Might Work Here

The merchants at Winona are con-
sidering a plan of joint delivery of
groceries, meats, etc. The object is to
have one delivery service and thus cut
the expense of maintaining individual
deliveries. The plan has been tried
in many other towns and wherever
adopted it has proven satisfactory. 1t
could be worked out nicely in Morris.

It Isn't Fair.

People who expect to buy Chau-
tauqua tickets for less than cost
are going to be fooled, for those
who subscribed for tickets last
year for this yerr's Chautauqua
have a tacit understanding that
they will not cut the price.
Again, there is a lack of prin'
cipal or fairness in people asking
for tickets at less than cost.
Those who signed the contract
and signed pledges for tickets
are entitled to encouragement,
and should not be the victims Of
people who would enjoy the high
class entertainment which the
Chautauqua will provide.

Should Resign.

! The Board of Health should
resign. Members of the board
admit this.
Some of the alleys, with their
decorations, are a sight to not be
proud of, and the smell arising
from certain of the decorations
is something that would reach to
high heaven, were it not for the
strong winds.
The powers of the Board OF
Health are supreme. If the
Board desired to do so, it could
close every unsanitary place on
every alley in the town, and
what is more, it could prohibit
the rebuilding of such places.
Will the board do this? Well,
hardly, Will the board compel
these places to be cleaned up?
Well, that is problematical.
Judging the future by the past,
the board will not do anything
of the sort.
The Board of Hes lth, if it will
do its duty, will at once proceed
to condemn about forty or fifty
places in Baxter Springs, and
order them cleaned up, and If the
orders are not complied with,
they should order the arrest of
the notified persons, and prose.
cute them under the laws relat.
ing to menaces to health.
Will the board do these things?
We are afraid the board will con-
tiuue to be remiss in its duty. If
so, it should resign.
Another thing: If the board
desired to do so, it could compel
every property owner in the
town to cut weeds, and generally
clean up his premises.
The powers Of 4 board OF
health are practically unlimited.
But the Board of Health of Bax-
ter Springs does not seem to de"
sire to do its duty to the people,
nor to the powers that create it.
The board of health is com.
posed of Drs. Boswell, chairman,
and English and Wear. Gentle
men, do your duty, or resign.

Safely DepOsitBO

The Baxter State Bank has ad.
ded another big section OF safety
deposit boxes. These are some
of the best boxes we have ever
seen. They are the kind that it
takes two keys to open, and in
stead of being the kind that
could be taken out and carried
away, they are the kind that
have to be opened with two keys
before the contents can be re.
moved.
A safety deposit box is an
ideal place to keep private pa.
pers, such as notes, deeds, mort
cages, abstracts, insurance pol.
icies, and such things. Or they
make a good place to put ]ewelry,
when not in use.
The Baxter State Bank makes
a very low rate by the year for
the use of a box.

Two Brands
of Courtesy.

Occasionally some city daily
paper takes a wallup at country
people, picturing them as the
typical rubes of ancient days.
1t serves as a vent for the city
EDITORS surplus egotism, and
does US no harm.
But for the sake of friendly
comparison let us take a peep at
just one little phase of city life
courtesy to women.
A man from the country was
in large city recently and had
occasion to make a trip to the
suburbs about five o'clock in the
afternoon. The car was soon
crowded with people going home
from the days labors, and the
man from the country found him
self sitting opposite a gentle
man" of the city garbed in i'm
maculate attire and an express
sion of intellectual superiority.
A feeble old lady entered the
car, and, in the absence of a va
cant seat, was standing by the
side of the masculine repository
of superior intelligence.
The intellectual high brow OF
city breeding looked up, gave
her a cold stare, and calmly re-
sumed the reading of his paper.
The man from the country
as promptly gave her his seat.

popularity this branch was ordered
kept open after the close Of the ex-

education Of the people, and as filling
q mission. -
- One section Is devoted to prominent
ly displayed copies Of foreign papers
with absurd or deliberately false re-
ports concerning Germany. These re-
ports are heavily bordered, and beside
each Is a translation. German news
papers from cities occupied by the
Russians + also displayed, contain

prohibited the publication Of certain
articles.
A collection Of articles from the bat
