Not half the people in Red Cloud are
aware of the work that is being done
by G. V. Argabright, the artist. It
will pay anyone to visit his studio and
see the many products of his labors.
One of the most remarkable pictures
in his sludio is a painting of a cyclone
cloud in uction, a reproduction of a
photograph taken at Smith Center,
Kansas. There are also many fine
specimens of portrait work that do
credit to the artist's skill. There is
no occasion for anyone to go away
from Red Cloud to secure beautiful
paintings and life-like portraits while
Mr. Argabright makes his home here.
Rev. Honeywell, the evangelist, is
not so tolerant of crying babies as
are the local preachers. Whenever a
baby in the audience tunes up the
preacher stops in the middle of a sen
tence, or wherever he happens to be,
and waits until the mother takes the
hint and lugs the infant outdoors.
This is more trying to tne nerves of
the audience than are the squalls of
the Innocents, as It directs attention
to the noise and creates a feeling of
pity for the mother who is thus singled
out and compelled to get up and
leave the meeting. Of course it Is
very annoying to the preacher to bo
disturbed by crying babies, but many
mothers must either tukc their babies
or remain at home, and in this matter
we are on the side of the mother and
baby every time.
