he pulled out a channel cattish that
weighed just a triile over ;o pounds.
It was carried up Main street hy two

men's shoulders. The tish 's tail trail
ed on the ground, its gills touching the
pole on the shoulders of the men. The

people to Lorenz Bro.'s butcher shop,

dozen small boys and young men m iy
be seen hanging on the various cars
and jumping on and off while t he train
is moving rapidly. Some day one of
these boys will be carried home minus
a couple of legs or an arm. The train
crews and the police can't keep these
boys off the cars. The parents must
doit. They should do it for their own
ease of mind and for their children's
good. A sound licking administered
now may save that boy a couple of very
useful limbs.
