Hearts Break While
Whisky EvapOrates

Gurgle, gurgle, splat, splat. A win
dow flew up on the other side Of the
Plaza and Jack Bailey sturck his head
out. Doors slammed open (sure they
can slam open) all about the Plaza
and the populace poured out into the
street. A gentle breeze carried the
aroma hither and theither and staid
citizens jumped up and clicked their
heels together. A dog nosed the wet
pavement and weaved off down the
street in staggering diagonals.- s.-The
chief of police went back into his Of
flee, the crowd dispersed, and the
ceremony was over, leaving nothing
but faint smell and topic for con-
versation behind.
And all this under an economic ad-
ministration.
Yes sir. With whisky selling in
Portland at five dollars a quart and
almost unobtainable at that. Some
ten dollars worth of drinking liquor
was poured out onto the Plaza pave
ment while the thirsty crowd stood
around and licked their lips.
e. F. Smith, H. s. Parmerlee and
couple of others were the official wit
nesses to the pouring out. All in
hailed the odors from each separate
flask. Opinions were advanced as to
the strength Of each sample and every
possible argument advanced in the
hopes of getting the chief to allow
just one little sip around. But all
to no avail. It smelled like whisky,
It looked liked whisky, but whether
1t was whisky only the dog which
licked the pavement can tell.
The wastefully wasted booze was
a quantity which has been collected
from hobos and others by the police
department and which, according to
the law we're 1t worth even thous-
and dollars a quart, must be poured
out.
Just plain waste, with everything
under the sun going up.
Five dollars quart for whisky.
Potatoes at unheard OF prices. 1t
won't be long before the ads in the
papers will read like this:
EARLY Rose potatoes, just in 10

fore being allowed in the vault with

But that has nothing to do with
the limerick contest which is now
officially deceased. We may not be
able to get them all in today and have
to slop few over into the Monday
paper, but the polls are closed and
eager contributors who contribute TO
us in preference to Judge, Life, the
Ladies Home Journal and other pub
lications will do so for the benefit of
humankind and the upheaval of liter
aure, and not in the hopes of win
ming anything substantial to light
fires with.
Meanwhile we are skirmishing
around trying to locate two or three
fearless intellectuals who will act as
judges. d. NJ. Lowe says that If it
was vegetables he would be with US;
Judge Watson says that he has re-
tired from the ring; Heine Heiden-
reich acted as Judge at a chicken
show once and ought to get by all
right, but unless Ashland wins the
Nedford game next Friday he won't
be in an approachable mood. How
ever, we have lists of the judges at
the roundup and the baby show last
Fourth of July, and from them will
probably be able to get enough to
judge our contest.
