most comprehensive write up of
Thomas county in Kansas. We
were surprised at the statistics
shown proving the wonderful fer
tility and natural wealth in that
country we so often judge as being
the home of the beetle and the
scorpion and the centiped. Statistics
showed a vast farm belt and good
markets, schools, churches, stock
farms and plenty of blooded stock.

An Anniversary Celebration

Unquestionably the social event of the
early summer season in Bristol was the
anniversary lawn party given Monday
evening at the pretty home of Mr.. and
Mrs. +. l.. Hasseltine on East street.
The guests. who numbered in the vicin-
ity of one hundred, began to arrive early
in the evening, and they found the
interior of the house beautifully decor
ated with evergreens, ferns and roses,
while an artistic arrangement of Jap
anese lanterns and torches gave the
proper festive air to the spacious lawn.
The Bristol Military band, of which
Mr., Hasseltine is member, was in at
tendance and gave a number of selec-
tions in its best style and spirit. The
evening was not so warm as some that
have followed this week, but the lemon
ade jar, with its adornment of ferns, and
faithfully attended by Mrs. Della Fergu-
son and Miss Lulu Atkins, was an at
tractive feature.
Tables were spread on the lawn in
front of the house and shortly after
midnight dainty supper was served.
Mrs. F. &. Haskins, Mrs Garry Narney
Mrs, Susie Hatch, f. q. Haskins and G.,
d. Draper otficiated walters.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hasseltine were presented
a purse of money by the party and when
the guests departed at an early hour il
was with the kindly wish that their host
and hostess might celebrate many other
anniversaries in the years to come.

this peculiarity is even more marked.
On the Puerta del Sol about thousand
people stand around and do nothing

indoors or lean from balconies to
watch them do it. And in Seville the

famous baritone singer "Franklyn
Beattie," and illustrated by moving pic
lures, was alone well worth the price of
admission Indeed it was a wonderful
illustration of the well known musical
composition that is always a great favor
ite, when well rendered. And while it
has sometimes been illustrated by stere-
opticOn views. no one has ever before
attempted to give the moving picture
effect. In fact. it was quite awe inspir-
