MORE WORkMEN

with demands for more than forty
thousand harvest hands rising in Nebras-
ka, Oklahoma and other Western States
General Kelleys army of unemployed
continues to move steadily eastward.
Some Napoleonic strategy thatp'
The foregoing humorous para
graph shows that there is some
thing radically wrong with condi-
tons in the western states. We
hear this statement in substance
every year. We assume it to be
fact that each year at harvest
time the western states are short
on hands to the extent of forty to
fifty thousand.
The harvest season lasts but
only a short time and the unem-
ployed of the east could not af-
ford to pay their railroad fares, to
to say nothing of giving up their
homes, to go west for the short
space of time for which their SER
vices would be needed. The
fact that there is nothing for
them to do after harvest until the
next harvest, would leave them
idle for about eleven months in
the year. tits not to be suppos-
ed that the farmers of the west
would keep forty thousand labor
ers in their employ for over elev-
en- months in order that they
may secure their services for a
brief period of two or three
weeks.
1t is evident that conditions
must be changed and the size of
farms must be materially reduced
in order to afford work perma-
nently to the number of men nee
essary to handle the crops. Con-
ditions will always remain as
they are in so far as a shortage
of help is concerned, until farms
are sub-divided and sold to bona
fde settlers.

Alumni Banquet

The sixth annual Alumni Re-
ception and Banquet of the East
ern State Normal was held on
Friday evening in Sullivan Hall,
from eight till eleven.
The guests were received and
welcomed by Prof. Wren Grin
stead, Mrs. Roark, Mrs. Lynn
and Mr.. and Mrs. Wootton, the
two former leading the way to
the banquet hall. This was most
tastefully decorated, the columns
OF the room being wrapped with
green, while in the center of each
table was a bowl of roses and
ferns. The many lights from the
ceiling were shaded with crimson
which shed a rosy light over all
and added to the beauty of the
scene.
A very delicious menu of sal
ads and ices were served the
class colors green and white, be-
ing perfectly carried out in the
brick cream, individual cake and
minis. The place cards were
hand-painted bOW-knOtS in green
and the years 19O7-1914.
Prof. Grinstead acted as toast
master and with his ready wit
and quick repartee made the
evening one of genuine delight.
The first toast of the evening,
"The Grace of Everyday" was
given by Miss Mason of the class
of '08. Culture not Show" by
Miss HORNE of IA. ''Fancy's
Knell," Miss Hendren of '13.
Miss Gibson and Mr.. Starns were
unable to be present.
Prof. ]. G. Koch sang two num-
bers very delightfully."- and the
evening closed with the toast
"But after ALL" by Miss Kelly of
the class of IL. The guests then
departed voicing in their hearts
the. sentiment of Goldsmith;
"Blest be those feasts with SIM
pie plenty crowned"

Get Ready Boys And Go
Down

The Stanford Interio r
Journal says that the biggest
thing that has been held at a fair
in this part of Kentucky in many
years has been put on the pro-
gram for the great Knights of
Pythias Fair in Stanford Aug. 49,
20-21. This is nothing less than
a thousand dollar saddle stake
and a five hundred dollar har-
ness horse stake. The $1,000
saddle stake will be on the second
day of the fair and the $500 har-
ness stake will be on the third
day.

DANCING

Now while the question of
dancing is absorbing the interest
of a very large number of people
of the United States, and since
they have agreed at a meeting
at Cleveland, to eliminate some
of the curves and Wriggles from
the dances, we have concluded
to give our readers the benefit of
the description of some of latest
tango, maxixe, hesitation and
other steps together with some
pictures illustrating the steps, and
let them determine for them
selves what they think of the
same. These dances will appear
each week for a month or more.
At this meeting at which 300
dancing masters were present,
Prof. MacLennan, of Edinburgh,
Scotland, demonstrated the new
er dances, among which the Par
isian version of the tango, Make,
and the La Fuerlana, suggested
by Pope Plus x, as the substi-
tute for the tango, were the most
popular.

Cost More Than Expected

A prominent contractor, who
has just finished his work on the
new Winchester-Irvine line, said
yesterday that the cost per mile
to the railroad company would
exceed $4,000, many thousands
of dollars more than it was ex-
pected to cost. This contractor
claims he lost $4,000 on his work
near Estill lines on account of
slides, which were a great sur
prise. He attributes these to the
soap stone in the fills which has
caused the contractors d great
deal of extra work and money on
the new line.

There is a wise man writing
paragraphs for the Cincinnati
Enquirer. This is the advice he
gives to girls who have acquired
the tango habit: "The best way
to dance the tango is for the girl
to keep one arm around her self
respect and the other arm around
her modesty and be careful what
she does with her feet"

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Oct. 21.-
One hundred and sixty "wanderlust-
ers' from Washington spent Sunday
at Harper's Ferry, W. Va. The wan

early in the spring with the object OF
giving those who were employed all
week an opportunity to take inter-
esting walks on Sunday and get into
| closer touch with nature. The move
ment was successful far beyond the
dreams OF those who inaugurated it.
1t was found that among the various
governmental departments there were
men and women with wide knowl-
edge OF nature, who were only await.
ing this opportunity to inspire 9TH
ers. Each Sunday the trips have
been made, and have grown during
The summer to such numbers in mem
bcrship that the parties have been
divided. An early morning party
leaves Washington about 1880 and
Il later one in the afternoon. These
are under the leadership Of men or
women who know the route that is
to be covered, and they have one and
iall proven most delightful. Sunday
the party from Washington was met
at Harper's Ferry by DR.. F. c. Stot-
Ter, OF that place, and who was the
leader for the day. He was assisted
by the Boy Scouts and the Ladies'
Walking club Of Harper's Ferry. The
party scaled spur of the Blue Ridge
and enjoyed a picnic dinner at "Tri-
Rock" where Maryland. Virginia and
West Virginia join. Most of the day
was spent on the West Virginia side,
where the panoramic view below of
the river valleys for many miles was
greatly enjoyed. DR.. Stotlcr received
many urgent invitations from the
Washingtonians to join them in their
hikes" near Washington, where they
might make some return for the gra-
cious and hospitable treatment they
received from their West Virginia
leader.

The Norwegian sealers still cruise
about the sea as far north as il is

Norway from Othar, in King Alfred's
