Aunt Mary went to the NJ. B. reunion
And left her John behind;
I want to know of the sisters all
II they think such treatmen, kindg
Never once did she deigu to write him
To accompany her up there,
But he sent his love to dear Aunt Nadge
Which was risky, d. declare,
But her John wasn't there when the message
was given,
And Aunt Madge Of course wouldn't tell;
So everything went swimningly on
As sweet as aR-evening bell
Aunt Madge the compliment would return,
But just how she couldn't see;
Bat at last she hit the nail on the head:
"a lasses doughnut shall it be-
And SO the doughnut was sent him, all
twisted
And fried to delicate brown;
Was it goodg you ask, guess IL was,
Nothing like il in all the town.
Aunt zida isn't in it, say, at ali,
Imean her douRhnuts rare;
Now Aunt Susan keep your temper
Don't begin to rave and tear.
Perhaps eughtn't to have spoken so plain
OF the matter I am treating,
And should have waited to see for myself
"For the proof of the pudding is in eating"
Aud il Aunt zida's mad. Just as mad as can
be,
III tell her what she can do;
Just send me a doughnut, real hand made,
And / viii sample that too.
don't think her Johnny II care bit,
(He1i say, Billy's all right
And memories OF school days n be revived
And the spelling schools, at night.
Now II my rhymes are received and printed,
member I'll be. most dear.
And whether I'm invited or not,
Can attend the reunion next year.

AN AUTOMATIC GATE NEEDED

Those who have had much to do
around the Wa-Keeney depot at the
time the passenger trains come
through have repeatedly witnessed
hair-breadth escapes by people in
automobiles who have crossed the
track just ahead of the trains They
have concluded that some of these
narrow escapes have been the result
of carelessness on the, part of the
drivers of the automobiles but they
have also concluded that for the
safety of the general public gates
which will automatically close when
a train is approaching, should be p1ac-
ed a such crossings on either side of
the depot. The accident which occurred
at the crossing on Franklin street re-
Gently emphacizes the necessity of
such a gate. With the box cars and
elevators so near the crossing it is
impossible to see an approaching
train when in an auto coming from
the south, until one is almost upon
the track. 1t is then too late to stop
if the automobile is travelling at a
greater speed than that of ten miles
per hour. Recognizing that these
crossings are dangerous to the public,
the railroad company has erected an
| electric bell at the east crossing and
as a rule it is in working order How
ever, it is claimed that unless the per
son driving the car is particularly
Thoughtful regarding the bell, he can
not hear it. Especially is this bell
confusing when there is a train on
! the west of the depot and another APP
| preaching from the east at the same
time There is but one way to make
these crossings safe and that way is
/ G. IL. -
| take the place of the electric bell
Those who willful1y take the chances
do not need protection but the safety
of those who would show better judg-
ment if given the chance should be
| taken into consideration. The railroad
! company should be asked to put in
| these gates.

draw a warrant for Wallace's August
allowance and submitted aftidavits to
the effect that when Wallace inquired
about his salary he was informed by
the state auditor that money might be
available the following day. Instead
