WE SURRENDER THE GOAT

We confess our guilt in publish
ing stories of swine with cattle pro-
geny of prodigious proportions, sol
diers with very distinguished rela-
tives, Sunday school superintendents
with question marks, and other errors
both typographical and otherwise,
but we are forced to surrender all
claims to the championship in this
line to the Nebraska editor who
managed to mix together two inter-
esting news items in such a way as
to make them read like this:
"The Red Cross concert given last
night by sixteen of our beautiful
young ladies was highly appreciated.
They sang in charming manner,
winning the plaudits Of the audience,
who unanimously pronounced them
the finest group of Shorthorns in the
country. A few of them are rich
brown in color, but the majority are
spotted red and white. Several of the
heifers are fine-bodied, tight-limbed
animals, and promise to prove good
property"
The whereabouts Of the editor is
unknown at present.
