farm, was debated by the following
pupils: Affirmative: Tacy Collett,
Alma Carlson, Edith Pettycrew, Frank
Thorn, Walter Thorn and Lilly Collet.
Negative: Harry Tucker, Charles Cook,
Mabel Towne and Garry Dillon. The
discussion of this question consumed
the greater portion of the afternoon.
The second question, Resolved: That
sociability sh ould be cultivated, was
presented in all its phases by the fol-
lowing debaters: Affirmative: Frank
Thorn and Walter Thorn, Negative:
Mae Davenport, Garry Dillon and

This is the last week of the most
successful term of school the editors
of this department have ever had the
fortune co attend, and with this, our
last work on the "School Column we
wish to heartily thank the patrons of
The DEMOCRAT for the many kind
words they have spoken in token of
their appreciation of our efforts. We
wish also to thank the editor for the
interest he has taken in our work and
the words of cheer aid encouragement
given us when our hearts were heavy
and we thought the world more dreary
than it really is. The benefit we have
derived from our editorial work in
this column has more than repaid us
for the time and energy spent, and we
will try to be on hand at the opening
of the next term of school with a
column that will be not only a credit
to ourselves but to the school as well.

The frosts and winds Of the past two
weeks have materially damaged the
wheat, oats and potatoes, and some
farmers are going to plant corn where
the wind has blown out the wheat and
oats.
Mr.. and Mrs. Parker, teachers in the

A wagon train loaded with wood for
W. ?. Alsip's brick yard on the "re-

We are informed that $50 cords of
wood are to be hauled from here.
Inquiry discloses the fact that very
little corn will be planted in this part
of Cherry county. Farmers say that
it is a losing business and they intend
sowing alfalfa as fast as they can pre-
pare the land and get seed.

LEROY LEACH, Editor.

The following verses are respect
fully dedicated to G. A. Johnson, Esq,
in memory of the past:
WHEN BECKETT CAME TO TOWN.
Twas in the spring of 'S6 that Beckett came to
town
That from the car steps. clad in black, he slowly
ed down.
He wasn't much to look at, being somewhat an
gular,
And he gazed in innocence around while getting
off the car.
But he early demonstrated, in accents firm and
sound,
That Beckett was a talker, the best forfar around.
He talked of spiritualism. politics and home,
And into Greek mythology with long strides did
he roam.
He didn't seem to realize that there were others
there
Who wanted chances equalized in the ~oratorial
chair.
At last he spoke OF Kansas, and of the flint hills
steep,
And told us how the ranchmen there shod all
their little sheep;
But here the boys objected, and votes from al
were taken
OF which the larger portion said Beckett was
mistaken.
He talked from early morning until the shades
of eve,
And even when twas bedtime he seemed to hate
to leave;
But the boys grew rather weary, and one night
ere seeking rest
Resolved to let friend Beckett know that he was
in the west.
Accordingly a notice was posted in the stores
Which read THE Sioux are coming with knives
and 'forty-fours.'"
And when the shades of night came down anc
settled DER the sWells
The quiet air was broken by wild and woolll
yells.
This proved effective-Becket stopped, and witt
some chilly thrills
| He grabbed his hat and large valise and started
for the hills;
Then from behind large bonfires g~lowed-wilt
yells the air did shake.
While in the thund'rous roar of guns Becke
Swa the lake.
Next day he wandered back again and in a qua
verlng trill
Told how he'd finally spied Light from off a higl
sand hill;
This proved to be a neighbours house, who, pity
ing Becket's plight.
Allowed the man to enter, and there he spen
the night.
We'd like to see friend Beckett now, and shoult
he happen down
We'd take HIM round to see the sights in thi
our little town;
For oft in dreams we see him-oft see his face il
pain,
Just as it looked next morning when he tool
the east bound train.

Friday evening, May Is, at s p. NJ,
under the auspices of Hanna brothers,
the entire adult population of the city
met at the Hotel de West, and from
there proceeded to the home of Mr..
and Mrs. S. G. Barnes. 1t was a COM
plete surprise, and the crowd, some
fifty or more in number, spent the
evening very pleasantly. The party
was given in honor of the sixtieth
birthday anniversary of Mr.. Barnes.
David Hanna made a humorous speech
to the genial host, after which he pre-
sented to Mr.. Barnes a handsome gold
watch, the gift of the assembled
friends. After the substantial refresh
ments were served, delicious ice cream
and cake followed. At a late hour the
guests took their departure, after
wishing Mr.. Barnes many happy re-
turns of his anniversary, and a safe
Journey to him and his wife on their
trip to Ohio, where they intend going
at an early date to spend the summer.

Another event of Importance was a
party held the same evening at the
| Hotel de West in honor of the four
teenth birthday of Johnnie West.
Some thirty or more young people
were present, including Miss Elsie
Sherman and Miss Allie Handy, of

at games, ETC., refreshments were
served. The gay crowd did not dis
perse until a late hour, and everybody
expressed themselves as having had a
thoroughly good time.

Quite an amusing time was had at
the races on the Champs Elysees west
of town. Saturday. Dennis Brothers
took first prize, after which, as their
horse did not ruiz again, a general,
free-for-all race was run, and, as a
matter of course, everybody beat and
went away satisfied that he himself
possessed the running horse of the
town. However, we all enjoyed our
selves immensely, as it has been many
a long day since u burg has had a
good horse race. We will have an
other next Saturday.
