By demanding efficiency and economy from
public servants, furnishing them for their

be paid in taxes and so help solve some tax
problems. As long the politicians fool us

under the mounting burden of eXtravagant govern

something to say about the amount of your taxes.
Three weeks ago most of us thought we were just
republicans or democrats. We forgot all else in
the party enthusiasm stirred up. Today we realize
that for 364 days each year over-burdened
taxpayers being imposed upon simply by those

Mr. Longears looked at Jack
Jumper, and the big rabbit blink
ed one eye, as much as to say:
Leave him to me! I'll fix him!"
Then Jack Jumper put the warm
apple dumping down on a flat
stump, first brushing away the
snow, and said: Before you can
have this dumping, Mr.. Woozie
Wolf, you must race me for it.
Whoever wins the race will get

JUST A BOY.
, Edgar A. Guest.

Got to understand the lad
He's not eager to be bad,
If the right he always knew,
He would be as old as you.
Were he now exceeding wise,
He'd be just about your size;
When he does things that annoy.
Don't forget, he's just a boy
Could he know and understand,
He would need no guiding hand,
But he's young and hasn't learned,
How lfe's corners must be turned,
Doesn't know from day to day
There is more in life than play,
More to face than selfish joy
Don't forget, he's just a boy.
Being just boy he'll do
Much you will not want him to;
He'll be careless of his ways,
Have his disobedient days,
Wilful, wild and headstrong, too,
Just as, when a boy, were you;
Things of value he'll destroy,
But, reflect, he's just boy.
(.
Just a boy who needs a friend,
Patient, kindly to the end;
Needs a father who will show
Him the things he wants to know,
Take him with you when you walk,
Listen when he wants to talk,
His companionship enjoy.
Don't forget, he's just boy!

lips. But I'm much better run

are! Come on, We'll run over to
that Christmas tree and back.
Whoever wins will have the dump

"Goodw exclaimed Jack Jumper,
and again he blinked his eye at
Uncle Wiggily, as much as to say:
watch me fool HIM"
They got ready for the race.
"Onel Two! Three!" counted
Uncle Wiggily.
With leap and a bound the
Wolf and Jack Jumper started for
the distant Christmas tree. The
Wolf ran as fast as trolley car,
but Jack Jumper leaped ahead like
a jitney bus. Then the Wolf ran
as fast as a railroad train, but
the Jack Rabbit scudded along
like racing auto.
"Oh, I'll beat you yeti" howled
the Wolf, as he went as fast as a
bird can fly.

and laid his big ears out flat on
his back, so they wouldn't be in
the way, and then! My sakes alive!
How he did run!
Jack Jumper ran as fast as two
airships and part of a balloon,
and he reached the Christmas tree
before the Wolf was half way
there. And then, turning quickly,
Jack Jumper raced back, the wind
whistling between his ears, and he
hoped up alongside of Uncle Wig
gily, near the flat stump where
the apple dumping was taking a
little sleep.
"Come on. Uncle Wiggily!" cried
Jack Jumper. 1.-The next time
race I'm going to pick out some
body who knows a little about
running" Then Jumper found a
flat piece of ice that would do
for a sled.
He put Uncle Wiggily on this ice
sled, fastened a bit of wild grape
vine to it for a rope, and taking
the apple dumping in one paw,
Jack Jumper pulled Mr.. Longears
over the fields so fast that the
wind played regular tune ON
Uncle Wiggilys tall silk hat.
The Wolf was left far behind,
not being able to run one-tenth as
fast as Jack Jumper, and the big
rabbit ate the dumping and WASH
hungry any more. Then he drew
Mr.. Longears back to the hollow
stump bungalow where Nurse Jane
wrapped up another dumping for
Uncle Butter.
So everything was all right. And
il the poll parrot doesn't take the
string off the curtain to help the
gold fish make a cats cradle, I'll
tell you next about Uncle WISELY

Dear Sir:-In regard to Governor
Larrazolo's action in pardoning the
sixteen Villistas now in the state
penitentiary, wish to say that the
governor was wrong in asserting
that the United States government
was at war with Mexico.
The United States never declared
war on Mexico. The resolutions
recently passed by the American
legion and other organizations of
this city brand the pardon of the
sixteen men as an insult to every
soldier who ever wore a uniform in
organized warfare, and as especial
ly insulting to the American troops
who suffered untold hardships and
many Of whom laid down their
lives to protect the honor of the
country and of the Stars and
Stripes.
