In the trial at Cheyenne, the govern

some of whom were in the courtroom
and some OF whom were in France, in

nearly all witnesses knew nothing
One of the most important of the gov

When Father SlUllnq

GUESS this one will hold Dad
NJ Nine-year-old Lydia Watts was
watching father swing at teed ball, at
Byron Hot Springs. California. last April,
when father smacked her on the cheek
with his niblick, putter, driver or what
ever it was he using to do the blowing
of the golf links Now. little Lydia, thru
her mother, sues father for $4,000 dam
ages. The papers don't state how far
Father Watts teed Lydia, but $4,000 for
teeing ones own innocent tho incautious
child seems moderate enough,
1t seems to be an entirely harmonious
arrangement-childt the damaged, mother
the litigant and father the defendant
and an arrangement meriting the interest
of all families having fathers who persist
in golfing. The only inharmonious party
seems to be the insurance company which
carries Father Watts golf insurance. Evil
IDENTIFY. if this company can be held for
Lydia's damage. it behooves all wives and
daughters to see to it that father carries
proper insurance against his driving both
ways at the tee.

THE United States is the only major

which begins April 81.
President Byram, of the Chicago, Mil

fourth of the lumber cut of 1922 came
from five states served by his road" said
Pack. Those states are Washington,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Idaho and Mon

"This situation brings forcibly to mind
that the public is now paying $3.50, 000.-
900 year in freight rates to get forest
products from distant points to the points
of greatest consumption.
"The consumer can not stand this sit

game of their lives, without man among

We have 1t. too, that every manager
while not claiming that he has the pen

one, If any, team that has got to beat
him out of it. Also, each manager has
some surprises up his sleeve.
Seriously, the folks need all of this pre-

there. How inspiring the ambitions of
thousands of young men to do their best
How helpful youths visions of success

This paper some time ago pointed out
the need for such equipment after an ac-
