Ripping RHYMES
A Good World.
Telepho ne 400
BY WALT MASON


Every day Misfortune's handing
ANS of soup and chunks Of ice:
all our troubles Notwithstanding,
this old word is worth the price.
Every one is cutting capers in a
most obnoxious style; when l read
the daily papers / can scarcely
spring q smile. For they're full
OF tales of Staying. and Of dying
mems lamentS; bandits through
the streets are stray ng. shooting
up and robbing gents. Industry
Is shot to pieces, anarchy IS large
ly billed. bonds are stolen from
va'ises, and bank messengers are
killed. Grief around US boils and
thickens, till 1t borders on despair;
things are going to the dickens. II
they're not already there. Then
I raise q sigh and heave 1t, and this
world l roundly curse-but I'd
hate like heck to leave It, for the
other hight be worse. We, the
people, have the willies, but the
world Is not to blame; it's a place
OF light and lilies and enjoys q
well earned fame. 1t would be the
best old planet in the solar right
of way, If the delegates who man
1t would cool down for half a
day. When hot air we cease to
peddle, and get down TO saving
wood, this old world will wear a
medal-there IS fothing "just Nc
good"

THE stars incline, but do not COM
| pei"
Astrologers read this as an unim-
portant day in planetary direction
| but the signs are promising. Venus
| and Jupiter are both in benefc as
pect.
There Is prospect of large business
enterprises or national organizations
in which women are the sole mana
gers, the seers declare, and one OF
these will accomplish great things in
the business and professional field.
Venus is in a place believed to
| f~oreshadow great increase In the
number of young married women
who work outside the home in clerk
ships or learned vocations.
In this new yea the relation OF
women to the commercial world Will
be a subject Of widespread discussion
and will arouse anxiety about the
future Of the children OF this class
in America
Again changes in domestic customs
tina will o%verturn old traditions are
/ prognosticated. Many communistic
experim ents seem to be indicated.
This rule should be an suspicious
one for all who deal in women's
| luxuries. but a reaction against cos
! metics will be apparent among fash
ionable girls.
Again the seers prophesy that the
pendulum will swing back to the
standards Of other lays when modes
ty in dress and demeanor were de-
manded.
Jupiter offers high hopes to law
yers, Great honors will come to a
Judge.
Warning Is given that gambling
will greatly decrease n speculation
will be prevalent,
California Is subject to q planetary
government that is most advantag-
eous. Manufacturing interests will
multiply and many great enterprises
will be established. IL the stars are to
be trusted.
The whole western coast should
benefit from the aspects that will
rule In the next few months.
Persons whose ~birthdate II is may
have a year in which anxieties men
ace. but there will be success and
good luck.
Children born on this day are like
iy to be generous and witty, but
these subjects of Aquarius are likely
to be strong-willed and inclined te
arrogance.

Somehow or other you never heal
Of a man applying for a divorce on
the ground that his wife is a good
cook. And you never lear of a
woman applying for a d.vorce on the
ground that her husband gives her
too much money.
Ever when she is announcing that
a well-built girl looks Immodest, q
fat-chested girl will keep right on
spending two bucks per week for
Developer.
The man who can't make 20 bucks
a week at what he is doing always
knows hat he would be a world
beater IL he had the Other Fellows
job.
What fine children there would be
in this world il the Neighbors raised
your children the way they think
your children should be raised, and
you raised the Neighbors' children
the way you think the Neighbors'
children should be raised.
And what has become of the o. f.
man who wanted to kiss the Bar
tender before he went home?
We do not know much. But we do
know that there is always one car
fridge left in the gun that is sup
posed to be empty.
Why is it that a mar can't sit be-
a good looking girl for five min
utes without resting his arm or the
back of the chair she Is occupying?
The o. f. woman who had a pet
brand of -four now has a daughter
who has a pet bakery that charges
her 10 cents for a fve-cent loaf Of
bread.
A henpecked husband crows as
loudly as anybody when he is away
from home.
The reason why q thin girl does
not mind having her collar bone stick
out three inches is because she knows
that her ankles are not fat.
Ask any married woma n you
will learn tina the Ideal Husband
lives further up the street.

Chas. Northrup, living on the old

hydrophobia a few days ago and was
killed Monday night.
The dog had been acting strangely
and as none Of the family had ever
seen mad dog before they did not at
once recognize what the trouble was
but the dog was watched closely and
kept away from the stock. However.
on Sunday pig on the farm died. II
was not believed that the dog had bit
ten the pig and the pig did not show
any symptoms of having been bitten.
Monday evening the dogs condition
was recognized to be hydrophobia and
he was killed.
The matter was reported Tuesday
to the health officers SO that all pre-
c3utions might be taken to guard
against others that might develop the
trouble.

