No Methodist Game.
The Yellow and White team IS una
BILE to get a game from the Metho-
dists owing to the fact that the ath-

that the facilities for games and prac-
tice at Greencastle were too meagre
to develope a team.
Last years games with Notre Dame
proved too much for the Quaker squad
although in the first game the Earl

BY LEO L. REDDIkC.

1t is seldom that a person can be
found who has an adequate under
standing of the relation that railroad
bears to a community, or the relation
that a community bears to it's rail
roads Few recognize the fact that
the community. as we'll as the indi-
vidual owes anything to the railroad
New York, the greatest city in the
western world, recently found that it
had long neglected to give thought and
study to its transportation problems,
1t is trifle startling to learn that New
York has been compelled to form a
Freight Bureau to protect its mer-
chants from injustice.
It Is easy for the present generation
to forget that the railroad is a mod
ern institution; that in effect it has
been developed during the last quarter
Of century. There are now living men
and women who were born many
years before the first locomotive ever
turned a wheel in this country. The
quicker it is understood that the pros
roads depend upon the proper attitude
will be for business interests.
Fair Deal Necessary.
The railroads must understand that
Richmond may always tie depended
upon to deal fairly with them, and
that it may always be depended upon
to insist upon fair treatment for itself.
Richmond must stand as unit in
dealing with its transportation prob
lens if it is to get anywhere with
them. The city government cannot
deal with this problem for the individ-
ual merchant, but the commercial or
ganization of the city can, and will
do so if it has your loyal support.
Every man for himself" never put
any town on the may.
There is a certain community of in
terest that should bring together man
ufacturers, merchants, carriers and
traffic attorneys. You have in your
commercial organization the vehicle
for bringing together these interests
Richmond should have a Traffic Blu.

should make a careful study of freight
classifications, rate making, discrimi

nations, and diferentials and claims
for shortage and overCharge.
Insist On Routinqs.
There is a local viewpoint to which
Richmond is entitled. You merchants
and manufacturers particularly should
insist upon your rights TO advan-
tageous routings. This is something
that you cannot obtain for yourselves,
except through united action.
This city is entitled to the lowest
possible rates considering the terri
tory or zones through which freight
shipments must be made. II is posi-
BILE that this town is entitled to and
can obtain a package car system. If so,
ii will be to the advantage of every
one whose destiny is connected with
the city that such service be estab-
lished.
There is another side to this Ques-
ton, and that is the good that a rail
road can do to community and con-
versely the harm that a railroad can
work upon a community. In times past
communities have been made and de-
stroyed to suit the Whim of railroad
magnate. 1t is we'll that those times
are no more. But it can hardly be eX-
peCted that any community will be ia
vOred by a railroad that receives only
unfair treatment from the community.
1t is up to you to take part in the
settlement OF these problems. You may
consider the mass an individual, but II
is not as an individual that you can
assist in their settlement. 1t is only
through organization that The proper
relation between a railroad and a com
munity can be adjudged, which again
brings us back to the truism: The first
duty of a citizen is to the organization
that is protecting and upbuilding the
interests of the community in which
he lives

ter with her son when sickness
ended her career. Her husband

SMALLPOX

The epidemic of smallpox in
Oklahoma serves as an illustrat-
ion of the cost to a community
of one infectious disease. The
people are leaving their homes
and places of business and the
section is quarantined.
If people would practice vac
cination not a single case of
smallpox need develop. The
cost of vaccination to the infect
ed areas would be only a small
percent of the cost of the dis
ease.
1t may be truly said that at
this time there is no grounds fol-
the presence of smallpox save
the lack of knowledge and pre-.
judice of the people. If a gooG
vaccine is used and antiseptiC
precautions taken, severe re
actions rarely occur.
Smallpox may, very easily,
be brought from Oklahoma tC
Missouri. Every person should
look into this question and pro.
tect himself from smallpox.
Address questions on prevent,
ion of disease to Preventive
Medicine, University of Missouri,
Columbia.

Grand River Is Low.

