Real Rainmakers

Thursday Of last week the Ordway
band was slated to give its first con-
cert for the season-and it rained.
Yesterday was the date for the second
concert-and it rained again. The In
dian medicine men used to perform
wierd incantations in fruitlcss efforts
to bring the needed downpour for
crops, and paleface scientists have for
years been endeavoring to discover a
method Of attaining the same end,
when all the time the solution was at
hand. If the Ordway band had be.
gun its concerts early in the spring
we doubtless would have been spared
that long dry spell. Here's hint for
next year.

IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN TRUE
How Calhoun Webster With His Un-
failing Optimism Had the Better
Of the Deacon.

Scott Bond, q rich Arkansas planter.
said at the recent convention Of the
National Negro Business League In
New York: 1.-THE open places are the
places for you. the farm lands. You
won't be sick out there, and the
ground will love you like brother.
II a man optimist for my farm
brother. l know he must succeed.
And any argument you bring against
his success I can answer optimisticai.
ly. In fact. I'm like Calhoun Washing
ton, who said bravely. no matter what
misfortune happened. Well. It might
have been worse
But the deacon thought he'd got
the best Of the optimist, Calhoun. and
SO he said to him one day:
"I had a dreadful dream last night.
I thought saw the bad place. There
was q great lake Of boiling. blazing
pitch, and we all were swimming in 1t
you and I, and all our friends. And
when we'd get near the shore and try
to climb out, imps with horns and
tails would jab red-hot pitchforks into
our faces
"'Well, well.' said Calhoun. He
thought a moment, then he added:
But it might have been worse. eh?'
"'How might 1t have been worse.
you foolr shouted the deacon. an
grily.
"'why.' said Calhoun. 1t might have
been true.'"

BAD BOY IN THE GROCERY

Suffered Later.

A bad boy entered grocery store

"what'll it be. sonr' asked the
grocer. ~
"Give me a smoked herring. and
wrap It up" said the boy. Then no
looked around for diversion.
The store cat was asleep in the saw

cats paw. The cat kowled with pain
and fed for the shelter Of the cracker

A bag Of beans was standing IN

the grocer. *
"G'wan. Hurry up with that her
ring" replied the boy. Cant you see
that my time Is valuable?"
A decayed orange lay on the doof
beside the orange crate. waiting to be

1t to the crate.
Then he toyed with the dried beef
cutter and put It out Of gear. after
which he knocked a stack Of condens-
ed cream cans into the dill pickle bar.

Brown Eyes and Color Blindness

Brown Eyes and Color Blindness.
Color blindness is one Of the great
drawbacks to large percentage OF
men who would enlist in the United
States marine corps. according to the
recruiting officers.
I'VE have box filled with different
colored yarn" Sergeant R. A. Dray'
ton, Of that branch Of the service.
said: I'VE ask the prospective re-
cruit to pick out green. for instance.
Ii he is color blind he will invariably
pick all the red yarn. We place 1t all
back in the box again and ask him to
pick out the red. In nine cases OUT
OF ten out will come the green.
Another strange thing have no
ticed Is that most persons who are
color blind have brown eyes. Once
in a while a person with eyes OF
different color Is affected that way
bu. as a general rule they are persons
with brown eyes,"
