VISITOR BEAT THE RECORD.
He Received Nine Telekrams "a Less
Than Two Days IN Country
Town.

When the Chicago man left word to
have his kilograms forwarded 20 his
temporary address on particular
Sunday he did not know that sudden
pressure of business would make his
visit in the country memorable event
for the little used telegraph Office OF
the town, says the Chronicle.
He arrived in the pretty rural village
late Saturday afternoon, and, hastily
changing his raiment, rushed away to
the golf grounds to try his skill. He
had reached the third hole OF the
course when messenger boy was seen
dashing wildly over the grounds in the
direction of the Chicagoan, waving two
yellow envelopes over his head
"Telegrams, sir" painted the boy, in
evident trepidation, as he delivered the
missiyes to the unconcerned player.
He was not the only one who showed
agitation. People on the links stopped
their game to express hope that it
was nothing serious, hope which ap-
pealed with irresistible sense of humor
to the man more accustomed TO tele-
grams than to letters.
The nonchalant man had barely
signed for the delivery of the yellow
envelopes when a second boy dashed
across the course, excitedly waving a
missive.
Telegram, SIR said the messengei,
breathlessly, and, my dear SIR began
the voice Of sympathetic gentleman
close at hand.
"Oh, It's really nothing alarming"
replied the recipient of the kilograms,
smiling in appreciation of the situa-
tion. "Just little bit ofbusiness rush,
that's all. Here, boy! You had better
take back an answer to this,' and after
speedily writing a reply the Chicagoan
turned once more to the game.
That evening during the progress of
dance in the country club two more
kilograms arrived for the man from
Chicago. Sunday morning another
was forwarded to the golf grounds by
a perspiring messenger, and in the
afternoon two more were brought for
his perusal. That finished the record
for that day, but Just as he was pack
ing his suit case preparatory for de-
parture on Monday morning the voice
Of the maid outside his door an
nounced: Telegram, sir"
When he reached the station the tele-
graph operator was hanging out Of the
window in expectation and every boy
in the town lined up at the depot to see
the man who had got nine kilograms in
less than two days.

When you see group Of farmers
talking if you will take the pains
to listen for a few minutes you
will find to your surprise that they
are not talking politics at all, but
are talking about their experience
in raising this or that, or what
kind of success they have had
with certain kinds Of stock. The
farmer has come to know that his
success in life is not dependent up
on issues or upon men but upon
his own ability to solve the quest
ions that are daily arising before
him. He has found too, that it is
much more profitable for him to
use brains to advance his own
interests rather than to attempt to
save the country while his farm
suffers. All ofwhich simply means
that better times are in store for
the southwest, for primarily all
prosperity comes from the soil.

the talk of the town this week, and
there is universal expression Of great
satisfaction, especially among the busi
ness people. We understand that a
place just outside the corporate limits
has been selected on which to erest the
plant, though the parties preferred Q
location inside if a perfect title could
have been secured We hope to see it
in operation next fall.
Mr. Wright, oae of the probe tors of
the Oil Mill, called on u this Saturday
Rorning and assured us that machinery
was contracted for, and he is here now
to make contract with some one
to build brick mill house, and other
necessary housas,l We shall have

On Friday night April 18th, at the
home Of Mr.. and Mrs. J B. Cunning |
ham a host of admiring friends and rel
adyes were gathered to welcome home |
Mr.. and Mrs. S. X Cunningham, who
were just returning from their bridal
tour.
The night was indeed beautifully typi-
cal of the well wishes Of all for the
happy young couple, being perfect, the
moon shining in resplendent loveliness.
bespeaking purity and peace, hope and
holiness, As the guests arrived they
were conducted into the cozy parlor
where the manly groom and his bonnie
bride awaited them, receiving the con-
gratulations and greetings with royal
grace and dignity
While gazing with rapture upon the
loveliness Of the queenly bride and
thinking her husband the most fortunate
of men, we also beheld the many mute
but eloquent attest ations of the exceed
ing popularity Of these young pc pie, in
the beautiful, artistic and useful pres-
ents which they received.
We had scarcely finished admiring all
the beauty and loveliness there, when
we were all ushered into the dining hall
where we beheld the artistic touch of
loving hands in the arrangement and
preparation Of the table, which was
beautifully and tastefully laid. We
thoroughly demonstrated the fact that
factions speak louder than words - on
this occasion, for while our words are
inadequate to describe the great achieves
ments of culinary art, OuI actions man
ifesled our appreciation fully OF the
many substantials and delightful deli
cacies which were served in splendid
taste. After supper the guests again
repaired to the parlor where all interest
for the moment was centered in the
bride cake by the yo1ng peop'e-and
others who were eligible, to which class
the writer does not belong. However,
we had a better opportunity to witness
the chagrin o. some of the voung(0men
who failed to cut the coveted ring. Mr.,
Wallace Cooper, brother Of the bride,
was the lucky contestant, receiving the
ring. indicating his early inclination tc
matrimony, but the fact that you failed
the first attempt to get the ring doesn
, indicate anything, Mr., Cooper. Miss
Patty Hambrick was the next lucky
one and received ten cent piece, indi'
eating riches. Miss Iona Dowdle anC
Miss Sallie Cunningham respectively
received the thimble and needle, Don

| turo of these young ladies, but time vii
