Although the Board of Education voted to stand back of the first mentioned lecture course no fund is losing because of having the above amount drawn from some other source. There is to the credit of the Board of R. N. A. Notes.

Next Friday, July 27, is our next regular meeting. A committee will serve refreshments. Come! Press Cor. THE THIRY REUNION. Prominent Montlcello Township Clan Gets Together on Sunday.

A very delightful day was spent at the Will Thiry home on Sunday when forty of the "Thiry Clan" gathered there to spend the day. The honor guests of the occasion were Mr. and Mrs. Tony Thiry of Drumright, Okla. Mr.

Thiry who is the oldest brother, is a dairyman at Drumright and this is his first trip to Kansas for a number of years. Early in the morning the "clan" began gathering from all directions and in each car were baskets well filled with eats such as is found only on the farm. At noon a sumptuous fried chicken dinner topped off with ice and cake with salads galore in between, was served cafeteria style on the All of the five brothers and families were present, also the children of the only sister, Mrs. Lou Logan, who is at present visiting with her daughter at Fort Lupton, Colo. Those present were: Mr.

and Mrs. Tony Thiry of Drumright, Okla. Mr. and Mrs. Will Thiry; Mr.

and Mrs. John Thiry and daughters, Lula May and Frances of Lawrence; Mr. and Mrs. Hubert Thiry, daughter, Hazel, and sons, Wesley, Alvin and Floyd of Stilwell; Mr. and Mrs.

James Thiry and son, Lambert of Stilwell; Mr. and Mrs. Sam Beall and sons, Dewaine and William, of Grantville; Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell Thiry and son, LaVern, of Greeley; Mr.

and Mrs. Cecil Thiry and daughter, Eillene; Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Thiry and sons. Junior and Donald; Mrs.

Anna Winans, of Kansas City Mr. and Mrs. Thollie Logan, sons, John and Claude and daughters, Hazel and Marguerite, of Kansas City, the Misses Waneta and Othello Lqgan of Olatbe; and Miss Hope Waldron of Bladwin. Education in the school funds $373.36 which more than offsets this deficit. The course for the coining year of the student should be taken from the regular work of class to consid.

er these subjects? Still another thing which works toward the consuming of much time is the individual who has "A splendid address on the most interesting subject" or some local patron who has a' friend whom he or she wishes could talk to the school. They are good, as a usual thing, but again comes the question, how much time can be demanded of students for these things and which do have some real value. It is safe to say that not a week passes without a request for some consists of the following numbers: Sir Wilfred Granfell $300.00 James A. Burns 100.00 Noah Beilhay 75.00 Criterion Quartette 450.08 lons daily to the Campbell Dairy Co. of Kansas Cit.y The two weeks cheek came as we were there Friday the amount was $244.

Now what do you suppose that Father Triebel does with that check. He keeps every other one and the other he gives to the boys and girls for they do all the work connected with the dairying. Father Triebel even buys all the feed, and the cows, and the kids put their work against his investment. We call that mighty square in Mr. Triebel for in addition he furnishes all the feed except occasionally a little bran.

A mighty pretty home is that of M. D. Gleason, first house south of the Monticello Methodist church. It is a seven room stucco bungalow, five rooms down and two up. It was finished in October a year ago.

It is as modern as any town house with the exception of electric lights. And if some one does not build a line out that way, Mr. Gleason will put in a plant of his own. There are 14 houses in that vicinity which would take the service if the line should be built. Mr.

Gleason was raised as a boy on this farm, then went to Kansas City, where he was in business for 30 years, half of that time as a contractor and builder, and the remainder he had a market stall on the west side of market square. There are 216 acres in his tract, which he trucks and farms, by himself. A great deal of it is in berries and fruit. He has had to hire only one and one half days of work in one and one-half years. When most people retire, they move to town but he reversed the proceedings by retiring and moving back to the farm.

Guests of Mr. and Mrs. F. L. House Sunday, were, Mrs.

J. M. House, Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Haag, and son, Eben, Mr.

and Mrs. Eben House, and daughter, Helen, Mr. and Mrs. G. O.

Stingley, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Stingley and son, LeRoy, all of Kansas City. Total $925.00 The "Litle Symphony" of Kansas Jim Harp, who was almost electrocuted at the electric light plant, ten days ago, rode up town Thursday for the first time, and was able to walk home. His burns are getting along nicely with the exception of a very bad one on his right arm the size of a silver dollar and more than a half inch deep.

Altogether he sustained 30 burns, 11 of them on his left leg, and all within eight inches. J. S. Hartley, public utilities commissioner of Oltahe city, will re. turn the latter part of the week from Columbus, Ohio, where he has been on a short vacation.

It will take him three days to make the trip in his big Buick roadster. Mrs. Clara Julien, Kansas City, spent the week end here with rel. atives and friends.

Combining the decreased cost of On the other hand it is worth the course, the expected revival of interest in the course in the new building, new methods of advertis considering some of the incentives for better scholarship and personal initiative. The Board of Education ing, and new methods of selling tickets, it is expected that it will be a greater success than ever. Those Who Have Passed On offers a trophy for scholarship and other activities. This trophy, as should be the case, is the most coveted trophy of the whole system, as all good points must be possessed to secure It.

The Woodbury trophy, the Scriv-ner trophy, the Hastings and Allison trophies, athletic cups, the Hall Music trophy, State scholarship trophy, D. A. R. Medal, the Firestone scholarship, the Simonds Economic Essay prize and a number of other rewards are a constant incentive for collective or individual effort to do the best things.v Emphasis is being placed upon achievement of high order despite apparent distracting influences. Of the various organizations of the school which form a part of the training for future service we can only say the standard has been kept high.

Physical and moral development are 'equally rest jj The most enduring token of love and remembrance is the stone you erect to the memory of the one who has preced ed you td the great unknown When we review the courses offered the past few years and reflect that such talent is seldom brought to any community such as this we have a feeling of justifiable pride in having contributed this particular service to the Olathe community. Miscellaneous. There are so many things which form part of the every day task of the student of the present day which people, not in close touch with the school, do not know the value thereof. Life of the student is far more complex and the problems of an administration becomes increasingly difficult to sift out the unnecessary from the good.

An example of a particularly difficult problem is to decide how to distinguish between movements of real worth and fads of the moment. A glance at the calendar will disclose an increasing number cf special days which various factions of the community think should be observed. Each day has had, and may still, have some claim to observance as a day set apart but it becomes a very grave question as to whether modern methods of celebration consideration of the meaning -of the day and thereby to a growth in patriotism. A new method of bringing to the attention of the public some particular phase of a subject is to declare a week for consideration of that thing.

Some years ago our good friend, Peter Triebel, from over towards Gadrner, purchased 240 acres at the Chapman corner, about eight miles out on the Monticello road.

He and the boys are farming this, although Jonnie, the oldest boy, is farming by over on the old J. T. Nichols farm. In addition they are farming 80 acres belonging to Mr. Chapman.

It would seem like this would keep them all busy, but the three boys and two girls who are at home, are milking about 25 cows from which they sell about 80 gal and "Smile" week, "Fire prevention" week and others which must be observed or ignored. What time.
