Order Any Amendment
You Want
They are trying to pass an
amendment to keep children
from working. Now children
didn’t want to work, but they got
tired waiting for somebody else to
do it. If they would just put
through an amendment to MAKE
grown people all work, there
would be no need to have this
children one. Grown people stop
ped working without an Amend
ment or even a reason, so it will
take more than an Amendment
to start them. It will take a
Miracle.
1 hey are going to pass another
Prohibition Amendment, some
body mislayed the rules of the
other one. The 19th amendment
made Women vote, some amend
ments make us do somethin ; and
some keep us from it. No. 2i will
give men with Knee Breeches the
vote. About the 25th Amendment
will prohibit smoking and when
they do, ‘Bull’ Durham will boot
leg for a dollar a sack. (I knew I
would get that Ad worked in
there somewhere.)
r.S. I'm going to write some more pieces
that will appear in this paper. Keep look

KIRWAN’S GOOD BAD-EGGS.
(By Holt County’s Poet Laureate.)
Have you heard about Mike and his
bad-egg bait
That’s so wonderfully tempting,
that the fish can’t wait?
And how, when you use it, on reaching
the shore,
They flop ’round on the bank just
looking for more?
These are not eggs which were an
ciently layed.
What you get from Mike are all
hand made,
And worthy the pittance he asks in
gold;
They're the best bad eggs that ever
was sold.
Now Mike has faith in his bad-egg
ware,
And you can not blame him for
giving it air;
But he should be careful to specify,
That all but pickerel and bass pass
by.
Why! The bass comes up with a cheer
ful grin
And immediately take the bad-egg
in,
Then prances off like he had some
thing good
Never suspecting Mike made it of
wood.

WOMAN’S CLUB ACTIVITIES.
The programs of the different de
partments in the Woman’s Club have
been unusually interesting and in
structive during the month of March.
The study of Hamlet in the Depart
ment of Literature more than satis
factory, in that it was not only a study
of the play itself, but was entered into
by nearly all the members, and dis
cussed freely. Mrs. Templeton was
leader. The Review was given by
Mrs. Willis Barker, was a wonderful
example of what a real review should
be, clear and concise. The discussion
was led by Mrs, James J. Harrington
and Mrs. William J. Biglin, both of
whom showed much study and re
search, of the play, the story and the
characters. Nearly all present took
part in the discussion, and it is a
matter of regret that more members
were not present,
_.»W art subject, A Reading from
Homer—Alma Tadema, was discuss
ed by Miriam Giliit'an> and was ex
ceedingly interesting.
The program on Interior decoration
in the Department of Home Econo
mics, was, like all the programs of
that department, greatly enjoyed, and |
was most profited to Homekeepers.
Mrs. Timlin leader, and the fol
lowing program was carried ou>
Floor coverings, Mrs. Wise. Care of
oak floors; Mrs. Cowperthwaite. Care
of Pine Floors, Mrs. Mefconough
Walls and Windows, Mrs-. Malone.
Each of these ladies showed them
selves thoroughly conversant with
their subjects, and presented them in
a most practical manner to their
hearers.
In the Music Department, the two
forms of music to be studied were The
Senata, and the Mazurka. Mrs. Ryan
was leader. The Sonata Pathetique
was taken up and discussed by Mrs.
Brennan, who played the Adagio
Movement in her own charming way.
The Mazurka was demonstrated by
Mrs. Reardon; she played Godard’s
Second Mazurka, to the delight of
her audience. To add to the pleasure
of the program, Miss Agnes Carr
sang, “The Gypsy Trail,” which was
well received. Miss Carr has a very
charming voice, and it is always a
pleasure to hear her sing.

