A Child's Delight Was Death For the
Mule.
"Bill" Padberg, extensive wheat
grower of the Clarlts Canyon has one
less white mule this week than he
had last week. As the story goes,
the mule rambled oft to the school
house not far from the Padberg fields,
and entered the school house yard.
Being an inquisitive sort of mule he
began an inspection of the play
ground apparatus and it was not long
before he became involved' in the in
tricacies of a child's swing and
thereby hangs a tale.
Mr. Padberg found his big white
mule, the animal had been unable to
solve the mysteries of this child s
Dlavthing. and his soul had departed
for mule heaven. It appeared that,
In trying to get out of tne cons or.
the swine rones, which in some man
ner he had twisted about his neck,
Mr Mule had pulled back and choked
himself to death.
Federated S. 8. Notes.
The adult bible class known as the

into two flourishing classes, the old

"Roe Bible Class." They have cho
sen Rev. H. A. Noyes as their teacher,
and report very enjoyable sessions.
The younger division of the class are
now known as the ."Ithiel Bible
Class." The word Ithiel means "God
is with us." They have unanimous
ly elected Mrs. C. E. Woodson as
their teacher. The class recently
took sides in a drive for members
and our attendance increased greatly.
The losing side in the contest gave
an entertainment in the church par
lors Friday evening of last week. A
very pleasant time was reported by
all present, light refreshments were
served. This class is "up and com
ing," having decided to rehabilitate
an orchard in France. Also they ex
pect to do some work along Christian
endeavor lines in outlying districts.
The work in the Primary depart
ment Is also thriving we hear, as they
have added another class. Miss Lois
Hall has taken charge of the tiny tots,
and it is needless to say her hands
are full. Miss Lois seems perfectly
able, however, to handle the situa
tion.

Drawn from a photograph of Christine Milltr tinging m direct com
parison usith tht New Edison and proving that the
two interpretations art identical.
A Faithful Reflection
of Christine Miller
Just as the clear surface of a quiet pool
mirrors the image above it so does this
marvelous instrument reflect with com
plete fidelity the voices of the Edison art
ists. So perfect and satisfying are the Ee
Creations that no human ear can detect a
shade of difference between the perform
ances of the artists and those of
The NEW EDISON
"The Phonograph with a Soul."
Over two million people have attended our
famous tone tests in which the artist
was pitted against the instrument. And
not once has the New Edison failed to
moot this searching test: definitely con
vincingly conclusively.
Call at our store for a demonstration.
