sunny JIM BURSTS
FORTH IN SONG
GENIAL TRAlNMASTER GETS
AWAY WITH AN INSPIRING
LITTLE POEM.

Sunny Jim" Brown has written q
poem. 1t sounds like a JOSH but its
on the square and. although nobody
thought 1t was in him. he has delivered
the goods. He is not making any noise
about it and be didn't offer II for pub
hcation. He Is too modest for that
But the rest Of the force refused to
see him hide his light under q bushel
and Kidnapped the effusion. While he
does not handle the typewriter with
quite as much ease as he does the rifle
and the fishing pole he is there and
his poem makes up for what it lacks
In what the long-haired genuine ar
ticle calls finish with its force and
directness. This is it,:
According to Schedule.
In the hall there's CONSERVATION.
And a heated conversation:
We conclude without ere thinking that
brakeman's lost his home
He declares that 1t is awful.
.As per schedule isn't lawful
That they couldn't railroad that way
on the "Old Jaw Bone
Then he tells a brother shack
That he'll have that same car back.
Or he'll turn the cussed railroad up
side down.
Then he cites a case or two.
Says he'll make them go n few
And IN his wild effnsion "bawls OUT
Hagerty and Brown.
He goes further to explain.
That these fellows give him pain
Ills the only railroad tween here and

Where they handle men that way;
And starting in today
They viii have to change their system
on the old \. P.
Then to the office HES
With INJURED in his eyes.
And he hops on sunny Jim" who's
sitting just inside.
He stalks up to the rail.
Sure, his argument can't fail:
And for his HAPPY home" he loudly
chdes.
There is Hiner on with Lake.
And Rathburn on the Snake
Two others iout on worktrain rye got
skinned year.
I've worked on seven different lines
More than twice that many times
But I've never got my 'bumpings" as
have since I've been here"
Then sunny Jim explains
With patience and with pains
Why the boys out on the worktralns
are exempt.
Why Hiner he can't get
AS he has no time in yet.
While Rathburn. working extra, has n
Today pre- empt.

Your argument seems sound.
And ] really can't see where you are

board again)
However. now and then
We have some gentl"f Omen

WILSON SAYS FARMER LIVES
BETTER THAN A KING,
Farmers of West Have Luxuries Kings
Didn't Have.

Washington, Sept. 20.-"The aver
age laborer is today living better than
Queen Elizabeth did in her time,'' said
Secretary Wilson of the Agricultural
Department, upon his return from a
months vacation on his farm in Iowa.
He was discussing the prosperous
condition of the farmers of the West
and the high wages of the working
man in the East.
Take the meat bills of the laborer
in Washington today" he continued.
"You will find that they eat meat
three times a day-most of them-and
what is more, they are not content
with any kind; they want the best
cuts. He can afford them. While
the farmers are producing more beef
every year, they are not producing
enough to meet the increase in popu-
lation. l do not look for the prices
to decrease materially soon"
The secretary was asked if West
ern farmers were investing such large
sums in automobiles.
There is much truth in those re.

SUCKERS STILL CAUGHT BY

Farmer PIuoked OF $1,000 by Ancient
Trick.

Baltimore, Sept. 20.-Journeying to
Spain with small fortune in his
pocket, William A. Moffatt, prosper
GUS farmer of Hanover, Arundel coun-
ty, paid $500 in cash over to the
men who have been running the
Spanish hidden treasure swindle for
many years. All told he invested
nearly $4,000 in the scheme, it was
stated.
He is at his home today, bewailing
his fate and seeking some plan where
by he may recover his money.
Mr.. Moffatt about seven weeks ago
received a letter, bearing the post
mark of Madrid Spain The writer
claimed to be a Russian nobleman,
who had robbed the bank of which he
was president and fed to Spain. The
money was hidden away in a satchel
While in Spain the Russian was ar
rested for political PERSONS a1G
thrown into prison at MadsA az
Susppecting that he was in dSr~
of being arrested he had previously
hidden the satchel. The letter pro-
posed that Mr.. Moffat should come to
Spain with as much money as he
could raise to secure his release, and
the recovery of the money, one-half of
which was promised him for his
goodness.
Above all things the letter implored
secrecy.

arrived at Madrid is not known, as
Mr., Moffatt refuses to tell He gave
the money over to the man designated
in the letter and never saw him $. an.

ports" he responded. THE farmer is
out of debt; he has paid for his
farm, his fences and his machinery
He has money in his pockets and big
crops continue to come on. AS a re-
suit he puts his money in luxuries
instead of channels that might give a
return. Why, folks in the East do
not know what luxuries are; they
must go West to find that out.
THE farmer is still handicapped
by lack of labor. Too many have
gone from the farm to the sidewalk.
hope that education along agricultur-
al lines will remedy this, but the tide
has not yet turned backward. One
thing, however, the farmer today, by
means of improved machinery, can do
many times as much as the farmer
accomplished ten years ago.
He does it with ease, too, for a far

PLAN OF THE LAMBS
New Sect Will Send Negro
To Africa

Rome, Ca, Sept. 2O.-Rome will be
the national headquarters of an order
that has for it's object the deportation
of the American negro to territory
outside the United States. The name
of the society is the Order of True
Americans. It's national president is
Rev. ]. R. Lamb, pastor of the Bap-
fist church at Aragon, Ga.
The South will be organized first,
but the order will be national in
scope, and the president has received
commendatory letters from many
Northern epople. He further states
that many negro leaders do not OPP
pose, but favor the plan.
The Order of True Americans will
labor for the repeal of the fifteenth
amendment to the constitution, and
the Acknowledgement of all negroes,
and after the purchase of all lands
owned by negroes in America, the
colonization of the race, as an indie
endent republic on territory outside
America.
Mr.. Lamb has devoted a lifetime
of study to the race problem.
His belief is that race amalgama-
ton and social equality are impossi-
Bile, that race enmity is increasing
that the political and labor questions
are growing more serious, and the
only way to solve these questions ant
stop attacks on white women is t.
