We're ready to quit. After sending
two perfectly rhymed, carefully scan
ned, pleasurably sentimental pieces of
poetic junk to seventeen magazines
and having them returned seventeen

new monthly and find a 'pome"
modelled after Kiplngs Vampire"
and in which home is supposed to
rhyme with alone, run on page eleven
with all the swell curlycues ordinarily
surrounding a piece Of real art. II
poetizing is a gift we are convinced
that this poets must have been. AS
Tor us, we are on our way to the wood
shed to study the psychology of the
OK or any other old thing that hasn't
to do with selling poetry to maya

HIT BY SUBMARINE
GUNBOAT PUT OUT OF COMMITS
SION AS RESULT OF ACCIDENT
DURING MANEUVERS.
Submarine Rises Suddenly Beneath
the Other Vessel, Having Misca.-

rible Tragedy is Mar
rowly Averted.

Princeton, Mass.--The gunboat Cas-
tine, flagship of the submarine flo
tilla, was rammed by the submarine
Bonita during the maneuvers on Mon
day and was beached to prevent her
sinking.
No one on board was injured, but a
terrible tragedy and heavy loss OF
life was narrowly ayerted. Two OF
the plates of the Castine were loos-
ened
The accident occurred during a
mimic attack on the Castine by the
submarines, the Bonita apparently mis-
calculating the distance and striking
the gunboat with considerable force.
The men on both boats were momen-
tarily stunned, but no one was seri-
ously injured. The Bonita escaped
with the slight denting of a portion
of her armor and the loss of small
section of her railing. AS soon as 1t
was seen how badly the Castine was
damaged, it was decided to beach
her near North Truro, which was

THE DANGER OF DELAY
A Story of Human Interest

He was a stalwart young man
health and energy, with wife
two children, and with farm on
which there was debt that would
fall due in short time. In spite Of
the debt the prospects were bright
and he was full of the optimism of the
healthy man to whom the future was
a vision of certain health, wealth and
happiness.
An agent of the Idaho State Life In
surance Company Of Boise called on
him to get his application for a policy
of life insurance, but the protests OF
his wife joined to his optimism and to
the knowledge of the debt hanging over
him weighed heavier than the argu
ments of the agent.
Two weeks later he was taken with
Spinal Meningitis, and in 48 hours he
was dead.
The time when the mortgage will be
foreclosed is approaching, and unless
outside help comes his widow and chill
dren will be forced to start afresh
without the benefit of the labors Of the
husband and father, which, at small
expense could have been saved to
them had he listened to the advice of
the apostle for the prevention of pow
erty," the despised Life Insurance
Agent Delay is dangerous, but espe-
cially dangerous is delay in taking
Life Insurance during the time. of
health and strength, and no man so
needs insurance as the man of family
who is in debt.

also provides that third grade ele-

nounce such legislation as being
revolutionary and unjust and sub

deprive the county of any right to
govern or employ its teachers, and
centralize the forces of education in
