The Sunshine Club of Washington yes
terday afternoon gave a most successful
performance OF THE Old Vermont Farm,
a rural comedy, at the Columbia Theater
for the benefit of a projected home ana
club for working girls, to be organized
in the near future.
The play, which was filled with bright
lines and amusing situations, was pre-
sented under the direction of G. stuart
Brodock by a cast OF experienced Wash
ington amateurs. A number OF song and
dance numbers added much to the at
tractiveness Of the performance.
The plot of the play hung about love
affair between Ruth, an ignorant. but
winsome, country girl, and Frank Rails
ton, an artist and member of a fashion,
able and wealthy family. Rallston mar
ried the country girl against the wishes
of his mother, thinking he could teach
her the ways Of the world. He soon be-
came dissatisfied and drove the girl to
leave him by his constant criticisms

try girl returned from long visit to

were reconciled-
Miss Agnes Edna Nelson, who took the
leading part Of Ruth, was most attrac-
tive, while Mrs. Howell Smith, as Mrs.
RaIlstou, gave a finished Interpretation,
which did much to brins about the sue
cess of the performance. George Mish

from all over the United States.
Some delegates came from New Jer-
sey. 1t was about the first OF May
that the meeting was held, Just az
ter farmers had listed a great deal
Iof their corn, the corn, for the most
part. not having come up yet. These
delegates from New Jersey did not
know what listed cor was. or the
method OF listing corn. When they
saw the long ridges OF dirt across
fields the corn had been listed In,
they though the fields were fields
of sweet potatoes and the ridges the
sweet potato ridges. "Just look
what great fields. of sweet potatoes"
they would say when the train pass
ed by a big corr field. whoever
dreamed that Kansas was such a
sweet potato country?" They were
surprised to learn that corn had
been planted in all those sweet po-
tato fields.-Osborn Farmer.

INCREASE rs LARGE IN
KANSAS HIGH SCHOOLS

Topeka, Sept. 16.-Figures com
piled in the office of w. D. Ross
state superintendent of public In
struction, show that since 1912 the
increase of enrolment in all the
schools of the state. has been less
than two per cent: in the same time
the increase in the high school en-
rollment has been 10 per cent.
These figures did not include the
figures for the school year of 1912
10, all Of which are not yet avail
able. Those already in indicate that
more than 80 per cent of the grad
yates of the graded schools in the
cities started to high schools. last
fall, and slightly more than so per
cent of the rural graded school grad
yates also enrolled for high school
work.
The increase in high school at
tendance the last few years is attri-
buted by Superintendent Ross large
ly to the increasing number of free
tuition high schools. Sixty-five coun-
ties in Kansas now have one or
more high schools where tuition is
free not only to children in the
city or district, but to other dis

"We have discovered that we can

farmers spent a little more money
last spring in preparing to take
care of their cattle during drouth
season, fewer cattle would have been
sent to market. The stock raisers
would all have money today.
