assist in a song service for a church

sided. One of the hymns was that
old, familiar one which reads. Hide

ran upon the word without warning,

objectionable break and becoming
panic-stricken, he shouted at the top
of his lungs, Skin me, o my Saw

Mr.. and Mrs. A. T. Lynner rejoice
over the arrival of a nine-pound son
at their home last Saturday. Both
mother and son are doing nicely. Mr..
Lynner has been raising the estimat-
ed value of the young heir from day
to day. He started in with a million
dollars. After walking the floor a
part of one night he added another
million. The third day he doubled
the value, and then, after walking
the floor again (all young fathers
walk the floor, please remember), he
tackled on a billion. His latest quota
ton would supply the European coun-
tries with cash enough to continue
the war for a generation. All this in
spite of the fact that some learned
college professor has ascertained,
from computations based upon the
earning capacity of the human race,
THAT the average boy is worth exactly
NINETY dollars and thirty cents.
The Wallace Scout seems to think
that something is wrong with the
human race. Discussing the large at
tendance at the Birth of a Nation
during the week of it's presentation,
it continues: THE admission was
