said she to the Reflector. 1--WE shall
have as fine stock as 1t is posi-
BILE to buy"
The Emporia Gazette editorially
has these pleasant words to say
of Mr.. Whitehead: Hundreds Of
people in Emporia will regret the
departure of B. D. Whitehead, who
goes to Abilene to take charge of
a large dry goods house-one Of
the largest in Kansas. Mr.. White
head rs thoroughly capable Of taxi
ing charge of this business. He has
executive ability is a first-class sales
man, and is, more than anything
else, a gentleman in every relation
Of life. His ten years in Emporia
have made him scores Of close per-
sonal friends. 1t is doubtful IL any
other man on Commercial street has
more friends who swear by him,
than Mr.. Whitehead. He is a man
who makes friends by being worthy
Of them.
abilene will be the gamer Of
more than the head of new dry
goods establishment. She will gain
a pushing, aggressive citizen-one
of those men who is willing to get
under the towns load and push, who
is willing to get out with the petit
ton or the subscription paper and
who finds that it pays business
man to devote good part Of his
time to the common good Of the
community in which he lives. EN-
poria will miss Brace Whitehead and
all the Whitehead family, exceed
ingly."

HE WANTED A BIBLE.
Thought They Might Have One at
City Library.

An eight-year-old, who was evil
IDENTIFY preparing his Sunday school
lesson, wished to look at asBible,
SO he came down to the city library
yesterday afternoon, as the most
likely place to obtain that commodi-
ty. 1t may be he wanted one Of
the old-fashioned Bibles, with the
big full-page engravings of the SER
pent in Eden and the Patriarchs in
their flowing robes, but he kept
that desire to himself.
Standing on tiptoe so he could
look over the top of the librarians
desk, he whispered to Miss Romig:
"Have you got anything like a BIZ
BILE here?"

AS TO SCHOOL BONDS.

Editor Republican;
We as a people believe that educa.
ton Is the corner stone Of civil and
religious liberty. We believe in schools
and in education and in progress. In
the matter of our school buildings,
our county is not retrograding instead
OF progressing and the proposed school
bond offers the only solution OF the
question. A special tax is out of the
question, as it would not carry since
so many towns are making local i'm.
provements, such as meeting houses,
water systems ana electric light
plants. Even If Il heavy special tax
could be carried, IL would not relieve
the situation. Ten places are reported
as in need of school room. The only
solution lies in voting the bond of
$150,000 which distributes a light tax
over a long period, but gives us the
school houses Immediately.
II the present building tax of one
and half mills is discontinued by
the board of education, the two and
quarter mill tax necessary to cover
