What Cheer Patriot: The lecture
by Rev. Somerville, of Oskaloosa, at
the M. E. church Wednesday evening
was fairly well attended and was
highly entertaining. Rev. Somer-
vile is man of splendid physique
and ample proportions. His talent
for entertaining and at the same time
wholesome truths upon
his hearers is remarkable. His des-
criptive power is good. He is not
especially an orator, but one of those
big, warm-hearted, whole-souled,
sensible fellows, whom you like at
first sight, because you can't L y it.
His lecture is we'll worth the price.
We should enjoy hearing it again.

The attendance has been cut down in
the public schools a little during the
last two or three weeks on account of
chickenpoX and bad colds.
All the public schools of the city are
preparing to observe George Washing
toms birthday tomorrow afternoon.
The feeling seems to be quite gener-
al that the bright, active, happy chill
dren Of Santa Fe are worthy of going
to school in nice, modern school houses.
Not many parents of the 700 children
enrolled in the Santa Fe public schools
are able to give their children for
tune or to set them up in some fine
business, but with a little extra effort
they can give them what is far better,
and that is good education which will
enable them to do well and live hap
