HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

We are glad to have Miss Ruth
Bingham return to our classes She
enrolled anew Monday.
Our attendance HAS been fine and
our classes are doing their extra
work without complaint. Some times
1t looks pretty hard too. When cards
are issued and some one gets below
10, that is gets a " then comes the
worst day ever.
That was a great day Thursday
last but not much for school. Thirty
two braved the blizzard and were here
with US that morning.
Our students from Ogal1ah are here
TO stay during the week. The going is
too hard on the eOgallah road for
them to make the trips daily as they
have been doing all the year.
Hayden Morgan who has just been
released from the marines was Wis
itor Monday. He is looking fine and
speaks well of Uncle Sam. His friend
Harold Billings who was with him
during his term of service is still help
ing his Uncle Sam
Snowballing is all right as a game
Snowballing on the streets is no more
right than playing any other game
on the streets. So say our author
tiles and say the fair thinkers
| The Scientific American gives a
| very clear and brief synopsis of the
part France has played in the great
war Every one should read that ar
tic1e. He who does will surely appre-
ciate more than ever just what the
war meant and what it cost.
Our boys will try to get to Ellis
for game of Basket ball Friday
evening the 21st and will try thei1
hand against the first high schoo
team played this year. We are wish
ing them all good things. They will
give a good account of themselve
we are sure.
Out of the bosom of the air,
Out of the cloudfolds of it's gar
ment shaken,
Over the woodland, brown and bare
Over the harvest field forsaken,
Silent and soft and slow,
Descends the snow.
Even as our cloudy fancies take
Suddenly shape in some divine ex
preston,
Even as the troubled heart dot
make
In the white countenance confession
The troubled sky reveals the grie
it feels.

WET WEATHER AND MORE
WHEAT

1t is some wet weather we are hav-
ing this winter in this part of west
ern Kansas. The earth had scarcely
dried out from the last big snow when
the blizzard struck US last Thursday.
Not so very much snow fell during
the storm but it was piled upin dFiftss
thus blockading the roads IN Come
places. This snow was melting off
nicely until yesterday afternoon
when it commenced to rain. Late at
night the rain turned to snow and
this morning mother earth was COW
cred with about three inches of the
wetest kind of snow. The roads are
almost impossible in places but the
farmers and land owners are feeling
good over the fact that the sub soil
is getting good wetting which will
practically insure big wheat crop
for next spring. The growing wheat
is looking fine and if the present fav-
orable conditions continue western
Kansas will have another of it's re-
cord breaking wheat crops. The
wheat crop is generally being reserv-
ed on the land which is being offered
for sale.

OLD FRIENDS FIRST IN MIND

Two weeks ago when the word was
received here that Day Moore had re-
ported for duty number of Wa-Kee-
ney friends of Mrs. T. r. Moore unit
ed in sending her a night letter OF
congratulations. We have the pleas
ure of publishing herewith the reply
to that letter written by Mrs Moore
Sheridan, California, Feb IL
Dear Mrs. Ellermeyer:
And all the friends who Joined in
sending the telegram. How thought
full you all are and always have been.
The very first thing I said after get
ting the very best news I ever re-
ceived in my life was, oh! won't Wa
Keeney be glad. Isn't it strange how
we cry when we are sad and cry
when we are glad and do the same
when old friends join in our sorrows
and gladness. Georgia just lost the
use of her knees for about half an
hour and she hasn't got entirely over
it yet and I had my first good nights
sleep. Now we are so anxious to hear
from him and find out where he has
been.
We are having beautiful weather,
not even frost. We had turnips, let
tuce and radishes yesterday out of
the garden.
Mrs. L. &. Moore
Mrs. Moore has rightly judged the
people of Wa-Keeney when she says
that they will be glad over the good
news which has come to her. Indeed
they did rejoice with her and the
news was passed rapidly from friend
to friend with such accompanying
words as "Won't that be fine news
for Mrs. Moore" Wa-Keeney friends
are anxious to know more about Day
and where he had been for so long
and the World hopes to publish the
first letter which arrives from hin
| telling about it.

THE WIDEAWAKE BUSINESS
MAN

No business man in any town
should allow a newspaper published
IN his town to go out without his
name and business being mentioned
somewhere in it's columns This ap-
plies to all kinds of business-gener-
al stores, dry goods, groceries, fur
n1ture Dealers, automobile agents
mechanics, professional men and in
fact all classes of businessmen. This
does not mean that you should have
a double or half page or even a
quarter page advertisement in every
issue of your home paper, but your
name and business should be mention
ed If you do not use more than a two
line space. A stranger picking UP a
newspaper should be able to tell lust
what business is represented in town
by looking at the business mentioned
in the paper. This is the best possi-
bic town advertisement and brings
in more trade for the towns busi-
ness men. The man who does not ad-
vertise his business does an injustice
to himself and his town The life of
any town depends upon the live, wide
awake and liberal advertising bus
