make a mistake by asking man here
from out of town to speak and then
wearing the audience out before they
call upon the guest of honor? To-
peka audiences are made up OF busy
people who aren't used to sitting still
so long. 1t is hard for the young and
old alike and they do not feel the re-
sponsibility of host as they should.
We wonder if the speaker isn't often
times more embarrassed than he
seems.-It takes pep" like Mr.. Biby S
to hold a Topeka audience after it is
tired.
The music of Doctor Morrison's
band was inspiring and we felt that
it was a privilege to hear our own
Kansas military band. l would have
liked to have heard them when they
serenaded Capt. Dick Porter last week.
But did you hear that it was Mrs.
Morrison's spirit that finally got them
here at the last minute? The word
that they were expected to come
! reached them SO late that they
thought it impossible for them to get
here. AS Doctor Morrison said: You
must remem Der that we are not on
the railroad But I want you to
get on the railroad" said Mrs. Nor
rison. And they did.
There is a new war word which
seems to be rivaling -"camouflage'' in
popularity. 1t is "barrage'' Does it
mean a curtain of fire or do they say
