YE EDITOR NOW A MEMBER
OF THE F. E. & Z. U. OF A.
On last Saturday night we had
the pleasure of having the mvsta
gogue of Jordon Union No. 673
escort and instruct us through the
mysticism of the Farmers Educa
tional and Co-operative Union of
America.
In becoming a member of this
worthy order, I do so at the ear
nest solicitation of one of its coun
ty officers, and with a hope and
desire to accomplish something for
the good of the order. I recog
nize that one of the great needs of
the order is an aggressive mouth
piece. The News will at all times
defend the principles of the order
against all who may assault them,
lend its approval and support to
every commendable movement in
the order, and criticise in a fair
impartial and brotherly way, all
actions taken by the order that we
do not approve of. This paper,
while we have charge of it at least
will at all times be open to mem
bers of the Unions for their criti
cism of anything that may appear
herein, and we sincerely hope the
brethern throughout the county
will assist us in making it a suc
cess.
To the members of Jordon Un
ion No 673 at Beards, and to the
good brother who solicited our
application, we extend our hearty
thanks. We will try and do our
best to meet with the Union regu
larly every Saturday night. As
we have not yet been fully in
structed in the workings and prin
ciples of the order, will refrain
from saying more this issue.
NOTICK.
Having secured the services
of t wo first class mechanics, am
now prepaired to do your blaca
smithing and wood-work on short
notice. A first-class hsrse-shoer
can now be found at my shop.
Bring me your work.
Yours for business,

INSPECTION OF CO. “0."
The annual inspection of Com
pany “G,” First Infantry, A. S.
G. , of this city was held here last
Saturday, Capt. R. B. Keating
commanding.
The inspecting officer, Capt. G.
H. McDonald, First Cavalry, U. S.
A., arrived Saturday and was met
and received at the depot by the
Company.
About 3:00 o’clock in the after
noon the company was formed at
the armory, corner of Main and
Fakes streets, and marched thence
down Fakes street and as they
passed Second street were halted,
lined up in open rank and inspec
ted. Capt. McDonald cautioned
the members of the company that
if at any time they wished to dis
obey the laws of the state to al
ways disrobe themselves of their
uniforms while so doing and to
never while acting in the capacity
of a soldier, do anything that
would bring shame and disgrace
upon himself or his comrades.
That if he had to do contrary to
that which is right, to do so as a
citizen. ,
Company “G” is not three years
old, but she leads the oldest in the
state, having made 100 per cent
last Saturday on inspection. Some
thing of which our citizens may
be proud. The total strength of
Co. “G” rank and file, is 53 all of
whom were present.

GOOD HUMOR A PRICELESS BOON.
There is but little doubt that
good humor is a priceless boon.
It is the oil that smooths many a
rough place in life which other
wise would be very hard sledding.
A man who can smile at misfor
tune and the mistakes he has
made in life, and the courage to
correct them and work manfully
to make amends, has that in him
which deserves success in the end.
Ill humor sulks in its tent. The
sun never shines bright enough to
drive away the clouds of gloom
which continually surround it. It
has a snap and a snarl for any
who may attempt to point out a
better way or offer a crumb of
comfort in case of real need. Good
humor rises to the occasion and
meets misfortune with a smile,
however much the heart may be
pained, forgetting its own heart
pains by lending a helping hand
to those less fortunate. Good
humor is a fortress, a strong tower
where the possessor may flee to
gather strength for a renewed battle
with difficulty and danger. Good
humor is simply invincible. A
man who laughs at misfortune
, and sets his face bravely to do the
right as God has given him to see
it is worth more to the world by
far than the snarler who sets down
amid a broken fortune to bemoan
his fate and make life a wilder
ness of woe for everyone within
hailing distance.

The 19th. inst. will go down on
the memory of every person pres
ent at the concert,given at the school
auditorium ou that date as one of
the most excellent and perfect, if
not the best entertainment ever
given in this city heretofore. Ev
ery one on the program played
well his part and errors numbered
few, if any.
The evening’s program was
opened with a short prayer by
Rev. Cloves of the Methodist
church of this city, after which
followed the regular program
which is shown above.
The Five Little Fiddlers re
ceived quite a lengthy encore, in
anwer to which a repetition was
given. This concert is the effic
ient work of Misses Clementine
Brewer anel Kathryn Faucett, and
much praise do they deserve for
having trained the children so
perfectivelv. Some forty children
took part in the program and ’twas
only through the adroit training
and teaching received from these
two ladies that the pupils succeed
ed in rendering the program with
out few, if any errors.
All that goes to make a room
more beautiful in an evergreen
effect, was there in its prop
er cast. The receipts reached a
total of $47.40, the auditorium be
ing crowded to its fullest capacity.
For a good light.
