The Reveille-New Era from Hill City, Kansas • 1

Vol. XXXIII No. 16 Hill City, Graham Obituary. Mrs. Hannah Boyd Kline, wife of Charles Kline of Allodium township, died September 11, .1916, age 69 years, 6 months and 9 days.

The deceased was born and reared in Clarion County, Pennsylvania. At the close of the Civil war she married Charles Kline, a Pennsylvania soldier, and soon afterwards the young couple joined the procession of pioneer folks seeking homesteads in the free lands of the west, Mr. and Mrs. Kline followed the, then usual emigrant route by boat down the Ohio and Mississippi to St. Louis.

Thence they proceeded to Harrison county Missouri, where they lived for some years and where several of their older children were born. They also sojourned in Jewell and Smith counties in this state, for a time and in 1878 settled in Allodium township, Graham county, on the land which has been their family homestead ever since. Mrs. Kline's lot for the full half century of her married life was the, familiar one of the. pioneer wife and mother, sharing her husband's burdens, devoted to her family, and until failing health The High Price of Paper.

The Kansas City Star, in common with other newspapers, has been forced to raise his subscription price. The high rate of paper, ink and all material is the reason assigned for this raise. Yet, we note that a few people object to a raise of 50 cents a year on their home newspaper. We are forced to raise the price of the Western Times from $1 00 per year to $1 50 per year on January 1st. Only a very few of our subscribers objected to this raise, but a few did.

One old subscriber whom we have in mind just now, came in and stopped his paper. He said he couldn't afford the 50 cent raise, although this man had grown rich in Wallace county. He said the paper existed a dozen years ago at $1 00 per year and that $1.00 per year was enough now. At the same time this man was selling cows for $75 per head that brought him only $12.50 a few years ago. Everything produced on his farm was equally high and his bank account was swelled by the high prices of his live stock and farm products.

But he wanted the little home paper at the same old price, although he admitted that everything the printer used in producing the paper had doubled in price. Consistency, thou art a jewel. Western Times. They Have No Issue. The Republicans, this year, are without an issue, both in the State and Nation.

Because of this the voters are not much enthused over the Republican ticket. This is the information received by Hubert Lardner, chairman of the Democratic State Central committee. For many years the Republican candidates have gone before the voters with a long list of promises and pledges, a3 to what they would do if elected and then forgot them as soon as the election was over. This year they do not seem to be so successful, as the Voters are demanding that every candidate make specific statements as to what he would do and will do. These statements will not be forthcoming as the Republican candidates do not declare themselves on the real issue of the campaign.

Both Hughes and Capper are evading every important public question. Both are making a long list of charges with the hope of throwing the voters off from the things they want to know. Both are trying the sympathy game, Neither has any substantial reason for expecting the voters to support them, and they know it. Thus their only hope is to win by deceiving the voters. This year the Democrats are going to compel them to make a stand.

Arthur Capper has a long list of broken promises, which he made to the people two years ago, not only the failure to carry out the provisions of the Republican platform, but the fifteen distinct and separate pledges he personally made to the voters. Even this year his party platform, but the fifteen distinct and separate pledges he personally made to the voters. Even this year his party platform declared for preparedness. Hughes declared for it; Capper was against it, but he is running upon the Republican platform supporting Hughes -now where does Capper stand? In U's tnorium. A.

Rest on, dear mother-your cares are o'er Your willing hands can work no more, On earth there is grief; in Heaven rest; They miss you most who loved you best. But when you breathed your last farewell The blow meant more than words can tell.

All we who linger only know, How much we lost when you passed away.

CARD OF THANKS. To those who so kindly aided us in the sickness and death of our dear mother, Mrs. Katherine Osterloh, we thank you. The Osterloh Family.

