TWAS EVER THUS

Consider the editor. He weareth
purple and fine linen. His abode is
among the mansions of the rich. His
wife hath her limousine and his
frsI-born sporteth a speedy space
eater. Lo, All the people breaketh
their neeks to hand him money.
A child is born unto the wife of
merchant in the bazaar. The
physician getteth ten gold plunks.
The editor writeth a stick and a
half and telleth the multitude that
the child tippeth the beam at nine
pounds. Yea, he lieth even as a
centurion. And the pround father
giveth him a chrome.
Eeho,d the young woman groweth
up and graduateth. And the editor
putteth into his paper a swell notice
Yea, a peach of notice. He tell
eth Of the wisdom of the young
woman, and of her exceeding come
illness. Like unto the rose of Shar-
on is she, and her gown is played up
to beat the band. and the dress
maker getteth two score and four
iron men. And the editor getteth a
note of thanks from the s. G. G.
The daughter goeth on a journey
and the editor throweth himself on
the story of the farewell party. 1t
runpeth column solid. And the
fair one remembereth him from afar
with a picture postcard that costeth
six for jitney.
Behold, she cometh out and the
youth of the city fall down and
worship. She pickett one, and 10.
she getteth lemon. But the edi-
tor calleth him one of our most
promising young men and getteth
away with it. And they send unto
him bid to the wedding feast. and
behold, the bids are fashioned by
Montgomery Hawbuck, in far city.

notice which the editor printeth.
The minister getteth ten bones.
The groom standeth the editor off
for a twelve-month subscription
All flesh is grass, and in time is
gathered unto the silo. The min
lister getteth his bit. The editor
printeth a death notice, two col
unlns of obituary, three lodge no.
tices. cubit of poetry and a card
of thanks. He forgetteth to read
proof on the head, and the fool
thing comes out, Gone to Her
Roasting Place.
And all that are akin to the de-
ceased jumpeth on the editor with
exceeding great jumps. And they
pullcth out their ads and cancelleth
their subscriptions, and they swing
eth the hammer even unto the third
and fourth generations.

Nails Made by Hand.

1t seems hardly credible that it was
almost to the close of the eighteenth
century that most nails were made by
hand. other countries were very slow
to follow the lead of England in get
ting out nails in large quantities. In
France for nearly a century light
nails for carpenter work were made
from wire, but until 1850 they 70

REST ROOM S

That rest rooms are wise invest
ments and that other cities are provid-
ing rest rooms is evident from news
dispatch from Green Bay, Wis.
The Green Bay people claim that
they have something new in civic i'm
provement. They have a large one
story brick building which they call
the Brown County Woman's building.
Men are also allowed the buildings
privileges. The building is primarily
intended for a rest room for out-of-
town shoppers. Tables, touches, easy
chairs, magazines, writing material,
layatories - in fact, every cOnven-
fence sought by the woman away from
home, is provided. Rooms for COM
mittee meetings and for lodge and
mass meetings are also provided.
If the city of Green Bay finds that
it is profitable to erect building
for it's out-of-town shoppers, we be-
lieve that Valley City would find it
profitable to maintain rest room.
