siThree days each week Miss Chat
tie Gibbs, one of the towns best
known and highly respected young
women, bitches a team to a spring
wagon and drives through the coun-
try, round about, selling meat to the
farmers. During the harvest time
she increased her trips to supply the
farmers wives with fresh meats for
the gangs employed in the wheat
fields. This is Miss Gibbs vacation
time, as she attends the state agri-
cultural college at Manhattan.
when Miss Gibbs came home
from college she rented a corner in
one Of the stores Of the town and
put in stock Of notions and house
hold articles which she sells when
not out with her wagon in the coun-
try selling meat. She says she ~
not afraid Of work, and that is what
is taught at the college.
Several other young women Of
this little town have been BUSY in
the country during the wheat har-
vest. They have gone to the homes
of the farmers and helped in prepar-
ing the meals for the men who work
in the fields. They REGARD 10 recre-
alton rather than labor, and they
say they are glad to get out In the
country and spend their vacations
on the farms"

(Centralia Democracy.

A meeting of the stockholders OF
the White Sox Baseball association
was held at the city hall last night
for the purpose of arranging to close
up the business of the season of 1909
and take up the matter of organic
ing for 1910.
President Rohl stated that move
ment is on foot to organize South
ern Illinois league taking in such
cities as Mt. Vernon, Belleville, Dn
Qroin, Cairo Mt Vernon, Ind, and
other cities that would come in. He
suggested that an organization be
effected by securing 100 persons
who will agree to pay $500 a month
until May LIST, and thus secure
enough money to get the season
started with no danger of having a
deficit at the close of the season
Several of those present spoke In
favor of this plan and it was decided
that Secretary Caldwell should cor
respond with the baseball associa-
lions of number of Southern Hi
nois and Indiana cities and call a
meeting to be held in Centralia for
the purpose of taking up the matter
