to the last. He was shot with a
SO Smith & Wesson revolver at a
distance of about $50 feet, which

reminds me of the discourteous
lhsrty some people of my acqaaint.
suce are taking with the rights of
others.
There may be circumstances and
conditions under which some
people may feel justified in mo-
nopolizing the rights of public
property, but under no circum.
stances should they feel full
justified in appropriating the in.
dividual rights Of others even tho
they feel themselves welcome. The
spirit Of the Golden Rule should
prompt each and every one to
grant the same courteous privileg-
es as they are bound to feel are
due themselves and wish others
to render to them under the same
conditions.
The berry season will soon be

be construed as selfish protest.
We appreciate the courtesy shown
us by some and we are glad to
have been able to share the abun-
dant blessings we have with
others, bat we feel, regardless OF
whether the recipient who values
the privilege thinks we are due
and consideration or not, the OK.
