Mildred j. AshbPook.

Miss Mildred j. Ashbrook re-
Gently entered into rest in her 59th
year. She was a member of the
M. +. church, South, in Arcadia.
Earnest and consistent in Chris
tan life, faithful and true to her
profession, full of the faith that
works by love and purifies the
heart, she entered into the Joy OF
her Lord.
Her life is a record of faithful
ness. On it's pages are chronicled
the deeds of love and unselfsh-
ness of which tho world knows
nothing. Cheerful in disposition,
thoughtful of others, She made
many friensd who mourn her de-
parture. She was an efficient Sum
day School teacher for many
years-ever true to the trust COM
mitted to her keeping-she labor
ed to inspire in the hearts of her
pupils enthusiasm for good and
noble purposes. Many young
men of Arcadia Valley are strong
er, purer, better because of the
Sunday School teaching OF "Miss
Mittie" (as she was affectionately
called). In her homo she was all
that was included in the words
Mother, Cousin, Sister. The va
cant chair gives sad hearts to the
loved ones at home, to whose COM
forts she ministered, with whose
Joys she rejoiced and with whose
sorrows she wept. May they rea-
lie that she has only laid down
the to take up the crown.
May Gods blessings abide with
them. To all those who so kindly
showed their tender and gracious
sympathy in the hour of sorrow,
the family requests me to make
this public expression of thankful
apprecIation-praying that others
may minister to you as you have
done by them.

THE Summer Schools
Days Outing"

Prof. G. L. Smith and the stud
ents of the Summer School took a
days outing in the Shut-In on last
Saturday.
We also had the pleasure of Mr..
Warren Princes company, who is
a professor of the Western Mill
tary college.
Prof. Smith and the boys were
very successful in their fishing ex-
pedition, catching about As lbs. of
fish, the greater number being
bass.
The day being one Of those days
that June alone can give, the sky
was clear, and the sun bright and
warm. The gentle breezes that
tangled the curls of the fair sex on
the way could not be felt after en-
teTing the Shut-In, SO not a ripple
disturbed the peaceful waters be-
low the falls to interfere with our
fishing, and ere noon arrived a
nice string of bass had been sent
in for dinner. When we arrived
in camp such a dinner as we found
awaiting us would be inexpressi-
BILE in words. The ladies certain
ly tried to please us on that line,
the fish, especially, being fine.
After full justice had been done
to the dinner before us, Professors
Smith and Prince made another
detour of the Shut-In, and ere the
evening had waned, returned with
a finer catch than had been made
in the morning. These were given
to Prof. Prince as a memento oil
his kindness and appreciation Of
his company.
The greater number of the party
had never seen the Shut-In before,
therefore it was a great curiosity
to them.
The young ladies especially en-
joyed themselves clambering ovel
the huge boulders and great ledg-
es Of rocks, gathering ferns and
watching the boys wading in the
water after the fish.
The latter part of the evening
was pleasantly spent in camp and
the passers-by could hardly have
guessed that the merry laughter
which rang out in the breezes and
the bright happy faces that they
could see seated beneath Old Clio
ry which waved triumphantly o'el
us, we're those Of school boys and

To our Professor l feel safe in
saying it is the sentiment of all:
That we appreciate your kindness
very much, and too, that we are
very grateful for what you have
done for US il school. We know
that we make no proper return for
the aid you have given and the
kindness you have shown us, yet
our warmest wishes will always be
for your welfare. Faithfully and
earnestly have you labored not
only with one, but all of US, and
we hope to do credit to your teach
ings.
We have learned to look upon
you not as a teacher only but as a
friend, and in years to come when
we shall apply your lessons of pa
thence, kindness, fortitude and en-
ergy to the real problems of every
day life, the memory of your la
bors in our behalf will not let US
forget the debt we owe you; and to
our dear editor we must say that
your paper has been a source of
pleasure in all homes of our county
for almost half a century and has
also maintained the right and the
peoples side of the many issues
that arise as time rolls on. Not Il
paper in all Missouri is cleaner Or
more noted for its integrity than
the IRON COUNTY REGISTER. May
it continue to serve the people in
the future as it has in the past,
honestly supporting the truth and
presenting to the people all social

Democratic light, making each.in-
dividual feel that he is a part of
the living present.

We have had facts enough here to
build the future on. For instance: 1
know a group of five Bartlett trees
a few miles from Roswell, now about
twenty years old, which have borne
at least twelve successive crops which
were profitable. Several of them
saw ten of these crops myself. The
figures on one of these-probably the
best one-it was six OF seven years
ago-were $500 pounds from the five
trees. n they were sold in Roswell
at five cents a pound. or $4,000 from

were about nine years old when they

very pretty landscapes. But the trees

bear 1000 bushels to the acre, or the
