GENUINE PESSIMISM

According to the Mapleton
Enterprise the original crepe
hanger and thrower-of-co wat
er has been discovered in the
person of a disgruntled Min
nesota travelling man. Most of
the Knights of the Grip are good
sportsmen, but the one mention
ed in the following clipping is
certainly misft. can Enter
prise reporter encountered a
real pessimist at the depot We'd
nesday morning. He seemed to
be worried over the vast number
of slackers in northern Mime
sofa and reported the jails as
filled to overlooking with dis
loyal subjects, although he did
not designate them as disloyal.
The State Safety Commission
were doing unheard of and un-
constitutional things; dynamite
was being placed at Fort Shell

ruling of the Safety Commits
sion barred the woman; the big
millers were robbing the people;
the personnel of the Safety
Commission, especially that Of
John Lind was disgusting; five
soldier boys had already been
shot down in Minneapolis and
there was no need of any guards
there anyway. These were but
few of the things that were
worrying Mr.. Pessimist but as
this nation handled the copper
heads in the days Of 81 to '65
it will cope with conditions to-
day and this pessimistic travel

that business will be better
when he takes more cheerful
survey of conditions. The sun

business is going on as usual"

THE REAL SACRIFICE

THE real sacrifice that will
be made in this or any
= war is made by the men
who enlist as soldiers and sail
ors and go to the front to meet
the enemy on the fields Of battle.
Of course our men in battle
must be fed and clothed and
furnished munitions to do the
fighting, but those who remain
at home to furnish these sup
plies cannot lay claim to having
made anywhere near the same
personal sacrifice as do the en-
listed men. The men who raise
the crops, make the clothing
prepare the medicine and fur
nish the ammunition are ex-
pecting and will make a certain

THE POTATO BUG
THE potato bug is an insig-
nificant looking reptile,

THE potato bug is an insig.
nifcant looking reptile
= with a suit Of clothes like
a prehistoric prison suit, crust
like a hard-shelled Baptist, a
disposition like a mosquito-bit-
ten Chautauqua victim, and the
persistency of a collector for a
bought Observation-Disclosures
bill. The chief aim in life of a
potato bug is to grab hold of an
innocent good-looking potato
plant and keep hold until he
fills up and bursts, or until he
dies of old age or until the
plant gives up and crumbles
down in defeat. There's no
race suicide in the potato bug
family-in the morning at least
thirty sit where one sat the
night before, and the PUPPY,
wiggly, jelly-fsh young-uns just
simply dare the potato grower
to catch up with their parents
in this game of production-and
reproduction. The old folks
get on the ground early in the
season before the spuds ar,
planted and sit around and crit
icize everything that's done I'M
til the time comes for them to
get to work then they don't
stop to critic or anything else.
1t would take a Sherman or a
Billy Sunday to properly de-
scribe a potato bug. However
one mission has been found for
the breed-it does make rat
Ting good warrior out Of the
most pacifistic potato grower
outside of that it has no virtue
and great vileness.
Why hasn't some energetic
promoter undertaken the train
ing of potato bugs by the same
methods used with those re-
markable fleas of former state
fair days? We have some we'll
lay on the alter of experiment
at any experiment being
cheaper than Paris Green.

iacal as to invent a machine
that would do a thing like that!
It's quite bad enough to have
to take our chances with those
human accuracy fends who in
habit the banks Of this glorious
land. But to run amuck of a
machine as capable as that is
too much for human endurance.
