FlaveI s. Luther of Trinity college. In

THE public is an easy mark be

more than 20 hours week. Let's
have our schools going a larger part

we have done. Let's be little more

was a lively chase, In which the
Dukes brothers forgot the stiffness
and the chilliness of the night. The
coon seemed to know that vicinity
pretty well, and he knew just where
there was a fine hollow tree that
would battle any dogs to get after
him.
John Dukes climbed up the tree al

couldn't Just see how they were going
to get that coon that night. The
dogs were not able to get after the
animal. So the two men crept around
the tree and stuffed up all the holes In
