door sleeper pass to Liberal the
first of the week, returning after
a few days on the same pass.

day.
From the actions and noise
made by some of the boys the
past few days we are inclined to
think that this is not such dry
town, after all.

few days last week but at pres
ent is able to be at his place of
| business

Der for l.. Frazier last Thursday

which was sent him by his son
Pell as Christmas present.
DIED-At his home eight miles
north of Fowler, on last Friday
at II p. m, Mr.. A. ]. McCauley
was called from the tolls of this
earth to that evergreen shore.
The cause of his death was a par
attic stroke, which came very
suddenly and unexpected.
Fred Coffel1 carefully brushed
the Meade county dust off his
shoes and bid farewell to her peo-

send with him our best wishes,
but expect to see him back here
before year is past.
c. R. Rocdiger, the hustler for
the M. w. A. has been in our
city for several days looking after

a new riding pillow and says this
thing of walking is thing of the
past.
Several of our young people at
| tended the literary at the Green
school house last Friday night
and all report a good program,
but order was not the best. We
wonder why there are some peo-
pie that go to such places for the
sole purpose of making a noise
and causing disturbance.

was up exchanging yarns and
transacting business last Friday
and Saturday. He took with him
a new organ which had lately

last Saturday to spend Xmas,
from Nickerson where she has
been going to school for the past

day night. A large crowd attend
ed and a good program was rem
dered. Everybody went home
with their hands full of presents
and their pocckts full of candy.

one day last week calling on the
| people at the hub.
| Hazel Sims is the latest to join
the ''wheelmen's van" of Fowler

wheel and is now taking her first
lessons.
