was inconsiderate, for he overlooked
a golden opportunity to make himself
a public benefactor. Think of it,"
said Commissioner Price Yesterday.
He could have gotten two fine pelts,
n lot of bear grease, steaks enough to
keep him sleek n happy through
the winter, yet he walked blindly past
and stole a dozen scraWny pigeons.
An unfeeling wretch, / call him. We
have put the police or his trail and
will hunt him down. When We catch
him we are going to drag him back
here and make him steal those bears.
And please advertise the fact that the
bears are still there waiting for a res
cuer. The park policeman will very
carefully patrol the northern end of
the park hereafter"

PETITION PREPARED
FOR RECALL
MAYOR RHOADES, HOWEVER,
SAYS IT IS NOT NECESSARY,
AND TELLS WHY.
PETITION FOR RECALL OF
MAYOR JAMES M. RhOADES.

To the Mayor and City Council
of the City of Missoula, Mont
Gentlemen: We, the undersigned
qualified electors of the city of
Missoula, Mont, petition you to
submit to the electors the question
of recalling and removing the
mayor, James M. Rhoades, and the
election of a successor. Removal
of the mayor is sought on the fol-
lowing grounds:
He has recklessly plunged the
city i'll debt.
He has spent the public funds in
violation of law and the wishes pf
the taxpayers.
He has contracted large and I'M
necessary Indebtedness on the part
of the city without consultation
with the people.
He was elected on a platform of
economy, and has proven himself a
spendthrift with the peoples
money
He has shown no sympathy or
for the small taxpayer,
who is least able to bear the bur-
dens of reckless expenditures of
public money.
He has threatened to continue
the policy pursued since he took
office. y
We. therefore, ask for his re-
fmoval and the election of a sue
cessor as provided by law.

HUMAN that he could skate:
NATURE and now. although its
warmer, his suffering is
intense; the school bell bids him
hasten and he's 1oath to wander
hence; he madly dashed to skating.

up to 10 above, he moves exceeding
SLOW; the ring of steel upon the Ice
struck an exultant note; and. though
1t was tremendous cold, Jack didn't

cold: he declares he fears the weather.
though Sunday he was bold: and Jack
IS no exception to human natures
rule; he's extremely fond Of skating,
but he's not wild over school; and so
we boys of larger growth approach our
play with ease; yet, when we face un-
pleasant tasks, we straight begin to
freeze; when We're doing what we
want to do, we wax exceeding bold:
when we're brought to what we have
