REMEMBER THE POOR.

In accordance with the above injunc-
ton the Board of County Commissioners,
while in session this week, issued call
for public meeting of the citizens of
Allen county, to be held at lola Satur-
day January 9th. The Commissioners
call this meeting ''for the purpose of ta-
king steps to relieve the poor of Allen
county" This action on the part of our
Commissioners is wise. Allen county
may, or may not, be able to properly
care for her own poor; at all events it is
right and proper that the people should
meet together and take in consideration
what is be done. And We can't tell
what is best to be done until we know
our exact condition-know who has to
spare and who will have to be supplied.
1t is said by persons who claim to
have inquired somewhat into the matter
that there are number of families in
our county who will have to have assist
ance in the way of food and clothing, or
they will be compelled to sacrifice their
stock and the start they have made to-
ward getting homes. No one we suppose
believes there are people in our county
who will starve, for they will sacrifice
their homes first; but the necessity for
such sacrifice is what should be pre-
vented. Then there will be q great
many persons who will need some assist
ance next spring in the way of grain for
their horses when they come to put in
their crops. On account Of the scarcity
of feed horses will be poor in the spring
and will not be able to put in and tend
the crops without grain
We hope that at the meeting to-day
the exact situation may be known, and
that our people will act accordingly. If
it is found, as some think it will be, that
the destitution is greater than our eoun-
ty can supply, then let our people accept
of the aid that is offered by the Kansas
Central Relief Committee. If on the
other hand the people of the county are
able and willing to supply all the cloth
ing, provisions and grain that is actually
demanded, then so much the better, as
it will save all feelings of humiliation,
and leave a larger supply for those
counties that are more needy. ."
At public meeting in Ford county,
similar to the one called by our Commis-
sioners for to-day. the people passed
resolution thanking Gov. Osborn for his
proposition to furnish help for the desti-
tute of their county, but declined all
assistance, stating that $50 long as the
roaming buffalo put in a appearance We
fear no famine" This is plucky, and all
that sort of thing, but if the roaming
buffalo is the chance the people of that
county have for food We expect some of
them will be "too thin" to put in and
tend much Of crop next season. What
ever may be developed at the meeting
to day we believe that our County Com
missioners, as has always been their Gus
tom in the past, will try to have done
what is best for the people. If cur peo-
pie can take care of their own poor, let
them do so without passing buncombe
resolutions, and if they must ask for aid
let them do it without feeling that it is
criminal or even disgraceful.

FROM GENEVA.

Christmas has again come and gone.
The scholars of the Congregational Sab
bath School had been looking forward to
this time as an oasis in the desert of their
every day lives. They had been prom
ised Christmas tree, and the teachers,
officers and friends of this school had
been working hard, that their expecta-
tions might not be disappointed, and
tried to so arrange the programme of the
evening that all who chose to come could
be amused and benefited by the enter
tainment The time set by the commit
tee for this meeting, December 25th,
EVENING" which to the younger scholars
seemed as though it would never get
here, came at last, and with it a throng
which filled the church until there was
standing room for no more, each one
striving to obtain seat with an unob-
structed view.
The exercises were opened with prayer
by the Rev. Mr.. Bell; your humble SER
want was selected as scribe for the eve
ming, and given window sill for seat
and q red hot stove for foot stool. This
becoming uncomfortable We had the pleas
ure of three cornered stick of wood
upon which to rest our baked and mealy
bones. The time intervening between
the gathering of the congregation and
the drawing of the curtain which hid
the tree from sight, was pleasantly passed
listening to music, repeating verses by
the infant class, and short, but appro-
pirate addresses by Revs. Harlow and
Gray.
The curtains were drawn back, and
there was displayed to the eyes of the
delighted beholders magnificent Jack
Oak, decorated with evergreens, and all
kinds of presents, the useful, ornamental
and comic, those that were put on to
make fun, others as tokens of friendship,
and some-as that young man said who
bought stick of licorice for his girl-tO
make her stick to him. The tree was
Illuminated with wax tapers, which GER
tainly did their part in making this
sprout of an acorn outshine all of its
brethren of the forest.
The gifts were distributed to their re-
spective recipients amid the applause of
the delighted receivers, and the laughing
of the audience, as some comic gifts were
shown. That everlasting dog showed its
appreciation by All occasional bark, and
those that had babies congratulated
themselves upon being able to join in
the chorus of this harmonious din. After
the presents were all distributed the
congregation sang the L. NJ. Doxology
and were dismissed.
Those connected with the Congrega-
tional Sabbath School and friends, ought
to feel satisfied with the success of their
celebration. When a committee have
conducted an entertainment OF this kind
so as to hurt no persons feelings, and so
as to please large majority of their
audience, we say well done. We feel
certain that no one left the Congrega-
tional Church Christmas evening disap-
aointed, unless it was those big boys who
had arranged themselves on top of the
side slips, and window sills, and as the
candy was distributed to the small schei-
aS could not help showing their disap-
pointment by their staring eyes, eager,
out stretched hands, and watering
mouths. Enough of this.

people is "well done good and faithful

been such, however, as to enable the
Judge to spend the remainder of his days
