MINNESOTANS CONGREGATE
IN FIRST REUNION

minnesota must feel lonesome with
so many of her sons and daughters pres
ent here this evening", was a remark
made by one in attendance upon the
first annual reunion of Minnesotans,
held on Thursday evening last. The
spacious Woodmen hall over the post
office never contained a larger or happier
throng. Many found old neighbors,
whom they supposed to be still in the
gopher state. Old times were talked
over and "reminiscences seemed to be in
order. About 9 o'clock the president of
the Society OF Minnesotans called the
Assem- blage to order and in few re-
marks stated the purpose OF the society,
and the reasons why better social feel
ing should be fostered among the people
from that state who had found new
bones in the beautiful and productive
Yakima valley. The meeting was then
turned over to Chairman Drew Of the
entertainment committee. Mr. Drew
read kilograms from ex-Governors
Clough and Lind, expressing their re-
grets at not being able to be present.
Mr.. and Mrs. II. F. Thompson gave a
violin and piano Duet, which was well
received, and was followed by the min.

A Financial Success.

The first of a series of parties to be
given by those interested in the Home
Finding Association for children, head
quarters at Spokane, was held last
Thursday afternoon in the spacious
rooms of Mrs. Alex. Miller's home on
North Second street. There were about
rs ladies present and a program of some
length, together with refreshments,
fully compensated each and every one
for their cheerful donation of 80 cents
per. Thirty-eight dollars was cleared.
The entertainment was unique and
enjoyable, in fact the invitations called
for colonial party, though many of the
ladies refused to array themselves in
colonial attire.
The program consisted of the follow
ing numbers: First every one joined in
singing "The Old Oaken Bucket" then
Mrs. Wallis Williams responded to her
name in rendering a very appropriate
recitation Mrs. Nation told story
of the pioneer days, followed by Mrs.
Watt in a reading from Eugene Field,
Miss Marion Miller sang, Miss Alice J.
Kimball also sang, Mrs. Matthews re.
cited and the program ended with every
one joining in the GLORIOUS of "Auld

spare moments in which to mingle in

entirely from memory. About 30 re-
sponded with drawings, which were
handed to the judges. Miss Lottie Fisk
won first prize, amounting to box of
fancy stationery from Mr.. Dam. Howard
Thompson came in second, the prize
being a subscription to THE HERALD.
There were many very creditable maps,
but these two contained the best detail
work, such as the locating of cities, lakes,
rivers, railroads, etc.
An effort was made to get list OF
those present together with the name OF
the county from which they came, but
many got away before the roll reached
them. Below is a list of those present
who signed the roster:

The Cheerful Woman.

The woman who is always cheerful
and Obliging is a boon to those with
whom she is associated.
Availability that springs from q
vell-regulated and cultivated mind
and heart is the amiability that will
stand the wear and tear of the most
bitter experiences that can come to-
woman.
1t Is not indifference, because the
woman who feels most deeply is often
the one whose cheerful presence and
refined concealment of the griefs and
troubles that are nearly crushing
her, has been well-tutOred in such
lessons of self-control wherein pride
and self-respect deny to the world at
large knowledge that is so freighted
with humiliation.
The world is much like Il mirror
and gives back the reflection it re-
ceives. you gaze into it with a
scowling, disagreeable face you see
that face reflected, and the world
soon criticises mercilessly the face
that betrays what it should take
pains to conceal.
The cheerful woman is a blessing,
and that cheerfulness can be cultiva-
ted is patent on every side. Some of
the most amiable, lovely women are
the greatest sufferers. But it is a
well-esta blished fact that the greatest
sufferers are the most silent and
patient.

As To General Miles
News and Observer.


The papers are having much to say
about the snub given to Gen. Miles
bv the President upon the retirement
OF the commanding general OF the
army. Even those who do not ad-
mire Gen. Miles have criticized the
slight and regard it as small and
mean.
At banquet in New York some
years ago, Roosevelt stopped over"
in praise OF Miles. Since then Miles
has not at all points been i'll accord
with the administration and the
President once publicly rebuked him,
and now snubs him. 1t is said that
Secretary Root wrote a courteous
letter to Gen Miles, recounting his
bravery and his public. service, but
that Mr.. Roosevelt took it up. MIR.
Roosevelt can be as ruthless and as
vicious in his dislikes as any man
that lives. He does not have those
teeth for nothing. His hatred OF
Gen. Miles is altogether due to the
fact that Miles did not kiss the smit-
ing hand and did not play the toady
10 Tie TSSlucllU. 1le COulu hot ~
move Miles, he could not iniure him,
he could only vent his spleen at him.
Evidently the President has been
studying Pope on how to retire a
general. Pope sang:
Damn with faint praise, assent with civil
leer,
And without sneering teach the rest to
sheer
Willing to wound, and yet afraid to strike,
Just hint fault, and hesitate dislike"
The suggestion of Miles as the
Democratic nominee for President is
absured. There is no reason why he
should be named and the suggestion
is not treated seriously The South
supported Horace Greedy cordially
because when the South was in the
ashes of defeat, he was generous and
noble. 1t would not forgive Gen.
Miles because heput chains on Jeffer-
son Davis-an indignity that was
brutal.

Helping the Country Boy.

The greatest need of the farm boy is
the knowledge of his work. This need
can only be met by an earnest determi-
nation on the part of every country boy
to get an education Thousands of young
men do not care to leave the farm; their
wish is to remain there and make a sue
cess of life; and there can be no greater
ambition nor more worthy one than
this. Every parent, every citizen should
feel an obligation to help this boy. He
should be encouraged and filled with hope
and sunshine. Farming will pay in dol
lars and cents; it will pay in the strong
manhood it makes; it will pay in the true,
honest citizenship it insures to our State.
The future farmer needs a knowledge
of his work; he must know how to i'm
prove the soil and maintain it's fertility;
how to protect his crops from insect enc
mics and diseases; he must know farm
animals; how to breed them; how to feed
them; how to manage them; he must
understand and practice crop rotation
and know how to fertilize his crops
These are a few things he must know
The boy who will adapt himself to
these conditions, who will learn now
about these things, will make a success
of farming; he will he a successful farmer
and an honor to the State.
Why not then, young man, get an agri
cultural education? Decide now that
you will The A. & NJ. College waits to
help you. It's doors are open to give you
help and instruction. 1t is yours, for it
was established to help you. Write for
a catalogue and information about the
agricultural courses, and then arrange to
spend at least year at the A. 4 Nj. Col
lege 1t will open a new world to you
and you will return better prepared to
help yourself and better fitted to help the
State.
On September End the session begins.
so you have no time for delay. Begin
your preparation now; talk the matter
over with your parents, and with your
chum and decide that you will not neg
lect the opportunity to prepare yourself
