Rats Eat Evidence,
So Court Continues
Ancient Flour Case

St. Louis.-The docket was be-
ing called in the United States dis
trict court when the case of the
United States VS.. 2S6 sacks of flour
was reached.
The district attorney asked for
continuance.
rs this the case that has been on
the docket the last 100 years" Judge
Dyer inquired.
Eyes, your honor. this case has
been on the docket for the past 200
or 300 years." the district attorney
replied gravely. =,
''What has become of the flour"
the court asked.
Il believe the rats have eaten it"
said the attorney.
Sufficient reason. The case is
continued" was the ruling.
The cases were brought several
years ago under the pure food law.

ONE SMASH UPON
ANOTHER IS way
F0CH won FIGHT
General Maurice, Former
British Director of War 0p.
erations, Tells How It
Was Done.

Chicago.-Smash! Bangl Smash
Bangl Bingo!-one with the left, one
with the right, another with the left,
a big kick-that is the way the war
was won.
At least, that is the way Gen. Sir
Frederick Maurice, former director
of operations in the British war Of
fee, says it was done. Foch did it.
General Maurice explained that was
General Foch's way of doing it.
Marshal Foch was a man of very
few words" explained General Maui
rice. but he illustrated his remarks
with plenty of action-gestures. 1t
was. during those few anxious mo-
ments while the Germans were driv-
ing ahead. A statesman, knowing the
true situation, asked of Foch, But
what will you do if the Germans
strike again now?
"What will | do?' repeated Foch.
'Ah'-Then he stepped back and de-
livered a powerful blow at an i'm
aginary adversary with. his right,
then with his left, then another with
his right; then big kick!
1T seems funny. but Marshal
Foch was not just talking. He
meant it. Every other general in
the war-British, French or German
all started their big offensives
with the big kick. Foch delivered
the punches to wear out the German
reserves. Then he kicked, and it did
the trick. 1t explains how Foch beat
Ludendorff."
The general then told in detail
how the big battle was won. He
told of the offensive at the right,
and then the big drive at the center,
then the big kick"

Dew Bath In Morning
Not Approved by Wife

San Francisco.-A dew bath in
the early hours of the morning may
be spiritually uplifting, but Mrs.
Cora Belle Rensted presented her
objections to it as part of her hus-
bands daily program in Superior
Judge van Nostrand's court. :.
She is defendant in suit for di-
vorce brought by her husband. Carl
Rensted, disciple of Mazdaznan. a
sun cult. One of her allegations is
that Rensted wanted to buy place
at Stockton where he could indulge
in dew baths.
Mrs. Rensted says the baths are
taken about o'clock in the morn
ing. She is not sure whether they
are a community ceJsmony or a pri-
vate and individual rite

Be Informed ,"Not Guilty.

Dayton, Ohio.-It was 3 O'Clock
in the morning when the jailer rat
tied the key OF the door of Edward
Scheidt and yelled: "Hey. Scheidt,
wake up! You're not guilty" 1t
took several such outbursts on the
part of the jailer to awaken man
who went to sleep while the jury
was celebrating as to whether or
NOT he was guilty OF murder.
"This is 'heluva' time to be wax
ing a fellow up" was Scheidt's COM
ment when he finally grasped the
situation.

LIFTERS AND LEANERS.

There are four kinds of bulls on this
old earth today,
Just four kinds of bulls and no more,
l say.
Not the Holstein and Guernsey; to
count bulls breed
Is to narrow yourself as you would to
creed;
Not a little and big for in Bossie's
Her value grows out of the milk in
the pan;
Not the colored and white, for it's
known in all chimes
That skin-deep are colors and pass
with the times.
No, the four kinds of bulls on this
earth that l mean
Are bulls that are bulls, and are not !;
I'll explain.
The first is the scrub bull promiscu-
ously bred,
The bull that were always best knock
ed on the head.
The next is the grade bull, half bad
and half good,
And the bad is enough to corrupt his
good blood.
The third is poor pure bred, of merit
but slight
Just pure bred scrub, if you named
him Alright.
The best kind of bull, now bark what
I tell
Is bred for production and appearance
as well.
AS workmen are known by the tools
at their side,
SO farmers take rank by the bulls
they provide.
In which class are you? Are you tied
to scrub
That is fit for naught else but an old
sausage tub?
Are you using grade in the foolish
belief,
That halfway is getting you some
where, in brief?
Is your bull called pure-bred yet
with nothing to show,
That his ancestors knew how to rake
in the dough?
Is your herd bull bull of the very
best brand
Who lifts you the mortgage he finds
on your land?
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1919-06-18
HENRY FORD'S WEEKLY.

