More are becoming interested, and the more members we nave tlie more interesting our literary will be, as is generally tlie case. The subject debated on: "Resolved that Women sheuld have equal rights as Man, or slum Id he allowed to vols," was riecid ed by the judges, in favor of the affirm' stive. The subject for debate for nest Monday evening is: Resolved that Art is more becoming to the eye than Nature. Come everybody. On our recent visit to Olen last week we found everything going aleng nicely in the school rooms in districts No. 1 and 19. Miss Cora L Sowers is doing good work, and as this is her first school, too much praise can't be given her, and may site continue in the school work. Miss Elizabeth Harris is doing good work in the scliool room, and we found her in her place in the Sunday School on Sunday. Such teachers as she can't help but be successful and ws know the people of that vicinity will long remember her labors with them. We were pleased to see the Sunday School going on and that it is only an ever-green Sunday Scliool by the faithfulness of a few. The Supt. Mr. CA. Puddy, says there wit) be special exercises on Easter Sunday; so all sliould try and be there. We thank the people of Olen for the kind and generous spirit in which tbey received us while among them. We have made arrangement with the publishers of tlie Young People's Weekly one of the heat periodicals of its class, so tint we can furnish said paper in connect ion with tlie Press-Journal each one year for the ems 1 1 sum of tl.25 for both papers or t-i those in arrers on subscription who will pay what they owe and 33 cents extra w will sen Mm Young reouw s Weekly one year.

There has been but lit tle enow there all winter, and stock have not suffered as tbey nave 00 the higher land. The price of land is, high, and there is a town about every ton miles, so it makes it quite convenient, so far as towns go. We predict a bright future for this valley unless something turns up that will rob them of their abundant supply of water. We were favorably impressed with the town of Mitchell, aod her schools are very good. Her paper, "The Index," is published by Mr. O. B. Mark, and gives list news 10 a brie and concise manner. We found a welcome hand from all, and if we conclude to re- move from Harrison we will be tempted to settle in Mitchell. READ IT THROUGH. TwsuM Spell This Stery te Tell It In the Headline . To use an eighteenth century phrase, this is an "e'er true tale." Having hap- psoea in a sman Virginia town in ine winter of 1903, it is a story very much of the present. Up to a short time ago Mrs. John E. Harmon, of Haifa Station, Va., had no personal knowledge of the rare curative properties of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. "Last January," she ys, "my baby took a dreadful cold and at one time I feared she would have pneumonia, put one of my neighbors told me now mis remeay nan eurea her uuie boy and I began giving it to my baby at ooce ana n soon carea iter, a nearuiy inanR tne manufacturers of Cliamher- loin's Couh Remedy for placing so great a cure within my reach. .

Editor of Press-Joiirsal: Having read your recent article, com mentinii on the action of the ladies of Crawford, concerning this serious prob lem the saloon; I wish to congratulate vou for the noble stand you have taken for their encouragement, and also for so bravely exposing list awful and direful influence of tin saloon.' As you state a great roaoy citizens uphold the aaloou on account of financial support for the schools, but if we observe closely, that element is usually that so isalled honor able class, who tho,' they may not be habitual imbibers, are not too noble to enter these dens of iniquity and mingli with the rough element, where they would he abashed if their actions were disclosed to their wives. We admire men who will stand boldly and firmly for the right, and upon these the rights and prosperity of our nation rests. We pray and hope that the rising generation, who have learned through science, the evils of intoxicants, aad besides can see the results of expense and misery, will profit by the sad experience, and rise up in a srlid phalanx against this horrible Demon Intemperance, and wrest from him this power he has swayed for centuries But we must not sit idly dreaming, awaiting this happy time, while the Monster slays his millions, but . t... 1 awake as the wives and daughters of Crawford are doing, and help to forward the good work. I extend mv heartfelt thanks to the editor and also sincerest interest and encouragement to the ladies of Crawford, in their earnest endeavor. May God in his wisdom strengthen them and crown their efforts with success. A sealous Wyoming Friend of Temper ance. 8. If some ef our good Wyoming Republican editors would choose nobler topics than censuring Christianity and magnifying slander, the world would be wiser and better. Breezes from Glen.

March 4th. 1908. When we read of howling blizzards, uid the mercury dropping to 0o below zero. We feel that we are very comfortable if our winter does seem to last a long time. Our Ueoember snow has not gone yet, but it is a going, and tlie air feels quite I spring like, and balmly; though only I four days ago it was 80 be low zero. Nearly as cold as we have had it this winter. Still no wind, and I think Clio will have to visit us, and enjoy the heavenly calm, with us. We are told that the wind blows in the spring, but we have not seen it yet. We are begin ng to see spring mud however, and it is both deeper, and sticker than any thing Sioux Co. has to show. We suspect it will be worse, instead of better as the frost has hardly begua to come out of the ground. Roy whose experience has been limited to north-west Nebraska, groans as he makes his daily trips to school. He will doubtless know more of the nature of mud before spring is over It is raining tonight which sounds more spring like. Last Sunday we got to Sun- day-scheol again, after three months absence; first on account of Mr. Rice s sickness, and then because our team was awav. The friendly greetings made us feel quite at home; and have realized that Christians are the same in Colorado as 111 Nebraska, and can not fail to be at home among them.

Chris Christian brought his cattle home from his ranch in Albany Co. tlie first of this week. He had lost quite a n'imber with a. disease resembling spinnl menin gilis, and thought it best to move them. Mr. Church Sr. and son Hial, sold their cattle, 225 head to C. B.

They moved them during the blizzard of two weeks ago and lost several head on the road. rjn last Sunday the thermometer rose tov,, nfMl tU ,oow noftoned quite a bit; m ril;u-es water stood in ouddles. but it is ' ' hard to tell what may yet come as at the present writing the indications are favorable for more snow.

The music, dance, and supper was enjoyed by all present. I did not attend, but sUte what was reported of it. Please Mr. Zekiel we did not say Mr. Bert Black was a darkey.

Mr. Tom Plunkett, from War Bonnet, was a welcome visitor at Mr. Tom Jones' last week. He came Sunday morning and staved and visited school Monday lie spoke very high I v of the work that was done while here and thought the school should be complimented for the good order and interest shown in each recitation. We know vie have a good scliool here and that thorough work being done in all the common branches, and high school studies as well. You scarcely ever llnd a school where one teaclier teaches so many difficult studies as she does here withvut extra pay. The 9Lh aud 10th grade studies that are being taught here are viz: Rhetoric, general history, algebra, (elementary and ad vane ed,) natural philosophy, boiat.y & etc. so you may know that tlie teacher is kept busy. We are proud that our school is making such advancement and feel thai when the pupils are put to test ttiat they can cope with anyone the same grade elsewhere. Buds and Blossoms, War Bonnet Topics.
