With M Building The ssNeAem Practical Values this Count, Win Advance Rud

was fitting climax to a successful
and profitable convention.
Secretary Newly, Of Rice county
was present and made the Barton
county workers "sit up and take
notice" when he modestly showed
how much progress In Association
work that could actually be made by
a county. ]. H. Engles remarked
that Rice was among the foremost
organized countiesiu the State.
If space permitted much could be
written about the untiring work of
county officers Gwinn and Johnson.
Suffice to say they were re elected by
acclimation. The new officers are
Pres. S. H. Gwinn; Vice Pres. o. W.
Dawson; Treas, NJ. c. Elmore; Sec'y
J. W. Johnson. Department Supt'S
Home, Mrs. R. C. Smith; Adult.
Prof. K-eegan; Teacher Training,
Prof. Shirk, Elementary, Mrs. S. A.
Newcombe; Visitation, G. W. Afford;
Delegate to State Convention s. H.
Gwlnn; alternate, Prof. Keegan.
The time and place for the next
convention was left with the executive
board, and it is hoped that the thirty
schools in the county will 60 up to
the convention with three hundred
delegates and visitors. 1t is certainly
worth while, and there is no reason
why Barton county should not be at
the head of the list for effective work.
Watch out for that tourl

The North and South Road

AS stated In our issue laat
week, there remained to be rails
ed in subscription to bonds the
ed in subscription to bonds the
sum of $4,000 10 assure the
building Of the Kansas North
western. The raising of this
amount was placed in the hands
of the Business Mems Associa-
ton, who Sublet the task to
committee consisting of H. E.
Lindas, Fred Hemker, and w. P.
FEEDER. This committee started
out on Thursday noon of last
week, and spent the entire time
OF the working hours of the days
at their task, determined that
when the adjourned session of
the association was held on Mon
day evening Of this week, their
task would be completed. This
was no small undertaking, in
view of the fact that the promOt-
erS themselves had spent some
six weeks soliciting, and further
on account of the inclement wea-
ther making it very disagreeable
to get around town However,
not letting the grass grow under
their feet, they succeeded in get
ting the full amount subscribed
by the time President Zutavern
called the meeting to order, and
every one present, which meant
some forty business men, was
happy, voting the committee
their thanks. Representatives
of the road who were present,
said that this put the question
now up to the point of voting
aid by the city to the extent Of
Sd!qsuAOl eql Gq pure 'OOO'OS$
through which the road passed
to the sum of $4,000 per mile.
This part of the program would
be undertaken at once, and every
thing possible done to push the
building of the road.
In this connection we wish to
state that the feeling of the bus
mess men and almost every one
else on this subject is unanimous
lily in favor of the road. Many
of the business men have stretch
ed a point to assist the project
and especially have the young
men been diligent in their efforts
to promote this road, as they are
to promote anything for the sue
cess of the city and county.
The meeting resolved itself in
to a boosting aggregation, short
talks being made by a number of
gentlemen present, among whom
was Rev. WestwOOd, who made
some telling remarks indicating
that he is a Greater Great Bend
Booster" all the way through.
There never was a time in the
history Of the city when the fu-
ture looked so bright as at this
time. What it takes now is .
long pull and a strong pull by
every one to make Great Bend
the best what is in the west half
of the state.
