affinity for dirt. Good, clean soil is

Doll wives who were never taught to
work; doll men who, if forced by stern
necessity to work, wear themselves out
searching for soft jobs—the world is
full of them. Let John and Mary have
their small tasks now, and they will
grow up to be workers instead of
shirkers; lifters instead of leaners;
blessings instead of burdens to this
old world.—Child-Welfare Magazine.

P. T. A. Meeting
About thirty were present at yes
terday’s meeting. After a beautiful
solo by Mrs. Roy Walker, the audi
ence was addressed by Rev. A. G.
Shriver on “The Psychology of the
^Dljild,” and in the course of the talk
many interesting and helpful sugges
tions were made for the proper train
ing of children.
All are asked to respond to roll call
at the next and final meeting of the
year, with some suggestion of a topic
they wish to have discussed in next
year’s meetings.

expressed the warmest appreciation of
this courtesy extended them.

A LITTLE NONSENSE
Cutting Out the Slang Stuff.—“You
don’t talk like a college graduate, Mr.
%pink.”
“No. I’ve gradually broken myself
of the '^abit by cultivating people who
speak good English.”—Brownings.
A Sore Spot with Him.—The teacher
was addressing his pupils on the sub
jects of laziness and idleness.
He drew a terrible picture of the
habitual loafer—the man who dislikes
to work and who begs for all he gets.
“Nowr, John,” said the teacher to
a little boy who had been very inat
tentively during the lesson.
John was instantly on the alert.
“Tell me,” continued the teacher,
“who is the miserable individual who
gets clothes, food and lodging, and
yet does nothing in return?”
John’s face brightened.
“Please sir,” said he, “the baby.”—
Ladies’ Home Journal.
What a Pity!—An untraveled coun--!
tryman once treated himself to a trip
1 to London. There for the first time
in his life he saw a schoolgirl go
through her gymnastic exercises for
the amusement of the little ones with
whom she was playing.
After gazing at her with looks of in
terest and compassion for some time,
he asked a boy near by if she had fits.
“No,” replied the boy; “them’s gym
nastics.”
“Ah, how sad!” said the man. “How
long’s she had ’em?”
Pennant Winners—The centaurs
were creatures with the head and
arms of a man and the body of a
horse.
Billy (the Ty Cobb of his team):
Gee! What a combination for battin’
and base runnin’!
He Forgot His Excuse—On John
l ny’s first day at school he was given
a registration card on which his
mother was to write his birth record.
The following day he arrived late
—
and without the registration slip.
“Johnny,” said the teacher, “you
must bring an excuse for being late,
and don’t forget the slip about when
you were born.”
All out of breath next day Johnny ;
rushed in, holding a note from his j
mother.
“Teacher,” he gasped, “I brought the
one about being late, but I forgot
my excuse about being born.”
A Practical Prayer—Nancy was
saying her prayers. “And, please
God,” she petitioned, "make Boston
the capital of Vermont.”
“Why, Nancy!” exclaimed her
shocked mother, “What made you say
that?”’
“ ’Cause I made it that way on my
examination papers today and I want
it to be right.”—American Legion
Weekly.
His Reason—The School Nurse—
“Did you open both windows in your
sleeping room last night as I
ordered?”
Pupil—“No, ma’am, not exactly.
There’s only one window in my room,
but I opened it twice.”
" f'
Practical Demonstration—Mr. Moy
er—“I’ve got it in my head, but I
can’t explain it.”
Sense If Not Experience—Farmer
—“So you’ve had some experience,
have you?” Youth—“Yes, sir. Far
mer—“Well, what side of a cow do
you sit on to milk?” Youth—“The
outside.”
Two Good Reasons—“Willie, why
dont you keep your hair combed?”
Willie—“ ’Cause I ain’t got no comb.”
Teacher—-“Why don’t you ask mama
to buy you one?” Willie—“ ’Cause
then I’d have ter keep my hair
combed.”
Perhaps He Was Right—A novel
reason for discipline was that vouch
safed by a child whose school record
was a grief to his parents. “Tommy,”
said his teacher, one day, in despair,
“why do I have to scold you so
much?” “ ’Cause you get sort o’
fretful keeping school.” was the evi
dently honest and quite unexpected
reply.

TO THE
REPUBLICAN
VOTERS
WHAT I STAND FOR:
I am a candidate for National Com
mitteeman of the Republican party, to
i be elected April 27, and I stand for
the following principles:
I am not a politician, and never ran
for office before. I belong to no po
litical machine or combine, and am
under obligations to no clique or fac
tion.
I am opposed to machine domina
tion in Alaska, and if you elect me I
will take my orders from the people
and nobody else.
While my home is in Anchorage, !
where I received the unanimous in
dorsement of the Anchorage Repub- I
lican Club, composed of over one hun- |
dred and fifty members, I will work
for the entire Territory of Alaska |
first, last and all the time.
If you elect me I will do my utmost
to see that each locality or division
shall name the officers of that locality
or division, and I will fight bitterly
the appointment of anyone outside of
Alaska to an Alaska office.
Alaska has been my home for 23
years, winter and summer, and I feel
sure I know what Alaska needs.
The time has come to put an end
to outside dictation in our affairs, and
I believe what Alaska needs is more
firesides and fewer carpetbaggers.
The only way to rid Alaska of ma
chine politicians is to vote against
them. People of Alaska, I am making
this fight for these principles, and I j
want your help. You deliver the votes
and I will deliver the goods.
JACK CHOVIN.
