The man in the corner seat was
heard to groan so horribly that he
frightened the other passengers, and
one hastily produced a flask and told
him to take a good swig of it.
Which he did.
DO you feel better now?" asked
the glver.
Il do that said the man in the
corner.
What were YOU suffering from?'
Suffering from?"
Yes; what made you groan so?"

RULING PREVENTS ARREST
Driver Without Operators License
Safe if Car Is Parked.

When you have been unfairly charged
by an officer for failure to have
your operators license with you,
and provided such failure to comply
with the law was an unfortunate ac-
cident on your part, It is well to re-
call a decision recently handed down
by Washington Traffic Court judge
relating to a similar case.
If your car is not moving at the
time the officer raises the point the
arrest is illegal. This gives the
motorist a chance to go and get his
license or hire a driver to take him
home. or to his destination, so that
he complies with the law.

He also voted for the so-caIled Lit eracy Bill (without teeth). By the way, he and Boss Murray were on the Election Committee that reported the Literacy Bill out to the House with the recommendation that the teeth be extracted (meaning thereby pulled). And they were The Juneau Empire and the Ketchikan Chronicle think that William l.. Paul and his illiterate colleagues from the First Division extracted the teeth; but req son would inform them and all others that Bobby and Boss Murray certainly never reported out the Literacy Bill (Without teeth) merely to please Paul. And Ben A. Grier too got into the limelight for he introduced his fierce bill "with teeth" and got a handsome eulogy from the Juneau Empire, the Anchorage Times, and others, and then Ben seconded the motion to ex- tract the teeth.

S., consid- cred that Coolidge was mighty lucky that two Demo-Independents had been elected from Fairbanks, otherwise MT. Coolidge would have to go with out his rabbits foot
 For these great deeds, the Fair banks district should be sure to send the Richardson Highway Transporta- tion Company (thru tickets are sold and routed over that line by the Alaska Steamship Company back to the next Legislature. The R. H. T. Go. is another name for Bobby and reveals his real character Jim Galen, who once filed for the office of Dele gate to Congress, is his partner. Those of you who know Jim, also know Bobby. It is surely fine that the people of Fairbanks are thoughtful enough to send the Alas ka Steamship Company to the Legis- lature. Do you know how long the R. H. T. Co. could live if the Alaska Steamship Go. did not sell through tickets over that line? Just about two weeks. As long as B. s. is good Bobby, he will continue to make money with Jim with their R. H. T. Co.
 Bobby, sometimes called B. S. for short, was very progressive legis- lator, and a great friend of the tenn perance people. He voted for the rc- peal of the direct Primary Law and for the repeal of the Bone Dry Act. Nate Hardy got lot of encourage ment from Bobby, and that Bootleg- gers Bill of Hardy's surely needed it.

Watson, by running as an Independent. "What's in q name? A rose by any other name would smell as sweet" We found out that there is nothing in name for both the aforementioned Mutt and JGIf" were still predatory Demo- crats.
 They both were very skillful poli- ticians, their skill consisting in pledg- ing unquestioning obedience to Boss Joseph Murray of Kennecott fame. Once, just once, on an important bill, Bobby voted contrary to his boss, and then, onl y after most painful silence during which the House was in great suspense, Bobby made up his mind.
 This Demo-Independent played a very important part in the delibera- tions of the last Session. He freed the United States, or-or-was it that he extended the Constitution to Alaska? Yes, that was it. He helped Nate Hardy, of the First Division and of Booze Row, in so doing.
 What else was it that Bobby did while at Juneau? Oh, yes. He got a bill passed-and Governor Scott C Bone signed it too, seeing that it could not help the resident fishermen any-that now permits corporations to act as administrators and executors of estates. That is a fine act, and all the departed souls will thank Bob- by Sheldon for his tender regard for their corporation sole. Starving or phans and Wistful widows too, will have cause to thank said Bobby for this important bill. Business should be fine in Fairbanks.
 Wasn't there something else that he did at Juneau? A memorial or resolution or something? Oh, yes, it was Bobby that showed the new gov ernor, George A. Parks, who were his real friends. B. s. (stands for Bobby Sheldon) introduced resolution tell ing Governor Parks what a fine ad- ministration he has had already after he finishes four years from now; and thanking President Coolidge for the fine record which MT. Parks has made already as governor when he gets into office, and otherwise kissed the foot of royalty. And because some of us merely wished to tell MT. Parks that we hoped he would be the best gov ernor Alaska ever had and promised to help him so far as we could con- sistent with our duties to the Terri tory, B. s. (meaning Bobby Sheldon) said we were enemies of MT. Parks, and we were not any longer Republi-

