A Brief Effort

The poet MARBLES of the strand,
The sandy dune.
There are not many rhymes at hand
For June.
He can't produce woidy lay
Or lengthy rhune.
There are not many rhymes today
For June.
And so the poet curbs betimes
His little tune.
Alas, there are not many rhymes
For June.
-Kanass City Journal.
Now why don't the "Iimited" poet
Groom,
To the nymphs OIL rim of the harvest
moon.
And why don't he speak OF the ice
cream spoon,
Or other spoons that begin in June,
And end in August "all too soon. "
He's as mad as bug, and as wild as
loon,
There are thousands of words tc
rhyme with June.

the nice building Besides, it would
be useful and helpful to the pupils

HAS DONE WELL IN
SHOW ME- STATE
r. A. Crockett, a Native of
Tazewell, Prosperous and
Happy in the West.

Mr.. r.. A. Crockett. Stanberry, Mo-,
who was called to TazeweIl.. last eek
on account of the sad death of his
brother, DR.. Henry Crockett, is spend
ing week or two while here, visit
ing his relatives. He will make a
visit TO his sisters in Bland county
and in BueIield before returning 30
his home.
Mr.. Crockett left Tazewell in 1878
with little of this worlds goods ex-
cept wife and children. His wife
was Miss Susan Witten, daughter Of
the late Jas. II. Witten. of this
county. He went in Missouri when
lands were cheap, and after working
around for while rented farm, and
later bought small tract, and pros
pered. He now owns 61S acres of fine
land, and raises a large number of
stock of all kinds, including large
nubmer of mules.
His most valuable asset, however,
has been family of 16 children, IA
of whom are Iiving-5 boys and 9
girls.
Two daughters are married. One
son is farming in Untah, and another
practicing medicine i'm Stanberry, a
town of 2500 population, 5 miles from
the Crockett home. The married
daughter lives i'll Gentry, Mo.
These facts will be of interest TO
Ia Jewell people, who will be glad To
know that son"of the sacred soil, Z"
is prospering in the state where moth
ing is taken foI granted.
One thing we learned from n con-
versation with Mr.. Crockett, that the
mule is the same the world over. lie
raises good many mules, and knows
them like book. A short time ago
he was driving n long-legged sleepy
mule hitched TO a sping wagon. He
cut the mule with the whip, just n
light tap TO wake him up, and the
mule let fly, his heels coming clear
up overt he dashboard into Mr.. Croc-
kett's face, filling his eyes with dirt
and gravel. When he got home he
told the boys to go right heard and
sell that dog-goned mule, before he
did some damage sure enough.
You can never tell about n mule.
Like Tom Heldreth's old Maud, and
Stephen Rosenbaum' black, long
legged, lank mule, they are constan-
tly playing some devilment.
