The war heads appearing in large type
across the front page of typed and censured
theories of what is happening on the Euro
pean battle fronts, are getting to be as mis-
leading as the Get Rich Quick" ads.
Because thing can be well done in any
particular way is no reason to believe that
there are not many ways in which, or by
which, to do the thing better.

Here's The Big Feeders

Champion Fried Egg Eater of the Berk-
shires was the title of Louis Morris of
Housatonic, Mass, before he entered in an
egg eating contest on wager. He had a
record of twenty-five eggs and the wager
was on his contention that he could easily
increase this record to twenty five.
When he reached seventeen eggs he was
seized with an attack of acute Indigestion
and doctor worked over him for an hour
before he was restored to consciousness
and pronounced out of danger He also
has record for fifty four ears of reen corn.
At the beefsteak dinners of many pol
itical clubs astounding records are made
in the consumption of viands. Some of
those who take part think nothing of eating
ten and twelve pounds of meat at one sit
ting, At one clam-bake held at College
Point recently eight baskets of food were
eaten by one diner. This basket included
leg and breast of chicken, TWEEN ty
five clans, two ears of corn and four po-
tatoes. This record is declared accurate and
authentic and is posted up in an East Side
clubroom. A Rhode Island farmer had
record of half bushel of walnuts, of which
he was extraordinarily fond. He used half
a small bag of salt while eating them.
A New Jersey blacksmith on a recent wager
ate nearly peck and a half of cherries.
He said he could go on eating forever" as
he put it, but those who witnessed his feat
declared they had seen enough to prove
the eater a wonder. A Chicago man inor-
dinately fond of mush and milk lived on it
for week not long ago, eating four great
bowls full of it three times day.

KNOCKING BOOZE

'T'll gladly hit the water cooler" says
George, Great Britain's worthy ruler,
''and cut the bugjuice out, as an example
to the laddies who blow the shilling of
their daddies for porter beer and stout.
By foreign foe we are endangered, and
Booze, like some fierce dog endangered,
is raising hob at home; it tolls not and
keeps men from toiling, and keeps them
hot with useless broiling, as they blow of
the foam. We're running short of am
munition because our workingmen's con-
dition recalls the old d. T.; the prov
ocation now seems ample, and SO I'll set
a good example-no long cold drinks for
me-" IT'S thus with all the warning
nations; they're finding out that liquid
rations are fruitful of despair, far more
than all the swords that slaughter, the
submarines down under water, the airships
in the air. In Russia now no vodka S
flowing; we see the thirsty moujiks going
to tap the helpful well; and France, the
volatile and merry. prohibited the old
''green fairy" that sent her sons to hell.
The German soldiers heard the Kaiser in
formed them it would be wiser, to give
the pump show; thus all the rulers are
deciding that Barleycorn, the long abiding,
means trouble, strife and woe.

JOKER'S BUDGET
By Paddy

A bunch of true sports came over from
Hudson Wisconsin last Saturday to cross
bats with the M. P. S. Base Ball nine
And it is rumored that they came over
with the full intention of showing us shut
ms, good time, and, they not only done
so, but "got by with it. In their line up
they had several Ty. Cobbs. Hans.
Wagners. and O'Tooles. but it must OF
been an off day for them as they did moi
show up in their best form. But couple
of pinch hitters that they rung in, in
the ninth inning made it look kind of bad
for the home bunch, and it became
necessary to put Hippo George in the box
who managed to hold the sluggers down to
seven runs. We only hope that the Hudson
gents enjoyed the trip as much as we did
their company and hope to see them again
before long. Of course this invitation is
only meant for visit, and do not wish
them to understand that we wish them to
bring their trunks along.
Blonde may be right about the effect
drink has on a person in relation to
crime, but at the same time would hate
to be little can of foam just inside
Blondes cell door these hot nights.
The Baron says 81 may not be able to

