day School The new minister, Rev.
Lee W. Beattie, seems to have struck
popular chord, and has made many
close appeals to the heartstrinos of
those who have been fortunate
enough to hear him. He breaches
without pretension, is perfectly at
home, more than ordinarily natural.
and is, Withal, a man of sincere
thought and purpose He never has
any rant or cant in his sermons, and
delivers them in an easy, unaffected
manner. He has made the kind of
appeal one likes to see noted. He has
grown, rather than anything else He
did not come with any flare, but has
at all times been himself, natural, and
at times very eloquent preacher Of
the gospel.
Rev. Mr.. Beattie is connected with
the Madison Square Church, Third
Avenue and Thirtieth Street, New
York, one of DR.. Parkhurst's charges.

Davis..Cleary


Superintendent M. G.. Clearly,
OF the Cimarron schools, surprised
his many friends by suddenly 60
ing over to Dodge City Saturday,
and bringing back bride with
him. We say surprised, but per-
haps this should be qualified, as
his friends caught on" during
the day, and when Mr.. and Mrs.
Cleary came in on No. 5, they
turned the tables and surprised
them.
! The bride, Miss ZELDA Davis, is
we'll known to the people of Gin
arron, she having taught one of
the grade rooms here two years
ago, making many friends by her
charming qualities. The groom
is still better known, having been
at the head of the city schools for
the past three years and building
up for himself a reputation as a
very successful educator, in fact,
as the principal of the Sterling
high school said, Mr.. Cleary is
one of the very best in the state
in his line of work"
The wedding reception at the
train and at the house was very
smoothly carried out, and was
quiet and free from the slightest
boisterousness and still jolly. Mr..
Cleary had invited the upper
classes of the high school to meet
MIN at the train and to reception
at his house later. and this was
modified by the Aeighbors. who,
in addition to this, prepared a
sumptuous supper, including a
fine big wedding cake made by
Mrs. N. j. Smith.
The high school boys had a car
riage waiting, and as soon as the
train pulled in, the bride and
groom were captured and hurried
to the buggy, before the large
crowd of about $50 people could
get a chance at them. The buggy
was taken up to the home on the
run. The house had been darken
ed and when the bridal party ar
rived, the lights we're suddenly
turned on revealing the house full
of neighbors and high school folks
who rendered their congratula-
tions and best wishes and later
started in and helped to eat the
good things and drink fruit punch
-Cimarron Jacksonian.
The above item is of interest to
the people of Liberal and to many
students in Seward county and
Oklahoma, as Mrs. Cleary taught
the eighth grade in our city school
last year and has many friends
here.

born in Treynor, Iowa, July 10,
1895, and departed this life Octo-
Der IA, 1911, age Is years, 3
months and 3 DAYS. Ill health in
infancy and early childhood, made
him constant care to his parents,
and especially endeared him to
their hearts. Later he oyercame
these frailties and grew to be a
great hearted, Industrious fellow,
full of energy and fun. He was a
good worker and contributed
largely to the support of the fam
lily. The baby brother, twenty
months old, was his special favor
lite and playfellow. The young
man is survived by his parents,
two sisters, Mrs. Hazel Beardsley
and Irene Rogers, and three broth
ers, Meril, Harold and Emil.
The people of Liberal and vicin-
ity have been deeply moved by
this tragedy. and their heartfelt
sympathy goes out to the bereayed
relatives who have lost, the one a
husband and father, and the other
a son and brother. The floral Of
ferings and the many kindnesses
shown them by those who owned
carriages and autos, the draped
grave and many other expressions
of grief and sympathy were in
evidence on the day of the funeral.
We cannot cheat death, but
friends and friendly ministrations
can do much ito comfort and
soothe those whose hearts are torn
by this last earthly parting.
The joint funeral was held at
three o'clock on Sunday afternoon
in the city hall, which is being
used as a house of worship while
the new Christian church is under
