HER SIDE LAND HIS
 WHY A MAN WANTS A SON
By ZOE BECKLEY

Cora asked, bridling with mock jealousy, though not all of it was affected
 "A man does not know how to picture a woman chum except as 8 sweetheart" David replied. That's why he does not find himself wishing for one in prefer ence to a man after he has found his sweetheart-as I have. But a man chum he knows. He has had chums of that kind in childhood, youth all through life.
 And almost always there's something lacking or imperfect in him that makes the companionship only partial affair. Halls a good fellow, a tonic when you're playing. - But play is all he knows, and you can't help feeling sorry for his inef- fectualness when it comes down to the work side of life. Fritz is wonder of efficiency, but he fits into play about as comfortably as a steam roller would in flower garden
 well. I have a hankering to have the bringing up of man who will be all around I want to give him the kind of mind that can forge the anchors and spin the gossamers of thought I want him to know how to work and how to play. I want him to be able and gracious. I want him to have his one look into the book and the two looks into life. In short" he smiled, "I want man chumr'
 And IT want woman chum on the same pattern," Cora said softly.
 David scratched his head in mock per- plexty. Then his face pretended sud- den illumination.
 CT have itl' he cried Since you in- sst, there's no other solution but to have"
 But Cora clapped her hand over his mouth

New Trial Granted

Montgomery, April n-(SpecalD Because the trial judge permitted the state to show that he had been prosecuted in the United States court for making
 liquor, Joe Sims of Marshall county, who was convicted in the Marshall circuit court of grand larceny, was given new trial by the court of appeals Tuesday
 Associate Judge Sanford in an opinion
 said Sims was accused of stealing an
 evaporator that there was no evidence to show that the instrument was in any way connected with the making of liquor
 and that he could. not understand why
 the trial judge permitted an Nextraneous
 issue to be entered into the case. Tn the
 case of the state vs. Junius J. Pearce of Montgomery, which was appealed from the Calhoun circuit court, the court held that a real estate dealer who has paid a license in one county must pay a li- cense as auctioneer in arrother county if he engages in this business. Pearce , sought to auction off a piece of property in Calhoun without paying license, con- tending that he had paid license as a real estate dealer in Montgomery. But the court in an opinion by Judge Brcken said the license must be paid.

WHY A MA

I'll teach him swimming as soon as ne can paddle,' David said softly, touching the tiny coat Cora was sewing. "Him?" Cora protested. "Hery Him. David gently but firmly de- cided.
 Cora put down the royal robe. Why do you want it to be him?" she asked curiously.
 Because I want yours and mine to go farthest, fare best and win the biggest prizes in the game" David said. "If he should incline that way, I want him to be eligible for the presidency of this country. If he should prefer being presi- dent of railroad, I'd want him to have chance at that Being a girl would be a considerable hindrance to him in either direction, you see. You'll admit that, won't you? And you wouldn't want to cramp the young ones outlook for the future, would you?' he smiled.
 But the outlook is broadening for women, too," Cora argued
 "Yes, a few mighty ones are filling big places in spite of the fact that they are women," David admitted But don't want our son to have any handicaps to overcome; not of his own making. The big prizes in life are hung man high. The showing and pushing of the crowd for those prizes man can stand best. Men make the laws, men rule the nations, men run the railroads, the trusts, the courts"
 q guess you'll find a queen or two heading nations,' Cora broke in.
 But queens are going out of style" David responded. NO, dear this is mans world.
 Well. we women will see that we get a full half interest in it,' Cora said spir- itedly.
 "Amen to that!' David said ferventy. But that's a little time off Mean while"
 "Then there's another reason why should like 1t to be him." David went on softly. T want man chum after my own heart when I am oldish-some one with whom to take long tramps, go camp ing and roughing, swin and box with and smoke pil>e with"
 And, with the exception of the pipe, why isn't a woman chum just as good?"

COMMUNICATED

If County Commissioners Facer
and Bergeson have no explanation to
make of the tax situation and are
wanting to shift that senture to the
assessor they would like perhaps to
explain their actions in the appoint
ment of County Physicians.
In the North District is a physi
clan of prominence who was anxious
to succeed himself to this position.
Our County Commissioners were in
dignant that one of the opposing par
ty should ask such a favor. ITO the
victor belongs the SPOIL" and would
listen to no farther argument.
In the South District were two
doctors equally educated and equal
ly anxious for the position. One a
Democrat the other Republican;
the former receiving the recon-
mendation of the Cache County Ex-
ecutive Committee, which caused Mr..
Facer SO much indignation that he
pleaded for reconsideration of this
appointment, and gave the position
to the Republican who had already
held the position for four years.
Why this inconsistency? Perhaps
he, Mr.. Facer, would like to tell
you that the one receiving the APP
of his. Very similar to the tax
matter is it not?
