Kansas City Correspondence.

1t occurs to US that few lines from
this Metropolitan headquarters Of the
Central west may be Of interest to the
readers Of the HERALD.
1t is fact we'll known no doubt, to
the people Of northern Kansas, that
Kansas City Is rapidly developing, and
IS destined at no late day to rival Chi
cago or st Louis. The improvement is
In process Of construction and contem-
plated, are destined to contribute
argcly to the interes of the city.
Among these we mention with pride
the Star Paper Mill. This is owned
entirely and operatSd by the KANSAS
CITY STAR, which has the reputation
Of being the only paper in the United
States, that has the facilities, and
manufactures its own paper. The
construction Of this enterprise was
commenced last October; and that it
is emlnently successful appears in the
fact that i s already producing
more than enough paper to supply
both the Star and Kansas City Times,
and 1t is not running at its full capa-
city. The mill has two paper ma
chimes but only one Of them, as yet is
doing full work; and 1t may appear
quite remarkable, when we tell your
readers, that each Of those great pa
perS consume about ten tons of paper
per day.
White newspaper is made from
spruce wood, mixed with a little alum
and rosin to give it body and stiffness.
There are other woods that are used
for the manufacture of paper, such as
hemlock, poplar and few others, but
none make as good paper as the spruce
which is brought from northern for
ests. AS we understand there is not a
spruce tree within thousand miles
Of this city.
Another Of the great points connect
ed with the future development Of
Kansas City lies In the early compile
tion Of the Kansas City, Mexico and
Orient railroad, establishing a through
line from Kansas City to the city Of
Mexico, distance Of 100 miles,-a 4S
hour ride. We understand that the
deal for this road has been concluded;
aud any one familiar with the sltua-
tion will readily see that such a line
means great things, not only for Kan
Sas City but for the entire country.
Is 1t not probable that our great
railroad systems are destined, ere long
to accomplish mighty revolution In
the social, educational and political
history Of our country
We notice also that a strong move
is being made now in favor of new
Union Depot in thiscity. This enter
prise has been under contemplation
for some time, but seems to have re-
ceived new impetus since the flood
Nine feet Of water in the Union depot
at this point was not particularly en-
joyed by the skilled railroad magnates
interested In the success Of freight
and passenger trafilc at this city, and
OF course an early move in favor of a
building more safely located is what
might be expected.
Suffice 1t 1t to say that conditions
seem to prevail on all sides in this city
such as must contribute to a wonder
full development at no late date.
The great railroad systems that now
center at this point, the manufactur.
ing facilities, the bankers and capital
lists, the fine wholesale abllshments
and business magnets, the magnifi-

Phillips County Sunday School Convention. '

The Phillips County Sunday School
Convention was held at the Baptist
church in Phillipsburg July 1920 1908.
1t will be of interest to the people of
this county who were not in attendance
to know that this was the best conven-
tion ever held in the county in point of
the number in attendance and interest
taken. Through the efficient work of
the county president and his assistants
every township convention has been
held, the reports are complete, obliga-
tions met, and this is a banner Sunday
school county. Let our people rejoice
that the stand they have taken for
righteousness and temperance has been
so successful during the past year.
The following resolutions were unani-
mously adapted by this convention.
Whereas, The work of the County
Sunday School Association has enjoyed
a prosperous year, and,
Whereas, The Association anticipates
a still more prosperous future, therefore
be it
Resolved, by this Association in con-
vention assembled, that the work done
during the past year by the president
and secretary be heartily commended
and we express our thanks to them for
their faithful and untiring services. Be
it further
Resolved, that we extend to State
Secretary, j. H. Engle, our hearty ap-
probation Of his work over the state;
and the assistance rendered in this
convention. And farther be it
Resolved that since we deem it for the
best interests Of Sunday school work in
the county, we urge stricter observance
of tho Sabbath on the part Of Sunday
school people; that we consider it con-
trary to the law of God and the law Of
the state of Kansas to harvest on the
Sabbath day; and we all recommend
that township conventions as far as pos.
ible be held on any other day than the
Sabbath.

about as thick as sugar tree molasses.
Alexander also has len jars of

Opera Under Difficulties.

SignOr Ard;ti tells the following story
In his autobiography: During my first
long stay in America our company was
announced for one night, during ter
ribly cold winter, at Washington. Shall
l ever forget the bitter cold of that sea-
son? 1t was as though we had sudden
ly been transported to the arctic re-
gions, and the tleatcr in which ne had
our performance was as inadequate to
cope with the frost as though we had
fixed up a summer tent for the purpose.
Norma was the opera. and Grisi, in
stead Of appearing in her traditional
white robe with flowing folds, was
compelled to come on the stage wear
ing a huge fur cloak in which she was
huddled up almost to her eyes. The
house only really rose to the occasion
with loud bursts of laughter when
Mario made his entrance holding q
coachman's umbrella over his head
he, as Polio, being confronted by Nor
ma in their tragical meeting - under
which prosaic safeguards both artists

The roof of the theater had given way
under the weight Of a heavy fall Of
snow, and it's coating Of ice, melting
under the heat Of the gas, was stream
ing down on the artists"

How Green Turtles Feed.

The green turtles Of southern Flor
ida live in deep water and feed on sea
plants, mostly the kind called turtle
grass" which they cut off near the
roots, eating the lower parts and leav-
ing the tops floating so that it collects
in great fields and marks the spots
where the animals are to be hunted
for by the fishermen. After browsing
on such ocean pastures the green tur-
ties 60 to the mouths Of rivers for
baths of fresh water. which they seem
to need from time to time. The Flor
ida fishermen say the reptiles enter the
creeks and roll together masses OF
grass. cementing them into balls with
clay. When the turn Of the tide takes
the balls out to sea they follow them.
The fishermen watch for such balls
floating down the creeks, and when
they see them they stretch nets across
the mouths of the streams and always
catch the turtles.

he pulled her hair.
Suddenly on this unpleasant scene

about two years. He Immediately
scrambled into the melee and out again
with a tin horn, which he began to
blow nightly. He blew so loud that
it drowned out the sound of the quar-
rel. He went up to his brother and
blew the horn in his face; then he
went up to the little sister and blew
the horn in her face. The two wran-
glers stopped quarreling and laughed.
