knows that one cannot study with a

Dental ailments. aften unknown to

found TO put the whole nervous me-

Willie Rosser is gone again A few weeks ago he was picked up on the street by the police and he told a pitiful story of ill treatment bv a family with whom he was living near Mesa. He said that his parents were dead and that he had made his way to this country from New orleans.
 He was given a bed at the city hall, but he suddenly disappeared and later was picked up. Marshal Moore communicated with the Mesa people, who thought that he ought to be sent to the reform school.
 The publication of his story excited good deal of sympathy in this community, and several families of fered to take him. When the marshal was about to find home for him the Mesa people said that they would take him back and do what they could do with him. But on that side of the river he was regarded as q bad boy rather than an object of pity.
