Frank E. Byron The Art Store 15 South Main Street. "We Frame Pictures." That there will be fully 104) out-of-town visitors here tomorrow to attend the big Sunday school meeting is the belief expressed today by the leading Sunday school workers of Fort Scott. It appears almost certain that if the weather is fair a large number will attend, as word has been received from over the country that many are coming in. The following number of visitors are known to have arranged to come in from different communities: KedfieJd 6.

Mount Oram 2. Berlin 1. I Bionson 15, Fulton 8 and Gilfillan 7. I The chief attarction3 for the meet- ing will be the speakers. Mrs.

Lillian Mitchner of Laurence, president of State C. T. and John Alexander of Chicago, superintendent cf the department of the International Sunday School Association Mrs. Mitchner and Mr. Alexan- ably plan and contractors to carry out work well and cheaply.

The man who wants to build for himself or for bona-fide tenants can buy to tasting advantage, as all future rents or loans will necessarily be based upon the low valuations now available and investments so made will yield proportionately higher permanent returns. THE if uer will speak at the Presbyterian church tomorrow night. The meeting will be open to the public. Tomorrow at 12:15 p. m.

the Sunday school workers will give a dinner at the Y. M. C. A. for the business of the city, and following this dinner Mr.

Alexander will talk on the subject of "Boy Conservation." At 6:15 o'clock tomorrow evening a banquet will be given at the Y. M. C. A. tor the executive officers of the Sunday schools cf the county.

It is expected that there will be a large crowd at ttis banquet and many o' the superintendents, secretaries and treasurers of the different Sunday Schools will no doubt be here. Following the banquet Mr. Alexander will speak on "The Administration of Sun day School Work."

The quality of the products of any given creamery or butter factory depends on the quality of the poorest i-ream or milk that is received at that factory to a considerable extent. If among the patrons there is one who neglects to keen his milk things clean, who fails to properly clean his hand separator, who allows his milk to absorb foul odors, the product of that farm will affect the products of all the wtll managed farms that tell to the same factory.
