conference.-the love-light in the eyes.
These expressions have never yet been

The sound of the reYeille from Major
Mallonee's headquarters at the city park
early Tuesday morning heralded the
opening of the Southwestern Veterans
Ninth Annual reunion. The park south
of the main drive from east to west was
a city of tents, and many of the tents
were Inhabited by the early arrivals at
the great annual event of southwest Kan
sas. The dark itself is q revelation to
those who saw it this year for the first
time. The stately trees stand as a mon
ument to the name of r. NJ. Wright OF
this place, who years ago did the greatest
public act which has ever been done by
any one man in the county, when he
Nvaded through acres of swamp land south
of town and stuck down thousands of
twigs in rows some distance apart. The
twigs took root and grew into stately
trees. The Arkansas river in its annual
spring oYerf1ows year by year brought
soil and sand. some of it clear from Col
orado, and filed up the swamp The
old settlers have seen the park built bit
by bit. During the past two years public
spirited citizens have gone about to i'm
prove the park and they will continue
the work. Messrs- Reeves and Kirkpatrick