The Grand river is lower than
it has been for many years ac-
cording to the reports from Chill
licothe where the people are in
terested because the city water
works gets its supply Of water
from this stream. The water
level in the river proper is below
the suction valves usually de-
pended upon but the long extens-
ion pipes reach into deep holes
which are fed by springs instead
Of rivulets. No shortage of water
is expected because of this
spring-feeding, as these springs
are thought to be sufficient to
keep the wells going for years
even though the river proper was
shut off from its usual water
sources. 1t will take some good
rains to bring up the level of the
water to the usual spring freshet
Staye.

Strong for Silage

R. E. Phelps brought in today
three carloads of shortfed steers
from the Vanselous ranch, locat-
ed near Ponca, Ok. Mr.. Phelps
stated that this was the first
shipment out of a string of SOC
on feed at the ranch. Then he
explained how well these steers
were doing, and told about the
new ration that was being used
on the ranch.
"Silage a little corn and cotton
seed meal, made up the ration
these steers were fed on, {" he
said. ''0n our ranch there are
nine silos of $50 tons each.
These were filled last season
with corn and kaffr corn. Those
who have ever fed silage will
not deny the fact that it is the
greatest of all feed for adding
fat, when mixed with a little
grain or cotton seed meal. Ther
it is the cheapest of all rations. .

Improve Telephone Office.

The local telephone company is
making some fine improvements
at its Office which will have a
tendency to facilitate business in
every department. A railing
partially solid and surmounted
with grillwork is being placed
enclosing the entire interior Of
the Office excepting the two tele-
phone booths which are for pub

In Memoriarn

Death has again entered the
sanctum sanctorum and borne
from the lodge below to the sup
rene lodge above our friend and
brother, James 7. Robinson.
Brother Robinson was born in
Clark county Kentucky June 20,
1880. He came to Boone County
Missouri when a young man
where he was married to Miss
Nancy Jane Boggs in 1852 in
Boone County Missouri. To this
union was born seven children;

M. later was transferred to
Westville Lodge No. 202 where
he proved to be one of the most
efficient faithful working mem
bers the lodge ever had. He was
elected master and reelected
time and again where he proved
very efficient. He was ready at all
times ready and willing to work
where ever he was assigned to
duty. His good wife had pre-
ceeded him some years ago to
the spirit world. They were
both members of the Missionary
Baptist church where they were
loved and respected by all who
knew them. He moved with his
family from Bucklin, Mo. to
Westville, Mo. to his farm west
of Westville in 1866 where he
raised his family. After the death
of his good wife he made his
home with his son-in-law, Joseph
Riley near Westville, Mo. where
he died on the 9th. day Feb.

His Tale Of Woe

A man with a heart-interest
hard luck story and some jewelry
of a virtue unknown to the
casual observer, was in the
town Tuesday telling a story Of
need and trying to dispose of
some jewelry, a watch, ring,
etc. He said he was up against
it and wanted to get enough
money to pay his board here and
to weather him through a can
vassing trip to other towns in
this vicinity. He looked for
uncle" but this relative was
not to be found here. Failing to
pledge his stuff he trayersed the
business streets up one side and
down the other trying to sell his
stock. If he did, no one seems
to know anything about it. He
missed the car at No. 2 and later
was driven post haste in a rig to
the station when he caught the
train on the run. Whether he
left some victim behind whom he
feared would get him if he did
not leave hurriedly, also has not
been told the reporter although
this kind Of perambulating
.jewelry salesman gives a man as
many chances of being soaked as
any persons would really desire.
This is a good kind of merch-
ant to avoid.

One Busy Superintendent.

C. C. Carlstead is a busy man.
He now is working on the job Of
getting out the diplomas issued
to students in the county who
have managed to get through
either FIVE months of the school
year or the entire year without
being either tardy or absent. The
number of those on the first of
these rolls Of honor, last year,
went to about $500 while those
on the latter list who attended
school an entire year without a
demerit along attendance or tar
diness numbered 500. These are
just a few Of the little jobs of
the county superintendent. Of
these, of course a record has to
be kept and the files of county
superintendent Office would
make the average bank account
ant look sick. 1t is some job be-
| ing county superintendent and
this does not include his visits to
each school each year, verifeat-
ion of records sent in from each
school, his presence at school
festivities, etc. Mr.. Carlstead
manages to keep rather busy.
