Two Sinners.
BY ELLA WHEELER wILCox,

Ihere was man. 1t is said, one time.
no went astray IN his youthful prime.
Can the brain keep cool and the heart keer
When the blood is river that's running
AND boys will be boys, the old folks say,
And the man Is the better who's had his dav
Inc sinner reformed. and the preacher told
vi the prodlgal son who came back to the
fold, '"e
And Christian people threw open the door
WIN warmer welcome than ever before.
Weaith and honor were to his command.
Anu spotless woman gave him her hand
And the world strewed their pathway with
flowers abloom,
Crying, God bless ladye and God bless
groom"
There was maiden who went astrsy
In the golden dawn of her lfe's young day,
She had more passion and heart than head.
And she followed blindly where fond Love
led,
And love unchecked is dangerous guide
10 wander at will by Il fair girls side.
The woman repentei and turned from sin.
But no door opened to let her in.
The preacher prayed that she might be for
given,
But told her to look for mercy-iu heaven.
For this is the law OF the earth we know.
mat the woman is stoned while the man
may go.
A brave man welded her after all;
But the world said, frownng, I'VE shall not
call" ''

Lotus.

l love the lotus blossom when 1t wreathes
Its painted petals in my sweetheart's
tresses,
Aud she enchanted by its odor breathes,
Soft words of love and soothes with soft
Caresses.
! love the lotus blossom when it lies
On the white bosom of sleeping woman,
And falls and rises as the dreamer sighs,
For that loves sake she yet has told to no
man.
I love the lotus blossom, for it grows
On a lone grave beside silent river;
There my youths mistress takes her last re-
pose;
loved, hated, and now forgive her.

THE FAIR.

The annual fair of the Lafayette
County Live Stock and Industrial As
sociation, held at Higginsville, Aug.
1928, inclusive, while not a success
financially, was, considering the ex-
treme hot weather, the drought, the
hard times, and other discouraging cir
cumstances, remarkably well attended
and the rings well contested. The de-
f1cit in the finances will be provided
for by the board of directors. Below
will be found the award of premiums,
the first mentioned name taking the
premium and the second name the cer-
tificate. In many instances, notably
in the Art Hall, where the second
place was not awarded to articles
exhibited, the same articles would have
commanded premium in a majority
OF the county fairs of the state. The
ladies of the county certainly deserve
much praise for the display of the evil
dences of their skill in needle work,
the culinary art and the dairy, the two
latter not being confined to the Art
Hall, but exhibited in the sumptuous
lunches prepared for themselves and
friends, to be eaten upon the grounds,
many of which would have graced the
table at wedding feast.
