Our good friend, Gustavh Konke, is
on the road to full-fedged American
citizenship. having taken out his first
papers looking to that end. We have
always had warm place in our heart
for Gustav because of his industry and
integrity, and now he occupies larger
place in our esteem than ever before.
1t means something under present cir
cumstances when man voluntarily re-
nounces the land of his birth and pledges
his allegiance to the land Of liberty and
the principles Of democracy. Our great
republic has conferred unnumbered
blessings upon its citizens and guests,
so many, in fact. that there are thous-
ands, native born and foreign, who feel
no sense of obligation to her and. who
have turned liberty into license. But
Gustav is not one of these. He appre-
ciates the blessings our country confers
and has become one of her supporters
from choice. That he may long live to
be an honor to his newly established cite
izenship is our sincerest wish.

CADDY WISE TO HIS JOB
Preferred to Serve New Golf Player
Because She Never Knocked Ball
Out of Sight.

Henry was a nice red-haired little
boy and the best caddy at the club,
so he was in great demand. Mrs. S.
had just taken up golf that summer.
The first time she played she happened
to have Henry. He was so good that
the next morning when she went out
she asked for him again. AS they were
coming in on the ninth hole Henry
looked at her wistfully and asked her
if she were going to play the next
morning. If she were he suggested
that he wait for her.
So it got to be a habit for Mrs. S.
to play every morning and for Henry
to wait and caddy for her. One day
Mrs. S. said:
"You know, Henry, I don't think it's
fair to you or to the other golf players
for you to caddy for me every time, be-
cause you are the best caddy up here,
everybody says, and I'm about the
worst player. Suppose we switch to-
morrow and you go with q good play
er. Wouldn't you like to do that?"
And Henry shook his fiery little
head, "Why, all the other caddies just
envy me caddyin" for you, cuz when
you hit the ball it never goes out Of
sight"
