THE WISE OLD OWL TOLD ME
Billy had just beqn presented with
a fine violin by his daddy and was
soon to begin taking lessons. He
fondled and examined the new instru
ment carefully. The two funny little
openings beneath the strings of the
violin interested him greatly.
“Daddy what are these two holes
here for? It seems to me the sound
would be better if there weren’t any
holes at all,”
As usual, the Wise Old Owl was on
• hand and interrupted before Billy’s
father could even open his mouth to
answer.
“The S-shaped sound-holes are of
the greatest importance in regulating
the tone of the violin. Sodnds depend
upon vibrations of the air, and if the
air in the body of the violin had ro
way of escape the tone would have a
weak and muffled effect.
“In the long history of the violin
various tvpes of sound holes havfi
been tried, but after long and labori
ous experiment, Stradivarius (the
greatest violin mrker in history)
proved this particular shape best, and
for the last two centuries the shape
has been universally adopted.”

1 SNYDER HAS AN OPPONENT.

c Both are After The Coveted Job of
Canal Driver.
i
, (By JOE SNYDER.)
i lam after a big job and I hope to
be elected to the office of canal driv
er on the State's new shipping line.
[ I have been trying to draw the atten
tion of the good people of this coun- 1
ty, especiily the lady voters, (God
! bless them; I wish there were more of
them,) to the fact that I have long
been secretly at work to get this office
’ although I have heard that my old
1 friend Will Ward, was after the same
office. I must say that Mr. Ward is
’ too young, (somewhere in the neigh
borhood of 95 years,) to hold down
& most responsible position as canal
driver. I-have talked to that gentle
man and tried to persuade him out of
, the notion to run or walk for it. He |
tells me that he is as good a demo
crat as I am, a good party man, a
good Bailey man and a good man
anyhow, and that he wants the job,
even if he does wear No. 11 shoes. He
ssys he, wants an office; that he is
bound to have an office as he is tired j
of work and loafing about the coun
try.
There is no doubt but that my com
petitor is a good man, is a handsome
man and there’s where he has got
me beat, if I do say it myself. I am
sorry I was born so out of shape, but
I couldn’t help being born that way,
although I was there at the great ca
lamity. If my ma and pa had been
good looking people, I have no doubt
but I would have been a handsome
man.
I have the advantage of Mr. Ward.
I know Mr. Bailey and I know Mr.
Morrison. He does not, and I have
smaller feet than he has. Besides that
I wash my feet now and then ard
we do not know if he ever washes
his'n.
.Well, be as it may, I am going to
do my darndest to get this job, and
I have enlisted all the ladies in this
section to help me out, and, ugly as
I am, they say they will help me out.
Now, I’ll see wHat my competitor is
going to do, and if he begins to do
too much, then I’ll use the money I
hope to get from the Edwards estate
but have no hope of it. in buying ice
cream, peanuts and such for my con
stituency.

A VERY SAD DEATH.
Contributed. *
It is sad to think that an old 1
man, 75 years old, was found in th
road some 20 hours after leaving
neighbor’s home, stiff and bruised m 1
in the face, head, breast and W?
having lain there through the rain.
This was the case of old Mr. En<H j
i Clark. The writer has not lived jl
Mr. Clark’s neighborhood so long bu
everybody says he was honest and »
harmless old man, having lived \
! bachelor all his life. He was a great
| student of the bible.
I It is not known just.how his death
j occurred, but it is thought that be
! may have dropped dead on Friday
morning, April 4th, just after s
o’clock, catching the rein of the brj.
• die under him as he fell, as he was
leading a mule at the time, and perl
i haps the mule trammeled him under
his feet.
Mr. Clark had left the home of Mr
Fred Thrift about 8 o’clock with but
ter in one hand, which was found un
der him and a bucket of milk in the
other hand; this was also found near
i his body. A sack of com that he had
on the mules back was also nearbv.
The mule returned to Mr. Thrift’s
Saturday at noon and it was thought
by those that gathered to look for
him, that he died of *iaturtl causes
so no inquest was held.
While Mr. Clark was not a church !
member he lived honest ?nd cnarit- \
able toward his fellow man.
His remains were laid in the cem
etery at Emmaus Baptist church Sun*
day morning at 11 o’clock.
Mr. Clark leaves one brother, Mr.
Jim Clark, of near Little Hadlev
Mills other relatives ' ,
Young nor old know neither the
