A little experience oftens npsets a
lot Of theory.
A woman spent great deal OF her
leisure time campaigning against cap
ital punishment. She nexer let an OPP
portmity pass to sign petition, ap-
pealing to a governor for the commuta-
ton Of the sentence Of murderer
She became a great admirer Of a
noted lawyer, famous because he de-
Tended two notorious murderers, and
when this lawyer visited her city she
arranged for an Introduction in order
that she might compliment him.
A few days after she had met this
lawyer, and was stlll under the spell
Of his personality, her son, n young
man Of twenty-five, just out Of col
lege, was held up beaten and robbed
by couple of thugs.
Instantly her views toward capital
punishment changed. She favored
hanging. quartering and boiling in oil
for the assailants.

The freezing and thawing makes 'iie
roads get in bad condition, especlaily
where there is no graveling or drag
ring ever done. We would be in favor
of n move to improve our present main
roads in the way of graveling ana
dragging instead of so much talk about

on account Of the increase in num-

Clarence Dalton and Milton Mar

Berva Murrell returned home Mon
day from Manson where he has been
visiting relatives.
OF course we all know the old say
ing that "all work and no play makes
Jack a dull boy but in our opinion
some schools of today, especially the
town schools carry this argument too
far. BY this we mean that they seem
to be taking more time and interest
in the various ball games than in their
studies. We do not wish TO be under
stood as being wholly against athletics
in school but considering the mode of
living in towns of the size we have in
this section there is little need Of ath-
letics during study hours, for what
normal child does not get ample eAer-
else at play time? Also we know a
number of present and former pupils
who were always noted as being the
leaders in their classes and the bright
est pupils in school who never played
a game of ball nor engaged in any
other form of athletics in school in
their lives. This is a debatable ques
tion. What do others have to say?
