The local oratorical contest to choose a representative from Ottawa "university at the state oratorical contest, was held Friday night in the Baptist church. There were seven contestants and the program throughout was one of great exellence and interest. The contestants spoke to a rather limited audience, but it was one that knew where to put the applause, and that fully appreciated the eloquence showered upon it. The contest was noticeable in one particular not a single speaker forgot his "piece." The delivery of eacb, too, was marked by a certain composure and grace that showed a most careful training for the contest. Miss Irma Taber was the first speaker of the evening and her oration on "The Pursuit of Happiness" was a well considered effort.

She developed the idea that happiness depended on motives and not men; that the truest happiness comes by taking thought for others, and cited the work of Washington, Napoleon, Benedict Arnold and Lincoln to prove her arguments. She was given sixth place in the contest. "The Independent in Politics" was the theme of Mr. John Sample's oration. This was a forcible address, delivered in an eloquent manner, and in the estimation of many placed Mr.

Sample well up toward first place. The argument was for an adherence to principle rather than party, and for an independent thought that would not be controlled by political machinery. "The state is made by great men," said the speaker, "and men are great insofar as their lives are directed by deep principles. Slaves to party never can produce the highest type of government." Mr. Sample was awarded fifth rank.

"Savonarola" was the character from which Mr. John Quin drew inspiration for a splendid oration. As a literary effort Mr. Quin's oration was highly commendable. Its purity of diction and variety of thought, combined with the masterly manner of its delivery, justly entitled it in popular opinion to the rank accorded it by the judges that of first.

Miss Mitta Gage chose for her subject, "The Christian Student the Savior of this Nation," and certainly handled it in a creditable manner. She noted the fact that nations were most frequently disintegrated through internal dissensions rather than by foreign conflict, and argued that an educated citizenship was the salvation of a nation. "What could the students of America not accomplish if bound together in one army to stand for the right?" Miss Gage tied with Mr. Sample for fifth place. Mr.

Charles Barnett won second place with his oration on "The March of Civilization." He showed that nations like men are mortal, and that history revealed that national life ran in cycles. As to America Mr. Barnett took an optimistic view, and said that a proper development of the youth of the country would establish American liberty and glory. "This republic, the wonder of the earth, must live, and its union be perpetuated until the whole world reclines in the shadow of liberty." "The Ethics of the Trust" was ably discussed by R. G.

Banta. This oration was a vigorous denunciation of the evils of monopoly, and the closing words had a sturdy, patriotic ring: Wall Papers produced such satisfactory results that we will continue through June.

Americans have a genius for solving problems, and they can olve this. Tney have met every question so far and who dares say that in this question Americans will not rise to the protection of the free man and the home?" Mr. Banta was awarded fourth place. Mr. O.

C. Brown closed the contest with an excellent oration on the theme, "Man is Subject to His Birth," Mr. Brown discussed heredity and environment. He showed how these laws worked throughout all human life and that the present was the heir of the past. Heredity, environment and opportunity were the three elements in determining the worth of men.

The judges gave Mr. Brown third rank. The orations were interspersed with music during the evening. A piano solo by Mrs. Cravens, a tenor solo by Mr.

Wycoff, a contralto solo by Mrs. George Fowler, and instrumental music by Mr. Harry Reed and Miss Mary Morrow made an attractive musical pragram which was much enjoyed. The judges on delivery were Rev. F.

M. Alexander, Rev. C. S. Nus-baum and Mr.

F. M. Harris. On thought and composition they were Prof. Sutherland of Grand Island, S.

S. Hageman, of Phillipsburg, and Rev. John KjelJea, of Marion. Mr. Lambertson presided at the contest and Rev.

Kane opened the program with prayer. GET BIBLES WITHIN REACH Men Who Take Census Want People to Have Their Ancient Family History Handy. The Ottawa census takers, who began their work Friday, report that they are getting along all right, with a few exceptions. One of the exceptions is that it takes people too long to find their bibles. When the census taker asks questions about the day of the week when people were born, and inquiries about when and where parents were born it causes trouble, because nobody knows these things offhand.

Recourse is had to the family record in the bible. An Ottawa census taker says that he saw more reaching around in dark recesses for bibles Friday than he ever hopes to see again. He suggests that people have their bibles ready. One census taker said that people were anxious to have him go down town and hunt up the historian of the family who might either be down town or off fishing. The census taker isn't expected to do detective work.

None of them have time to do it. The things which ought to be done to the census taker may be summarized as follows: When he knocks at the door don't be in a hurry to let him in. He may be a book agent. Besides, the government requires him to be good natured. If you happen to have a dog turn the beast loose when the census taker comes.

He don't take a census of dogs, but it is his business to find out what sort of an establishment you keep. Besides, the dog has some rights. When you let the census taker into the house tell him he is the tenth man that has called and taken up your time with questions. Talk to him about the weather. He hasn't anything to do but listen.

When he begins to ask questions spring some joke you have read about the census taker. He has probably heard it at every other place he has called, and he will be pleased to meet an old friend. When he asks your age don't tell him. What business has he to ask such questions? Tell him you think he has bis nerve with him. That will please him, besides taking up his time.

After he gets down to the questions about ancestors, mortgages and things tell him you don't know. Tell him the ice man wants his pay at the back door. Tell him to go hunt somebody who knows about these' things, and then leave him. OTTAWA WILL CELEBRATE. Commercial Club Committee Discusses Plans for the Fourth Will Recommend Immediate Action.

A meeting of the Commercial club's trade extention committee was called at the Friday night by Chairman Esterly. The meeting was called for the purpose of discussing plans for the Fourth. It was the unanimous sentiment of the committee that Ottawa should begin at once to prepare for a big celebration. W. A.

Deford, who resigned from the Twentieth Kansas because his proud spirit could not brook the humiliation of being commanded by his "social and intellectual inferiors," has been nominated for state senator by the populists and democrats of the Franklin-Coffey district.

Yes, August Flower still has the largest sale of any medicine in the civilized world. Your mothers and grandmothers never thought of using anything else for Indigestion or Biliousness. Doctors were scarce, and they seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous Prostration or Heart Failure etc. They used August Flower to clean out the system and stop fermentation of undigested food, regulate the action of the liver, stimulate the nervous and organic action of the system, and that is all they took when feeling dull and bad with headaches and other aches. You only need a few doses of Green's August Flower in liquid form to make you satisfied there is nothing serious the matter with you.
