Says the Sulphur Democrat: The
defeat of the amendments offered at
the recent election was due more to
the people not understanding them
than to this desire TO condemn the
action of the legislature for its work.
Ask every man you meet what the
amendments we're and how they af-
fected the people and nine out OF
every ten will confess ignorance. And
why? Simply for the reason that they
had no convenient way Of ascertaining
what the amendment consisted of and
did not investigate. Voters had NJ
way Of finding out what was best, fog
they did not know what was submit.

What is the remedy? Simply the

Hard on the Messenger.

Tommy had been spanked by Miss
Manners, his first grade teacher, but
his next teacher had not reached the
point where she felt she could do jus
tive to him in spite of all his naughti-
ness.
Send him to me when you want
him spanked" said Miss Manners one
morning, after her colleague had re-
lated his many misdemeanors.
About II o'clock Tommy appeared
at Miss Manners door. She dropped
her book, grasped him firmly by the
hand, led him to the dressing room,
turned him over her knee and admin
istered punishment.
When she had finished she said,
Now, Tommy, what have you to
say"
please, miss, my teacher wants the
scissors" was the unexpected reply.
