?tt. D. Egerton and J. O. Sledge
will visit Alfert on Wednesday night for
the purpose of interesting the farmers
ot that section in the Farmers Union.
?Quite a number of people watched
with much interest the overflow of the
standpipe Wednesday. The wind was
blowing and caused quite an interesting
scene. v . . i
?The County Farmers Union held its
meeting in the court house here yesterday.
Only a small number were present
on accoudt of being behind in picking
cotton. . '
?Sheriff Boone reports to us that
Mr. S. E, Dement of Harris township,
was the first man to pay his taxes for
1911 to Franklin County. This looks
good for .Harris.
?Chief Tucker is doing some fine
work on Elm street. He and the Btreec
committee are to be congratulated upon
putting this street in shape as it has
been neglected for lo these many years.
?L. F. Yates presented the editor of 1
the Times with a fine four and one half c
pound sweet potatoe one day the past
week for which we extend our thuiks. :
It is by far the largest we have - seen
this-season.
?Superintendent R. 0. Beck made j
good his statement that on Wednesday
he would All the standpipe to over- r
flowing with water. Good for him. We 0
are now "wet" in this particular any- j
way. ^
?Judging trom reports from all parts
of the county tne many contestants are
"shelling the.woods" and making big
headway. Good for them. We knew
that the young ladies m this section
were, workers. ]

citizens, draw trade to the town,, puts 1

" W-We 'have no prejudice against the <
neatly dressed, nice appearing boy, *
while we do detest the fellow who goes
around loo^ng like a bunch' of hard 1
hick,but a girl looking for a model husband
should lie careful. If you don't '
know onS"when you see him, ask mother 1
she will recognize him at sight.

ed with' what is of social value to you.
In its prosperity you have-a vital inter-]
est, and, to its prosperity you can best
contributory Riving your best support
and p:itrppage. It is your neighbor.
?Every Rood citizen of this town
should take a special local pride in al
that pre'taius to home. The schools,
I the churches, the amusemAts.the busi- (
ness pleasures, the picnics, the cele
-b'rations, in fact everything should be
* -rlpoked on "by our own people as just as
good as can be gotten up elsewhere.
The town that says "we can, " will al-ways
succeed. .

"the melancholy days are come" by ;
. the amount of golden leaves piled in'dis- 1 s
crimingtely about. If "father's pride <
and mo.ther's j'oy" will direct half the' 1
energy lie displays in a game of shinny ]
to raking the afore aid leaves and burn 1
ir.g ot otherwise destroying them it I
will takb about twenty-foyr hours to t
4 make the lawns about town present -a s
difference in their appearance. j
? Would it not be well for parents f
who have children attending school in- '
the town to take interest enough in the
-schools and their children to yisit the
. schools at least once during the term \
' We hear parents complaining of the r
schools, who have no more knowledge j
of how they are being conducted than <j
a resident of China has.. We do know a
that strangers who have visited our 't
school have gone away and said that
we have the best schools of any town
in the country.
| When the people can be mad" to
Understand that it actually costs ,more
in time and money to travel over a
poor road than it does tc travel our a
good one, they will be lets inclined to
begrudge the exDense of good roads,and
what is more important still, will
be willing and anxious to put the business?
of road making into rlie hands of.
intelligent men who understand the
business. Poor roads are the expensive
things that curse a country district. " ;

vansas of which Dr. B. J. Crumbine is a p
lecretary printed a great amount of
iterature with the aim of educating J
nothers as to care of infants and how Re
a fight preventable diseases, much ha:
lifficulty was encountered in getting
;he literature in the hands of the people ^
Then the Boy Scouts were callsd in aIK
ind concerning them Burr writes: you
'Where we have found scout orgauiza- 83 '
dons we have had no trouble in getting
;hem to district their town and diatti- ~
>ute this literature, and in some cases
hey have even gone further and cleanid
up filthy conditions and entered into
i general crusade against preventable P
lisease."
Because of the eagerness with which
he Boy Scouts have helped in this work
n certain parts of Kansas an appeal 0
las been made to all the Scout Mas- Slei
era of the state to take up the ?
rork of distributing the literature. S
