III all Things were just what they seem. |
If dross were really gold,
II milk were always rich with cream.
If women meier grew old,
If life were all time of joy,
If love would always last,
If pleasure never had alloy,
If dies need not be cast,
If we were paid for having fun,
If wishes would come true.
II Fate were kind to every one,
If we had autos too,
If all our luck were always good,
If men were free from guile,
If people did just what they should,
If clothes would stay in style.
If ashes only burned like coal,
If missions all were fair,
If humorists were always droll,
If we were each an heir,
If rent day didn't come around,
If sirloin steaks were free,
II turkey cost ten cents a pound
How happy we might be!

AN APPRECIATED GIFT.

The local Masonic orders received
a gift from Grand Master E. c. Colt
last week that will be doubly appre
ciated from the fact that 1t was pre-
scented to them by the Grand Mas
ter Of the state, and also from the
fact that 1t Is the picture OF a de
parted brother who was held in the
very highest esteem by all. The gifr
was an enlarged portrait Of the latt
G. N. Moses which Mr.. Cole had
had made to hang in his own office
but which he decided to present tc
the Masonic bodies, and In his pres
entation speech he spoke Of the Ions
and intimate friendship between hin
and Mr.. Moses, Of the latteris life
50 true to the ancient traditions ant
teachings Of Masonry, and the bene
ficant influence his life had been t
all who knew him.
On behak Of the oder, ]. E. Nc
Mullen accepted the git which is ont
which is certainly appreciated by eV
cry member Of the lodge.

NEW COUNTY TREASURER.

Monday was the last day Of ]. W.

er, A. Srbwager taking charge Of
he office Tuesday morning. He has
been falniiiarizing himself with the
work for tie past few weeks and is
taking hold Of things like an old tim
er, ami will no doubt prove to be
as capable in hls new office as he
was in the office Of county assessor.
He will be assisted in the office by
his daughter, Miss Isabel, as deputy.
During the three terms that Mr..
Soderstrom has filled the office of
county treasurer. he has proven him
self one Of the most capable men
WHO have ever filled that office. He
has been careful and pains-ta&ing in
mis- work, Pleasant in his relations
with all vino hae any dealings with
the office and obliging in every way
possible, and can retire from office
with the satisfaction of having serv-
ed the people If the county in an
acceptable AMI satisfactory manner,
and with the well wishes for the fu-
ture of all who krow him. He is at
present undecided whether to remain
in Great Bend or move to New Mex
leo where he has real estate invest
meIts, and his many friends trust
that he will decide On the former.

is AHEAD ON THE GAME.
Farmer Loses Chickens But Finds
Good Pay For Them.

John Berscheidt who lives close to
the Rice county line. was here last
week attending the fair and was re-
lating an insident which occurred IN
his leighborhoOd which illustrates the
fact that sometimes misfortune is not
as bad as it seems.
One morning, but a short time ago,
one Of the farmers living in Mr.
Berscheidtis vicinity, found that al
most their entire flock of chickens
had disappeared during the night.
The gentleman at once began to
look around the premises in the hope
of finding some trace Of who had
appropriated the fowls, and finally
close to the chicken house found a.
good fat pocketbook, containing not
only a considerable sum of money,
but the name of the owner as well.
1t was not very many hours until
the man whose name appeared IN the
pocbetbook as its owner, appeared on
the scene and casually inquired of
the farmer whether or not he had
any poultry for sale but was inform
ed that unfortunately the whole lot
had been stolen the night before.
The would-be buyer expressed the
proper sympathy for the occasion ard
insisted that he be shown the hen
house as he thought he might find a
clue that had escaped the farmer g
eye, and inquired anxiously il the
farmer had discovered amy clue as
to who the guilty party was, Mr.
Farmer feigned entire ignorance In
the matter, and bet the fellow take
his time diligently searching In and
around the house for clues, but he
says the fellow spent the most of
the time looking around ON the
ground as If in search of something
ne might himself have lost, and he
finally departed, but without men
tioning the pocketbook with the roll
OF money that was all the time re-
posing in Mr.. Farmers jeans.
1t seems to be a satisfactory deal
all around. The farmer has a whole
lot more money than the chickens
would have sold for en- the market
anywhere, and the other fellow evi-
IDENTIFY feels that it is better to lose
the money than to answer some of
the embarrassing questions which
might be asked If he should demand
the return of the same.
But it's a good bet that the next
time he goes on a chicken raising
EXPEDITION, he will leave his money
and calling cards at home.

LIBRARY NOTICE.

