William C. Olson was born in
Sweden, April 20. 1887.
In 1855, after a voyage of nine
weeks and three days. he arrived in
America with his parents and settled
on farm in Knox county, Illinois,
where ne resided until the breaking
out of the Civil war
In April, 1861. he enlisted in Com
pany ID. nth Regiment Illinois
Volunteer Infantry. During the
following summer his regiment was
frequently engaged in guerilla war
fare in Missouri and Kentucky. and
in october of that year they partici-
pated in their first real engage
ment, at Frederickstown, Mo. During
the winter and spring of 1S61-62 his
regiment took part in the battles of
Fort Henry and Fort Donaldson, and
in numerous slxirmishes while eros
sing the country between the Cum
berland and Tennessee rivers. On
April 6, 1862, he was shot through
the hips in the engagement of. the
battle of Shiloh. He was reported
mortally wounded but after months
of suffering he recovered sufficiently
to return home, and was never able
to again join his regiment.
In 1862 he engaged in the harness
and saddelry business at Wataga,
Illinois, and that was his principal
avocation up to the time ofhis death.
On May 10, 1868, he was united in
marriage to Miss Margaret William
son, at Wataga, Illinois, and in March,
1879, he came with his family to Wa
Keeney, Kansas, and he has resided
here continuously since that time.
In Illinois Mr.. Olson held number
of positions of honor and trust, and
since coming to Wa-Keeney he has
served as Deputy U. S. marshal and
represented this county in the lower
branch of the state legislature, as
we'll as having been called by vote
of the people to fill other positions of
less importance.
In 1876 he was raised to the sub
lime degree of Master Mason, and
at the time of his death he was the
Oldest member of the Wa-Keeney
lodge, both in age aud membership
He was charter member of the G.
a. r. Post, which was organized a.
bout 80 years ago.
The wound he received at Shiloh
has caused Mr.. Olson more or less
suffering during all these years, and
undoubtedly it was the remote cause
of his taking away. In March, 1912,
he was stricken with paralysis, and
he had declined gradually since that
time. On Friday, September 4, 1914,
he suffered a second paralytic stroke,
and one week later--on Friday morn
ing last, at 5 o'clock-he passed away.
Mr.. Olson is survived by his wife and
three sons.
The funeral was held from the
home at O'Clock last Sunday after
noon, the Rev. ). f. Johnson, an old
time friend of the family, being sum-
moned from his home in Narka
Kansas, to conduct the services. The
music was by choir composed of
Mr.. and Mrs. A. FL. Blair, Ray Ufiord
and Mrs. A. B. Jones, with Mrs. w.
L. Larrabee at the piano. The mem
bers of the Masonic, Eastern Star
and G. A. E. orders attended in a
body. The pail bearers we're selected
from the Masonic membership, and
the ceremony at the grave was ac-
cording TO the ritual of that order.

Over 80 per cent of the schools
opened the 7th of September. The
teachers and county superintendent
feel grateful to the school board for
this. Where schools begin much
later it is not possible for pupils to
be inharmony with any of the bi-
monthly examinations during the
year, which deprives them of several
credits for their final grades.
And the school boards are to be
fumigating buildings Every school
house visited the past two weeks
was found in good sanitary condition.
The outside of school buildings is
likewise not neglected as a rule.
The community seems to feel that a
nicely painted and we'll kept school
building reflects credit upon every
person in the locality.
M. A. Chamberlain, director of
school board district 27, Franklin,
stopped for short call at the office
to discuss the ad visibility of repair
ing and painting the school house
when no school could be held this
year. They graduated all the pupils
last year and now have no one to at
Mr. I,or rlai

Utica High school. Mr.. Chamber
lain is one of our most progressive
school men who believes in up-to-date
school buildings both outside and
inside.
OF the sixty three teachers teaching
in our schools last year thirty-two
are again at work in this county.
The following accepted the same
places: High SCHOOL,. FL. Niesley,
Miss Levin; common schools. Wa

The schools this year are fortunate
in having a large per centage of
musical teachers. Singing adds life
and inspiration to work. In several
of the schools teachers give music
and singing lessons two or three times
a week in place of tht regular morn
ing exercises, which seems to be high
ly appreciated by pupils and patrons.

The country teachers are complain
ing of small classes in the 8th and
9th grades. 1t seems that the un-
usually busy season is keeping the
larger pupils out of school. They
will enter in few weeks but that is
when the trouble begins. 1t seems
hardly fair to keep back those who
enter at the beginning of the term,
or to give them shorter lessons until
the remainder of the class can make
up for lost time. And yet, those who
were compelled to be absent because
of work at home ought to be helped
in some manner. Now is the time
when teachers and pupils must exer-

right. Hurrah for the King of the
Islands!
Sixteen years ago this country was
at war with Spain. That war aroused
great deal of enthusiasm in this
country and very little opposition
Now, q great war is going on in
Europe but it is very generally
deprecated by the people of the
United States Why this difference2
Is it because of the peace propaganda
of the last few years? or, does it
make so much difference whose OK is
gorede Are we growing wiser? Or
have the nations now at war less
cause for war? Really, has there ever
been just and adequate cause for
war?
Beware of the King of the islands,
The King of the Cannibal Islands!
Although he won't fight, mayhap he
will bite. Look out for the King of

People are bewailing the effect of
the supply of German chemicals and
some say we should have factories
and produce these articles at home.
That is good protective tariff doc
trine, all right, but when it comes
from free trade democrat it sounds
very much like death bed confes-
sion. However, while the lamp holds
frr vi cir
turn.
If you want calling down, or if
you really wish to learn something a.
bout early local history or the hard
winter of seventeen sleven, Just make
few positive statements on these
topics in the presence of some old
timers. They'll soon open up and
come across with facts that you never
knew, or may have forgotten, and if
you are properly appreciative you
will not be offended, but grateful. 1t
seems probable that Hiram Hudson,
whose people settled at Trego Tank
in 1877, is the earliest oid-t1mer now
living in the county. He attended a
snbscri ption school the following
winter, or the next, which was
taught by Mrs. Monroe in build
ing which stood just north of the
Croft barn. cThe building was later
owned by Auctioneer Sawtelle and
probably is the building now used as
a barn on the L. G. Johnson farm. J
1t is probable that Mrs. H M. Shaw
has lived in the county longer than
any other person now living here,
the family of her father &C. w. f.
Street) coming here about January,
1878. 1t further appears that the
harness making business of W. c..
Olson and SON an1edates the butcher
business of w. G. Baker, being longer
under the same management though
probably not longer in one place
Notwithstanding its imperfections
and it's brevity, Victor b. Buck, of
Danbury. Connecticut, orders copy
of the Vest Pocket History of Trego
county. The Buck ranch in Trego
county is now known as the Jones
East Ranch.
