DEPLORABLE DESTRUCTION
OF FLOWERS

Auto parties that come to Franklin
county on Sundays are again doing
their part of stripping the woods and
rOadsides of wild flowers. On Sun
days cars can be seen heading for the
city loaded down with flowers, branch
es of trees, wild ferns, etc.
One of the queer delusions that find
a place in human minds is the belief
that the picking of wild flowers evil
dences love of mature" and an ap-
probation of beauty, and that to do it
gives evidence of culture, refinement
and virtue. Children not only are al
every opportunity thus to despoil the
fields, and fond parents are proud of
the success their offspring achieve in
this highly deplorable form of de-
structiveness. Since the automobile
came into general use, the extermina-
tion of the wild flowers has been
greatly FASTENED, for now the ravag-
ers are not limited to the fields and
woods close to towns, as before, but
the whole countryside has been made
accessible to them, and, as if they
SOuIu INV w SilOuSl Hdl III ChSIioSiNCSJ
they are paying the country children
who, if left alone, would rarely indulge
in this kind of vandalism-to bring
the flowers to the roads.
The season when the most mischief
can be done is now here and already
there can be seen cars heavily loaded
not only with blossoms gathered one
by one, but also with great branches
and many ferns. Very little of this
loot is carried home, or can be. Most
of it withers within an hour and is
thrown away, but apparently no COM
Function is felt.
Instead of showing delicacy of SEN
timent and a well-developed esthetic
sense, the wild-fower pickers and buy
ers reveal that they are utter barbar-
ians. They do not hate the blossom
ing plants, but the effect is exactly
the same as if they did, for these frail
products of rain and sun lack the
fighting power of the so-called weeds
and if not allowed to live their highly
specialized lives in the places thai

PART OF MANS
FARM DISAPPEARS WHILE
FAMILY EATS DINNER

A number of people from Washing
ton and Franklin county went to
Bland, on the Rock Island railway,
this week to view the mysterious cave
in on the Gleize farm there. A big
section of wheat field disappeared
there Monday of last week while the
owner of the farm was eating dinner.
Over thousand people gathered last
week to see the sight and several hun
dred now visit the place daily. In de-
scribing the cave-in, the Hermann Ad-
vertiser Courier says in part:
"Young Gleize on Monday of last
week was blowing a field on the farm
of his father, J. Geo. Gleize, three and
a half miles south of Bland. Az noon
he went home for dinner, walking
along a ditch that passed through a
field where the wheat stood two feet
high. When he returned he took the
same path Luckily he was not near
sighted nor dreaming, for he never
would have known why so soon he
should be transported into another
world. AS it was, young Glieze was
wide awake. but for moment he did
not know whether he was dreaming or
Just seeing things, for there before
him and in his path was mammoth
hole right in the field of wheat. He
stopped abruptly in his tracks and
it was several moments before he was
able to grasp the situation. Slowly
and cautiously he crept forward to
see where the big area of growing
wheat had gone. So clean cut was
the rim of the hole and the green
wheat waving all along the edge, that
it seemed to him as though a gigantic
post-hole digger must have descended
from the skies and cut out perfect
hole in the field of green. AS he
crawled to the edge of the yawning
abyss his wonder and awe was in
creased an hundredfold, for there
seemed to be no end to the hole; it
seemed fathomless. He notified his
people and the neighbors and the ex-
element knew no bounds. The thing
seemed so supernatural, so weird and
incomprehensible that at first people
feared to get near the hole, feeling
that at any moment perhaps other
holes might appear, holes, which capa-
BILE of swallowing thousands of tons
of DIRT and rock, would not hesitate
at swallowing people. A few ven
tured to the brink and sought to dis
Germ the bottom Of the hole. They
could hear roaring and swish of wa
tiers, and it seemed miles down in the
earth. They also noticed ground cav
ing in all along the rim of the huge
opening, boulders loosening, crashing
down amid a terrible noise, then dis
appearing, and all would be still, ex-
cept again and again the seething and
roaring OF the waters. The thing
