so BAD ITS GOOD.

Grady Record:
Grady is a busy little town on New
Mexico's plains.
Where the sweet kaffir corn grows
whenever it rains.
We find by careful estimation,
That something less than a thousand
will cover it's population.
1t is now my intention,
Some of its most prominent citizens
to mention.
Horn is proprietor of the big lumber
yard also the city hotel,
Just one block west and two north OF
the public well.
Stanfield is wide-awake and all alive,
He runs a grocery store and chew
ing dive.
City Marshal Stinson is the "nesters"
hardware man,
He sells them axes 10 cut thehir posts
and Katy Dds" to break their
land
The next business man I will mention
is Howard. the blacksmith.
He does his work we'll and Is nice
man to do business with.

/ Then there is Sparks he runs the big
feed store.
Also a wagon yard al his back door.
Riddle in his little store so nice and
neat,
Sells everything from SOW bosom to
candies sweet.
The village doctor is always ready
rain or snow,
To the suffering "nesters' shnck in
his auto he'll quickly go.
In his drug store he mixes the drugs,
Filling small bottles from large jugs.
w. c. Harrel is another credit to the
town,
busy selling groceries from daylight
till the sun goes down.
And Smith is courteous to every one
that comes,
His little grocery joint is always full
of idle nesters and buns.
We should not forget the village bar
ber so big and stout,
That's where the boys all go to get
their whiskers pulled out.
Nelson and Baker are the men who
put the prices OF dry goods down
They have the largest stock of dry
goods in town.
They also own the opera house as
everyone knows.
Where the famous Grady troupe hold
their shows.
They play like Paderewski and sing
to beat the band
If the audience is slim then they
raise sand;
When they have all gone through
with their parts without a blund-
er,
They say If the public does not appre-
ciate a good thing they may go to
thunder.

Nav Make His Ears Rurn.

Did you ever notice that talk"
doesn't hurt a man much? Perfec-
ton isn't looked for in man, and
when some one tries to injure man
by ranting about a few faults he has,
the absent one who is probably at
tending to his own affairs. is elevated
in the hearers estimation, while the
informant is lowered accordingly. If
man knocks along, doing fairly well,
people realize that while he has some
faults, he has more virtues, and they
are charitable enough to overlook
these faults.--Elida News.

munication from Mr.. Leech yesterday

ries an annual salary Of 81 200. He there
upon handed his resignation to the pub

The reasons FOR my resignation re-
suited from a difference of opinion as to
how the business of the buildings divi-
SION, or winch have had charge should
be conducted
Mr.. Schmitt explained. further, that he
and his section chiefs are responsible for
the preparation of drawings specificat lions
and estimates for improvements to be
made to the government printing office
or for new machinery to be installed. II
has been the custom. he says, for the
chief Inspector and purchasing agent to
superlntend the installation of the new
machinery or the execution of other
specifications prepared by the buildings
division.
To this system Mr. Schmitt objected
maintaining that after the award for the

made. the chief inspector and purcha sing
agent should turn the execution of the
specifications over to the buildings divi-
sion which prepared them.
In his contention Mr.. Schmitt, it is
stated, was Overruled.

PIGEON CALLS ON DeGRAW.
Post Office Official Receives a Visito,
Through Window.

Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
DeGraw had an unusual caller yester-
day afternoon. when a large brown and
white pigeon flew in the window and
gravely walked up to Mr. DeGraws desk
without seeking the formality of an intro
duction. 1t was at first supposed that
it was one of the large flock of pigeons
that make their home in the post office
tower. but as those birds know the de-
partmental customs too we'll to walk in
on an official in such a manner it was
decided to look the caller over. Being
quite tame he was picked up without
difficulty and found to be a carrier pig
con with a ring around his leg bearing the
inscription IS A 33574''
Mr.. DeGraw's office is well known as
the headquarters of the rural delivery
carriers but this is the first time he
has had call from carrier of the
feathered variety Under the circum-
stances. however. it was probably no
more than a natural error. Being of a
hospitable nature, Mr.. DeGraw ordered
that his guest be properly dined and sent
on his way rejoicing.
