 You would have thought that was Lee Bridenthals motto if you had seen the nice present of strawberries he made Don't Worry's folks one day last week. Lee took us by surprise, as we wasn't thinking strawberries had any notion of ripening yet. Many thanks, Lee, for the berries. they made a delicious strawberry short cake, which there is nothing better.
 The strawberries are ripening, blackberries are full, apple orchards are loaded with fruit, gardens are full Of onions and lettuce and potatoes, corn is growing, oats are fine, wheat is good, chickens will do to fry, pigs are as fat as butter, the old COW gets her belly full of grass every day, and best Of all, and on top of all these other blessings. comes a big strawberry shortcake Who says old Arkansas isn't blessed with good things?

F1OMHN SOAGES tON 10 NlGEED
BY THE SCHOOL BOARD
The School Board as it is made up
at the present time consists mostly
of members, who are either employ
ers of labor themselves, or friendly
to business interests.
And yesterday they asserted them
selves when a proposition to teach
the children of the city little some
thing about collective bargaining was
presented to the board by Ella Flagg
Young.
The resolution, which was pre-
sented by Mrs. Young at the sugges-
ton of the, Woman's Trade Union
League, was one of the most human
resolutions put to the board. But the
board killed it.
1t aimed to teach the boy and the
girl some of the bigger things they
would certainly be called on to face
after they left school.
But when the resolution was pre-
scented Charles S. Peterson, who said
he was once union man. but for
the last Is years has been an en-
ployer of union labor, and Jacob
Loeb jumped to their feet and be-
gan to howl trades unionism.
/ The two clauses they mentioned
mostly were:
Resolved, That the Woman's Trade
Union League of Chicago urge upon
the educational authorities to estab
fish industrial schools in connection
with the public schools, and that
courses of instruction include, be-
sides the subjects necessary to such
training, the history of the trades
taught, the history of the evolution
of industry and a sound system of
economics, including and emphasize
ing the philosophy of collective bar
gaining.

travel. Well be kings"
And how he leaped into the ring,
prancing, joking, shaking the ropes
over in Sullivan's corner exultingly!
The world was his.
And now see that other sullen,
nervous Corbett of a few>years later,
preparing to meet Fitzsimmons at
Carson City, New.
Anxious he was; gruff and peevish
with Delaney and his friends: almost
savage at times No smiles now. No
cajolery for kisses from the wait
resses.
To think that I'm giving that red
headed fellow a chance at me for
$25, 000," he'd grumble. and if lose
what will be-a bum"
When Delaney took him to task for
training too hard, he flew into a pet
and refused to have anything to do
with Billy for days. He didn't even
want to talk to him.
The fear that comes to the man on
top was gnawing at his heart. Worry
was unnerving him, until this cratic
man became as different from the
former sunny Jim as night from day.
l firmly believe that if he'd had no
time to brood over that fight; if he'd
been compelled to go into the ring
with Fitz at an hours notice, that
he'd whipped the Australian handily.
But the thing he fought was an
adversary without gloves, the skele-
;ton'of anxiety that plucks at all who
reach the top and must defend them
selves against contenders.
