The Nardin Star tells this
stjpjy of the difficulty of compell-
ing a Tonkawa Indian to work out
his polBtatfi1 '‘“Ixapitan worked
about fifteen minutes and then
struck for a four-hour day This
was granted In ‘another fifteen
minutes he struck again for lem-
onade to drink instead of water
This -was allowed Then the
street commissioner got a gun
and told Ivap the striking season
was over So Kap worked until
noon Just as the school bell
rang for 12 o’clock' Kap ran a 2 9-
penny nail through his foot The
boss wanted to pull it out but
Kap said “No you don’t not in
the noon hour wait until one
o’clock’’ Kap had a sunstroke
in the afternoon but otherwise
he got through the day very
pleasantly
Speaking of the good old times
the Emporia Gazette wonders
what has become pf the fine tooth
comb that was always on the top
shelf of the bureau in the boy’s
room in the dear dead days be-
yond recall Vhafehas become
of theTine tooth coijb? The dis-
grace that used tricorne over the
household when the fine tooth
comb was called Into action nev-
er visits the family now Why?
Have they become extinct or
have they joined the star of em-
pire which is moving so majesti-
cally ' westward? There is no
doubt that they are passing The
world is surely better than it was
in the good old days
According to an opinion “-f the
commissioner of th ' v laud
'office l-: i i esch O £i e in
section 13 Ln any township can
not relinquish so another person
can file The enabling act pro-
vides that sections 13 and 33 re-
vert to the government and then
to the state of Oklahoma The
only way to alienate land in these
sections is first to obtain a pat-
ent Relinquishments don’t go
While the Alamo is situated in
the city of San Antonio it is the
treasured property of the people
of all Texas There is no Texan
who does not possess in it an in-
terest which he ha4 a legal as
well as a sentimental and patri-
otic right to assert There will
be a general protest and upris-
ing against any scheme to com-
mercialize any part of it
'
When you meet aman who is
Unfortunate kick him or when
you see a cripple make fun of
him when a person is in distress
and appeals to you refuse his re-
quest It is dikely that you may
be in the same boat yourself some
day and you won’t know how
nice it is until you have tried it
