LAUGHS, LYRICS AND LOGIC
 By Clio Harper.


 Some modern wise-man brilliantly observed that it is not crime to steal time. What about the fellow who stole the night-watchman's clock in Springdale?
 Gen. Bill says that he can't under stand why the candidates are talking about holding joint campaign, when all the joints are to be closed up after Jan. l.
 Caleb Corntossle says that he loses faith in the wisdom of the majority when he looks at some of the officers it has wished on the public.
 Printers on the Little Rock dailies as well as others-continue to be reckless with the type. One of them last week, by changing an "r" to an "a" made the reporter say that a man N"o ohoI III liic uiilu anu lHe DulleI came out at point six inches below the waist"
 Son-Say Pop, do you know that John Bunny is playing with Barnum & Bailey now?
 Pop-You are mistaken; John Bun ny is dead.
 Son-Well, so are Barnum & Bai- ley.
 An imported speaker was delivering an address on civics in Little Rock recently, and she could not understand why her audience laughed uproarously when she said:
 "We appealed to our citizens to beautify our cemetery, and it has been made so attractive that our people are glad to pay $6 lot to get to be buried there"
 A headline says "Confucian Canons Figuring in China" Which is not half so bad, however, for the Chinese, as Japanese cannons.
 The Pedro correspondent of the Si- loam Springs Herald has a grievance at "That Ford" by which he means a river crossing, and not the Dertoit model. He voices his trouble in the following classic rhymes and near rhymes:
 Well we cannot help from thinking When ever we start to town, We can't hardly get there When the river is down, After so much high water And the ford filled up with drifts Some people wouldn't clean it out They do not care whiff. And pulling throug that gravel Is not such an easy thing You can't cross with half load With he biggest kind of team. And it is no fun either To stall right in the creek And wade out in the water Especially when it is deep. The dreams that never come true
 Are dreams the sweetest by far, As skies the deepest of blue
 Still hide the furthermost star. The dreams we cherished in youth
 Are gone like fabrics of air; The fame we visioned, in truth,
 Was greater than we could bear.

ZeppelinS Have Proved Failure
Says Expert On Aer0nauticS

PARIS. Feb. 19.-'The much
vaunted Zeppelins are utterly worth
less for purposes of war. They are
certain soon to disappear entirely as
factor in aerial navigation Of any
sort"
1t was Louis Bleriot inventor of
the monoplane, who was talking. He
had been reading carefully the Unit
ed Press interview with Count Won
Zeppelin, in which the inventor had
declared that dirigibles would be ma
terial factors in ending the European
war. Bleriot is Frances chief con-
sulting expert in matters aerial.
! This war has killed the Zeppe-
lin he continued. They are bound
TO disappear entirely because they
are impracticable. They are too bulky
and too light and frail for stern work
and are entirely at the mercy OF the
clements The very fact that they re-
quire small army of attendants and
the inability to provide the neces-
sarv bases for them near the front,
! with the monster sheds which are i'm
perative to protect them, are handi-
caps which cannot be overcome.
'.As a matter of fact, the Zeppe-
! lins have been entirely inactive dur
ing the present war. The small, but
abortive raid on the British seacoast
doesn't count, inasmuch as it failed
to accomplish anything of military
/ value"
Then YOU consider Paris and Lon
don perfectly safe from Zeppelin

I "Of course" he replied. granted
] ideal weather conditions, it will not
be impossible for Zeppelins to raid

believe single Zeppelin participat-

thing they could accomplish would
be the destruction of few houses

combatants.
AS far as military results are con-

We must watch under the sea more
