JUST FOLKS
THE LAUGHING FOOL.
By EDGAR A. GUEST.


The world admires the kindly man
Who grins and does the best he can,
But there's time 2 laughing face
A time when for q little while
1t doesn't pay to wear q smile.
Bill Green had heard 1.-THE man who grins
Is usually the man who wins,
And SO unto himself he said:
I'll laugh until the day I'm dead.
When trials come and things go wrong,
III laugh and ehuekie right along"
While working in china store
One day Bill dropped upon the floor
A costly vase of rare design,
Which crashed just like bursting mine.
1t made his boss exceeding hot
To see the ruin Bill had wrought.
seYou laundering fool % the boss exclaimed,
The while in rage his visage famed; 4
Your careless hands have now let fall
The most expensive vase Of all,
A model Of the potter's cFaftr'
And Bill looked up at him and laughed.
A second later thru the door
OF that once peaceful china store
A flying HI man form was seen;
We recognized as William Green,
Belabered by an angry chief
Intent on bringing him to grief.
Later, when calm had settled down,
The chief explained to all the town
That he had kicked Bill from his place
For laughing boldly in bis face
Which goes to prove the man who wins
Is not always the man who gFfRs-

PLANT YOUR TREE.

No product of nature commands
more respect, creates more admira-
ton and brings more comfort than a
tree.
Trees are the result of years of
growth. standing in review of genera
tions and the survivors of seasons,
storms and all the elements.
The week of October 81 to Novefn-
Der is Tree Planting week" thru
out the United States.
Kansas should join heartily In the
movement.
In Kansas a tree is a cherished
and-coveted piece of property. Kan
sas did not clear her lands of forests
to create fertile fields. She has
planted her forests and guarded them
against prairie fires, drouths and
pests.
A grove of trees or a climber" as it
is called in Kansas. IS invaluable to a
farm. It is the hunting ground, 1t is
the picnic resort, it is the shaded area
that breaks up an otherwise monot-
onous horizon.
In eastern kansas where the
streams and rivers are more plentiful
there are more trees but in the west
ern part of the state the timber has
been brought about thru the thought
fulness OF our early settlers.
The beautiful towns" In Kansas
are the villages and cities with wide
shaded streets. The most valuable
town property is the plot with old
Gins or hickory or maple.
Yet there are thousands and thou
sands OF vacant lots in old towns and
new towns that are barren of shade

HEART AND HOME PROBLEMS
Written for The State journal
By ELIZABETH THOMPSON

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been
going with a fellow for almost four
years and he asked me TO marry him.
/ have been married and my husband
and I couldn't get along on account
of his people, They caused trouble
between us all the time. The people
of the fellow am going with now do
not like me. 1 think . great deal OF
him and he does of me. Do you think
it would be all right for ma to marry
him if his people do not care for me
WORRIED.
You face the same trouble which
caused separation from your first
husband Surely something must DE
wrong with your attitude toward the
parents of the men VINO love you, or
they would not dislike you as you say
they do. Consider their feelings more
and try to get their point of view. 1
believe II you are more lovable to
them they will love you in return.
Try 1t.
If you think the mans love for you

from his family, and IL your love for
him is great enough to stand their
opposition. too, marry.

Girl Babies a Drug on the Markell.
One of the most curious things in
the world is that when people are
going to have a child of their own
they almost invariably impcrtune the
stork to bring them a baby boy, yet
il they are going to adopt child they
nearly always choose a girl baby.
Orphan asylum officials tell you
that they have a never ending de-
man6 for female infants, while scare
iy anybodH is willing TO take as a
the family circle. where peoples
babies are wished on them instead
of their having q chance to choose the
kind OF a. one they want, boy babies
are unfavorably regarded as val
liable family asset, while girl babies
are always below par, and generally
below NJ. A. in public estimation.
OF course it is easy to see why boys
should be in demand in Europe where
there are titles to be inherited, ana
great names to be perpetuated, ana
where a dot has to be thrown in. ike
a chrome with a pound OF tea, with
girl, to get her married at all.
| In America where all babies are
born free. and are equally entitled to
get out and support the family, there
seems no reason for this invtdious
class distinction.

that there was no choice. Both are

Silly watches of the night, she can

Moreover, both are equally valuable
as training partners for Papa when

that the art of oratory is not lost
art by saying Goo" in way that
the mendacious parents translate into
the unparalleled feat of cutting a first
tooth that the satellites around the
cradle regard as the most beautiful
and rare object of virtue In the world.
4 OF course, it will be urged that the
chief pleasure to be derived from a
baby is the pleasure of the irnagina-
ton, and the stimulus it gives to fancy.
All the great remancers and liars have
been parents. The cruel world may
see nothing remarkable about r.
| wobbiy, moon-faced little creature,
but its father and mother can detect
genius in a countenance with no more
expression in 1t than saucer OF
breakfast food; they behold intellect
stamped upon the noble forehead that
is SO broad that it runs to the back
of the hairless head they marvel at
the logival faculty. so fully developed
in one so young, that leads it to cry
when it is hungry, and when the little
face gets as red as a boiled lobster
and the little hands beat the air in i'm
potent rage, they are filled with adj
miration of its preeocity at knowing
} how to howl for the things 1t wants.
