AS YOU MAKE 1T

To the preacher, life's sermon;
To the joker, it's a jest;
To the miser, life is money;
To the loafer, life is rest;
To the lawyer, life's a trial;
To the poet, life's song;
TO the doctor, life's a patient
Who needs treatment right along
To the teacher, life's a school;
Life's a good thing to the CRATER,
It's failure to the fool
To the man upon the engine,
Life's long and heavy grade;
lisa gamble to the gambler;
To the merchant, life is trade.
Life is but long vacation
To the man who loves his work;
Tife's an everlasting effort
To shun duty, to the shirk.
Life is what we try to make it..
Brother, what is life to you?
The Craftsman.

1t is often stated that the colorcd
population are apt imitators of the
conduct of the white people and some
times they carry their imitation to
rather greater lengths than is to
the best interests of their race; as,
for instance when Matte Mitchell, a
colored citizen of Platter playfully
carved up her husband with butcher
knife a few days ago. Matte is out
on $1,000 bond and her spouse is bur-
led. Evidently Matte had been read
ing the daily papers.

The news stories of excessive un-
employment in various cities which
are now appearing in many papers
are probably, in part at least. pro-
paganda. 1t will be noticed that the
stories published always refer to some
other city than the one in which they
are published and that the local news
columns of the paper Of the cities
from which the stories are sent make
no note of such conditions. The
country is in fairly good shape in
dustriously, and the knocking is being
done largely with mercenary motives.

A NEW VARIATION
TO AN OLD GAME

The great American game of run
ming over pedestrians with an auto
mobile received a new twist at Wichi-
Ia Falls. Texas, Monday when the
driver of black Hudson super-six
struck and killed Archie Martin, IA
years old, at noontime at the corner
of Tenth and Scott streets. Young
Martin was struck while crossing the
street by the car, which was going
at an estimated speed of fifty miles
an hour He was sent to the Wichi-
tn General Hospital, but never regain
ed consciousness and died two hours
later.
The driver of the car never slack
ened his speed after hitting Martin,
but instead put on more power and
headed in the general direction Of
Henrietta. The man was under ar
rest at the time and was being es-
corted to the police station by a
motorcycle policeman. Just before
nearing the crossing of Tenth and
Scott street the driver speeded up
and knocked Martin twenty feet into
the air. As the boys body alighted
it fell across the bumper of the car
and was knocked in front of the
wheels about 100 feet from the spot
where he was hit first. He suffred
a fracture of the skull broken
bones in nearly every portion of the
body and was almost beyond recog-
milton when picked up.
The motorcycle policeman who
was escorting the driver gave chase
but was forced to give it up just
outside the city limits, when his ma
chine went bad. A valunteer posse
took up the chase from there but at
late hour Monday night he had not
been apprehended.
Later reports states that the man.
a. Mexican. had been arrested and
token to Fort Worth to escape ulob
violence.

While on the way to church in
Oak Cliff, Texas last Sunday an auto
ran over a man and his wife who
were on their way to church. The
wife is not expected to live. Perhaps
this should be taken as warning
not to 90 to church unless you can
60 in an auto and do the running
over pedestrians yourself.
