DROWNS IN LAKE
Henry Jerome the 17-year-old son of
Rev. and Mrs. I. W. Martin of Balko
was drowned Thursday of last week
when in company with some other boys
he.had gone for a swim. A large dry
lake near Balko bad been filled with
many feet of water during the recent
heavy rains and the boys had gone for
a swim in it. Young Martin did not
know how to swisa so took along an
auto inner tube and plaeing it about
his waist2dived into the water. Thi
tube slipped oft when he struck the
water and he went down. His com-
panions were unable to rescue him and
before help could be secured life was
extinct.
"'. A feminine charm. For

Jumped down and was communing
with himself in terras of confidential
lirofanlty concerning tho ruined tire.
' Then opening tho door ho an-
nounced that this was tho last stop.
"Sorry" he said 'Lot I got no spare
tire and if I had I'd need half nn hour
to mnko tho change. Now I'll havo to
wait for tho repair car."
A prey to vnguo mistrust Lydla got

wet asphalt ; to tho north the plaza was

stranger In Now York" With a pang
feho realized how fatal such an admis-
sion might prove.
But hqr chauffeur was a prosaic soul
who had never chartered his car to a

Now York for tho overseas Immigrant.

tcsponded with a disgusted Jerk re-
storing the "flag" to perpendicular.

NOTICE TO BREEDERS OF PURE BREDS
JQat&
OWNERS PURE BRED LIVESTOCK MEET
County Agent J. F. Newsom be-
ing In touch with the owners of pure
bred live stock in Beaver county
nnd realizing the need of tho organ-
ization of such cnllcd n meeting for
purpose of organization at the court
house Beaver July 28 nt which
time n temporary organization was
effected. P. II. Sebastinn of Gray
and W. L. Garrett of Eimwood were
elected temporary officers and a
committee was appointed consisting
at Messrs Chas. Eyer M. A. Shuler
E. Slocum T. L. Ogilvie M. A. Dunn
and County Agent J. F. Newsom on
constitution and by-laws. The
meeting was attended by men from
nil parts of the county about forty
being present and a splendid spirit
of enthusiasm was manifest which
was accelerated by an appropriate
address by Rev. L. L. Shnw of Beaver
and spirited talks by a number of
others. The meeting adjourned to
meet again August Jl at the court
house at which time an nil day ses-
sion was held with a profitable ex-
change of views. A constitution was
adopted which is believed to be the
best of its kind for in it is incorpo-
rated the cream of a number of cons-
titutions of similar organisations in
other counties of the state and else
where. Permanent officers elected
at this meeting were: P. H. Sebas
tian Gray President; E. Slocum
Balko secretary-treasurer; W. G
Parker Knowles vice-president; T
W. Gray Gray; Chas. Eyer River-
side; M. A. Shuler Gray; L. D. Crav-
ens Mocane; 0. D. Nickel Liberal
Kansas board of directors. The
name adopted was "Beaver County
Pure-Bred Livestock Association."
Membership is to consist of persons
in Beaver county owning one or
more pure-bred animals whether it
be horses cattle hogs chickens etc
All such are desired and are hereby
solicited to associate themselves with
this organization for mutual protec
tion benefit and for the purpose of
making a united pull for a greater
Beaver county. No agricultural
country ever develops very far in
advance of its livestock industry and
pure-bred livestock always wins
elsewhere and the sooner Beaver
county citizens get that fact captur-
ed the sooner will the county come
into her own. The men behind this
organization have gotten the vision
and results are sure to follow the
efforts they are putting forth.
The Association meets again in
"Our Soldiers."
The following Is a Hit of thoae who

ties large and delicious. Mr. Dana

bushels of this Hue fruit but none for
sale. The orchard in which they are
grown Is a sight worth seeing; In fact
Mr. Dunn's entire farm Is one of the
best In the Logan vielntty. We great-
ly appreciate the flee fruit presented
