Would Halt Europe's Suicide.

ROME via Paris, June cardinal
Gasparri, papal secretary of state. in
an interview today with a representa-
tive of tn" Associated Press declared
that the Pope was Influenced in his
peace efforts solely by a desire to stop
the suicide of Europe
:, The holy father. said the cardinal,
Tin his most ardent desire for peace
has no particular interest in view, de-
spite what the newspapers that are
enemies of the papacy state to the con-
trary.
IF peace is concluded through the
friendly intervention of the President
OF the great American republic or
Through his catholic majesty the King
fof Spain. his holiness will equally thank
THE Almighty that an end should a last
have been put TO the butchery which is
fthe suicide of Europe"

"Well, you see !l!l!!" said
Bob, 81 forgot to bring your
minnows. They are still on the
eating house porch, five miles
back, and l know Smeddv will

The illustration shows what
Bob looked like when Smeddy
got to Stone lake. They got the
minnows to fish with.
Talking about fish reels and
lines, Bob told this one while
Dragging about his fine reel.
He said, Last fall when |
cleaned up my reel and oiled it
and spun it around good and
fast, | put it in the box for the
winter, and what do you think?
When | opened the box this

The last reports we have from
the Sugar Camp lake section is
that the venerable Bob Thurs
ton is beginning to show signs OF
taking his annual plunge and his
friends are preparing to witness
the big event. Many from Chi
lcago are expected and Mr.. Gus
ter, the advertising manager of
the Northwestern, promised a
special as soon as the date is an
nounced.
But this has nothing to do
with Bob's memory, or his abili-
ty to shoot or to take away
from him his medal or reputation
of being the biggest liar in Pike
county.
Bob is a joker. Last summer
he tried one on rs m e d d Y"
(Schmedtgen). Bob was taking
out Mr.. and Mrs. Robert w. Rich
ards and invited Smeddy to fol-
low him in another boat.

The trip was to Stone lake tor
pike. The start was early as the
trip is a long one through the
long channel from Sand lake to
Stone and the entrance to Stone
lake from the channel is much
covered up and hard to find, SO
this is where he expected to
catch Smeddv-expecting him to
pass the opening and row up the
channel about ten miles. Bob
was so full of his joke that his
memory failed him at the start.
When Bob entered the short
channel to Stone lake, he said, Il
hope Smeddy misses the entrance
and we will have good one on
him.
To the surprise of the Richards
when they got into Stone lake
Bob changed his tone and said,
Gosh! l hope Smeddv don't
miss the channel"
What's the matter, Bob. |

out their great brown feet as cleverly
as II they had taken swimming lessons
