ADRIFT WITH THE TIMES
CANDY TOWN.

CANDY TOWN Along the road to Candy Town The little children trip song of joy in every heart, A laugh on every lip. Oh. rosy dreams of peppermint And lemon by the stick, And chocolates and sugar plums- The kind so very thick! Oh what joy to finger there And eat and eat and eat, Until our eyes are bulging out, On fare surpassing sweet! And oh. how sad through half the night To roll and toss awake, Till mother finds a remedy To cure the stomachachel
 BLISS. A young man on the seashore sat, Where breakers lightly curl. His eyes were full of golden hair, His arms were full of girl.
 A FALSE NOTE. "The democrats have decided to sing campaign song to the tune of On the Banks of the Wabash. . ..Not at all appropriate" aWhy?"
 s"rhe campaign committee can't draw on the banks of the Wabash for con trlbutions.'
 HOME No matter where the wanderer Across the world may roam, He'll always stop to listen And tear in his eye will Gnsten When he hears the call of home. Though far beyond the oceans waste And miles of salty foam, His heart is sadly beating For the place of loves first meeting And the tenderness of home
 THE FINISH. "rhe 'Calliope King is dead, you say?' .yes. He has gone off on his last toot'
 HOW IT HAPPENED. ..He went to heaven in an automo- bile How was that?'' oWell. you see, he was very good man and his chauffeur failed to see an express train approaching"
 THEATRICAL. Ere long the dizzy chorus girl Will trip across the stage The hoyden of a music Wh1rl, And so become the rage with silded youths and married wights And baldheads In a row, Who always choose on opening nights The girly-girly show!

ed, sociable and democratic in spirit.
It seems to me there are few cities
in the state with less 'snobbery"
and so-called society than Bismarck.
The people are kind hearted, whole
some and congeniel, both among
themselves and new corners. The
friendships made here are sincere
and lasting. There is neither pre-
tense or formality The spirit of
: the people is best exemp1ified in the
character of the Commercial club,
who are ever ready to spend both
time and money for the best inter-
ests of the city, not only is this true

Wing MEANS BUSINESS
NEW CHIEF OF POLICE ISSUES
EDlCT FOR BISMARCk'S SEW.
ERAL UNDESIRABLE CITIZENS
TO LEAVE BY TONIGHT SOR-
ROW IN BLIND PIG RANKS.

Chief of Police Wing evidently
means business, and will endeavor to
rid Bismarck of several undesirable
citizens who ply questionable occupa-
tions both night and day. He has no.
tilted the bootleggers, FOUNDERS and
others to the number of perhaps a
dozen that they must shake the dust
Of the city from their heels by to-
night, and, moreover, that it must be
for good.
The northwest corner of Main and
Fifth streets is decidedly the worst
one in town, and Chief Wing has sig
nified his intention Of general clean
ing up. He says that from now on he
wishes it distinctly understood that
any man who loafs around that cor
ner, or anywhere else in the city, in
fact, without visible means of sup
port, will be promptly arrested and
dealt with according to law. He states
that if he cannot secure enough evil
dence to convict these men OF blind
pigging Or bootlegging he can and will
run them in as common vagabonds.

or's proclamation. The exercises
should not be held on the day previous
and the schools closed on Arbor day.
Every school in the state in session at
that time should be assembled as usu-
al, but, instead of the regular work.
the school should devote itself to Ar.
Dor day purposes. We are of the opin-
ion that teachers who simply close
school on May 1, without giving any
attention to the purposes of the day,
are not entitled to salary for that day.
County superintendents are requested
to so notify their teachers and school
officers. The state department of edu-
cation has prepared a manual, to
which we direct your attention. We
do not ask you to adhere strictly to
our suggestions, and shall be pleased
to know that you have substituted
something as good or better.
"On Arbor day the work Of the year
should be planned and begun, but it
should not end with the close of the
day on the school grounds. Improv-
ing and beautifying the school grounds
are excellent, but these are not the
only things which the teachers and
pupils Of our state can do. The work
Bismarck daily tribune., 1908-04-25

begun on the school grounds may be
the cause of vast civic improvement,
for work Of this kind spreads rapidly,
You may not accomplish all that
you may wish on May 1, but let a good
beginning be made. Plans to have at
tractive exercises and agreeable work
which will pave the way for needed
improvements. Interest your school
board in the work you hope to do.
They can do much toward the success
of it.
"We hope to hear of a proper OBJ
servance of this day in every school
in the state. Let all unite in giving a
new impetus to forestry work, civic
improvement, school house renova-
ton, school gardens and the improve
ment and beautifying of public
grounds
