SER|O COMIC
Variety Again; Rose and Thorn
Who is Who and
What's What

The half expected happened
again in Salisbury Sunday morn
ing. Periodically the metropo-
lis of this county enjoys a sensa-
ton of the same sort which es-
tablishes her right to this dis
tinction. Almost any towp
can enjoy an annual domestic
explosion but its a live wire that
shocks social sensibilities with a
double geared sensation of only
momentary duration. Social
ethics do not guarantee immuni-
ty from connubial penalties to
absentees nor does lex scripta
protect one who goes to sleep
at the or a switch, so to speak,
from being ruthlessly or roughly
disturbed, which leads to the
further observation that while
all men have an undisputed right
to snooze in the arms of Morph-
eus, and Morpheus the undisput-
ed right to soporific embrace
ment okany man, unsympathet-
ic moral law aided and abetted
by lex non scripta draws the line
at more than one pair of femme
arms encircling a man d. at the
same time. In this particular
case if Morpheus kept awake the
other woman didn't and the doc
trine based on volenti non fit in
juria, was disregarded by the
intefpleader when he arrived at
8 a. m. In fact according to
disinterested witnesses, all plead
ing, disavowal, alibi, habeus
corpus and sundry other
motions were simultaneously
brushed Ito use a mild term)
aside by the party of the third
part and rough-stuff introduced
in lieu thereof.
Not desiring to deprive our
Salisbury contemporaries of the
scoop they are entitled to ard
which they will avail themselves
of undoubtedly, we give no names
or particulars.

Drainage Ditch Suggestions

My tax receipt urges me to
revert again to proposed improve
ments on drainage ditch. The
maintenance tax will create a
fund of more than ten thousand
dollars, properly applied we will
have sufficient safe guard against
all ordinary floods, but if used
by experimental squads here
and there it will be fritted away
without permanent betterment
of the canal. Faults of engineer
ing should be corrected. Gaps
in levies filled or diked and a
even grade of % inches to the
mile maintained. This can only
be done by running a dredge the
entire length. ] would suggest
that our county court fix a day
at its January term a full discus
sion of the matter. Certainly
the coGrt should be disposed to
do the things desired by the tax
payers who have created the
maintenance fund. 1 Hope the
courier will see its way to aid
the valley land owners in getting
best possible results from appli-
cation Of Observation-Disclosures fund.
/ would suggest also that the
court be urged to publish a full
showing Of the now status of
the drainage debt. The initial
assessments was about 60 cents
now it is 80 cents exclusive Of
maintainance tax). AS allof the
interest and an instalment Of
principal is paid each year, we
do not understand why our an
ual tax is increasing instead Of
diminishing.
Yours truly

a lovely winter day. bright and

GERMANY OFFERS PEACE
Victorious But Nowise Vicious
Second Peace Proposal
Up To England

Tuesday the German Chancel-
lor caused to be transmitted to
,sreat Britain and her Allies, the
following:
The most terrific war ever
experienced in history has been
raging for the last two years and
a half over a large part cf the
worIdsa catastrophe which
thousands of years of common
civilization was unable to pre-
vent and which Injuries the most
precious achievements Of hui
HOur aims are not to shatter
nor annihilate our adversarles.
In spite Of our consciousness OF
our military and economic
strength and our readiness to
continue the war (Which has
been forced upon us1 until the
bitter end, if necessary; at the
same time prompted by the de-
sire to avoid further bloodshed
and make an end to the atroci-
ties of war, the four allied pow
ers propose to enter forthwith
into peace negotiations.
"The proposition which they
bring forward for such negotia-
tons and which have'fcr their
object IA guarantee of the exis-
tence, Of the honor and liberty
of evolution for their nations
are, according to their firm belief,
an appropriate basis for the es-
tablishment Of a lasting peace.
The four allied powers have
been obliged to take up arms to
defend justice and the liberty Of
national evolution. The glorious
deeds Of our armies have in no
way altered their purpose. We
always maintained the firm be-
lief that our own rights and
justified claims in no way con-
troll the rights of these nations.
''The spiri ual and material
progress which were the pride
Of Europe at the beginning Of
the Twentieth Century are
threatened with ruin. Germany
and her allies. Austro-H Hungary,
Bulgaria and Turkey, gave proof
of their unconquerable strength

PLAY MANCHESTER FRIDAY.

The Maysville High School basket
ball team will play the Manchester
High School team at the NJ. II. s. gym
nssium Friday evening. This is the
second time that these two teams have
met in this city. The previous games
went to the local five by a small
score. The Manchester team has i'm
proved since this time and are hoping
to even matters when they again meet
the boys with the gold and white jer-
seys. The shift in the lineup after
the disastrous trip down the river has
made 1t very hard to forecast who will
represent the Maysville school in the
game, but Coach G. c. Nance hopes
by Friday to have five picked that
will be the best the NJ. II. S. squad
contains.
