An Honest Man

Perhaps number of our read CTS will remember Mr. Peter Stauffer, who formerly resided short distance south of town. the following letter, which is self explanatory, was received a few days ago by D. B. Perkins. The incident referred to happened more than 25 years ago. and it is seldom one wants to make repa ration for mistake made after the lapse Of so many years. An honest confession is good for the soul. . Who's next?

 March 17th, 1919. Mr. D. E. Perkins:
 Dear friend, you will no doubt be surprised to get letter from me but 1t is this way, when I lived in Arkansas my neighber Halls hogs got into my sweet potatos and destroyed a lot of them and my son, Clinton shot one of them and l thought the hog might pay for the potatoes, but 1t kept hothering<me when I would think that he could not help it and 1 want to satisfy them so l thought if they are still living I would kindly ask you to see them about it and if shey think I ought to pay for it l will do so. The hog probably
The Carlisle independent., 1919-04-03
weighed 75 or 80 pounds.


 Now whatever they think ought to do I will, for I want to have a clear conscience. If you will attend to this I will be much obliged and am willing to pay you for your trouble.
 I We are having an open winter and lots of mud and the flu has been very bad. My youngest son lost a boy IA years old with it. Now I must tell you about Clinton. He is teaching Geology and Mineralogy in the Mlnneap- oils State University. He took one year off and he and wife and son, Robert spent part of the winter in California. His wife and boy are still there and he is in Texas working on the geologi- cal survey, locating oil wells. He has an interest in the oil business. Is Mir. Ellingsworth and Josie still living? I expect there is great change in that country since 1 left there.
 1 am well and hope you are. My eye sight is poor. as you can see by my writing. One eye is blind and the other very weak but 1 am thankful for the good health that l enjoy. 1 am 66 years old and l never had better health
 With respect,
 Peter Stauffer P. s. l don't want you to un- derstand ne that I used that i hog for it was not in shape to be eaten and since I have thought it over I don't think it weighed over 50 or 50 pounds. The fence was good and any one would have thought it would keep any kind of a hog out. It was made of 3 l boards 6 inches wide and barb ed wires above.

 The boy is one of the best edu cators in the land, and he as we'll as yourself will profit.
 There are dozens of fathers and sons in who are hardly ac quainted. What looks better than to see father and son who are chums in the true sense?
 Cultivate him. You'll find him the best pal yet.-Exchange.
The Carlisle independent., 1919-04-03
A Good Pal

Do you ever stop to consider the manner in which your boy employs his spare time? Do you sit and read or smoke or both and pay little or no attention to him until he does something of witch you disapprove, then scold him? Or Is he out of sight and out of mind,. following his own inclination in the quest of amusement? Perhaps he IS in the company of boys whose con duct is open to question; bows who swear and smoke and tell filthy stories. It should not and need not be so.
 Girls are naturally more in- clined to play the domestic games and to be in the company of the mother. But boys-are boys.
 It is characteristic of the boy to look up to his daddy; to admire hitn; to follow his exam ple and to initiate him. And nothing will please him more than for you. hls father, to con verse with him, not as with a lit tie boy but as little man.
 Consider this plan for some Saturday or Sunday afternoon. Invite him to join you in a walk. 1t matters little where you walk, that boy will find oodles of ques tions to ask and more than once you will find yourself stumped and unable to answer. And if you are unable to tell him the depth of the ocean," or why the sky is blue' or when and where the telephone was invent ed and by whom," don't evade the issue. Just confess to him you do not know, and make it your business to find out about it when yon get home. Then do it. You will find yourself bene fit ed as much as is the boy. You will .gain a wider and deeper knowledge on more than one subject.
 Talk with him. He thinks his daddy is It. So it's up to you to BE TT, as far as lies in your pow. CT Use the best English possi ble to your conversation and cor rect his faulty diction. Play with him. Throw stones at poles, and run even though Monday finds your unused muscles stiff and sore. It's worth the trial, and every time you groan with pain, you will have a corresponding thrill-a thrill for every twinge

SUMMARY

Associated Press Summary. The
question Of a barrier which the
Inter-Allied Peace Conference in
tends to erect 10 prevent the spread
Of Bolshevism into the Teutonic
countries was brought very sharply
TO the front at the meeting of the
conference held today as a result
Of the situation in Hungary.
The Bolsheviki element have
seized the power in Hungary and
have promptly declared war against
the Entente Allies.
Paris newspapers, commenting on
the situation, indicate thai the
peace conference may be compelled
TO take military action, and other
leading newspapers throughout the
country say that the situation is
very serious and urge military
action by the Allies.
1t is thought by some that Ger
many is behind the movement for
the purpose of defeating the work
Of the Peace Conference. &c..
The London papers also admit
that the situation is very grave and
think that the trouble was partly
caused by the delay in completing
the treaty Of peace.
