Not a center of Fashion.

1t is safe to predict that the Gov
ernor's House will not be any more u
center of fashion in the next admins
tration than it has been during the
present one. Nevertheless Governor
and Mrs. Stubs will entertain as fire.
quently and adequately as their official
position will demand and as heartily as
their natural inclination for free-hafnd-
ed but unpretentious hospitality will
prompt Everybody will be made to
feel welcome at the Governors House
but it is not likely that it Will be a So
cial center nor that Governor and Mrs.
Stubs will revolutionize our rather
formless and unconventional official So
ciety nor set residential circles agog.
So if. because you have heard that
the governor-elect is a rich man, as
fortunes in Kansas go, you are expect
ing his family to be radically different
from our former governors, who have
not been rich men and whose families
have never aspired to cut a brilliant.
figure socially, you will be disappointed
But if you like plain folks, who spend
ousIy and unostentatiously and are
natural kindly, and comfortable as
an old shoe,'' the Stubbses will suit you
from the ground up. --'-
We all know rich folks Who are
'uppish," and We all know rich folks
who are stingy, but people who live
simply because their tastes lie in that
direction and not because it comes high
to do OtherWlSe, people VINO nave money
and position but not trace of Snob-
berry nor affectation, who aren't
ashamed of humble antecedents nor OBJ
scure kin; who are not ambitious So
ciaIly and who are as unspOfled by
prominence as by wealth-in fact, -peo-
pie who can stand prosperity-are as
rare as molars and bicuspids in the
Helpful Hen.
And that's the sort of people the
Stubs family are-typical Kansas peo-
pie except that they have more money
than most of US, live in a house that
cost many thousands of dollars, with
good pictures on the walls and Oriental
rugs on the floors, surrounded by an
estate which is destined to be one of
the most beautiful in the west when
their plans for its improvement can be
carried out.
The Stubs family have dinner at
noon and supper at night. The chill
sdren including Miss Lenora, the eldest,
who is in high school, go to the public
schools They have a big family
station wagon and use a fat white
family horse and a road-wagon or sur
rey -0ftener than the carriage and their
handsome team of carriage horses.
They have four servants to take care
of the house and grounds, but they
don't keep a coachman and the man
who bitches up" and drives the fam

the hall and the boys start a rough
house. with him and wrestle and

polished floor like every natural,
healthy, restless. energetic boy with
an innate repugnance for order, quiet
and whole window panes.

..The Young Lady of the Family.

All the usual polite compliments
may be truthfuIly paid to Miss Lenora
Stubs, the young LADY, of the next
governors family. She is pretty of

Miss Stubs is quiet, self possessed,
dignified-the regular little woman"
held up as a model by our grand
mothers. She parts her hair in the

she entertains the Christian Endeavor

been ''strolling around the diff.

The job looks big, but, you
know, you Rock Hillians have
heroically undertaken and sue
