zens' Association at a meeting in the
Brookland Masonic Temple last night.
1--WE are here to give service" de-
clared Commissioner Hendrick. I'VE
want you to bring your troubles to
US. But We also would like to have
citizens bring remedies for the trou-
bles in all possible cases. You know
the detailed needs of your community
better than one living outside, of it.
You know what needs correction and
how to correct it.
There is one thing which l wish
citizens would bear in mind, however,
and that is that the District govern
ment is not able to fill every request
presented to it. We are limited. Our
estimates cannot exceed double the
sum of our tax collections. Therefore
We must distribute improvements and
repairs throughout the city in as
equitable a manner as possible. and
when we find that one community
stands in greater need than another.
it is no more than fair that we turn
our attention to the former"
President E. w. Turner presented to
the Commissioner bouquet OF
dahlias as a mark of appreciation by
the community at the early visit of

The Fat Sufferer

The fat man sickens and like
the dickens his tortured system
feels; he has the CHAMBERS and
yaller: janders and govt in both
his heels. When convalescent,
his woes senescent, he'd like to
tell the tale of ailments gaudy
that racked his body, and make
his hearers pale He'd fain be
spelling his blood-congealing
pain epic by the week; but none
will listen, no teardrops glisten
on sympathetic cheek. And
when he pauses, for any causes,
he hears some horse laugh
sounds; his yarn seems yellow,
for he's a fellow who weighs
two hundred pounds. He may
have verses from docs and
nurses to prove diseases three;
it doesn't matter-the man is
fatter than sick folk ought to
be. We grin and shipper when
he would whimper his doleful
sickbed tunes: we mark his fig
ure and snort aud Singer and
say he's full of prunes. If he
were slender, with pity tender
we'd mix our tears with his:
we'd hear him twitter of ordeals
bitter. and sigh, and say Gee
whiz!" But he is fatter than
any halter or plumber in the
town; so when he'd babble and
idly gable, we promptly turn
him down. WALT MASON.

KNOP SALE TOTALS

The Fred Knop sale of Duroc Jersey
bred SOWs and gifts, held at Charter
Oak last Tuesday, February 10th, drew
some $50 people into the pavilion, and
thfrty.two head Of animals were sold.
The thirtytwo head brought the round
price Of 1920. and the top price paid
was $4,000. Buyers were present from
Danbury and points in South Dakota.
John Tompson, of Merrill, was the man
on the block, and he was ably assisted
by VIM. Henry and brother, of Ute. The
sale was held inSthe Mike Cops pavil-
ion, and the arrangement of the sales
ring and yards was very satisfactory.
Before starting the sale Mr.. Knop dis
tributed dinner tickets to everybody
present, and a fine dinner was served
by the ladies' of the Presbyterian church
ina vacant building on Main street.
The dinner was ample and of the best,
and the ladies are to be congratulated.

He has extreme length, large bone,

boar Mr.. Knop purchased last fall. This
animal, Iowa Cherry King, Jr., was not
