Tires for a Seagrave. | That’s a pretty deep subject, alright. The councilmen are all tired of the subject and even the air in the coun- | cil chambers has a tired feeling. —Give It A Rest— | i Its About Time. To start howling about the coal famine we will have next winter. To get the rust off the old spade | and a few kinks in the back. ; For the prohibition officers’ busl-l ness to be running down. | To begin saving a few spare toma-| to cans for that early fishing trip. To be digging out last season’s bathing suit to see if it is still one, piece. { To be telling what lovely winter | weather you enjoyed on your trip to the South. « For you to try to “make the line” in Twentieth Century. Misery loves company. —The Water’s Fine— Goodbye, Excitement. The city council is talking of send- ing the fire truck wheels away to be cut down for pneumatic tires. What will we do for excitement Sup- posing it takes two months to get them fixed. When the tires are away the fires will play. —~Call 'Em Off— With the Coming of Spring. Some of the recently-uncovered ears look pretty pale and sickly, like the grass one sees on raising an old board sidewalk.—Kansas City Star. Imagine what it looks like when you | crawl under the sidewalk instead of regising it! That's the way some of them probably look, at least, those| that haven't been uncovered yet. —A La Cootle Garage— Going Still. A man in Minot went to the depot to claim his trunk and when he found it leaking he told the agent he didn’t know whether it was his or not. He left on the run, saying that he would get his wife to identify it. According to the latest word he hasn’t returned. Probably his wife was there to claim | it before he was and they are both| still going. | —A Word to the Wise— Nct So Far Off. At That. A fpw days ago we suggested it ‘was about time to put up the storm entrance to the post office, that day | being in the neighborhood of the first anniversary. It was really meant for a joke, but, after taking the weather into consideration, it wouldn't have been such a bad idea at that. —Spring is Come ? ? ? ?— Doing the Spring Dance.

Pictures Can Be “Seen” by Touch, ls “Of course, the transmission of photographs by wire was thought out | before iy time. But my predecessors, though their theory was all right, | could wot put it into practice. So nothing much came of their work, for an inventor's backers insist on the prompt delivery of the goods. “An inventor can't treat his back- ers as Whistler, the painter, treated his sitters. One of Whistler's sitters, you know, was in a hurry to have her | portrgit. Finally she said: “‘Now, Mr, Whistler, you've been | at work on this portrait of mine a | very long time.

The proposal would allow a fine of $1 to $100 and a sentence of not more than 90 days. The present ordinance places $10 or ten days as the limit for first offense. Motion was carried that the city at- torney draw up an ordinance for soft drink parlors, restricting the licensing of such places and placing a license fee of approximately $25 on each es- tablishment. The city engineer, city attorney and street committee, were instructed to take up the matter of having the railroad crossing on Minnesota ave- nue properly guarded at all times, and this matter will be taken up with the AT DEATH’S DOOR “I was talking with my neighbor, Mr. Webb, the other day, regarding the great trouble his stomach had given him.
