CAUGHT ON THE RUN
BY J. c.

The choir boys are doing fine. Keep it
up.
Life is half spent before we know what
it is.
Cheer up boys, and all answer the call
when school begins.
Again, cheer up boys. 1t is better to be
alone than in bad company.
Go to school boys. Nothing is impos-
sible to a willing mind.
/ wonder what ever became of the good
old fashioned swimming hole.
Swine is mocker, strong drink is rag
ing; and whatsoever is deceived thereby is
not wise.
Some men are great successes in making
money, but terrible failures in selecting
ways to spend it..
o. C. should be handed a nice little
bunch of roses for the part he took in max
ing field day success.
Say Happy Heinne, how would you like
to be one of those prize winning babies of
Minneapolis, Hay! What! No! Yes
Sure.
Did we enjoy field days Well l should
say SO, and then some. Now we are wait
ing and longing for next field day to put
in its appearance.
There was lots and lots of judges, jury
men, lawyers, witnesses and others who
were spared the horrible death in efhgy on
labor day. There is reason of course.
The boys had something else to talk about.
The Deputy Warden says we are to have
mile race next time. Ouch, my stomach!
1t is up to you fellows to get in training.
If you don't, l see where Sherlock takes
home the bacon.
Sherlock said he would have won his race
all right, if it had mt been for some wise
gink yelling ''mark time," just as he was
rounding to the home stretch. How about
that Paddy? 1t was mt me.
We see that Betrami County has taken
second prize with their booth at the state fair,
and grabbed first prize for potatoes. We al
ways knew that there was class to Beltrami
Co. Here is hoping you take first prize in
everything next year.

suddenly occurred to her and she sank
hopelessly into a chair at the uselessness of
it all. He had been baseball umpire

The painting of these cells has been no
small task, as the walls and ceiling of each

TWINE DEPARTMENT.
By Hemp.

After being idle for some time, the big
breaker in system A is again working full
capacity.
Why are some men so loquacious? 1t is
an established fact that many persons have
talked themselves into trouble.
Two Irvine office boys now complain
ga day is as MONTH. Only little ov-
er three moons for each. Father Time
shows no partiality.
Cell ITO will exchange the Dubuque
Telegraph Herald; Denver Post; New
York World and Rural Weekly for any
other newspaper or magazine. Send them
along.
The Irvine office was favored with sever
al visits by the fairer sex, the past few
days. Their visits always leave pleasant
atmosphere that reminds one of the more
cheerful side of life.
Next week; then the happy deviation; dust
your books, wash your slate and be ready
when the first school bell rings. Gee, it
causes one to think of other days; of red
topped boots and the little rosy-cheeked
girl.
Assistant Superintendent Gurley's fam
lily have arrived from their home at Xenia,
Ohio. Personally, we know it is hard to
break the ties that bind in the great
State where ssMe and Grant were born
ed, but no doubt they will soon become
acclimated to the Northland.
When the big door swings outward for
us, let's recall Antony's words of denunci-
alton of the slayers of Caesars: Justice
and truth alone endure and live. Injustice
and falsehood may be long lived, but
doomsday comes at last to them who per-
sist in playing the crooked game. And
it did.
If every visitor who passed through the
factory last week, boosts our products with
the zeal that was apparent in their scruti-
nizing eyes, our binder Irvine will be well
advertised, and we should have tremend-
Gus sale next season. Every grain grower
in the state should use our binder Irvine,
for he is partner in the business.

40, Paddy.

10, Paddy.
My motto is: Don't get pulled. The
Deputy has sure cure for it.
Sure, every one boost for another field
day. We had good time; that's what it
was for.
This is my first attempt, so don't look
for too much. Hope to make good col
umn of this when ! get used to it.
Easy. Paddy, don't press so hard on the
bearings. That new machine of yours
won't run hot. | asked Billie Alexander,
our foreman, about the spinner OIL He
says it's no good for typewriter, but if
you use some glue on the ribbon, it will
run easier.
We have plenty of boosters for another
field day, but the palm must go to Supt.
Mullen sson, of the farm. He boosted for
everything. then got sore when we had to
stop for dinner. He said: Gee, this is more
fun than outside We are all against
him on that statement.
Guard Piculell is wondering if some one
IS trying to put one over on him. Sunday
morning at drill he told one of his men to
close up in line and keep proper distance,
ahu Sot TINS ioT reply: eS SIT, captain,
but that other officer said to march two by
each and not too close.
Accidents and more accidents are COM
ing pretty regular up here. One of the fell
lows on the ballers, was hit on the wrist
by fier; thought it was broke at first,
but proved to be only bruised little, but
is still pretty sore. 1t is the arm we are
talking about and not the Aier.
See Sherlock rum thought he was go
ing down to the river when he started to
undress. He said: 81 like to run light,
Mike think-well, never mind. I'm
glad he did mt take off any more. But l
would like to know if he was running for
that tobacco or to get his clothes back.
Tell us which, Sherlock.
Pat, the machinist, walked up to me the
other day with both hands full of ham,
mers and monkey wrenches, and said:
mike, you re the homeliest man in the
place. Officer Barron seen him, and
asked me what he said. When l told him,
he said: "Make him prove it. Sure,
they like me.

SHOP 3.

At present we are all excused from
grand jury duty.
We prefer the choir, Paddy, to the music
of the anvil chorus.
''B'' stands for busy, and that's US. We
are the boys that put the US in busy.
Do you hear us bang our seats in the
dining hall7 No! Well, there's reason.
We have the original 'sGold-dust Twins
twins.
We have no bald headed men in the
shop, but we have one head that looks kind
of suspicious.
wish there was sign: ''you can't do
wrong and get away with it, over every
sign post in the land.
We have the barker in this shop He is
apt to bark in the dining hall or any place.
d. says it's the hash that makes him do
that. 1t could be, or it might be the win
ners.
Guard Rutherford always tells anew man,
ssthat you can't do wrong and get away
with it, while in the shop. But / will
help you all can, if you will try to do
right
Our best worker is the boy who feeds the
big machine He is the one that starts the
wind in Irvine. He keeps one of the twins
and near twin delivering the goods, most
of the time.
We can't say that our oiler is stingy with
the oil. In fact he is very liberal in all
things, Except hair.) AT that you can't
help but like him.
"B.'' also stands for Chunk but we
hope the above will not be considered a.
such by the editor.

Get wise, Willie.

Get wise, Willie.
Much obliged, Mr.. Ed. see you have
not forgotten me.
All White Sisal that we are turning out
now is to be exported to South America
The output of White Sisal in shop E
for the past week was eighty -four thousand
pounds.
Who do you think am; Santa CLAUSE
Christmas only comes one year, you
know.
w. T., one of the boys that formerly
tested Irvine at the old prison, was assigned
to duty at the same job in shop last
week.
When it comes to operating ballers, l
would be willing to back H. M. against
all corners. No lost motion with that boy;
every move counts.
Talking about the best kept up shop
beg pardon, F. C.-if you will kindly OBJ
serve, when passing through shop E, you
will note we are close rival.
The boy that performs the stunt on the
Joy cart, won the prize in the shot-put con-
test field day. No donbt he derives his
muscle from juggling those heavy bobbins.
One of Mr.. Williams celebrated and
much talked of new balling machines was
installed during the week, taking the place
of an old one, same being transferred to
machine shop for repairs.
Five of the boys of shop E were awarded
prizes field day, SO if there is any other
shop that cares to compete with us Thanks
giving Day, why place your plugs with
yours truly, as am official stake holder of
our shop.
