report that eve will always have from

H NICKEL LIBRARY

When it comes to best sellers" the two dollar editions of
present day fiction have n9 records to equal the paper covers of
the ooyhood days OF the elders OF this generation. And there Is
considerable to be said of those same paper covers at that. We
do not fear that they will come back again, in fact, we very much
fear they won't, for not much in a literary way can be bought for
five or even ten cents in these day s.
As we remember the five and tencent novels, they did not
make much OF a hit with the guardians of our moral and ethical
standards of boyhood, but they certainly appealed to our own in
mature literary taste. There was much that was pleasant between
the fhmsy covers, which sent us in imagination roaming the great
plains with Buffalo Bill, chasing criminals with Cap Collier or de-
stroying the wild-eyed cannibals of sunny isles of southern seas
with Jack Harkaway. There was the eysian dreams of romance
and adventure before our minds and Virtue with a capital V always
met with a sure and abundant reward Where was the harm?
Search us.
Searching memory, we are unable to recall one single bed
room scene, not a hint of a nasty sex problem, no mention of the
eternal triangle" not a yelled allusion to base motives of white
slavery Williams. The nickel library and ten-cent fiction of years
agone was crude and stifted in diction, but it was clean in motive
and IN reality did nothing more harmful to young minds than to
fire ambition to get out into the world and do things. a desire that
in real boys, needs no incentive of doubtful literary nature to en-
thuse. OF course, there are plenty of juvenile books of a high
moral plane in modern literature, but we are doubtful of their pop
uiarty with the young, as compared with the "Deadshot Ike" var
iety of our boyhood.
We admit, with Lincoln. that all the people cannot be fooled

Burglars broke into Fred Hult-

ranch, Thanksgiving Day, between 1
and 8 o'clock in the afternoon, while
the family was only a quarter of a

a door and succeeded. They stole one
purse containing $4.70 and another lit
tie purse, belonging to little Walter

mostly pennies, which he had saved
for Christmas. They also took 35
cents belonging to Joe Hultgren, q
flashIight and hand saw. Two gold
watches and silver watch lying neal

Nj. Hultgren thinks he knows who
the guilty parties are, and says that
he hopes, that if make another visit
he can "wecome them with few
pills which will be blessing to the
community and lesson to them
selves"

IR. R. TEEL VICTIM OF SMALLPOX

R. R. Teel, prominent farmer who
lived on the old Robert Teel place a
mile and half south of Monett, died
at 5:45 Tuesday morning, November
20, of smallpox. Mr.. Teel contracted
the disease at Kansas City when he
took drove of cattle from New Mex
leo to the Kansas City market. He

Springfield came to care for him,
but the disease was in the hemor-
rhageic form and could not be con-
trolled

Site cemetery Tuesday afternoon. A
public funeral could not be held.
r. R. Teel was the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Robert Teel and was born in

lived the greater part of his life near
Monett. He was married twenty
eight years ago to Miss Tenny Brown
ing, who died in 1915. They were
childless. Robert Teel, his father
died several years ago.
He is survived by his mother, with
whom he made his home, three bro
theirs and six sisters. The brothers and
sisters are as follows; Will Teel, of
Hooker, Okla; Ora Teel, of Peirce
City; Mrs. Anna Rumbaugh, of Clare
more, Okla; Leonard Teel, Mrs. Jane
Browning, Mrs. Minta Holmes, Mrs.
Myrtle Rumbaugh, Mrs. Bertha Rus
sell and Mrs. Pearl Goodnight. Many
other relatives and friends mourn his
loss. --~
The death of Mr.. Teel from the
dread disease has caused universal
sorrow in the community in which he
lived so many years.He was an honest
and honorable man, kind hearted and
friendly, and his death is great loss
to the community.
