From the Denver Post we clip the following regarding the gown
of Mrs. John B Kendrck, which she will wear at the inauguration
of the governor in January. If any body doubts that they didnt
want the office for show, just glance over this:
(By Ella Miriam Sulivan)
Who says hard times? Not the wife of the newly elected COVER.
nor of Wyoming. No street And a certain Denver merchant, pro.
prietor of one of the most exclusive, if not the largest, shops for wo.
mems smart toys in the city, has cause to rejoice over this fact.
Some weeks ago Mrs j. B. Kendrick, while visiting in Denver
and doing some early fall shopping, made the statement that if her
husband was elected to the governorship of Wyoming she would re-
turn to Denver and the particular shop in question for another re-
Punishment of her wardrobe. Trne to her word, she not only did
this, but went On to New York in search of a gorgeous gown for the
inaugural bal. After spending a few days in Gotham's great shops
she wired the aforementioned proprietor of the Denver establishment
to come on to New York at her expense that she might have the ben
eft of his excellent taste and judgement in the selection of her gown
for this suspicious occasion.
Word comes from Americas present day paris" o city of fash
ions, that Mrs Hendricks costume will surpass in beauty any ever
worn at an inaugural reception in the west.
The 1915 legislature of Wyoming will soon be here and W e trulv

knowing what he is doing-will be shot 30 dead he won't kick.

Mary Young and Maud Miley won the egg race for Allendale. Tony Kelly and Leroy Cain won the sack race for Banner. The Basket Ball game went to Allen dale on a score of 20 to 1.
 The primary Spelling contest was won by Allendale, Steve Wilson being the only one stand ing when Banner school, after two hours of hard spelling, was finally swept from the floor.
 The advanced Spelling con- test, held the last thing in the evening. was won by Banner school. When the last represen- tative of Allendale went down Ruth Campbell, Blanche Morgan and Mary Fuller were still standing. A great shout went up from the Banner school and for ten minutes loud hurrahs and deafening yells told that the last and most important contest had ended in Banners favor.
 The honors were pretty evenly shared between the two schools and the reports from the papers now in the hands of the judges will be necessary to determine which school scored the most points. The children of both schools acquitted themselves creditably and their work gave evidence of cal eful and thorough training on the part of their teachers.
 Such contests do much to get teachers, pupils and patrons in- terested in school work and will result in the improvement of the schools, besides they will bring the communities closer together and create a pride and ambition to give to the children better educational advantages.
 Let us have some more of these contests that will wake up our people, then when the School Fair comes this fall we will be able to make creditable show ing for the schools of Monroe county.

Mrs. John B. Henderson, of Wash ington city has plan for landscape gardens that if carried out will be the finest of their kind in this country and will rival the Kew gardens of Lon don.

The Banner and Allendale Schools Meet En,kuSi- aStiCaily - HOnOrS
 lsivided

April 18th, 1914 will be long remembered by the pupils and the patrons at Banner and Allen- dale schools. Walter fl. Laney having charge of the Banner while Mrs. Throckmorton and Bruce Spears have charge of Allendale. On this date these two schools met at Allendale for a contest in Singing. Drawing, Declamation. Penmanship, Con- position, Spelling and Athletics.
 A similar contest had been held between these schools three weeks previousin which Banner school had been victorious in all these subjects. so both schools knew that they had a foe worthy of their best afforts and im- proved the time between the contests to the very best ad- vantage possible.
 The patrons of both schools had become intensely interested also, therefore when the contest began on the morning of April 18th great enthusiasm was mani. fested. A large crowd of patrons almost breathlessly witnessed the contests and seem- ed to enjoy the yells and songs as much as the children them- selves.
 The children, loyal to their respective schools, contended valliantly to uphold the good name and reputation of their schools and with the announce ment of each victory, yelled and shouted with an enthusiasm and energy that proved their mettle which will make of them men and women who will do things.
 A sumptuous dinner had been prepared by the people of both communities and when the noon hour came, everybody was in vited to come around and par take in the good old picnic style. Everything good to eat was there in aboundance and though the crowd was large, enough remained to have fed twice as many more.
 The contests were conducted in a spirit of friendly rivalry and were often so close as to be hard to determine.
 The reports as to the winners in Writing. Drawing and Con- position have not been received from the judges to whom they were sent for grading. so both schools are still claiming these subjects.
 The Fourth Grade Declamation contest was won by Gordon Summit. representing Allen dale school. The Fifth Grade Declamation contest was won by Willie Vicl., representing Banner school. 'T1o Sixth Grade Defamation cont st was declar- ed tie between Joe Simpson, of Allendale and Roy Ward of Banner school.

GRISxlEY's coNruIoA JUST NOW

There's not a town or city in all Arkansas that has so many real advantages in a business way as has Brinkley. and there fore when we see empty houses, lack of business, and a general depression of business conditions naturally enough it's just bit disheartening to those who believe in and are anxious to see growth and progress.
 Brinkley has one of the finest public schools in all Arkansas. has the finest and most modern churches of any city of like size in the South, has two good strong banks, has a splendid new sewerage system, and with all these, has as clever and as capable a set of business men (taken as a whole) as can be found anywhere, but with all this. there's something lacking.
 The something lacking in dear old Brinkley" is cooperation and organized effort.
 During the past few years l have had the opportunity of visiting nearly every town and city of any consequence in Ark ansas and have had business relations with the real pro- gressive business elements, not only of the Arkansas towns and cities but also with the same class in hundreds of the leading towns and cities of the greatest middle states from Pennsylvania to Nebraska. Therefore. I feel that l know whereof I speak when I see Brinkley's need.
 Everything that has ever been accomplished in Brinkley has come as a direct result of organ ized effort of our business men the granolith pavements, the Alfrey Duff 6 Hetzler) plant, the Piney Drainage Canal, the sewerage system, the new Union Station. the several brick freight stations, etc, are the direct re- suit of the Business Mems Or ganizations.
 It takes organized team work to build a city.
 With an organization with every merchant, doctor, clerk, carpenter. teacher, preacher. lawyer, mechanic. banker. etc, all lined up together we can make Brinkley come into her own RIGHT NOW.
 Let's do 1t. Let's put asi de every side issue and petty per sonal feeling and all join hands in another long. strong pull for a bigger, better, brighter Brink
