them superiority over others who
may equal them in fielding skill.

trouble In understanding Just
what Father Chadwick intended
to convey. What he meant was
this:

PROTEST AGAINST KILL

Dear Miss Grey: 1 read
in the paper last evening
about them going to BUTCH
er the oxen Mr.. Meeker will
donate to the park. They
also intend to feed them to
the animals, they say the
meat will last three months.
They will mount the hides
and have them on exhibition,
hitched to the wagon in the
park. Now what 1 want to
know, Miss Grey, do you
think this is right?
DO you not think they
should let them live as long
as they want to, then when
they die, mount them? 1
guess if they had the dog
here they would kill him, too.
Mr.. Meeker has donated
the animals to the park, and
L think the park officials
should be able to keep and
feed them as long as they
live, for they certainly have
done their work.

You do read them-and write

a man who wants my help in pick

you will pardon my intrusion in

Even the male lion is somewhat
of a coward; but hunters fear the

of the wife being the slave of her
husband been in disappearing,
that the word "obey" still re-

is the true measure of the degree
of civilization.
Truth is universal; truth is
eternal; truth is of today as well
