fenced, surveyed into lots and plated, +,

Of public enterprise, besides Il be-
speaks an interest in our deceased rel
atjves ana friends. But care for our
cemeteries is duty often left undonel
not because Ne do not care for our dead

nobody's;" so thus 1t goes. A small

From Chief Perryman's Message,

"Before the establishment Of feder-
al court in our country we had no re-
course against a non-citizen in civil
cases. 1t was then deemed necessary
to make the citizens responsible for
the misconduct Of their uon-eitizen
employees, hence the enactment OF the
permit law and the origin Of system
OF registration. Both have served their
purpose and would recommend that
the permit law be repealed. l consider
II to be bad policy to tax labor in any
country and more particularly in our
country where we nave hundreds Of
thousands Of acres OF land awaiting
labor for its development"

young man came down here from
Kansas City last spring and for some
time stayed around Mr.. SINNERS
house and ranch, as a guest. Just
before leaving this country few weeks
ago he hired a horse at Adair, giving a
worthless check for the use Of II; the
animal was never returned. When he
he left he carried away several ar.i-

Hunt, with whom he stayed for time.

At least two feet of space should be

Still higher in the side of the building.
one or two windows should be placed,
which should be left open in warm

air and ingress for any cool air which

small quantities of ice, it is desirable,
even with these air spaces. to leave a
