Should we devote more space
to religious topics, or more to
the condition of the crops?
Should we bury news items deal

them up on the front page?
Ought we to devote more space

How many of our readers can
tell us what the stripes on the
barber pole signify? You see
the pole with its stripes and you
know there is a barber shop back
of the pole, but here the knowl-
edge of the average person ceas-
es. In the early days BARRIERS
did the bleeding for the commu-
nifty and surgeons were not as
plentiful as now. The first thing
thought necessary, way down to
the time of George Washington S
death, was that any patient
should be bled. Tap him, and
take a few ounces Of blood from
him, no matter how weak he
might be. When Washington
was at the last gasp, the. fools
bled him. Well, the red stripes
on a barber pole mean the red
ribbon bandages that BARRIERS
bound over the wounds caused
by bleeding people. That's all.
When they got through with a
plethoric man, of full habit, and
had tapped him like hard maple
tree in February, he was patched
up and bandaged till his arms,
legs and trunks looked like a
much gartered leg.

US with dlscourtesy is one that
clouds the sunshine of too many
homes. If you are young and
looking for your prince, just test
his home conduct. Do not be
guided in your choice by what a
young man is in the parlor; find
out what he is in his mothers

by the way he can tip his hat,
but by the way he treats the old,

the purpose of taking an inventory. Or

The output of the factory has given uni

been OF material benefit to the farmers
OF the state is proven by the fact that
Irvine retailed in Michigan in 1907 for
