The Telephone

Don't add to your troubles the inconvenience of doing without a Telephone.
 There is no department of business, professional or in- dustrial life in which 1t is not an essential part.
 No community, however small, can enjoy the full ad- vantages of modern life with out including the Telephone. By its use to the needs of humanity it has proved its claims to rank as one of the necessaries of life.
 The farmer who wants to make his farm more profit able and life more pleasant for his family should have a Telephone in his home. NEWARK TELEPHONE

The BOY GOD MADE
Prof. Steidley Addresses Par
ents at Central Park Sun-
day Afternoon.

Prof. H. M. Steidley addressed a
large number of people at Central
Park Sunday afternoon. His SUBJ
ject was "The Boy God Made"
His talk was lrimarily to fathers
and mothers but was very interest
ing to others as we'll.
He gave his ideas on the bringing
up of children, boys especially.
The ever recurring "don't" was
one thing with which he found fault.
Don't do this is, of course, one Of the
fond memories of everyone's child
hood days, but it was word which
should not be overworked. Prof.
Steidley further held that parsnts
did not praise their children suffi-
ciently when they d,d 60 right but
were always ready to blame.
The punishment, when one is
angry, of child was something
which only harmed the child and
the parent as we'll. AS an ilusr'-
ton Prof. Steidly gave the follow
lowing:
"Papa comes home tired. Reads
the paper but Tommie is restless
and makes a great deal of noise.
Papa gets tired of this and puts
Tommie in a chair with the instruc-
tons to stay there. To!mmie does
but he does not seem able to keep
his feet from wiggling on the rounds
of the chair. Father says. "Be
STILL" He tries but does not sue
ceed and finally the scene ends up
with a good thrashing for Tommie
by his angry father. He has for
gotten that God gave the boy
thousand muscles to use and not
cne to keep quiet with"
The professors idea throughout
his lecture was to ''keep the child
busy, but do not&eep him quet."

MORE TROUBLE ON EAST EIGHTH

The Racket Grocery company's de-
livery car had to be pulled out of East
Eighth street mud Monday,
between Highland and Santa Fe. A
week ago or more the big touring
car of Arch Wallar was being driven
down East Eighth by Mrs. Wallar At
that time the street was dry and new
gas pipe had been laid there a few
days ago aud the soft dirt allowed
the car to sink to the hub OF the
wheel. The car was pulled out.
Residents on East Eighth are now
talking as If they would like to have
the ST. eet macadamized or paved.
II this is done 1t will probably be
done from Santa Fe to Highland.

MORE MOTOR CAR
TRAPS DISCOVERED
Mr.. Stewart Brings a Dozen to
, Town-.North Road Worked
by Trap-layers

Since the finding of the motor
car and horse trap near Petrolia by
Frank Burrls, the number of such
traps has greatly increased.
Will Stewart who lives about five
miles north east of town, came to
Chanute two or three days ago
rather late IN the afternoon with
some produce. On his way IN he
discovered at least twenty of the
same kind cf traps as discovered BY
Mr.. Burris.
He picked up nearly dCz=n 'n
his way to town that were in the
most dangerous places. Who ever
had been distr bu;ing the traps had
done his work we'll as most Of them
were nearly concealed in the dust
or placed at turns in the road
where it would be impossible to see
them unless on the lookout.
The traps brought in by Mr.
Stewart were made of boards,
barrel slaves and anything in the
shape of lumber, apparently that
was handy to drive nails in. Some
of the traps had as many as 20
nails driven in them.
1t has been supposed that these
traps were set for motor cars bu'
when the damage one would do a
horse is considered, it seems i'm
probable that they are set for
motors alone. A car striking one
of the traps would only be damaged
to the extent of puncture which it
would take a little time and pro-
badly IS cents worth of patching to
make as good as new.
On the other hano, Snoulu
horse strike one of these traps and
run a nail in its foot the injury
would be serious with possibility
of running the animal.
The farmers of north of town are
talking of organizing a Vigilance
Committee to see what can be done
to put stop 10 the matter. The
traps are too dangerous to their
horses to be allowed in the neighbor
hood. Mr.. Stewart found the traps
on II bridge road between Hum
boldt and Chanute.

RAIN ENDS
The BIG FAIR
Bad Weather Shortened it to
Two Days-Large Crowd
at Fair.

The big falf is thing uf the past.
The last monkey performance is
over, the cracker JACK and red lem
onade stands closed and even the
horses of the faithful ever present
merry-go-round hang their heads
dejecteGly as they bid farewell TO
Chanute. Judging in all depaIt-
menls was finished Thursday and
the secretary and the assistants are
busy cstalogng the entries and
awarding he premiums to the
winners.
An cx'emely large crowd esti-
mated between 300 and 10, 900
people attended the fair Thursday.
Many more farmers attended Tnurs-
day than Wcdnts lay ami large
number was planning to return
Fuday, had the fair not been rained
out. AS it was few braved the
bad weather and came out, only 10
find the fair missing article.
The displays were good and
agricultural hall was found TO be a
good and convenient Place 10 ar
range and display the dlffereLt
exhibits. The hail looked attractive
under clectric lights and as the
grounds were open evenings, many
availed themselves of the oppor-
,unity to view the h al and contents.
The horse, cattle, sheep, and
swine displays were above the usual
mark. All of the animals shown
were high grade and many excellent.
The racing was feature of the fair
tais year. Time was good in the
harness races and the motor cycle
races proved interesting in the
extreme. The management is to
be highly praised for the idea of
providing plenty of amusement to
while away the time between heats
Of the races.
The acrobats were good in their
line and did some difficult stunts.
Frank and True Rice in their vaude-
vile produced roars of laughter from
the grand stand. Much of their work
was really co mic. Tne Wl'd West
man, his wife and herd Of ponies
was considered by some to be the
best attraction on the grounds.
He was rigged out in true western
style and threw his lariat like real
cowboy of the Wild and Woolv
West that used to be.
The band concerts on Wednes-
day and the afternoons aud evenings
were very popular. "Everybody's
doin' it" led in popularity, if one
judge by applause. The big dis
appointment of the fair was the
failure of the aeroplane to appear.
The Fair Association will sue the
Booking Association for failure to
live up to contract and provide an
aeroplane and aviation.
Many people have expressed
themselves as feeling that the -Four
County Fair this year is the best
ever held in Chanute. At least it
proved to be very popular and fur
nished large crowd with a couple
