PRAISE FOR GERMAN EMPEROR
Far-Seeing Ruler, Liberal and Wlaa,
Is the Declaration of One of
His Subjects.
Erich von Biebrich of Berlin is s
young German touring the United
States. Speaking about military serv
ice in Germany, Herr von Biebrich
said recently:
“Military training for young men
is of great advantage to any country.
A powerful navy serves the same
purpose. I am in favor of an ef
fective army and a powerful navy
for Germany, irrespective of what
England thinks about it. Germany’s
commerce over the seas needs strong
protection, and for that purpose we
must have a powerful navy. Ger
many has enemies in Europe not far
from her own frontiers. To protect
ourselves against these, we must
have a strong and effective navy.
“Who can blame us under the cir
cumstances ? Who can say that we
are a military power? Are we not
expected to defend our country and
her interests? Are we expected to
do what other countries would like
us to do ?
“The German emperor is a far
seeing ruler, liberal, and wise. The
German people ilodize him. They
will follow him wherever he may
lead, even if he should lead into bat
tle.”—Washington Herald.
CAUSE AND EFFECT.
I
Owl—My, but your hair is growing
long. What have you done to re
store it?
Leo—Been divorced.
LITERATURE IN LATIN AMERICA.
During the last few years the
South American people have found
out that their future lies in the de
velopment of their agricultural re
sources. The people are eager to
study agriculture and become better
acquainted with the tilling of the
soil. Everywhere agricultural so
cieties are being formed, and books
and magazines on this subject are
much sought after. Some magazines
printed in Spanish in the United
States are becoming quite popular in
Latin America, and are good adver
tising mediums for reaching the con
sumers.
MISSOURI WIT.
A number of representatives were
facetiously discussing the resources
of the state of Missouri one after
noon, when McCall of Massachusetts
observed to Mr, Lloyd of the first
named state:
“Lloyd, I am told that Missouri
stands at the head in raising mules.”
“It seems to me,” retorted Lloyd,
“that is the only safe place to stand
in the circumstances.”—Lippin
cott’s.
THE EFFECT SPOILED.
“Refused you 1 Surprising! Did
you walk with her in the moon
light?”
“Yes.”
“And vow you would gladly die
for her?”
“I did, but just then some one
yelled ‘Hands up!’ and I ran three
blocks before her mischievous young
brother caught me and told me it
was only a joke.”—Kansas City
Times.
JU8T LIKE A BACHELOR.
They were strolling along the lake
front.
“The waves must be feminine,” re
marked the tall bachelor.
“Ah,” hastened the girl, “because
they are so pretty ?”
“No, because they are always say
ing something and no one knows
what they are saying.”
And after that she said bachelors
were the meanest men in the world.
HE WON HER.
“My singing of the lullaby didn’t
seem to aw'aken much enthusiasm,”
fished the millionairess.
“No,” replied the needy but am
bitious youth, “it was so artistically
rendered that it lulled even that to
sleep.”

mss SCHUPP GIVES SOCIAL.
Last Thursday uight a party was
given at the hospitable home of
Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Morgan under
the supervision of their daughter
Miss Janie Schupp. It was by all
means the social event of the sea
son, and no pains were spared to
make of it a grand success. About
twenty guests were present and all
had a most delightful time.
The decorations for the evening
were of national colors and superb
in every respect. Japanese lan
terns were becomingly suspended
from the portico and added much
to the general “fitness of things.”
All kinds of games were indulg
ed in, while vocal and instrumental
music, so appropriate for an occa
sion of this kind, was furnished
by the young ladies present. Spe
cial attention was given the piano
numbers by Miss Julia Robbins, of
Conway, which she rendered in a
very capable and artistic manner
greatly to the delight of her audi
tors. Miss Robbins is highly ac
complished, and her rendition of
these most difficult numbers evi
dences most rigid cultivation and
remarkable ability.
During the evening delicious re
freshments were served. Nothing
was left undone to make everyone
feel at home and add to the even
ing’s enjoyment and Miss Schupp
is to be congratulated for the un
bounded succes of the party given
by her in honor of her cousins, the
charming Misses Pauline and
Ethel Muir, of Fulton, Mo. It
never will be forgotten.
Among those present were:
Misses Lillie Spivy, Helen Macnab,
Ethel Johnson, Terry Bull, Della
Jeffries, Fannie Spivy, Lou Mc
Crory, Julia Robbins and Ruth
Hailey; Mesdames G. L. Carson
and G. W. Barber; MessrsRob’t.
