A Wise Qld Man.
We were told the other day that
we was a sucker and we are almost
convinced that it is true , says the
editor of the Bluejacket News. A
wise old farmer produced an arg
ument that , try as we would , we
rould not answer. He began on
why we insist on people patroniz
ing the home town. He says when
he comes to town he notices big
printed bills along the highways
that were printed away from home
and they were supposed to be ucl-
vertiSing a sale that was going on
riirht here in town , and when he
gets to town he writes a check and
notices it is printed away from
home , he buys his goods and gets
a bill and sees it is printed in an
other town , and he notices that
every fake advertising scheme that
comes along is well patronized.
Now , why don't you preach to your
business men awhile , and give us
farmers a rest ? If our business
men set an example yon connot
blame the farmers for following
up. It looks as though the editor
was playing the part of the sucker.

A realistic picture of life in the
far west will be the offering at
Church's opera house Nov. 14 ,
under the title of "The Flaming
Arrows" . The play is not , as
npght naturally be expected , a
blood and thunder production ,
abounding in guu shots and other
hair raising episodes , unpleasant
to the audience , but is a faithful
picture of life on the frontier and
in one of the famous government
posts. It tells a beautiful love
story , is replete with thrilling
scenes , and its characters are all
taken from living prototypes , true
in character and costume. As
"The Old Homestead" is the typi
cal play of the old east , so is "The
Flaming Arrow'5 of the far west.
Lincoln J. Carter is the author
and producer and critics unani
mously concede it to be his best
i production. To add local color
I and realism a tribe of real indians
j is carried , also several ex-United
! States soldiers , cowboys , horses
land brass band , which will give a
( band concert before the perform
ance.
