That Jules Verne stuff we once
read when a boy is punk stuff today.
What, with the recent flights across
the Atlantic, the passage of the sub
marines around the earth, nearly so
at least or is possible, Jules is losing
out by the ton these days. All of
his impossible stunts of the then,
have been duplicated or else beaten
to a standstill. One trip of Jules
yet remains to be done and our boys
are going to tackle that in the morn

Creatures That Weep.

Among the creatures that weep most
easily are the ruminants. All hunters
know that the stag weeps, and 1t Is
asserted that the bear sheds tears
when severely wounded. The giraffe
is not less sensitive and regards with
fearful eyes the hunter who has
wounded 1t.

Abuse, innuendo, lies, slush and
bunk are arguments of fools and
cowardly imbeciles who who have
neither the brains to write a gram

argument, says the Dassel Dispatch.

Some time that will be ancient his
tory to us or our posterity as is now
the story of the Wright Brothers at
Kill Devil Hill when the first heavier
than air machine took to the air and
got off the ground. One can almost
lay safe wager on anything dis
ordered mind could conjure up that
it can and will be done. Perpetual
motion is going to come out of its
hiding of the centuries and be given
to the kids to play with. Make any
daring assertion and you dare not
lay odds against it that it will not be
accomplished. Think what HAS
been done, in the last fifty years and
then-well, you'll know that it CAN
be done. 1t is great age this and
it has just begun. If t wire only
possible, we should like to come back
to old Mother Earth after another
century say and see what our boys
have been doing while we were gone.
