At the meeting of the State FEEDER
alton of Women's Clubs at Wheat
land, Mrs. g. Davis was reelected
Corresponding Secretary. Only
those who know the vicissitudes thru
which the State Federation has pass
ed will be able to appreciate the com
pliment paid Mrs. Davis in that select
ion. She has held the position ever
since the Society began it's existance
aud it has been largely due to her
tact and diplomacy that it has made
such sure and certain progress. In
the capacity of Corresponding Secre-
tary Mrs. Davis has shown the a
ability of knowing the right word and
saying it at the right time.

Those were brave words spoken by
President Merica at the Women's Fe,
Iteration of Clubs meeting at Wheat
nd the other day ON the matter of
teaching the dead languages in coll
eyes and schools. Much valuable
time is spent upon the study of Latin,
forexample, by students who never
make any use of that language again
during their lives. 1t would be the
part of wisdom, the Sun thinks, to cut
out the study of Latin from our High
schools, unless a student has some
vocation in view that will require a
knowledge of that language, and sub
stitute Book Keeping, or some other
practical study that will be of use to
the scholar in the every day walks of
life.

Oh mother, my love if you'll

And go where ask you to wan

full land,
The dreamland that's waiting

Well walk in the sweet posy gar

Where moonlight and starlight

And the flowers and birds are fill
ing the air
With the fragrance and music OF
dreaming.
There'll be no little tired out
boy to undress,
No questions or care to perplex
you:
There'Il be no little bruises or
bumps to caress
Nor patching of stockings to vex
you. -.
For IN rock you away on the sil.

And sing you asleep when you re
weary.
And no one shall know OF your
beautiful dream
But you and your own little
dearie.
And when | am tired Ill nestle
my head
In the bosom that's soothed me
40 often:
And the wide awake stars shall
sing in my stead
A song which my dreaming shall
soften,
So, mothe; my love; let me take
your dear band;
And away through the starlight
we'll wander,
Away through the mist to the
beautiful land,
The dreamland that's waiting
out yonder.

A Visit to the Pinnacle Of the Beech
MOutain.

A Visit to the Pinnacle Of the Beech
Moutain.
After discussing q trip forsome
time it was agreed that we start
on Sunday, Sept. 26, 1909. Ev-
erything ready and the day
seeming promising, we made our
way, and after travelling Tor
some time We were joined by two
Others, making a party OF five.
We Travelled about two and a
half miles, when we entered the
Beech. There we beheld the most
beautiful forests that Nature can
produce. We trayeled but a
short distance when we entered
the north pinnacles, at a height
of about four hundred feet above
the tops of the trees that stand
in the valley below.
After staying there tor some
time discussing the beauties Of
Nature and pointing out the Diff
ferent places that looked tamil.
lar, we made our way along the
heights OF the mountain to the
South Pinnacles and after truv-
cling a distance ofabout tw o and
a half miles, we reached the top
most heights, where we could see
a vast expanse OF country, but
owing to the smoke we could not
see so as when the atmosphere is
perfectly clear. However the Ban
ner Elk and Elk Park sections
WIRE plainly visible.
After staying there for some
time we took western course,
and soon arrived at the Buckeye
Springs. After taking a cool and
refreshing drink, and were a.
bout to to take onr leave, one OF
our party happened to an accl-
dent, and took a bath in a pond
near by that had been built for
making ice, and remarked as he
was nearing the bank that it was
about the coolest bath he h a d
ever taken.
We then took q homeward
course, and as We Travelled along
through the beautiful forests and
wild grasses, the stock law was
much discussed. Then we came
to the Raven Rock and were a.
bout to ascend it, when one of
the party objected and the idea
was abandoned. We made our
way again to the North Pima
cles, and after taking another
view we made our way down the
mountain, where We visited old
Bro. William Keller, and happen
I'd in at lucky hour, as dinner
was about ready when we got
there.
After sharing the bles sings of
the good brothers table, We were
escorted to the parlor, where the
friendly ladies poured out their
souls in the most charming mu-
sic l have ever heard. After a
stay of about three hours we de-
parted and made our way home

The Indian and the Hog

Inc An0l0n anu tho H0e.
The pioneer Kansas woman
had some hard times. TO begin
with, the neighbors were always
several miles away. and many a
woman was left at home all day
while her husband was busy in
the fields or working in the tim.
Der.
Over in Brown county a story
is told anent the settlement oil
the Kickapoo reserve. Natur ally
the proximity of OF the indians
often caused the settlers wives q
great deal OF worry and fear. An
Indian and wllskey were always
ready to mix in those days.
One day a big ugly Indian
staggered up to the door OF a
farm house and pounded it hard.
The door was opened by the far
mer's wife. She wes alone.
"Nothing here" said the wo.
man, trying to add to the mean
ing by making motions.
me hungry," grunted the In
dian again. He could hardly keep
his feet and leaned heavily ag.
ainst the house for support.
"Nothing here," sold the wo-
man again, much worried.
"Eat-hungry,,.' fused tn e
drunken aboriginee.
Nothing here" said the wo-
man, another time. She saw that
the time f.r action had come,
and shouted to him: Go away,
yet away, no stay here-get a.
way."
The Indian grunted a little
more, but he was too drunk to
drunk toquarrel and finally turn.
ed around and staggered over to
q small fruit tree in the yard, un-
der which he lay down and was
quickly asleep.
1t was still early in t he day
and the woman was sure t h a t
the Indian would awaken before
her husband came home. She did
not scream and wiring her hands
and go into Mysteries. She put
her wits to working. First she
went to the barn and got an
armful of corn which she shplled,
Then she tiptoed to tue tree and
scattered the corn all over the
drunken brave and then made a
trail of corn to the barn lot. She
opened the gate and called to the
hogs. About thirty huge shouts,
to whom corn was a luxury, am
bled joyously forth. They licked
the trail clean and came to the
Indian. The way they piled on
the sleeper, rooted him about,
was q show worth seeing.
There was a mix up of shoats
and Indian, q wild yell, and a
very unsteady race on the part
of the Indian to put as much dis
tance az he could in the shortest
possible time between himself
and the hungry pigs. That 1ndi.
an never bothered that farm
again.-Kansas City Journal.
