Im- portant Reasons. iiTi "Those familiar with the subject becoming greatly concerned over the rapid increase of the cigarett habit among the boys of our community. It is a common thing to see children from eight to nine years old and up sneak around behind billboards, stores etc., smoking "snips" picked up on the streets or from the gutters, and in some instances they do it openly and brazenly on the public streets. Often they are seen with cigars, or pipes, and in most of these cases some adult person has violated the law by furnishing the tobacco to children. 'A few reasons why we are going to vigorously enforce the law are: "1. It is a filthy habit for children to form. "2 It injures the health. "3 It weakens the will power. . ... .. "4 It saps both physical and mental power. "5 It makes boys dishonest and unreliable. "6 It robs them of opportunities for securing positions of emolument and trust as many of the large business institutions will not employ a boy who uses tobacco. "7 It is one of the chief causes of truancy. Out of the many boys who graduate from the eighth grade this spring, scarcely a corporal's gaurd will be tobacco users. They practically all fail in school. "8 It is a violation of both state and city laws. "Through the kind of Sheriff Sharp and Chief Barlow and their forces the juvenile court contemplates an earnest and vigorous campaign against the violators of this law both minors and adults. All boys under 18 years of age found breaking the law will be handled by the juvenile court; all between 18 and 21 will be turned over to the county attorney to be prosecuted in the criminal courts. "Commencing Monday, May 23th, all offenders against this law will be brought into custody and given such treatment as will effectually stop this pernicious practice among the boys of our state. "This notice is given that all concerned may be left without ' ARE YOU REGISTERED?

' Bur- The Ellertson Brother's store burned down Friday morning May 2Gth. The fire was first seen about 2:C0 a. m., but just how it got started is unknown. Evidently it must have been set on fire by some one as there has been no fire in the building for some time to occasion any accident by fire. Had it not been raining rhat night there would have been no doubt but Eph. H. Kay would have lost his beautiful home also his store. This would have meant a loss of both school houses and perhaps even more damage. "The rain, the beautiful rain", was a double blessing to this little community that night. The loss is placed at $G0OO.0O which is only half covered by insurance.
