WHEN PA IS SICK.
When Pa is sick he's scared to
death
An Ma an us just holds our
breath,
He crawls in bed and puffs and
grunts,
And does all kinds of crazy stunts.
He wants 'Doc' Brown an' mighty
quick,
For when Pa's ill he's mighty
sick.
He gasps and groans, an' sorto'
sighs,
He talks so queer an' rolls his
eyes.
Ma jumps an' runs, an' all of us,
An' all the house is in a fuss.
An' peace an' joy is mighty
sceerce
When Pa is sick, it's something
fierce. Ex.
Winslow Mail: The grand jury
in Gila- county have reported to
the court the result of their. in
vestigation into the reckless ex
penditures of the money derived
from a road bond issue by the
board of supervisors, and after
censuring the board make the re
quest that their resignations be
demanded, and in the event of
their refusal to resign that recall
proceedings be instituted. The
trouble with all the road bond is
sues lies in the fact that the ex
tra large sum made available for
improving the roads is very liable
to be squandered without giving
the people adequate return for
their money.
A Severe case of small pox was
discovered in Winslow last Mon
day. Mrs. Lucia Gonzales, who
lives on the south side, called to
see her doctor regarding the in
flamed condition of her face, and
it was at once pronounced as
small pox. She was immediately
placed in quarantine, and prompt
step3 were taken to stamp out
any spread of the disease. Wins
