CANADIAN
Nestling on a pretty hill that
slopes upward from the yellow
willow-fringed banks of the South
Canadian river is the pretty little
city of Canadian, Texas. Dunno
whether you Ozarkians are inter-
ested in the psychology of names
or not, but you should be, for
there is a th-ill in our own cog-
nomen—Ozark Life. Arcadia—
Ironton — Sp: ingdale — Eureka
Springs—Kingston! Why. there
is charm in every one of these
names. So, when, the iron horse
steamed along through the Pan-
handle in the direction of Cana
dian, I was curious to see if the
town lived up to its name. '
Which it does—not in the sense
of the suggestion, of My Lady of
the Snows, but because it is a
beautiful town on the banks of
its namesake river. Some fine
churches and an imposing high
school building are among the
physical assets, and there are
some homes there that would
grace any city of 20,000 popula-
tion. Prof. C. R. Roberts is the
efficient superintendent of the
school, and the student body is
composed of a fine group of am-
bitious young men and women
who exhale the joy of living in
their every walk.—Thos. Kirov
Lucy, in Ozark Life.
RIFFLE AND RUFFLE

Mrs. C. 0. Johnson entertained

popular rumber. A wedding. i3
always interesting and the one

The men will be very graceful in
the latest creation of feminine
dress. There will also appear

the famous K. C. Orchestra. No
one will want to miss this oppor-
tunity of hearing these %vonderful
musical numbers played by such
an accomplished group of musi-
cians. There will be other inter*
esting numbers on the program

Well. Sir, the estimable, worthy.
And sometimes prevaricating.
Groundhog emerged from.
His underground castle.
Tuesday morning for the.
purpose of making.
Investigations into the.
Weather hereabout?; and to.
.Set,- whether or not he could.

k f kfi pi, ii It^^ it
Well, if the gentleman came.
Out at twelve o'clock, sharp.
As those who worship him.
Claim that he does, or any.
Time earlier than 3:00 o'clock
He had to bring a lantern.
With him in order to get.
A grimpse of a shadow.
And, according to the Indian.
Tradition, the worst part.
Of the winter is past, and.
You may now begin* to plant.
Gardens, corn patches, etc.
Without fear that they will.
Be nabbed by Jack Frost.
As there are no Groundhogs.
In this section, we suppose.
That the Prairie Dog has to.
Do the work of a Groundhog.
For us. and as he is such an.
C nreliable fellow, we would.
Advise you to continue.
Shoveling coal in the furnace.
And not pull off your.
'Heavies" until sometime.
Later, when the "First.
Robin" makes his appearance.
And even then, it would.
Be best to make him show.
His credentials, and be.
Positive he is not a "Lyre.
Bird.
Some people have already.
Been remarking on what a.
Mild winter we have had.
As though all danger of.
Real, mean, cold, disagreeable.
Weather were already past.
Well, we certainly hope that
Winter is over, but there.
Will be lots of time to crow.
After we get out of the.
Woods, as Solomon says.
And a? we always miss,
Our predictions, we wish.
To arr.our.ee here and now.
That we are in for some.
Sho nuff wintah, and if.
