Ono of tho interesting things at
Uio graduation cxcorclses was a small
boy who snt in tiic south balcony
near tho platform. Ho was unknown
and appeared to be n.ovorhulln. lib)
baro feet wero frequently neon waving
over tho edgo of tho balcony. Ho
nmusod himself in various ways dur
ing tho first part of tho sorvico but
when tho Bishop aroso ho turned his
eyes on tho speaker tind although wo
lookod nt him a numbor of times wo
did not seo him tako his oyos off tho
speakor's faco Many and many a baro
foot boy has rocolved his groat Ilfo
lnsplrtlon nt a chuiltiuiqua, lycoum or
camp-mooting from tho oloquenco of
a speaker with a soul nnd a mcs
sago.
i Tho programs distributed at tho
graduation oxorclscs brought back to
mind a custom which has cropt Into
our idea of tho Board of Education
Thero wore their names listed in full
on tho back pago after tho graduatos
and all ,tho faculty had been given.
Tho Unlvorslty and collogcs know
better nnd thoy always glvo tho names
of tho board tho placo of honor. It Is
A Shoe For
Comfort
The f.cot are ono of tho important
norvo contors of the body. Promluont
norvo specialists often start their
troatmout on tho foot of Lhelr patients
This shows how Important It Is to
wear comfortable good-lltting shoos.
You tako from .,000 to 8,000 stops a
day. Think what Unit- moans to your
loot! If tho ohoo is ,not doslgnod an:
constructed to harmoutzu uorfoctlv
with your foot, four" thousand tlmoH u
uay mo norvos must suitor, it's no
wondor a bud pair of shoos can tiro you
out
"Tho foot In a cantllovor Bprlng bo
mado that when It is aflowod to func
tion normally It carries rtho body with
tho greatest possible ease and
roslllonco" Dr. Douglas Stewart, ono
of Now York'B loading specialists
"Propor Hhoos nro essential for tho
propor function of tho foot." Dr,
wllmor Knmon, head of tho Doimrt
mout of Public Health, of Philadelphia
Tho Cantllovor Shoo is a "nropor'
shoo, a wondorfully comfortable shoo,
and it ib so modish that you nro proud
to woar it- Tho arch is iloxlblo, llko
tho arch of your foot. Tho fit Is snug
but truo. Tho toes uro not crowdod.
Tho hools uro high ouough to bo grace
ful and sensible but not too high.
Cantllovor comfort is bo real that
your foot nro "off your mind'' and you
can enjoy life. Gomo to us nnd got
Httod and bogin now to enjoy Canti
lovor comfort.

tho board which Borvo without pay
wliilut tho faculty and the studonts get

students are but to carry out the plane

comoa It in tho board which Bhoulddrs
tho responsibility for decision. Every

a panning remark on a custom which

Last year tho Camp Fire Council

Tho following list of books of fic
tion has been compiled from reports
mado by two hundred representative
libraries in every section of the
country and in cities of all sizes
down to ten thousand. It Is a list of
books most in demand. Thoy aro
tho ten most-called.for books at this
tlmo. Havo you read any of them?

Hero Is a sign of prosperity. The
Ford Motor company announces that
Jt sold during tho month of April just
past, 127,249 Ford cars and trucks.
This a dally averago of .6,210 cars.
Tho Ford company thus sold more
cars In April than there aro of all
makes In Lincoln county. Tho com
pany announces that the factory at
Dotrolt is now operating at full cap
acity, having a force of more than
40,000 men on tho pay roll. Tho sched
uled output for May will probably
roach 135,000 cars and trucks which
will be applied against orders ap
proximately 1G5.0001 During tho
same month the Bale of Fordsou
tractors roached 11,181 In tho United
States. This shows 100 per cent over
tho host month In 1921.
Tho primaries tako the placo of tho
party nominating conventions of for
mer years. Thorofore thoy aro of In
terest only to those people who want
to' take a part In nominating tho candi
dates on tho dlfforent party tickets.
So a man or woman who Is Indepen
dent in politics has no business voting
at tho primaries. IIo or she has tho
right to vote but ho or she must vote
with some party nnd then bo an inde
pendent when tho eloctlon comes. In
Othor words, only Democrats who
know thoy aro Domocrats and who
say thoy are Domocrats, havo tho right
to help nominate tho candidates of tho
Domocratlc party. This Ib as it should
bo but it scorns bard to kcop tho Idea
of tho socrot ballot which Is for the
eloctlon, from being confusod with
the party ballot which Is for tho
primary.
Acting Judge Tllllo Blankonburg
says she can toll a catfish from a bull
head In throe dlfforont ways. That Is
sho knows tbroo ways and It she wero
to catch a six-Inch fish sho would
examine In each of tho throo dlfforont
ways and If It was , a ca'tflsh sho
would throw it back iuto tho wntor
and if It wero a bull head sho might
not. Tho last gamo warden to ap-
poar In hor court told hor. that a cat
fish is inoro or losa transparent It
held up to tho light but a bull head
Is opaque. Ho said tho catfish has
a woll defined lino botween tho head
and body but tho bull head has not,
and also tho head of tho cat fish is
inoro or less soft whllo tho head of
tho bull head Is bony and hard. Cat
fish undor olovon Inches In longth
aro protoctod by .law whllo bull heads
aro not.
