Piper, the Deming, N. NJ, rookie,
who did not stay long with the
Mackmen at San Antonio, was as
green as mock turtle soup. He is
youngster who never strayed from
the fatherly alfalfa in his life before,
and naturally the more urban of his
contemps on the team, were doing
the josh stunt on him all the time.
Struck, the Moon, slipped one over
on him that was some classy. He
took one of the hotel call cards.
which show that telephone call has
been rung in during the absence of
the recipient, and on the card it said:
Call up at youreafliest convenience
No. %; phone and ask for Mr..
Bark" Pipe came through with
the call, and the voice at the other
end of the wire said: Mr.. Bark
isn't in but Miss Pussy is here
Pipe smelled rodent and looked
up the mineral in the telephone,
book. He fonnd that he had been
talking with the dog and cat hospital

compulsory idle because unable to
find some position to their own or
their parents liking is one of the
most fruitful sources Of vice in this
country. In our large cities espec-
tally, hundreds of boys and young
men are wasting energies which
they are anxious to devote to the
conquest OF respectable position in
society, and therefore to the public
good; but they know not what to do.
1t would be blessing to this coun-
try were such boys and young men
compelled to serve in the army or
navy, as is the custom in several
European countries, for it would re-
move them from their families and
the degrading influences of the
street for a term Of years, and teach
them habits of obedience, cleanli-
ness and order.

PoLITENEss pays--of course it
does! Old human nature is basical-
ly selfish and gross, but politeness
tones it down as it were-makes the
ugly, beautiful. How we all enjoy
the society of polite people! and de-
test to mingle with cynics and satir-
ISIS! >Politeness has been aptly de-
fined as the flower of humanity"
and most of us know the worth of
the old proverb that "a soft an
swer turneth away wrath"

Sympathy

In almost all cases when man is
sent to the penitentiary, he is able
to find people who will sympathize
with him. He will find that prac-
tically every man in prison is will
ing to listen to his tale of woe and
hand cut some good advice. This
is one of the pleasures man gets
out of his confinement. Perhaps it
is the first time in his life that any,
one has spoken words of sympathy
and cheer to him.
That is one trouble with this old
world of ours. People generally
stand off and look wise until one
is in trouble then they come along
with a cart load of sympathy and
good advice. They tell you how
sorry they are to.learn you are in
trouble, and that they will do all
they can to help you out. Sure,
they tell you that. But they don't
always do what they say.
Ii these same people who work
the sympathy dodge had commenced
to help you a few years sooner, in
all probability you would not be
doing time today. People, at least,
some of them, take delight in press
ing the knowledge, on a young
boy that he never did amount TO
much and never will; that he's a bad
egg and will end his days in the
penitentiary. A few people talking
like that, and none saying a good
word for the boy, will soon convince
him of what they say, and, well he
somehow figures out that he had
just as well have the game as the
name.
Ii you have any advice or SYM
pathy to dispose of, commence when
it is needed most-before the men
and boys have got into trouble.

WE are exceedingly pleased to
note that the loss to the Kenmare
Journal to w. A. Sticky, did not
serve to put him on the retired list.
He has a small space of his own in
the Grand Forks Times, and his
paragraphs are just as snappy as
ever. Although w. A. has been
playing against cold deck for sew
eral months past, his grit is bound
to sustain him until fortune once
more smiles his way.

! MANY things are being said and
written in favor OF the helping
hand" idea, but it is long since we
read more admirable bit of senti-
ment than that expressed by Mary
d. M'Fadden in a late issue of the
Duluth News Tribune:
Forget the word 'uplift,'" said
she, and if you are too nice and
dainty to meet unfortunate folks,
brother to brother and sister to sis
ter. move on and let some one else
meet them on the level and reach
right across to shake hands,"
Admirable! That little paragraph
should be writ in letters of gold and
hung in a place of prominence in
every home, for it is by such words
that men and women are brought to
realize their duty toward their less
fortunate brothers and sisters.
Not alone by word, however, but
by deed also are people like Miss
M'Fadden proving the sincerity of
their desire to reach out the hand of
friendship, as the following will
show:
Imagine yourself" says the Du-
luth Herald, "a miserable being Just
released from prison for the first
time. Through ignorance, reckless
ness, the wiles of stronger and wick
eder people of thoughtless intemper-
ance, you were led into crime and
have just paid the penalty.
The prison pallor, h e close
cropped hair, even the clothes YOU
wear, stamp you for what you are.
| Conscious of the brand that is upon
you, in spite of yourself you cringe
and so betray your condition again.
But your heart is clean of guile.
The last thing you wish to do is to
be criminal and a convict again.
You are anxious, oh, SO anxious,
to get work and redeem yourself.
starting life anew,
But you find that not many peo-
pie dare employ a convict, or will
take the trouble to investigate your
case. You have committed crime
and you may again. They do not
stop to think that perhaps you are
the safest person in the community
to trust, because of that black and
recently learned lesson.
You can't find work. But YOU
must live. Which way now? You'd
like to climb, but people won't let
you. 1t is easy to slide down again,
and those who start back and excuse
themselves when they realize what
you are have done their share to-
ward kicking you down. 1t is easy,
now, to become a hardened and
practiced criminal-a menace to So
ciety when you might have become
one of its useful and productive
members.
And if you are woman who
has fallen, your situation is sadder
and more hopeless still.
Tonight at the public library an
organization will be formed for the
express purpose of helping people
in such situation as this. There is
need for such an organization. There
is work for it to do, and it is work
that will, tighten with hope the path
way of the hopeless, and so will re-
turo rich dividends to society.
The new society which will be
born tonight deserves unstinted
public sympathy and support"

