Departed

Glen Z. Thayer, who had been
employed at the XI Ranch, south
of Plains, for the past six weeks,
was accidentally killed last FRI
day. With two other employees
he was hauling coal from Plains
to the ranch. The three wagons
were loaded and two left town.
Thayer was expecting ship.
ment of liquor, five quarts, and
went from the coal yards to the
depot to get it. Enroute home
it is evident that he sampled"
the contents OF his package, for
when found, some was missing.
1t is supposed that he became
intoxicated and fell from the
wagon. Parties IN an automo-
bile going toward the ranch dis
covered the body just as the
breath was leaving it. The team
was found a few miles farther
down the road, so the body must
have been found very shortly af-
ter the accident happened.
Mr. Tbnver hod told Tho hove
at the ranch that his home was
in Dallas Texas, but an answer
to message sent there by
County Attorney F. S. Sullivan,
stated that be was not known in
Dallas.
The funeral was held at Plains
Sunday and interment made in
the Plaina cemetery.

and unanimity his mantle was

forceful backing this leader will
make this our most successful

clded to appoint new committee
which will co operate with the
pastor in arranging open meet
ings of our society every two
months. These break the rou-
tine, lift out of the rut and should
have special timely subjects not
prescribed by the international
com mittee except for Thanks

speakers of good repute who are

community in the fifteen years l.

arranged and given way to such

We VIII Not Crawl

There is nothing in Governor
Capper's stand against national
preparedness which shows how
superficial his vlewis more than
his easy declaration that the ma.
tions of Europe ''have all they
want of war" Wars do not
wear themselves out. They are
concluded by conquest. In 1864
there was large and loud school
in the United States which tried
to beat Lincoln on the theory
that the war was failure, that
the nation was weary of war.
The people we're not mlsled.
Their answer was the reelection
of Lincoln and Appomattox.
The trouble with Governor Cap.
per is that he is assuming that
things in the world are as he
wants them to be, not as they
are actually. He talks easily of
the need of material improve
ments, and shuts his eyes to the
one big fact in the world which
is that the larger part of the civ
ilized world has put aside thought
of material advancement, and is
engaged in the much more alb
sorbIng game of armed conquest.
The conqueror, in the flush of
triumph, isn't weary OF war he
isn't tender in his observance of
order and law; be is rather IN
clined to consider his freebootlng
whim as law; and be is very apt
to be impatient with the sleepy
guardians of rich store houses.
These two continents in the
western hemisphere are the rich
est store houses in the world.
Under the Monroe Doctrine the
United States is the self-appoint-
ed sentinel over the hemisphere.
Every thinking man knows that
the Monroe Doctrine, immediate
1y the war is ended, is to be I'M
mediately at issue. We can get
ready to defea1d itand ourselves.
Or we can crawl. The people
of the United States are not GO
ing to crawl. They are going to
get ready.-Wichita Eagle, No
VEN Der 3rd.

Methodist

The big sale was held on last
Saturday and it was a decided
success in every way. The re-
ceipts was far above what any
one thought they, would be. We
are taking this means of thank
ing all who donated and also
those who were there to buy. If
the ladies' of the church continue
to have such success it will not
be long until they will be able to
build church themselves, but
we are not going to allow them
to do this big thing for when
there is big thing to be done
we want the community to have
a part in it.
While we are thanking those
who made the sale success, we
must not forget Stamper who
worked hard to make ita success
and of course 1t was due to his
efforts that it was as much a
success financially as it was.
We also want 10 thank MISS
Wehrle for the donation OF the
advertising of the sale.
We hope that our people will
remem ber all those who donated
and also those who came to buy
and when you want something
in their line remember them and
help them as they helped US.
The service on Sunday was
we'll attended, the Sunday School
attendance was quite good ad-
vance over the year before and
an increase over the Sunday be-
fore.
Mrs. Hamilton delighted our
audience again with fine solo
which was appreciated by all
present as she always pleases,
and responds when called upon
if iti possible to do so.
There will be preaching at
Artesian on next Sunday after
noon.

are made welcome. Come and

Twister at Great Bend

Wednesday evening, Novem-
ber II, at abou. 7:30 a tornado
struck Great Bend and complete
ly demolished everything in it's
path. AS near as can be learned
the Santa Fe Depot, the light
plant, water tower, public school
building, and a mum Der of homes
were wrecked. 1t is supposed
that no less than a dozen per-
sons were killed in III storm and
more than a score are injured.
The exact extent of the dam
age cannot be determined, due
to the fact that wire communi-
cations are demoralized.

The Bucklin and Meade High
School foot ball teams played
here last Friday afternoon to
the score of 81 to II in Meade's
favor. The Meade boys haye
been playing for a number of
years and no one expected the
home boys to win, but were
agreeably surprised at the way
they held their own. 1t is said
on good authority that this is
the first time the Meade team
has been scored against this year
and but for the fact that Meade
had one player who was won
der, there woni5 5not have been
as much difference as there was.

Roads

Many good roads have been
greatly damaged by small rut
being allowed to go unrepaired.
A wagon may have cut deeper
than usual and then water has
followed this until a great gutter
has been washed out, that a
shovelful of earth at the right
time might have stopped.
1t may be said that to prevent
such damage would require
daily patrol of the roads; but one
thing has been puzzle to me
for long time. That is this:
Someone lives On all our roads,
nearly everyone is interested in
seeing them maintained in good
condition, and yet, why is it that
these same people will see
small rut start and grow larger
and deeper with every rain, and
instead OF taking a shovel and
five minutes of time and repair
ing it, will wait until great dam
age is done and the complain
that the Supervisors or County
Commissioners or State High
way Commissioners are not do
ing their duty?
Until the time comes when
there is esta blished daily pa
trol or d maintenance man with
his SIX or ten mile section for
which he is responsible, as are
section men on the railroads,
every man who uses the roads
or lives along them should con-
stitute himself a mittee of
one to watch things in his own
immediate vicinity; he should
make these minor repairs when
first needed, or in case OF in
ability to do so, at least report
them to the proper authorities.
The great difficulty seems to
be the inclination to condemn
the authorities and system ratb-
er than to assist them in carry
ing out the program OF mainten-
ance. When the walls of Jer-
uselem were rebuilt, every man
repaired the part that was over
against his own bouse, and the
whole wall was soon strong and
solid. We need the cooperation
Of every taxpayer and property
holder along our roads, and
while mistakes will occur In adj
mInistration, it seldom makes
conditions better simply to COM
plain and condemn and not do
anything in practical way to.
ward remedying the trouble.
Another thing that causes
trouble is the refusal of proper
ty owners TO allow culverts or
side drains to be enptied on
their property. Sometimes
water is carried along the road
side much further than it should
be, causing very deep bitches to
be washed out and banks to cave
in. Where il is absolutely nee
essary to carry the water for
any considerable distance the
side ditch should be paved either
with concrete or stone. The
whole matter of maintenance, to
be most economical, rests IN
having small repairs made when
the damage first start.

Road Engineer of Fayett, Coun-
ty Pennsylvania.
