Well, the glorious Fourth has pas
sed, and. as far as we know, without
any casualties. We trust that every
one felt patriotic and gave the good
Lord thanks because we have such a
good country toliSe In. Even though
it is dry, we have such fine nights to
sleep in, so we awaken refreshed for
another days work. Did you ever
think about our living one day at a
time?
A number of relatives gathered at
the Traver home to eat ice cream on
the Fourth. The guests were: L.
W. Parker and wife, L. S. Parker and
wife and d. II. Heath and wife.
These gatherings are not as frequent
as they ought to be. In the early
days the social gatherings of neigh
bors were common; and we seemed to
get along as we'll then as we do now
when we can scarcely find time to &C
to neighbours house on an errand.
A number from the Traver settle
ment went to Hugoton to celebrate

We had a nice rain the evening o

about western Kansas. He don't

part about this way:
1t is better to be land holder
out in western Kansas than a rent
err on high-priced lands back in
eastern Kansas or over in Mis-
souri,. 1t is quite likely that he
can find land that will grow alfalfa
and if so he will have the world by
the narrative with a down hill
pull.
He will not rest on a bed oil
roses all the time but the young
fellow who can't stand some hard
ships for the sake ofgetting ahead
and having a home that he can call
his own, has not the right sort Of
grit in his frame and probably
won't make much of success Of

II is work such as this the Big
Brother and Big Sister league OF Chi

Children's Home and Aid society, and
under the direction OF the juvenile
court.
The work was started in Chicago
In July, 1909. by Mr.. f. Il. Colby Mr..
Colby would rather find good home
for a child than to race about the
country in an automobile, and he has
given up splendid business chances
for this phase of social work During
the past year 200 children have been
looked after, and the avenues for use
fulness are ever widening.
There have long been open doors
for little fatherless, and motherless
children, there have long been cor
receive institutions (which have not
always corrected), but there has been
an intermediate class of boys and
girls which has been lost sight of.
This class has OF recent years been
discovered in large cities, and 1t Is
this intermediate class of boys and
girls that the Big Brothers and Big
Sisters are trying to help over the
roughnesses of life.
AS may be fancied, work of this
kind In a metropolitan city grows by
leaps and bounds, and a method of
work must be thought out and worked
out as facts develop. Good homes
must be at hand to supply the maui.
fold necessities, big and little.
The office of the league is at 1877
North Dearborn street. Chicago where
the Childrens Home and Aid Society
of Illinois has for dozen years main
tanned its existence.
