The annual retreat for the student
of St. Agnes academv was conducted'
last week by Rev. M. F. McNulty, S. J.,
or &u l gnat us College, Chicago. The
exercises were very well attended and
each hour message found a responsive
chord in the hearts of the retreatanta.
T were long to tell of all he told,
Of love so warm and hearts so cold;
Or how he made our sinful lives
Maud taitn before our shameful eyes,
He warned u all with heavy word,
By all he ever saw and heard:
"be Sunbeams bright; be kind and just
And rise you will or fall you must
Go forth, shed 'ight on the wordly
throng
You know what's right, you know-
what s wrong.
The little Sunbeams will long re
member Father McNulty's many les
sons of filfal pietv and devotion. At
the close of the Ketreat a resolution
was adopted to form a Literary club
or the dessemination of Catholic
Literature.

A poem by Wianifred Tibbits of the
Baptist church:
Are you a stranger in our city,
Does the strangers seem so drear,

Come, welcome, unto me.
There you'll find your trouble. fading
In that friendly crowd of chvr,
And you'll go away light-hearted
Thanking God he sent you here.
Nhen you meet the faithful pastor,
You will know you met a man.
And will find him ever eager
To tlo good where'er he can.
There's a jolly crowd of yo.ung folks
In their ranks there's work to do,
If you'll only come and meet them
They'll be glad to welcome you.
If - our youthful days are over,
Don't dismay, you're needed too
And there's classes there to serve you,
And a welcome that's trua bjue.

RANDOM SHOTS
Some of these days we are going to
get Perc. Cogswell out to one side and
see if he can't get us admitted to the
next tate convention of the retail
ClOthlerS,
Here's what the news report
says happened, and it has piqued our
curiosity and aroused our interest, not
to say enthusiasm:
"Clothiers attending the seventh an
nual convention of the Nebraska Re
tail Clothers' associations at the Fon
tenelle paid more attention to E. J.
Berg, display expert for Burgess-Nash
when he was draping evening gowns
and wraps on a living model, young
and good looking, too, than they did to
the rest of the proceedings during yes
terday afternoon."
And hen? we've been thinking that a
retail clothiers' convention had a!out as
much kick to it as a district meeting
of the Y. M. C. A.
Th:s teachers us, brothers, that we
never can teil by the looks of a frog
how ar he can jump.
They tell us there was a vaudeville
show on the last night, and that
Irene's little sister was there.
BALLADE OF SKIRTS.
(Nebraska City Press)
We didn't like the trailing kind,
We said 'twould spread disease;
We flout the ones they're wearing
now .
The ones up to their knees.
We didn't like the ones with hoops;
They kept us too far off. ,
And when they wore the bustle kind,
Again us men-did Feoff.
The "slit" one" we. could never bear,
Wesaid it lookedysque. '
And when theywore the X-ray kind
Of; course we - dubbed them "gay." t
They've worn them longj they've worn
them short;
They've worn them narrow, wide;
They've worn them loose; they've worn
them full;
They've worn them tight as hide.
They've worn them thick; they've worn

They've worn them ruffled, plain,
But I'm compelled by" truth to state

1 think they've worn them every way
I hat human brain could plan,
But each and every one of them

Maybe Paddy of Sidney, furnishes
the Telegraph a good bit of its legal
business. Otherwise, the criticism r
the Elks vaudeville show passed w the
bounds of decency as well as common
courtesy. Ui course, if a good cus-
j tomer with a sore head insists, uie
1 boot-Iickmg editor usually complies.
Funny thing about it is that the A'
liance folks actually wanted to do their
bit toward getting an Elks lodge for

they'll be willing to help that town get
is a morgue.
If we were Harp, we'd take that

A RARE INSTANCE.
(York Republican)
Judge Good was relating the ex
perience of one of his friends who
made a visit to Texas to see what pros
pect a republican lawyer had for set
ting up business in that land of the
Kreat unwashed. He made some in
quiries to learn where the republican
headquarters were located. The south
ern barri-ter whom he sounded out in
formed him that there was no such
thing. "There isn't," the northerner
queried "why not?" "We won't allow
it, sah," was the reply. "Then where
is the democratic headquarters?"
pressed the visitor. "There is none."
leplied the southerner; "we don't need
it." The inquisitor was still unsatis
fied. "Did you ever elect a republican
to the bench down here," he asked.
"Once," replied the disciple of A. Jack
eon, "and darned if he didn't do pretty
well."

The editor of the Rushville Standard
presents his compliments thusly to the i
editor of the Hay Springs News, fol-1
lowing some discussion over the dis
tribution of county printing: I
"Well, Benny, you old walrus, you
suppose you have said something. Si ou
are a sweet-scented ass to take your
pen in hand and hand out to your Hi")'
subscrilcrs such dope as heads thisi
column. Don't think for a moment, '
Schotter, that the Standard is 'weep-j
ing, wailing or gnashing iU teeth' be
cause of the loss of the printing. We
have lived beyond that." I
The reply, in Mr. Benschottcr's mof t
scathing style:
-""'the editor of the Standard can't
get over it. Did you listen to his brain
storm last week? He i. still wailing
about that county printing. According
to his idea no one has a right to any of
it but him. He ev.en got to silly as to
call us names. He got so, mad that he
wet on his pencil point and gave the
county commissioners a roasting. The
commissioners are laughing at him,
and so are we. Ha, ha, ha. He got so
foolish that he intimated that the
News had only 165 readers. Of course
he didn't say so right out but he just
ccted like he wou'd like to have the
public believe it. We don't know nor
don't care what the circulation of the
Standard is, but we do know that if its
editor is as rotten aa the guess he is
making as regards the circulation of
the "News hi must smell louder than
he can bray. AH Rushville must be
stunk out of house and home by this
time. Rushville citizens sure must be
proud (?) of this wind 'jammer and

ANOTHER COUNTY HEARD FROM.
(Gordon Journal.)
Brother Mayes of the Rushville
Standard says, "Joie of the Gordon
Journal made an ass of himself over
the county printing." Think how
much more of an ass he would have
boen, had the Lord had a hand in it,
an he did in the case of Mr. Mayes.
. TODAY'S BEST STORY.
Willie was in a bad temper. His
mother had iust discovered that there
was not a clean nightshirt ready lor
him to wear.
"Never mind, Willie," she said, con
solingly. "You will have to put on one
of vour sister's nightgowns tonight."
"What, a girl's?" snorted V illie
drawing himself up haughtily.
"Yes. Why not?" asked mother in
surprised.
"I won't wear it!" declared the
small boy. "I'd rather to bed
raw."
Hemingford is ambitious to build a
town hall. A jail is greatly needed,
the Ledger says, as now the cop has to
bring his prisoners to Alliance or ele
sit up with them.
In these days, when bootleggers
have lots of money, we'd think a cop
would prefer to sit up with his prison-j
ers, provided he can entice 'em to play
poker. It's the chance of a lifetime.

essay on "Editors" and here is the

a yard long without knowing what it
