A report has reached town that Merton
Shaw of G company, who left with the
company to go to Westfeld, Mass, at
tempted suicide by cutting his throat with
a razor several days ago in camp. Report
has 1t that he had succeeded in ending his
life this way. but no official news has
been received. Mr.. Shaw had been en-
ployed in town on the farm of E. j.
Moseley since he was seven years old,
when his mother died. The late Mr.. Nose
ley was an uncle of Mr.. Shaw and when
the farm had been sold he still stayed on
the farm. When a call came for men in
the company he enlisted. but had many
times since tried to get opt of it. He had
no liking for the army and because Of
this dislike could not become accustomed
to teh life. Encouragement, and having
a better liking for the farm life which he
had always followed, is probably the rea-
son for his act. He was about 81 years
old. The report of his death by suicide
was brought to town Sunday by some of
the other members of the company who
were visiting here.
James William Clarkson died at the
home of his daughter, Mrs. Shelton. Of

SIDE TALKS
Do They Hate To Do It?
BY RUTH CAMERON

We were admiring a cunning little house that a friend of ours has re- gently moved into.
 Another woman who also has a small bungalow was present
 1T do love small houses," she cooed the work Is so much easier. When we built ours my husband said he wouldn't have an extra square foot So we studied out ways to make it as compact as possible
 They Felt They Couldn't Afford It.
 The owner of the new house is Q frank little woman. "Yes," she said, they certainly are easier to take care of. But the real reason we built so small was that we felt we couldn't afford a larger one. You know a young professor in a small college can't have everything he wants. And some day we hope to build a winter house too"
 The frankness affected me like a nice cool sea breeze on @ hot day. or a healthy, sun tanned, normal wom- an coming into a room full of high heeled, powdered nosed. dressed-up- to-the-minute fashionables.
 "That In-De-Da Way of Talking"
 There are few things that set my teeth on edge more than what the Cynic calls that la-de-da way of talking" I always feel like thrust ing a blunt fortnight II can't af- ford it" through 1t.
 But when we were telling the Au-