PRO AND CON OF
80 MILLION BOND
REFERENDUM
CARLNON BILL Is DISCUS SED
BEFORE MEETING OF ASSO-
GATED ENGINEERS IN SPO-
KANE, RECENTLY.

In the recent discussion of the Carl
yon $50 100000 State bond referen-
dunn for paving state roads. before
the Associated engineers Of Spokane.
Charles l.. Mackenzie, ColfaX banker,
supported the measure and Frank W
Guilbelt, President of the Eastern
Washington Highways Association,
presented the objections Mr. Mac
konzie confined his arguments for the
bin largely to statistics showing the
saving to be gained by good roads
building in general and in a defense Of
section two Of the bill known as the
Cement Trust" section. which stipu-
Iates that all paving from the pro-
cocds Of the act, if the voters of the
state endorse it at the November
election shall be of cement concrete
or a surfacng material laid upon a
cement concrete base
Mr. Guilbclt offered as a substitute
the "pay-as- We-go" plan, which he
showed would build Just as much
paved road in ten years from the re
turns from automobile license fees as
the S30000,000 bonds would build in
six year period He said he would

building program of the State appre-
Gladly. He did not believe in placing
$30000,000 debt upon the State to
gain but three or four years time.
and this for only a partial program
He further stated the proposed bill
would tie up the automobile license
fees for a tWenty-year period which,
if applied upon road construction.
would yield by the "pay-as-we- go
plan $6O000.0O0 worth Of roads as
against but half that amount under
the bonding plan. There was no as
surance Mr. Guilbert said, that the
automobile license law would be in
existence for moro than two years
and yet the State would be obligated.
if the referendum passed, to carry the
$30,000O00 debt which would mean

the equivalent of a 2la mill levy on
all the assessed valuation of the
State. He also stated the bill called
for the paving of more than 100
miles of road, but that no more than
1000 miles could be constructed from
the revenues from the bonds. and
asked what part of the State would be
obliged to wait until another bond
issue could be passed before their
paving could be done.
In rebuttal Mr.. Mackenzie said the
reads would be completed by the APP
plication of the Federal funds for post
roads taken together with the bond
money He also said that cement con-
crete roads Is feet wide should be
constructed for $4,000 mile, or
$4,000 a mile less than the prevail
ing prices. and at a good profit to
the contractor.
Mr.. Guilbert answered that the ap-
plication of Federal money would
have no bearing on the final result as
these funds would be available as
we'll under the yearly plan. He also
argued that these funds were being
unfairly applied now and they should
be available to all important TONNAGE
roads as the Federal law intends He
offered to take stock in corporation
which could build satisfactory cement
concrete roads at $4,000 a mile at Il
profit at prevailing prices of labor
and materials.
In his opening remarks Mr.. Guilbert
stated this was the first time he had
ever opposed any means of financing
road building, but that the proposed
referendum seemed to him to be such
a weak financial plan he felt obligat-
ed to point out what he considered TO
be the many faults of the Carlyon
bill

No sooner in the gun be blew
Than off this mortal sphere he flew
And met the girl in yonder scene
Who lit the fire with kerosene.
And there he saw in vengeance dire

Beside a man who whipped his wife.
Take warning each, take warning all
For retribution sure will fall
On him who does careless deed
Or wrongs another without heed.

REALIZE VALUE OF GARDENS
British Housing Authorities Forbid
Erection OF Dwellings without
Suitable Breathing Spota

The new methods OF land develop
ment In Great Britain now adopted
by local authorities mark q clean
breakaway from the "jerry planning
methods Of the past. Instead Of crowd.
Ing from thirty to forty houses per
acre In closely packed streets. local
authorities acting under the guidance
Of tho ministry Of health. are adopting
the standard that In urban areas not
more than twelve houses. aud In rural
areas not more than eight houses,
should be built per acre: As benef-
icent result Of the adoption Of these
new standards the large garden is to
be henceforward fundamental fea-
ture of every newly built home.
The distance between houses on OPP
p0site sides Of a street Is not less
than seventy feet, thereby making
broad park line road. Under the new
method the cost per house Of garden
suburb roads on an estate with twelve
houses per acre and with frontage
Of twenty-five feet per house Is less
than under the old method with tWen-
ty houses to the acre and only 17-f0Ot
frontages to the houses.
This Is the opening out Of a new
period Of English town and village
development. Under q clause added
to the housing and town planning
act in the committee Of the house of
commons every urban local authority
with upwards Of twenty thousand pop
uatlon. must between 1923 and 1925
prepare a town-planning scheme. and
under the clause the exercise of town
planning care will become general.