Paying good wages is not charity
at all-it is the best kind of business.
business whose benefits come to
a halt in the company's Office is not
healthy business. The benefit has got
to circulate SO that every man who
had part in creating and running it
has also part in enjoying it. 1t is
simple fairness.
If it is right for the manager of
business to try to make it pay larger
dividends, it is just as right that he
should try to make it pay higher
wages. For wages are the chief divi-
dend-on the money side at least
and more people are dependent on
them.
To hear some men talk you would
think that the returning soldier would
double our dependent population. He
is bringing up the reserve force that
will put the country over the top.
The very best charity we know
anything about is to help a man to
the place where he will never need it.
1t is the people thinking together,
and planning together, and acting to-
gether, that makes the great advances
possible.
1t is not the men who are doing the
talking who are solving our prob
lens, but the men who are at work.
When they talk, they know what it
is about.
The man who does better and more
productive work today than he did
yesterday is a. social reformer of the
highest type. He is doing something
genuine. He is squaring his own ac-
count with the world, and helping
others to square theirs.
And after work, the next duty is to
think. Nobody can think straight
who does not work. Idleness warps
the mind. 1t is wonder we do not
hear more about that fact-that the
practiced hand gives balance to the
brain.
The genius walks into his success.
The rest of us must work for ours.
The most dangerous notion young
man can acquire is that there is no
more room for originality. There is
no large room for anything else.
Money for moneys sake is a per-
fectly stupid motto. Money would be
as useless as heap of brass checks
if it were not used for development.
So that it is true that money itself is
not the whole of success.
The day is coming when goodwill
shall be the most valuable asset a
man can have.
Men are not divided by the kind of
work they do, but by the kind of men
they are.
Half the disharmony in human re-
lations today is founded on assump-
ton, guesses, misinformation.

KNEE-DEEP IN JUNE.

Sprawl out len'thways on the grass.
Where the shadders thick and soft
AS the kivvers on the bed
Mother fixes in the loft
Allus, when they's company!
Watch the swallers skootin' past
Bout as peert as you could asst;
Err the Bobwhite raise and whiz
Where some others whistle is.
Ketch shadder down below,
And look up to find the crow;
Err hawk away up there,
'Pearantly frozen in the air!
Hear the old hen squawk and squat,
Over every chick she's got,
Suddenly like!-And she knows where
That air hawk is, we'll as you.
You jes' bet your life she do!

My opinions second class;
Ylt you'll hear 'em more or less;
Sapsuck gittin' down to biz,
Weedin' out the lonesomeness;

In them baseball clothes o. his,
Sportin' round the ordchard ies'
Like he owned the premises!

But. fiat on yer back, l guess
In the shades where glory is!
That's jes' what I'd like to do

Under some old apple tree,

Brash fer me! And May jes'

With wild honey! Rench my hair
In the dew! and hold my coat!

no matter what they do;
Don't ridicule the masses, or malign
the chosen few;
Don't think yourself censor of the
silly human flock
And just remember as you go, that
any chump can knock.
Don't laugh at those who make mis-
takes, or stumble by the way,
For you are apt to follow them-and
almost any day.
Don't think the others shifting sand
while you are solid rock
And don't forget, for heavens sake,
that any chump can knock.
Don't be puller-down of fame on
other men conferred;
Don't give parting kick to one who
fell because he erred,
Don't think that you are perfect and
the only one in stock
And now, once more, just bear in mind
that any chump can knock!
