The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1920-06-09

A fake concern in Detroit, Mich,
on letterheads as Farrell, Black 4
Co., stuck large number of poultry
and egg producers, by offering high
prices and making no returns. The
parties are wanted by the police, o.
E. Oetega, of Atlanta, Ca, who was
doing the same thing, is in Jail. II
don't pay to lite at offers for more
than market prices. There are plenty
of reliable dalers.

The outside delegates on Friday
were approximately five hundred. That
these were cared for both in sleeping
and dining comforts by the sh0me
folks" Of Warren is most creditable.
To them. goes no small amount Of apS
probation Of the capable way in which
the problem was managed. This
coupled with efficient administration
is responsible for its share Of the sue
cess attained by the convention. 5ss
During the week meetings of the
Public. Health Association and Of the
Red Cross were held at the court house.
It would not be treating the athletic
teams Of Crookston and Warren fairly
IL the hard-fought sportsman-like game
were not mentioned. Scarcely had the
game been well started when heavy
wind and rain storm came up from
| CrOokstOn' way. The boys on the
teams ana the audience were drenched
ere they could reach places Of shelter.
When 1T had somewhat abated, ]eay-
ing the field slippery and footing ilse-
cure, the teams returned to their game
in such high spirits as befit true sports,
men. At the end Of the first half the
score registered zero to zero. The game
continued down the, second half with
no change. Just before time. was called
Crookston, who held the ball decided
to sskick goal'' The move was a sue:
cess and the score was three to zero in
favor of Crookston. s- Cd. s5..=

Ouiijia

Some reverend wight had it the other week that to the ouija board was attributable an increasing psy- copathic wave that is sweeping our land. This and similar attacks by de- tractors has had the effect, naturally, of increasing the ouijadicts, until we may soon expect to see the little board take it's place along with the checker board and the ironing board as an essential part of every household equipment Already it has become more popluar than the cradle and the sewing machine, and it begins to look as though nothing short of an amend ment to the constitution could banish it from national life. Even prohibi- tion would not be wholly effective, as ouija boot-legging is simpler matter even than illicit traffic in wood-alco- hol: it's effects are never quite fatal; there is never the tell-tale breath; the rather severe headaches which often attack the tippler can always be blamed onto reading Theodore Dreiser or Pierre Louys, and although the vic tim may be often found doing an oc- casional shimmy with mental lamp post, or going round and round in revolving doors, yet it's manifestations never get beyond the family circle, if you get me.
 So much for the negative side of the ouija board-it is true, of course that the simple negative is an inn portant factor in ouijackal conversa- tion; that when its one best alphabet fails the board falls back upon "No": nevertheless it remains fact that if the little board ever becomes nuis- ance in American life it will be pos tive nuisance.
 Take the matter of syntax. Now syntax plays about as much part in the lives of most of us as the apostles creed. I myself get along without it in my ordinary business of buying sugar and things; my only difficulty is when meet a bang-up college pro- lessor who knows more about syntax than I know about the poll tax; after making a combination salad of my genders and numbers and cases, re- solve thenceforth to restrict my com munication to signs, only to discover that the ouija board succeeds in its half of a highly intelligent conversation without once getting it's language punctured by syntax. make adroit inquiry, for example, concerning the investment which have made in Fed eral Gusherino Oil.
 q can sell now at 34; should I wait and sell next month at 23?" I ask.
 The little three legged flat-iron pal pilates for a moment between "Yes" and "No," and then without trace of hesitation answers, spellfully and to

SNAKES

Since July last, snake stories have gone out of favor. In fact it is doubt ful if any really good snake. stories will ever trip from the tongue of man. Whatever the snake stories of the fu- ture-they will lack details as to color and size and will not have the intrigu- ing characteristics of those of pre- prohibition days. If the alcohol is not confiscated-museums will still have preserved specimens.
 Secretary and Treasurer, w. A. M. Vaughan of the Goodyear Tire & Rub Der company of California, who for merly had charge of the company's rubber plantations in Sumatra, has avoided all chance of losing speci- mems of three enormous pythons by simply preserving their skins. Ob- tained for him by natives while the virgin jungle was being cleared for rubber cultivation, these skins, meas uring IA, IF and 21 feet long, have been tanned by skillful Javanese and are now kept by MT. Vaughan as souvenirs of his task of wrestling the jungle from Nature for needs of mod ern industry.

A Waking Device

"Ah!" said the head-clerk. "1'm glad to notice that you're arriving punctually now, MT. Slocombe."
 "Yes, sir. I've bought a parrot"
 "A parrot? What on earth for? l told you to get an alarm-clock!"
 "Yes, I did. But after day or two I got used to it, and it didn't wake me. So I got the parrot, and now when I go to bed I fix the alarm clock and put the parrots cage on top of it. When the alarm goes off it startles the parrot, and what that birds says would wake up anybody! London Tit-iBts.
