bars have been let down to let Topeka
in. and the trio becomes a quartet.
Topeka has always acted like a dear
sister to Atchison, and the interest she
has taken in the Corn Carnival over

were left. We simply can't get along
without Topeka without any less
affection for Wichita and Leavenworth,
whom we shall always love, we must
admit that Topeka is a sweet old thing.
