Baxter Springs news. [volume] (Baxter Springs, Kan.) 1882-1919, 1909-04-01

Sometime ago a cranky sort oil
an old man came into this Office
and stopped his paper because
something in it did not just suit
his fancy. We have frequently
met him on the street since that
time and it is amusing to note
the look of surprise on the old
fellows face that we are still in
existence regardless of the fact
that he stopped his paper. Some
day-and it won't be long either
that old gentleman will turn
up his toes. His heart will be
stilled forever. Neighbors and
friends will follow his lifeless
clay to the silent city and Law
them to rest among the flowers.
An obituary will be published in
these columns telling what a
kind father, a good neighbor
and beloved citizen he was
which the recording angel will
overlook for charity's sake, and
in a very short time he will be
forgotten. AS he lies ont there
in the cold, cold graveyard
wrapped in the silent slumber Of
death, he will never know that
the last kind word spoken of him
was by the editor of that paper
which he so spitefully stopped. :"
Did you ever pause just a mo-
ment and think that your editor,
whoever he may be, will write
your obituary some day?

Booster Day May 1.

The next Big Booster Day
will be May l. There will be
another big lot of fine things
given away on that day, and it
is expected the crowd will be
much larger than the last Big
Booster Day crowd was, if such
a thing is possible.
The Booster Club is holding
meetings right along now, and
all arrangements for another big
day will be perfected very soon.
In the meantime if there is any
farmer who wants to sell some
thing at public auction In this
city on that day will send his
list of articles to the News it
will be advertised for him free of
charge.
