independence Day!

Independence Day dawned dark
and threatening and by O'Clock
the rain was pouring down in tor
rents. We were expecting to enjoy
the morning in the park, which had
been decorated for the occasion with
flags and bunting, but the rain forced
us to stay inside and we were given
the freedom of the dollhouse corri-
doris for three hours instead. Sew
eral barrels of excellent lemonade
were on tap, and during the morning
the band livened things up occasion
ally with patriotic selection.
A very agreeable surprise was in
store for us. however, when at din
ner Deputy Warden Coles announc-
ed that we would be allowed a few
hours liberty in the park the follow
ing Sunday morning, Warden VOL
fer having so determined because
the rain had deprived us of the ath-
letic sports which had been planned.
The news was received with loud
applause. Sunday morning wa
perfect, and after chapel services.
we assembled in the park and enjoy
ed full holiday privileges for two
solid hours.
That we thoroughly appreciated
Warden Wolfer's kindness. goes
without saying. and we hereby ex-
tend him a unanimous vote of thanks
for the extra holiday.

After vacation of several months,
Apache" has returned to an active
position on The Mirror staff and
will hereafter enliven these pages
with a weekly contribution. His
ability as a poet and writer of di-
verse choice and well-seasoned ar
ticles on live topics is so well known
that a lengthy introduction is Who'll
ly unnecessary, so we will let it suf-
fee to say that we are immensely
pleased at this fresh opportunity of
passing on his copy and trust the
readers will gain as much pleasure
from the further acquaintance of his
brain children as we. A poem, The
Call of the Wild" by Apache, will
be found on page two of this issue.

were given out by the management.
Anyone presenting one of these
checks to the gate keeper on Labor
Day will be entitled to box seat in
the bleachers. After everyone had
talked himself tired, we were re-
quested to fall in line and march to
the dining room, where the big din
ner was spread. Chief chef Doyle
cannot be beaten when it comes to
cooking holiday dinners. The pork
chops were splendid; and let me tell
you, gentlemen, that no less a per-
sonage than Porkchops Lou stamped
his .. X. on them long before they

One of Americans greatest poets
once said that the beautiful was a l.

essence, was sadness. The force Of
the observation comes home too one
on rea ding such poem as willamette

twenty verses, yet it's surprising
beauty is such that it cannot but carry
one out of oneself, out of the ru of
sordid everyday thought, and leave
him on higher plane;with deeper
insight into b mysteries of which
we are part, with brighter hope
for the dawning of tomorrow; and
with tirmer purpose to turn con-

that are to come. This may sound
superlative to you; if so get the July

The Red Sox are playing b ter
ball than they have in years. They
have star outtield and are stron
in other respects, but someway e
team does not impress one as being
of championship caliber. They are
least formidable in corps of fingers.
Altho in Wood they have a consist
ent winner. Buck O'Brien is I'M

same class. The team wins games
by their heavy batting, but this will
probably fall off now that the vetran
pitchers on the other clubs are
rouning to form.
The White Sox are hanging on to
a place in the first division. Jimmy
Callahan is developing some g cd

New Prison Notes
BY Bingo

Can anyone wonder why there is
such thing as an ice trust in exist
ence?
My friend, the married man, says
that too much moral suasion will
make any child immoral.
10 10 says there is a good deal
of money in pugilism but it doesn't
come out of the pugilists.
There were five paroles granted
by the Board of Parole during the
last meeting at this Institution.
There's many slip between the
cup and the coffee pot. For further
information see the farmers, (local
farmers).
AS a general thing when man is
real hungry he doesn't worry much
about microbes. So sayeth Pork
chops Lou.
J. S. says that the world is very
small when one is trying to hide
from an enemy and very large when
one is trying to find friend.
Our observation is that the kind
of young man who thinks it ex-
ceedingly wise to drink cheap whis-
key is fool in other respects also.
There is one thing we like very
much about the human talking ma
chine on row two and it is this: one
never has to reach over and wind
him up.
Say Rex, old chap can't we induce
you 60 to back to the tailor shop?
You see it's like this: there's several
of us over here who know your abil-
ity in making classy looking "benja-
MANS"
Another victim of the blackhand,
Jim Flynn. It's too bad, Jim, old
scout, that you didn't clean John
Arthur, but cheer up the world

Say Boobies, we have a fellow
over here who claims to have dis
covered RUDE Marquard, Marty
O'Toole, Dean Gregg, Buck Weaver
and Larry Doyle. Wouldn't it be
best to ship him right through to
Fergus?
Deputy Warden Backland re-
marked that the weather was just
right. The weather may be O. K,
but it's certainty that the weather
man must have had a crouch on the
morning of the Fourth, either that,
or he is an Englishman.
Blondy, who used to chase N. P.
notes for The Mirror, will soon be
chasing notes 50 for Mrs. Blondy
and the Blondy kids. Blondy re-
ceived parole at the last meeting
of the Board. Here's luck to you
old scout and the best wishes of all.
S. G. Gale was recently appointed
guard at this institution. Mr.. Gale
takes the place of guard Montgom-
cry on the fence, Mr.. Montgomery
goiug to the warehouse. By the
way Mr.. Montgomery climbs over
the cars one would think that he had
been shack" at sometime or other.
Governor Eberhart visited this
institution Friday the 9Th. He was ac-
companied by Warden Wolfer and
several other friends. Would like
to have gotten an interview with
the Governor, but that was impossi-
BILE. No doubt the Governor was
well pleased with the progress be-
ing made on the n. p.

continued. Then he wondered why
they all laughed. Such extrava-
gance is shocking.

Umpire Brick Owens who was
promoted to the National L ague
this year was formerly premier ar
bitter of the American Association,
but he was met with hard luck n
t b shape of two peculiar accidents.
L he first happened in M ay in
game between the Cardinals and the
Reds. One of the Cards banged the
ball toward Short and Owen was
looking toward first to see the play.
The Red shortstop made fast heave
but Owens stopped the ball with his
head, dropped like plummet. 1t
took him a week to recover and he
aflerward said he knew how it felt
to get shot. Then just a short time
ago in a game at Philly he had his
ankle broken by a foul tip and will
be disabled for some time. He will
now probably wear a pair of b
guards.
