Fatherhood.
When the kid does something
that vexes you
And your temper flares sky
high
And you hand him a spank, or
shrek out word
That brings the tear to his eye,
Do you ever think of a day to
come
When God may say to you
"Ah, you did this, and you did
that -
Were they pretty things to
do?"
You dream that a fathers love
will be
All kindly, gentle and mild;
That His great heart will gather
you up
And whisper soft: "My child"
But, oh, the moment of angry
hate
That you deal out pain and woe
To a little lad-do you ever
think
That God might treat you so?

meeting here next Thursday afternoon.
The Taft men will fight the plan. ID.
w Mulvane, national eOmmi tteeHaau,
will lead the Taft men in this fight.
The very fact that the First and Sew
enth congressional committee have
called meetings a day ahead of the
state committee is taken as sure evil
dence that the Taft men have determin-
ed to fight the primary plan to nm
ish. Dan Anthony will come home from
Washington this week to line up his
First district committee for a conven-
ton over al opposition. Anthony is q
Taft man through and through.
The Seventh district committee meet
ing is pretty sure to result in a grand
row. The insurgents and regulars are
about evenly divided on that commit
tee and the insurgents have already
served notice that they will fight the
convention plan. The regulars called
the meeting for the express purpose of
calling q convention ahead of the state
committee action of Thursday. The
insurgents claim a majority in the
committee and declare they will block
the convention plan.
Instead of trying to get together en-

Call for Presidents Friends Issued in
Lawrence.

Lawrence, Kan, March 11.-Since
the declaration issued from Roose-
welt headquarters that the former
president would accept the nomina-
ton should it be rendered to him the
Taft sentiment in Douglas county has
been growing constantly. Several
men who were known to favor Roose-
welt a month ago have deserted the
sBig Stick candidate and getting into
the administration band wagon. A
cali of all Douglas county Taft sup
porters has been issued and 1t is eX-
pected that several hundred RepuD-
iicans will attend the meeting which
is set for next Wednesday evening.
The call reads: "a call to Republi-
cans and patriotic citizens. Believing
in the honesty, the ability, and the
broad progressive conservatism OF
William Howard Taft. we are earnest
Iv in favor of his denomination and
election for president of the United
States.
1--WE are convinced that his admin
istration has been one of accomplish
ment and we point to what has been
done, and not to what has been said
1--WE are convinced that the re-elec-
ton of President Taft is in line with
the best and highest interests of our
country and should be demanded by
the party of Lincoln and Mckinney;
the party which has guided the pol1t1-
cal life of our nation for the past nan
century, during which time the Unit
ed States has made more real progress
than any other country on earth
Said Theodore Roosevelt: do
not believe there can be found in the
whole country a man so Well f1tted TO
be president as William Howard Taft
He is not only absolutely fearless, alb
solutely disinterested and upright, but
he has the widest acquaintance with
the nations needs without and with
in and the broadest Sympath1eS with
all our citizens
The call was signed by score of
influential Republicans. The name of
J. d. Bowersock heads the lists. A
prominent Republican said this after
noon that there was little doubt about
Douglas county being for Taft.

stitution due to their cutting classes
just because they felt like it," that a
new ruling has been made.
Only four "unexcused" absences will
be allowed hereafter each term, but be-
cause the present term is more than
in its infancy, but three of this brand
of absences will be tolerated between
now and next June. Two tardy marks
will count as one absence.
When four marks have been chalk
ed up against q pupil he or she will
be hunked provided that test is not
taken which being a grade better than

will be averaged with the grade for
the general class work, in determining
whether or not the pupil will be per-
mitted to enter a higher class the fol-
lowing term.

parents for high school students, and
been taking decided advantage of the
