Sun and Lake City Happenings

Gee whiz! how it rains.
Mrs. Rogers begins music lessons
this week.
Miss Pet Thompson went to Coats
last Friday.
Miss Shell, daughter of Prof. Sh ell,
visited in Lake few days last week.
Miss Lena Shigley entertained the
Lake school to several pieces of music
last week.

mixed quartette OF Lake, the choir a1d
congregation.
Repre- Of Lake and SUN
City school districts met in JOINT con
fab at Medicine Saturday.
William SHUTS has thu incest bunch
of Thoroughbred ShCrthorn cattle we
noticed for some time.
Sam Eager and Murray DAVIS have
been raising cane" at j. a. Camp
BELLS this week-might be better to
say shocking cane.
Fred Lake is pretty good on duck
shooting winged duck, of course). He
killed some dandles last week.
George Hastings says he made. a hit
by sending his cattle to X. g. when he
did. lie struck lucky market, that's
all.
Sun City has weather bureau. Every
time Mr.. Harris has a rheumatic stroke,
says he, ''LCok out boys, we're going
to have hard weather!' And so we do.
Some people complain that this part
of Barber county is the jumping off
place but fortunately everybody doesn't
see 1t that way. y. j. Corliss was of
fered 500 per acre for his alfalfa farm.
These figures are high sounding, but
not SO much so when we consider that
four years growth of the weed will pay
for it every inch.
Next Sunday is S. 5. convention day
al Lake City and as We haven't the
Cabling" gift in the publics pres
ence, will ask the Index for minutes
private chat. Having attended these
conventions irIegularly for quite a
number OF years, we are thoroughly
convinced that the results fall far short
of what they should be. In these meet
ings the Sunday school teachers and
workers get ''riled'' up aud in the heat
OF their enthusiasm, can draw the pref
test picture, present the best theory OF
how 10 maintain a School that one eV-
Oh imagined. But take notice. follow
these persons after the convention Is
over and see If they really try TO adhere
to the principles in the home, for which
they stood so firmly. 1t is very notice
able that the majority do not. hence we
see this great big amount of Sunday
School interest doesn't even get out
side the convention hall. If after hav-
ing attended these meetings, light has
been received that is not used, or the
DRY advanced that is not practiced, and
most of all, If something has not been
done to influence some one into the
path that leads through the Pearly
Gates, then time and words are lost,
the Convention" a sham and the Al
mighty Father dissatisfied with results.
Let every body turn out next Sunday
and don't forget and over reach by
suggesting methods that you never ex-
pect TO practice.
