sow large acreage of oats. More corn

Thos Wynn, one of the sick of whom
we spoke In our last, was out next day.
When we saw him we reflected little.
We thought perhaps-and then we con-
Guided that if we ever referred to his
illness again it would be with a dread
full prospect of winding up with his
obituary
The Ogallah Sabbath schools contrib
ution to the New York Relief fund last
Saturday amounted to So. A bad day
and slim attendance, otherwise the
amount would have been double this.
1t is but justice to say OF those who have
charge of the Sabbath school here, that
more thorough, energetic and palms.
taking set of teachers, in the prepara-
ton of their lessons, for keeping up the
enthusiasm Of their several classes,
would be hard to find anywhere. This
is we'll, since the ministers seem all to
have abandoned US to our fate-borrow-
ing phrase. We will try and keep
house if they have.
1t is shown that the winter wheat is
all right and the fine rain of Saturday
night puts the ground in excellent con-
dition to give that cereal an early start,
which means good crop. KETCHUM.

TEACHERS, Meat,nr

The Trege Gepaty Teachers Assoeia-
ton net q the Office of the county SUI
.perintend4nt, Saturday, March Bird 1894.
The follswing teachers were present:
Jessie Welch, Eva Stott, Sara Wolf. Mrs.

stradall, Carrie Sweet, Nellie Sweet,
Bertha Morgan, Mrs. May Greenwood,
J. F. Barclay, j. A. Rich, H. Harlan,
A. s. Peacock, Prof. Opp, D. McCollum,
Rola Clack. Visitors-Miss Ethel
Dorns, Sadie Roberts, Mr.. Wolf.
An article on the rather difficult sub
jet of Corporation Receivers" was
read by H. Harlan. from which We
learned among other things that any
federal court or any district court may
appoint Corporation Receivers, if petit
toned SO to do by either the corporation
or its creditors. For a person to fill the
position Of Corporation Receiver with
judgment and ability, it is necessary
for him to have the fullest possible
knowledge of the business of the corpo-
ration, and for this reason it is common
for prominent official or even the
president of the road to be appointed
one of the receivers of an insolvent
road. S. 81. H. Clark, former president,
is one of the five receivers appointed
for the Union Pacific.
Miss Artie Hobbs, of Collyer, was to
read paper on Revolutions in Insur-
rections," but being absent there was a
short general discussion of the subject
The Revolution of the Sandwich Islands
and Brazilian affairs were the principal
subjects discussed.
Important Legislation" was the sub
ject of paper by Mrs. Jessie F. Taylor.
The most important legislation both of
this country and Europe for 1893, was
reviewed.
Important Elections of $685." were
briefly reviewed by Rolla Clack. The
writer mentioned what he considered
the most important causes influencing
these elections, and some effects he
thought would probably follow.
On account of the absence of Miss
Clara McCollum, the subject of death
of Noted Persons during 1885," was ia
ken up under the head of General
Discussion"
2 Miss Jessie Welch read an essay on
"Punctuality." Among other points
she spoke most emphatically of the
gratitude felt by teachers towards those
mothers who send to the schoolroom
children carefully trained in this mat
ter of punctuality in all things.
The lesson in Psychology was then
taken up.
Then followed paper on General
Exercises" by J. F. Barclay. He favor
ed having general exercises sometimes
in the afternoon. Outline maps of
township, county and state, their
officers terms, duties and salaries, were
some of the good subjects for this exer-
else. A brief review of the general ex-
ercises furnishes busy work for younger
pupils.
The next Association will be held OH
April 18th. The program will appear
later. MARY o. SHEPHERD, Sec'y

Editor Howe of the Atchison Champ
ion gives the following wholesome ad-
vice to boys:
eff I could address but single SEN
tence to boys, it would be: BE good to
your mothers l often think that the
best thing in life is the patience and
goodness of mothers towards their chill
dren. A boy who has been mean to his
mother will have pain in his heart he
cannot get rid of. This conscience you
boar of becomes more powerful as you
grow older; if your conscience does not
hurt you now it will later on. An old
man told me once that when little fell
low he had sighted his mother, and the
other children caught him at it. After
fifty years it was still humiliating him;
the one recollection of his childhood
that he could never forget nor explain
away. In all your life, boys, you will
never have another friend like your
mother; read this sentence to any old
man and he will tell you it is true. The
world is full of selfish people and you
will meet no other kind after parting
with your mother, for in a mothers
heart there is not an atom of selfshness
toward her children. L have known
men who disliked their fathers, but
never knew man who had reason to
dislike his mother.

Perhaps never in the history of
modern journalism has any newspaper
gained so rapidly in public favor as the
Chicago Inter Ocean. Within the past
two years it has, by adopting progressive

prise in all its departments forced itself
into the very front rank of great Chica-