The Jingoes

The publishers of yellow papers cut up
all kinds of jingo capers. and naught can
make them cease, for CORY war they wildly
camor, aud use the bludgeon and the ham
mer on all who stand for peace. To sell
more papers they'd be willing to see the
nation go forth spilling its own and others
blood: they'd stir old hates and make them
hotter, and nag our statesmen on to
slaughter, and stain our flag with mud.
They care not for the hopes of others, nor
for the tears of wives and mothers, nor for
the swaths of dead; to boost a frenzied
circulation they would embroil a PEACEFUL
nation and stain the green sod red. When
next the country calls for fighters we ought
to see that martial writers are in the
foremost rank; we ought tosplace them
where the foemen can shoot each one in
the another name for tank. I'd
like to see these birthstone eaters go forth
with cleavers and repeaters to Stay the dus-
ky Mex, to see them through the desert
drilling and forced to take hand in Kill
ling till blood ran down their necks.
Though they are fat and wristed,
the whole blamed bunch should be enlisted
and trotted to the front: before a mile of
ground they'd covered they'd wish the
White Dove Ger them hovered-they d
cuss the warlike stunt.

And his lips begin to culver and he's

When his Dig round eyes are filling with

And at last you find him sobbing with

Don't you get tender feeling sort of

Till you feel like crying with him-well

When naughty little fellow who's the

Has been guilty of the very willful deeds

And you We got him on tina carpet, where

And you quickly feel the pressure of a

That has stolen rather slyly into yours

Don't you overlook his conduct well,

When the naughty little fellow that has

'PICKUPS & PUNCHES
By Uncle John
Rev Benson was visitor at the institution

Rev. Benson was visitor at the institution
last Friday on spiritual business.
Guard Tucker, accompanied by his sister
and little boy from White Bear Lake, made
a trip thru the Institution last Wednesday.
Christian Science services were held in
the Auditorium last Sunday morning with
| the usual attendance. We understand that
a vocal solo was rendered during the
services bya lady.
Two car loads of steel, and two of pig
iron were received in the yard during the
week for use in the foundry and machine
shops
Six car loads of hemp were received and
unloaded into the ware houses, which keep
the yard crew busy for several days.
Guard Mclean, with crew of men were
leveling off the space between the foundry
and black smith shop during the week.
Usher Brennan will be the busiest man in
the State during the week of the State Fair.
The institution will also be overrun with
visitors.
Paddy, the Deputy's right hand man was
on the gallery last Saturday evening looking
up students for the night school. We heard
this remark "Do you want to 60 to schooIf
MOI "Glad to hear it," he replied.
Rev. Benson was in the Auditorium with
a party of visitors last Thursday; showing
them thru other departments of interest also.
Several new instruments have been ordered
by the Board of Control for use in the Band
and Orchestra, Among them are, Flute,
a Piccolo, and E flat Clarioner. The Flute
is bad ly needed in the Orchestra.
Professor Schmidt has bought fine
selection of Orchestra Folios for Moving
Picture Shows-26- pieces in each Folio. We
have tried some of them, and they sure will
make hit.
Thanks, Mr.. Blondy, for your COM
pliment. Butch says he would feed you
with nice juicy steak for the next 365 days
if he had chance to. No mistake that
we can pitch some. but by different plate,
savy.
The Chautauqua circle will be in full swing
again, and we hope to see all the old mem
bers present at the opening meeting Sep.
10Th.
We are sure that if we had the seating
capacity in our yard, and let the visitors
come in on Saturday to see the ball game,
that our park would be too small. Although
it is big one. We look forward to big
improvements next season.
The Allstars from Saltwater were too
much for the M. S. P. last Monday. They
took home the bacon. Strange, that some
days our boys play alright ball, and the
next they play nothing but errors. You
will have TO work together in harmony if
you want to win game, and not sulk, as
some of you do.
The Deputy Warden held his monthly
interview at his office last Thursday; and as
usual, great number were granted an
audience.
Asst Deputy Whelan escorted party
of ladies thru our Silent City last Friday
paying the hospital and green house special
attention.
