From the compliments that we hear on the streets by local Masons, we feel assured that a general good time was had Tuesday evening of this week, when Chetopa Lodge conferred the Master Mason degree upon James I. Wester. Chetopa Lodge No. 73 was here thirty five, strong. A number from Coffeyville, and several visiting brethern from other Masonic Lodges, over the States were also in attendance, bringing the total number to about one hundred.

Jesse R. Sigsbee of Keystone Lodge No. 102 from Coffeyville who is one of the most active Masons in this part of Kansas and who has seen and heard a goodly number of degrees conferred by various lodges over the country, certainly paid Chetopa Lodge No. 73 a very high compliment as to the of their work, and especially to Worshipful Master Edmundson.

With the attractive title, "When Do We Eat? in which beautiful Enid Bennett, as Nora, plays the leading part in this Paramount picture to be shown at the Liberty theatre Saturday night. This is a story of the middle west and opens with'a disastrous experience in the history of a traveling Uncle Tom show. The show stranded and the sheriff came in and arrested the whole company just as little Eva is going up to Heaven on a white sheet. She slaps the hayseed official, makes her escape in a box car, and when a tramp enters she jumps off at small town, falls into a romance, head off a bank robbery, restores to the bank $300 her lover, the cashier loses in a poker game. This is the funniest show in months and you should not miss it.

Farm profits for 1921 will be controlled by just three elements: The weather, hard work and good seed.

The first is fairly certain to be in your favor. The second is yours to control but the third, good seed, is uncertain unless our farmers make the most careful seed tests. In past years seed testing has been looked upon a as meaning better prices. This year seed testing will largely determine farm profits. Citizens State Bank Edna, Kansas.
