ial sale on mems rubber boots, or
slightly damaged overcoats. More
than half the time,a she is so dis
gusted by the tracking of her porch
and her waste Of time and energy
in answ ering the bell that she puts
these bills at once in the fire. A
resident of the town not long ago
found in the loft of his barn roll Of
several hundred hand bills, where
some boy distributor had placed
them, having grown tired of his job.
Boys distributing bills are not par
ticular how many bills they leave at
one door, and from five to dozen
are frequently left. There is one
chance in ten that one of the bills
are read. The same announcement in
the paper will be read by the sub
scribers, and people who do not
read the paper are hardly worth go
Ing after for customers by any store.
Farmers autos and vehicles are lit
tered with these hand bills in pro-
fusion, when the columns of the pa
per would have been seen and read
oy these same farmers with much
more surety than the hand bill. This
IS an old story but is just as true
1ow as it was one year ago.

Electrify the Line.

Now that the Fort Dodge. Des
Moines & Southern Interurban rail
road is in the hands of new proprie-
tors, Webster City will except the
tritication of the Crooked Creek,
which that company owns. The Ma
tional Sewer Pipe Company is giving
lots of business to the Crooked
Creek road and if the line should be
electrified it ought to be a paying
proposition. An interurban into
Webster City is one of the things
the town needs and would be very
sure TO get good patronage from the
start.

WEBSTER CITY TAKES
GAME FROM BOONE
In Holly Contested Game Locals
Win by a Thirteen to Nothing
81 i, Score. a
.!~,l.4A~;AA.:

Saturday at the Athlete Park in
this city took place one of the fast
est foot ball games of the season
when the Boone high school were
defeated by the local high school
team by a score of 13 to 0. The
game was fine exhibition of foot
ball and was hotly contested each
minute of play. The game started
by Boone receiving the ball on their
fifteen yard line and by straight
football brought the ball to the CEN
ter of the field where they were
forced to kick to Webster City's
twenty yard line where the locals
took the ball. S. Sterling then made
a forward pass which netted Web
ster City thirty yards and by end
runs and smashes the ball was TAX
on to Boone's fifteen yard line where
Boone was given the ball on downs.
Boone then managed to make twen-
ty yards, but the quarter ended with
the ball on their thirty-five yard
line.
The second quarter, Boone not be-
ing able to make their downs, punt
ed against the wind and Webster
City recovered the ball on Boone's
forty yard line and commenced a
steady march which took them with
in fifteen yards of the visitors goal
where they were stopped and made
to relinquish the ball. Boone then
attempted forward pass which was
caught by Maxon, who, running
through a field Of players, made a
touchdown and goal was kicked by
Greenwood The locals then kicked
off to Boone. who punted back to
the center Of the field and the half
ended with the ball on the visitors
thirty-five yard line.
The second half started with
Prof. Newlin's proteges working
hard. Boone kicked to Webster City's
twenty yard line and the locals
worked the ball back to the center
of the field and booted to Boone's
twenty yard line. After three at
tempts to make the necessary ten
yards Boone attempted to punt, but
P. Sterling broke through the line
and blocked the ball which rolled
over Boone's goal and was recovered
by a Webster City player for an0th-
er touchdown. No goal was kicked,
leaving the score thirteen to moth
ing. The rest of the second half was
open play by both teams with the
ball in Boone's territory, but no
more scores were made. as neither
team was within striking distance Of
their opponents goal. No one on the
Webster City outdone his team
mates, as each man played hard,
consistent foot ball and each is en-
titled to an equal amount of credit:
for Boone, however, Thompson and
Valentine were stars. Following is
the lineups of the two teams:

and she chilled with a shock.
A human form was visible in the
swirling mass of quicksands, appeal
ing wildly for help, with arms out
stretched, sinking deeper and deeper
each succeeding moment.
In an instant Elizabeth forgot self,
peril, all save that a precious human
life was in the balance.
She ran to where the ruined old
bridge lay. 1t had spanned a mar
row brook, but long in disuse. She
knew fully the last possible resource
for assisting the man engulfed in
the Quicksands. How she managed
to drag one of the great rough logs,
the size of a railroad tie in thickness,
fully twenty feet, she never knew.
Superhuman strength seemed in
fused. Her hands were torn and
bleeding, her breath came in gasps.
She managed to tilt the end of the
heavy timber across the ledge Of
rock and let it drop.
The log narrowly grazed the head
Of the man now struggling waist
deep in the shifting mass. Both ends,
however, were safely anchored.
Elizabeth crept out on the log.

hand-giVe me the other"
Then her voice died away and her
soul seemed to go with it, for the
man she had saved was-Randel
Grey.
He was pretty well exhausted, but
he smiled up into her eyes with
grateful energy, as slowly, with diff
Guilty, he was extracted from his fear
full dilemma.
1t was like hideous dream with
golden awakening, as both reached
the soft ground and sank upon a
grassy plat exhausted, their eyes met,
and then their hands.

breathed. "I owe it to you-Eliza-

and swayed where she stood.

come" she moaned, 'but it is break
ing my heart"
For with a tide-like rush the sweet
past was now more wildly recurrent
than ever. Every bush, every rock,
every turn of the path renewed some
fond, sweet word he had spoken
the loved and lost one.
At last she reached the old trysting
place. She sank like a wearied child
to the moss-covered trunk and cried
her heart out, Then dull, dear ret
respect interviewed, and accepting the
burden her own folly had brought
about, she sat mutely submissive to
the fate that showed no brightness
ahead.
Hark!
Her pulses stirred at a cry of
alarm. 1t was vague, distant, but
echoing. It was call for help.
Elizabeth started to her feet and

ARBOR AND BIRD DAY
A Proclamation Issued by the
Governor.

The tremendous commercial value
of forests is fast coming TO be appre-
ciated. Effort is being made through
out the United States TO conserve
what remains and so far as posi- BILE,
refOrest large tracts Of territory Trees
have a value other than commercial.
They are friends TO man and beast.
Without friends man IL a forlOrn crea-
ture. Every choice tree that is plant
ed not only blesses this generation,
but graciously blesses coming genera
tions.
Birds too have an economic value in
the distribution of plant life and in
the destruction OF harmful insects.
They also have higher value. Liter
ature abounds In illusions TO birds,
their nests, songs, food. flight, migra-
tions, plumage and habits. On ac-
count Of their beauty countless num-
oers Of our winged frien6s have been
killed to meet the ruthless demands OF
fashion. May the fathers and moth
ers and their children OF today use
their best efforts TO preserve aud per-
petuate the lives of our useful and
beautiful birds Love for birds Is akin
TO love for man.
Therefore, l, Woodbridge n. Ferris
Governor of the State Of Michigan,
do hereby designate Friday, May 9th,
A. d. 1913, as Arbor and Bird Day,
and do request that this dav he OBJ
served by all schools. public and pri-
vate. and other educational institu-
tions by the planning of trees for beau
titying school grounds and parks. and
by conducting suitable exercises for
promoting the spirit of protection TO
trees and birds.
Given under my hand aud the Great
Seal of the State. this first day Of
April, in the year OF our Lord, ore
