 So 1t went around the circle. EEeEy one took hack at poor Hugh. Each one had some fresh evidence of his folly to present and sdilate upon. With a single exception. Young Ike, as we call him, son of fold Uncle Ike, 7 sal behind the cracker barrel and didn't seem to have much interest in the de- bate. When the committee finally rose and drifted out of the store, said to him: Well, what do you think of Hugh Shaver,s manure haulin'? Is he as big a fool 2as tht rest of 'em make eut?

In the par ticular matter involved, that of s1usf Shaver's manure. neither that young man nor nor any member of the committee has any direct knowledge of Hugh's plans or the conditions tin- der which he has to work. He has been farming a good many years. He has done as well as any other farnel of the neighborhoodP to all appear ance. He ought to know and proba- bly does know more about his owr problems than any of his Jess wei informed critics.
 He probabIy has. a reason for draw ing out that particular manure. He probably has a reason for drawing il out at this particular time.

A BUSINESS man filed out his income tax
"A report

S3% And his total gifts to church and charity for
the year were $146
Think of it-thousands spent for Injuries and
pleasure for himself; and $14S leave the world

Most of Us do better than that; but not very
much better.
Our average daily gift for all church causes is
less than we spend for daily papers
less than local telephone call
less than third Of the days car fare
. less than cents day
No wonder that so9S of the ministers of America
are paid less than $40 week. No wonder that the
church hospitals turn away thousands of sick people
year. No wonder that China has only doctor for
every 400 900 people. No wonder that every church
board and charity society is forever meeting def
icits forever passing the hat.
It isn't because we are selfish; it isn't because
we don't want to help. It's just because no one has
ever put up great big program to US, and asked
as to think of the work of the church in system

IN WELFARE WORK
Sentiment for New Law To Be
Created in Kansas.
Mass Meetings Here on Moth
ers' Day, May 8.

To create sentiment for law in
Kansas that will enable counties to
have county departments of public
welfare along the lines of the depart
ments of public welfare that now exist
in many of the principal cities of the
country, is the object of the National
Public Welfare league. according to
Miss Henrietta MayfieId, of Kansas
City. office manager of the league,
who was in Topeka Friday.
The National Public Welfare league
is an organization incorporated under
the laws of Missouri. 1t stands as an
exponent of governmental action for
social welfare and is conducting cam
paigns in Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Ne
braska, Colorado and Oklahoma to
secure the law establishing county well
fare departments
Speakers on the subject will give
an important part of the Mothers Day
services in Topeka churches on Sun
day, May 9. Because of the social
service character of the suggested law
with its relation to the welfare of
mother and child, it was thought APP
propriate to launch the active CAM
paign in Kansas in Topeka on that
day.
Prominent Men Here.
Prominent men who will come to
Topeka to speak for the National Pub
lie Welfare league on that day are
Warden J. K. Codding of the state
penitentiary; DR.. Henry J. Waters,
editor of the Weekly Kansas City Star;

PUSHING SHRINE PLANS
Topekans Confident of Success /
Recent Petition.

Recent Petition.
The I'VE Want a Shrine in Topeka"
campaign is progressing. Topeka Alb
dallah Shrine club is confident they
will win this year.
What we want is a strong pull and
a pull by every Shriner in Topeka and
vicinity" said Secretary James B.
Doncyson today. Our petition has
been received in Boston by the i'm
perial recorder, and I have his receipt
for it. That preliminary is out of the
way, and we can turn our efforts to
other important details. 1t means fast
work, and united work.
A meeting of the Abdallah Shrine
club has been called at the Temple for
Monday evening at s o'clock, at which
matters of vital interest to every Shrin-
er will be presented. The profane
are watching the progress of the cam
paign with intense interest,"" says
President Swayze. why should not
every Shriner take as much interest?
Now is the time to align with the 500
who signed that petition. They auto
maticaliy become members of Amina
Temple If we are successful. If the
nobility Of Topeka want to be counted
with US and not against us. they
should be present Monday evening"

league. The matter win be presented
in practically all local churches by the
above speakers, thru arrangement for
morning, afternoon and evening ad-
dresses
The practical effect of the suggest
ed county department of public well
fare, Miss Mayfield pointed out, would
pc TO enable counties to combine in
one system the work of the different
welfare agencies now possessed by the
government. In a populous county 1t
would mean that the poor commits
sloner, Juvenile probation officer. tru-
ancy officer, county physician and
county nurse would work together in
one office and continue one force,
maintaining a unified system of rec
ords.
In rural county, it would mean
that all these functions would be COM
bined in the person of a trained So
clal worker as superintendent of pub
lie welfare 1t would mean that the
staff in the welfare department would
also look after local cases for the state
probation cases for the district court,
cases for the state board of admins
tration. cases for the charitable and
correctional Institutions.
The president of the league, which
now carries on its educational work in
several states Miss Mayfield said, is
Warden Codding. Others on the board
are Governor Allen, Senator Arthur
Capper, DR.. Henry J. Waters, Dr. Ly-
man NJ. Denton and L. A. Halbert OF
Kansas City, formerly superintendent
of the board of public welfare, and
active worker for the league.

4 FIGHT WITH
A WILD CAT

John Samuels while out
hunting squirrels last week
found a wild cat or the wild cat
found him, and such a mixup
as that cat and four dogs had
is seldom seen. John had re-
moved the shells from his gun
and under the exciting circum-
stances fargot that It was I'M
LOADED, he tried to shoot the
cat but the gun would not fire,
and he discovered that it was
empty, but in the meantime the
fight between the cat and dogs
had become so lively that he
could not shoot the cat without
danger of killing the dog, and
John did not want to be left
with that cat and only three
dogs, in fact he wanted more
dogs, and finally the dogs and
the cat fought into the bushes
and the cat slipped off and
was gone.
This cat and dog fight was
pulled off near the Dolph Car
rigan farm in the road and in
sight of several houses; the
first seen of the cat it was
among the dogs in the road,
and in an instant the fun COM
menced, and ended when the
cat slipped into the brush and
underground on the roadside,
and a chase of several hours
failed to put him up a tree. :
This was bob cat and is said
to have been about four feet
long, and an ugly customer to
deal with.
