most too far advanced for pupil, gets

peal.-Delta Independent.
President Wilson's preparedness pro-
posal will meet with the endorsement of
the vast majority of the people of this
nation. This country does not want to
be prepared for the purpose of aggres
sion, but protection. In some cases ag-
gression. may be necessary as means
of defense, and in that case the UniteI
States should be ready for such emer-
gency as may exist.-Boulder Herald.

The town council Of Meeker has re.
Gently passed an ordinance prohibiting
the sale of liquor within the town lim
its. This is the way the local authori-
ties show the spirit of cooperation
with the state officials in the enforce
ment of the prohibitory law, and thus
the officers have both the local and
state laws back of them when the law
enforcing campaign opens January l.

Mrs. Clyde Owen and her cousin,
Miss Eta Lindsey, came up from Lily
park this week on business errand
and had some frontier experience on
the way up. They made the trip in
buggy and on account of the recent
heavy snow encountered some drift
about hub-deep in the Cross mountain
section. One of the horses got down
in the snow and they had plenty of
excitement, but they were equal to the
occasion and pulled through all right.
The snow is a foot deep on the level
in Lily park, which means good crops
next season.-Craig Courier.
1t is going to be hard Shedding in
this neck o. the scenery for the ubi-
quitous bootleger after one week FROM
today, and he had better take to the
tall timber in the direction of Utah or
find some honest employment, and
most of them are opposed to the latter
on general principles. The warfare with
that class of cattle in this community
for several years past has been at times
rather strenuous, concerning which
those who have taken part in it are
willing to bear testimony. At first
convictions in courts of law seemed al
most impossible and juries habitually
disagreed, while the bootlegger and his
friends were willing to swear to almost
anything to escape the penalties of the
laws infractions. Gradually public
sentiment changed and this class of
pernicious law-breakers were thrown
into class by themselves, but they
have persisted in their work to a great
er or less extent. Il search and seizure
law was badly needed and now we will
have it, with few more trimmings,
and the man who now persists in vio-
lating the public's wishes in this re-
spect is going to get into permanent
trouble on and after January 1st. We
"have fought good fight'' under old
conditions, which has placed us in fine
fettle for real scrap under the new.
The man with chip on his shoulder
had better keep off the grass.-Pali-

Mrs. Jesse Kenyon, of Baldwinsville,
deaf mute, is the author of the fol-
lowing verse which was read at the
annual banquet of the Society for the
Deaf held at Utica:
Man is somewhat like a sausage,
Very smooth upon the skin,
But you can never tell exactly
How much hog there is within.
Away down South wheah dey all
spit cotton
En- de barroom gone, but not forgot,
ten,
Took away, Took away, Took away
from Dixie Land.
Dis prohibition am a holy terrah,
It's made the South one great Sahara,
Look away, Look away, Look away
from Dixie Land!-Ex.
