It was a novel experience so different were the 'conditions from those to which he had been accustomed. To him it was romance, adventure, a new world. 5 Time passed until the day lie was united in marriage to a young lady of the community,' the next epocal period in his career.

But this one came once too often., I think peoplo are likp that : -'V There was Jack Whipple vwho was always boasting of his ability o get out of any difficulty. He Jnever got caught," as he would say. tl9 was lorever iato om sort of mischief, and he did have a knack of getting put, usually leaving scnieone else lo srffer for. bis es capades. Jack said. "They just can't catch me, that is all." It did look like it. While people knew that Jack was to blame ia most of the tricks and bits' of mis chief, they never seemed to be able to prove it. One day Jack got into what seemed to be a rather small af fair. , That Is it did not seem to amount to much. It was so small when compared with other things that he had dont. JJut this time the federal government was con cerned. Jack was up against the federal officers. That was differ ent from the local justice of the peace. . Some bootleg liquor had been getting into the community. At first no' one suspected Jack, for he never had been a drinking man. There seemed to be hardly any clue on Which to work, but very quietly the officers worked away at the case. The violations became more open and more frequent. At last Jack was caught. His cun ning had saved him many a time, bnt this time it failed and he could not escape. Jack suffered for his foolishness.' But that is not the worst part. His family had to bear the hardest part. They suffered more than he did. for they had to meet the consequences of Jack's wrong doing every day, while he was shut up away from it. When I heard about the story of Jack Whipple, I thought of the old cottonwood tree, that we call ed "The Chicken-Hawk Tree." Yomi enjoy driving a Pontlac. It handles so easily and performs so well it is a real pleasure to drive It or ride in it. Vick Bros., High and Trade. () ROSA PONSELLE PAYS . TRIBUTE TO PIANO (Continued irom page 1.) tounded the musical world by stepping from stardom with the Keith vaudeville Circuit to make a brilliant debut as a leading prima donna at the great Metro politan Opera company of New York. Rosa Ponselle, whose vocal art was recently proclaimed by one of New York's leading music crit ics as the most beautiful in the world, has in the opinion of many authorities no peer as a drama tic soprano. Ponselle's brilliant career before the Gojden Horse shoe is the result of many dark days of tremendous struggle agains all kinds of adversity. This phenomenal woman, not blessed with parental wealth and comfort, had to sing to earn her living and by the very natural beauty of her voice she eventually sang herself into a position of first magnitude with the Keith Circuit. It was during the time that she was delighting Keith. audiences at at New York vaudeville house that he beautiful art came to the no tice of those who were instrumen tal in gaining for her an audience with the Metropolitan directors. She was not assigned to small parts as is usually the case. The voice was too beautiful to waste in lesser roles and hence her start at the Metropolitan was in a lead ing role, that of Leonora In El Foraza del Destino. Ponselle stands alone today as the greatest woman singer in the world. For sheer beauty of voice with all its marvelous shading and ton color she has no equal. Her art Is enjoyed every year at the Metropolitan, in her innumerable concert appearances and through the records she has made for th Victor Phonograph company, which have perpetuated her -beautiful art for future generations.
