Oberlin, Feb. 2o-This city can fur
nish as good If not better showing
than any town in northwest Kansas
Oberlin is in Decatur county, and all
her corn growers say that in the year
1906 more corn was raised in the
county. beating any record heretofore
since its organization.
In the last year no less than seventy
five residences were constructed in
Oberlin, and at this time the work Of
building no less than a dozen more is
under way.
Among the new public improve
ments for Oberlin this year is a high
school building at a cost of SIS. 1000,
an opera house at a cost of $4,000 to
$4,000. and the remodeling of the
Metropole hotel at a cost of about
$40 200. Besides many new residence
buildings win be added, and two or
more miles Of cement sidewalks

OF Oberiin, the town is hard to beat

time since the pioneer settlers selected
this townsite when Oberlin has had
such a good future. The town de-
serves the best of prosperity, for her
business men have won for her a first

The Beloit Branch Makes a Splendid

The Beloit Branch Makes a Splendid
Showing.
Beloit. Feb. 20.-The Women's Foreign
Missionary society of the NJ. E. church
is increasing with wonderful rapidity.
Beloit belongs to what Is known as the
Topeka branch of the society.
The northwest Kansas conference in
cIudes the counties west Of Dickinson,
Clay and Washington. The secretary
and treasurer, Mrs. Ella, Baker, wife Of
the Rev. f. D. Baker, presiding elder
Of the Beloit district, resides here. She
is very much devoted to the work Of this
society having filed the same position
for more than twenty years. She has
seldom missed either a conference or a
district convention.
IN this time she has oraginzed more
than fifty missionary societies, and has
collected over $1,000 a year for the past
three years. There is one phase of Wo-
mems work not generally known. The
club women are a, strong factor in the
intellectual, philanthropic and civic adj
yancement throughout all Chr1sIendoTn,
but the church life of the women, both
in local and foreign work, is not com
mented on generally by the newspapers
The State of Kansas, the Methodist de-
nomination, says:
Mrs Baker has four secretaries who
give of their time to carry on the Work
in their respective territory by organic
ing societies and holding conventions to
enlist all in the wonderful work. Sew
eraI missionaries have gone from the
state and many thousands Of dollars
are raised each year in this state alone
to carry on the work. But the women s
missionary work extends all over the
limited states. and England, Germany
and Canada, and today all denomina-
lions are studying the same books in
reference to the work Of missions.
Mrs. Baker travels several hundred
miles a year in the work of organizing
missions and doing good. having visited
every town Of any size IN the territory.
Her heart is in the cause Of the good
work
