Smith who was taken so suddenly ill a few weeks since is still kept at his home and while he is much improved was not so as to be back to the place of business when the writer was in Greenwood last week. All his friends are hoping he may soon be well again and able to be about the store. Mrs. L. C. Marvin entertained at her home on Thursday of last week the members of the I. C. C. club, when a most enjoyable time was had, by the ladies as they also entertained their husbands and had good eats, and a very good time. Just who won or lost we were noi lmormeu uu were assured that they all enjoyed the occasion. Al Ethrege who has been assist ing at the farm of Louis Harmer, with the tearing down of an old building and building a new one as well as some smaller ones has com pleted his work and returned to town. While they were at it they constructed a cattle shed 24x38 and also two dog houses, one for Mr. Hammer and one for Mr. Ethrege. Frank Rouse has been busy on the removal of the house which has stood on what is now wanted as a high way, for Fred Ethrege and will have the building to the roper place in a short time. Mr. Ethrege is mak ing the building new and entirely modern and will make a very fine home for Fred. One thing about the place it will be a little large for one man, but you know there is an op portunity for him to share It with some good looking and good cook, who would admirably care for the house and Fred, as to that. No one can tell, you know. After Many Years.. Some thirty-eight years ago, Silas Farrall appeared in the neighborhood of Greenwood, then a frontier vil lage of western Cass county and stopping at the home of Wm. Lees leys, made his home there and for Borne five years, worked on the farm, and was by the way, an excellent hand. He knew farming from the beginning to the end, and was a most trustworthy man and a first class farm hand. At the time he came to the Leesley home, W. H. Leesley, better known as Harry, was a mere lad of some five years. Mr. Farrall was a tutor to Harry In farm ing and it was from this gentleman that Mr. Leesley got his first instruc tion in the art of agriculture. After some six years on the farm, the scene changed and MrFarrell sought other places to reside, going to Oklahoma where he resided for a number of years, living in St. Louis for a time, and also he has been, making his home in Kansas. The farming opera tion in Kansas has not been as profi table this year as formerly, and Mr. Farrall hearing that the crops were good in Cass county and longing to see the places and people where and with whom he had spent the years long ago, drifted here, arriving last Wednesday, and visited at. the Lees ley home. He will pick corn in this vicinity during the picking season and return to his home in Kansas, where he has a farm. Mr. Leesley was pleased to see his old time friend. Odd Fellows and Rebekahs. The members of the I. O. O. F. and the Daughters of Rebekah, who were celebrating last week at the meeting of the grand lodges of the order at Beatrice, returned during the latter portion of the week and were well pleased with the very suc cessful meeting which was had. The one thing "which they might have wished different was that the larger accommodations might have been had as the buildings were, while very specious, not large enough for the throngs of Odd Fellows and Rebek ahs who were there. The local mem bers at Beatrice extended every courtesy as also did all the city but the meeting was much bigger an affair than had been anticipated and it was with difficulty that they w'ere able to cope with the situation.

The rooster which has been on diet for some time and was allowed to eat his fill at the Radio Circus held at the store of White & Bucknell on last Saturday, was well satisfied when he had eaten 255 kernals of corn and refused the tempting mor sels after that.

Found the Trouble For some time past something has been interfering with the best work ing of the radios of Manley and vicin ity, but just what it was was not known until the electric company noticed a leak in their power lines, and this caused them to send an ex pert trouble seeker, who came and after having gone over the lines care fully, discovered a leaky lightening arrestor, which when replaced by a new one, stopped the electrical dis turbance in the radios. Royal Neighbors Hustling The members of the Royal Neigh bors of Manley last week were mak ing a drive for funds, they having a meeting and also sending out invita tions asking the ladies to whom they sent the invitations to send in their waist measure in inches, in so many cents. This would indeed be a fine way to raise funds where all the ladies were good and robust. The invitations which they sent out read as follows: ' This neat little apron is sent to you; And this is what we wish you'd do: The little pocket you plain ly see For a special purpose is meant to be; Now measure you waist line inch by inch, And see that the measure does not pinch! For each small inch you measure round. In the pocket, put a penny sound. The game is fair, you will admit You waist your money; we pocket it. At the bottom of this unique an nouncement there also appeared. the following: "Lots of fun and good eats, Oct. 24th, 2 p. m., at hall."
