are made very happy when he is
referred to in the great family
journal. All great philosophers
unite in saying that the greatest
happiness comes from making
others happy. Therefore Porhrio
can truthfully say he knows three
parties who are made happy by
the same token.
Mr.. L. S., former editor of The
Mirror had page story on the
Minnesota State Prison, in the
Minneapolis Sunday Tribune of
Sept. q. It was printed with the
approval of Warden Wolfer. He
says the way to reduce prison pop
ulations at least fifty per cent is
to stop manufacturing criminals
so rapidly. A very wise and COM
prehensive conclusion.
81 am going out soon,' writes a
neighbor, land I can tell you truth
fully what 1 think of The Mirror.
It is all right until you get to
the back page-too darned much
stuff about canaries, the black
chef, der schwarzer Davy, Angli-
Gus and Mistah Ford" The only
comment to be made on this is the
remark of a former President Of
the United States: cit is hell to
be popular hell to some folks.
Uncle Joe Cannon is a peach, a
pear and the whole darned nursery.
His humor is ripe, rich, rare, racy
and rambunctious. Announcing
his intention to remain in public
life, Joseph G.. Cannon, speaker of
the House of Representatives
delivered the chief address at the
banquet rendered by the bankers
of Chicago to the American Bank
ers Association at the Auditorium
hotel in Chicago recently.
He declined to commit himself
on the issues which confront the
bankers, nor did he give an in
king as to the attitude he would
take when the financial problem
comes before congress next winter.
"Men who speak too much here
tonight may be retired to private
life," he told the assembled bank
ers. "The people speak every two
years in our nation. l am not
willing to be retired. And if I do
not propose any remedies, [ will
not have to defend them.
II know an old man is often at
disadvantage. The men who
have been fighting with him drop
out and the young men become
impatient. When / was young
like most of you before me, I also
thought it took a long time for the
old devils to die out.
Il have had long service in
the national congress, longer than
most men. I have met there many
great men, many strong characters
who fought for what they thought
right. This is representative
government, no better and no worse
than the people demand. 1t thu
truth is to be told, the governor
of the states, the members of thu
legislatures and the members O
both houses Of congress are just al
good as the average constituent
who clothes them with power.
"In this great government you
are merely partner. You arr

Mrs. Carvelson's
 Pleasant Afternoon

Mrs. Carvelson, of Kemperville, en- tertained the ladies of Hot Springs on Wednesday afternoon, and most de- lightful time was enjoyed by all. The game of ''5o0' was played & while, and the game of "States"-.a guessing amusement in which individual maps in outline of the various states of the Union were placed on the wall and numbered, and the holder of the corre- spending number named tor tried to) the state. The guessing proved very interesting, and the first prize, silver napkin ring, was awarded Mrs Hall, while the second prize, pretty burnt wood cribbage board, went to Mrs. Price. In the early part of the guess ing Mrs. Moseley looked like an ''easy winner" but when she said the map of Texas, was the "state of Boston" her frst-prize chances went sglimmering. However. that lady was given nice consolation prize--a tiny corncob pipe.
 A splendid luncheon was spread dur ing the afternoon, after which social hour was pleasantly passed, and then, tho guests conveyances being in readi- ness, they started for home, arriving in Hot Springs about 8 o'clock.
 Those present were Mesdames Drake. Calderhead, Morrison, Bsvington, Hall, Price, Fehring, Sellandar, Moseley and Carvelson; Messrs. Drake, Yergin, Me Leod and Black; Miss Mary Drake, Masters Wally and Si Calderhead, Car. lisle Nellany and Byron Bevington.

At the close of the sermon he pre-
scented the cause of the, new college

class and several advanced students.
