KANSAS COMAENT
AN UNUsUAL WINTER.

The old timer probably Will tell you
that there have been other winters in
Kansas like the present one, but he

Of the truth of his statement. Lack
Ing in other devices to strengthen your
argument. attention may be called to
the fact that in the 46 years Of which
there has been kept record, the
than any other. It doesn't really mat
ter, however. whether there have been
other winters quite as pleasant. We
are concerned only with the present
one. and we are thoroughly pleased
with it. One Of the chief causes of
our citation is that the visits Of the
plumber have not been as frequent as
usual. The fuel bills are not SO high.
There has not been necessary the
usual outlay for heavy clothing. Per-
haps We are unduly fanciful in re-
garding these as benefits. but there is
another direction in which winters OF
the nature of this one are q blessing
undisguised. No matter how atten-
tive city may be when winters are
bitterly. cold, there must be great
deal Of suffering among the poorer
classes. Some Of them are too proud
to ask aid from the city, others prob
actually need supplies Of provisions
and fuel to keep them from d1scom-
fort. And then there are IN the more
severe winters many cases OF disease
due to the exposure of poorly clad
bodies or to the lack Of ventilation OF
homes or to variety of causes. This
winter there have been few days when
the windows OF Kansas homes have
not been open. outdoorework has been
only rarely interrupted. and there has
been practically an entire absence OF
slush and water and mud. 1t has
been possible because the drain upon
our poor fund has been only moderate
to give proper attention to every case
Of want.-Leavenworth Times.
