"Bite off more than you can chew
Then chew it,
Tackle more than you can do
Then do it.
Hitch your wagon to a star,
Keep your seat, and there you are"
Harry d. Schall and family himself
and two daughters, Misses Dorothy and
Margaret, have all been down with in
cred.
The ]. f. Pennell family have all
been down with influenza, but all are
now improved, some completely recOv-
cred.
How perfectly natural for some peo-
pie to threaten everything they look at
with lawsuit. Funny, isn't it? Or
would be if it were not so ridiculOusly
ludicrOuS.
Lawsuit threats will do everything
except stop two-family houses, and 9th
striction demands. But they will not
stop apologies for violations.
You may say for me-" said Pail
sadian this week, that the Board of
Education is probably largely RESPONSE
BILE for the defeat of the high school
building. They have not made the
public warm up to them the right way.
They have antagOnized certain people,
and that's the answer, in my opinion.
No public servants have any moral
right to be arbitrary. But the hardest
thing in the world is to make them say
they have ever been So"
Dorothy Schall, who was quite i'll
last week, is now convalescent and able
to be out again.
Marion Phillips has been really quite
ill, but is now getting well fast
C. l. Phillips is up and out again
after a slight attack of the flu

shot across the sky bit south of east,
starting some 20 degrees high, and
shooting at about a. degrees towards
the earth to the left.

A Crystal Forest.
The r in on top of the snow last
Saturda, followed by drizzling rain
in the ate afternoon and evening,
turned the entire Palisades section
into perfect forests of crystal trees
and shrubbery. Hundreds of photo
graphs were made by almost every one
having a camera, difficult pictures to
get, but everybody tries them. The
scene in the afternoon of Sunday was
indescribably beautiful. The sun
had come out and was shining bril-
liantly, giving all nature a crystal
beauty seldom seen. Looked at in the
direction the picture was one of daz-
zling splendor. The formation re-
manned over until Tuesday.
Marion Phillips, who has been i'll
with something like the influenza, is
now greatly improved, and will be out
in a day or two.
Thomas Fredericks has been i'll for
some days with a severe case of ton
silitis.

mining will not mix.
