Another Year.

Today we must write it 1918. The
year 1912 with its joys and Its sor-
rows has gone into history. For
some of us it brought great sadness
for others only enough darkness to
make to the joys shine out as the
bright sunshine after days of gloom.
The change in writing the year
brings more forcibly to US that
time is swiftly speeding by and
with it our opportunities for doing
good for our fellow man. Each one
of us was given a place on the
worlds stage in order to fit our
souls for that temple not made
with hands, eternal in the Heaven
and also to help smooth out the
rough places in the lives of our
fellow man and to help make his
life more pleasant as he journeys
through this place of preparation
for eternity. Are we doing our
duty or are we shirking3 We are
all marching onward to a grander
and greater city which the great
Architect of the Universe has build
ed. Let us hope that we all may
so conduct our lives here that we
may finally reach the city of
delight.
But while we are ionrneying to-
another world, we are confronted
with a fact. That fact is we are
here, there are conditions which we
must meet. Food and raiment
must be provided. This, the great
majority of US must earn by the
sweat Of the brow. In this we Can
be of mutual assistance and we
should help to lessen the loads each
must carry. Let us not be selfish,
but do all we can to help our neigh
Dor prosper In so doing we will
help the locality in which we live
the state, the nation, the world and
will be doing our duty to our
selves, our fellow man. our Creator

For Good Roads.

The county line west from this
city was not selected by Curtis
Hill, State Highway Engineer to be
a part of the Hannibal-St. Joseph
Cross State Highway. The people
living on that road, however, are
going to see that it is as good a
road as is to be found in this part
of the country, and have shipped
in two cars of crushed rock and
have put part of the road in first
class condition. Harry McChntic
took subscription paper to those
interested and secured eonsidera.
BILE money He then secured some
from Monroe and Marion Counties
The people along this route helieve
in good roads and are going to
have them. Their good example
is one which should be followed by
many Others.

Safety First.
of sender.

Last Friday afternoon just as
Burlington fast train No. ID was
pulling into town, a little girl in a
one horse top buggy with the side
curtains on, drove across the track
at the first crossing west of the de-
pot, the pilot of the engine mis- sing
the buggy by only few feet. A
terrible accident was narrowly
averted, one that would have shock
ed the entire community had it
happened Eye witnesses standing
on the depot platform turned their
heads to avoid seeing the seemingly
certain destruction of the buggy and
its contents, The railroads are max
ing every effort to educate the pub
lie as well as their employees to re-
gard safety first of all. Parents and
others should continually remind
children of the danger on the rail-
road tracks and that extreme eau
ton should be exercised at all times
when crossing the tracks and run
no risks, Many accidents could be
avoided if people could realize the
importance of regarding safety above
all things.

D. E. Yowell is going to establish
a much needed line in this city. He
is going to open a place where
farmers can take their teams when
in the city and tie them where
everything will be safe. Mr.
Yowell's place of business win be
the Col, w. I, Youell barn just
south of the Burlington depot. d.
E. Yowell has recently bought this
property and is going to do some
thing that will be a convenience to
all farmers coming to this city.

Lundberg- Bixler.

Clarence Bixler and Miss Esther
Lundberg departed Tuesday for
Quincy. At the time of their de-
parture it was suspicioned that they
were going to be married. but at
that time it could not be ascertain
tanned for a fact, Yesterday we
learned that they were married but
the time and place could not be
found out,
They are both excellent young
people and their many friends will
forgive them this time All their
friends, and that is all who know
them. wish them long, happy
married life.

A Pleasant Occasion.

The big dance and supper given
last Thursday evening by the Altar
Society of ST. Stephens Church at
Indian Creek was one Of the most
pleasant occasions in the history of
that vicinity. The supper was
great but then there is no use tell
ing you about it being a good sup
per if you ever ate out there, About
As couple attended the dance The
Monroe City Orchestra under the
management of Mr. Pike furnished
the music and that means the
music was of the best and would
please all who lovegOod music.
The ladies netted about SIS 90 on
the entertainment and all who at
tended greatly enjoyed the occa-
sion.

DISASTROUS FIRE
Visited Monroe Last Thursday
Engine Failed to Answer
Promptly Bucket Brigade
Saved the Day.

ABOUT lE:3lD p. m. last thursday
smoke was seen coming out of the
northeast corner of the Conway &
Proctor lumber yard. This was
soon followed by a small blaze
which soon became big one.
In few minutes after the alarm
was sounded almost the entire lum-
Der yard was on fire and the heat
was intense. 1t looked at one time
as though a large part of the busi-
ness district and many residences
would be consumed The engine
could not be started for a long time
some say as minutes. The bucket
brigade started in early, however,
and by their heroic work the flames
were at last under control, but not
until the Conway & Proctor Lum-
ber Yard, the j. B. Bristow Machine
shop, the Cones & McAllister livery
barn, Dawson & Settle blacksmith
shop and several barns had been
burned down.
The losses so far as we can as
certain, are:
Conway & Proctor $4,000 In
surance $500.
Cones & McAllister on livery
$500 not covered by insurance.
Mrs. Susan Boarman livery stable
building $4,000, insurance $500.
Dawson & Settle building, ma
terial $500; no Insurance.
j. B Bristow machine shop, build
ing and material $4500; no insur-
ance.
Besides there were several barns
burned, and many have big dam
age caused by moving their mer-
chandise and household goods. 1t
is fortunate that the loss is no great
er as at one time the entire busi-
ness district South of the railroad
was in danger. Some of the busi-
ness houses, Grace Baptist church
and several residences were on fire
many times The bucket brigade
fought nobly and won the victory.
Again the Democrat says Monroe
needs a reliable fire engine and
needs it at once. Citizens of town
have lost enough to pay for several
engines and any day there may be
another fire
Cecil Dawson did what many
men would not have done. He kept
on trying to start the engine when
he might have been saving his own
property as he easily could have
gotten $1,000 worth out of his shop.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
Hats off to the boys who got the
fire under control and now all
must get to work for a reliable en-
CINE and at the earliest possible
moments a goodssystem of water
works ami sewerage.
