"Keep Off The Grass"
.St. Louis steps to the front and
demands both national conven-
tions in 1912. The main reason
she gives for this modest request
is that she has a new convention
hall that will seatrl0,*OOO persons.
She hopes the delegates to for-
mer conventions in the city will
forget the venerable old fire trap
of a barn in- which Parker was
nominated, and" which served^^republican
for McKinley and the Populists
in former years. There still
dwells in the memory' of those
who attended the democratic
convention of 1904 the $15 arid
$20 a day they paid for $2 rooms
the sumptuous $3 dinners which
almost rival those served in
Baltimore^aLJO cents, and the
general manner'^ in which the
Missourians separated the vis-
from their money.
Any party that holds its con
opted without actual authority veritidn in St. Louis is . tempting
' ... . fate. It was

the Democrats would nom-

This is the city of jthe open
door and the glad hand.
Terrapin, canvasback duck
and Chesapeake Outers have .a
soothing effect that puts the
most habit insvirgent in a happy
mood. The Democrats are not
looking for a fighting ground.
They want peace and unity,
for the good of the party and
the country.
Baltimore is the home of har-
mony, as well as the capital of
Democracy.. It has a great fire-
proof hall tha!t will seat 15.000
persons. It has plenty of hotels
where the prices will be reason-
able enough to delight the dele-
gates, and when they come they
will find on the table everything
on earth that is good to eat and

But Baltimore gives notice
here and now that the conven-
tion that-will pick the winner is
going to be held right here.

night under a hot rifle and yistol
fire from Hollister, Okla., thirty-
five miles north of here. There
went four men in the automobile
They dynamited the safe of
the State Bank at Hollister. A
Sheriff and posses has.J)een sent

Ways of The Butterfly Girl.
She is pretty and popular, and
her lackadaisical; butterfly ways
is a bed of roses especially made
for her to lie upon.
This may all be pleasant for
her, but is she letting herself -
grow into a woman to be admir-
ed? Even though she may be
liked because of her charm and
her cute ways, ought she herself
to be satisfied witfiTtHis? " .
Surely, it, is more worth while 11
to be a sweet, womanly, useful
girl than to be a pampered doll.
Ought she not to come forth
frtjm the slpugh of indolence and
selfishness and be of service as
well as being served?
_ Even flowers yield honey, and
no girl, no matter how pretty
and popular she may be, Should
be content always to accept and
never t9 give. She ought to rise
above such a low standard of
life. Because she is liked is all
the more reason why she should
give some real return for all the
love and attention they lavish
upon her, and not accept these
as. if they had been made to wait
upon her. ^
