Mr.. and Mrs. G.. Chase returned
Sunday afternoon from Los Angeles,
Cali, where they went the first of the

health by a change of climate. We
regret to note that they were disap-

all the time while they were away.
He is better now however. and glad

J. w. Wise wound up his business
in Allen county last week and is now
a resident of Labette county. We
have known John Wise ever since we
can remember, and we never knew
anything but good of him. We are
mighty sorry to have him move
away, and hope he will prosper and
come back again. Our Spring Branch
letter tells what his neighbors think
of him.
There was about an inch of heavy,
wet snow Tuesday morning, the first
we have had for several weeks. 1t is
pretty tough to have winter come
back again after the month of de-
lightful weather we have had. But
1t is good thing for all that. We
are bound to have frosts and weather
that will keep back the fruit buds for
about six weeks will save US lots of
dollars.

he ran against the big fork of hay

made a wound which is not only
painful, but may result seriously or

that while his address was courteOu;
in its tone, there was no new argu

for which he pleaded. The address
occasioned so little talk that extended
