Al Robinson Appointed.

Last Saturday morning, January 1,
1916, A. o. Robinson received a COM
mission from Gov. Capper appointing
him as sheriff of Ellis County TO I'll the
vacancy caused by the vacation of the
office by Mr.. Chas. Davis.
1t viii be remembered that on the
night of October 9th, Sheriff Davis
boarded the train here at Hays, osten-
-sibly to go to Topeka, and he also stated
that he might visit Kansas City before
returning. He has not been seen or
heard from since that night. Consider
able speculation has been indulged in
by the citizens of Ellis county as to his
whereabouts. Some have suggested
that as he was an Englishman, he
might have joined the English army
and was fighting IN the trenches; others
think that he may have been slugged
and thrown into the Missouri river by
some of the thugs that infest all large
towns like Kansas City
Inasmuch as Mr.. Robinson had the
next largest vote for sheriff at the last
election, he was the logical candidate
for the office and should have been ap-
pointed as soon as it became evident
by Mr. Davis long absenc. that the
office was vacant; but of course, there
was more or less jockeying by the
politicians of the county. -
Several of the politicians and prom
inent citizens of the county VINO are
Mr.. Robinson's friends, went to Topeka
and talked to the governor in his favor,
besides a petition signed by the major
ity of the citizens of Hays and sur
rounding country, and letters galore
went to the governor in favor of MIR.
Robinson, but there was nothing doing.
The kinks had not ali been ironed out
yet.
At last Hon. John Chittenden, Elliz
county representative, becoming tired
of the delay and wanting this much
taikedaof muddle settled, took the mat
ter in hand and Thursday evening start
ed for Topeka, and by noon on Friday
had secured the commission for Mr..
Robinson signed by the governor, and
presented it to Mr.. Robinson Saturday
as stated above.
The appointment of Mr.. Robinson Is
entirely satisfactory to the republicans
of Ellis county and it also pleases tbs
majority of the democrats. The Free
Press congratulates ydu, A. o. We
know you can and viii make good.

HOME ECONOMICS
DEPARTMENT.
A Number Of Schools are Visited and
Girls Canning Clubs Organized.
Much Interest Manifested.

At last thru the efforts of the Wo-
mems Federated Clubs of Grenada and
of the leading men of the county, the
Home Demonstration Work has come
into the county too. Canning clubs are
springing up just like tomato plants
will soon be springing up.
Last Friday at MistertOn there was a
community gathering. The Co. Supt.
of Education, the Farm Demonstration,
and the Home Demonstration attended
the meeting. Mr.. Fisher presented the
subject, Improvement of the Soil"
to the men and Miss Hughes interested
the girls and women in CLUB organi cation
for the improvement of the home.
Quite a large club was organized at
this place.
On Tuesday last the Big Creek school
was visited. Here also a good canning
club was organized. Some of the mem
bers in this club have tomato plants
about three inches high. Other COM
munities please take notice of this fact.
Then on Wednesday the work went
to Elliott and found at the train when
when it arrived six eager faces and
twelve eager hands. These six banded
themselves together and elected their
officers. After this business the child
rem learned several new games to play
at recess.
Then on Thursday there was a meet
ing at Holcomb. The people there
were right in for this work, proving
that Holcomb is a progressive town
and she intends coming out in the lead.
Not only was a fine girls club organ
lied, but there was also a splendid rep
resentation Of the housewives and bust
uess men of the city, who chose as the
subject to be discussed, Home Con-
veniences."
The Hillside school was the next Wis
tied and there, too, a good club was or
ganiZed and officers, a president, vice
president and secretary and treasurer,
were elected.
These clubs will be a source of in
struction and pleasure to the members,
and if the work is done right should be
of help financially. Every effort will
be made to help, where help is desired,
among the women of this county.
Any community who wants to begin
this work may do so by writing to Miss
Annabell Hughes, Grer ada, Miss. Miss
Hughes will be glad to come to your
community and discuss with you the
club work. III"

painful. If l stopped over to sweep, a
catch took me and it was hard for me
to straighten. l was subject to sick
headaches and dizzy spells came over
me. ! doctOred and tried various med
i%cines, but never found such relief as

A Plan of MARKETING.

The question of markets is now the
most interesting one engaging public
attention. Production ia of small i'm
p~Ortance unless it is accompanied by
proper provision for profitable sale Of
products of the farm. To be accurate,
prolific production is disastrous unless
proper provision is made for selling.
In such case the greater production the
greater the disaster. The greater the
number of buyers the producer is in
touch with the greater the profit of the
producer. The MYERS of this is the
greater the volume of products the
buyer is enabled to deal in, the greater
his profit. All have felt the need of
better markets ever since the invasion
by the boil weevil. Farmers have cast
about for means of profit but when con-
sidering new adventures in agriculture
they have been met by the question
where will we find a market for these,
to US, new crops? 1t is a question
which has prevented much intelligent
advance in farming. The Postal Ex-
change Company, of Jackson, Missis-
sippi, has four representatives here
presenting a: plan of markets which is
claimed to solve the question. The
officers and directors of this company
are LldIy Vi Iueu we'll kHOWn 10 our
people. J. S. Watson, of Drew. is pre-
sident; Jno. l.. Smith, well known a.
mOng other things from his connection
with the state banking law, is vice
president and general manager, and
Hillrie M. Quin, a name honored and
beloved by all Mississippians, is secre-
tary and treasurer. Among the direc-
tors is j. M. Clover, of Ruleville.
Such an array of names at once inspires
confidence in the integrity of the COM
pany and the wisdom of their plan. AS
presented, the plan offers a simple but
efficient solution of the questions which
have vexed many in connection with
markets and it is very likely that our
people will consider and encourage this
enterprise and the establishment here
of the Postal Exchange. Lexington
