THIS WAS A JOKE
ALL APPRECIATED
Two conspIrators Left Behind on
Sleiohino Party, Decorate
Rooms in Fine Shape.

When a merry party bound for a
sleigh ride left the Y W. C. A. build
ing last night they did not know they
were leaving two conspirators behind
who were bound to be revenged for
not being taken in the party. The
two who were left behind pelted the
crowd with snowballs and then pro-
ceeded to decorate the club room
where the party was to be entertain
ed on the return trip.
Red and white paper was used in
decorating the room, and there was
profusion of red paper hearts every
where. Four small tables were COW
cred with Cupid's ensigns. To cap
the climax, two dummies were made
and placed on settee, surrounded
by screen. The dummies were ar
ranged In true leap year fashion, and
brought fond memories to some mem
bers OF the party-perhaps. Placards
were posted conspicuously, calling at
tention to the nature Of the party.
The curtains of the room we're
pinned tightly together and paper was
hung behind the curtain SO that the
guests had to wade through a curtain
of paper to get to the club room
The conspirators were captured in
the gym, but their worst punishment
was being complimented on the fine
appearance Of the room, and they had
an opportunity to enjoy the apprecia-
ton. Of their friends at their efforts.

PEOPLE LIKE GOOD MUSIC
This Would be One Feature Along
With style show and Corn and
Canning Clubs
Proposed.

.s y K Il If /. a n.-
The idea Of band Of national repu.
tation as one of the chief attractions
for the proposed fall celebration in
Keokuk was suggested today by one
who has been active in the old street
fairs that Keokuk used to hold. The
band idea was suggested to President
Justice Of the Retailers and he
thought 1t would be fine idea.
People have become educated to
good music. and are anxious to hear
good musicians, and 1t Is believed
that band such as some Of the best
ones IN the country could be secured
for q weeks concert here and that
people would be attracted by this fea-
ture.
The band would be ono Of the main
features along with the fashion show
perhaps. and could give concerts dur
Ing the time Of the fashion exhibit.
The band combined with corn clubs,
canning clubs and perhaps q better
babies contest would provide as fine
a feature for q celebration as one
could wish for.
The band idea is meeting with IA
vor wherever 1t has been suggested,
and while it may cost the merchants
little more, 1t is believed that it will
be worth the additional cost.
Another person suggests one Of the
big fireworks displays. which would
be pay affair and would serve to en-
terrain the people here in the evening.
The band could be used In connection
with an event Of this kind, as well, or
could give evening concerts.
In any event, 1t is believed that the
idea OF big band here Is feasible
one.

GOOD EFFECTS OF TROUBLE
Much of the Advancement Of the
World May Be Traced to Those
PugnaciousIy Inclined.

Most of US love trouble-that Is,
most Of the human race. Man cannot
remain contentedly out of trouble for
any length of time, it seems. And Ii
you doubt the statement, ell you have
to do is to remember the numerous in
stances when you were getting along
all right, and then deliberately "butted
into" something that was not your at
fair.
Take the matter Of politics, If you
please. Half Of the political troubles
we read about are unnecessary. That
is to say, lot Of the people mixed up
IA politics are so mixed for no pur-
pose in this world save that they may
make trouble for themselves or some
body else. For it really makes little
elected indeed the average man takes
an interest in politics not because he
thinks by doing so he can best serve
the public, but because he wants a
fight.
OF course all of us like to fiatter our
selves that we are doing something for
the nation or the country or group
of people. But the truth is most Of
us are doing nothing of the kind.
But, did you know that most Of the
good that has so far resulted to the
world has come from the troublemak-
ers, and not from the peacemakers p
