BOYS LOYALTY pRoveRs,AL

Love me, love my dog" is one of
the first articles OF faith in the aver.
age boys credo. For the juvenile
loyalty to His Dogship is charact-
eristic of boyhood. Perhaps the boy
loves the dog for the same good and
sufficient reason that the lamb loved
Mary But that as 1t may, trying to
separate a dog and boy who love
each other is harder and more cruel
than bisecting a pair OF Siamese
twins. It's worse than major oper-
alton and the wounds never heal.
even II the sufferers survive the or
deal.
Most parents are mildly tolerant
of the family dog. because they re.
alize dimly that Busters heart is
wholly involved in the fortunes Of
the cur, and that rupture OF their
tender relations would be too dismal
proceeding to be worth the struggle
of getting rid of the creature. But
did 1t ever occur to you that the
boy who grows up in an orphan asy-
lum has no dog. and thus misses one
OF boyhood's chiefest joys?
How one orphan dealt with the
dog problem is amusingly shown In
William d. Taylor's great film, 1.-The
Soul Of Youth" which comes to the
Peerless theater in this city on We'd
nesday. April 30. The youthful hero
of the piece is an orphanage lad. and
his escapades both at the home and
after he runs away from II to live
the uncertain life OF the street ur-
chin form an engrossing story. The
chief role is carried by Lewis Sar-
gent. the boy who made "Huck Finn"
live on the screen. His impudent.
mirth-loviDg face is familiar to pic.

KNIFE WEEDERS
"Ncw Model 81" Is Now Ready

Twenty-one years ago, Mr.. Clayton
lived ON farm and made his first
knife weeder. It had wooden run
ners, the knives were hard to adjust,
1t was heavy and pulled hard, but 1t
did good work. Every year that he
stayed on the farm he made a new
model, aiming to decrease the draft,
increase the strength and decrease
the weight, and make all adjustments
simple and easy. Steel runners re-
placed the wooden runners, and from
year to year important improvements
were placed on the machine, mate
rally increasing its efficiency and
value. Whine on the farm. Mr.. Clay
ton worked up quite business max
ing these machines and selling them
to his neighbors. After he left the
farm he still continued to make a
new model every year, until he has
now perfected his New Model 81"
for the coming season. This new
model is a mighty fine machine for
killing weeds and saving moisture In
any listed field, and It would hardly
seem possible that any further i'm
provements could be made upon 1t.
1.-The Weeder Factory, Hill City,
Kan.," is where this machine is now
made. and any farmer, within driv-
ing distance of the factory, can easily
take his car to Hill City and haul Cne
home. They are so easily taken apart
that two OF the double-row machines
are frequently hauled in Ford car.
Tfhe one-row machine weighs 95
pounds, the two-row $50 pounds, and
tho three-row $50 pounds. The one
row machine sells for $50, the two
row for 500, and the three-row for
$50. These prices are for machines
without eveners, and with 4-foot side
knives. Longer knives can be fur
nished as extras, and also eveners, IL
desired. Most farmers have all tho
.eveners that are necessary for these
machines. All Of the older models
will be discontinued after this sea-
son. Two-row machines of last years
model may still be had. while they
last, at $500 to $1,000 less than the
above prices.

the face submerged in water.
They immediately went to his res.
cue. After pulling him from the wa.
ter they thought he was dead. They
observed an Involuntary tremor and
realized that the lad was stiil alive.
They Immediately applied their knowi.
edge Of first aid and when they had
brought life back one OF the lads con.
tinued to administer first aid while
h other went for assistance to a
nearby farm house.

pitai here where ct a late hour this
afternoon he had apparently respond.
ed but little to the treatment The
authoities were unable to learn any
thing from the boy who is stll unable
TO talk as a esult OF his hazardous
experience.
The fac that all effc-ts to locate
any relatives OF tho lad have proven
20 be In vain adds somewhat TO the
mystery OF the case.
Medical attendants say that tho lad
has suffered 16 commissions. which
may or may not be on o OF the
fact that the lad was nearly drowned.
IL is believed that tho lad WINS eithe
suffering from an attack OF epilepsy
or that he leaned over tho bank to get
a drink OF water, stangled and fell into
the water
Both police and county officials
have undertaken to solve the case
and messengers were dispatched at

lad is q member Of any family living

indicates conclusively that the pris,
oners were properly locked In the
cells last night and that the work OF
giving them freedom was entirely
handled by outside parties.
The story which has been told at
the sherin's Office today is that two
or more persons. equipped with a
special motor saw and heavy forcing
implements pried the steel reinforced
screen from the west window of the
jail. after which st wa but a mat.

steel bar from their lodgment by the
use OF the power saw.
When a hole large enough to per
nit the prisoners to escape had been
cut In the window, the outsiders en-
tered the cell room, cut the lock on
the master lock box, opened the cell
doors and permitted the six men, In
Guiding Morton. Nicholson, Howard
and Jennings and the two Mexicans
to make their get away.
AT the time that the six prisoners
made their escape with the assistance
of outsiders there were 16 prisoners in
the jail. 10 of whom were In the cells
on the side of the Jail from which the
break was made and the other six on
the north side of the jail. Four OF
the prisoners refused to take advan.
tage Of the opportunity of escape.
So conclusive is the result of tho jail
delivery that the authorities here be-
licve that the underworld friends of
either Morton or Nicholson or both
are responsible for the jail break.
The authorities have been able to
definitely establish the approximate
time OF the jail delivery because of
the fact that ]. S. Wilson recently
convicted Of a statutors charge was
last night when the authori-
ties held that the signers OF his $780,
