BOOSTER vs. KNockER.

I'd rather be a booster than knock CT any day; I'd rather glow with hope than doubt the words I have to say; I'd rather miss my guess on another mans success, Than to view his bitter struggle and to prophecy his fall; I'd rather say, He's coming" than He's going!" When I'm summing up the labors of my brothers, I'd rather boost them all I'd rather be :'could be-, if I could not be an "are," For "could be- is maybe" with chance of touching par; I'd rather be a "have been" than a might have been," by far, For a might have been" has never been,
 But "has been" was once an "are." I'd rather be a yellow dog and sneak around and yelp, Or else a bump upon a log if couldn't boost and help. For a yellow dog is just a. dog, he can't help being yellow, And a harmless bump upon log, don't knock the other fellow.

PULASKIAN BOY
 WITH THE COLORS
cHAS. E. CLAY WRITES LIFE IN THE NAVY IS THE BEST LIFE FOR ANY
 BOY.
Great Lakes, H., Feb 12, 1918.

Great Lakes, H., Feb 12, 1918. Dear Readers of the Pulaskian:
 As am feeling kind 70 blue" this sage about the Navy life. Boys it's the best thing you ever done, when you enlist in the Navy. If you are not a man when you enlist you will be soon.
 I have gained 32 1-2 pounds since the 9th of November, 1917, and I can use the boxing gloves to a certain extent. My weight at the present IS 1855 pounds. So you see what it does for you.
 The only thing that you will miss is your sweetheart and mother, of course your mother worst of all, for you can't say Mamma" can you, or will you wash me shirt this after noon?" it's get your khaki brush and get to work And there's several other things you miss, but it is only a teaching to you what mothers or sisters love means.
 You come in the Navy without a trade, but when you leave you know several. can do anything that comes to hand I was a seaman, second class, until I transferred to fireman, second class, and I am expecting to go any time aboard a ship. So you boys can imagine something about it.
 Since I have been in the service I have drawn $55 in cash and if I'd been outside I'd spent that. I have $65 on the books now. So join now, boys, and see the world through a cannon" I expect to see it before return home.
 For the past three days it has been thawing here. The snow was about 2 feet deep along the streets, but it's vanished now and it is raining; it seems like "Old Arkansas, but 1t isn't, for my loved ones are not here.
 We'll, as this is all know, I'll close for this time, and send another soon.
 So just remember that Somewhere in France you have a friend who is doing his bit for our country. With good luck to all I'll remain your sea- going friend, Charles k. Clay.

INCOME TAX RETURNS
 TIME IS EXTENDED

The time for the filing of income tax returns has been extended from March 1 to April l. The blanks for the partnership returns have not yet been received. It has been found that on account of the complicated na- ture of the returns it is almost i'm possible for an ordinary citizen to make out his returns, and the assist ance of experts is required. The low exemption is catching large number of people who had thought few years ago that they would never be classed with the income tax payers and government bond holders. But now very few escape.

AN ATTRACTIVE
 QUOTATION BOOK

"Oftentimes it doesn't need more than one high thought-some pleasing phrase from Shakespeare or Milton. some sterling truth from Emerson, mere clause from Browning or Tenny- son to make whole day blessed for us."
 It is upon this theory that Mrs. Blanche Chenault Junkin, of Granite Mountain Springs proceeded in the collation. of the contents of delight full pamphlet that has just been is- sued from the press. "Quotations" is what the name implies, representing the garnered thoughts of great minds as gathered by the compiler during the last five and half years. Mrs. Junk in is great reader of the best litera- ture, and from time to time jots down pretty passages, impressive truths, and helpfult thoughts. The little book should be on every desk and library table-and when you are inclined to be blue, drink deep from the inspir- ing words of the worlds greatest | thinkers, and your gloom will disap- pear.
