Miss Ada Flake were united in
marriage at Social hall by Bishop
Silas L. Fish. The ceremony
was witnessed by a large num-
Der relatives and friends of the

a young man who leans toward
athletics and has made some
worthy records on the field.

have big bunch of friends all
over this part of the county who
wish them a future life of hap
piness and prosperity.

Holbrook News had the board
cover a barrel" as it was the
only bid before the board, and
it's bid was 80 cents for the su-
pervisor's proceedings, and %
cents for the legal notices. The
supervisor wanted these fees
cut down to a reasonable amount,
and urged us to submit a bid.
The editor of the Mail was put

because he has seen fit to ex-

several occasions about public
officials, and the supervisors,
who are the stool-pigeons for
the gang that infests the court
house, had their instructions
what to do. And during the
reign of this gang there will be
no more bids offered for county
business at any figure, because
we do not have to truckle to
that kind of a crowd to make a
living in the newspaper game
in Winslow. There are plenty
of respectable business men in
this city who are giving us

PROF. EUGENE KNOX.

Wallace Eugene Knox was born on
farm near Gurnee, ILL.,, Nov. II, 1872.
He was anything but interested in the
art of public speaking when a scholar
in the little country schoolhouse where
he received his early educational train
ing, for he played hockey on the Fri
day afternoons when he was supposed
to take part in speaking pieces"
However, when he outgrew the grades
and was sent to the county seat, Wau-
kegan, ILL.,, to enter high school, It was
not SO easy to play hooky, and finally
he had to "face the music" at rhetori-
calls. His dormant talent was discov-
cred upon his first appearance before
the high school students, and he
more than surprised himself when he
brought down the house" with ne
him, and he was ever afterward more
than anxious to read.
During his high school days he was
prominent in the declamatory contests
and won first prize against strong op-
position. About this time DR.. Edward
Amherst OFT became pastor Of the
Christian church In Waukegan and
soon after was made dean Of the
school of oratory at Drake university.
Through him Mr.. Knox became ser1-
ously interested In expression a. a
chosen profession. He went to Des
Moines at the beginning Of the school
year and commenced his studies under
Professor OFT. He specialized In i'm
personation and finished his course
with honors.
For six years he Travelled as reader
with concert companies and quartets,
making for himself lasting reputa-
ton. He then left the platform and
began teaching expression. His first
work was done as dean Of oratory In
the University of Puget Sound, which
position he held for six years. How
ever, he did not give up public read
Ing, for he filled engagements at week
ends in vacation periods, travelling ex-
tensively over the west and in Canada.
He was called to the dictatorship Of
the school of oratory and expression
Of the Nebraskan Wesleyan university
in 1910, where he has been for the
past six years. The school under his
management has attained a position
among the very best In the middle

PIG CLUBS AND DEPOSITS.

The bankers in many states are realiz-
OF materially improving rural conditions,
according to club aeents of the U. s. de.
partment of agriculture. Not a few of
the bankers have made it possible for
worthy club members to secure pigs on
their personal notes. In this way we'll
bred pig is secured and the member can
pay for it from the proceeds of the pig as
a meat animal or from the sale of offsprine
in the case of breeding animal. The
member enters into business agreement
with the parents consent) with the
banker and is in this way relieved Of the
stigma OF charity which is the result
when q pig 10 given outright. This
arrangement is a practical means ofteach.
ing business methods to the rural youns
people. 1t is also q character building
process, for it is but natural for boy
when treated az man to act in manly
manner.
This apparent generosity on the part of
the bankers is in many cases business
acumen. A case in point is that Of
Texas bank. The president Of the bank
place 326 pigs among the pig club members
of his county. Al result Of the &C.
quaintance made in securing and placing
these pigs, many new patrons were sc.
cured. These patrons brought in over
SIS, 900 in individual deposits. Needless
to say, this was profitable business for
the bank, but it is also a means that will
increase with time in its beneficial in
fuence. One of the Texas papers states
that the banker ''has laid the foundation
for prosperity which will be lasting. The
boys that he has helped to get started in
the hog business are now ON their feet
financially, and before many years they
will be making big shipments Of hoes to
market each year. The money received
from the sale of hogs will be expended in
further developing the county. Every
merchant in the county will profit, the
banks will get more deposits, and the
farmers will have more money with which
to further develop their FARMS"

DR.. JOHN HARLAN ANDRESs
TO APPEAR At CHAUTAUQUA

Success and prominence are attained.
not because of exceptional opportuni-
ties afforded, but because of excep-
tional advantage taken of whatever op-
portunities may arise.
DR.. John Harlan Address, ChautaI-
qua lecturer, was born on a farm In
Iowa. He attended country schools
and learned the multiplication table
while riding on horseback behind his
father, who was the teacher.
While still attending the country
schools he was ambitious to acquire a
college education and be lecturer.
Soon after entering college he became
leader in debate and represented his
college in several -oratorical contests
with much success. During his senior
college year he was president of the
Interstate Oratorical Association. His
college attainments are small in com.
parison with the success he attained in
his real life's work. He has gone to
the top with each undertaking and is
now in great demand as a public
speaker.
His one hobby is fishing, and while
engaged in that favorite pastime in
the Big Horn Mountains he caught one
day 145 trout. He is equally skillful
In catching his audiences.
