Nv. d. Bridge believes that not only
honesty but turning out for the other
Fellow is the best policy. He told an
incident of the highway that had come
10 MS personal notice this morning. A
farmer with a big load of hay hitched
70 a team of mules was approached
from behind by an automobile. The
mules We're spurred to a much more
Disk walk but the farmer steadfastly
held to the middle of the road, which
was none too wide, anyway. The auto
lst, madly honking perforce trailed
the slow-moving hayrack. This went
on for mile or two, the frantic Cog
gle-eyed driver of the car getting hot
ter and hotter with every foot Travelled,
all to no use. Finally the road was
intersected by a cross-road The ma
chlne made a dash around the hay
and came out in front, the farmer
loosely thanking him for speeding up
MS temperamental mules as the ma
cnlne whizzed past at last. But the
game wasn't thru. A quarter of a
mile beyond the crossroads the auto
stopped. When the hayload came up,
the machine began backing right to-
ward those touchy mules. Back, back
II came-the animals rearing and
pIung1ng. The hay and the farmer
toppied over The machine passed on.

The Kansas State university has in
its faculty a man of considerable ma
tional distinction in his department of
teaching. 1t is Prof. E. M Hopkins
of the department of English at K. u
He is a director of the National Coun-
Gil of Teachers of English which will
be in session in New York from No
vember 80 to December 2. He will
speak before the general session of
the Virginia State Teachers associa-
ton in Richmond November 20. As
president of the National Council of
Teachers of English, he will deliver
the opening address at the annual
meeting. He has been a director of
this association since it was formed in
1911. One of its first activities was
to establish the English Journal, of
which Professor Hopkins as associate
editor. An American speech commit
tee, having charge of the academic
and scientific aspects of the work of
the American Speech league, was APP
pointed, with Professor Hopkins of
Lawrence and Supt. H. B. Wilson of
Topeka as members from Kansas.
Immediately after the rganizat ton
of the council, the Kansas Association
of Teachers of English was formed as
an affiliated body. with a working
plan so complete and effective that it
has since been followed in a number
of other states. Professor Hopkins
was active in forming the Kansas
branch, and is editor of it's Bulletin
published four times, a year. He has
published a report. of the cost and la
Dor of teaching English in secondary
schools and colleges, and he is now
engaged in making a more extended
report on elementary school English
Professor Hopkins is one of the
charter members of the Society of
Mayflower Descendants, which held
its annual convention in Topeka yes

at its first meeting. He is now in

FARMERS LOSE ON
APPETITE OF NEW
BRAND OF RABBIT

Dodge City. Kan, Nov. 23.-Ever
hear of a Be1-Rabbit? That is the
name of a new animal that is running
fruit trees and gardens. and scrat CHI
ing potatoes and turnips out of the
ground in Ford county. The animal is
much larger than an ordinary rabbit
so it eats things that no self-respect-
ing bunny would eat, but it is so slow
that an ordinary dog can catch it.
Several years ago the Ford county
commissioners repealed the bounty OF
rabbits as they thought they had ex-
terminated the bunny tribe. Three
years ago two crates of Belgian hares,
enroute to Colorado were broken open
and. the animals escaped. Farmers
claim they have crossed with the ma
tive Dummies and the result is the raw
enous brute named the bel-rabbit.

particular to give q remedy intended to
counteract the cause which produces the
headache, but we must also give q remedy
to relieve the pain until the cause of the

Francisco, the Majestic will make its
bow to the theater public in its new
role.
But with the new policy of the Ma

you from much less cash for the same
attractions than the one at the Grand.
Patton will be at the Majestic in
Lazy Bill for two days, Friday and
Saturday. The next attraction will be
"Old Kentucky" which bids fair to
rival "Old Homestead in the contin-

lucky will be followed at short in
tervals with other standard road
shows.
The using of the Majestic for a
large portion of the attractions which

feasibility of the Majestic is one of the
