The wolf The wolf.
Do you remember the story about
the little girl who called wolf twice
and when her mother came running
she found the little girl was just fool
ing her? And a third time she called
wolf. when a wolf was really there.
But her mother thought she was do
ing just as she had done the other
two times. So she did not go TO the
little girl.
Well, the wolf is the animal Artist
Barnie and 1 saw in the zoo this
week.
1t is a sly looking creature with
oh such stiff. coarse hair. It's tiny
ears are erect and pointed. Its nose
is sharp and its legs are rather longer
than those of the shepherd dog.
The wolf is very swift Of foot and
hunts deer as well as many other ami
mails Although killing larger game
for its food when it gets the chance.

AUTUMN.
Only the rusty hills. a silent stream,
a quiet depth OF forest and the
Little sounds Of life that seem

GAUNT winter came stalking in
like an unwelcome and impairment
guest Our hope will be that he will
turn right round and go right out
again.
If there is anything in tradition or
precedent we are entitled to that
hope. With little variation from the
rule the first furry of snow has been
followed by season of pleasant
weather which we call our Indian
summer, as contradistinguished from
| our squaw winter, which is now in
| our midst
There should be time and oppor-
tunity for gathering our late crops
and a few more rounds at golf.

HIS FINGER ON THE PUBLIC
PULSE.

Mr.. Mix's speech at Mishawaka
Tuesday night was an exposition of
city affairs which marked the student
of local government and a concep-
ton OF the needs of the city which
could proceed from only one source,
familiarity with the details of NUM-
cipal business and comprehension
of the possibilities of capable admin
istration.
Mr.. Mix has not been mayor Of
Mishawaka for several years, but it
was apparent from what he said to
his fellow citizens that he has kept
his finger on the pulse OF municipal
affairs and now that he is again asked
to assume the duties of mayor is in
position TO take up the work he drop
ped on his retirement and which has
been continued along the same lines
by Mayor HerZog
No preparation will be necessary
20 equip AIr Mix for an intelligent ad-
minisi.ation and as for efficiency we
need only point TO his record as mayor
and to his business career. The
thousands of Mishawaka citizens who
know the democratic candidate for
mayor personally or know OF him by
reputation viii smile at the statement
sent out by the opposition that Mr..
Mix is too much occupied with his pri-
waite business.to give the affairs OF the
city the attention they require. The
old saying that If you want some
thing done get a busy man TO do it, J"
applies in the case OF Mr. Mix. He
is a busy man. one Of the busiest in
Nlisnawaka. but he has the faculty Of
doing things, the facility of efficiency.
II there were no other plank in his
platform Mr.. MiN'S declaration for
"the largest unit OF service for the
smallest amount OF money would
DE ample TO commend his election 10
the voters OF Mishawaka. II is the
whole thing in q nutshell-economy.

welfare ~ the CITY.

do that. without justifying and extoll-

Webster County
Roads Excellent

County Commissioner johnson has
just returned from an automobile trip
which took him through fourteen
counties, and during the trip he paid
especial attention TO roads. bridges
and culverts. The counties visited
were Gage, jefferson, Webster, Nuck.
oils, Adams, kearney, Phelps. Dawson.
Buffalo, Hall, Hamilton, York and
Seward and he declared without hest.
ta,ion that the best roads found dur.
ing the entire trip were in York county
and the worst in Dawson county
Webster county has the best bridge S
and cu ivcrt~ and the commissioners Of
that county seem To have the matter cf +
handling flood waters down To IA more
scientific point than those of any
other county visited by Mr.. johnson.
No bump or jar notifies the traveller in
that county that he has struck II
bridge or culvert, and experienced
road builders assert that this is q
thing which is extremely hard to OF.
viate.
Commissioner johnson stated that
Buffalo county is a close second to
York on the matter of good roads.
aud the contrast between it and Daw.
son, lying directly west, is nothing
short of startling. A big sign board
marks the entrance from Dawson to
Buffalo, but this would not be needed
to show that the two territories are
under different government.
The commissioner, who has been
studying road work assiduously ever
since he assumed office, about four
years ago, learned many new and ad-
things during this tri'
and things that he will lie able To turn
them to good account. He found the
people everywhere interested in the
good roads movement. Lincoln Even

AN C0N0MIC WASTE

The outflow of Nebraska money to
buy life insurance in the eastern com.
panies Is an economic waste. YOu
can stop it SO far as the taking of new
life insurance is concerned by patron.
izing a Nebraska company.
q This Is Il question worthy of con-
sideration. Think il over when ap.
preached by agents Of eastern compan-
les. You will be surprised at the
number of excellent reasons which
will occnr to you for keeping life in.
surance money in Nebraska.
The people Of other states are
liberal in their patronage of their
home companies. For instance, near.
ly one-half of the life insurance bought
by the citizens of New York and Iowa
is bought from New York and Iowa
companies.
q Now, Mr.. Nebraskan can you give
one good reason why you should send
money out of the state for protection
that can be furnished by Ased. streuA.

Policy is the best asset any man can

RESCUE WORK At COLUMBUS.
Relief Parties Expect to Penetrate

Columbus, March 2s.-Some definite
idea as to the total number of per-
sons who lost their lives on the west

flood broke thru the levee is expected
to be gained today. At daybreak hun
dreds of rescue and relief parties
started for the flooded section with
supplies of clothing, food and fuel. To-
day dawned crisp and cold. but clear.
and indications are 1t will get much
warmer. Flood victims suffered great

is receding rapidly and rescue parties
will be able to reach many inundated
sections on the west side today.
Soldiers Ordered to Shoot.
West Columbus remains under mar
tial law. Militia companies on duty
have been ordered to shoot looters on
sight. Thousands OF curious people
and those with friends and relatives in
the flooded district are being kept out
OF the west side by police and troopers.

Deaths following as the result OF this

All the conditions in the main por-

the water having receded to such all
extent as to allow people to wada
about the streets.
The conditions in South Peru are
still desperate. Ten feet of water yet
lies over that section.
