Tom Ullery, who lives out in
Buffalo township, is a good old soul,
but few days ago, he, for once in
his life, gave some advice which he
should have needed himself. He
and young man were handling
some wheat, which we are told had
to be carried up a stairway. Tom
told the young man to let him carry
it as he was stronger. He feared
the boy would hurt himself. The
boy consented, Tom carried the
wheat, did what he thought the boy
would do, viz, wrenched his back, and
now uses a cane. Tom does not
know he is not as young as he once
was
Elmer Epperson and family have
tired of city life, and hiked out, bag
and baggage, for the farm. Elmer
says it is Mrs. Epperson's fault, as
she wished to be where she could
raise chickens. Mrs. Epperson
intimates that it is his fault, as he did
not like easy work, preferring to
cultivate corn and feed the pigs.
Epp. always was an industrious lad
and we are pleased to know his
habits in that direction have not
been reformed.

Some people seem to think that to
force the building of sidewalk is
an unnecessary hardship. Every
foot of sidewalk built increases the
value of abutting property more than
the cost of the walk.

Sometime last Sunday night some
zone stole into the yard of Mrs. Alois
farmer, who lives near Odin, and
removed the taps from the left front
wheel of a spring wagon, also from the
wheel of a lumber wagon, and when
Mrs. farmer started for the creamery
the next morning the wheel ran off,
and came near causing a serious
accident. She had first hitched to
the spring wagon, and when the
wheel came off of it, she hitched to
the lumber wagon, with the same
results. Mrs. farmer is young
widow, who by her own work is
attempting to support herself and
little ones, and pay for her farm.
Certainly the man or men who have
played such low, contemplate trick
are not worthy the esteem and friend
ship of their neighbors. No knowl-
edge of the perpetrators has been
obtained.

Thanks, Gentlemen.

Nearly all of the Exchanges which
reach our Office are ELUSIVE in their
compliments of our Easter Edition
and laud the enterprising business
men of our city for their liberal
patronage. Space and modesty
prevent US from publishing the many
good words, still we believe the fol-
lowing worthy of room:
The Easter number of the BARTON
COUNTY DEMOCRAT was a cracker
jack and no mistake. The title page
was a full page illustration, in colors,
appropriate to the occasion, then
there were twenty pages of advertise
ments. The ads were all tastefully
set in the most artistic style and there
were about 100 different firms and
individuals represented in this depart
ment, while the reading matter was
arranged in a most attractive manner.
AS a whole we would pronounce it the
greatest, best and most attractive
edition of a country newspaper ever
gotten out in Western Kansas, and it
speaks volumes for the town of Great
Bend, whose business men recognize
the value of printers ink, and the en-
terprise of the publishers, who since
the consolidation with the Beacon, are
making the DEMOCRAT one of the best
weeklies in the state.-Rush Centre
Breeze.
We are in receipt of the Easter
Edition of the BARTON COUNTY
(Kansas) DEMOCRAT, published at
Great Bend, with the compliments of
Mrs. John A. Sterrett. 1t consists of
20 pages, the front page being beauti-
fully embelished in colors with Easter
flowers and two young ladies seated
in an automobile on their way TO a
church which is seen in the distance,
and the paper is filled with the local
news of the county and the rapid
strides Great Bend is making toward
a city.-Port Royal (Pa.) Times.
