The Lesson In It
The public disgrace of Giles
Ferris, late state printer, may be
the means of the saving of thous-
ands of other and younger men
in our state if other public offi-
cers but look the situation
squarely in the face and realize
the need immediate and de-
termined action.
Ferris did not go wrong be-
cause he is a natural born thief.
I He did not take monies belong -
| ing to the state because he was
i in need. He stole to obtain the
j means to gamble. He is suffer-
j ing with a fever that is all con-
suming in its intensity and pow-
Jer. A fever, a desire that is
| harder to resist than a thirst for
alcoholic drink. He/suffers from
a craving, a desire that is almost
equal to that of a dope fiend.
His friends received but a small
per cent of his wrongly gotten
money. The bulk of it went
into the yawning pockets of the
Oklahoma City professional
gamblers.
The lesson is there. Will the
scholars learn it? Thousands of
other men have the disease in its
incipient form, they can be sav-
ed without heoric treatment,
! without disgrace. Will the au-
jthorities give them a chance to
recover by enforcing moral sani-
i tation.
I We all pity Ferris, and we all
join in a God help the little
! brown eyed woman that was by
j him through it all. Democratic

The first elopement over the

Rupert C. Ott and Miss Grace
Manual. E. C. Ott, depot pas-
senger agent for the Atchison,
Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad,
learned of the marriage yester-
day when the 18-year-old
bride entered his office.
"'Papa, you are not angry
are you?" she asked, putting her
arms around Mr. Ott. Looking
at his son's pretty girl wife, Ott
says there was nothing for him
to do but be glad, and added
that he was proud of his daugh-
ter-in law, too Rupert is 21
years old and a linotype opera-
tor. Miss Manuel lived at 1917
East Fourteenth Street with her
parents. The wedding took
place in Excelsior Springs Sat-
urday February 1st.
Miss Manuel was a guest of
relatives several times in Ed-
mond and she has many friends
who wish for her much happi-
ness.

Planning the Garden
Now is the time to look about
for some early crop that will
bring in a little money. For
thos-e who live close to a vill.-tge
or small city the early vegetables
catches the dimes and dollars.
Even though there are many
gardens in town, there are a
great many who prefer to buy
their vegetables. In connection
with the sale of vegetables, ear-
ly plants pay a handsome divi-
dend, says a contribution to
Farm and Home.
The great thing in gardening
is to have the vegetables ready
a week or two before the' other
fellow. You not only get the
advantage of high prices at the
first of the season, but when
once a customer, if your goods
are O. K., you can hold them
throughout the season.
A quarter or half acre is large
enough to begin with. This a-
mount, if worked intelligently,
will produce an astonishing a-
mount of "truck." The piece
of ground selected for the gard-
en should be cleared of all rub-
bish or trash, such as large dry
weeds, sticks, etc, that will in-
terfere with cultivation or which
will cause the soil to lose mois-
ture.
