He will be assisted each evening by
Miss Mabel Ault, who will render
two select readings each night. The
people of this town know of Miss
Ault's ability to entertain. These
lectures and readings will be given
in Bruce's hall. Single tickets will
be sold at % cents, but tickets for
the entire course will be sold for 30
cents. All proceeds owes and above
expenses will go for the benefit OF
the new Christian church. Many of
our people have heard Mr.. Hester in
short talks on his recent trip and
say he is worth going a long ways
to hear.
He spoke thirty-five nights, most
OF the time before large audiences

To ALL DEMOCRATIC VoTERs:-
If there ever was a time in the
history of the democratic party
for the manifestation of loyalty
and patriotism on the part of its
members, i, is right now.
If we are to win a victory and
elect a president two years hence,
we must first elect a house of rep
resentatives this fall. A demo
cratic house can and will investi-
gate every department OF the
government. With all of them
honeycombed by graft" the
edges of which only, have been
touched by recent exposure and
prosecutions, there will be rev.
elation of rottenness that will
astound the country and create a
demand for democratic admin
istration to clean the government
workshop.
To win the house we need
money to defray legitimate ex-
penses and get out our vote. We
have no protected monopolies
from which to draw to fill our
Golfers. as they do those of the
republican party. We must,
therefore, appeal to loyal demo-
Gratis for contributions.
Will you send us 81 90 at once,
and in return for this we will send
you copies of our campaign liter
ature issued by the committee
You will have the thanks of the
entire democratic party for your
favorable response to our request.

School Column.

AS announced last week, the
Paonia schools will open Mon
day, October 1st, and we urge
upon all parents and pupils the
great benefit arising from con-
tinuous attendance. The pupil
who begins late in the term and
is kept out day or so of each
week cannot possibly keep up
with his fellows who are in every
day. The boy who is in but
seven months cannot hope to do
the work that is outlined for nine
months. 1t is we'll known fact
among teachers that the pupils
who become discouraged and
drop out are, in the main, those
pupils who enter so late and are
kept out or remain out so much
that interest is lost. Such pupils
become discouraged with the
hopeless task of maintaining their
places with others who attend all
the time. 1t is also we'll known
that the pupils who remain out
the most need the instruction of the
school the worst. The public
school system is maintained at
great expense. Is it wise or SEN
sible in a community to meet this
expense and then permit a large
number of pupils to remain out
entirely or attend so irregularly
as to realize no benefit from the
school? Public sentiment should
be so strong upon this point that
no child would be kept out for
any small reason. A child's edu
cation is so important to himself
and to the state that it must not
be denied him. My child is not
my own to do with as | please
but mine to make of him all that
he is capable of, in order that he
may be of value to the state. |
am, rather, his sacred guardian
than his owner. He is a distinct
individual placed in my charge
during his years of indiscretion.
The school is organized to help
me develop this individual into
trained and helpful member of
society. But the school cannot
help me unless give it chance
to do so by heartily cooperating
with it. Let this be the attend
ance motto for the coming year,
Every pupil present every day
on time unless unavoidably de-
tanned"
The teachers and school Of
fcers will meet at the central
building, high school room, at
200 p. m. Saturday, September
20 for the discussion of questions
concerning the welfare of the
schools.

pleased expression of interest that came
into the eyes of one destined to never
see the poem in print.
Sending the letter and poem was the
beginning of a correspondence which
lapsed one time for a few years. Then
letter directed to Miss NJ. a. Culhane.
as usual was answered by Mrs. Frank
Murray, of Minneapolis, Mimi. and last
Spring a kind letter of invitation was
sent the unknown Illinois correspon-
dent. with the suggestion that the ad
vantage be taken of the reduced rates
for the c. A. r. Encampment to be
held at Minneapolis in August. to come
and meet her her husband. the three
little girls. and the soldier father, Mr..
Culhane. from Kilkenny, who would
also be entertained at her home during
the Encampment week, and we met for
the first time at the Station in Mime
apolis. the evening of Aug. 13, and
have been most cordially entertained
by my unknown correspondent, for the
welcome she gave was so true and so

Naturalization of Veterans.

William Bowden. 1891 Edison Ave-.
Johnstown. Pa. says that he came from
England when between II and IL years
old, and took the oath of allegiance Il
the United States when he enlisted in
the army in the 136th Pa. He was
honorably discharged from that regi-
ment, and re-enlisted in the 21st Pa
Cav, from which lie was discharged a,
the end of the war. He was wounded
and carries the bullet in him yet, and
has two saber cuts on his head Yet
when he went to register he was denied
the privilege because he did not have
any naturalization papers.
1t seems astonishing that in the good
old State of Pennsylvania such a thing
could happen, but it can be easily reme-
died by going before the next court and
taking out final papers, the cost OF
which is nominal In the case of vet
