SHE HAD MAYNARD DAUGHTER
Neighbor Was Surprised When She
Found Cause of Severe Rebuke
Administered by Mother.

A lady living in large apartment
house relates the following:
81 had occasion one day to visit the
apartment of q neighbor. Such grave
and earnest tones of remonstrance
reached my ears, as 1 approached my
friends room, that l hesitated about
Intruding. I found her winsome young
daughter with her, and the mother had
evidently been rebuking her, for the
girls face was flushed, and there were
tears In her eyes.
"COme in" said my friend. 81 have
finished what was saying to Jenny,
and I hope she will remember my
wishes"
"Ah, these children - these clliE
dren !" thought to myself.
81 have just been telling her." CON
tinued my friend, that she must not
wear her evening gloves when she goes
shopping in the morning. In the first
place, it is not genteel and in the
second place, 1t Is extravagant."
Her evening gloves And yet, as
sure you, her tone and expression. and
the impression made on the child,
would have befitted serious wrong
doing-one that had issues in time
and eternity.

KANSAS FARMERS NEED AID
Wichita Grain Dealers Urge Food Con.
troll Committee to Look After
Rural interests.

Wichita grain dealers have started
a movement that will likely create
something of stir in Official Wash
liDgton. They are calling attention to
the need of the food control commit
tee to look after the interests of the
| farmer if they expect the farmer to
sow an added acreage of wheat. A
letter has been sent to every elevator
man in Kansas and Oklahoma request
ing him to get in touch with the farm
ers and ask them to urge senators and
congressman to look after their in
terests.
This action on the part of the men,
bers of the board Of trade was prompt
ed partly by the receipt of a letter by
S. p. Wallingford, president of the
board, from Dr. e. Wilson of Alva
Ok, saying that it is matter of busi-
ness and existence as we'll as patriot
ism with the farmers. He says that
he has decided to SOW only half as
last year, because of the high cost of
production and the good prices which
other crops are bringing.
Mr.. Wallingford called a special
meeting Of the board of trade which
not only decided on the above action,
but appointed a committee to 20 to
Kansas City and meet the food con-
troll committee of the Southwest and
urge upon them the need to protect
the interest of the farmers so that the
wheat acreage can be maintained.
The committee consists of l.. II.
Powell, Charles Smith, Clark Burdg,
w. f. Mccullough and Edward Kelly.