At a recent meeting Of the library
board it Was decided that for the
present the library would be open
from 10 to II a. m, in addition to
its regular hours.
While the library is open to the
general public during these new hours
as in the afternoon and evening, yet
the special reason the board had in
mind in opening more hours wes to
give the High School and other stu
dents Of our. schools more oppcrtun-
ity to do their reference work during
the day.
II is sincerely hoped that the par
ents and teachers will help to see
that in as far as possible all school
work necessary at the library be
done during the regular school hours
or immediately thereafter.

REAL MISSIONARY SPIRIT.
Community Near Hoisington Applies
Practical Golden Rule.

Not all the missionaries Of this bul-
u old country are in Africa or China.
o. other thorin' foreign seaports.
There are a whole lot Of them scat
tered all Ground US. and they are do
Ing the real missionary work every
day, which means that they are do
hg it in the transformations manner
which is pleasing to that first Great
Missionary, the lOwly Nazarene.
Over in the community northwest
OF HoisingtoI there lie a whole SET
Element Of these real missionaries,
people whc believe in doing onto
others as they wculd have them do
onto them, helping the fellow who
Is down to get back on his feet once
more. No wonder everyone who is
acquainted WITH the people there de-
clare ;ney are the best in the world.
There is mighty good grounds fer
the assertion. Concerning their most
recent deed OF neighborly kindness,
the Hoisington Dispatch of last week
has the following:
James F. Finn has been troubled
considerably With rheumatism this
summer and ha: hardly been able to
gel around. hut last Thursday made
preparations to SOW his wheat and
went CIT to the farm even though
he could hardly walk Imagine his sur.
prise when he found that his neigh
hors had Leaf him to it" and had
his wheat all in the ground, ready
for the bumper crop in 1914.
:. This is the third time this season
that the farmers in this vicinity have
gone together and done the work for
some 'neighbor whom the hand Of mis-
fortune has touched. Just before
harvest, Roy Conroi' suffered a brok-
IN leg in a runaway and was in
the hospital for three months. His
neighbors gathered and cut his wheat,
} while the women folks Of the COM
mnnity prepared dinner. Recently Con
rad Qchs was k:lleu by lightning and
the neighhors gathered and put his
wheat crop in. and now they have
ku,Ded the flyo: to Mr. Finn.
This community sets good ex-
ample for others tC follow. It makes
q fellow feel like he lived in a good
nsighborhood- where everyone has
kindly feelins for his neighbor, and
al were nor selfisaly chasing the al
mighty dollar.
Those who helped SOW wheat for
MIR. FiGn were Pete Kingston, John
ochs, Ed Finn, Will and Ed Elliott,
John Finn, jim and Abe Corrigan,
Nelson Lane. Clarence Hickey, Mace
and Charles Finn and c. ]. McNally.
A numter of the ladies gathered and
served dinner for those who done the
work.

VISITING OLD FRIENDS.

John Boese. for many years a res
ident Of this county, but for the
past four or five years living at
Portland. Ore, came in last Friday
To look after his extensive farming
interests here and to spend a few
days visiting with relatives and old
neiehbors and friends. Mr.. Boese Is
or his way home after a visit Of a
few weeks in different parts of Penn.
sylvania, North Carolina and also in
Washington. D. c., and he is Of the
opinion that old Kansas has all Of
that country beaten in several differ
eat ways. John Is an agriculturahst
and the farming country back where
he visited didn't appeal to him a
little bit. However, he thinks the
country around Portland is Just a lit.
tie tie finest in the world. He says
the crops weer fine there this year,
oats yielding from 70 to 80 bushels
per scre, barley about the same and
wheat from 30 to 80 bushels. Lots of
hops ere raised in that part Of the
country, and this crop was extra good
this year. He says that the hop
picking time is made a sort Of big
sDnual picnic which is participated
IL by men, women and children alike
end the towns are practically desert.
ed during this season, as rich and
poor alike go out to help gather the
crop, as they have a fine time in ad-
dition to making good wages. John
says he tried 1t this year himself foe
the first time and had no trouble IN
making 1915 per day, while exper-
fenced rickers can easily make s..
Mr. Boese has ten acres Of fine
land Just six miles from the center
OF Portland, and he is going to have
the same cleaned and will erect a
fine home there. The ground at
present is covered with immense
timber, some of the trees being over
SIX feet in diameter and from two
to three hundred feet high. About
enough can be realized from the sale
Of the wood to pay for the clearing.
John says he tried working UP one
Of the trees himself, but after he
had gotten out 16 cords of wood he
decided that the tree was too big for
him to handle and he turned the Job
over to some one else. The whole
family like their new home very
much, but at that John says they
are always mighty glad to hear
from the people in old Barton, and
II any Of cur readers are ever out
that way, he would be glad if they
would hunt him up.
