May Start n Truck Farm

The city of Selma, as a side line, may engage in truck farming during the com ing spring and summer, and if the ven- ture proves the least successful continue in the business. The proposition will be definitely decided at the next meeting or the council and was the outcome Of the council meeting held Monday night.

acters were portrayed, and he had noticed that every young woman clapped her hands and rolled up her eyes.
 Madam Kane begged Miss Brown to be introduced to the starving art lst in her presence. The rent on his garret was due, and the free lunch places were freezing him out, and he wanted to know about his future.
 By this time Miss Brown had be- come alarmed and wanted to get out of the house. She no longer saw things in the light of romance. She was moving toward the door when the starving artist bounced into the room and fell at her feet and clasped her hands and rolled his eyes and exclaimed:

of Madam Kane's and receiving commission on his acting. He was just convincing himself that he was making the desired impression when Miss Brown ran to the door, opened it, and started to race down the steps just in time to collide with young Mir. Bennett. He had scarce ly scrambled to his feet and assisted her to rise when the starving artist was upon them. He knelt again to pour out another impassioned ap- peal.
 Mir. Bennett was young man of action. He proved it on this ocea- sion. He raised the artist and kicked him, and then took Miss Brown on his arm and walked across to the park and seated her on a bench and soothingly told her not to weep.
 '1 see no occasion for tears.' she promptly replied.
 He had thought she was sobbing, but as she looked up he found her smiling.
 Mir. Bennett was a well-bred young man. He sat and looked at the toes of his shoes and never asked question.
 Miss Brown also looked at the toes of her shoes and preserved silence. Thus for long five minutes, and then both laughed at once.
 'I was to take pity on starving artist and become his wife," said the girl.
 "And I should probably have se- lected an old maid or a widow" was the reply.
 'But you spoiled my case by kick ing my artist"
 "And you spoiled mine by bump ing me down the steps,"
 No fees are returned by Madam Kane in such cases, but Miss 1au- rine will never call and demand them. She thinks MT. Bennett the very incest young man she ever saw.
