Adams, famous author, playwright, traveler and soldlor, re cently completed a motor tour from Whitehall, Mich., to Santa Darbaru, Cat., and It proved so interesting that ho could not restrain himself from writing a letter about it. His lettor is directed to Ray Long, editor ot tho Cosmopolitan, in which his fascinating short Btorlcs are now appearing. He writes: ,'Onco fifteen yeuro ago when 1 fol lowed tho Santa Fo Trail on horse back, tho principal objects of interest adjacent to tho beaten track were, tho skulls, vortebrac, ribs and other re pair parts of cattle. Now after traver sing tho samo ground by motor, my principal momory is of almost equal ly numerous abandoned automobiles, somo burled, some overturned, others smashed and looted. There must bo a story in each one. "It was a luxuriously upholstered high-powered four-cyllndor Dodge nrothors' opon face caboose as did tho trick. No repairs, no adjustments, al most no gasoline. Kept perfect time all tho way. Short whcelbase, handy in mountain passes. Car -would meet itself on somo of tho turns." Mr. Adams leaped Into fnmo sever al years ago us tho author of "The Time, the Placo and tho Girl," and "A Stubborn Cinderella" and other musi cal comedies. Ono of his songs, "I Wonder Who's Klsslnc Her Now?" Is probably known by nearly everybody In tho world. "If your Americanism wabbles the least bit, tho medicine is a trip from uuuai u) coast oy nutomoDiie. In no other way enn you re.allzo tho tre mendous extent of the land you own its breadth, its heights, and tho depth of Its mud, especially In Oklahoma. Also advise crossing Glorleta Pass, Now Mexico, by winter moonlight If you don't slip you will carry away a insiing iimn." "Down tho Trull to Homo Sweet Homo" is quo ot those songs which are enjoyed by both young and Old. l'or snlo for any make of machlno at Dixon's yMualc Shop, Manager II. J. Rathman, of tho J. C. I'onncy Storo, roturned yostorday from thu southern part ot tho County whore ho wont after a man who gavo him n fraudulent check. It Is reported that tho man went Into tho Ponngy Storo, bought ton or twelve dollars worth of merchandise nnd offorcd a check for thirty iIollarH in payment. Cash was given to Mm for the difference. .Tho chock was worthless. At tho samo time a. check for a llko amount was passed out to tho Platto Valloy Stato Rank. Mi. Rathman apprehended tho man and had htm placed In tho local jail whero chargos will probably bo filed against him this morning. This prac tice Is too common during thoso times to allow it to pass unnoticed and swift and cortu'n action should follow cnclil tiispovereu auompi. OUR (JHITICS "Woo unto you when all men shall speak well of you." Somo criticisms aro compliments. Wo then know Ave are standing. Xor what Is right, If the world found" rib fault with tho church, it would show that tho church was not standing hor ground, Tho church expects criticism frpm certain quar ters, cortaln elements, but such criti cisms aro not a reproach on the church. "A man's vlrtuos aro advor tlaod by what his onomlea say about him." Tho samo Is truo of tho church. Many of her worst critics aro unwit tingly paying hor compliments. Tho Church ot Jesus Christ stands for what Is REST in tho community. It bolloves in righteousness In tho ed ucational, business, social, civic null homo llfo In tho community. Her on omlea may Blandor hor, but tho church moves on tho ono outstanding guard ot truth and righteousness In tho world. If .you do not attend any church' como to THE CHURCH OF THE OPEN DOOR next Sunday nt either cloven or eight. Tho robod choir will sing. Thoro is room for all. You will bo welcome.
