THIER DADS! e —————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— LIGHT OCCUPATIONS Taking the “helm” away from “Wil- helm”. Putting more “go” into Fargo. Knocking the last four letters out of Twichell, Brushing the wrong way the “hair” in Herald. Cultivating “Between the Rows". Explaining the joke in the second sylla- ble of Norman. Taking the “pay” out of some people's patriotism. * * » “WELL”, SAID THE LASSOED ANIMAL TO THE TRIUMPHANT COWBOY, “I GUESS YOU SLIPPED ONE OVER ON ME THAT TIME.” * * * Whatever we may think about the patriotism of the leaders of the Irish rebellion, we will all have to— admit that the movement itself was a “Pat riot.” * * * ‘Wilhelm II will be properly number- ed after the war. He's going to come out second best in this fight. * » * THE GEORGE AT THE HEAD OF AFFAIRS IN ENGLAND IS BY NO MEANS KING GEORGE; HIS FIRST NAME HAPPENS TO BE LLOYD. * * * a man or a movement has \its worth even adverse * * * do actually work both ways—for ir{stance it is difficult to show a man $§ UP without calling him “After thel War” is an expression used about fas much in conversa- tion nowadalys as “After the Ball” was used in §ong a few years ago. The Kaiser will bear in mind that the ball lasted’\unti] the break of a new day; this’ war will last that long too. Hey/, Wilhelm, do you see any signs ¢f morning? IR » SOMETIMES THOSE WHO ARE THE MOST RESPONSIVE ARE THE LEAST RESPONSIBLE. * 'x » The League is ¢rganizing in thirteen states. Many Standpatters will be more superstitious than ever after the next election. & » ~.Spread it on Norm—you are only “greasing your Plank for oblivion”! T, A - * - q Stepping ' suddenly from .dark- ness into lightis bad for the eyes; both the Forum and the Herald lost their eye-s‘grt in that way. * * In a small town south-of Beach last fall, an elevator m:n dumped a farm- _er's horse into the pit along with the load. Making all alowances for pro- fessional habits, still that seems to be taking a little too much of a toll. . » 3 BACON AND BLACK About all that is \left of the Goo- Gooes are the Bee-Bee ‘wins, Jerry and Norman. Why Boys Leave the Farm Why did you leave the farm, my lad, why did you bolt and quit your dad? Why did you beat it off to town and turn your poor old father down? The platform, pulpit, and the press are wallowing in deep distress. They seelk to find the hidden cause why farmer boys desert their pas. Some say they long to get a taste of faster life, and social waste; some say the silly little chumps mistake the suit cards for the trumps, so wager fresh and germless air against the smoky thoroughfare. We’re all agreed the farm’s the place, so loosen up and state your case! Well, stranger, since you’ve been so frank, I’ll roll aside this hazy bank—this mystic cloud of theories—and show you where the trouble is. I left my dad, his farm and plow, because my calf became his cow! I left my dad—’twas wrong of course—because I left my dad to sow and reap, be- - cause my lamb became his sheep! I threw my hoe and stuck my fork because my pig became his pork! The garden truck I nursed so well was mine to hoe, but his to sell! atmosphere nor taste for ‘‘life’’ that brought me here! Go tell your pulpit, platform, press, no fear of toil nor love of dress is IT’S MORE THE METHODS OF .—how'd’like It’s not the smokey J.E.T. MOTHER GOOSE UP-TO-DATE There is a Steel trust, and some more Steal trusts, too, They make so much money, it never will do, But a war profits tax, if it's made good and stiff, Will give all these trusts a well-deserv- ed biff. * * » Old Doctor Congress hesitates about putting plasters on swollen incomes. * * * AND REMERBER THAT OLD ONE: “WHICH IS HEAVIER, A TON OF LEAD OR A TON OF FEATH- ERS?” * »* * There was a bold man named Keren- sky, Who started a Russian offensky, And got it well started But when he departed The soldiers fled back to their tentsky. » * » Why, hello John! Scarcely knew you Washington? Found a house to rent yet? Jimminy, how Yyou've changed, taking on polish faster than a cow-hide shoe! Does Saint Paul look small to you? When you going back? Want some company sent down there, hey? Well, they’re coming! Take keer- o’yourself, Good-bye, John, tell everybody you saw us! * * . % “IT'S NEVER TOO LATE TO MEND.” THIS AXIOM APPLIES TO SOILED AND TORN SHEETS—WE HAVE IN MIND THE FORUM AND THE DISPATCH. 5 * * * LIGHT OCCUPATIONS Filling- editorial columns with stolen material. Trying to deform reformers. Questioning the patriotism of po- litical opponents. Blaming farmers for untoward remarks of Wisconsin senators. Belittling the part of the non- partisan. Shaking in your stand-pat polit- ical shoes in Minnesota. Worrying about the strength of the League nine months before the Minnesota primary. Pointing out non-existent wran- gles between the League and the Union in South Dakota. * * | o* IT IS CONSOLING TO KNOW THAT IN RUSSIA AT LEAST THE OLD NICK HAS BEEN PUT OUT OF BUSINESS. * * * ‘We don’t worry about libels and mis- representations; . we expose and fight them. ; * * * The scriptural statement, “Where a man’s treasure is, there his heart is also,” does not apply. to the man with a new set of gold teeth. * * * Copying editorials from the New York World without giving credit is about as safe as using a cannon ball’ for a paper weight. > * * * “Back to the soil” has had a new meaning and a new impetus since Ten million goes the August, 1914, tally up to date.
