A Kansas Architectural Revival.

Topeka Correspondence Kansas City Star.
A revival of the building OF storm
caves or cellars has come in Kansas.
There have been four tornadoes In Kan
sas in the last two weeks. and travelling
men who were in Topeka today said more
holes were being dug In back yards
through Kansas at the present time than
in any of the last five or six years There
have been tornadoes this year at Bison,
In Rush county: near Independence; at
Preston. in Brown county, and at Gueda
Springs.
Eight or ten years ago nearly every
house in Kansas had it's cave, a hole in
the ground. with the roof level with the
surface of the soil. Sometimes the cave
was built little higher than the sur
rounding ground. For several years no
tornadoes came and the caves fell into
disuse. Then the caves were turned into
storage places for fruits and vegetables.
Some of these cyclone caves were built
at big expense. being walled up with
stone or brick.

Boys in Housework.
nm the New York Mail.

From the New 1Orh sidli.
Judge Sims Of the juvenile court of wy
andotte county. Kan. strongly urges
mothers to train their boys in the ordl-
nary routine of housework. He holds
that by so doing they will not only
strengthen their hold upon the confidence
Of their sons. but will. at the same time'
help the youngsters to be both useful and
Independent.
The theory Of the Kansas jurist has
been put into actual practice In the state
Of Oregon. The high school In the town
OF McNinville conducts regular course
Of cooking and housework for boys. and
the results so far have proved thoroughly
satisfactory. The boys receive practical
instruction in plain cooking and other
branches Of housework. and the course
has become the most popular one in the
entire school routine.
The boy cooks of McMinville are so
deeply interested in their work that in a
recent competition with the girls of the
cooking class in the same school they
proved the winners on every point.

REV. p. C. WRIGHT SPEAKS
ON THE SQUARE DEAL
Shop Talk at Cutlery With Violin Sc
lections by Rev. Donald 3. McLane,

Rev. P, c. Wright of the Central
Baptist church was the speaker. and
Rev Donald B. MacLane of Taftville
Congregational church rendered two
violin solos at the shop meeting Fri
day at noon, at the cutlery at Thames
vile, which is one in the series of shop
talks under the auspices of the Y NJ.
&c. A. He spoke upon The Square
Deal, declaring that the condition of
society. especially along industrial
lines indicated the need Of the square
deal
Its realization would make business
more stable, investments more secure,
the condition of labor less uncertain,
wages better, and the relation of in
come to the cost of living more equita-
BILE. the application of the law to So
cial wrongs more direct and just, in
fact, our whole social fabric would be
improved.
The need of square deal was
illustrated by the Lawrence strike.
The results of that strike cannot be
righted for a generation. he said. Its
wrongs affected the capital invested
the men and women engaged in labor
the children i'm the homes and the
public at large The financial. social
and moral results win be felt for years
to come. He further Illustrated the
need of q square deal by the threat
ened coal strike. which win involve
not only the operators and the miners
but 90,00O.GPO people in this country.
Rev. Mr.. Wright also illustrated the
need of a square deal by the number
of insane. epileptic and dependents to
be found in society, a third of whom
owe their dependency to the saloon.
He then went on to say that the square
deal is 3 moral issue and not a mat
ter of 3ollars and cents, not ques-
ton of wages and dividends. but d
question of how one man deals with
anothed' in behalf of others. A square
deal Gill never be realized while the
predofninating spirit of men is to get
all tbat is possible regardless of the
RICH rs of all other people. A square
deal demands honesty. The man who
is not honest in his work will not
give a square deal.
A square deal demands unselfsh-
ness We cannot give the best there
is in us if we are only thinking of our
own welfare. More and more the
81 andard of life is demanding that we
Snail regard the rights and welfare of
Others.
A square. deal demands the highest
spirit of manhood which is known,
and none higher is known than that
which was represented in Christ God
| is leading US by the necessities Of our
society to realize the need that each
man has of the Christian spirit. A
| square deal in its highest analysis is
| the expression of the Christian spirit
