The Man Who is Wanted

There's a man in the world
who is never turned down,
wherever he chances to stray;
he gets the glad hand in the
populous town, or out where
the farmer, make hay; he's
greeted with pleasure on deserts
of,sand. and deep in the aisles
of the woods; wherever he goes
there's the welcoming hand
he's The Man Who Delivers
the Goods. The failures of life
sit around and complain: the
gods haven't treated them
white; they've lost their umber-
elias whenever there's rain. and
they haven't their lanterns at
night. Men tire of the failures
who fill with their signs the
air of their own neighborhoods;
there's one who is greeted with
love-lighted eyes-he's The
Man Who Delivers the Goods.
One fellow is lazy and watches
the clock, and waits for the
whistle to blow; and one has a
hammer, with which he will
knock, and one tells a story of
woe; and one if requested to
travel a mile, will measure the
perches and rods; but one does
his stunt with a whistle or smile
he's The Man Who Delivers
The Goods. One man is afraid
he'll labor too hard-the world
isn't yearning for such; and one
man is alwa VS. alert, on his
guard, lest he put in a minute
too much, and one has a crouch
or a temper that's bad, one is a
creature of moods; so it's hey
for the joyous and rollicking lad
for the One Who Delivers
the Goods!-Ex.

MANY LEADING MEN
STUDIED THERE

If boys must work and earn
wages there are few places bet
ter than the printing Office.
Some of the greatest men the
world produced obtained the
best part of their education in
printing offices. But the print
ing office is no place for the
boy without brains or ambition,
nor for a dolt. who simply de
sires to go there because the
work is light or seems light.
1t is an excellent place for an
observing, thinking and stud
iously inclined boy. Good Citi-
zenship.

WILL ENFORCE NEW
STERILIZATION LAW

Madison. Wis. Aug. IL. The
state board of control of Wiscon-
sin, which has the management
of the state charitable. penal
and reformatory institutions, is
receiving a large number of in
quiries from relatives and
friends of criminal insane,
feebIeminded and epeleptic per-
sons confined in state and county
institutions regarding the pro-
visions of the new law provid-
ing for the sterilization of such
degenerates.
The hoard of control is the
Judge as to the advisability of
sterilizing any degenerates in
the public charge and there is
no appeal from it's decision.
The board intends to begin with
the female degenerates and
later take up the males. Several
hundred female degenerates
will be sterilized this year.

PRAYERS FOR RAIN
In KANSAS
Drouth is Devastating Three
States Deaths From Heat
Continue

Kansas City, Aug. 9. Relief
from the temperatures OF 100
degrees or higher which have
prevailed over Kansas and in
most of Missouri and Oklahoma
during the last week was prom
ised by the local weather fore
caster yesterday. He said thun-
der showers were probable with
in "a hours in parts of the three
states and his prediction applied
especially to Kansas, which has
been in a drought since the lat
ter part of June.
Prayers for rains were offered
in the churches of Kansas Sun
day.
The mercury again climbed
above the century mark in Kan
sas Saturday. thermometers in
some places registered as high
as 108. Some relief was afforded,
however, by a 12-miIe breeze
which had a cooling effect, be-
ing in striking contrast to the
hot winds which on all previous
days of the week have been gen.
eral over the state.
Three deaths due to the heat
were reported in Kanass. Farm
ers are doing only necessary
work, such as providing feed
and water for live stock and
digging cisterns and pipe lines
to conserve the water on hand.
The little grass left in the
pastures is so dry that extra
precautions are taken to prevent
fires. A passenger train set fire
to a pasture near Waldo. Kansas.
The train was stopped and pas
sengers and crew fought the
flames for an hour before they
were extinguished.
Chicago. Aug. 9. Although
Chicago today experienced a
temperature as high as that re-
ported in some places in Kansas
and Texas, the effects of the
heat were somewhat reduced by
brisk winds. Few prostrations
were reported. The tempera-
ture at the weather bureau at 5
p. m. was 81, but in the streets
