PERI We wish to congratulate our
friend of the Eagle, who was a visitor
at the Teachers Reading Circle of
Goodland, for his excellent reproduc-
tlon OF our programme. He must
nave line memory, or else was good
shorthand writer. We are glad to
know that we had such a master mind
present at our meeting, but regret that
we did not have the privilege of hear
ing him speak. He surely could have
given us some light upon the mysteri.
Gus subjects with which we were deal.
ing. The Good Book says: "Never
weary in we'll doing" and we think If
our friend was an honest fellow he
ought to have lent us a helping hand
We certainly were in sore straits, and
any little help would have been greatly
appreciated. We need just such
strong minds as our friend has, in
order that we may properly carry on
our R. G. work.
We earnestly request our friend to
be present at our next meeting; and
please don't sit back with folded arms.
but lend us some aid with your words
of eloquence. Education is certainly
very important and we need the wlsest
and best of men to carry it along.
