A case of eggs, reaching a certain Arkansas village for # tYans-shipment to Memphis, was devoured at the Station by stray hogs, said hogs having a habit of hang ing around the depot “The hogs has got a start here eating eggs,” the village postmaster reported, “and they will not quit until they railway are killed or put up, or truck or something put here fo the protection of the mail. Every time we turn our back, the hogs come to the eggs.” That the case is really serious is phis postmaster, attested by the Mem who, commenting on the Arkansan’s re port in forwarding it to Washington, said ‘You will note these ‘hawgs,’ not content with devouring the ‘aigs,’ have also ‘et’ a box of overalls left there.” The combination of hogs eating eggs has led an inven tive genius at the postoffice departmen that perhaps if these animals were ed and ground into minced hams they would be just natural born omelet t to suggest There al seems to be a disposition in some quarters to Mr. Secretary Campbell Bascom Slemp as the horrible Coolidge regime. identity example of President Coolidge takes a walk at 5 o'clock in the morning, Thus he is able to have a look at official Washington when it is sleeping, instead of loafing.

S. forestry service. No, there’s no guarantee of a 100 per cent dividend, but then, the tip is free, and the forestry service says that it is a good one. A generation or so hence there will begin a period of lumber scarcity, the forestry service says. Trees are be- ing consumed today four times as fast as ing, according to E. H. Clapp, who juggles the service. The tip to investors is to buy cut-over and unused ids, which ave abundent in practically all states now 2 to $16 an acre—in fact, Clapp estimates there are 000,000 acres of this land. planted now will yield about 20,000 feet of lum- tistics for > When the h. c. of funiber will be greatest.

The liquid flowed over the sill and down the wall of the big, white building to the basement. It was a disfiguring mark the ink made. It was offensive to the eye and repulsive to cultured tidi- Mess, as everybody knew. But, more than that, it was a damage to very valuable public property. Did the statehouse authorities call in contractors and ask for bids for cleaning away the glaring stain? Yes, they did not. Did they set the janitorial battalion at ‘work on the scarred wall? Not noticeably. On the con- “trary, they suspended the careless clerks from their regu- Jar work and informed them they could have their jobs Yack when the stain had been removed, and not before. ‘So, the young men, with ladders and sponges, and brushes "and cleaning fluids, set about the work of removing the ‘Stains themselves. It was hard and slow work, for record ink is indelible. ' The lesson in responsibility was fine. It was an em- a— message to public employes that public service is not a mere snap and public money and property some- thing to be carelessly and recklessly misused. They do ' things differently in Massachusetts, it is plain. Prudence is the necessary Ingredient in all the virtues, without which they degenerate into folly and excess —Jeremy Collier.

What’s more, the seething, sizzling heat of the season has been no hindrance to this one man’s enthusiasm, and it sparkles and shines e’en as the salt sea fish in the silvery moon. Listen while the wire-grass farmer shouts: “Whoopee for Underwood, the biggest man in the democratic party! ‘He's gwine ter git dat nomination and dat ain’t no lie, and, oh boy, ain't he going to give dem old pubs h—I! Take it from us.’ There! Not only jubilant, but native and convincing. » We trust Mr. Underwood has made note and felt the en- couraging urge of it. Also, we hope he has put the editor of the Wiregrass Farmer ‘down for a postoffice. What “we need in the postal service is more effervescent spirits like this. AN ALTERED SITUATION (From the Everett Herald) British Columbia announces the completion of its last link of paved ¥oad in the Pacific highway. And now it is the state of California that dg lagging.
