An interesting feature of our com-
ing State lair will be the Old State
days, when one day will be specially
devoted to the former inhabitants of
an older state- Those of us who have
lived around considerably will have a
chance for several celebrations. This
feature of the fair is unique, and at
the same time will have more mtertst
for some of our citizens than any
other part of the program.
One could travel the country over
and find no more ideal spot in U’hich
to live than out own Capitol Hill.
One can see the country for miles
around dotted with farmhouses and
growing orchards, with golden grain
fields and rows of waving corn all
glistening in the sunlight; and when
night comes the many lights of the
city make a view like fairyland.
1 he breeze is always blowing here
to temper the heat of the sun and the
green grass growing everywhere is a
relief to the eye w ith its cool, velvety
shade,
Is it any wonder that, since people
are finding out all these things, houses
are springing up on every hand..
And as the city grows larger, the
dust and smoke and heat get more
unbearable every year, and those who
are compelled to spend the day they
are glad of a home away from al
these things, where the cool breeze
brings rest and refreshing after the
day is over. It is no wonder our
houses are all occupied, and the vacant
lots, where a few years ago fhe town
cows and ponies held undesputec
sway, are being filled with residences
that are commodious and modern.
With the completion and improve-
ment of another car line, and an In-
ter-Urban line established, will come
larger opportunities for others to see
Complete Surprise.
On Wednesday evening as we were
arranging tubs, boilers and etc, for
washing to begin early next morning,
a churn of cream was placed on our
porch, we had not ordered such and
as we had noticed young people and
children gathering at a near neighbors
we said, “i suppose you are mistaken
u'e have not ordered any cream, it
must be for Mr. Robinson, over there”
“No” said he, “this is the Baptist
3astor’s house isn’t it?” we said “yes”
quick.y finished drawing water to
go over and tell our neighbor his cream
was at our home, but just then the
crowd poured into our home all full of
smiles and good cheers. I mean they
came in about as long as they could
well get in, the house was full the
porch was full and the children play-
ed in the yard. There were friends
from the middle age down to young-
er than our little son. This was verv
pleasant
When a bee goes into her hive and
and comes out again we find she has
deposited her honey. So each friend
had a bundle when they came and
when they were gone, we found they
tad left all ot their bundles. There
was meat, flour, potatoes, sugar, cof-
fee, canned and green fruit, preserves,
jelly pickle, a silver dollar, etc. etc.
Soon the evening passed and all
were gone home but we are enjoying
the recolections of this pleasant even-
ing and the good things left.
Many thanks to the many kind
friends for a most pleasant evening
full of smiles and good cheer and
highly appreciated their donations for
the pantry.
Welcome to our home at any and
all times one at a time or as many as
will come. We highly appreciate our
friends
