READY TO LET CONTRACT.

Is south of the Union stock yards and just
south OF Chisholm creek ard it has not
been reached by the high water The
Great Western Manufacturing Company
OF Leavenworth has prepared the plans

ceiving bids from manu fscturers for ma
chiuerv and the contract will be let AT

GOOD THINGS TO EAT"
Supplies May
Be Cut Off,.

The terrible foods and unprecedent-
ed high water throughout the west Is
paralyzing freight traffic Railroads
have been rushed for months past
Now washouts and high water make
freight uncertain. II would be a good
plan for you TO lay in a supply Of gro
ceries to last a while We are pre-
pared to supply you with the best OF
everything the market affords. No
order too small. none too large for Us
to I'll promptly. and We hope to al
ways be able 10 do so; but under the
present flooded condition OF the coun-
try some source Of supply may be cut
of. II would be the part Of wisdom 70
lay in a good supply. Phone US your
order today.

The board recommended that the bonds
should be issued in $500 and $l.00 lots and
running with 10 and 20 years each bearing
and AZ per cent interest. The bonds
will be duly advertised and as several
banking institutions have offered to take
them the board expects little difficulty IN
disposing of the bonds.
The building and grounds committee
recommended a number of repairs and i'm
provements that should be made during
the vacation and as the board deemed
them all necessary the report OF the com
mittee was adopted. The roofs of all the
city school buildings will be reprinted
three rooms in Lincoln school Will be
papered, three rooms Will be papered at
the Kellogg school, Park school mouse
will be papered and the broken windows
will be fitted with new glass, Emerson

outside and papered within, four rooms in
the Franklin school building will be pa
pered and the wood work vanished, Web
ster school building will be painted out
side and in, and the old broken down steps
will be replaced, while the high school
building will be painted. The whole cost
Of this work and the material TO be used

To the notices which we have from
time to time published of the favorable
posture of trade we may add graft
flying view of our commerce with the
United States. Its extent is probably
more considerable than our readers
would imagine. The exports from
Scotland of manufactured goods to va
rious parts of the Union will this year
amount to about 100000. The mag
nitude of the sum will appear more
surprising when we consider the re-
strictions which prohibit us from TAX
ing In exchange agricultural produce.
A trade so important it behooves us to
cherish with all possible care. and it is
gratifying to think that customers so
valuable are free people, little likely
to impede her prosperity by projects of
ambition.-London Globe, 1922.

A PECULIAR HOTEL.
It's Rooms Named For States Instead
of Being Numbered.

'In a little town in the 6ackwoods Of
Mississippi" remarked a travelling
man, there is a peculiar hotel. 1t is
just like any other hotel except in the
way the rooms are named. They are
not numbered, as is generally done,
but each room is named for state Of
the United States.
when 1 stopped at the place. l was
assigned to room called Delaware
1t was correctly named, too, for it was
one of the smallest rooms in the house.
A man who was occupying New
Hampshire made complaint to the
landlord that the man in Maine WIS
drunk and boisterous and was thus
keeping him awake. This seemed
strange, when we recall that Maine is
q prohibition state. Two men up in
Montana were keeping up the repu-
taton of the wild west by engaging in
a noisy poker game. A big, fat CAPT
talist had New York. which was the
best room in the house. The room
named for Alabama is too ordinary for
anything, and farmer was occupying

at was funny to stand in the office
and hear a bellboy tell the clerk that
towels were wanted in Iowa and that
the fellow In North Dakota was kick
ing like a steer because he had no fire!
Send two Manhattan cocktails up to
Mississippi was one of the orders that
the clerk gave. BE sure to call the
man in Florida at o'clock in the morn

thus it went. This hotel is a curiosity
to the travelling public. 1t is conduct
ed by an eccentric old fellow, but
where he conceived the idea of naming
rooms after states I do not know. -
