Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1908-08-07

Representative Gillett of Massa-
chusetts, anxious to properly dis
tribute his allotment of free seeds,
not long ago wrote the country post
masters of his district for lists of
possible districts. He was amazed
to receive from one postmaster a
letter fatty refusing the request and
quoting section Of the postal reg.
ulations.
Mr. Gillett lost no time in looking
up that section. 1t warned post
masters against furnishing names of
patrons Of their offices, especial
stress being laid on the fact that
green goods artists often operated
In that way.

Gen. Clarence Edwards, chief OF
the Insular Bureau of the War De-
partment, tells how an Irish corpo-
raj got even with an unpopular post
commander in Cuba. This post com
mander, though an excellent soldier,
was something of a crank. He had
two hobbies One was that the lib
eral use of whitewash was the best
possible preventative of disease, and
the other was pet flamingo, an
illnatured, bird that was heartily dis
. liked by the enlisted because it new
er overlooked an opportunity to nil
one of them.
One day the post commander hat
to go to Havana, but he could no,
endure the thought that anyone
should be idle in his absence. 1t hai
been fully g week since any white
washing had been done, so he ISSUED
an order that "all articles pertaining
to the camp not sheltered from the
weather should be whitewashed. Tit
Irish corporal was instructed will
the execution of the order.
q The post commander returned tn,
next day, and pretty soon the al
vas fairly blue with his cursing. TIT
soldiers heard the noise, but the,
were not curious. They knew wha
1t was all about. The post command
er"s brilliant flamingo was white a
q snowy heron.

THE WoMAN's BOARD.

An interesting meeting of the WO-
mans Board, Mrs. Doremus ScuddeT
presiding, was held yesterday after
noon in the Central Union church as
sembly hall An excellent showing
was made in the report on new local
endeavor among Chinese children, and
a scholarly paper by DR.. Serene Bishop
was read by Mrs. Arthur c. AleXan-
der.
Mrs. Rev. e. w. Thwing told enter
tainingly of how Chinese children were
being given a home at the Thwing
residence at Kaimuki. There seemed
to be no other place available, and
while the japanese orphan children
were provided for, it seemed that some
provision should also be made for the
Chinese orphans, so little Chinese boys
and girls find a retreat in beautiful
KaimuH under the guardianship OF the
Thwings. Mrs. DR.. J. NJ. Whitney act,
ed as secretary in the absence Of Miss
