We move the | ladies from the restricted district in there and charge 'em fifty doll ITS week rent, and take a rake off of ten cents in the dollar they takes in. We charge the cafes that sup ply 'em with grub one hundred dollars a month for the monopoly, and make 'em dig down 12 I-2 cents on every two bits worth of flicker they sell. Then we rustles in the town and gets all the gamblers rounded up and puts them in the ground hOor which We turns into a regul9r monte carlo. We gets a rake off, and if things ain't comin our way we rus the suckers up against a cold deck and scoops the pool. We have black jack, faro. craps, and other games with nc limit and our revenue coming in regular. We might bar pangingi as too mild and not active enough for even an A. B. What with women and gamblers makia money for us when we sleep, If we don't organize a municipal mint has the Dream Theater or the Pioneer Min ing Co. backed off the map, I'll eat my hat
 Well, Sir. don't you know that after som rag chewin' about who was to get the contract building the casino, we settled down to gett- ing the*a ideGs into shape, and when all was finished we had big four story red lighted, red painted building right on the piaz2s and the fun last and furious day and night.
 We sure had some show And the way the money kep rolin in was a sight for sore eyes. These pikers of Nome ought been there, believe me The city clerk got round shouldered packir the gold to the tin b2nk, and hc had to hire an express wagon t9 pre-, vent hisself breakin down under the strain. They had to hire two auditors to keep the balance from going into the billions. and there wasn't man, woman or child paid a cent of taxes in Scrubville.'
 The Red Eyed man paused n his remarks.
 When will the Victoria be in''. he asked in an inquiring way.
 What happened after Scruhvill< took in all that money" asked 6 councilman who had been listening in the back of the crowd.
 The ed-Eyed man seemed to re collect himself. "I forget to tell yn", he said with a smile that made his eyes redder than ever, There come change of Administration and we had a new game warden. He busted up the show and luggei up the Councilmen before the Grand Jury And with sigh of relief the Red Eyed man walked on.

They were talking a5Ott the de pleted condition oi the treasury and how Nome would best get money to clear off the balance in arrears, when the Red-eyed Man butted in without as much us "by your leave.
 Them councilmen", he re- marked, do make me tired They ain't got no more notion uv finance than the Snake river bar. That's just the trouble as I size it up. and you can see for yourselves if ain't right. Here they are, they ain't got enough to flag a hand car and what do they do? Just raid a gambling house or pull the spoI tin women and make off with the bail bonds forfeited. There ain't 20 science to that.
 If you people ever was back in Missouri, you sure heard of Scrubvillc. come from there and mcbbe I say it who shouldn't, but them folks back there had the right dope.
 ScrubvillC at the time I'm speak in about, was a little mining camp on the down hill with the sHids greG3ed. What with war and war prices there was no one in business wanted to poTy up nuthia for taxes. But we he'd &s I've a bunch of councilmen as ever passed the day matchin' racing snails in the council chamber, and We all knew that if q cruel emergency q arise they'd walk across tEe stre2t and meet it half Way to be the first to shake hands with it.
 Well. Sir. this town was in such a state thGt we was thinkin of ap- pointin' q food and coal admins trator, and the Chamber of Com merce sent a comity to make preli- minary arrangements The gink that levied the assessments done all right, but when It come to extracting taxes there was no dope that would make the business gents come through. Consequence of this condition was that the city was bust and the treasury peluk There wasn't a cent :n it and the city clerk was thinkin of peddling the safe in his office to the Second Hand store to rise the price of coffee and. l reckon he'd a dcne it too, o'ny for the Chief of Police kep lookin at him through the wirders in the door of the Fire Department.
 Anyhow it was then that a wise guy comes along and explains that he'd the right dope to untangle the mangled sHoin of the city's finances as doe used to say. and he'd clear things up if we'd ony give him some lee way. Take all the rope you want young feller" says the Mayor. says he, at a mass meetin of the citizens to bid goodbye to the Judge. and you go to it."
 This was a sort of correspondence school expert from the Rockefeller Foundation and had a certificate from Barny Baruch.
 So we all waited at the next council meetin for him to tell us his plans and the city hall was packed to the doors.
 Far sI rccollect now this is what he said Gents, he says says he, this towns on the blink and we all know it. There aiEt no out for it as far's I can see unless the S- berian trade is cultivated and we get tkc most of it. But it's up to us to capitalize the o'ny source of

STORIES AID TO TEACHING
They Are Of Little Value, However,
Unless Teacher Enters Into
Recital With Enthusiasm.

All children love stories. The earli-
twined with the wonderful narratives
Of fairies and COLLINS told by grand
parents at bedtime. And so vivid were
the impressions made, that even now,
in spite Of our scientific knowledge and
logical reasoning, we sometimes find
ourselves subconsciously believing ii
all.
This natural love Of stories may be
and should be made the basis of all
historical teaching. But however seri-
Gus our purposes may be, the stories
themselves should be source of JOY
to the hearer.
Conscientious teachers, taking up
the task Of storytelling as an added
obligation Of schoolroom duty. wonder
why the results are not what the evil
dence Of other story-tellers had led
them to believe. Storytelling as &
duty, Enlightened and unbrightened by
a genuine love of the story and ar
eagerness for the Joy it Is to bring tC
the listeners, can never prove a sue
cess.
The story-teller must enter with al
his heart and all his enthusiasm into
the life and beauty Of the story he Is
telling, in order to achieve the best re
suits. Without this he cannot win the
response of his hearers, nor reap tn,
reward which should be his own.
