More Truth Than Poetry
By James ]. Montague
A MISTAKE.

Getrufsky was Bolshevik
Who fancied he was treated bad,
And, in a passing mt OF pique.
Blew up a part Of Petrograd
His neighbors took it very well,
Said they: If we should make fuss,
Or seem offended. who can tell
But what the man will blow up US.
So. finding no one was annoyed
When palaces he tumbled down.
Or seemed to care if he destroyed
Such buildings as were left in town,
Getruffsky sailed across the sea
To devastate the u s.. a.
When blow Yankees up, said he
There's going to be the deuce to pay"
His operations he began
Behind a lonely alley wall
But just he had stuffed can
With tri-nitrate of toluol.
a big policeman hove in sight
And seized him by the head and hair,
And soon this Bolshevistic wight
Was bound for the electric chair.
And from the death cells cherries gloom
"a place that's neither bright nor nice)
Getruffsky wrote the folks at home
The following very good advice:
Dear Pa and Ma: I'm on my way.
m due to leave here Friday week
P. S.-fve found the u. S. A
Is no place Tor a Bolshevik.

of good strong advertising was TO
paint pictures OF feet on the walk

painted the feet so they would lead
toward his place of business, and
added this punchy line:-"FOllow

IDEAL WEATHER

United States Weather 0b- server Shows that Ju- neau Has Been Most

"The professional knocker and calamity howler," says Weather Ob. server Summers, "has to seek other fields than Juneau weather during the past two months to pursue his calling. Fortunately for him, the coal strike. and the performances of the Bolshevists and I. w. W.'s have -sufficed to keep him occupied, and the absence of his wailing and rail lngs on the weather has therefore not been so noticeable. The press dispatches from the states during the past month have contained numerous accounts of blizzards, extreme cold floods, and other strenuous weather phenomena. In the meantime the people of Juneau have been enjoying weather with just enough frigidity to give zest and exhilaration, and enough sunshine to give our snow clad mountain slopes a gorgeous set ting, and to give. our citizens

 With ten days with 100 per cent sunshine, according to the Weather Bureaus meteorological summary, and with 42 per cent of the possible amount of sunshine, the weather of the month of November was almost ideal. Although the mean telnpera ture of BOA degrees was 4.6 degrees below the average of 9 years. the lowest temperature of the month did not go below 14. This was in marked contrast to conditions in some parts of the states. where readings of 20 below zero were reported.
 While there was total of 9:93 inches of rain and melted snow, or an excess of 166 inches from the nor nal, over half of this total fell on three days. the 17th, 18th and goth, The snowfall of IS inches was just enough to give the landscape win ter setting without occasioning dis comfort, or hindrance to traffic.
