HANSEN NOTES


We are sorry to hear that there will
be no graduation exercises in Hansen
this year owing to objections offered
by the school board. Miss Davenport
worked diligently with the class, so
as to be able to give the community
good entertainment and she is very
sorry to have to give it up. Mr. Hens
ley who had charge of the school this
year has been re-engaged for the COM
ing year, all other teachers who
taught here this year are going to
leave. We dislike very much to lose
them as they have done good work.
Mr.. Pettygrove has resigned his con-
nection with the school board
Probably the largest shipment Of
binder Irvine ever received in this
town was received by Ora McVey this
week. He purchased car of $4,000
pounds.
Among those registered at the Ov-
erland Inn this week are l. G. Gal
lup, Omaha; J. B. Decker, Salt Lake; ;
Geo. l.. Dreuhl, Salt Lake; E. F. Nal.
an, Ogden; Arthur Badge, Bear Lake; ;
VIM. Baker. Twin Falls; j. c. Moore,
Twin Falls; Herbert Keith, Hansen.
Mr.. and Mrs. Noble were surprised
by number of friends last Saturday
evening. All present report pleas
ant evening.
Miss Elva Fox, of Tacoma, who is
visiting her sister, Mrs. S. M. Burk-
halter spent the weekend at Burley
with friends. On her return home
Sunday, she was accompanied by Miss
Grace Johnson, of Burley. They were
entertained at six O'Clock dinner Sun
day evening by Mrs. Burkhalter
Among the visitors to Twin Falls
Monday were Miss Claggett and Joe
Frohlich.
Hansen was in state Of excitement
Sunday evening and the cause for the
excitement was a large column OF
smoke that was issuing from the base
ment of H. S. Beals' general store
The smoke attracted the attention OF
a passerby, who gave the alarm to
the telephone Office and in short
time bucket brigade was formed and
the blaze was located and extinguished
before much serious damage was done
The damage amounted to about $3.50
1t is believed the fire started in q
case of matches.
Murtaugh sent their baseball team
to Hansen last week to try it round
or two with the boys here in spite
of the rain wind and mud Some OF
the Murtaugh boys were laid up and
consequently they were greatly han
dicapped. The Hansen Kids walked
away with the game to the tune of Ia
to 3. The game was called in the
9Th inning on account of rain. Filler
will play here next Sunday at 10:
a. m. Everybody come.

which he honestly acquired l,OOO,-
oGG, he has been devoting himself
to helping worthy causes and living
a life of brotherly service.)
l had come to Dubuque, Iowa,
with but one purpose, or rather with
but one man in mind, man who
had given thousands Of dollars to
various institutions. 1t was my job
to "land" him for the institution for
which | was then "schnorring." 1t
does not seem possible that ne
should make his home in the big,
rambling, ugly frame cottage on
whose porch | paced up and down
for an impatient IS minutes. And
now there ambled up on the porch
venerable dog wagging his tail in
friendliest fashion as if to say, as
he retraced his footsteps down the
side path: IF you are looking for
my master, follow me-
| followed my venerable guide.
The side door now stood slightly
ajar and through it | stumbled =
into the Kitchen And there in the
dark, bending over the gas stove,
whose blue flame lighted up his as
celtic features most cheerily, stood
Abraham Simmer, the man who
gives away $4,000 a year-all he
earns-brewing himself some tea.
fumbled my mission, | was more
interested in the man and his sur-
roundings. | was busy making an
appraisal of him. Why did he wear
that suit of clothes, neat to be sure,
but new more than five years ago?
Why did he wear that cowboy Stet
son (the one he never takes off even
in the house)? Why did he live in
that house? Why didn't he have a
telephone, electric light? Why was
his writing table covered with green
balze? Why was the furniture so
old, SO cheap? Surely that artisan
who lived in the next house would
have been ashamed to dress that
way, to live that way. I looked
around the room, and then | looked
at the man, looked at features un-
lined, unruffled, radiating quiet
strength, into eyes calm, sane,
strong, gentle, the bluest, kindliest
eyes I have ever looked into, at a
frame tall, straight, sturdy like
hardy sycamore, at face tanned
by sun and prairie wind, at hands
big, hard, Drowned by contact with
the soil.

