returning to pcp uar Popular favor means that they are chosen by the parents The babies who use them are not consulted in the matter But dealers believe the name was the Jonah killed the vehicles of this type ten years ago they are not coming back under the name of baby buggies want a baby tbt to it oh the mar ket how you ask Cor a baby gon dola The baby gondola which is the latest word in baby transportation construction work has more acces sories than an motor car It has an chassis if that term can be applied to the run ning gear of a baby carriage It has low wheels an emergency brake and some of the bodies The body of the carriage of the gon dola type is a basket is made of fine wicker or and in color is brown shellac gray or ivory The upholstering is corduroy matching the basket in color The gondola types have a one man top built of rattan willi upholstering The lop long as the gondola and is ad to any height or angle above the gondola The shorter types have a top that resembles the top on a very squally bowlegged runabout It is a far cry from the baby buggy to the gondola The oldtimer was built with metal wheels and was built high from the so that there was a maxi mum of squeak and discomfort for baby The natural ages were increased by curled springs The body was built of board and wicker with gewgaws and curli cues to catch dirt The carriage generally was upholstered in a bril liant green and was equipped with a collapsible silk sunshade built for service and under fav if there were not too many buggy might be depended upon for the use of an family The baby buggy declined in pop when collapsible came and Emporia dealers who had deall in futures were caught with 11 large slock of able baby buggies on hand cart in the collapsible types served until whon gondola which Is a name for the old baby buggy came back The man who pronounced the Kansas poach crop dead should havo been in Emporia last Friday when tho town was filled with girl solo isls girl violinists and girl glee club bists hero for the music contests held during the Normals festival Emporia has girls and pretty girls and more pretty girls and girls who arc still prettier the fact that Emporia is in Kansas has a Normal School a College and a Business College to draw he pick of the Kansas peach crop to Emporia But Iho bulk of pretty girls are students and when they come to town or shortly they learn to wear Emporia clothes and toward they have a good deal of a sameness in their appearance So it was a pleasure lasl week lo look up on the rugged cornfed girls who Hocked Into for the music festival They were re splendent with new and were plump with mothers cooking and there was not a skinny or a girl in tho bunch They were a sight and sight was none the less refreshing because they were in town on a cold windy day willi the north wind whistling merrily through those Easter clothes Girls are a good deal like lowers The hot house kinds go until the wild lowers bloom and night and thank you for your kind Emporia has the hot kind with her always and for reason tho girls who come in the time of spring fes tival make a joyful occasion for this staid old town TUTS BOYS IN It is to bo hoped that blue dress uniforms will be worn by tho mem bers of the Emporia company of the Kansas National Guard who will take part in the parade on Decora tion Day and who will fire the vol leys over the graves of the soldiers in It is the boys in blue who are remembered on Decoration Day and to those living all memories are of men who fought and who died in uniforms of blue Those who died are remembered as they were in their blue uniforms and whether they died buried on the years afterwards the were associated with the Union men of the Rebellion The National Guard has an ade quate stock of the blue dress uni forms Wearing them Instead of the regulation khaki will be a little thing for the men hut it will mean much to the old boys in blue who are living and to those memories of boys in blue for whom taps has sounded John M Sterbenz of Olpe trans Acted business in Emporta A The is seri thinking of making domestic science and domestic art an optional study in Every girl who

able to hire someone to breathe for her but nevertheless she should know how to do these simple things And the statistics indicate that she will marry and go into the gen eral and fancy homemaking busi ness with staple imported cook ing as her first and most imperative job If she can cook a few simple things sweep a and make a bed she is on the success And however she may be able te gate if she can negotiate ham and she will get nearer the groat while circle of happiness than with any other equipment thata school can teach Heres lo the roy al American nerve of the Emporia school board in its new Long may it wave R O Gardner of Township has announced his inten tion of running for the Republican nomination as county clerk which is a good thing for the Republican ticket For his nomination would it Three good men are run ning for that office and one of them will be elected Mr Gard ners strength lies in fact that he was born reared and educated in the served two terms as township trustee and one term as assessor He was educated in a Topcka Business College and is a office man as well as a runner The Gazette has no desire to play favorites in this r probably will support lican county ticket in tho main with the prospect of one oC candidates running as county clork before looks as hough there was one office that willbe well filled The picnic season was opened yesterday afternoon at Sodens Grove A few hardy adventurous spirits had gone to the grove earlier in the