Mason whose ripping rhymes are sent

cate. In a recent magazine article
Walt has story Of ''Has-Been Who
Came Back" It is his own story. He
began his Journalistic career at twen-
ty-two, soon became a victim Of drink,
and was down-and-outer at forty-6ve.
Then he went to dry Kansas began
again at the bottom Of the ladder and
climbed to the top. This is what viii
liam Allen White, editor of the En-
poria Gazette and well-known author
says Of him:
'When he (Walt Mason) wrote for
O job on the Gazette he said that he
had all the degrees that could be con-
ferred upon him by certain institu-
tioF which claimed to cure booze-fght-
ers, and that he had tried high re-
fsolyes many times, only to wake up
and find the brewers daughter feed
ing his weeks salary to her fayorite
cat. He said he wanted before he quit
to try a dry town. Now Emporla is
dry town. 1T started dry. In 1867
that isn't misprint for it was sixty
two years a@, in an age when a
preacher could stew his soul in toddy
without losing caste-Emporia in the
charter of the town company started
with a prohibition clause. 1t did not
always hold the Rum Fiend away. But
1t always bothered him to get in. So
he never waxed fat in Emporla. And
for a generation Emporia, while rot
bone-dry, has not been moist.
"When Walt Mason came here the
town was fairly dry. Alcohol formed
no part Of the towns conscious
thought. No one invited him to drink.
He heard no talk Of drink; he saw no
one drinking, and to get liquor he
would have had to associate with loaf
ers and plug-uglles. SO Walt Mason in
a dry town, having plenty Of work to
do, did it well. And the town stood by
him and cheered him. Ten thousand
people became his friends. They are
his friends today"
1T is ten years." says Mr.. Mason,
"since I came to Emporia with my
one extra shirt and my $1.35. Since
prosperity overlook me I have received |
flattering offers from Chicago, New
York, and even from London. But
little old Emporia is good enough for
me-"

Beauty may 60 beautifully in any

& latitude In this matter of wartime
dressing to allow those who can af-
ford 1t, to go as brilliantly clad, when
occasion makes opportunity, as in the
Sast, or to dress as simply as for a
promenade. There are several minds

GLAD TO BE FORCED OUT.


A Missouri saloonkeeper perhaps
expressed the sentiments of his fell
lows fairly well when on being called
TO account for his violation of the law
regarding the sale of liquor, he locked
tie door of his booze emporium and
remarked: 1--WE quit business for
good. The booze business is dead
anyway, and I'm glad to be out of it"
We believe this voices the feeling of
the majority of the vets. The war
which has forced them out Of bust
ness is at the same time offering them
the chance of the ages to enter and
get a start in legitimate industries.
One Of the avowed reasons for the
Presidents brewery closing edict was
the need of men for the really essen
tial, win-the-war enterprises, and any
hduor dealer possessed of a scintilla
of self-respect and desire to stand well
with his fellow men will welcome this
opportunity to begin anew.-Union

Keen and practical observers of the
6yles say that they embody the spirit
# youth and that this is one effect Of
she war. The great armies are made
up Of youths-it is the day Of the
young man, and it is reflected in all
apparel. One might think that for
matrons, this flavor would be absent,
but no! Matrons are as busy as maids
and soldiers, as alert and active, and
their apparel expresses this, which is
the spirit of youth.
In the handsome sllver-tone coat pic
tured something of this idea Is appar-
ent. 1t seems to be simple, but is
really designed with wonderful and
sophisticated cleverness, therefore 1t
may be selected as representative
among garments for women no longer
youthful. 1t is beautiful model suit
ed to all-round wear, with Raglan
sleeves, that give it an ample roomy
look and cleyerly shaped under-arm
pieces that keep it from being bulky.

of coats.

GRAIN GRADE APPEALS

IL q farmer or dealer inter
ested in a lot of wheat or corn
, sold by grade in interstate COM
merce questions the grade as
, signed, he can take an appeal or
dispute to the secretary Of agri-
culture, who determines the true
grade.
To take an appeal he must no
tify the federal district super
visor by telegraph, telephone or
mail, in advance a the arrival
of the grain in the market, of his
intention to appeal the inspec-
tors grade; or after the arrival
of the grain, within 48 hours
after inspection. The name and
address of the nearest federal
supervisor can be secured by
writing the bureau of markets,
department Of agriculture, Wash
ington.
A dispute is an appeal on an
interstate shipment of uninspect-
ed grain that moves between
points where no licensed inspec-
tors are located and where the
grade has been determined by
shipper or receiver. The method
of taking dispute is the same
as in the case of an appeal.
Farmers and dealers can take
up all grain-grading questions
by writing or visiting federal
grain supervision Offices in the
terminal markets.
