there Is scarcely scrap of food that
falls from the family tab that will not
be joyously received by the bird family
Then there are the dear little squirrels
that we love to watch running about o.
the tree limbs or in the treen grass dur
ing the summertime. but little do we
realize how many Of them die of starva-
ton during the long, severe winter. If
the boys and girls will take food to them
they will be fully repaid for the trouble
when they see how eagerly the fuzzy
tailed little creatures seize upon it. OF
course. the squirrels must have nuts. but
peanuts are so cheap, and a bag of them
will feed dozens of squirrels. If you see
the dear lit G creatures seize the nuts In
their mouths and run to some hole in a
tree you may understand that Mr. or
Mrs. Squirrel Is laying aside a meal for
tomorrow Mr.. Squirrel Is not fors etful
Of another day. and if food is to be found
he will store up part Of 1t In his win
ter quarters.

Republicans in Pleasanton and vicinity
were obtained and on Monday night
meeting was held at the G. A. R. hall
to perfect the organization. While the
storm prevented many from attending
those who were present were enthusl-
astic and confident and proceeded to
organize. The following officers were
elected:

The next meeting of the club will be
held July &c. when Congressman Scott
will be present and address the club.
The officers expect to make an active
campaign from now until the primaries
in the Interest of Mr. Scott. The tide
of sentiment has been changing rapid
lv in the last two weeks in favor of
Mr.. Scott and the Taft administration.
Many Republicans who have been 'un-
decided as to their choice for congress
man have decided that Scott is too val
liable a man and his experience is
worth TOO much to Kansas to trade him
off for an inexperienced man whose po-
sition on public questions is unknown.
| The only charge against Scott is that
he voted for Cannon for speaker and
voted for the new tariff law
When the Republican voters give the
matter serious consideration they real
ize that Scott has been working with
President Taft and IS per cent of the
he has done what any straight Repub-
lican would be expected to do. The
| question is: Do the Republicans of the
| Second district want Scott to work
with Is per cent Of the Republicans and
| about 80 per cent of the Democrats OF
i with IS per cent of the Republicans
4 and 10 per cent of the Democrats?
