. The report showed
a balance on hand April 20 of

printed it appeared that a con-
siderably greater balance should
be shown. The correct state
ment of the state Of the ac-

@. E. Cannon, is as follows:
General Fund, overdraft $27405

Fire Fund ...... $50
Library Fund 5000
Cash on hand ..... 1865
Totals ........... $39073 $390.73
Mr., Cannon stated, regarding
the overdraft shown above in
the general fund, that the
amount overdrawn has since
been covered, but that there is
at present no balance Of cash
