ADAIR ADvICEs.
ADAIR, June II.

Corn is being cultivated.
Some rye has been cut for hay.
Joshua Musgrave is fencing his place
John Musgrave is working for G. W
Staplin, of Glencoe.
Jesse Cockrell helped to wear out the
pavements of the county capital last Mon
day.
Miss May Cutler was visiting with hel
sister, Mrs. Eppler, the latter part of last
week.
Sam Baird has about finished the adj.
dition to his house. The addition is
nearly as large as the main part. Ed.
Griffith done the work.
The Pleasant Ridge Alliance has
changed its time of meeting to the first
and third Mondays OF each month. They
meet now in the evening.
The picnic at Hays City last Thursday
called a number from here. We are told
there were ten wagon loads OF Adair ALI
snce people. All report a very enjoyable
time
Adair Alliance met in regular session
last Saturday evening. A special meet
ing is called for this Thursday afternoon
1T three o'clock for the purpose Of initia-
ting lady members.
Yves. Marquand was up in this country
G,,rIoy 70 ooo 4ba ,-riEar GO-r1 vra
were not at home. He was here again
Monday morning, but it was SO early we
hadn't got up yet.
Mr.. Musgrave and sons are drilling a
well for Mr.. LETTERS. Mr.. LETTERS is again
in this country and, we believe, for good.
He has been married since he was here
before and he and his family are boarding
at W. T. Brabb's.
This kind of weather is enough to make
a resubmissionist out of the most radical
prohibitionist At least we believe the
majority of Trego countys population
would rather go little more wet" than
have quite so much "dry."
We notice an error in the last paper.
The number of the school district should
have read at" instead Of "57." Also, in
another item, the omission of a name. It
is Jos. Marquand, of Ogallah, that SO
thoroughly understands the art of brew
ing tea, so-called.
Ye local was fortunate enough to be at
Ogallsh at the Children's Day celebra-
ton. The music rendered by the quar-
tette, from Wa-Keeney, was the best we
ever heard or ever care to listen to. Es-
pecially can we say this of the soprano.
So far this week one of the boys has
been to the home of his best and only girl
four different days. and one OF the days
he was there twice. This is up to Thurs
day noon. So there are two days and a.
half and as many nights of this week as
yet unaccounted for.
A large party of friends gathered at
the residence OF Mr.. and Mrs. Joshua
Musgrave on Wednesday evening, June
II, to witness the marriage of their daugh-
ter, Iva NJ. Mason to Theodore Cruson.
The ceremony was performed by Rev. H.
N. Rogers. After congratulations the
company sat down to an elegant wedding
collation.. The presents were too numer-
Gus to take space to mention. Both par
ties are too well known to need any eulogy
from us. The WORLD pencil driver wishes
them long life and prosperity.
The school laws of Kansas say that
voters of the district shall determine at
the annual meeting whether male or fe-
male teacher shall be employed, the
length of the term and if it shall he fall
or spring term, or both. Notwithstanding
this, the school board of district Is have
as good as hired teacher; have agreed
on the wages to be paid, and within
week or two of the time school CON-
mences. Mr.. Hughes is the outgoing
director. We are told that he declines
another term. II he wished reelection
he could undoubtedly secure it, and, we
we believe, unanimously. But if he
does or does not, is not the question. This |
is not fair deal to the new officer, if it
should happen to be any one else. We
have no objection to Mr.. Hughes, under !
stand that, and will say nothing Gin print |
against any teacher selected if the selec- |
ton is done in the proper way, but this is
not fair to the people Of the district, and |
last and most, is not according to Kansas
law. In hurrying this business through |
before election, it looks as though there
was surely an African lurking somewhere.
