Over the cigars and coffee he was made the subject of many jeers and gibes about the way the weather had been failing to measure up to the Weather Bureau’s specifica tions. “There’s one thing to be thank ful for, anyway,” said a young doctor. “I see that you follows are willing to admit that you are wrong. "Well, as far as that is con cerned, responded Moore, “we have to do that because we have no alternative. Now, with the medical profession it is different. You can bury your mistakes.” Out For Representative. The first candidate to announce for representative is Col. W. B. Kent, the present incumbent.
