FORM MUSIC ASSOCIATION
Kansas City Little Symphony Orches-
ira To Be Brought to Topeka.

Kansas City Little Symphony Orches-
ira To Be Brought to Topeka.
The following are the eleven MEM
| bers who will constitute the Com
munity Music Association of Topeka:
Miss Grace Wilson, supervisor of mu-
sic, Topeka public schools; ]. L.
| Hersh. Frank D. Nuss, George l..
Tuer, Arthur Tucker, P. A. Fairbank,
Harry Colmery, Leslie z. Guild J. r.
Burrow, Jr., Clint Haskell and Will
liam A. Billy.
The committee today signed up with
the Kansas City Chamber Music So
ciety for eight concerts by the Lit
tie Symphony" orchestra of fourteen
artist musicians, of which n. De
Rubertis is conductor, and vocal and
instrumental soloist for each concert.
1t is the intention of the committee
to arrange four afternoon concerts
pupils and four evening concerts for
adults and high school pupils. Miss
Wilson, a member of the committee,
will supervise or select the musical
programs. Season tickets to the four
afternoon concerts or four evening
concerts will sell for 40 cents, or an
average of 10 cents each. while single
performances with admission tickets
sold at the door will be sold for IS
cents.
This acton on the part OF IOpeKa
marks another very advanced step OF
the Topeka spirit, in that it is the first
city in America which will provide
symphony music to its citizens at 10
cents.
The Kiwanis club at it's last meet
ing enthusiastically endorsed the
project and agreed to place its selling
ability behind the project in the city
at large after the schools of the city
had finished their sale of tickets to
their membership. The school chill
| dren are to be given the preference of
the first sale of seats to the end that
they may enjoy the advantage of the
special arrangement which has been
| made in the matter of price The re-
naming number of tickets left over
| of the $500 for each performance will
| be sold to the adults. Only 5000
| tickets will be sold at this price. When
| they are disposed of additional season
| tickets will cost 81 or rs cents per
concert. 1t is a non-profit arrange
| ment and any surplus left over will
| be utilized the following season in the
| employment of special talent for an
| enlarged program.
| The concerts are to be given in the
| months of November, December, jan
| uary, February and March.

! At its organization, the council
consisted of three elders and two
deacons, then in 1898 the number
was increased to six elders and SIX
deacons.
At the present time the council
consists Of l6 members, eight elders
and eight deacons.
In the summer of 1902, the origl-
nal church building being inadequate
to accommodate the Sunday school,
an annex was built to the church
known as the Sunday school room. 1t
being found that this was not in keep
ig with the progress made m the ma
terial world, in the fall of 1916 it was
decided to begin preparation for the
erection of new building, and the
result of this move is the building
dedicated today. On account Of the
expense thus incurred, together with
the drive for Newberry and Summer
land colleges and regular church ex-
penses, this congregation HIS raised
an average of $4500.00 per year for
the last five years.
Since the organization of the con-
gregation, there has been organized
from it's members a Ladies Mission
ary society, a Children's Missionary
society, or Light Brigade, Cradle
Roll, Luther league and Brother
hood.
We have grown from "a members
to over 800 members. Since the ar
rival of the present pastor, the salary
has been raised four times, being
double the amount that it was when
he began serving this pastorate.
The Sunday school has grown from
q small number to an enrolment Of
aoout IT'S, with an efficient primary
department.
The above facts show the steady
growth Of the organization, now a
little more than thirty years old.

Year Without a Summer
Exchange.

Exchange.
In 1916 there was no summer in
the United States.
Snow fell every month of the year.
Since that time 1916 has been gen.
orally called poverty" year because
practically all crops We're total fail
ures. Others have called it eighteen
hundred and frozen to DEATH" Still
others have referred to it as "mack-
erel year" because so little pork was
available that the people lived on fish.
The weather bureau writes US that
snow fell on the seventh of June suf-
hcient to cover the ground at New
ton, Mass, and at Hopkinton, N. H.,
it was four inches deep.
At Salem, Mass, on Saturday, June
8, there was slight fall of snow, but
it was not deep enough to make good
sleighing.
Along the northern portion of
Massachusetts, large icicles were
pendant and the foliage of the for
est trees was blasted by the frosts.
In Williamstown, Mass, the snow was
twelve inches deep on June 8, and in
Cabot, eighteen inches.
Joseph Walker, a old gentleman
of eighty-eight years, lost himself in
the woods at Peacham in the snow
storm on the night of the seventh and
remained there through the night, his
feet becoming so severely frost bitten
that it was necessary to amputate one
of his great toes.
Many people perished in the snow
drifts, birds flew into houses for shell
ter and great numbers of them were
found dead in the fields.

