THE FARMINGTON TIMES. FARMINGTON. MISSOURI. FEBRUARY 24, 1922 Bill's Coming Back - I'll pay you tomorrow. Be here about ten, I'll have the money to Rive to you then. I cannot pay now for sufficient I lack, But 111 have it tomorrow, for Bill's coming back. "Who's Bill I" I inquired, "And what is he to me 1" And this wan his answer: "It's this way, you see, I did have tlie money to pay you, but still He needed a lift, so I loaned it to bill. He'll pay it tomorrow. He said that he would; He (rave me his word, and his promise is good. There are many whose methods are careless and slack, But you can depend on it, Bill will be back." I smiled as I heard him and, shaking my head, "I've had miuiy a promise just like that," I said, "And the risk you have taken is shaky, I fear," But he answered: "He promised, and Bill will be here. I called the next day and I said with a (rrin: "Well, tell me the truth, did your old friend come in? "He did," ho replied, "and it never occurred To me that he wouldn't, for I had his word.' It may Ixc that many are richer than Bill, And many perhaps are much cleverer still; I fancy that hundreds whose wallets nie fat Would give all they had to bo trusted like that! Edgar A. Guest.

There was another brief melee, dur ing which Kraemer'8 son and the man who scared Baker departed. War rants for Kracmer, his son and the man who made the gun play will be asked today.'

Propri etors of soft drink bars where hard drinks are served have come to look upon the agents with the same pleas ure that a boy anticipates a trip to the barn with his father to hear his parent say, "this pains me more than it does you." War of a sort has been declared and evidence of the lirst conflict can be found at the Deacon ness Hospital, or in the office of Gus O. Nations, chicl prohibition enlorce- ment agent. In the hospital is Henry Kraemen who was shot in the leg Saturday night while defending his ihar at 7331 Manchester avenue against the in vading horde of prohibition agents The evidence in Nations' office consists of what boys are wont to call a "hickie." Said hickie. a knot about the size of a goose egg, is adorning Nations' head, to the total exclusion of a hat or cap. And Nations they are calling him "Carrie" in moonshine circles is seriously contemplating the purchase of armor for his crusad ers. Three Raids Made. There were three raids Saturday nie-ht and each was eventful. The first was at 215 North Twelfth street. Agent King went into the saloon of William J.

This, of course, is not within the control of any newspaper. Special Club Raisers' Rates As in former years, the Globe-Democrat is making a special club-raisers' rate, reduced from the regular rates when three or moe yearly subscriptions, by mail are sent at one time. The club-raisers' rate now in force is $15.75 net for a club or three yearly subscriptions to the Daily (only) Globe-Democrat, or $23:25 for a club of three yearly Daily and Sunday Globe Democrat subscriptions. This reduces the pme to each club member to $b.S!5 for the Daily and $7.75 for the Daily and Sun day Globe-Dmcrat. More than three subscriptions can be in cluded in a club, at the same club-raisers rates. Not a Reduction in Quality This nrice reduction does not mean that either the quan tity or quality that Globe-Democrat readers have grown accus tomed to will fee reduced.

Also, to bring to the attention of road overseers or other responsi ble nm,.m i.l, uul for improvement in roads or repair or construction of mlvots nr bridges.

Whatever facilitates the work of Hio irrir is of direct benefit to the patrons, for the greater ease and speed with which a carrier may cover his route tho earlier and better serv ice afforded. So, patrons of rural delivery can greatly help themselves by helping thpir enrrier. seeine to it that roads are kept in good condition and prompt ly opened after storms, oy Keeping me approaches of their boxes clear, and by promptly anu wiiiiugiy i""6 any irregularities affecting their box es when asked to do so. Another trreat assistance that pat rons can render carriers is by keeping themselves supplied with ana using stamps instead of placing Unstamped mail, with money for the purchase of the required postage, in the boxes. This delays the carrier and sometimes imposes a great hardship on him, es pecially in cold or stormy weather. If preferred, stamped envelopes may be obtained from the carrier, are of good quality and cost but little more than the value of the stamps upon them, and are redeemable at the value of the stamps if damaged, but re turned in a practically whole condi tion. If necessary to place money in a box, it should be put in a coin-holding receptacle or properly wrapped so as to be easily pivked up by the car rier. Money tor purchase of money or ders should not be left in boxes, but should be handed to the carrier and a receipt obtained. H . H. BILLANY, Fourth Asst. Postmaster General.
