Let's see, at that rate how long will
Clarkshurg have to wait for that new
postoffice?
AS has been remarked before, war
Is far from nice.
BY the way. now that they have
taken to regulating pretty much every.
thing at Washington. wonder IL any
steps have been taken TO suppress
derby hats?
The derby season is casting its dark
and depressing shadow before and the
government ought to do some little
thing that is popular every once in =
while.
Also something ought to be done
to make the girls take in their white
