LECTURE To THE PAPERS OF
course everybody wants to see what is
In the paper as soon as it comes home.
Ali cannot read it at once, and if one
has to wait till all the rest have read it.,
before his turn comes, it is old. Better
let one read aloud and then all can en-
Joy it at once. But what is the reader
to do when he comes to one of those
obscene references, found in so many
newspapers, which no pure mind can
read aloud in a promiscuous company !;
which no thoughtful parent would
have his children hear? Puzzled.
Guess the editor had better leave out
all such references, low slang and
whatever is offensive to good morals,
or good breeding. Parents send their
children to school to learn the English
language; they teach them slang by
putting into their hands the family
paper. Who is to blame If these chill
drsn learn to use vulgar and profane
language? Who? am glad to know
that The NEWS is comparatively free
from the evil complained of. But
there is much need for reform in the
country press generally in this partic-
ular.
The II. Z. festival, Tuesday even

GOOD CHANCE FOR SToCK FARMS
D. S. Avery, of Agnes City, informs
US that he knows of no better opening
for stock raisers than there is In the
northern part Of this and the southern
part of Wabaunsee counties. There is
plenty of living water in the streams,
and boundless sea of range for stock {;
good grass is plenty every year, and
shelter can be easily provided. Land
can be had at as low rates as in almost
any section of the State. The A. T. &
8. T, railroad company own large
quantities of land which can be bought
on long time, and at low rates. Mr..
Avery is ready at all times to do all in
his power to accommodate stock rais-
ers by showing them the country, etc.
This country lies from twenty to TWEEN
ty-five miles north of Emporia, and
only thirty to thirtY-flve miles south
of Topeka, is handy to railroad fscil-
titles, and possesses, in every way, SUI
perior advantages for stock raising.