season and attempted picnics but picnics in a cold damp atmos phere and no mosquitoes are a de lusion and a snare Yesterday was an ideal picnic day and prob ably were half a dozen In the grove last where happy townsfolk made coffee and boiled eggs and broiled steak anil and roasted eggs In the joy of the outdoors the picnickers forgot they were tired after their days work forgot or rejoiced in the fact that a big days work was before Hem to day and breathed in the fresh air and reveled in the green anJ the budding trees and fought off mosquitoes with carefree minds In getting your moneys worth there is nothing equal tp tlo pic nic at Sodens Street car transpor tation is a negligible expense an inexpensive supper easily ed the grove is reached after business hours and there is no rea son why the people whose vacations arc short or a long way off may not enjoy at a minimum of time and preparation and expense frequent pleasure exertions of this sort SOON JJE OVER The supreme test for the man who hit the glory trail during the Sco ville meetings last winter Is yet to come The man has stood the pre liminary tests his probation and mot with approval when he mildly shooed home chick ens when they broke his new garden and said nothing stronger than darn when he was cracked on the head by a joint of stovepipe dur ing the cleaning In a tew days the town cows will go to pas lure and that will bring the supreme test If the Scoville convert can sing the hallelujah songs when the brindle cow kept in tho next block waltzes through his strawberries and destroys two beds of lettuce in her joy at the coming of grass he should admitted to tho innermost circle Further is superfluous HACK TO THE Press dispatches indicate that arms used in the uprising in Ireland came from Germany U is probable the report is true nt least in part arms may have been used during the preliminary skir mishes but when the outbreak reached its height and the Irish real ly became serious and began to fight n the earnest Irish way the Ger man arms probably were abandoned for the equally effective and more familiar shillalahs and for that old Irish friend the brickbat Ger man arms were all right for the skirmishes bnt for the real business the Irish took he weapons of their kingly ancestors the the Kelleys the and the Donovans This country through its dent is asking Germany not to kill passengers on merchant ships Ger many ig replying that she cide whether or merchant warships and that when an accident as the sink ing of the Sussex a ferryboat in British Channel the passenger takes the To muddy the waters and befog the issue Germany demands with England before we settle with Ger many We shall settle with England in duo course it must always be remembered that in our settlement with England there is no question of American England lias killed no neutrals Germany has killed hundreds and in those hun dreds were scores of Americans ruthlessly slaughtered to persuade Hie world Germany is a wild beast in ibis war Naturally the country that would send out submarine and adver tise its attack on a liner like the Lu will not quit Until force makes that country quit The force may be from or it may be from in the cordon of the civilized powers draw ing a fatal noose at throat But force is the one word German imperialism understands and in the of civilization it may be necessary to use force WILSON AXI President AVilson has been serving wine to guests at While House din dinners probably The Methodists of America in their an convention him for it There are a number of things to say about President Wilson come of which may be more or less ant They will occur to They are serious major faults or temperament and training which make his occupancy of the While House for four years mere highly undesirable and which make his elec lion unfortunate if he is opposed by a man of a different and a strong er character But the fact that he serves wine or decs not serve wine is not at this time anri in view of the great questions confronting the American people a matter of major importance N Qur friends should not play peanut politics at this lar time And answering taidi A cer tain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell among thieves which stripped him of his raiment wounded him and departed leaving him half dead And by there came down n certain priest that way and when he saw him he passed by on the other Bide And likewise a whon hr was at the place came ami looked on him and passed by on the other oide But a certain Samaritan as he journeyed came whore he was and whon ho saw him he had com passion on him And went to him and bound up his wounds pouring in oil ami wine and set him on hi a own beast and brought him to inn and took care of him And on the morrow when he de parted ho took two pence and gave them to the host and said un to him Take care of him and what soever thou more when 1 come again I will repay Which now of three est thou was unto him that foil among the thieves And he said lie that shewed mercy on him Then said nn lo him Go mid do thon likewise nn K Today Dr Frank Foncannon op ened office in his fathers rooms over the Leatherberry store No young man in any profession ever came into Emporia with better equipment than Dr Frank Foncannon The College of the University of Kansas the University of vania Medical School the clinic of the at Rochester u year in the Kansas City General Hos have contributed to giving this young man a training that fits him for his profession in a splendid manner The good common sense of his father is however a better asset than his professional equip ment His inherited traits are
