THE NATIONAL
Cemetery ROAD
For Which a $4,000 ApprOpriA.
tiOn Has Been Asked, Should
Come Up In the Special
Session for Passage

Just before the assembling Of the
extra session Of the national congress
which viii probably be called the mid
die Of next month, is the time Of al
times for every business man and elti-
zen Of Baxter Springs, 5pring Valley
township, and all others interested, to
write letter to Senator Charles Cur
tis and Congressman Phil Campbell,
urging immediate attention to the bill
introduced In congress (as soon as the
extra session assembles) in the inter-
ests Of the passage Of the concrete
road bill In the Baxter National Gem
etery. The bill calls for $4,000 ap-
preparation to build q concrete road
to the cemetery where lies the remains
Of 12S union soldiers who lost their
lives in the QVnntrell raid during the
war. A monument is erected there
and each year the government makes
q small appropriation to keep the
cemetery in proper shape, and now II
Is proposed to build q concrete road
from Baxter to the cemetery, to be
IS feet wide on q "a foot rOadbed.
Since the introduction Of the bill in
the last congress, many letters have
been written to Senator Curtis and
Mr.. Campbell, but every citizen should
get busy light now in the letter bust
ness and write our representatives.
The building Of this road should
have been accomplished by the gov
ernment years ago, out Of respect to
those who lost their lives defending
the Union.
When viewed from an industrial
condition, the building Of the road
would stimulate labor and business &C
tivity.
Missouri Congressman have beer
interested In the matter and will sup
port the measure in congress.
It is important for every person Il
write our representatives and urge
immediate action. Baxter cannot at
ford to lose this proposition and the
way to help in securing it is to gel
busy.

WHEAT GROWERS TO MEET

Kansas wheat growers In the So
wheat belt countries will meet in their
respective court houses the afternoon
of Saturday, April rs, to consider
plans for handling harvest labor
problems, a fair harvest wage, and to
select a delegation to represent them
at the Wheat Belt Harvest Labor con-
ference at Hutchinson a week later, at
which an effort will be made to agree
on a uniform harvest wage.
Kansas will harvest about 100000
acres more wheat this year than in
1918. Since the present labor situa-
ton is but little better than that OF
last year, and as wages as q whole
have not decreased, these county meet
ings and the statewide meetings are
considered important.

No Provision Made for a Proper

to Those VINO Fought
Our Battles

Today, in New York. q thousand
Kansans will clasp hands with the
battle SCARED veterans Of the 1S7tf

Of the S5th division. We at long

From New York TO Camp Funston
different cities have dressed them
selves up with functionary measures
of every description for the entertain
ment Of these soldiers, who come
largely from the Kansas National
Guards and through the draft.
The Baxter service flag contains
the names Of 297 veterans Of the
world war, whose addresses are Bax-
ter Springs postOffice. There are yet
fifteen or twenty service stars belong
ing to that flag, the names Of whom
are not known. The parents Of these
have been invited to send in these
names, but they have never responded
And now, at time when these SOL
diers are on American soil, homeward
bound, no provision is made in BaxteI
to receive them in a demonstration Of
welcome. Some have already return
ed and others will follow. Just how
many Of those registered from the
Baxter postoffice are in the units
landing today, no one seems TO know
Baxter Springs has been, and still
is, too loyal to her sons to permit this
matter to 60 unnoticed. The matter
should be taken up and proper ar
rangements made to receive these sol
diers and sailors in q demonstration
that will make them feel that we at
home fought with them through their
battles and now rejoice with them in
their return.
The date of the celebration could
be set for the future and a speaker
of national prominence could be Sc
cured. July 4 is a long way ahead
(only suggestive) but the date mat
tiers not so much, just so that prop
er recognition is given these fellow
soldiers and sailors who are our kith
and kin.

city. Monday, April 14th her little
friend, Hazel Hall, came down to,play
with her, SO Armetia asked her moth
er to come and sing for them. The
mother asked, "What DO you want me

answered: "Sing Who's Going Down
In the Grave With Me?'." And she
sang with her mother. Tuesday
morning Mrs. Claude Estes went out
to visit at the Estes home and in COM
ing back home little Armetia came
with her and when they got home,
why, Armetia said, "Cousin Ida, play
something for me on the piano." Her
reply was, 'T don't know that ! can
play any thing that would be Of inter-
est to you. only play church songs"
Armetia said, 'That is just what
want to hear" So they both sang to-
gether the last song, az Am Dwelling
In Beulah Land" And she said to her

l must co." and she left for her home.
Wednesday morning the father and
brother, Mordecai, came in town to

