to give the young folks short pleasure

auger holes through it in various
places thereby rendering the boat
worthless. Frank says he knows the

that pure cassedness is born iu some

Ed Courier: After reading the
paragraph in a recent hsoe of the
Courier concerning bicycle riding, I
would like to say a few words in de
fense of the bicycle. While the bi
cycle, like ererjthing else, has Its
drawbacks, It is certainly a most con-
Tenient and sometimes necessary war
of traveling. I think I sham th
sentiments of nearly all the riders in
saying that it is onr least deiire to
interfere with anyone walking aud
are always ready to distuoont in close
quarters and to apoligize for "acci
dents," which are very rare. While
Orauts Faes may be tho only city of
Its size tolerating bicycle riding on
uie Biuewama. it Is a!so about the
only city of its size that has no paved
streets and most anv ridnr n
testify that the streets are not Terv
good. Pare ihe streets, then watch
where we ride.
