MAKING USE OF LENS
BY Jim Nance


It's been a rapid tramp, tramp, tramp
With the British at the front;
Their making wonder progress
On their bully Vict'ry hunt.
Perhaps it's cause when England
says
The town of Lens is mine,
The soldier boys will use the town
To see the German line.

seeking to justify q tortuous and

Red Cross Rooms. With the remainder
of the money we filled IA bags, five
other bags being filled by different Ia
dies and given to the men.
We wish here to extend sincere
thanks to Mr.. L. F. Holberg for ID
safety razors that were given for these
bags.
We still need 81 comfort bags made
and filled, so our cavalry boys may all
have these bags to add to their com
fort. Any who will make and fill bags,
please phone Mrs. L. F. Holberg or
Red Cross Rooms, This should be
attended to at once, as the company
may leave soon. COMMITTEE.

In the June American Magazine
"Sid" says: "a man tackled me
for job the other day. After
enumerating his various accom-.
plishments he wound up with a f.
nal claim that was intended to i'm
press me with his Importance once
and for all. He said that he was
a direct descendant of Bishop
Ump.te, ump-the most learned
man of his time in England. /
asked what time that was, and he
said that it was about four hun
dred years ago. ! told him that
allowing twenty-five years for each
generation-he must be the six.
teenth descendant. NO, not the
sixteenth he said, but the fif.
teenth.' Alright / said, call it
the fifteenth. Now let's take a
sheet of paper and see what your
credentials really are. Let's see

carrying the multiplication
back to the fifteenth preceding
generation I showed that at the
time the bishop lived, my friend,
the applicant, had exactly 80, 1858
ancestors. In other words, the
bishop was only one of the 80, 1853
human beings who were his for.
bears at that time.
'sYou have mentioned the bish.
op, but what about the other
80, 1917 I asked. 1T seems to me
that l ought to hear something
about them if I am to Judge you
by the good blood which you say
is in you. The bishop was alright.
You are lucky to have as much of
him in you as you have. But the
bishops stock has been consider.

would recognize you. What about
the rest.f"
''That is the trouble with this
heredity game-if you carry it
back very far. Old mother nature
is a wonderful leveler. She won't
let geniuses or boneheads breed in
a straight line. To the weak she
frequently gives child of incredi.

from getting abusive. To the bril-.
liant and favored of earth she often
presents q choice piece of ivory in
the shape of a dull son. Apparent.

forward together and not to play
favorites.
"Another feature of the scheme
is that it keeps us all interested.
Surprises abound on all sides.
There is no telling where the next
giant is coming from"