arose, formed out of several more or
less independent Christian counties,
that of Aragon. 1t grew in power
as rapidly as its neighbor largely
at the expense Of the Moslem prin-
cipalities of that region. By the mid
die of the eleventh century the two
Christian states of CASTLE and
Aragon had become dominant fac
tors in the history of the peninsula.
In their struggles with their Muham-
medan neighbor, "The Cid' Ruy
Diaz Campeador became their most
distinguished champion. By their
disunion and continuous conflicts
among themselves the Arabs, it
seems, had lost all power Of resis-
lance.
Pushing his conquests southwark,
Alfonso VI of CASTLE finally made
himself master of Toledo, one Of the
principal centers of Moslem culture
which henceforth became the capital
of the powerful Christian state. To-
gether with the King of Aragon he
attacked the smaller Christian king
dom of Navarro, dividing it between
themselves, while the two succeed
ing kings of Aragon carried on
successful war against the Emir
of Saragossa, resulting in the con-
quest of that important Muham-
medan center, and its establishment
as the new capital of the Kingdom
of Aragon. Such was the political
situation in the Iberian peninsula
about the beginning of the twelfth
century.
Alfonso vi of CASTLE was the
towering personality in this new
period of our history. He was an
able warrior and sagacious ruler.
His ambition to expand by appropri-
ating more and more of the domains
of his Moslem neighbors, he sought
to realize by clever diplomacy even
more than by the sword. For that
purpose he availed himself of the
services of that element of the pop
u,ation of his kingdom that the Mos
lem princes had used to equally good
advantage-the Jews. One diplo-
matist of unusual talent employed
by him was Amram ben Isaac Ibn
Shalbib, originally his court physi-
clan. Being master of the Arabic
language, and familiar with the po-
litical affairs and conditions of the
peninsula he was made Alfonso's
private secretary, who entrusted
him with important matters of state.
Another Jew, Cidellus, was his po
1itical adviser and confidant. So

The way he said it, as though you
had said "Here's yesterdays paper,

tonishing feature of this amazing
statement.
"But-but, if you earn SO much,
why do you live this way?'

THE CROP OUTLOOK.

The farmers of this state have
done coed work this year. They
did not get large returns from
their crops Of last year and the
supply merchants did not relish
large accounts this year; in truth
n many places they could not
ret the credis themselves. ~.
the farmers began 10 use rigid
economy this ysaS and they be-
gan 70 work As never before
Good results Kill crown their e.

days have been disastrous %

To the People
Of Mississippi.


July IS. 1915.
No doubt you have heard that
your Capital City voted a SO. eco
bond issue to take over and
maintain the Mississippi State
Fair Every naa. woman and
child who resides here wants ycu
10 feel that this IS your Capital

In advocating City ownership
Of the Mississippi State Fair an
argument used by myself as
Mayor Of the Capital City in be-
hall Of the bond Issue was this.
That thousands OK dollars we're
spent each year in educating tn
boys az the A. i NJ College;
thousands Of dollars we're spent
each year in educating he girls
at |. I. & c hundreds Of thousands
are spent all over the State Of
Mississippi in educating the boys
aud girls. and I consider this a
SIX days normal to educate the

history Of the world when 50

States Senate. He was not the
choice Of the people and those
Who elected him knew IL But
those who we're behind him were
that class OF men who we're the
relics Of the cid Convention sys-
TEN in this state. These men
had run things for years: they
dsspised and had no respect for
the rights OF the average man I.
they showed that IN the caucus.
But the people awOks IN 1911;
they took the government into
their own hands; they made the
primary election Law amount 70
