NOW I thought when Just child,
though tho theory now seems wild,
that the reason they wore ruffs In that

said ron with his" or with her head
That the run would sort Of help things
IN this way.
When the headsman made the chop

run around the head would make a

Now those headsmcn you can sec

the chopped on heads were over run

In those days n Is quite true that
the men were ruffed up too and the
greatest brains emerged from out the
frin. Bill Shakespeare wrote his best,
am sure. when he was dressed in q
run Whereon he wiped his facile quill
And when Drake and Raleigh sailed
while the angry pillows rallied and the
winds and waves were rough, In linen

Hays Calls Many Young People

A recent call from the Fort Hays
experiment Station, at Hays, has re
Vealed the interesting fact that Sa-
ina, has sent ten competent men and
women to that city during the past
two years, not one of whom has lost
his position or been transferred to
another position,
Perhaps the most widely known of
these IS Lawrence Lindsay, of Bun
ker Hill, official court reporter for
the twenty-third judicial district, IN
deg Judge Ruppenthal. Mr.. Lindsay
has been IN his present position for
more than a year, and has his host of
friends. Court reporting is one of
RE most remunerative lines of stem
t.graphic work, and Russell County is
proud of the fact that the man who
holds this position in the district in
which she is represented is one of her
own sons. Russell County can al
most lay claim to another of the
young people sent by the Kansas
Wesleyan Business College to Hays,
". n. Chesterfield of Wilson, now
stenOtypist in the Citizens State Bank
Chase County has sent two stem
osraphers to Hays, to Civil Service
positions. Miss Rachel White of Gle
ments, Kansas, has been the excel
Lewis of the Hays State Normal for
the past year. This is one of the
most responsible and important bust
ness positions an educational insti-
tuition has to offer. Miss Edna Kane
of Cottonwood Falls, has within the
past few days begun her work as 2
stenOtypist under Supt. G. R. Weeks
of the Fort Hays Experiment Station.
Everett Shellenberger, Lyons
County man, whose home is Bushong,
Kansas, last summer secured a posi-
ton with G.. Schwaller Sons Lumber
and Coal Company, with which firm
he is still employed.
Hays recently called three young
=. 3men from Salina for her bank po-
sitions. Miss Kathleen Lyons of Man
haitian, has been head bookkeeper fol
some time for the Citizens State
Bank. Miss Cora DeNoon of Manka-
10, later accepted the position of as
sistant boOkkeper in the same bank
Miss Elsie Fallen of Hope, during Feb
ruary of this year, was attracted by
the opportunities offered by the bank
in Hays. She resigned her position
as stenographer IN the Farmers Ma
tIonal Bank of Salina and began hel
work in the latter bank Immediately

Senator Bristo,v's Lecture

Life and Achievement of General
U. S. Grant" was the subject of the
address so ably delivered at the Meth
odist church last Sunday evening, by
Ex-senator, ]. L. Bristow, member of
the State Utilities Commission, and
editor of the Salina Journal. Mr..
Bristow voiced the sentiments of
many others when he declared Grant
to be one of the greatest military
heroes that ever lived. He made the
interesting statement that Grants
tactics at Richmond were identical
with those of General Haig and Ne
vile in the present defense of France
IN defeating the German armies.
The service was a great one, and
the church's capacity was taxed to
its utmost. The choir and congre-
cation opened with "The Battle Hymn
Of the Republic" followed by prayer
by Rev. Hale. The Junior choirs
sang the song that Miss Slingluff
has made so popular in the public
schools, 'tMy Dream of the U. S. A."
Mr.. Malloy sang and the audience
closed the service with out beloved
America" DR.. Lewis in presenting
the speaker prepared the audience
for fine address by stating that Mr..
Bristow was a man of great exper-
fence and having a vision which will
be of great use in the wonderful re-
construction at the close of the World
War.

NURSES TAKE
STEPS TO SEE
ACTIVE SERVICE

At a meeting of the Graduate
Nurses Club of Hawaii, held last even
ing in the nurses quarters at the
Queens hospital, steps were taken to
make application for utilization with
the American Nurses association, the
national organization of nurses. This
action was the result of desire on
the part of large number OF local
nurses who would like to join the Red
Cross SO they might eventually see
service in France. 1t is necessary
first to join the American Nurses as
ISOLATION before admission to the Red
Cross nurses organization is allowed.
There were more than IS nurses in
attendance. When the votes were
taken on whether or not the local club
should apply for admission to the ma
tional association, there was no oppo-
sition to the plan.
Miss Mary Johnson is president of
the Graduate Nurses club and Miss R.
L. Dobson is vice-president Owing to
Miss Johnson's absence tho yice-presi-
dent had charge Of the meeting.