She had no business talking about

counting the cracks. Here was her
little boy at grips with the world

a fourteen year old boy has as many

Jimmy doesn't know whether he
wants to be pulled through. He's in
dizzy black maze of misery, in
which every thought hurts like jag

Sometimes when the sickness lets
up for bit, it seems TO Jimmy that
he has always been in the maze.
As far back as he can remember
most three ycars-hc's been getting
in wrong" Just seemed as il moth
ing he did was ever right. Gosh
half the time he didn't mean 90 do
nothing at all. But he had the
fiercest luck and it was one scrspe
after another
And there was always somebody
jawing ut him. Jawing and jawing
and JAWING. Geewilliger. il got
fellows goat to be always jawed
at. Made him feel that nothing
was worth while. Might ms well go
right out and do something awful.
Give 'em something to really talk
about.
Worst part of it was the way
they kept telling him he was break
ing his mothers heart" Ma didn't
know it, but he thought she was
swell. OF course she was different
from some fellows mothers. Never
had time to go to the movies with
him aud she didn't like dogs. But
she was awful nice just the same.
Something grew all hot and hurty
inside Jimmy's throat whenever he
thought of his mother.
And when she cried-Gee. it made
him feel fierce when Ma cried.
She cried lot. And got head
aches. And that time he got sus
pended from school she cried until she
went all white and funny and fell on
the floor and scared him most to
death.
All the time Pa and Billy-that's
his big brother-and Edna-that's his
big sister-and his school teacher and
Uncle Fred kept telling him he was
BREAKING HIS MOTHERS
HEART.
Ma told him so. too. Over and
over she told him he was BREAK

Made him just want to DIE when
she said things like that.

So he'd scooted down the alley and

And now the doctors think they

FOXY GRANDPA STORIES

"Ill simply have 10 set trap fol
that fox" said the Scotchman at whose
house We were spending a few days
up in the Highlands of Scotland.
Hes bad, is he?" / asked, hoping
that | might be able to do something
to prevent catching the poor fox.
"Yes," said the farmer. He eats
up all of my fowls and has destroyed
some of my best hares."
At the mention of hares, Bunny
shuddered and looked so frightened
that | was really worried about him.
But he came over, hoped up on my
knee and when | said Here's one hare
he won't get" he stopped trembling
and quieted down.
That evening the Scotcbnan came
in and said:
I've set the trap. Well fix that
fellow. | don't like to deprive any
wild animal Of his liberty, but this one
deserves it. He must be puni~hed.
Il suppose there's nothing else to
do" | sighed.
Might keep him for a pet" whis-
pered Bobby in my ear. IF We were
home We could, couldn't we, Foxy
Grandpa"
At this Bunny gave Bobby such a
look of disgust that his eyes turned
dark red.
We were IN bright and early next
morning and the first thing after
breakfast our host said.
Lets 90 out and see what's in the
trap"
We crossed moor and entered a
wood which bordered on the farm. The
Scotchman led the way. We followed
him into the forest and over TO a clump
of bushes.
Just as we reached the trap Bobby
said:
"Look-look up in that treetop. Isn't
that an eagle!"
"A fine golden eagle" said the farm
err. shading his eyes and looking up
at the great bird. He's got some
thing in his mouth, too. Can you see
wha it is, Bobby"

Love is not that which maketh a

that which filleth him with tender

Bobby.
Wonder what he's going to do with
it, asked as the great bird left
the treetop and lowered over our heads.
"Magbe he's taking it home to his
family for lunch" suggested BOBBY.
We moved on TO the trap now and
instead of finding something with four
feet and tail, there was something
with two feet and two Wings
THAT eagle couldn't have gotten
down out of the tree without our see
ing it," cried Bobby. but it is ex-
actly like it, isn't it,"
The eagles were identical, the one
in the treetop with the dead rat in
his beak and the one which was caught
in the trap intended for the fox.
This is a strange state of affairs"

had caught fox and here is an eagle