CAPTURED 444 PINTS

Cherokee county may be "safe fol
democracy" but it is not safe fol
booze haulers, at least that is now the
opinion of REQ Stutz. Stutz, wher
captured, said that he was informed
before he left Joplin, that the "high-
er ups" had Cherokee county fixed
Sheriff Frazier informed the stranger
that as far as he knew, no right Of
way had been granted the booze haul
ers through Cherokee county and
that the justice at Columbus would
do the fixing"
The sheriff and his deputies went
down to the BAXTER Melrose road ear
ly Thursday night to watch for booze
haulers, but after keeping watch all
night, not q single car had showed up
And at 7:30 o'clock yesterday morn
ing the officers were on their way
home when they saw an automobile
coming down the road. The car was
riding heavily ON the springs, a sure
sign of booze car, and the officers
blocked the road and forced the driver
to stop. This occurred at pOin about
three miles east of MelrOse.
Piled in the back seat Of the car the
officers found nineteen cases Of whis-
key. There was four cases Of quart
bottles, five cases Of pint bottles, one
case of gin and nine cases Of half pint
bottles of whiskey, making a total OF
444 pints of liquor. The car the maA
was driving was a 1919 model Buick
6 and is in good condition. Under the
law now in effect the car will prObab-
ly be put up at auction and sold.
A .SS calibre Smith and Wesson re-
volver was found in the front seat
where it could be reached by the driv-
er Of the car.

TOWN TOPICS

It is q lamentable fact that Baxter
has no green house. This item is not
intended to discourage or knock
against anyone who may have flowers
here to sell. What we are aiming to
do is to advocate a greenhouse in
Baxter. We have need for one and
believe that if a person. who under
stood the business would establish
such an institution, he could make it
60.
Several years ago a greenhouse was
started here but the party knew moth
ing about the business, as we learn,
and it failed.
According to the old rule Of fgur-
ing, it takes a failure or two to bring
success, and we trust someone will
start the enterprise.

THE PROGRESSIVE
TOWN WE'D LIKE"
Mrs. Hattie Moore Mitchell
Dean of the Pittsburg Normal
School Speaks Before the
Baxter WOman's Club

The Baxter Woman's Club was hos
tess yesterday afternoon in the ASSEM-
bly, room Chamber Of Commerce to
a large audience Of representative wO-
men Of Baxter Springs, the occasion
being an address before the club by
Dean Mitchell, Of the Pittsburg Nor
NAL.
To those interested in the cause Of
education and to club women Of Kan
sas this gifted woman needs no in
PRODUCTION, therefore, anticipating
that many ladies would be delighted
to hear her talk the club had extend
ed a general invitation to all women
Of the city to attend. This included
the teachers of our public schools
most of whom were present, and thru
a personal acquaintance with Mrs,
Mitchell; enjoyed her talk all the
more.
The speakers subject was, "The
Progressive Town We'd Like to
Have" It's keynote, simplicity, sin
cereity and service" She strongly
emphasized the great necessity Of a
united effort in order to bring about
satisfactory results in any undertake
ing, and spoke Of the sensible and
practicable things that bring greatest
results in the work Of women's clubs.
She made her talk q little more per-
sonal, perhaps, to each of her hearers
by using the phrase, 'The progressive
townswOman I'd like TO be-" Withal,
her talk, her very presence was an
inspiration to the Club and its guests.
Following the address q reception
was held and light refreshments were
served afording those present an OPP
pOrtunity of meeting the speaker, af-
ter which q short business session
concluded the meeting.
Mrs. o. M. Spratt, chairman Of the
clubs entertainment committee, and
Mrs. ]. L. Nelson, Of the Civics Sec
ton, have been especially busy during
the two months Of the clubs exist
enee and are deserving of highest
eommendation for their good work.
Secretary Of the Chamber Of Com
merce C. n. Sarchet proved q friend
in need and g friend indeed to the
club at the meeting by bringing forth
the ''reserve seats" after all chairs
were taken and still the ladies arrived
and were standing in the rear Of the
room and again Mr.. Sarchet came
gaIlantly 10 the rescue BY bringing IN
to the hall the chairs from his Office.
Thus we know that If any commit
tees waited upon him yesterday af-
ternoOn they were standing commit

Reporter Acted as God
Father and Got Fired

'Dorthea and Eugene HodsOn, OF
FairlAnd, Okla, were taken in charge
last night and locked up in the city
jail for incorrigibility.
When a reporter for the Citizen
made his rounds ut police headquar-
ters for news, he was invited to pull
the outside door open Of the Jail and
get our story first hand. This he did
and was confronted by the above two
girls, aged le and 1S years. After
several questions by the reporter con-
cerning their habits, he appeared in
the role of q Godfather and offered
some thoughts Of advice calculated to
make their pathway less liable Of
thorns, to all Of which the girls put
ND a brave front and declared they
were living the life that suited them
But-the advice had soaked In. When
father and mother was mentioned
altho they said their father was no
good, their heads dropped and they
were possibly reviewing some things
Of the past.
Well, they said they were on their
way to the Columbus Jail. But q jail
is no place for these or any other un-
fortunate girls. Kansas has institu-
tiOns for the fallen where they are
kept under the tutelage Of matrons
and Young womanhood is restored.
