Hunting
I BOUGHT a fine new-fangled gen and said "111 shoot about a ton of rab-
bits owls and jays; with cartridges and kindred gocds 111 roam the prairies
and the woods and thus spend pleasant days. It's long since I have tasted
game; domestic meats are all the same they're tasteless stale and flat; so I
shall wander far and near and shoot a groundhog or a deer a chipmunk or a
cat." So off I strode and I could feel within my breast the Nimrod's zeaLI had
no caitiff fear; but everywhere I went I found on posts or sticking in the
ground this sign "No Hunting Here." I walked about a thousand miles and
saw on fences trees and stiles the same dodgasted signs; and fanners when
they saw me come would say "Keep off my land by gum or you will pay a
fine." Ah it would be pleasant to hunt and do the joyous Nimrod's stunt far
from the madding crowd but for that sign which ruins bliss and is about as
bad as this: "No Trespassing Allowed!" Is there no place where one can take
his nice new gun and shoot a snake a tree toad or a fly and not behold these
signs which say "These grounds are private keep away!" I pause for a reply.

Prizes For Beautiful Yards
. EFORE all appropriations are made from the new budget fund The Herald
wants to renew its suggestion of some time ago that something be set
aside for encouraging people to beautify their yards; something in the way
of prizes that will induce every individual in El Paso to strive for the reward.
Whether the award will be in cash or in the form of a medal or cup can be
determined but a sum of money should certainly be set aside for the purpose.
Whether the contest should be open only to those who start the work next year
or not should be determined but the contest might carry prires for two classes-
one for the finest looking yard in the city regardless of how long it has been in
cultivation and one for the nicest looking yard brought out in a year. First
second third and fourth prizes could be offered in each class say 100 for the
first $75 for the second $50 for the third and $25 for the fourth or an equal
amount invested in cups.
It would be worth the money to El Paso for such prizes ought to make many
El Pasoans strive for them. El Paso can have beautiful yards; this has been
demonstrated so saccessfully that there is no excuse for anything else but in El
Paso as in any city there are many who have not as yet taken advantage of
their opportunity; there are still many yards that need improvement A little
encouragement in the form of some proper recognition of the efforts put forth
ought to increase interest in the work wonderfully.
To some the cash premium would be more of an incentive than a cup; to
others who work with their yards for the pure love of it the cup would be
the more appreciated. The money might be appropriated for the awards and then
distributed in cash or cups as the winners saw fit.
The Herald would suggest a committee composed of we might say the
presidents of the chamber of commerce the Addub the Rotary dub and the
Woman's dub together with the park commissioner as a board of award in
the premises. Every person entering the contest should be allowed to enter at
any time before the awards are made. July 1 next would be a good time to
make the awards. By that time the yards will all be at their best Those enter-
ing the competition could submit their names and addresses any time before the
date for judging and then the committee in an automobile could inspect the dif-
ferent yards in a few hours and make the awards. It is worth trying.
Every beautiful yard in EI Paso is worth many dollars to El Paso and such
a contest would be worth several times as much as the prizes would cost Five
hundred dollars "would cover all the prizes suggested in the two classes; $250 would
cover the amount if prizes were only awarded to the four best yards developed
during the spring and summer of 1915.

Dr James Allen Geissinger former pastor of the First Methodist church in
El Paso recently had an artide in "Out West" under the title "Basiness Is

ccmmerdalized.and is driving out commercialized vice.

Reckless Destruction In War
T
I HE Germans in firing on and wrecking the Reims cathedral slaughtered
many of their own men. The French locked 400 German prisoners in the
place and ran op a white flag over the top but the Germans contended
that the white flag was being misused and bombarded the edifice with its won-
derful art treasures killing many of their own men and setting fire to the historic
structure.
The destruction of historic buildings in France and Belgium is meeting strong
opposition in Germany where the people think there was no necessity lor such wan-
ton work. The Frankfurt ZeiUng a leading German daily some time ago appealed
to its soldiers not to harm these buildings particularly the cathedral at Reims.
"Let us respect the French cathedrals particularly that at Reims which is
one of the finest in the world" said the Zeitung. "Since the Middle Ages it has
teen espedally dear to Germans as Bomberg drew from it inspiration for many
of his figures. We regard these grand churches with veneration and shall respect
them as our forefathers did in 1870."
The German army officials give the excuse that the French were using the
towers of the church for observing movements of the German troops and that its
bombardment was necessary. How did the Germans know this? Where did they
get their information? It is one of the flimsiest excuses yet offered in extenua-
tion of outrageous destruction of property.
War is no babe's amusement; its necessities are stern and it is often neces-
sary to destroy buildings in the course of an attack or a defence but the de-
liberate bombardment of ancient historic places like the Reims Lonvain and
Antwerp cathedrals those at Louvain and Reims have been destroyed by
cannon; that in Antwerp assailed and damaged by aerial bombs is a piece of
mischief that cannot be excused; that the whole world will condemn and one that
cannot be forgiven.