Requiring every man to carry a license if he wishes to hunt or fish, or run an auto, or do any of a dozen other thing3, inspires the Hutchinson News to remark that if a man should get good enough to go to Heaven, and had the chance, some one would propose a license to admit him. And they'd want to have him tagged and plastered over with evidences that he had paid the fee and was right up to the minute in the requirements of the law, before they'd have him make his appearance before Saint Peter. and strength curtailed her activities, she was a peculiarly kind, considerate and helpful neighbor, especially in sickness and misfortune. Mrs. Kline was brought -up in the Presbyterian faith.

After her marriage she transferred her membership to the Church, cf the Disciples, of which denomination she remained a modest, sincere and consistent christian all her life. Just a pioneer woman, wife and mother was Mrs. Kiine, with all the humble but supremely essential qualities for home building and home making in a new coun-try-of that meek but enduring stock whose seed shall inherit the In the wide circle of those who mourn her departure, those of her immediate family are her husband, her sons, William, James, Samuel, Frank and Warren and her daughters Mrs. John S. Dawson, Mrs.

Edward Teel, Mrs. Joseph Winter and Mrs. Chalmer Teel, all well-known allodium township folks of the past or present. The last two or three years of her life, Mrs. Kline suffered from the complication of ailments that finally caused her death, but her afflictions were much assuaged by the filial ministrations of her children and grandchildren and loving and beloved she ended her pilgrimage, satisfied with her life's work here and confidently and trustfully she passed to the life beyond.

Kline and Family. An Old Song in New Words Backward, turn backward, time in thy flight, give us a girl with skirts not so tight; give us a girl whose charms many or few, are not exposed by too much peek-a-boo; give us a girl, no matter what age, who won't use the street for a vaudeville stage, give us a girl not too shapely i view, dress her in skirts the sun can't shine through. And give us the dance of days gone by, with plenty of clothes and step not so high; but the turkey trot capers and buttermilk slides, hurdy gurdy twists and wiggle tail glides, and other such bunny hugs all on a level, as products of hell inspired by the devil; and let us feast our optics once more on the pure, sweet woman of the days of yore. Yes, time turn backward and grant our request for God's richest blessings but not undressed. Ex.

Origin of "Printer, Devil" In early days printing was styled the "black art" and printers were supposed to be in league with Satan But it was in the time of Aldus Manutius, in Venice, that matters took a serious turn. This was the famous printer who first published the Greek and Roman classics. He took into his employ a negro boy who was homeless on the streets of Venice. The people supposed the boy was an imp of Satan andjhelped in the printing. Mobs collected about to wreck the building when the boy was brought forward and exhibited, and it was shown that he was flesh and blood, but, he wa3 still called the "printer's devil," and every boy in his po sition ever since has been so called.

Quite a few of the neighboring towns were represented at the Eschman circus here Monday. CARD OF THANKS. We wish to express our grateful appreciation to all the friends who rendered so many acts of kindness and assistance during the illness and death of our beloved husband and father, A. J. Lovelady.

And to the comrades of the G. A. R. and other friends who gave such lovely floral offerings, we are very grateful. Mrs.

A. J. Lovelady and Family. Dissipating College Student! Fast Disappearing. (By Dr.

George Harris.) The college student who drinks, swears and smokes is rapidly becoming a relic of the past. Instead, we have undergraduates who are vitally interested in the great Issues of the day. The common belief is that the college student's notions of right and wrong are sadly twisted. Quite to the contrary, it is found that the great majority of students act under a very high ethical standard. Drinking, immorality, boasting are all swiftly disappearing from college life, and in their stead are growing up a reverence for and interest in religion.

Religion formerly was shunned. Students would not talk about it. Now a student boasting of his unbelief, challenging Christianity, would be considered a callow, silly fellow. College men are primarily truthful; whatever their faults, they will not tell lies. The ideal of the college man is that of the No president since Lincoln has had to handle such complex problems "as President Wilson has been confronted with.

He has kept you out of war. He stopped the railroad strike. Financial, agricultural and labor legislation of his administration stands as a great monument to work well done. Do you want to make a change? Sowing wheat i3 on in full blast..
