Two Paths

A path across meadow, fair and sweet,
Where clover-bloOms the lightsome
grasses greet,
A path worn smooth by his impetuous
feet.
\ straight, swift path-and at its end a
star
Cleaning behind the lilacs' fragrant bar
And her soft eyes moro luminous by far!
A path across the meadow fair and sweet.
Stlll sweet and fair where blooms and
grasses meet
A path worn smooth by his reluctant feet.
A long, straight path-and at Its end a
gate,
Behind whose bars she doth in silence
wait,
To keep the tryst, If he come. soon or
late!

Hubbies Acclaim Their Charms.

An acclamation ballot taken al
luncheon at the Gail on Tuesday re-
vealed the conceit of some of the
city's worthy citizens. D. P. Patter-
son, Frank j. Coad, Glen O. Holman,
A. V. R. Snyder and 7. J. Cherring-
ton, all of whom, except the latter, are
hotel guests during the absence of
their respective wives, voted a resolu-
ton that ladies who would forsake
such an intellectual and handsome
group of men were at least negligent,
and that, if the ladies could realize
the charms of the voters, they would
hurry back from their several outing
places. The vote was unanimous not
only with the voters, but with many
other guests to whom the question was
submitted for approval.

Keokuk has always played promi-

Twenty years ago Jim Huiskamp took
the bookkeeping course (and played
some baseball by way of recreation).
Every year this school has had it's
full quota of students from the Gate
City.
Three years ago Gem City placed
Hugh Askey in a responsible place
with the Mississippi River Power COM

cate in Keokuk was genuine slim
illus to the community and this paper
made the statement at the time that
the decision of the company to locate
here, due to the ability to secure
cheap electric power, would have the
same effect on other industries. Since
that time the Keokuk Electro Metals
Co., a 100000 concern, has located in
the city. Other industries are nego-
tiating and the expectation that Keo-
kuk will become the industrial center
of the Mississippi valley is not at all
improbable The recent rapid develop
ment points to a realization of such
expectations.
The initial size of the plant will
be 1000 horse power and the power
contract which this company has
made with the Mississippi River Pow
er company calls for an eventual de-
velopment of 10000 horse power. The
contract runs for fifty years. The
first unit will cost approximately
s250,000 and when the plant is COM
plete it is expected the investment
will reach two and quarter million
dollars This amount will give an
idea as to the extensiveness Of the
industry.
The plant will be located on a site
