The Only Way

If you toot your little tooter
And then lay away your horn,
Within a week there's not a soul
Will know that you were born.
The man who tries to advertise
By short and sudden jerks,
Is the man who's always kicking
Because it never works.
The fellow who is on the job
A-humpin' every day,
And keeps forever at it,
He's the one who makes it pay
More Pep.

DESIRE TO SEE WRECK
 NEARLY CAUSES DEATH

UKAIH, Cal, July & A desire to see a train wreck is reported to have led two 12-year old boys of Fort Bragg to wrap logging chain around the inside rail of the railroad track, one mile from Fort Bragg, Cal, in the endeavor to ditch the eastbound pas senger train. The engine and three coaches passed over the obstruction safely. Had the chain been wound around the outside rail, the train, fill ed with women and children bound for a picnic on Pudding Creek, would have been dashed into the creek many feet below. The boys confessed that their desire to wreck the train was inspired from movie film.

PLAN CONCERT
 FOR THURSDAY

Principal among the weekly con- certs anticipated by the Harvey Hub bell band. for the month of August, is the one to be rendered on next Thurs day evening in honor of Industrial Bridgeport. because, it is the belief of Dr. G. F. Conterno, that music has no small part to play in restoring peace out of the present industrial chaos.
 This contention, Dr. Conterno as- serts. is founded upon actual expert ence: persons compelled to work for their daily bread, hear all too fre- quently of the vulgarities of life; they are ma1treated with materialisms, too much devotion is given to material nature and it's wants, befogging the minds of the people; what they need is diversion in an atmosphere em- bracing the ideal where their hungry souls can drink in the essence of the spiritual
 Ever mindful of these beliefs. Dr. Conterno, while making no radical departure from his customary pro- cedure in program construction, has devoted himself extensively to arrang- ing what can be truly termed a cos mopolitan program, embracing the operatic, secular, descriptive and pop u,ar numbers, for the festival next Thursday evening.
