Our song leader, Cub Hunt, is a
hard man to please, which is true OF
any Lion when perfection is absent,
but not being satisfied with "having
his day. at last weeks meeting, the
Cub managed to acquire much at
tention at this weeks luncheon, and
most of the Lions lett with the
knowledge of an over exercised set of
vocal cords.
We sang in front of each course,
after each curse, and during them,

which may seem a peculiar item to
find at a luncheon of sedate bust
ness men, but they were there, and
they rang long and loud.
The question of adequate street
lighting was the first important
tinez, Chairman Of the Committee
made the following report from a
brief survey made by the Westing-
house Electric Co.
A district of eight blocks, COM
prising the principal business streets,
would require approximately lis
iron poles, of suitable architecture,
and these would be installed by the
Westinghouse Company, together
with all appurtenances, at an esti-
mated cost of $11,600.00.
The same poles could also be pur-
chased by the city at a Wholesale
cost and installed by contract, and
certain progressive business men of
this city have stated their willing
ness to furnish the cost of such
poles together with the expense Of
installation, where the lights would
be situated in front of their places
of business.
A committee. composed of Cubs
Bible. Martinez and Nyland. was ap-
pointed TO further Investigate the
lighting situation and remedies

ians in order to ascertain their at
titude toward the same.

Eve since Ma does the the Pussy

Along comes Senator Reed, of
Pennsylvania, proposing a similar

erect a monument at the same place.
No doubt the two solons will wax
warm and furious over who is to
erect the monument on Mountfacon

Mediate

AS you sit alone and ponder
In this city of silent men;
If your mind should backward wander
And the light of hope grows dim;
If in life you have made blunder
And the chance of freedom looks slim !;
Just forget, companionships hunger,
Get busy and keep your mind in trim.
Perhaps you are lover of reading
Short stories, wild and bold,
Where two gun Jack is bleeding,
Such stuff your mind will mold.
IT education you are needing,
Latest books or history old,
Can be had by simply needing
The library catalogue that you hold.
Though man may be down and under
He is never counted out,
Even though he wears number,
If he takes an honest route.
Study hard till time to slumber
Every night, don't sit and pout
Time in here you shouldn't squander,
Cause some day you may get out.

BEAUTY AND HER BEASTS

The first time saw her she appealed to
I asked her sort O. casually could 1 please
be her beau.
l was feeling rather beastly but l soon
began to cheer
When she answered in the affirmative and
called me perfect deer.
Then she snuggled up to me like poor
timid hare
When l squeezed her, she gasped, ooh,
boy you're BEAR"
l told her of adventures that sure were
death defyin'
She cooed, "My hero, save your breath
know you are a lion."
Then seein' it was leap year, she was the
first to vote
That we go and get united, then of course,
was the goat
l asked her, after marriage, what she pro-
posed to do?
She says, "I'll buy bird cage, for you're
Just little cuckoo"
l started to sing her little song but she
stopped me with gentle force
When | asked her, whats amatter," she
says, "You're a little horse"
l says, "My dear, l really must sing, in
order to show my Glass;"
She answered, 81 need no demonstration,
know you, silly ass"
"You simply must be full of hops!" (in
other words toad).
Well we finally got hitched and 1 agreed
to be her hunky.
From the way she puts me through my
tricks, you'd take me for donkey.
Not chance have to get my wind, she
keeps me on the jog,
Anyone with half an eye can see, lead
the life of dog.
But still there is another phase, in this most
beastly element,
In that she seems to consider me only
big white elephant
Wherever we're seen together be it ball,
or formal feasts
There's always an hilarious greeting to,
Beauty and her beasts"

We clipped the following from one of

The adage: "It pays to advertise"
was fully verified by the great demand for

announcement of last week.
Clara Kimball Young, straight from

tion from the audience assembled in the
auditorium on last Sunday.
We are unable to state why L. F. H.
is not sending in any "Songs and Satire"
but if we were to hazard a guess we should
say that he is alternating during the win
ter.

lately has put quietus on any thoughts
we may have had on yard privileges. The
steam radiators have a greater attraction
these days.

