Crises, of which this country has
had its share, are less expensive than
war, if you are looking for little
consolation in these strenuous times.
Those young men who are
chasing Villa are at least seeing a
good deal of the country, as the post
ers in the recruiting offices intimated
they would. Governor Capper
has had a ball club named for him,
baby named for him and a pump
kin named for him, but would trade
them all for Thompson's goat

Wednesday afternoon movers out
fit travelled north through Pratt and
some boys with the outfit thought
they would have some fun by trying
to see how many automobile tires
they could ruin by breaking up bot
ties and scattering same along the
road. They did good job of it and
scattered enough to ruin many cars.
A gentleman coming south discov-
cred what they had done and came in
and reported to Sheriff Judkins. The
Sheriff hurried away and overlook
the movers and brought the boys
back and made them pick up the
glass. That was better punishment
than to have locked them up. A lit
tie hickory oil" mixed in with the
labor of picking up the glass would
probably have accumulated the pun
ishment.-Pratt Union.

Did you ever stop to think that
whenever you take newspaper a
year and refuse to pay for it, you
have stolen $1.OO from the person
who sent it to you? 1t costs the pub
fishers $1.19 per year to send you a
paper once week. The subscrip-
ton price in some localities is $3.50,
but in many places it is only 800.
Thus, If every subscriber pays
promptly, the publishers have def
cit of 10 cents to make up from other
departments Of the office, which most
publishers are willing to do. Indeed
some papers go farther than that and
pay a premium for subscriptions. The
fact to be remembered is that every
subscriber who accepts newspaper
and refuses to pay for it, has taken
dollar out of the pocket of the own
er of the paper.-Beaver Herald.

The domestic science class of the

Here's one the Stafford Republic

Away back in the days when the
speech of people was more forceful
than elegant there lived an old dea-
con who had daughter by the name
of Hannah who did not belong to the
church and was said to be a little
wild. During a revival in the neigh
