WORK TOO BIG AND BEAUTIFUL
TO BE PAID FOR In DOL
LARS AND CENTS,
(By Mrs. Nj. McDaniei)

What greater compensation could
man or woman ask for than the
knowledge of work well done to as
siSt his felloWman To have funds
available to pay for milk and nour-
ishment for the sick child, to watch
that little child grow and come back
to normal health, the rightful heri-
tage OF every child; to know the Red
Cross funds have paved its way to
happier living; to see the smile on
the face of the aged, helpless crea-
ture whose wants have been sup
piled (perhaps they only consist OF
fresh sheet, a blanket or pair Of
warm hose); to know sthat some
destitute mother and little ones
stranded in your town have been
well fed and safely sent to their own
people, is compensation indeed. To
be placed where you can help the ex-
soldier. suffering with that dreadful
malady, tuberculosis; to help him
home to at least die among his own
people, to know that his load is a
little lighter because of you and the
Red Cross funds.
To assist the sick and destitute,
regardless of color, to be placed in
the great hosp tails all over our coun-
try; to know their Pain has been
lessened and their lives prolonged
because of your assistance. TO help
the little girl get back on the road
she thoughtlessly left; to see that
the feeble-minded child is placed
where it will at least have the bene-
fit of an experienced teacher.
Just to reach out and aid our suf-
fering fellowman; N other words, to
be in position to help suffering
humanity. What greater compensa-
tion could man ask than results from
their efforts?
/ feel positive that the Parish
Chapter would pay me a salary, but
l agree with Miss Beulah Bourgeois,
who has held the office of Treasurer
for two years, paid all bills and
looked after the financial end of the
business, that the work IS too big
and beautiful to be paid for in dol
lars and cents.

RED CROSS WORK SHOULD AP-
PEAL TO EVERY ONE.
(By w. j. Kelleher)

The peacetime work of the Red
Cross is of nature that should ap-
peal to everyone. This work not
only embraces health investigation
and health education, but in the case
of children, particularly, an exami-
nation Whcih permits treatment in
time for many of the troubles to be
remedfed so as to permit of the
normal development of the child.
In addition, this work also ma
teria.ly assists orphans, the aged and
unfortunates who are not able to
care for themselves.
This work of the Red Cross is
already showing very good results,
and it's continuance should go long
way towards improving the future
health of the community.

nished for entrance. She was ae-
companied down there by the secre-
tary and placed in the Home where
she will be taught to read and write,
and the art of basket making, etc.
This girl is sixteen years old and
was raised in an asylum in New o.

was feeble minded, her education
was very much neglected. She has
a half sister who g also feeble mind

father refuses to let her go. He
abuses her and her mother also.
We have made every effort to get
this child away from there, and so
far have been unsuccessful. She
also has a cousin who is feeble mind

in and are trying to get into the
Home, so when she is Is years OIL

request that he cooperate with us
In the matters and things herein
complained Of"
My information Is that you en-
couraged the attorney general to Sc
cure the passage of the bill by the
last legislature revoking the charter
of the Southwestern Bell Telephone
company, yet after an interview you
ccepted the service OF the company's
attorney to prepare "a veto message
to the legislature, We, of course,
assume that this veto message did
not cost the company anything ex-
cept for the service of it's attorney
in preparing same, yet the company
did unavoidably incur some expense
and suffer some confusion in Its
business in fighting the matter be-
fore the legislature. This expense,
and such expense as was necessary
to secure the preparation OF the veto
message by the company's attorney
will undoubtedly be passed on to the
consumer in the end.
We have particularly desired not
to force unnecessary expenditures
upon public service companies,

pcnditures must be passed on 10 the

One Of The Old Ones.

We greatly enjoyed a visit one day
last week from Mike Stephenson, Of
Thurman, Iowa, who was here to visit
with his many nephews and nieces,
making his headquarters at the home
of his niece, Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. Markt,
Of this city. He was brother of the
late John Stephenson, and an uncle Of
the late George s. Stephenson, who
died so suddenly September z, 1920
and left so many aching hearts among
our people.
He belongs to that line Of early
settlers of our county, of whom there
are so very few left, who came here
in 1889, being only four years old
: when he came, and he was the son Of
William and Margaret Troutman
Stephenson. The father was born in
Virginia and his mother in France.
There were 10 children in the family.
six sons and seven daughters, all Of
whom are now dead, save "Uncle
Mike" and a sister, Mrs. Rachael
Price, now OF Fairfax, whom he will
visit before his return home.
His brother, Blank Stephenson, was
killed by lightning bolt May 2S, lS4i,
and II was the first death by lightning
in the history OF our county.
These two brothers, Blank and
Peter. who came to Holt in 1888, and
settled on what is now known as the
George Meyer place, returned to In
diana and brought back with them
their father, William, ST., and their
brothers, Mike, John and James, and n
married sister, Mrs. John Baldwin and
her husband, and thus came this his
toric family into the early making Of
Holt county.
This caravan Of the early pioneers
crossed the Nodaway river at the
rapids" east Of Richville. II consist
ed of two four-horse teams, one two
horse team and one one-horse team.
"Uncle Mike" was born in Park
county, Indiana, March 4, 1885, during
the presidential term Of Andrew Jack
son. In 1861 he went to Thurman,
Iowa, where he has since resided, and
il the owner of many acres. lie at
tended the old log school house, which
was then located on the land now own
ed by Albert Markt, and his first
teacher was'a man named Schofield In
1910. Among his school-mates were:
Lorenzo Pierce, Phoebe Springer, Mar
garct Russell, and all the Russell girls,
excepting Sarah, mother of the late
Bud Norman; the Jacksons, from
whence came Jacksons Point; Sam
johnson, Henry Stcrreit. All these
families came from Indiana and fol-
lowed the StephcnSons TO Holt county.
He has five children: Mrs. Mary
Sheer, OF Thurman, Iowa; Mrs. Mag
gle Thornton, of Council Bluffs, Iowa;
Oscar, Of Hammingsford, Ncb.; Porter,
Of Thurman, Iowa, and omcr, of Blair
Oklahoma. There are - grandchil-
dren and seven Experimentation.
His first wife died January 20, 1898,
and his second wife passed away De-
ccmbcr 90, 1919, since which time he
has been making his home with his
son, Porter.
Though now well toward his seth
milepost, he IL most wonderfully

trusts he may yet be granted many
more years.

A Mountain Of Wheat

From the Kansas City Times Of De-
tober 4th, we take the following, which
will be Of interest to our readers, as
both the gentlemen referred TO are
Oregon men.
"Out In Ness county, Kansas, a
mountain Of wheat, seventy-fivc hun
dred bushels, has been piled on the
ground for weeks, with no promise Of
cars in the near future. The wheat is
the property Of Joseph Murray and
George Patterson, Oregon, Mo-, men,
and Is from the field on their ranch
near Arnold. In hope Of getting the
grain moved, Mr.. Patterson chartered
car and shipped some apples to the
ranch from Missouri. When the car
arrived 1t was found to be unfit for
grain hauling"
We are sorry we cannot reproduce
the picture Of this big pile of wheat
II looks like a small Missouri bluff.
