But we're not a bit tired. Public office is a public trust in which the public does all of the trusting. We're told to remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy, but in looking around us we're forced' to the conclusion that there are too many holes already. Fortune knocks at every man'3 door, but it doesn't carry the key. Everything uncommon attracts immediate attention even a deadbeat paying his debts.

You. may be surprised to know that a certain well to do man of this town allowed the collection plate to be passed in church last Sunday without dropping In even a penny. He was'nt there. One man is always courteous to another when he wants a favor. When a man punches you on the nose what do you do? Wipe the blood off.

of course. Some men are such inveterate old smokers in this world it won't bother them in the next. We can't understand why 'they call 'em booze runners when most of 'em ride in automobiles and the thirsty do the running. If a word to the wise is sufficient be brief when you talk to us.

If the Missouri Public Service Commission sustains the Kansas City Southern Railway Company in assenting to the demands made by its representatives at a hearing held at the courthouse in Harrisonville, Saturday, Oct. (i, 1923, West Line, located in the extreme western part of Cass county, near the Kausas line, will be without depot service. And this, in spite of the fact that up to about a month ago they were receiving service from two railway organizations, between whom st hey could' choose to suit their own convenience. The trouble started when, about the first of September, the Katy railway, which maintained and operated a depot in West Line, deciding that they could get along without an agent there withdrew their agent and closed their depot, leaving the inhabitants of that community to do their express and shipping business with the agent Of the Kansas City Southern, whose depot is located about one and one-quarter mile from town. The Kansas City Southern then, following the lead of the Katy people, appealed to the Missouri Public Service Commis-sin, asking that they, also, be allowed to close their depot and dispense with their agent atWesLine.

The public Service Commission, deciding that the people of West Line community were entitled to some consideration in the matter, called a hearing at Harrisonville, for Saturday, October 6, which was held before Commissioner R. H. Musser last Saturday. Much testimony on both sides of the case was 'given, and all of this was recorded by Miss E. L.

West, stenographer for the Public Service Commissidn, to be transcribed and placed before the Commission when the matter is taken up by 'them, as a body, for final settlement, which will be about two months hence. It is to be hoped that West Line, which is an important little community center, and though its population is only 165, serves a large territory in Western Cass, will not be entirely deprived of depot service, as the necessity of such service is plainly evident, and thgy would leceive a sad blow in having it taken from them.
