A GREAT SERVICE STATION

<fThere stands the pital-high
on the hill. A silent, quiet, dignified
service station for all sick and wound
ed We had occasion to use it re-
Gently for one of our very own. Till
then we hadn't thought fully of what
a hospital represents and offers: ser
vice of course, but in so many ways.
Service, but service of such high or
der. Through it's anaesahetic hun
dreds of years of scientific investiga-
ton, care, and discovery; through its
anaesthetist careful, scientific train
ing, through its surgeon the finest
application of accumulated wisdom
and art of the ages in physiology,
anatomy, bacterio1ogy, photography,
and chemistry, and through its nurs-
ing staff application of the highest,
and truest and most basic concepts of
Christianity. To him who would do
good in the world we would say:
build hospitals, encourage scientific
research; encourage and reward high
professional standards, and pray to
God for more Sister nurses
Thus speaks the HaysNews on
the subject of the hospital and a
better Stunning of the meaning of such
an nstitution could not be given in
SO few words. Yet, there are those
who say we do not need hospitals in
the smaller cities where they will be
| easy of access. The foregoing has
direct reference to ST. Anthony hospi-
tai at Hays but it can be appropri-
ately applied to any other hospital in
the state of Kansas. A hospital has
proved to be a great and beneficial in
| stitution to any city and to the people
| living within its territory. When the

more apparent than they are now.

DICTAGRAMS

1t is now considerably more than
forty years since the dictagrammer
landed in Kansas, not farm from the
southeast corner of the state. He
was young then and eager to spy out
the modern land of Canaan, filed with
new and interesting sights Fresh
from fiat, wooded country, in his
mind Ball Mound seemed almost as
majestic as a mountain. From its
top the eye surveyed miles and miles
of prairie and for a few brief
moments he was the imaginary mon
arch of all that fell within his vision.
It was his-al1 his, to look at and
dream over, if no more Off to the
southwest lay Blue Mound, as rrays-
ferrous as the cerulean haze that
shrouded it and gave it a name To
the eastward rose the smoke of
shelters where lead and zinc ores
were rendered tame and tractable-
and he had never seen mine of anv
kind More romantic yet-tradition
said that the Spaniards centuries be-
fore had opened mines of silver in
this very region-sonewhere Not
far away, Franz Sige1 had fought his
running fight with the Confederates
who were on their way to Pea Ridge
and battle-scarred farm houses were
still standing There was the old
military" road that ran straight
south from FIT. Scott to FIT. Smith and
the story of the massacre of Blount's

pecan, came Spring River, and thence
came Shoa1 Greek, forest-fringed and
broken by lodges. Joining their
forces in Kansas land they cut off the
corner of the state and stole away
southwark into the territory, and
there, over-hanging the western edge
of their united waters, rose The
Devils Promenade and Pine Bluff
high rocky, limestone lodges, laid
bare by a million years of erosion-a
million years of wind and wave, of
frost and friction
Pine Bluff was great place for
picnic parties-especially parties of
young folks. Aside from its natural
beauty and interest, Pine Bluff had its
legends and its nystery-the mystery
of the reticent man who lived a life
of seclusion in cave halfway down
the face of the bluff and whose hab-
itation was reached by a rickety lad
der of logs and poles. Years later,
stray letter which was opened by
mistake disclosed a story of conjugal
infelicity, the scene of which was laid
a thousand miles away. And to that
extent, at least, we had an explana-
ton of the mystery that shrouded
''The Hermit of Pine Bluff.
1t was in the summer of 1914 that
Fremont and his band of explorers
crossed Kansas, travelling from the
west toward the east, following the
course of the Smoky Hill river more
or less closely tsThe Pathfinder
had been commissioned to find a feas-
ible route for a railroad across the
continent and this probably was the
first time white men had ever visited
the region now known as Trego Cour-
ty, Kansas. Fifteen years later the
discovery of gold in the Pixies Peak
region caused other adventurous men
to trek across Kansas, following the
same general course, but it was not
until the middle and later sixties that
Butterfie1d established a permanent
or fixed trail from the Missouri to the
Rockies through this part of the
state. One of the stations of this
trail was named Button, or White
Rock, perhaps because it was nea1

or wall of soft, white stone, over

Cove county stood Castle Rock. The

gashed and torn by torrents, has re-

IN STATE SENATE

The strain of working half a day
in the senate, Wednesday, afternoon,
proved too much for Senator Fisher
of Shawnee county, who is now con-
fined to his bed and is seriously ill.
On account of several bills in his COM
mittee which he wished to get before
the senate, Senator Fisher spent too
much time on the floor Wednesday,
Senator Van De Mark of Cloud county

ate is adorned with an outIandish ere

panied the animal denominates it, was

derstand, but he values it highly and
it stands on the law books on his desk.

which passes under his hands ..I

from stealing the blooming thing"
Senator Burdick said this morning.
The stock yards bill, which has been
hanging back until the industrial court
business was settled, to see whether
there would be any industrial court
left, will probably come before the
senate Tuesday, Senator Burdick said
this morning. The senate has dealt
with the industrial court measure, and
it is up to the house to settle it now.
The house can just as well settle both
matters at once, the senator from
Atchison county believes, and he sees
no reason for further delay in the up
per house.
The ways and means committee is
making an extended trip in the west
ern part of the state this weekend,
visiting several of the state institu-
lions there. The soldiers home at
Dodge City and the state reformatory
at Hutchinson are among the places
which the committee will inspect. The
tour of this weekend. it is believed,
will about end the travelling which the
committee will have to do this session,
and next week they win settle down
to the drafting of appropriation bills
for the institutions which they have
already visited.
Several senators not members of the
committee accompanied the ways and
means committee on the trip.
Life is real and life is earnest for
the senate committee on tie judiciary
which is the only organization of that
body which is working this week end.
The committee on penal institutions
and the committee on ways and means
are in the far west, and there are not
enough senators lett to make a

The judiciary committee met ats
o'clock Friday morning, and refused
to come out of their session even long
