HOW funny is practical joke? As
a rule quite funny when it is on
some one else and not half so funny
as the rest of them think it is when
1t is on you. But even at that some
practical jokes fail in the end to amuse
those who perpetrate them.
What do you think of this one, that
happened in a nearby town?
1t was in the dead of winter, one of
those bitter winters prevalent a couple
OF years ago. The snow was heaped
high everywhere and then frozen almost
solid on top. poking n hand outside
to reach for the milk or the morning
paper was as much as many women
were doing. But school went on of
course just the same,
1t was a bunch of high school girls
who went to Mary G. and told her
about the surprise party that was to be
given for one of their number. 1t was
to be no end of Jolly affair and not
under any circumstance to be missed.
There was great deal Of whispered

your head with Il brown ribbon studded

BIG CROPS

Indications al . Heavy Harvest Prom.
iss Continuation Of Unusual De
mand for Automobiles

Reports from various sections OF
the country Indicate that the har-
vest this year viii be bigger and
better than ever. Wheat. farmers
say. never has looked better. and
corn In coming fine.
These reports forecast certain
definite things regarding the motor
car Industry" says A. II. Hawkin-
son Of the United Motors company.
In other years big harvest
has meant n biz demand for auto
mobiles. and the Same In likely 10
prove true this year. Not only
does prosperity for the farmers
mean an Increased demand for mo-
tor cars In the rural communities.
but this prosperity II translated
into many other sections Of the
country and the Increased demand
comes from all quarters.
This year has seen a big de-
nsand for motor cars. The end OF
the war. together with the universal
prosperity of the country. has given
many people the means and desire
to buy automobiles. Coupled with
this II the fact that production In
motor cars was retarded until art
er the armistice, so that the num-
Dor OF new cars built this year will
not equal that OF some other
years. That helps to heighten the
demand under the law OF supply
and demand. The smaller the sup
ply. tho greater the proportionate
demand. is tho way the rule works
out.
Next year. however. every motor
manufacturer win get In a fun IL
months Of manufacturing. But this
does not mean that there will be
sufficient cars to meet tho demand.
II the harvest turns out as FORE
castcd. II IN going to be- difficult,
believe. To build enough automo-
biles TO supply the orders.
Personally. do not believe in
holding off on tho purchase of a
car this season in the hopes Of
something better next year. do
not say this rs an automobile deal
err. but as an everyday citizen. II
has been my experience that people
who wait seldom get the oppor-
tunities that come to those who &,
out after them.
"Of course, II Is too far distant
to say what next year will bring
but I believe that II were buying
n car. I'd buy today and enjoy 1,

are two which are especially apt:

Don't talk TO other persons riding

The development work which. has been in progress all summer on the coal properties of the Boring River Coal Company and the oil lands of the Chilkat Oil Company at Katalla indicate that valuable coal and oil properties will result from further work according to George c. Hazelet of Cordova, who is inter- ested with Falcon Joslin and others in them. MT. Hazelet arrived in Jul neau on the Northwestern, and will be here a few days.
 Times and conditions are general. ly good at Cordova," said MT. Haze. let. We have had good year both in mining, mining development and in fishing"
 MT. Hazelett says the Boring Sea Coal Company has about 40 men at work at the present time on devel- oping their property. They have demonstrated that they have coal equal or superior to the Pocahontas coal of West Virginia, but will not know until early next summer whe ther or not they will build the 50 miles of railroad that will be neces sary to haul the coal if 1t is mined They will do that if convinced that the coal is sufficient in quantity anC under conditions to make 1t profitable to mine it. The indications, MT Hazelet says are very encouraging.
 The .Chilkat Oil Company has 3 dozen wells that are producing from two to 20 barrels of the finest para fms oil, which the are selling for To cal consumption. They stopped drill ing wells about a week ago, but will resume in the spring.
 There are a few men at work or the Clark Davis coal properties a; Katalla, said MT. Hazclet. The re ceiver heretofore appointed for this property was discharged some time ago, and MT. Davis is again in charge of it.
