The Court Said
ii Nothing Stirring

Ralph Peterson is member OF the
jury of the district court, but not
by choice. He is also member of
the Holyoke fire department. which
makes him a member of the state
firemen's association, and he carries
a membership card which says some
thing like this on the back:
.R. S. Colo. 1908, Chapter n, Sec
tion g.. says. No Person shall here
after be entitled to exemption from
jury duty or from the payment Of
q poll tax. unless such person shall
attend at least four regular meetings
of the company to which he belongs
each year"
AZ Ralph did not want to serve a.
Juror. he presented his fireman mem.
bership card to the court. but 1t
seems the judge could see no reason
who he should not do jury duty.
Then he got an amdavit from Fire
chlsf Kinnamsn to the eject that
he was q member in good standing.
still the courts position is reported
as nothing stirring.
Perhaps II Ralph had informed the
court that he had been married only
a few days. the Judge might have
said: Now you are talking. young
man. Any newlywed should be ex-
empt from judy duty. You may co."

DOING VALIANT WORK

1 Those residents OF Lakeland who today gave

county motorcade have done a good days work

hiendly altitude OF those composing the motor
Eaoe who made it PLAIN that without friendship
sru understanding, no county, no community, can
trcsper.as ii ought And it is moi to be inferred
that heretofore The people of Polk have not been

be far from the truth but ii might be said that
occasion had not been offered recently TO give
actual demonstration OF The gcod will that pre-

This thing Ct standing aloof and allowing the

is the inculcaticn of a spirit of increased loyalty
to Polk and her institutions he fact that we

the opinion OF all who have studied past events.
1t is to rejoice over what has been done and to
