Why not try George Lockwood of the Republican national committee? They might come handy in the next parade in most any other state than Mississippi. Judge Persons, of Moultrie. Okla- . homa, has decided that Herbert Han «iist<*r has a right to spank his wife after she had slapped his mother. That may be a dangerous precedent to write in the court records. Perhaps the mother-in-law was telling her how to bake pies like she used to bake. The proiKwed improvements look ing towards paved approaches to the city of Decatur are worth while and v< ry important. Most cities seem to have neglected this. They build fine roads in the country and good streets in the cities and then tor som, reason or another permit a strip which connects them to go uuimprov ed. Those petitioned for here ar< needed and will complete a splendit system of roads and streets. If you drive an automobile it may save you money and much trouble i‘ you read carefuly the new acts regu Jating you. Whether it is best or nol whether you agree with those wh< passed the law or not, its the law anti if you violate it you are liable tc the punishment provided. It's alwayt best to l>e careful and of course that's the purpose of the new acts. One of the provisions is that providing for lights which are just right, not too : bright and not too dim. Better read them over. Elwood Haynes. 68, inventor of th' ' osi*.-*'.-. Kokomo, Indiana. Thirty-one year' ago he produced a gas buggy in ordet to travel over his territory as an oil line man ami kept it going most ol the time at a rate of eight miles an hour. From his success came the modern automobile and Mr. Haynes had much to do with its progress. His first car is now exhibited in Smith onian Institute at Washington. Mr Huyt’es was born in Portland and for many years has been a leading citi zcli of the state, building up a large factory at Kokomo. He was a great man and bis name will go down in history along with others who have produced inventions which revolution ized thin country. Madge Oberholtzer is field and D.

Inbiting the use of open mufflers on automobiles came as the result ot arrests made by a state policeman. The two men eon v icted were arrested outside the limits of Indianapolis. Formerly the law permitted motorists to make all the noise in the world if they were in the rural districts, but the new law, now effective, protects the nerves of the country dwellers as well as those of the urban citizens. The muffler miiaam e is not confined to the country by any means. Practically every day and particularly every night the roar ot the exhaust can be beard in Indianapolis. Boys equip flivvers with racing bodies and tear about the streets, imagining they are. driving race cars at the speedway, and making as much noise as if they were on the track. Trucks are operated with tho muffler open. Motorcycle policemen often go roaring by, muffler open and the air filled with the noise of pursuit when there is no pursuit. The law against opctuiuufflers in cities and towns has been in effect for years, but only rarely is it enforced. The, state police have shown that it can be enforced. and they hive been instructed to arrest all violators, regardless -of the nature of the offense. that'the law Is being enforced in the ktpsntry, where It is new, there ' teems no reason why it should not I ra ■ 11 be jpnforced m the city, where it is old..

HOW HAPPY THE LIFE OF A BIRD MUST BE A little bird sat high in a tree She '.seemed as happy as should could be She hopped and chirped and danced in glee How pleasant Ibc life of a bird must be. She built a Dpst so nice and neat And she curried straws in her little feet She worked and chirped the whole day long Hut yet she sung that same sweet song. High up in the top of the old oak tree She laid the eggs, one, two, three And she hopped and chirped and danced in glee How happy the life of a bird must be. The eggs were speckled us they could be r The tiniest egg syou ever did see No harm will come to them so wee Eor they’re clear in the top of the old oak tree. And now the wind rocks all day long Three tiny birds birdti so safe from harm And soon'they will chirp and dance in glee How pleasant the life of a bird must be. —Mrs. Mary M. Boyd.
