"Sociai Purity"
F. D. WEST, Auct.

Rev. w. II. Williams. the evange.
list who has been conducting a series
of revival meetings iu the Methodist
Episcopal church in this place for the
past two weeks, delivered forceful
and timely talk last sunday after
noon to men only on the subject of
l. Social Purity" His remarks were
straight and to the point. aud his
hearers accorded him their closest
attention all through his earnest~dis-
course. Rev. Williams handled the
subject in An able manner, and dwelt
largely upon the social immortality of
the present day and the physical
degeperacy which will be it's natural
result in generations TO come.
wicked ness is weakness; purity is
power The speaker enlarged upon
this obviously apparent truth in a
forceful manner, and related several
instances of everyday life 10 better

1t is to be hoped that his remarks
wll not be without some beneficial
effects.

HedgeS--S chwarZ.

Mr.. Blair Hedges and Miss Emma
Schwarz, of Offerle, were joined in
marriage Tuesday morning at half
past nine o'clock by Judge Blanchard
at his office in the court house. The
young people were accompanied by
only few of their friends. 1mme-
diately following the ceremony the
party drove to the Schwarz home
near Offerle where all preparations
had been made for celebrating the
event in proper style. The "Old
Settlers ~ tent was standing on the
lawn and within were tables fairly
overloaded with good things to cat
and drink. The two hundred guests
who gathered at this hospitable board
are loud in their praises of the good
people who had prepared such rare
treat for them. After the comfort of
all had been provided for the tables
were cleared away and such of the
young people as were so disposed
spent the afternoon in dancing, while
their elders sang and told sto les in
the good old fashioned way, until the
lengtheniug shadows of evening, and
an internal hint, admonished them
that it was time to again attend to the
wants of the inner man. The tables
were again spread and u large num-
Der of the guests who were still re-
manning partook of supper. The
evening was spent with dancing and
games as usual. A large number of
people from this city attended and re-
port that the young people were the
recipients of many presents, both use
full and ornamental.

Kansas Society for the Friendiess.

About two years ago. the above
society was organized for the purpose
of rendering necessary aid to dis
charged prisoners. The work is now
being carried forward by general
superf ntendent and three district
superintendent. The superintendent
for Southwest Kansas, Rev. George
S. Kicker, of Wichita, spent a few
days in this city during the past
week, presenting the work in the
churches and soliciting subscriptions.
We understand that our citizens re-
sponded to this worthy cause with
their wonted generosity.
This society, in union with the AS
sociati on of Charities and Correc
tions, will hole it's annual meeting in
Lawrence next week, November 1921.
A very interesting program has been
prepared and distinguished speakers
will be in attendance. Our great
state is becoming more and more
deeply interested in the great ques-
tions relating to the progress of hui
mainly, and especially in those ques-
tions relating to our dependent.
defective, or delinquent classes. The
convention next week is likely to give
great impulse to the forward move
ment in behalf of the lowly.
