Chetopa Advance from Chetopa, Kansas • Page 8

EDGAR W. CLARK. FLORENCE E. BATE Personal. THE CHETOPA ADVANCE ill 6) A Little Doggerel, it was a time of civil war, And bugle notes were heard from far.

The clans were gathered in their might, Each side declaring it was right. The one did neither fear nor flinch, The other would not give an inch. One said the school must stop instanter The other stoutly said it shan't, or We, sirs, will see what can be done If there is justice 'neath the sun. And to the council chamber went, The neighbor foes their wrath to vent. There was Mac(b)ewen his tongue in wrath, And Boon, (not Daniel) on the path; And Dan had come forth from his den, A Lyon also from its fen.

Next came Andrew's, not Peter's, son, And with her one that could hill her man. The aDgry war of words waxed hot, Worse than ten tempests in one tea pot. The president stood on hurricane deck, A General Banking North Side of Maple Street, FIEST: BUILDING LOAN ASSOCIATION Laboring men should purchase stock in this Association and thereby enable themselves to secure a HOME and pay for the same in MONTHLY INSTALLMENTS at less than they are NOW PAYING AS RENT. B.S.EDWARDS. President.

The school board had another meeting Thursday evening, of last week something after the Kilkinney cat order. The peace and quiet of that oart of the city where the meeting held was no little disturbed.

Certain parties who witnessed the seen at a safe distance says it was equal if not superior to the Noah Guymon show held in this city several years ago. It is thought that as an entertainment if it were put on the boards it would draw better than -Ten nights in a ir Room. If it were reproduced at the Opera House verbatim et 'iteratim et put it at 'im enough money could be taken in at the door to pay for the extra month's school about which there has been so much contention. At the present stage of the game there is only one word that will describe the condition of the board of education and that is Chaos. And there seems to be no light or order anywhere on the invisible horizon.

The only thing visible is the padlock on the door of the public school building. Pel haps aiter a few more upheavals, some dry land will appear, and a little light will dawn in this total darkness. FRIDAY, APR. 12. 1889.

cut dirt and run, Thinking if he should run away He'd live to fight anothei day. Just prior to the last attack A sober Drake cried quack! quack! quack At this the battle ceased to rage, The thirst for gore began to assuage. They ceased to pull each other's hair. The Lyon quietly sought his lair. In looking over the ground next day, These were the relics of the fray, A bunch of beard of reddish hue, Some ribbons torn, a hair pin or two, Some teeth upon a rubber plate, In a broken and discolored state, A toothbrush, all the brustles gone, A pocket comb, no teeth thereon, Of clothing there was many shred, Of filthy lucre, there was not a "red." Is this the plan to institute To teach "young ideas how to shoot?" Are these the ones to guide the youth In ways of wisdom, love and truth? Is this an age of cultured men, Or have we 'lapsed to heathenism again? A beautiful board of education, To care for the rising generation.

If harmony's not soon restored, They'll find the people are the bored It has been proposed on the part of some of our citizens that on all streets, Maple excepted, ten feet of land be vacated and be allowed to revert to the lots thereon, leaving the streets sixty feet wide. It would seem that sixty reet is wide enough tor all purposes except perhaps a business street, such as Maple. We do not advocate or op pose any action of this kind but merely suggest it for the consideration of our people. If any such thing is contemplated it ought to be done before sidewalks are put down very extensively so a to save labor and expense in this direction. Capt.

A. Dalby, of Faulkner, was in Tuesday growling about not getting his Advance regularly. We do not blame him for growling. He ought to growl and growl loud enough to be heard Faulkner is the first station on the Minden road north-east of Chetopa. The mail between Chetopa and that office only passes through two hands The Advance is mailed every Thursday afternoon with rare exceptions.

He ought to get it on Friday at the furthest, and yet he says he hardly ever gets it until Tuesday. We wish the Civil Service will would grind a little faster. Eelief for the Distressed. it is no wonder there are so many crazy people in the world. It was this idea that struck us she other day when we saw the crazy patch work that is being prepared by the ladies of the Relief Corps for the coming Fair Tuesday evening of next week at the Opera House.

The first and finest is the crazy Quilt that fairly makes you dizzy headed with the beautiful and ingenious touches of artistic skill displayed in every portion of it. It seems that a person would almost dream he was in paradise to sleep under this quilt. Than there is a sofa pillow, and many other ingenious contrivances in the way of fancy and toilet articles. But this is only a small teature of the program on Tuesday evening. There will be music, vocal aud instrumental, singing by a fine artist from abroad, and elocutionary exercises by a lady who bears an enviable reputation at her home.

Added to this will be a drill bv a company of young ladies. So it will be seen that the audience will be favored not only with elocutionary but evolutionary performances. Furthermore there will still be another feature thro which much pleasure may be evolved and that is the refreshment part of the program. It will also be decided uj vote who is the most charming young lady of the county, if such can be decided by a vote. The admission to the Opera House will b-j only 15 cents.
