Immediately following the trans
fer of the Geo. E.. McClelland

to the new interests, and his res

Funny Things Are Apt
to Happen In Kansas

A lot of funny things have come
out of Emporia. Also lot of
funny things remain there to hap
pen as witness the following, con-
tributed by Orson Angel of the
College of Emporia:
-Four high school girls of Co.
lumbus, Kan. went in cahoots and
bought a turkey for Christmas
dinner. None of the girls had the
nerve to chop off the birds head
SO they chloroformed it, although
the turkey nearly wrecked the
premises before he quit Topping.
Then the girls dry picked the COB
bier and put the carcass in the
clothes closet to remain until ready
to be dressed and roasted. A few
hours later one of the girls went
to the closet to get some article OF
apparel. and when she opened the
door, the turkey (having recovered
from the insufficient anesthetic)
calmly walked out without stitch

The city council has been at a
loss to know what is best to do
regarding a city dumping ground
for refuse. After considerable
discussion at Thursday evenings
meeting it was decided to continue
the dumping ground east OF the
city, but to send a man down there
occasionally to keep the place in
better condition and to catch those
offenders who insist on dumping
in the handiest spot regardless OF
where it is. 1t will be necessary
to reconstruct small orldge
across the aume, to replace one
burned out recently when burning

Silver Dollars To
Become CuriOSitieS

Have you noticed the large
number of paper dollars in circu-
lation lately? The national gov
eminent has notified the banks
that no more silver dollars can be
had unless silver certificates are
rendered in exchange. Silver
dollars cannot be bought with
gold.
This condition. a confession of
the real scarcity of silver. will
result in a sure revival of silver
mining in Colorado.
Just as soon as the public rea-
Lies that they can't get silver they
will begin demanding it. Silver
dollars will became SO scarce that
when a stray one comes your way
YOU will take good look at it,
test the ring to see if it's genuine
and say "Just like the old bones
we used to get" Il guess Pll salt
this fellow down. Then that will
be another 'old bone" out of cir
culation.
1t will take many years for the
government to replace the silver
dollars in the treasury melted into
bullion under the Pittman act
during the war in an attempt to
keep the price of the white metal
down to one dollar an ounce.

A Sure Sign of Sanity

From New York City comes
story that shows the intelligence
of the men who make up the juries
in that great Metropolis. The
question before the court was
whether or not a certain woman
was of sound mind when she exc
cuted her will. Those relatives
who were trying to have her ad-
judged insane SO that they could
break the will, testified that when
ever President Wilson's name was
mentioned she worked herself into
a rage arraigning Mr.. Wilson and
his whole Administration. The
jury brought in prompt verdict
that she was sound in mind and
that the will was O. K.

As a precaution against an cpl
demic of huor other disease Mayor
Moscript ordered a barrel of car
bolic acid solution to be sprinkled
over the city streets. This was
one of the precautions taken last
year and may have been one of
the reasons why Idaho Springs
Jared better than other places
while the epidemic was raging.
1t is Mayor Moscript's idea to
keep the city in clean, sanitary
condition and combat the epidemic
before it gets good start here.
