MAKING A NAME FOR A TOWN

The citizens of every town have
it within their power to make or
mar their own municipal name. 1t
will be good or bad, just as they
choose to make it.
We of this town are no excep-
tons to the rule, and the citizen
who loves his own home will always
bear it in mind.
There are many good points in
favor of our community, and when
the stranger comes TO our midst
we should not fail to impress these
facts upon his mind. loi~~i
We should take him in hand, ex-
hibit the community as You would

That is the way regulations are
made.
But there is another side, and ii
is there that mischief is too often

Nothing just suits us. Nothing is

FLOWERS HAVE FOOD VALUE


The food of flowers is a matter
just beginning to interest the scien-
tifc world. Violets are said to con-
tain considerable nourishment. They
formed the basis Of a refreshing
drink, and in other forms figured
conspicuously in the feasts Of the an
cient Persians. The modern confec-
TONER crystalIizes them in sugar.
The old Turkish confections made
of rose leaves are declared delicious
by those who have eaten them. A
number Of cooks have discovered that
a handful of rose petals imparts a
flavor Of unparalleled delicacy to des-
serts of many kinds.
For those who do not care for
sweets, the gayly-colored nasturtium
offers delights to the palate. 1t may
be used as filling for sandwiches,
mixed judiciously with other mate
rails in salad. Its delicious pungency
appeals to the epicure, while physi-
clans say it aids digestion.
a favorite Italian dish consists
of fried squash blossoms. When
properly prepared this food is both
appetizing and nourishing. The yell
low blossoms of the common field
pumpkin may be cooked in the same
way, and to some tastes are even
more pleasing.

coLoRED CROSS IN SKY.

There was considerable excitement
about this section all day over the
appearance in the western sky of a
rainbow-colored cross, and Bible stu
dents have been searching for some
thing that would snlighten them on
the matter. The Book of Revelation
has been scanned and ministers
called up, but up to this time the
sign has not been interpreted salts
factorily.
The superstitious naturally foresee
continued wars all over the world,
and, within 1000 years, the end of
the world. Those who saw it, as the
sun came up, say it was a perfect
cross of brilliant colors.-Woodbury

Villa Displays
Military Genius
(Bv United Press. J


Ciudad Juarez, Mex, Nov. 29.-An-
other instance of tho uncanny military
genius and trickery of Villa that has
gained for him the name "the fox of
the Sierras," is being told here today
by refugees from the south.
On the night of his attack upon Chi
huahua he utilized a bold trick to en-
able his men to enter the city undetect-
ed. Learning through spies that thou.
sands of reinforcements had arrived
from Monterey and had been put upon
guard duty, he evolved this strategem.
When he arrived in the outskirts he
sent forward small details of his own
men with instructions to relieve the
Carranzistas on outpost duty. They
marched up, gave the password and an
officer informed the guard he had been
detailed to relieve them. Deluded into
the belief the newcomers were members
of the garrison, the outposts marched
away, leaving Villa s own men to
"guard" the town.
1t was Villa who first put into prac.
tice the idea of driving herds of cattle

mines. Since it has been picked up by

of cattle up before the trenches using
them as cover.
