the cruise Of the American feet to the
Pacific as though war between the
United States and Japan had already
been declared. The strength of the
American and Japanese armament

of suggestions whether or not Admir-

fective against the sea power of the
Mikado.

Just because the general council
has not ordered concrete sidewalks
laid. is no reason why anybody's
brick sidewalk should be allowed to
dfsintegrate until pedestrians get
their feet wet walking on it, or the

pedestrians by reason of the bad
condition of the walks.

Automobiles have become so plenti-
full In Kansas that automobile block
AIDES at the county fairs are a common
occurance. At the Butler county fair
one day last week the tourist cars
choked the main entrance to the fair
grounds and the management found it
necessary to announce that farmers
from the west half of the state, who
came in their autos, should enter
from the north gate and those from
the east half of the county should
enter from the south gate in order to
avoid blockade. Three panels of
fence had to be taken down to provide
an exit for all the autos. Lindsborg
