The storm of applause which swept the
city subsidized only after the shrieking
Of whistles and sirens and the clangjng
of church bells had thrown the popu-
lace into a hysterja Of cheering.
The signal for the outburst, which
rivalled that of the first armistice day,
was the arrival at South Station Of the
Massachusetts delegation to Chicago
on train plastered with Coolidge
banners. Thousands of persons at the
station were cheering madly, automo-
bile sirens were shrieking. and the
delegates, surprised thought belated
troopship had arrived.
The cheering crowd fell into line be-
hlnd the delegates and marched to
the State House, where "Cal." sitting
quietly at work at his desk, as usual
heard their bedlam.

House to congratulate the Governor.

Claiming H. Cox, Frank B. Hall, chair
man OF the Republican State Commit

Three Cheers for Oregon
Cheers were given for "the next

gested three cheers for Oregon" The
response was hearty. 1t was an Ore

and what more could you ask?
Have you noticed that in seasons
when there is the greatest growth of
vegetation there is also an increase in
the crop of bugs and worms, and in
sect pests to prey upon it? Just
about this time of the year small
flock of growing chix is found use
full in the garden for an hour or two
each day. However out there at War
noak we have discovered that one
toad is worth dozen chix in the des-
truction of some kinds of worms, and
far more trustworthy. Our discovery
was after this manner: A sort of web
worm is stripping our wild grape vine
and we conceived the idea of Earring
them to the ground so the chix could
devour them. The Earring process
was rather successful but nary a chick
would even look at the repulsive
worms. However, the chix had hard
ly turned their backs on the worms
before a large toad came out from
his hiding place and began to snap
them up in a manner that was both
amusing and rather satisfactory to
the onlooker but mighty hard on the
worms.

IS CANDIDATE FOR SENATOR

c. E. Howard, of Rawlins county,
in company with E. T. Eller, were
WaKeeney visitors Friday on their
way around the 39th Senatorial Dis
trict. Mr.. Howard is a farmer and
stockman over in RawIins county and
is warmly supported by Mr.. E11er
for the nomination for senator from
the 39th district. The World ac-
knowledges very pleasant call from
the gentlemen and Mr.. Howard ap-
1audable ambition to represent his
district in the state senate. He is
laying his claim mostly to the fact
that he is a farmer and stockman and
believes that he could best serve the
interest of his constituents in. the Of
fee for which he is asking. He
is asking for and will appreciate the
support of the Republican voters in
the primary.
Mr. Howard was a member of the
board of county commissioners of
Raw1ins county for ten years. Dur
ing his administration a bonded in
debtedness of forty Thousand dollars
was paid off and the county was
placed in good financial condition.
He believes in capital and labor hav-
ing and equal show and if nominated
and elected there will be no partially
shown according to class but he will
work for the best interests of the
district He is opposed to military
training and believes that the young
| men should be the farm or in
places of business rather than in mil
| itary camps.

number for the last several years be-
ing about one per week Issuing q
marriage license makes little work
but no money for the probate Judge.
However, every license issued pro-
duces $3.50 revenue for the county
and fifty cents for the state.
Oh certainly it is all nght-per-
fectly all right and according to lawI

says nothing about what kind of gos-
pei nor who shall issue the license
On the other hand, justices of peace
and other magistrates must confine
their notarial activities within their
own particular baiIiwicks, and by GUS
tom local pastors also are more or
1eess limited by geographical and
membership lines.
Getting away from the roses and
the matrimonial crop: Have you no
ticed how the honey locust trees have
grown already this season? And if
you are a close observer you will see
that many of them are loaded with
seed pods, so it is evident that the
Easter freeze did not get all the
bloom. And have you noticed whether
it is the thorny locust the smooth
ones that have died in the last few
years. Take look and think it over.
The locust may die from the ground
up and still remain green and full of
life below the surface. However, a
dead tree of any kind is neither a
thing of beauty nor joy forever.
Eternal vigilance is the price of any
thing green in this part of Kansas
plant and repIant, year after year.
If no shade trees had died ON the
TOWNSHIP in the last ten years Wa
Keeney would now be veritable for
est. It is rather discouraging but
we should keep on planting and re-
planting-treees, shrubs and vines.
Think how naked and bare the land
scape was thirty years ago and hop
to it.

The foregoing experience has been
repeated several days in succession
and it goes without saying that we

toad He is not a tree toad, of course,
and being rather clumsy it is hardly
likely that he could be taught to climb
trees and attack the worms right in
their liar. But it seems that he
might be taught to come at call The
toad has more sense than he gets
credit for. He knows enough to get
out of the sun as well as out of the
rain. He knows enough when he is
pursued by and enemy, or supposed
enemy, and says so;and if overtaken
he cries out in despair. In short, the
toad is quite human, or even super
human in the matter of worms.

1900 Years AGO Citizens of
Rome Were Tormented by
Same Plague.
DEFIED THEIR MIGHTY RULER
DocIetian's Edicts Have Familiar
7ing--His Edicts and Curses Do
ing Mo Good, He Advised
Resort to Boycott

Rome.-Let those who can draw
comfort from the fact know that H.
G. L., is no newer than many other
plaques which poor humanity suffers
from. In fact, the citizens of Rome,
now tormented with further leaps and
bounds in prices, are trying to console
themselves with the discovery, made
by those who read ancient books, that
this city was bothered with the prof
iteer 1000 years ago.
Ruler Fixed Prices.
In the reign of Diocletian, who
iourished in 300 A. D., the emperor
was so disturbed by his subjects, who
suffered from the III. G. L., that he
fixed the prices of foodstuffs and drew
schedule for workmen's wages. To
read his proclamation is to read the
many long-winded documents which
food controllers, mayors and other
public functionaries have perpetrated
in the past three or four years. The
condemning of the profiteer, moved
by greed for profit which is out of
all proportion to the real value of the
goods he SELLS" and the imperial wish
that his fixed prices should be re-
spected throughout the empire" have
a familiar ring which makes glad the
hearts of historians who want. to
make history popular
But relief, comfort and joy do stop
there. For it is enough to read a lit
tie further to discover that the good
emperor's laws and curses against
newly rich and profiteers were as use
less 16 centuries ago as they are to-
day. And, in despair, the good old
Roman tyrant implores his honest
and patriotic subjects" to resort to
the one and only remedy, boycott of
high-priced goods.
With this rulers history fresh In
their minds. the modern citizens of an
cient Rome are now being Informed
that the following goods are to go up :
Aluminium goods, 500 per cent
