Mr.. Diameter, on account Of In
creasing business, has found it neces-
sary to employ an extra clerk

Kindly notice who, as a rule, are op-
posing the bonds and see how nluch d.
rect interest they have in our schools

We are very much disappointed
that an evening could not be arranged
for Prof. Hill to deliver his lecture to
the normaltes.
My, what a popping there would be
if some one should drop a lighted
match in that west window of BoS-
ebert & Williams.
Prof. Bowen had better study the
geography Of Chanute little more
carefully before the next social, or
else employ guide
The magnificent rain last Saturday
evening, though it temporarily stop
ned the binders, did the growing
"ops world of good.
-
The Kansas City undertaken who
bid to bury the pauper dead one bill
| ionth Of cent per head must nave
figured the cost down to a fine point.

The pops say the "blasted Republl-
cans" Slipped in ahead of them few
days with their convention with a
view of stealing their "campai ga
thunder"
The action of 4th ward man in OPP
posing the school bonds seem as much
out Of place as it did for the members
of the board in the Second. ward to
oppose the call,
Dan Wickard is home from Colo
RADIO. Dan says if he had just dream
ed of all these pretty school marms
going to be in Chanute he never
would have left.
1t seems little early yet, boys, to
be naming the next State Senator
Circumstances may change little be-
tore ,,!e time comes around for the
senatorial campaign.

The ice-cream social in the Fourth
ward school yard Saturday night was
enjoyed hugely by the young people,
ard. was quite financial success TO
the society giving 1t.

The interrified .had loud time at
their state convention in Kentucky
1t looks very much like the Republi-
cans will have another victory this
fall in that Bourbon strong hold.

Parents need not be afraid to send
their young boys and girls to the
State Normal School at Emporia.
Their moral health as well as physi-
cal will be carefully looked after.
-
The new Pop court Of visitation
seems to be quite an expensive luxury
to the state. No one seems to have
any use for it except the members OF
the court, who draw fine salaries from
the state and do nothing.
-
Fletch Markle's usual reputation
for sedate habits and retlcent DISPOSE
ton was badly shattered by the re-
ports that went out about him Sun
! day. We heard one young lady say
that fetch had just little too much
lip for any Use.
We noticed the other day our huStl'
ing candidate for register of deeds,
Mr.. Stone, pulling out from the store
of Mccormick Il Rankin two SlX-foOt
mowers and a twelve-foot steel rake.
1t would seem Candidate Stone be-
Iieves in making hay while the sun
shines.
The teachers are row sweltering un-
der the trying ordeal Of an eXamlna-
tion for certificates. There are strong
arguments against these eXamina-

our strong educational institutions.

Success in life depends Oh constant
effort intelligently applied, Spasmod-

some other way"
This week closes the most success
full normal ever held in NeOsho county
as regard good work on the part OF the
125 actual teachers in attendance.
The instruction in theories of teach
ing has been particularly good and
these teachers will all go to their work
