The Judge's Busy Day.
A discouraged counselor remarked
to the court, "My poor client is little
likely to get justice done until the
judgment day."
"Well, counsellor," said the judge,
-if 1 have an opportunity I'll plead
for the poor woman myself on that
day."
"Your honor," replied the other,
"will have troubles of your own upon
that day."?iBoston Transcript.

cheef of the deteetertives,
Washington, d. C.
deer sir:?
if jhon dillinger do not decide to
give up and surrender befoar this
peace is printed in the papers, i will
tell you where you all might find him
if you still want to put him under
an arrest.
' "
the ttrst place you all might look
for dillinger is at the polees station
in chicargo, milwaukee, st. paul or
new york; he no doubt plays checkers
with the polees man ever-day at one
of these places,
j if you' do not find him playing
checkers with the oflfisers of the law,
it is possible that he is on the polees
force or is working for the u. s. detectertives,
trying to ketch himself
and get the large reward of uncle
sam.
in case he can't be found amongst
the department of justice otfisers, it
will be a good idea to search all of
the goflf coarses and baseball games
for him, or he mought bo running for
a publick offis in Wisconsin under the
name of jhon dillinger, jr.
i am verry anxious to help you
fetch him up befoar the coarts so
that he mought be tried by his peers,
his daudy do not believe that he has
ever done annything wrong, befoar
he shot annyboddy, he was shot at,
and befoar he robbed anny banks,
they robbed him, as his depossit of
4$ was in a bank out west when it
closed.
it is possible that dillinger mought
be in hiding on top of the Washington
monument, or pole-setting on the head
of the statute of liberty, or he could
be doing stunts in new york, such as
climbing the empire state or the
chrisler bilding.
if he can't be found at none of
the places referred to herein, he is
possibly staying at the ritz or the
walldorf or the blackstone and registered
under an assumed name?
something like jhon dillinger or jhon
dillinger or mebbe jhon dillinger. i
will write or foam more instructions
later on.

COOLING OFF
..Last Saturday afternoon while the
thermometer was trying to tickle 100
under the chin in the shade, I piled
my family into our installment plan,
and rode out to the best swimming
pool this side of the Atlantic ocean.
..After paying the usual entrance
fee, we got our 3 younguns dolled up
in their 10-cent store bathing suits,
and me and the boss sat on the bank
and watched our offsprings covort in
The water.
.. Mothers are wonderful. I did not
know before that a woman could keep
2 eyes on .8 different objects all at
the same time .... Constantly, without
a bat or a wink for 58 minutes,
but that is exactly what she (meaning
her) did.
. .Well, Ma sat there and instructed
the kids in this manner: "Honey?
please hold your nose when you jump
off that plank. Don't get water in
your eyes, Sugar Pie. come back?
that's too deep. Are you cold, Darling?"
..And on the suggested: "Lookout,
your bathing suit is about to come
off. Sweetheart, please don't slide
down that thing backwards. What in
the world would happen to you if it
had a nail or a splinter in it? It
would rip you open from one end to
the other. Oh, Mercy! Look at Agie;
she's in water over her head.
..What kind of place is this nohow?
Only 4 life-savers on duty. What in

Effective Use Of
Contracted Acres
Effective use of approximately 10
million acres retired from production
of surplus crops under the agricultural
adjustment programs is indicated
by a survey being made by the
replacement crops section of the Agricultural
Adjustment Administration.
The survey shows that in the south
the majority of acres retired from
cotton production have been planted
to home food feed crops, while
soil improving and erosion preventing
crops are reported on nearly all
the rest of the rented cotton land..
In South Carolina, about two-thirds
of the cotton contracted acreage was
planted to corn and hay and forage
crops for home food and feed use;
one-third to erosion-prevention and
soil-improvement crops such as cowpeas,
soybeans, and Bermuda grass,
according to state agronomists and
field observers of the replacement
crops section.
In other words, a major shift from
excess acreage of surplus crops hack
to balanced conditions which exist6d
I before price depressing supluses beigan
to pile up is being accomplished
by farmers, who are using the contracted
land to increase acreage of
soil improving und erosion preventing
crops, und crops for home use.
Commenting on the shift to u less
intensive type of farming brought
about by farmers cooperating in the
adjustment program, J. F. Cox, chief
of the replacement crops section,
says, "Soil fertility, maintenance, and
improvement are being advanced;
erosion losses are being reduced; labor
costs are more evenly distributed
and reduced by proper balance; and
production costs are lessened."
Chicago police have recovered $87,000
worth of jewels stolen from Mrs.
Adolph Zukor, while she and a maid
were asleep in a Chicago hotel. The
robbery was planned by two women,
both of whom, with four men are under
arrest.
from drowning if they were to all get
strangled to death at the same time.
Oh, me?Oh My; Baby, please swim
towards mama. Precious, listen: hold
on to that inner tube.* Luckily, none
of our children got drowned.
. .Personally, I let "Ma" do the keeping
up with my boys and girls. I was
too busy taking in the sights. Some
of the bathing suits were so abbreviated
that I had to get a little closer
once or twice to see if the girls were
actually in the nude, but they weren't
dog-gone-it-all. Several of the best
looking lassies actually went into the
water. Women are funny animals;
they won't wear a pair of stockings
down town with a run in them, butthey'll
parade right in front oC. tne.
public almost without embarassrfr^nt
or anything else on. \
FROG BOSTICK vs KII) GREASON
(Prize-fight)
..a big prize fight was hell in flat
rock last friday night under the auspecees
of the fiat rock base ball leege,
and a 7-ending bout was pulled off
fcetwixt kid greason, the light weight
bf cedar lane, and frog bostick, the
wilter-weight of flat rotm.
..the rirtg was made in the center of
the publick square and it was a
round ring instead of a square ring,
and had 3 ropes instead of 2 ropes,
and it was empired by yore corryspondent,
mr. mike Clark, rfd. judd
Clark was bell-ringer and budd Clark
was whistle blower, while pete and
skeet Clark were judges.
..the aspirants got into the ring and
hopped around enduring the first ending
and neither one of them got
struck anywheres, the secont started
with a stiff upper cut to the jaw of
frog by kid and it stunted him for a
minnet and made 'him swallow his
'chaw of tobacker, when the whistle
blowed, he had him on the ropes.
..the third ending passed without noboddy
getting anny hard licks, but
. kid claimed that irog pwrwYred to
in the stummick below his belt with
his knee and that was equal to a foul,
but the empire did not notice it, as
he was looking at 2 girls in the audience
who was setting on the grandstand
verry careless.
..enduring the fifth ending, frog
fetched a strong right to kid's left
ear, and landed him against the ropes
which broke and he fell in the lap of
lige perknson's wife and lige got
mad. him and kid passed several
heavy licks before the empire could
sepparate them, he was pushed back
into the ring and the ropes were
mended.
..the sixth ending started off with
a bang when kid banged frog in the
eye and closed same up and blood
squirted out of his nose, as soon as
he got it wiped with a towel handed
to him by one of the judges, and he
made a dive at kid and kicked him a
terrible blow to his right hip agd he
took the count up to 26 and then got
up, but was too wobbly to fight anny
longer, he was counted down and out,
and frog was givven a tecknical
knockout, time 2 hours and 55 minnets,
proceeds, 2$.
