H. S. 12 Banquet. On Monday night the ladies of the M. S.

12 entertained their husbands and gentlemen friends at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. A The fact that St. Patrick's day was Sunday made it necessary to bold the festivities on the eighteenth, but a stranger vould have thought from "the wearing of the green" that he was back in the "Ould Country" itself.

To make it all seem natural the first course that came from the kitchen was some fine large potatoes that had been boiled till their A Business Administration. Now that it has been definitely decided that the Mayor and council that have had charge of the destinies of the city for two years, will not accept another term, it is in order to call to mind a few facts in regard to the manner in which they have preformed the duties that fell to their lot. In the first place it might be well to say that no one of the present administration asked for his ffice. All their acts have been open and above board, and their splendid record is one that some of the former administrations would be proud to own.

The splendid progress of Kirwin during the last two years, tells a story of careful financial management. The many blocks and crossings of fine cement sidewalks will be an ever present memento of the good work of mayor and council. The superior moral tone of our city should be gratifying to the administration and citizens alike. Kirwin has few equals in the state in the matter of good morals, good City Election. A petition was circulated Tuesday of this weeksking the City Clerk to place the following names on the ballot for the city election April 1.

For Mayor, C. P. Barber; for Probate Judge, Samuel Dundon; for Councilman, L. H. Perkins; J.

Our churches, clubs and lodges are centers of culture and refinement around which the social interests of the city revolve, and no intelligent man who is not a moral degenerate would dare say that the morals of the city are in a deplorable condition. Those who know best are unanimous in the sentiment that Kirwin is the best town, morally and socially, of its size, in the whole country. The present mayor and council feel that they should be relieved of the great amount of hard work involved in attending to the affairs of the city in a careful and judicious manner, so, notwithstanding the fact that the whole town is practically unanimous in favor of them taking a second term, they will not be persuaded, but have signified their intention to do all that Buff Leghorn.
