A large crowd of Trego county peo-

who answered the call for more men
and left for Camp Funston on the
1890 train.
Before the boys went to the depot
they were assembled at the court
house and on behalf of the Red Cross
and the ladies of this county were
presented with s'house wives" and
copies of the gospels. The copies of
the Gospels were presented by Mrs.
A. II. Blair and the sshouse wives"
by Mrs. A. J. Ellermeyer. In their
presentation talks to the boys the
ladies made very impressive and ap-
propriate remarks which they will
likely remember and appreciate as
long as they live.
At the depot the citizens mingled
with the boys and bade them good
bye and expressed the hope that some
of them would be able to get the

While H. R. Peek, living northwest
of this city few miles, has been de-
voting his time the last season to
raising corn and doing other farm
work, Mrs. Peek has devoted a part
of her time to raising tame sun
flowers. A sample of their products
is on exhibition at this Office. The
sun flowers measure foot in diam
.eter and are chuck full of seed which
will make fine feed for hens this win
ter. The corn is the nearest mature
of any we have seen and is good
quality.

FROM CAMP LEWIS

The following is an extract from a
letter by "Private Sam F. Peacock,
Supply Company 348 F. A., Camp
Lewis, Tacoma, Washington"
Well, at last I am stationed in
camp, and guess in fairly perman-
ent camp at that, so I'll write a few
lines, We got the big "shot in the
arm" today, so I may not be able to
write tomorrow. We had our last ex-
animation today and were vaccinated
three days ago and have been measur-
ed for our uniforms, but haven't re-
ceived them yet We had Sunday off
and went down to the town on the
railroad believe they call
it-and watched the crowds. Every
thing was a jam. Rockies by the
thousands and nearly as many more
from outside, it seemed, were parad-
ing up and down the street, some
afoot and some in autos, but none of
them that appeared to know where
they were going. It is Is miles to
Olympia and about 18 to Tacoma, and
Seattle also is within auto distance, -
so that accounts for the Sunday y
crowds. This is pretty country with
its great, high pines on the ridges
and it's level meadows between, and
Mt. sRainer in the distance, but this
everlasting moist weather and cool
breeze certainly gets my William
Goat. Practically all the men in this
regiment are from Nevada, Montana
and Wyoming, and used to a high
altitude, consequently we nearly all
have bad colds from this damp air.
My trunk and grip were lost in fire
just before leaving Hilltop (Nevada), /,
and lost all the letters had accunlu-
lated during the last fifteen years, be-
sides pictures, addresses, clothes and
all personal belongings.

A car load of water melons were
disposed of in Wa-Keeney Tuesday
which were shipped in from the sand
hills south of Abilene. They were
dandy melons and satisfied the crav-

Usually car load of water melons
would find slow sale in this county,
but this year and 1915 was against
them and the local production was
pretty small.

A Probate Judge who lives over on
the Rock Island wrote to the attor-
ney generals office and asked whether
a Probate Judge could legally per-
form the marriage ceremony outside
of his own county. The answer was
that he could not, being out of his
jurisdiction. This naturally raised
another question in the mind of the
Probate Judge. Is there any imi-
tation to the jurisdiction of minister
in the matter of marriage ceremonies
1t seems that there is no such limita-
ton. A minister may come from Zan-
zibar or New Zealand and perform
the marriage ceremony in Kansas
the very minute he steps out of his
flying machine, provided only that a
couple is ready and willing. In fact
our law prescribes no authority or
qualification except that he be a

license to the preacher nor what sort
of gospel he shall preach. 1t seems
that a half dozen people might meet
on a street corner in Petrograd and
organize a society and license one of
their number to preach the gospel and
that man would have the legal right
to perform the marriage in Kansas
just as soon as he could get here

taken notion that President Wilson
