Little Willie Hargens was twenty
one years old last Friday and he came
to town to assume his inheritance.
Willie is only seven foot three inches
tall or thereabouts. As he went over
to the court house he reached down
and patted his guardian. M. E. Jones.
affectionately on the head. BY means
of great Salaam he passed through
the court house door and his head
just missed the ceiling as he went
through the court house basement.
It's all right to joke. but after all
seven foot three locks pretty good to
little three foot seven like the edi-
tor. So here's luck to Willie. who
is now a sure enough man.

protect, these birds have been shown
to be the only effective check to the