Cruelty to Animals
Gafney Ledger.

There should be in every we'll reg
ulated town society for the preven-
ton of cruelty to animals.sS Our town
is badly in need of such a society.
There is ample law on the statute
books for the prevention of such cru
city, but what is everybory's business
is nobody's business, and as a conse-
quenee there are numerous violations
of this law which are never punished.
It is no uncommon sight for Grip
pied horse or mule to be seen on the
streets which is wholly unfit for work,
and these animals should either be
killed, or their owners should be COM
PEELED to have them ! treated by a
competent veterinarian, where there
Is hope Of permanent improvement.
Stock is frequently brought to town,
and is hitched in some lot, where it is
forced to remain sometimes an entire
day and far into the night without
drop of water, or a bite to eat. Dur
ing the heated term an animal thus
treated suffers untold agony, and the
people responsible therefor should be
punished. In many towns and cities
in the country, members of the soci-
ETY. for the prevention of cruelty to
animals look out for such cases and
when they are found they have the
animals taken to a feed stable, where
they are fed and watered at the own
er's expense, and he is warned that
If the offense is repeated, he will be
prosecuted and punishment imposed.
We were told by responsible citi-
zen, that during the progress of the
Haggard meeting he saw mule
which was hitched four hours at a
time, without food or water, and yet
the owner professed to be deeply ex-
ercised over the effect which he was
deriving from the meeting. In order
for religion to be genuine, it must be
consistent, and a man who would
treat his beast of burden in this man.
ner cannot have the grace of God in
his heart. Moreover, we have the
words of Holy Writ to bear out the
above statement "that merciful man
is merciful to his beast" and the con-
verse Of this proposition must be
equally true, that if he is not merci-
full to his beast, he is not a merciful
man; and what is man without mer-
cy?

Holy Trinity congregation was or
ganized January /, 1891, with "a
charter members, the Rev. J. K. Efrd
being the pastor that perfected the
organization. The Rev. S. L. Nease
served as pastor from June, 1892, to
November, 1895. January l, 1896,
DR.. A. G. Voigt began to serve as a
supply, and continued till December,
when Rev. H. P. Counts accepted a
call to become regular pastor, serv-
ing for three years. At this time
Rev. S. L. Nease accepted call and
again served the congregation for
two years.
Following Rev. Nease, the Rev. ].

GARMENTS FOR DESTITUTE
CHILDREN OF POLAND

Again the call has come to the Red
Cross workers of NewDerry county
to sew for the large number of Po-
lish children who are without clothes.
Reports from headquarters picture
the condition of these children as pit
liable in the extreme-if clothed at
all, it is only in filthy rags.
The severe winter is ahead and it
is up to the Red Cross workers OF
America to save them from freezing.
Newberry county's allotment is on
ly 200 flannel petticoats for children
two years old, very simple and easy
to make From the scraps left from
cutting these, we are asked to make
sacques and bootees for the babies.
These, too, are easy to make, and
the committee hopes that this feature
will appeal to the young girls.
Newberry county has been highly
complimented from Headquarters of
the Southern division for the prompt
; response it has always made, and es-
pecially for the quantity of garments
made in answer to the call last sum-
mer. Let US respond equally we'll this
time.
The material has been shipped and
! the cutting committee expects to be-
J gin work next week.
The chairmen Of auxiliaries and
/! branches are asked to communicate
! with Miss Fannie Mclaughlin, phone
i number 8, as to the number each will
be responsible for.
The finished garments are to be
shipped to headquarters September

distribute them before the usual

Good Stuff, This.

Yorkville Enquirer.
A reader sends in this clipping with
the request that it be "passed along:'
If you want to make it hit,
Get a name!
If the other fellows it,
Who's to blame?
Spend your money in the town
Where you pull the sheckles down;
Give the mail concern frown--
That's the game!
If you're used to giving knocks,
Change your style
Throw bouquets instead of rocks
For a while
Let the other fellow roast,
Shun him as you would ghost;
Meet his hammer with a boost
And Z smile.
When a stranger from afar
Comes along,
Tell him who and what we are
Make it strong.
Needn't fatter, never bluff,
Tell the truth, for that's enough,
Join the boosters-they're the stuff;
Let's belong!
