while we are not gwen to footing our
own horn" yet, in this instance we
feel that we are justified in saying
that this job is one of the neatest eve
turned out in this section Of the South
west and is a credit to the Beaver High
school as well as to our shop.
The book contains one hundred and
twenty-four pages and is printed on an
excellent quality Of best grade book
paper and bound in a heavy twu-tCne
Art cover, tied with a silk cord Of
Orange and Black, the High School
colors. 1t contains nearly n hun
dred minety-seven, to be accurate)
illustrations comprising pictures of the
grounds and buildings, faculty, board
Of education, scenes on the athletic
field, clubs and societies, cartoons,
class pictures etc and is well gotten
up and a very creditsble edition in
deed rejecting much credit upon the
staff and faculty to whose efforts and
energy its publication was made posi-
BILE.
We put in six full weeks in the pub
LEGATION of this book but when it was
finished we felt that we were we'll re-
paid for the special attention we gave
the job. We might have gotten it out.
IN u way, in a much shorter time but
It has never been our custom to slight
a job because we might in order to add
10 our profit and, in publishing this
Annual we took especial pride because
we feel that il was Il most worthy cause
and that the appearance of the publ
cation should in no wise fall below the
high standard OF u excellent schools
but combine with the reputation al
ready established 10y Beaver schools to
show the people of the county and state

of 4 number Of the popular candidates
for county office as well as the adver-
tisements OF many of the enterprising
huainess cameras nj neovpr and otbAr

DON'T FAIL TO VOTE.

The primary election for selecting
candidates for the various township,
county and state offices will occur next
Tuesday, August 4th, and it lie the duty
Of every qualified voter TO be at the
polls hat day to cast his ballot for the
candidate OF his choice. It is rue that
this primary election at a time
when the farmers are all busy and
every day at home in the fields count.
but nevertheless the voter owes a duty
to his county and state TO see that
clean. honest. honorable men are SCI
lected to make the race for election
aud above the duty that ne owes to
himself and to his family in caring for
the home and farm, he owes a greater
duty to them and 10 the government in
exercising his right of franchise and all
power in his mean to see that the
right kind Of men are selected to fiji
our offices and that our interests az a
state and county, which In urn be-
comes a personal interest as well are
rightly guarded.
There is one thing for certain and
that il that the fellow who has an AK
to grind for himself or friends, will be
On hand and 1.-The bunch" will be there
but the honest, conscientious voter
who believes in the right kind of gov.
eminent and who is always found cast
ing his ballot for THE Nj n too often
stays aud thereby the deserving a m
didate is defeated and the scalawag
and CRATER with his following is boost
I'd into office to pilfer and rob the hon
est taxpayers and pile up burdens OF
taxes upon them which keeps their
nose to The grindstone all the time.
But, who have they got to blame but
themselves? We say to the voters, 60
TO the polls August 4th and express
your preference Of candidates and see
TO il that the best man in the race in
every instance is successful. II you
do this you will have no 'holler" of
steal" and graft" coming in the fu-
ture, but il you stay away and let the
other fellows who haven't the high
deals OF clean government that you
nave, select the candidates, and they'll
ne on hand, remember that, don't
olame any body but yourself. Again
we say, don't fail to vote, August 4th.

ANOTHER FINE RAIN.

This section was visited with another
mighty fine rain Sunday night. The
rain was local however and seemed to
fall in strips of only a few miles wide.
A heavy rain fell in Beaver and to the
southwest but the rain did not extend
far north or south. In the vicinity OF
Six Mile quite a heavy hail storm ac-
companied the rain but no serious
damage was done to crops The heavy
rain delayed wheat threshing for a few
days.

PASTOR OF CHRISTIAN CHURCH RE.
SIGNS.

Rev. j.. l.. Shaw. pastor of the
Christian church and who has served
this church for the past three years,
rendered his resignation this week and
expects to leave in thirty days for Ra-
ton, New Mexico, where he will take
up similar work in the Christian
church at that place. The change is
made necessary by the i'll health of
Rev. Shaw's parents, who live at Rat n
and who are anxious that their son be
near them. The news of his resigna-
ton will be received by the people OF
Beaver with genuine regret for Rev.
Shaw and wife are held in the highest
esteem by all who know them and his
work with the church here has been
most satisfactory Not only in church
circles but wherever you found him,
Rev. Shaw has been found to be an
ardent and ~tireless worker and wheth.
erit came to promoting railroads, blow
ing the big tuba in the Beaver band n
what not, he was always found on the
job and boosting for all that was in
him They will be sadly missed in
deed. The change is not made either
at the volition of Rev. Shaw or his
congregation but because he feels that
there is work to be done in the new
field and that duty to mother comes
first. Under such circumstances the
church gives him up willingly though
with lasting regret and bids HIM God
speed Should the time come when
he feels that he can return the latch
string will eve be out and a hearty
welcome awaiting them.

FINE SPECIMEN OF SUDAN GRASS.

b. G. skinner, OF Kokomo, was ex-
hibiting a fine sample Of Sudan grass
on the streets Of Beaver Saturday.
The grass was produced on the Char
boneau farm which was formerly the

creek and on which Mr.. Skinner is q
tenant. The sample which Mr.. Skim
ner was exhibiting was produced from
two seed aud the growth was made in
just sixty days from planting There
we're perhaps fifty stalks in the bunch
and it was fully six feet high. Mr..
skinner thinks that Sudan is the grass
for hay and he will try it on a more ex-
tepsive scale another season.