STATE SENATE.
Lincoln, Nob., March 24, 1925.
The Senate co*nmitte on Highways,
Bridges and Perries have changed the
Hotue bills on the gasoline tax and
automobile license so the counties will
get 70 per cent of all the automobile
license money paid in the counties, to
be used bn the country roads, not
state and federal aid highways, and
the Department of Public Works gets
30 per cent, afid vfith this 30 per cent,
and if this is not sufficient, a small
part of the gasoline tax, they must
maintain all the state and federal aid
roads in this state and relieve the
county boards of this maintenance.
me gasonne tax an goes to tne de
partment of Public Works and will
be used to meet federal aid and will
all he apportioned back to the counties
on the same basis as such funds are
now apportioned and will be used to
finish the construction of the system
of highways now laid out. A part
will be used to pay the cost of admin
istration.
It is not generally understood how
large an amount the automobile tax
is, but it amounts to about $4,000,
000.00 each year in this state, and if
70 per cent of this is used on the mail
and market roads leading up to the
several towns in every county, it
ought to give us a good foundation
for some real road benefit. When
these bills pass the Senate they will
have to go back to the House for their
consideration and approval and I can’t
tell yet what will happen. And other
changes may be made by the House
or a conference committee.
The bill to reduce automobile
licenses has not been considered in the
Senate yet, and with 70 per cent of
this money coming back to be used on
the farm to market roads, there prob
ably will be no reduction in the license
fee.

The arrival of the advance guard
of Charley Martin’s flock of domesti
cated mallards at the Martin ranch on
Waller’s Lake, near Beaver Flats, the
first of the week, is taken as an indi
cation by local weather prophets of
an early spring.
The ducks winter each year on a
bayou on the farm of Mr. Martin’s
brother-in-law in Louisiana. For
several years the brothers-in-law have
exchanged greeting by carrier duck
annually, and in compliance with this
custom the lead drake of the return,
ing flock bore attached to its leg a
communication from Mr. Martin’s
Southern relative, stating that large
numbers of the waterfowl which win
ter in the South already were winging
their ways northward. The letter also
stated that the flock last fall arrived
at its winter home without the loss
of a single member.
The Martin flock of migrating birds
is the result of an amalgamation “be
tween the tame ducks raised on the
Martin ranch and the mallard drakes
of the wild fowl which summer on the,^
lake. It has progressed to such an
extent during the last few years that..,
now all of Mr. Martin’s ducks can fly
and follow the custom of their wild
sires in wintering in warmer climes,
but yet continue to nest and rear their
young about the buildings and in the
pens on the Martin ranch, where they
are pretected from hunters.
canopy top. the Company is now of
fering a stake body which may easily
be converted into a platform of good
proportions. Provisions also are made
for use of cattle and grain sides so
that it fills may requirements.
The Fordson, first introduced as a
farm implement, is now filling many
industrial power requirements when
used with special equipment and con
tractors, road builders and manufact
urers are finding new uses for it right
along.
The special display will continue
over Saturday and The Mellor Motor
Company’s show rooms will be open
every evening until 9 o’clock.
DECLAMATORY CONTEST.
The High School Declamatory Con
test was held Friday, March 20th.
About two hundred were present, and
from all reports, they enjoyed the pro
gram fully.
Eli Abdouch, Harold Hough,
Richard Morrison and Cyril Hirsch
were entered in the extemporaneous
division; this was won by Richard
Morrison, Eli Abdouch being second.
In the Oratorical class, Harold
Hough was first, and Edith Sexsmith
second. In the Dramatical division,
Elsie Longstaff won first place and
Marguerite Hough second.
In the Humorous division, Ardis
Downey and Ruth Scott tied for first;
the two contstants drew for the
honor of representing the school in
the Elimination Contest April 3rd, and
Ardis Downey won this honor.
The judges of the contest were
County Superintendent, Anna Dono
hoe, Sister Etheldretta and Clifford
Scott. The work done by the con
testants was very good and in some
classes very close decisions were
necessary. Much of the success of the
contest and the splendid work done by
contestants is due to tola Purcell, who
assisted in coaching and in the select
ion of readings for the contestants.
HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
At the High School Inter-Class

What Woman Would Throw Pearls Away?
of course, no woman would throw away a perfectly good rope
of pearls.
But mapy women throw away something more priceless than
pearls when they squander their beauty, their time, and their ^
health doing the family washing.
It not only coarsens a woman’s hands, but it wastes a day every *
week, and it is a steady drain on her energies. If v>men were (
meant for such heavy labor, there would be woman blacksmiths
and stokers, for even these tasks burn up no more energy than a j
hard day’s work at the tub.
Save the pearls of beauty time and health by telephoning us ■
to call for your weekly bundle. We will do all the washing and
part or all of the ironing.
