One feels almost like apologizing for

good excuse for the uniqueness of this
fish story II is gospel truth, says
George L. Brown, according 20 the

Carl was tired and he just dumped
his bull pouts with the grass in which
he had carried them home, into a

put the dishpan in the kitchen sink
and turn on the faucet little, and he
did so before going to bed.
That's where the story begins. The
rest Of it happened while Carl was
asleep. You see, the grass overlooked

then the sink filed up and overlooked.

A Real Rat KuIluq

Since the men Of Elnora began to
notice the damage caused by rats
we have joined together to kill every
rat IN this community. We find the
best method to follow is to visit
each home and move all feed, wood
piles and all places where rats hide,
have yeur dogs aud clubs ready aud
kill and pile them on brush heap
and burn them. In this way Kay
Moore, Herman HIbbard, Edgar
Cooper, Tom Burcheti, Elmer
WIllcut and Fms Stewart got to-
gether aud IN one day last week
killed four hundred and twenty one
rats IN only two homes. Think Of
the destruction the rats are causing
everywhere. Come on, lets get busy
aud have a real rat killing campaign.
Let's fight them just as we fought

A Modern Coriolanus !?

Mussolini has introduced re-
greshing element into the Italian
political situation. Instead Of speak
ing as a politician anxious not to
offend he has plainly told the Italian
Chamber that he is ready to dissolve
it upon need. He has informed the
members that in addressing them he
is performing "what is an act of
purely formal Difference" toward
them, for which he does not seek
their thanks. He explains that with
his army of 100000 he might well
have closed Parliament altogether,
and adds: 81 say ] might have done
these things, but--at least for the
present. have not wished to do
them"
There is something of the rough
brusqueness of Coriolanus in this
spirit. The scorn of Coriolanus, it is
true, was directed against the Ro-
man proletariat and against their
representatives, the tribunes. But
when urged to observe the decorum
of political formalities and not to
give the people and their tribunes
offense by demanding his own way
Coriolanus waxed more and more
outspoken. TO all the entreaties of
his friends he grew more obstinate,
insisting that he would not give in TO
them, even though they presented
him with death on the wheel or at
wild horses heels,
"Or pile ten hills on the Tarpeisn
rock,
That the precipitation might down
stretch
Below the beam of sight, yet will /
Be thus to Them
Mussolini, it is to be hoped, will
not suffer the fate of Coriolanus;
but his plain, blunt speech and di-
rect ways, reminiscent of that hardy
soldier, are welcome in an age when
time-serving is the method Of so
many politicians.
New-York tribune., 1922-11-20

these would be emergency regula-
tons only and would effect no per-
ulanent Improvement. There is no
reason why in the mean time plans
should not be formulated for sub
ways or viaducts which would enable
motor cars to move to and fro on
Manhattan Island without endanger-
ing the lives of pedestrians and pas
sengers in other motor vehicles.
The sooner a comprehensive
scheme of this sort is got under way
the sooner it viii be completed. And
until it is completed there is little
hope of greatly lowering the death
rate incident to automobile accidents.
AS member of commission to
study the situation and make sug-
gestions for its permanent relief
there could be no better equipped
man than Chief Magistrate McAdoo.
