COMMENTS
Delta played nice clean game Of
ball and deserved to win.
Too bad we didn't have a larger
crowd from town it's a great pleasure
to play in Delta.
! A brilliant feature of the game
was a spectacular effort by Funk te
catch fy-he turned a complete
somersault but the ball oozed out OF
| his glove.

Tears would flow like the mighty
Rhine.
And I'd have the honor published
afar
Of a funeral crowd of morn forty
over par.
So give me the spring when candida
tes bloom
With their red bandannas damp but
all attune
To the solemn hymns that rent the
air,
And long pious faces as they list to
the prayers.
You can have the summer and its
pesky heat,
The fell and winter, but I've got
them beat
By the beautiful spring with its
ample share
Of candidates that'll surely fill every
chair"

L. S. Williams, Fred Croninger and
George Hallauer to superintend and
direct an automobile escort for the
Wauseon Firemen and Wauseon
Band at the convention. All auto
owners in Wauseon and vicinity are
earnestly requested to join this escort
with their machines decorated with
Wauseon pennants. Pennants cost
but 10c each and each machine ought
to have at least two pennants on each
machine and the more the merrier.
The Club will see that suitable and
appropriate banners are provided for
use in the procession. The parade
will start from Wauseon at about 7
or 8 o'clock Wednesday morning.
Communicate with any member of
the committee named above as to fur
ther particulars. But above all plan
to go if you, have an auto. Show that
"This Town is Your Town." that it is
not "dead one" nand don't forget the
Wauseon pennants.

SPRING SONGS.

LTD like to die in summer" quoth
one,
Amid the radiant glare of torrid sun;
Tho, truly, l cannot say exactly why,
Unless it be that when the sun is
high
And rides in splendor in the azure
sky,
It makes ones Heaven seem so nigh"
"I'll choose when leaves fade and fall
From towering oaks and old elms,
tall,
Symbolic of the far, clear echoing
call
That finds the ear of one and all,
For then it would seem I did but obey
Natures law when / was laid away"
I'd rather die when the winters snow
is hurried hither as north winds blow,
And toss and fling the great limbs
bare,
Of forest trees with most needless
care.
For 'twould all seem so trite and
/ true
That death was for me but winter
too"
And then fourth had his little fling
"For me I'd rather croak in the

When the candidates are hustline

Major Nicely was quite surpris ed
when he was Informed, few days
Iago, that the bills introduced by Mr..
Davis no longer have any standing:
in the house and that to be on the
safe side he would better Introduce
them himself, in order that they
might not be defeated by the mere
raising Of point Of order against
them. 1t is not believed the senate
will raise point of order in regard
to the bills which have already pass

made to have the house pass them

A slight inklng of it's magnitude can
be ascertained from the fact that the
value OF the new cars, meaning those
purchased during the past year, is es-
timated to be on an average OF $4,000.
while the old ones will average $500
each.
West Virginia has mad an inhcri-
lance tax law in effect for the past
ten year.. and many fortunes have
been included in it's stipulations. The
largest one during it's time Of effect
was that OF the late Senator r N
Camden, of Parkersburg. But many
are Moulded OF which the public
hears nothing For instance, last yea
$50 estates were contributors to the
fund. Only one million dollar es-
tates was affected last year, but
many dollars rolled into the state
Golfers from this source besides this
enc mentioned. Why this is one can
readily see when it is stated that
the inheritance tax law affects the
following limitations: When the
amount bequeathed to children, lin
cal descendants, and lineal ancestors
is 100000; to wife $4,000; and to
husband is $4,000.
Hhc state Of West Virginia has an
established reputation in the pritcd
States, but it's wealth is based no. so
mucn en- per capita as on its re-
development, and many will continue
to invest, but the good old money
making schemes adopted by other
states have been forgotten here, be-
cause the opportunities offered show
that the money invested on three per
cent propositions is scarce and those
who are credited with millions invest
1t in greater risks, SO far as the re-
turn is concerned.
The resources Of the state pay the
greatest returns and the Weather
men Of the state will continue to de-
velop this end Of the commonwealth
until it fails, and then with all look
forward to the time when farming
lands will Re on level with the wide
spreading sections Of the west
Many have said that West Vir-
ginia has the farming lands, but not

Inventor Of the Alrbrake.

Who really invented the airbrake?
Certainly the automatic airbrake. the
one that has proved practicable and Of
permanent value In modern railroad
ing, was the product Of the late George
Westinghouse's ingenuity. His patent
for the automatic brake was taken out
In 1872. superseding the non-automatic
or straight" Westinghouse airbrake
patented in 1869, and later the West
inghouse vacuum brake was invented.
But, as In the case OF most other In
ventions. there are several claimants
for originality In this field. Thus
