Get Up, Emmal

The good people OF Emma seem
to have changed their slogan from
"whoa Emma to acct Up Emma
Persons who visit the town only
about once week usually get
surprise as there's usually some
thing doing, as the town is Deith-
er suffering from poor business
nor race suicide.
At present big Building is be-
ing erected by Fritz Hartman to
be used as a restaurant, pool hall
and hotel. Amos D.erking, the
hardware man, Is building good
residence. VIM. Wehrs is building
an addition to his home. Chas.
Dierking has put in a refrigerat-
ing plant for the dairy and also
some new outhouses.
This thriving little city is now
about the size OF Mt. Leonard
and is on the Mo. Pac. railway but
unfortunately has never been
given a depot. The main street
which divides the town is also the
dividing line between Saline and
Lafayette counties and IL seems a
little odd but the people seem to
favor Lafayette, as most OF the
buildings are on that side OF the
street. But about fifteen buildings
are on our side. Get up, Bmmai

Remarkable Poultry Food

A. l.. Aulgur Of Sweet Springs
says our fellow-citizen, Jim Mont
gomery, sells remarkable poultry
food and that the people should
be instructed to save them from
loss when using it. He said spring
ers fed on it should be put in the
market before they are full feath-
cred because they will grow spurs
and pullets likewise because they
will go to Matching.

Patrick b. Delaney, inventor,
has added a good invention to his
list. He has patented an instru-
ment for transmitting important
kilograms, for use especially In
times OF war, which sends tele-
grams over two wires and IL one
should be tapped the spy would
be unable TO get any information.
The idea Is TO send kilograms
from distant points over two wires
widely separated after leaving the
sepding station and meeting again
mt the receiving station.

Ds'tchinen are such inveterate smokers that

He finds himself unable to deprive himself of
the indulgence even for the short period of
church service. A similar practice exists in
several churches in South America. Smok-

century. At one time smoking was carried

to have power to order a prosecuting