American Shoes in India

Consul Jase de Olivares, Madras,
India, writing to the Bureau of
manufactures at Washington D. G.
says: An enterprising firm in
Madris recently received $4,000
shipment of high grade American
shoes, the superior merits of which
are meeting with general recogni-
ton in this community. This is
promising field here for up to-date

Shoe Trade Notes.
Chuzzlewit.

In Colonial days in New England,
people who could not afford two
pairs of shoes use to go barefooted
commonly. They walked barefoot
ed to the village. In the outskirts
they paused, put on their shoes, and
walked to church making as goodly
an appearance as they possibly
could.

year, and spend it seeing their own
country, it would be better. You
hear some young person say: Pm
just crazy to go to Europe. I want
to see some high-muck- te-muck's
tomb" It is dollars to doughnuts
that the same young person does
not know where Washington is
buried, nor the last resting place of
Lincoln. The resting place of these
two men are of more Importance, OF
at least should be, to every true
American than all the tombs of Eu-
rope
Perhaps it is the beautiful scenery
they are looking for. Never having
been to Europe | cannot say wheth-
er they have any scenery to boast of
or not. But if that is what they
are looking for they should be able
TO find plenty of it at home.
There are enough fakes, walters
and cab drivers, to make things
interesting in giving tips here at
home, without going abroad to be
gulled.
Spend your money at home and
see some of the beauty of your own
native country-beauty hat you
never before knew existed.

The French Heel

There is being movement
started by the Southern Shoe Re-
tailers Assn to see that women
folks walk upright in the future.
says the Washington Cd. CO. Times.
Of course it is not going to be easy.
The choppines by which the sister,
hood added the fraction of cubit
to their stature in. the days of Ham
let whenever that was-had very
considerable vogue and while there
may have been occasional reactions
in the mean time it is quite certain
from the spiritual sketches of Fra
gonard, that they were among the
daintiest of Bourbon ascendancy.
Presumably it must have been
along about that period that they
were first termed French heels, for
they have long since oyerleaped all
geographical bounds and have been
as popular as "Alexander's Rag
Time Band"
1t use to be said and sung of the
old time darky that the hollow of
his foot makes hole in the ground"
and the white children who shared
his open-air freedom including
barefoot joys, made track very
much after that order. Very little
attention was paid in those days and
places to the patrician arch-or the
corn doctor. But the complexities
of civilization have everywhere
brought in the high heel and it has
taken lectures on engenics and
hygiene to bring the general public
to a realization of it all. The South
ern Shoe Retailers Assn is going to
do all it possibly can to help the
movement along. The chairman of
the styles committe smiles know
ingly and confesses that the reform
will not be complete. A normal
heel he says would be about half an
inch high and quite broad. The
new heels will not be so conserva-
tive as all that but they will look
toward reform. Even this will be
clear again and calls up visions of
the possibility of long walks through
country lanes and over the green
hills, where the pedestrian finds
health and beauty and calm content.
The shoe manufacturing industry
is generally quiet. Most factories
are operating much below normal
capacity while others have abont
finished the spring run. The cut
ting rooms which generally feel the
depression in the trade first, indicate
that business is slow. Many cut
tiers in the east are idle and until
work commences on fall goods, fac
tories will operate with less labor.
The west' er conditions in all
parts of the country have had a
serious effect in retarding business.
Retail stores are displaying, their
spring styles, but the return of
winter has damped the retailers
hope of an early spring business.
1t is occurring to many shoe
makers that the healthful conditions
of the home is more important to
the welfare of themselves and their
families than the healthful condi-
tons of the factories in which they
are employed and that factory legis-
lation is for their own benefit, but
legislation for the Improvement of
homes protects both themselves and
their families. -Lynn Item.