AS "Good Words,"a paper published by
the inmates of the Atlanta, Ga, institution,
lies on our desk we are moved to express
our congratulations to the new instructor in
printing for the remarkable improvement
in the makeup and general character of
the publication.
The guitar and vocal selections by J.
L. and O. E. B., during the last movie,
production, was very pleasing innova7
ton. We hope to have the pleasure of
hearing these artists again and that others
will follow their example and show us
what they can do to add to the pleasure
of our entertainments.
We note in one of our exchanges that
the Tenth Ward, Baseball Club, winners of
the Minneapolis Municipal League (di-
vision d. championship last year, will be
in evidence again the coming season. Our
boys will remember this club as the "Kid-
dies" who played two wonderful games
here last year. We understand they are
considering the advisablity of changing
the name of the club to "Miler's Giants"
in compliment to their manager Mr.. H.
c. Miller.

FRIEND O. MINE

When you are happy, friend O mine,
And all your skies are blue,
Tell me your luck, your fortune fine,
And let me laugh with you.
Tell me the hopes that spur you on,
The deeds you mean to do,
The gold you've struck, the fame you've
won,
And let me joy-with you.
If you are sad, and heart a-cold
And all your skies are dark,
Tell me the dreams that Knocked your hold,
The shafts that missed the mark.
Am l not yours for veal or woe?
How else can friend prove true?
Tell me what breaks and brings you low,
And let me stand-with you.
And when the night falls tremulous,
When last the lamp burns low,
And one of us, or both of us,
The long lone read must go,
Give me a handclasp true:
Whatever fate our souls await,
Let me be herewith you.

Clara Kimball Young never fails to please,
for that matter, and the supporting caste

Robert did not appear so incongruous
in the role of the male milliner. And
what an oilcan he turned out to be. 1t
should be the duty of the recently organ
ized antihirt organization to broadcast a
warning concerning slender, wellgroomed
males with trick mustaches.
Betty Francisco as the young, but not
tender, Broadway chicken was convincing.
We are still wondering how one deliberate
ly thrusts such blond loveliness away.
Reel life, we guess to be the answer as it
simply isn't done in real life.
'Straight From Paris" was entertaining
to the nth degree. An old plot to be sure;
the young lovers being held apart by a
proud and aristocratic parent, but there
are only thirty-six dramatic situations, and
it is original treatment that makes story.
The theme was good the acting was good,
and the entertainment value of the picture
was high.
Several treats are in store for you in the
rear future. The much-talked about pic
ture, "The Kid" is scheduled for an early
date, as well as "Peck's Bad Boy" featuring
Jackie Coogan, local favorite.
To MeSsrs. L. and B. we extend our ap-
probation for the vocal and instrumental
numbers so ably rendered. May you favor
us again with more of the same in the
near future.
Some "dog" the orchestra is putting on

A word to the wise. Did it ever occur
to you that there are times when applause
and noisy intaking of breath are entirely
out of place? That you appreciate such
scenes is evident. Why be responsible for
having them curtailed?

WMteley Slated for
assistant attorney

If the attorney general of the
United States should grant author
ity for the appointment Of a second
assistant to the United States attor-
ney for the Nevada district, as seems
probable from recent correspondence
on the subject, George A. Whiteley
of Ely, author of the Whitley pro
hibition act which passed at the last
session of the legislature and later
declared to be unconstitutional by
the state supreme court, will be the
man. Whiteley was one of the first
applicants for the place, but it was
rendered to Edgar Father. district at.
torney of Eureka county. When
Father notified Mr.. Springmeyer that
he could not accept Whiteley renew
ed his application and the United
States prosecutor decided to appoint
him. 1t will be necessary for him
to spend his time in Carson City.
70 Mr.. Whitley will enter upon his
duties as an experienced prosecutor,
he having served White Pine county
as its district attorney for four years,
Mr.. Whitley also was a Rhodes
scholar in his college days.-Reno
