ROLLER SKATES ENJOYED
BY YOUNG PEOPLE

The roller skate is coming back"
1t never really went out, as far the
children are concerned. Now how
ever young ladies have taken it up
not in skating Kinks, by the way,
but in the open air, for exercise
and fun ON the sidewalks and
smc Goth pavements of city streets.
On any fine evening on the best and
most exclusive streets in the resi-
de-ts districts of Chicago, groups
and couples of girls from Is to %
may be seen gliding along over the
smooth surface of the walks. The
fad has struck many of the smaller
places in different parts of the coun
try and already the village kill-joys
are protesting and calling for laws
to prohibit skating on the sidewalks
1t was ever thus. No sooner does
youth find new way of amusing it,.
self no matter how innocent than
some long faced, vinegar-blooded
reformer is out with protest and
a demand that tie young people be
presented with the alternative of a
bandoning their fun or becoming
criminals by the infraction of a
prohibitory ordinance. There was at
one time well-grounded prejudice
against skating Kinks. These places,
i nowadays, are usually so Well con-
Quoted that they are comparatively
safe. But there can be no just OBJ
lection to the young girls bringing
the bloom of health to their cheeks
by slch beneficial exercise as roll
Ter skating ON the sidewalks of their
home town and in company with
| the same girls with whom they as
sociate at other times, Let the re-
i formers purchase roller skates and
use them. 1t will work off some of
the bile and give them a brighter
outlook ON life

CHARLES F SORENSEN
ON JURY DUTY.

Mr.: Charles F. Sorensen out on
r. IT. ID. 2 Extra, called Monday
morning while on his way to court
He is c,ted to appear and serve
as juror during tie May term of the
D.str ct Court.
The hardship that this does to
the farmer who is striving to get
out II S crop and care for his chores
where no hired man can be secur-
ed, is incalculable. In Mr.. Soren-
sens case he was unable to procure
help so that his corn planting, IF
not done may work a big loss if an
early frost should strike this coun-
try in the fall. Then he has several
COWS and heife,sp to milk which his
faithful wife will be obliged to do
besides csrng fer horses and hogs.
The worst of all perhaps will be
that his wife will stay ON the farm
one until his return.
1t is ito be hoped that the judge
will be sympathetic enough in his
G So as to allow his dismissal from
jury duly.

THE TINE IS AT HAND
FOR 4TH AMUSEMENT

By the thoughtfulness of the en-
tertainment committee of our last
Fourth of July large amount of
morey was saved to our city by, en-
gaging home talent, in place of tall
est from outside sources, that new
er gave general satisfaction. We re-
fer to the entertainment put on by
the ladies of the Thursday Club
Their two rendiitons were care
fully carried out and were listened
to by all WHO could get within hear
ing distance of the stage and their
efforts appea, ed to be accepted with
enthusiastic satisfaction.
The time is again at hand to pre-
pare entertainment for another
Regulation Extra Crowd and the
question, what shall we provide is
to- soon be determined 1t is to be
hoped that something may be dcne
to retain the good money to be
spent for entertainment as it was
last year. If nothing better is to be
had we hope the committee will in
duce the High School to put on
their play.