THE evening at the "show" was as
disagreeable as Fanny Hedden
had feared it would be. She had
occasionally gone to the theater with
her grandmother and bad attended va-
rious vaudeville performances of which
the careful matron had approved ac-
companied by acquaintances of her
choosing. It was a new experience
however to be In public with persons
like Stella Jacobs and her brother.
Moreover the place of amusement se-
lected by them was one which Fanny
had never entered before. It was a
music hall of a cheap and gaudy stamp.
Hermann conducted the two girls to a
gallery running around the second story
of the hall and seated them at a small
table then called for a glass of beer
for himself and asked his companions
what they would have.

she. too. would take beer.
"Nonsense!" exclaimed Hermann in
reply to Fanny's declination. "If you
don't like beer have a toft drink."
Fanny colored with embarrassment.
"But I don't want it" she insisted.
"Bring this lady a ginger beer." Her-
mann ordered majestically. 'Ten see"
he explained to her after the waiter
had hurried off to get the three bever-
ages "at a place like this you're sup-
posed to drink something. Itd look as
if you was stuck up If you didn't."
He laughed and Fanny tried to smile.
After all. she told herself the fellow
meant well. It was not his fault that
he was coarse and common. As he was
trying to give her pleasure it was her
dnty to seem appreciative.
Tet when "the drinks" were brought
she did not touch hers for some mo-
ments. Her eyes were fastened on the
stage where a very short-skirted and
decolette young woman was shrieking
a musical atrocity. The orchestra made
such a noise that at first the words did
not reach her comprehension. When
they did. she caught her breath and
glanced at Stella but Miss Jacobs was
laughing so heartily that she thought
that she herself must have been mis-
taken in her Interpretation of the re-
frain in which many of the spectators
joined.
To hide her embarrassment she took
a sip of the over-sweet ginger ale and
tried to appear as if she liked It When
she looked at the stage again the so-
loist had begun another verse of the
song and the orchestra was playing
more softly that the listeners might
not lose the words. They were borne
with painful distinctness to the ears of
the unsophisticated girl In the gallery.
She gasped as the men and women near
her. including her two companions took
np the refrain at the end of the verse
and sang the coarse words lustily and
merrily.
Fanny Begs to Leave Music naiu
"Oh." she whispered to Stella under
cover of the roars of laughter following
the song "what kind of a place Is this?
Do let's go home!"
"Goosle!" exclaimed Stella. "There s
noiarm in being here. The song's fun-
ny that's alL I declare." she murmured
to her brother "if Fanny ain't shocked
by that song!"
Hermann laughed then looked at
Fanny keenly. Her ees were full of
tears and she was biting her lips to
keep them from trembling. With an
effort she met his gare.
"May I go home please" she pleaded
In a low voice
"See here. SteL" Jacobs said turning
to his sister "if the kid don't like this
show she don't have to stay see Come
along home!"
It was in vain that Stella broke Into
Indignant protest. Hermann Jacobs had
his way. At heart beneath all his
coarseness he was klndb . moreover
he was not averse to making a favor-

t cheating smallpox out of Its just
1 results by spoiling the territory
In advance.
Smallpox Is produced by a most un-
desirable microbe which sprawls
through the human system and messes
it up In a scandalous manner. A man
who is entertaining a case of small-
pox moreover usually distributes sam-
ples among bis neighbors in an open-
handed generous manner which makes
the disease spread faster than a new
dance.
A hundred years ago smallpox was
exceedingly fatal and even when it did
not kill its victim it left him with a
face looking like a pianola record.
When smallpox got into a community
In those days it usually weeded out the
population In a systematic manner
leaving Just enough to start a new
Commercial club and begin business en
a small scale Soft hearted historians
curse the white man for eradicating the
noble copper tinted Indian at which
smallpox smiles sarcastically for It
has wiped out many tribes single
handed without the use of rum. famine
or land agents.
More than a century ago Dr. Jenner
discovered that if a little virus from
a cow who was entertaining smallpox
germs was Injected into a human arm
that arm would have a case of small-
pox all by itself; and moreover we
body which owned the arm would be
Immune henceforth. It is rather hard
on the arm which swells up into a red
globe rather more painful than a sore
tooth but It is a great relief to the
complexion and the sick arm was
neither dangerous nor contagious.
Millions of people got vaccinated
after Jenner discovery was tested and
the world was full of pensive men and
women who yelled mournfully when-
ever anything touched their arms. To-
day vaccination Is compulsory in most
places and many people wish Its good
effects could be extended to other con-
tagions like love extravagance and
tangoitls.
There are some nobly free souls
who protest against vaccination with

a dejected and toothless form.

TESSIE TABBV sat on the floor
and stared at Tottie's picture
Now Tessie was not thinking
what a pretty picture It was nor of
what a dear little kitty girl her sister
looked: in fact she baa nothing but
very ugl thoughts. Tabbyland crea-
tures were like human beings even in
their thoughts for the id-a in Tesste's
mind was very human indeed.
"I don t see why mother had to have
such a pretty picture made of that
goody-goody Tottie" she said to herself!
"She has never had my picture taken
at all. I wonder If it rs fecause- she
thinks that Tottie is prettier than I""
All day long the kl:-v girl bothered
her head about the picture and all day
long she cast cross and ugly glances
at poor Tottie"
"If Tottie is so pretty and I am so
ugly." she said to herself. "I might as
well be naughty too' So she quar-
reled and snapped ana mewed in the
other kitties' ears and pulled the string
all over the floor until Mrs. Tabby did
not know what to do with her.
At 4.M in the afternoon Tessie was
out in the yard. She hac been spanked
twice and made all of tne other kitties
quarrel and had hurt Tottie's feelings
so badly that she had cried almost all
afternoon. But Tessie did not care for
she had started out the day to be cross
and naughty and she certainly was
doing it.
She sat ton the bare ground and
leaned against the titosc. That in
itself was against mother s orders and
her dress was streaked with dirt. Her
fur was caked with dirt and water
where she had grabbed a glass from
Tom and then had lost her balance and
had fallen down.
To see such a pretty kttty girl in a
sorry plight was sad. indeed Tessie
sat and dug her heels in the dirt and
mumbled. Her lip trembled too. for
she was getting hungr . and had al-
most come to the point where she was
ready to cry with anger and sorrow.
Still her mind would go back to that
picture and to Tottie - it s all Tot-
tie s fault anyhow If everyone made
a fuss over me. and had my picture
put in a frame I would be a good girl
too" Then she wiggled uncomfort-
ably she was ver hurnirj. for she
