Jinjur glared at the insect fiercely.

her mother, where she belongs?"
asked Jack Pumpkinhead.
JinJur frowned.
'Why don't you shut her up in a
closet until she behaves herself, and
promises to be good?" enquired Tip.
Jinjur's lip curled scornfully.
''Or give her good licking!" added
the Saw Horse.
NO" said the Tin Woodman, 1--WE

At this Queen Jinjur laughed aloud,
and the next minute clapped her
pretty hands together thrice, as If for
a signal.
You are very absurd creatures"
said she; but am tired Of your nom
sense and have no time to bother with
you longer"
While the monarch and his friends
listened in amazement to this impudent
speech, a startling thing happened.
The Tin Woodman's axe was snatched
from his grasp by some person behind
him, and he found himself disarmed
and helpless. At the same instant a
shout of laughter rang in the ears of
the devoted band, and turning to see
whence this came they found them
selves surrounded by the Army of Re-
volt, the girls bearing in either hand
their glistening knitting needles. The
entire throne room seemed to be
filled with the rebels, and the Scare
crow and his comrades realized that
they were prisoners.

pose a woman's wit" said Jinjur,

THINGS THAT BRING HAPPINESS

Much of the happiness owing to US

but which we are perfectly sure exists

Sympathy brings happiness back to

service to somebody else.

MAKING OUR POSITION PLAIN

There is no person of common in
telligence in the city of Brunswick
who has ever questioned the integrity
or the character of the city council
or the individual members of tina.
body. They have given freely OF
their time and of their ability to the
good the city and the criticism of
lack of business sagacity on the par.
of some of the members is the only
one we have ever heard placed at Their
door.
In an editorial in these columns
yesterday morning, some citizens
either for meanness or joke has seen
fit to construe a paragraph into a
personal reflection on the integrity
of the council and we hasten here
and now to correct any such impress
sion. We are trying very hard TO
write plain English these days; 10
call things by the proper names ana
We do not see how any unbiased
mind could place any wrong con-
struction on what we wrote on the
Mutual Light and Waer company stu
aticn yesterday morning, However,
that seems to have been done in GER
tain quarters either for the purpose of
making mischief or sowing seeds Oh
discomfort, Now in order to m.ke
ourselves perfectly clear, We want to
lay emNhatically that we have per
feet faith in the integrity and high
character of the city council as Il
whole. We do not think it IS the
strongest body that could be placed
in charge of a progressive city but
we have never for mement question:
ed their good intentions or their
character.
What We wanted to say yesterday
is that the Mutual Light & Water
company has strangle-hold OF. the
city, as it has on the citizens anG
that each of these entities are hep
less in the hands of this monster oc-
topus that is literally sucking the life
blood out of our city and citizens
alike
The present city council is not re-
i1Cnsible for the situation: it. did
not make the contract that put thu,
and responsibility cannot be charged
to it,
Finally We want to say in justice
to the city council, ourselves and
those who are prone to criticize us
.hese days that we are "going 10
write it straight" as Shakespeare
once remarked fer t'its in our heac
and in our heart'-and there will De
scant reason for any honest man 20
misconstrue what we are saying in
the future.
That's all and this is written in
justice to Mayor Hopkins and the
members of council.

GRASSHOPPERS NEXT SEASON
Killing by Poisoning and Flowing Are
Most Effective Ways Of Guard
ing 1920 Crop.

Each female grasshopper lays from
80 to 100 eggs, in clusters of 40 to SO
in small holes about 11s inches below
the surface of the ground. Mr.. Stew.
art Lockwood, entomologist for the
North Dakota Agricultural college,
says that if these eggs are allowed to
hatch next years crops are in serious
danger. He states that killing by poi.
soning and blowing are the two most
effective ways of safeguarding the 1926
crop. This year it was found that
very few if any grasshoppers Matched
out on plowed land. Sixty per cent of
the hoppers came from roadsidesl
fence rows, flax stubble land, and 40
per cent from land that was stumbled
into crop the fall of 1918.

forced bargain with Russia at the
Brest-Litovsk treaty. (2) Russia Is
surely not able to take a fully respon-

States has not the same interests, be-
cause her citizens have since sold their
estates to Norwegians; Holland has
only early historical interests, France

interests, and Britain, Norway and
Sweden remain the three specially in

Which of these three countries Is
able to look justly after the rights of
its own subjects, as well as those of
the other two nationalities who have

reasons, I most emphatlcally empha-

should be asked by the world powers

its rights not only as heir to the Brit
