TUESDAY STORENEWS SOFLANSBURGHGBRQ
EDITORIAL,

An entertainment was be-
ing given for wounded sold
iers who fought in France.
Some came on crutches,
some on canes, some in
chairs, and one strapping
young fellow was brought in
the arms of a chum.
This boy lost both his
legs at Chateau Thierry.
They had to be amputated
half way between the knee
and hips.
The rest of his life he will
go about in the arms of a
friend or in a wheel chair.
And, yet, he is the most
happy and cheerful soldier
we have met in all our
travels. Says he is glad to
have made a sacrifice that
will make all the world free.
Keep this picture before
your minds eye during the
Liberty Loan drive. If this
young American gave his
legs without a whimper,
certainly you can do no less
than buy Liberty Bonds
literally.

property of the French government
and are merely being used by the
Americans until their task is COM

Army officials still are working on
the settlement of about 1000 small
claims arising from automobile acci-

said monument to cost $4,000 and
to be completed by June Is. 1920
The idea was advanced to raise
this money through the schools
of the county or at least part Of
it and the county to pay the, ha,
ance. There are 4,76O pupils in
the schools of the county and as
the monument is to cost $4,SO0
the quota per child will be ap-
proximately 81. There are some
districts where it perhaps will
be difficult to raise that quota
and then again there are the
more comfortably fixed districts
which will raise more, so per-
haps most of the money will be
aised through the schools which
will be a fitting tribute coming
from the children.
The committee selc" ed by the
Board of County Commissioners

Bible classes in Topeka. During that
period the exceedingly interesting rec
ords will shown that fifteen hundred
women of this city studied under Mrs.
Menninger'S tutelage four-year
course of invaluable study of the Scrip
lures.
But this number does not begin to
tell the story; in fact it only scratches
the surface. For the first few years
her work was confined to Topeka
alone, but as time went by soma of her
students moved away from Topeka.
and SO interested were they in their
work, and so loath to give it up, that
many of them started classes in the
cities to which they went. Then the
lesson outlines which Mrs. Menninger
worked out and the State Journal
published began to attract people in
other cities who were entire strangers
to her. and still other classes were or
ganized. In that way the work spread
out from Topeka.
Classes in Twenty Towns.
In some of these years there have
been classes in twenty different towns
in Kansas carrying on her work.
Often these came TO Topeka for their
graduation exercises. But it spread
into different states as well. The
records for one twelve-months period
shows classes in California. Indiana,
Montana, Virginia, Illinois, New York,
Washington, Missouri, Alabama, Penn
sylvania, Iowa. Nebraska, Oklahoma
and Massachusetts,. Everyone of the
last twelve years of the record tells a
striking story of how far and wide
into many states of the Union her les
sons and their inspiration and en-
thusiasm spread and took hold.
Her work is now SO well established,
and has taken such firm root in so
many places. that it will probably go
