The Ellis ReUie5u- Headlight makes
the following kindly mention of the part
taken by Trego county teachers at the
joint meeting held in Ellis, February 4th;
The opening address was made by Su.
perintendent King, in which he welcom-
ed the Trego county teachers in the name
of Ellis county and all of the teachers in
the name of this city. The answer by
Superintendent Peacock was short but
to the point He expressed a wish that
they might soon have the privilege of en-
tertaining the Ellis county teachers in
Wa Keeney. The next on the programme
was paper by Prof. Laverty, full of fine
humor which showed much thought and
study had been spent on it. 1t was pa
per that would take" anywhere. The
subject was: "Self Examinations or the
Modern Suicidal Plan"
The afternoon meeting was called to
order at 80 p. m. After the opening
hymn, we listened to Review of r.
wings Sketch Book" by Miss Carrie Da-
Wis. It was thorough review and she
closed it with 1.-THE Legend of Sleepy
Hollow" bringing in the description of
the schoolmaster Ichabod Crane, who
will always be remembered as long as
"Diedrich Knicherbooker's" tales are
prevalent. Some one suggested that
Ichabod could never have gone to a
teachers association or he would have
lost some of his egotism and supersti-
ton.
MIR. Harlan's "Review of Evangeline,"
brought out strongly the pure, romantic
character of the fair Acsdian wanderer.
Miss Neuenswander gave an excellent
paper on "The characteristics Of an
Ideal Lesson"

Otto Young gave us call last Satur-
day and made himself solid once more
with the WORLD. The Young family
came to Trego county from Illinois early
in the spring of 1880. Clemens Young
and his two Sons George and Otto live
short distance south of the Smoky river
in Franklin township. The old gentle
man, on account of age and infirmities,
does not do much farming and his sons
have been working in partnership most
of the time since they began life for
themselves. Except team and cow they
have made all they are worth since COM
ing to Trego county. They have Sec
ton and half of good land, $50 head Of
cattle and 10 head of horses and no mort
cages on any of it. They have done well
here and their success is another evidence
of what may be accomplished by energy
and hard work. There are no better cit
liens in Trego county than the Young
family. Honest, intelligent and indus
trious they command the esteem Of all
who know them.

In Trego County for More Than
IL observation-disclosures,
e, F. BRYANT.

z. r. BRYANT.
e. F. Bryant, who resides about four
miles southeast OF Wa-Keeney, came here
in 1873. He remained here couple of
years before he took claim, when he
filed on homestead and timber claim,
both of which he has since proved up
and now owns a half section of the
finest kind of land. Mr.. Bryant took the
first census of the school children in this
county in 1879. The county was organ
lied in that year, and it became neces-
sary to take the census in order to re-
ceive the state appropriation, and the cit
liens raised a purse and employed Mr..
Bryant to do it. He thinks there is no
doubt that there has been great climatic
changes since he came here. Has made
speciality of gardening and is we'll sat-
isfied with the results and thinks, con-
sidering the means when he had came
here, that he has been as successful here
as he would have been anywhere. Mr..
Bryant is good citizen, likes this coun,
try and expects to remain here.
E. W. o'TooLE.
E. ". O'Toole, of Collyer, called last
Saturday and set his subscription ahead.
Mr.. O'Toole is one Trego county's oldest
settlers, having come here on March q,
1879. He lives about four miles south
west of Collyer and has fine farm we'll
improved. He owns 800 acres of land,
has 70 head of cattle, head Of horses,
and everything necessary for successful
farming and is entirely out of debt. In
addition to the above he sold 20 head OF
yearling steers last Saturday. He has
had some bad luck since coming here,
but he has made money and is we'll salts
fed to remain. He thinks he could not
have done so well anywhere else as
here. Mr.. O'Toole is one of our best
citizens and is respected by all his neigh
bors.
