during this time has paid off debt
of $1,000. There has been improve.
ment made amounting to over $500.
Two lots have been purchased in the
west part of the city for 5000 and
over $500 has been paid on them.
There has been 1872 members added
to the church, the present member
ship being 334 a net increase during
Rev. Reeds pastorate of 81 members.
Rev. Reed has three splendid Of
fers since the LIST of September, but
has not given any consideration to
them on the account of the splendid
school advantages in Marion, his two
sons being Juniors in the Marion
High school. The call to the Pitts
burg church came a few days ago
and after a careful investigation
upon the part of Rev. Reed was ac-
cepted. Pittsburg Is situated in the
great coal, oil and natural gas belt of
Southeastern Kansas, Is a city Of
10000 inhabitants, has in addition to
a first class High School, State
Normal College.
The United Brethren church in
Pittsburg, is one of the strongest of
the denomination in that part of the
state. Rev. Reed receives quie an
advance in salary over that paid by
the Marion church. While Mr. Reed
is quite loathe to leave the people of
Marion, having received very kind
and generous treatment by all, yet
he feels that because of the great
demand for men and the rapid
growth of the U. p. church in the
West that he best serve his church
and advance the cause of Christ.
He wishes to express his gratitude
to the christian people and many
friends of Marion for the kindnesses
bestowed during his stay in the city
and will always remember them
with much pleasure.

HOUSE ALMOST WRECK

In the cause of Lawson II. De-
Lauder against Adam Ploch and
others in the common pleas court,
the defendants answer and cross
petition was filed by Attorneys ia
coby and Donithen, Saturday morn
ing.
The defendant in answering ad-
mits that he is owner Of certain
real estate located in the Haine
addition of Marion. In his cross
petition he declares that on Septem-
Der 11th 1908, he entered into a
contract with the plaintiff for the
construction of residence. The
house was to have been constructed
according TO certain specifications
named in the contract. Upon full
fillment of the contract. the defend
ant declares that he agreed to pay
the plaintiff the sum of $1,775. He
alleges that the workmanship was
defective and Tmperfecs In almost
every manner and that the job was
badly "botched" up. The defendant
says that he has paid the plaintiff
the sum of S1,757 already and de-
clares that this amount was much
more than was due him.
BY reason of the imperfect work
manship, the defendant claims that
the house has settled, the walls
crumbled and other imperfections
resulted that render the residence
almost valueless. He alleges that he
has been damaged to the extent of
81 900 and prays that the court grant
him judgment in that amount upon
the final hearing Of the case.

needed for an average size matinee
made in this style. The back is in
two pieces, with bias seam down the
center; the front is in two, while each
sleeve is in one piece. To make the
matinee, cut piece of the material
in the shape of the diagram marked
with the letters D, E and B, laying D
on the straight edge of the material.
Then cut out another section like the
one marked A B C, with the line
on the straight edge of the ma
tetrial
The diagram A G shows only half
of the kimono sleeve, the fold of the
material coming on the side marked
with the letter j. The dotted line
forming a triangle On the shortest of
the four sides of this piece shows how
to shape the ends of the sleeve for
the back. The front side is left like
the pattern and the back sloped on
the dotted line. In putting the mat
inee sections together great care must
be taken to get them in the correct
order. 1t is best to start with the
backs and sew the bias seam running
down the center. If the material is
of fairly light weight this may be
managed successfully by French
seam, but if it is at all heavy, then
the seam should be covered with silk
binding and pressed open.
The sleeve section forms the yoke both
back and front, and for a certain dis
lance it is joined to the back and
front of the jacket, and then the two
edges of the sleeves are put together
to make the kimono effect. For exam
pie, A, which marks the top of the
back joins A, the yoke end of the

the days of the dense pine forests
when feed was plentiful and the eli
matte changes were not so sudden as
present, but the present day has its
advantages, though the winters are
more severe. Feed for the oxen may
be had at any railroad station or of
almost any farmer or homesteader
Oxen require less feed than horses,
and here is the first stroke of econ
omy, though not large one. They are
sure of foot and will haul as large a
load as horses. In skidding logs they
are said to be much preferable to
horses, and, unlike horses, they may
be slaughtered and served to the lum-
berjacks when they have served their
purpose. In some of the northern
counties oxen are being employed by
the new settlers for the cultivation Of
the farm. They move along slowly,
it is true, but they accomplish the
work of clearing the land and bring
ing it to a state of cultivation. The
only drawback to this new movement
is the lack of trainers and drivers. The
oxen men of the last generation have
or are passing away, and it will be
difficult to get men who will conde-
scend to desert the horse for the OK.
