Packing a Trunk.

One OF the simplest and most enjoyabl.
recreations of the summer days Is packing
a trunk. This effort should always be de
ferred until the night before you are goinE
away on your vacation.
Then several of your friends will drop
in to spend one last evening with you and
show you how much they are going to
miss you.
BY the time they have departed-which
Is after you have mendaciously assured
them that you are enjoying their visit and
they simply must not be in such q hurry
you may begin to pack the trunk.
First you must bring 1t down from the
attic. In doing this you remove some cpl
dermis from your skin and some plaster
from the wall. You then discover that you
have entirely forgotten to have the hinge
mended since last summer.
You place the trunk in the center of the
room and get out all the clothing you ex-
pect to put into it. Your wonder how you
are going to put the vast quantity OF ma
terial into the trunk is only to be compared
to ones occasional wonder at how much ice
cream a child can devour.
However, you finally jam the stuff in,
and then find that the key is lost. So you
nail the lid down and buckle the strap.
You have then packed all the garments
you expected to wear on the trip leaving
yourself only the stained, wrinkled, torn
things you have on.
In the morning you discover that you left
out the tray.-Chicago Post

~FLIcKERrAIL" THOMPSON.

When his fraternal brothers and his
hundreds of friends were paying tribute
Sunday TO the memory Of the late
Frank j. Thompson, 1t no doubt oc-
CURED to many of them that the de-
parted brother and friend was widely
known as "Flickertail.r
When Mr.. Thompson was q member
Of the legislature the question of q
name or designation for the residents
Of this state came up. He suggested
the name "F7ickertails' to correspond
with gophers Of Minnesota, badgers Of
Wisconsin and other names.
He had the idea from the name given
by some people to the gophers Of this
state with reference to their method of
disappearing into their holes with a
peculiar movement of their caudal APP
pendage.
Mr.. Thompson considered this name
the proper designation for North Da-
kotans and IL has been in more or less
general use ever since he urged its
selection. In fact the name is now gem
orally accepted not only here but by
people of other states in their refer
ence to the residents of North Da-
kota. The name has now become SO
well established that it will no doubt
be the permanent designation.
Mr.. Thompson will always be known
as its originator and go down in his
tory as the Father of the Flicker
tails"

WHAT WILL BURKE Dor

Is Governor Burke shielding school
land grabbers?
Charges have been made before the
state board Of public lands calling at
!ention to alleged frauds. These charges
were backed by the affidavit of a we'll
known resident of the state. Have they
Seen investigated?
1t is claimed the men in the deal
are a former republican state ap-
pointee, a we'll known republican and
two of the leading democrats of the
state-one of whom was afterwards
given high honors by Governor Burke.
He was appointed some months after
the charges had been brought TO the
attention of the governor. He was
proclaimed as the governors great and
true friend. The governor himself ex-
tolled the virtues of his appointee and
boosted of the latter's broad acres.
Did this democratic friend Of Hon
est" John Burke get any more of his
acres in the same manner that he &C
quired the state school lands?
The man who made the original
charges in connection with this fraud
stands ready to present the names of
other witnesses-many of them promi-
nent. His efforts have been ignored by
the state board of public school lands
of which the head of the states school
MISREPRESENTATION Stockwell-is
chairman and of which Governor Burke
is a member.
The section of land flched from the
state is within six or seven miles of the
county seat. II Is one of the best Sec
tions in the county. II lay alongside
the farm that is owned by Governor
Burke's great democratic friend.
A dozen or more men went TO the
school land sale to bid on this par
ticular tract but they were informed
it would not be sold at that time. They
returned to their homes disappointed
A few months later they learned the
land had been hidden in for the min
imum price-$1O per acre. Many OF
the prospective bidders would have
given $40. The combination which
turned the trick through the aid of q
state appointee, was composed OF two

democrats and a republican. One OF
these democrats In whose name half
ownership of the section stands today
lis Governor Honest John Burke's
personal friend and appointee.
The state can recover that land--tak-
en- from the school children of North
Dakota at half price. The original
contract can be cancelled because of
fraud and the land can be resoId.
The crooks and land grabbers can
be punished.
Will Governor Burke have them pros
ecuted? Or will he ignore the matter
just because one of the men involved
is his appointee--his personal friend
the alleged financial hacker of his po-
litical campaign?
