YOU MISSED ONCE
But Don't Let Anything Keep Yol
From Your Great Chance
This Time

Just few months ago you let sliI
a chance. You remember about those
cutlery sets-how fine they were and
how absurdly low the price. 6-piece
set that sells every day down town
for $3.50 was offered by the Star-Mir-
ror for $50 in case you took years
paid-up subscription to the daily OF
weekly Star-Mirror. A five-piece set
was sold for S1.20.
You have regretted not getting one.
You could have used it at home, or yoii
could have given it away as wedding
present.
Fortunately it is not too late. There
are a few sets left. We will mail one
to you; or you can call and get it.
A kitchen without one of these sets
is not a kitchen at all. 1t is nothing
but a make-shift.

AJTOMOBILE REGULATION

Numerous and important as will be
the duties of the new council none
shuold take precedence over the en-
actment of ordinances to regulate
automobile traffic on the streets of
Moscow. There are several points
that need careful consideration.
One of these. Of course, is speed.
That subject has already been handled,
but it is net satisfactorily handled as
long as drivers continue to swing
around corners at a break neck rate
and drive furiously up and down so
busy a thoroughfare as Third street.
Why some one has not been killed be-
fore now is one of the mysteries which
Mortified bystanders and narrowly es-
caping pedestrians have not heen able
to solve. Third street seems to offer
peculiar temptations. For one thing
ii is paved, and for another the grade
is such as to rouse the ambitions OF
drivers in regard to getting up hill in
the shortest possible time Coming
down Third, cars are sped around the
corner at Main and turned south on a
short curve so as to imperil the lives
of any drivers coming north on Main
Many drivers do not know or at
least, do not observe the accepted
rules fer turning and passing. Many
drive on the wrong side Of the street.
Many turn at the wrong places and
without giving a signal backwards to
indicate that they intend to turn. Cars
are frequently left for an entire day
in front of place of business. When
brought up to stand at the curb, cars
should net be placed parallel to the
curb. That is hoggish practice Cars
should tie nosed in at an angle OF
about As degrees. Cars stationed on
the west side of Main street should
I've headed south; cars stationed on the
east side Of Main street should be
headed north
Moscow is small city, and some
persons think we ought not to put on
airs and affect the standards and
practices of larger places But in pro
portion to the number of residents,
there is just as much automobile driv-
ing in Moscow as there is any other
place in the country. The streets are
full of machines, and by the end OF an
other sixty days there will be host
of new cars driven here.
More than that, goodly portion OF
out of-town shoppers come to town
these days in cars and not in wagons
If YOU don't believe it, try to count |
them some fine Saturday afternoon :
Perhaps you'll have the surprise OF
your life as we had about week ago |
when we tried a little mental arlth-
metic about machines on Main street.
If we are all going to take to wheels
instead of reins, we can't be too pro-
gressive in telling people where they

are no good unless you have Eaters"
This mooted question was referred
to Billie for decision, who, after
busting the ashes from huge yam
with his shirt sleeve-said with the
air of a recognized connoisseur:
at Is the opinion Of this here court
that neither the 'possuIns nor the
taters are Of any earthly use unless
they are both of them together on the
same premises; then, they are the
best thing man can possess"
At this juncture the barking of the
dogs changed to fierce growls, indi-
eating general fight, and Billie
siezing a torch cried: "Come on,
boys, If JEFF gets his jaws on that
varmint his hide viii be worthless"
Suddenly the sounds ceased and
Billy said: "Stop WHARF you are,
boys. It amt 'possum after all"
as it coon?" said Harry.

However, we needed no further in

stop to investigate the numerous

found that he had sold out and de-
parted for realms unknown.
These tales created a mania for
hunting treasures, and during its
fever heat there arrived in our midst
a unique character whom we shall
call, according to our reserved rights,
by the name of Billy Nimrod.
Surely he was a mighty hunter. He
knew the haunts, the habits and the
dispositions of every denizen Of the
forest. His skill as a hunter was at
tested by his peltry which included
skins from the bear, wildcat, coon,
the salamander and the mole. His
steel traps were put where the pos
sum and the coon made their nightly
raids and contributed much to his
revenue. His dogs, Nan and Jeff,
were most trustworthy In the whole
neighborhood. Billy said that as soon
as he started on hunt the dogs
knew what he was after and kept
track" of the desired game. But
with all their reliability they had a
penchant for certain animal which
Billy said had numerous odor," and
some said that Billy himself en-
couraged the dogs in this because the
skins commanded a price better than
the coon and 'possum.
Nicknamed "Polecat BILL
As matter of course the dogs
contracted smell as numerous as
the animals themselves, while Billy
from association, absorbed enough OF
the odor to gain the nickname OF
"Polecat BILL
This name does not necessarily
