was not great and will he re
paired immediately.

ston Rice to Allenstand and ar
rested him. He was brought

able to furnish it he was sent to
ail. A reward of $50.00 had
been offered for the apprehen
sion of Holland but the sheriff
fulfilled his duty and the man
was arrested without cost to the

We hope the limit may be
given him and that such crimes
may bo stopped. Bootlegging

should be stopped.

Peter Schofle'ld Is one of the
real noblemen of the world, al
though he is only a Kansas far
mer. One day the people riding
by the little country schoolhouse
near the home of Peter Schofield
found the following notice tacked
on the schoolhouse door:
The Lord has spared my
stock. My horses have gone
through the epidemic without
loss, and I have twenty head to
loan to my less fortunate neigh
bors, without charge, for plow
ing. Those who need are wel
come to tliem.
This simple notice brought
joy to many of the neighbors of
generous Peter Schofield, for a
stock plague had raged in the
rural neighborhood and some of
the farmers had lost all of their
horses and were too poor to buy
others. This plague was the
worst disaster that had come to
this part of Kansas since the
days of the great pest of grass
hoppers that swept thousands
of acres of crops from the fields.
This generous deed on the part
of Peter Schofield proved that
he was a man of a true heart
and generous' spirit, and all
those who see things in their
right perspective '-must agree
with the writer who says:
"No title is more adorning
and no honor is more enduring
than the generous impulse which
inspired this man to become a
benefactor to the distressed in
his community." J. L. H.
The above clipping taken
from the Christian Herald might
give every one of us a subject
for thought. Are there at this
Thanksgiving time any around
us who may need us, Let's
