THE MAN AND GOOSE
Not a Fable)

In nineteen twentysix, December 9TH,
Before the minute hand had time to
shift,
Some Plentywood soul did travel
swift
In pursuit of a goose in the air adrift.
Some man. saw a goose right west of
town
While going thru his daily round
He went to the store and there he
found
Ralph Lund to receive the news pro-
found.
Fully convinced that the goose was
wild
He grabbed a gun and became quite
riled;
Dashed through the snow by the mile
With a locomotive chug all the
while:
Coming upon the scene in despair
He found the goose sitting gently
there.
Thinking that wild goose are rare
He had better shoot her with care;
He cooked his gun at a glance
Like he used to when he was in
France.
But 10! he found that he was in a
trance
For buck fever had robbed him OF
his chance
7 The innocent foul mounted the sky
And Ralph nervously followed her
e with eye;
= Soon his legs carried him on high
c And snow and rock around him die
fly:

G He had seen just where the goose
had lit;
: Within shotgun range he said "Dog
r gone it,
? She is going to be mine before
a quit"
o He peppered her with four shots i
al

Everything seemed to him like

But he insisted that she was WI

Said if you had seen her fly you

San Antonio Schools Teach
Children to Save Their
Pennies.

"As the twig is bent, so is the tree
inclined" and the habit OF thrift can
not he learned too young. Old Ben
Franklin it was who said, save the
the dimes and the dollars will take
care Of themselves" Tots in the
public schools are early taught the
habit Of thrift as a part of their
training in civics, mathematics and
home economics.
First, not to waste their time on
trivial matters in the school room !;
second. that when they begin some
thing that they must not idle over
it but keep. at it until it is done. As
they grow older, they. are taught that
pennies, nickels and dimes must not
be spent recklessly and that if put
in a savings bank on deposit that
they will make more dimes until they
become dollars.
This is particularly impressed on
pupils at Thomas Nelson Page Junior
School, and as Thrift Week comes
around many of the students put into
practice what they have been taught
and learned.
Taking their lesson to heart, Phyllis
Wegner and Katherine Hill, petite CO.
eds at Page School, decided that they
would content themselves with all
day suckers as refreshments instead
Of more expensive sweets, and thus
start Thrift Week right. and make
the savings bank account grow.

ROBBERS LOO 7
8. A. HOME Of
JE v ELS

Jewel robbers, who since the first
of the year have been terrorizing San
Antonio homes, made another big haul
Wednesday night Mt the home Of j. E.
Dickey, 216 Eleanor avenue. Value Of
the loot has not been estimated.
Forcing entrance through front
door the thieves ransacked the house
but spurned silver and other valuables,
taking nothing but jewelry.
Work of the thieves led police to
believe that the thefts were made by
members Of the same gang that has
burglarized other San Antonio homes.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dickey had left their
house Wednesday afternoon and re-
turned to find everything topsy turvey.
After a hurried check of the missing
property, police were notified.
The list of missing jewelry fur
nished police is: two strands of pearls,
a gold barpin with a diamond set,
and two woman's wrist watches.
