TODAY'S HOOCH STORY Three aped Scots were in the habit of meeting Saturday evening at the; home of first one and then another of the prcup for social purposes. Their fecial demands were simple, ju.-t as, their tasts were similar. All they craved was an upportunity to sit by a' fire with their pines lit and their whisky glasses handy, in silence. One evening there had been an es pecially enjoyable session. Two (uarts of lhjuor had been consumed und hard ly a word spoken. At the approach of midnight the two guests stood up to so. One of them, with difficulty fo cusing his vision upon his host, who) sat in the inglenook, remarked to the i mini member ot the party tn an under tone: "What an awfu' look Sandy has on his face." "Aye," said his crony. "He's dead." "How long has he been dead?" in quired the first speaker in shocked tones. "The better part of twa hours." "Why did ye nae tell me before?" "Hoots, mon," said his crony. "I'm r.ae the one to brek up a pleasant even in'." OF COURSE It's easy enough to be pleasant When you put your foot on a nail. But the man worth while Is the man who can smile When his wife reads his personal mail. Nebraska City Press It's easy enough to be pleasant, When a pretty girl gives you the wink. But the man worth while Is the man who can smile When his golf game goes on the blink. According- to Jimmy Maxfield, Fail ing has not proved nopular so far this summer because the canoes are not equipped with lee-boards. Mike No lan insinuates that he wants at least three the next time he tries it, and that he's going to w ait until the wa ter gets warmer before he tries it again, lee boards or no lee boards. The manufacturers have the chest to ask $12 for a single measly lee board. If you can't swim, it's worth it. And if you can swim, they're a great convenience. 0!e Buck says: One of the big fool notions alvout radio is that the general iublic will enjoy grand opera received in that way.

Mav 22 Already the small boy and his elders are happy in anticipating the coming of this mighty tented amusement en terprise and its countless wonders. For this season the Christy Brothers have enlarged their shows in every depart ment, and their greatly augmented list of performers, feature acts and men agerie exhibitions made it necessary to and may more railroad cars. Today special trains and long double length cars are required to transport the huge tents, ponderous wagons, cages, dens, chariots, tableaux cars, elephants ca mels, ponies, men and women. In the triple zooligical garden, com bined under ore vast spread of canvas, are to be found the finest living speci mens ot rare, strange and curious ani mals form every quarter of the globe, and every animal an actor. Making a visit to Christy Brothers' wild animal exposition is of far greater educational v: lue than will ever be gained by the deepest study of all books at hand on the subject of natural history. Inside the vast water-proof canvar amphitheatre are four great rings and storl arenas encircled by a monster modern hippodrome track, ovei-capping all its veritable and other aerial rig ging. . .' 1-iom the beginning to the end of the performance, hundreds of men, women and animal performers cover the ground and fill the air in the rendi tion of the program, the like and equal of which have never before been seen. Every child visiting the afternoon performance will be given a free pony or elephant ride, with special atten dants to care for the kiddies. THERE'S A REASON (Nebraska City Press.)
