Mr. Leas spent Sunday with her people We feel terribly humilated here at Sedan. It seems that during the wet and dry campaign in our county last fall, that some children in the first grade at Au burn made brags to the others in their class that Sedan would go dry if no other town in the county did, for their fathers and mothers were raised here, and they could vouch for the morality of the place. Last week, thrde of the children who had had such faith in Se dan, were visiting in our community, As it happened, one ol our young men took two teaspoonsful of horse lini ment for cough syrup by mistake Soon he began to act very queer, and his wife and neighbors became very much concerned.

After sitting still longer than a child generally sits still, one little fellow said "I thought Sedan was a dry town."

He said that it didn't mean as much now as formerly to join a church, and in comparison the lodge voted who should be its members after appointing a committee to investigate the character of the applicant, although the committees were not always particular in their findings.

His argument showed that the lodge could not be expected to take' the place of the church as it did not take an individual one step nearer the of God.
