remodeling of the church tower will

The new tower will be about forty
feet high to be constructed of pressed

in many ways and will be surmounted
by four pinnacles. The roof will be

NO AID CLUB MEETING.
Organization Was Unable to Secure a
Speaker, But just Wait

There will be no meeting of the Ad
club tomorrow as it was impossible to
secure speaker to fill this particular
Gate. Although tomorrow is the regu-
lar semi-monthly meeting time the next
regular meeting of the club will occur
DeXt Tuesday noon, February 1. The
Eame of the speaker will be announced
later.
The Ad club promises some real
treats within the next month. Three
weeks from tomorrow, February Is, Mr..
Hugh Chalmers. of the Detroit Chal-
mers Automobile company, is scheduled
as the attraction. This should be an
interesting talk as Mr. Chalmers is one
of the ablest business men in the coun-
try. Some idea of his business capaci-
ty may be gained from the fact that
he gave up a position paying $4,000 a
year to associate himself with the con-
Germ of which he is now the head.
In addition to Mr.. Chalmers. the pro-
gram committee has arranged with Mr..
S. c. .Dobbs, president of the National
Association of Advertising clubs, for a
date sometime during February Mr..
Dobbs is at the head of the Coca Cola
concern of Atlanta Ga.
Both of these meetings will be look
ed forward to, with a great deal of in
terest by members of the club.

REPAIR ONE BRIDGE.
Horace Adams of Maple Hill Makes
Reconstruction Possible.

As a result of the conference of the
Shawnee county commissioners with
the board of Wabaunsee county. held
ar Maple Hill Saturday. Chairman F.
B. Simms of the Shawnee board an
nounces that the bridge at Maple Hill
will be reconstructed imm ediately. The
work will cost about $4,000.
This is possible because the bridge
is a joint concern of the two coun-
ties. Statutes limit the money to be
expended on one bridge by one county
at $4,000. The two counties, there
fore, by going the limit, can spend
$4,000 on this bridge. There was yet
another $1,000 to be obtained before
the estimate could be met Horace
Adams of Silver Lake provided that
For that act and similar ones of
pub spirit. Mr.. Simms proposes that
the bridge be rechristened 1.-The Hor-
ace Adams bridge.
when the bridge was first pro-
posed said Mr.. Simms adams vol
unteered to raise $1,000 toward the
cost, then after it was damaged in
the big flood. he subscribed $500
more: now il is $1,000, which gives
him credit for securing more than
$4,000 for the structure. and 1 move
We call it the Horace Adams bridge >
Two of the six spans of the bridge
were found to have been torn out by
the ice gorge and high water. The
bridge is supported by tubular iron
concrete filed piers. a type of pier
which is becoming unpopular.
Those great chunks of ice," report
the commissioners. T"cut two of the
Y foot piers right off. We could see
where a great cake of ice had first
smashed against the pier and cut a
slice through the iron and then the
whole thing had been sliced off, just
as if a great knife had been slashed
through it Two other piers which
had not been cut off were brushed
aside and leaned at an angle of 45
degrees over the water
1t is claimed by the commissioners
that the statutory limit on the expendi-
ture on the bridges has worked to
keep the structures of a cheap and
unstable character
AS soon the bids can be let it
is now proposed to have two solid
concrete piers built to support the
superstructure in the place of the de-
stroyed piers.
After that say the commissioners
as fast as funds can be accumulated
castings will be made around all the
tubular piers in the river joining the
two opposite piers at each section in
solid block of concrete. The county
has twelve such piers in the Kaw river
to be so reinforced
1t is also.reported by the board that
the salvage from the Rossville dam
age will be sufficient to enable them.

attendance will not wane.

One of the most striking of the illus

q man of the world, who could not see
himself as his Creator would see him.
A mirror was drawn in front of the
man of affairs but it was supposed to
be only the audience that could see the
man reflected in his true light, as the
man was blind to the narrowness of
the life he was leading.
Here we have our liberal man." said
the speaker, master of every situation,
who has hook in his nose with the
devil at the end of the hook. We al
ways answer the. question as to how
much he is worth in dollars and cents
but God does not.
