eagerly and the serenity with which
they make sacrifices that seem over
whelming TO the self-centered, are a
rebuke 10 the worldly minded and an
inspiration TO the sorely-tried. Above
all, they help humanity by prayer.
To the materialist IL is inexplicable
that men and women OF talent and
energy should retire from the busy
world merely to pray. To him the
restless tides OF human hope and fear,
hate and love alone give life a zest.
But to the Christian the life OF prayer
is the highest. hottest and sweetest.
Nor is that all. II is also the most
beneficial 10 humanity, for IL brings
down 10 saint and singer a steady
shower Of divine blessings"

ture this evening will be Religion in

The Pleasant Gap Township Fair.

The First Annual Pleasant Gap
Township Fair which was held
Saturday, September 4th, was
one Of the most successful insti-
tutions Of its kind ever held in
the county.
The Fair, which as originated
and directed by the Pleasant Gap
Township Boosters Association,
was given the liberal support of
the entire southeastern part Of
the county and citizens Of that
section apparently combined to
show southeast Bates as one of
the most enterprising communi-
ties in the state.
Exhibits in all departments RI
vailed those ordinarily shown at
the county fair and the stock
show and corn exhibits were par
,ticularly attractive. A large
and well selected exhibit Of need
le-work and q toothsome array
OF culinary CONNECTIONS topped
off with q beautiful display Of
flowers made q handsome dis
play while the grain and garden
exhibits were extraordinarily
fine. The poultry display, while
SMALL was excellent.
The fair was held in the beauti-
full Henry grove south Of Pleas
ant Gap and with the inspiration
Of Pleasant Gap hospitality,
those attending turned the meet
ing into a big picnic, and 1T the
noon hour about thirty-iive hun
dred enjoyed basket dinners on
the beautiful blue grass lawn.
The attendance was estimated
at four thousand.

ADRIAN STREET FAIR.
Fine Exhibits, Big Crowds, DE
lightful Weather.

The ninth annual meeting Of
the Adrian Street Fair Associa
ton was held in that city Wed
nesday, Thursday and Friday
and all nature joined forces with
the exhibitors and promoters OF
the fair, to make the three days
meeting better, if possible, than
ever before.
Exhibits in all departments
were exceptionally fine, were
well arranged and most attract:
lively displayed. Nearly every
section of the county was repre-
scented in the displays.
The live stock exhibit was
large and stock was well shown,
some excellent animals being ex-
hibited. Great interest was talk
en- the poultry exhibit and some
fine birds were shown.
Grain Of all kinds was shown in
great profusion and all displays
in this department were very
good.
A large garden and horticul-
tural display was shown and at
tracted a great deal Of attention
One Of the features of this dis
play was the 'sblGe ribbon COM
bination" shown by j. E. Dow
ell, although Mr.. Dowea main
tains that some one put up a job
on him. His display, however,
conclusively demonstrates that
the average country editor must
rely on his friends for his garden
truck and fruit.
The pantry and store and art
exhibits were good and were well
handled,
One Of the features Of the fair
was the trades parade which was
held Thursday afternoon and
was participated in by about III
teen Of the leading business
houses Of the city. Every float
in the parade WAS clever in de-
sign and handsome in decoration.

The railroad yards are, filled
with stalled trains and TT. Scott
is experiencing the worst flood in
the history of the city and the
city is in tie direct center of the
twisting currents.
The water in Bell Town, sub
urb, rose nearly twenty feet with
the consequence that the lower
half of Fl. Scott is flooded and
other parts of the city are threat
ened. a..
All railroad bridges are loaded
with heavy cars to hold them in
place against the poundings of
the swift waters.
Five hundred people were ma
rooned in passenger coaches of
trains which fought their way to
this city and are now halted by
the high water. It is predicted
the Marmaton will rise an addi-
tional four feet while Mill Creek
is also expected to 60 higher.
The streams are carrying two
story houses and crushing them
against the bridges. The watch
man at the Missouri Pacific
bridge. reports that he saw the

WILL BECOME AN INSTITUTION.

The success of the Pleasant
Gap township fair last Saturday
will, in all probability, result in
township fairs becoming an in
stitution. At any rate it is to be
hoped that such will be the re-
suit. The benefits of such gath
erings are far reaching, mot alone
In improvement of live stock and
farm products, but in infusing in
to the people of a community the
public spiritedness and mutual
interest SO necessary to progress.
The people of southeastern
Bates county have always been
progressive and the community
spirit has always been marked.
Some years ago Hudson town.
ship folks conceived the idea of
aslocal organization, which is
now known as the Home Inn
provement Club, and so great
have been it's benefits that the
movement has spread over the
entire country and will always
be a monument to its far sighted
organizers.
Any movement which tends to
unite neighborhood interests
progressively and instills q desire
for mutual Improvement Is good,
and other communities would do
well to profit BY the example set.
