A Topeka chap who went to the per-

The Good Government club will
afternoon at the home of Mrs S. A.
| Thurston, 1901 Lane street.
The people who have procrastinated
| in order 10 clean house or finish
spring sewing, and have not already
had their Dicnics have missed it. The
| best part of the spring in Kansas is
gone, for now the rainy season is on
and there will be no chance for
gipsying until the weather is too hot
and the flies and gnats and bugs too
| thick for comfort. Serves 'em right
though, for neglecting the important
for the trivial cares which are al
| ways with us If We look for them
| and may be attended to any time
| When you are old and stiff and rheu-
| matte and unable to answer the call
of the spring, we will not regret the
pantry shelves we didn't clean nor
| the old dress we didn't make over but
we will be sorry we never picked
| those violets."
| The Travellers club will have a
| meeting Saturday afternoon with
! Miss Madge Moore, Oakley and In
diana avenues, Oakland. The pro-
gramme will be given at $3.50 and will
be followed by the annual picnic on
| the lawn.
