Uses many revelations in the art of
reproducing scenes Of fairy revelry By
night; the charm of Pacific sunsets,

to the tropics for settings in which
to frame the story Of "Undine."
And the fairy tale, originally meant
as a contribution to childish flights
of fancy, offers no end Of opportun-
ity for sensational scenes, spectacu-
lar effects and attractively colorful
scenes Of general appeal. Me grown
up will be well entertained, and the
little folks have in store for them one
of the greatest treats imaginable
when the story OF "Undine' Is un-

Jasper Blines Has Plan for Museum
of History to Be GiUen to kahoka


Mr.. Blines is receiving a great deal
of encouragement In his work of pro-
noting historical association and
succeed in giving to the county an in
stitution that will be of great value
to 1t In the beginning, and that will
grow in interest and value from year
to year.
At the present time, Mr.. Blines Is
making his headquarters at Kahoka,
the county seat of Clark, county, and
it is here that the museum will be
located. Mr.. Blines has the endorse
ment and the financial backing Of
many Of the best citizens of the coun-
ty, all Of whom comprehend the
value of his labors in past years, as
well as the greater value he will be
able to give to the public in the fu-
ture by reason of the proper organi
cation and assistance. The Daugh-
ters of the American Revolution in
Clark county have given their en-
dorsement to Mr.. Blines' plan for a
historical society and permanent mu-
scum and are now doing effective
work in assisting to organize the
forces that will enable him to bring
about the contamination of his hopes.
1t is intended in the near future to
erect a suitable building in Kahoka as
a permanent historical home, with
Mr.. Blfnes in charge. In this museum
will be installed the large and valu-
able collection mentioned above as
having been gathered during the past
half century by Mr.. Blines. Mr.. c. P.
Fore, banker at Wayland, Mo-. will
give his collection, which is next to
that of Mr.. Blines' in point of interest
and size in the county. Another
large and valuable collection was
gathered by the late James H. Gore.
typical country gentleman, who
lived for many years near Wayland,
and will also be given. Kahoka has
good public library, but it is without
suitable quarters, and it is considered
quite likely that this library will be
added to the new museums treasures.
Many other citizens of Clark county
have smaller collections that have
been freely rendered, SO that in the
aggregate the Clark County Histori-
cal association will be able to make
showing that will be a source of COM
munity pride, and that will grow and
increase rapidly from year to year.
In Prime Of Life.
At this time Jasper Blines Is a
man in the prime of life, apparently
with the years of his best perform
ance still before him. Clark county
is proud to possess citizen who is
animated by such altruistic and dis
interested motives, and for many
years past has regarded his labors
with appreciation and friendly ap-
proval. He is respected, beloved and
taken at his real worth by the entire
population.
While visiting with us, Mr.. Blines
outlined many features Of his plan
which have been fully thought out.
Other features are under considera-
ton and not fully developed. By rea-
son of his wide reading, and extensive
with scholars and di-
rectors all over the country, and some
travel, Mr.. Blines has developed into
a museum collector and director OF
the first class and is mentally
equipped to do now for his home
county a work for which few men
are better fitted.

& of Seven Pines VIII
race His Records and
Relics in This Build
ing When Secured.

Burlington Saturday Evening Post:
the editor of The Post had as a
guest at his home on Prospect Hill
during the week, gentleman of con-
siderable celebrity in the middle
west The name Of this we'll known
antiquarian, collector and historian is
Jasper Blines, and his place OF resi-
dence for thu, past fifty years has
been on farm bordering on the Des
Molnes river, in clark county, Mo-,
near the quaint old hamlet Of Alex
andria. We have been intimately as
ISOLATED with Mr.. Blines, personally
and through correspondence for the
last forty years, and have observed
during that period that he has been
tIreless and enthusiastic in the pur-
suit Of knowledge. During the same
period he has been a voluminous writ
er for newspapers and magazines,
and in this way has given to the pub
Tic the knowledge acquired through
his earnest and diligent researches,
On his farm out on the Alexandria
bottom, Mr.. Blines has lived inter
est1ngly and intellectually, and his
daily work resembles in many of it's
essentials the tranquil life lived by
the great essayist, Henry D. Thoreau
In his cottage on the bank of Walden
pond. Thoreau wrote many interest
ing books, and basked in the literary
atmosphere of New England. Had he
lived a generation later, and in the
middle west, he would have had to
print his beautiful and sensible
thoughts and reflections in the news
papers, as Mr.. Blines has done-be-
cause the newspaper and not the book
or the magazine, is the great public
forum of the present day.
Has Fine Collection.
Mr.. Blines has been an Industrious
collector of books, newspaper clip
pings, curious and old records for
half century, and persons who have
seen and examined his collection pro-
nounce it one of great value and in
terest, and well worthy of permanent
preservation in some public institu-
ton. Mr.. Blines collection outgrew
the quarters he was able to provide
for it several years ago, and the
necessity for some change suggested
itself. Mr.. Blines thereupon deter
mined to organize an historical So
ciety in Clark county, and to organ
ize and lead the intellectual forces of
the community to the enterprise OF
acquiring suitable site and con-
structing a permanent home for the
historic records and relics of the
county. BY reason of it's geographic
cal location, and the further fact that
the county was settled originally ana
almost exclusively by families from
Kentucky and Virginia, the history OF
the county up to the present time is
af exceptional interest Mr.. dimes
parents were from the latter state
For generation after generation all
of these old families have kept up
their old-time social Intercourse, and
the social and neighborly bond among
the people Of the county is very
strong.

Farming as a Business.

Ceuar Raplds Repub11can: Lie on
farm is not all dreaming, il it is
dreaming at all. But it has it's re-
wards, its compensations its great
satisfactions. To SOW and to reap, to
plant and to harvest, to see things
growing, all these have their own
pleasures, as every man who has liv-
ed on a farm knows. And there is
financial independence also that can
be reached. il one goes about farming
in the right way-that is, applies to
it business sense as well as hard
labor.
