That it is cheaper in the long run to Build than it is to
Rent is a conceded fact. Cne year's rentals amount to twice
as much as the interest on a building investment. Money saved

Oar Sunday Sermon. -
As Rev. A. N. Smith of the Metho
dist church, and Rev. Goodman of the
Baptist church are away and no preach
ing there, the Free Press will give its
readers and the attendants of these
churches one of the finest sermons ever
delivered, by the famous Evangelist,
Bill Sunday. For beauty of expressior
and genuir.e elrquence it has seldom
bpp" quail- d Read it over rare full :
"Twenty-two years agr, with the
Holy Spirit as my guid I entered this
wonderful temple called Christianity, I
entered at the portico of Genesis, walk
ed down through the Old Testament
art gallery wh?re the pictures of Noah,
Abraham Moses, Joseph, Isaac, Jacob
and Daniel hang on the wall. I passed
into the music rooms of Psalms, where
the Fpirit swept the keyboard of nature
and brought forth the dirge-like waii
of the weeping prophet, Jeremiah, to
the grand impassioned strain of Isaiah,
until it seemed that every reed and
pipe in God's great organ of nature
responded to the tureful harp of David,
the sweet singer of Israel, I entered
the temple of Ecclesiastea where the
clear voice of the prescher was heard
and into the conservatory of Sharon,
and the Lilly of the Valley's sweet
scented spices filled and perfumed my
life. I entered the business office of
Proverbs, tiien into the observatory
room of the prophets, where I saw
telescopes of various sines, some point
ing to far off events, but all concen
trated upon the bright and morning
star, which was to rise above the moon
lit hills of Judea for our salvation. I
entered the audience room of King of
Kings and caught a vision of His glorj
from the standpoint of Matthew, Mark,
Luke and John; passed into the Acts of
the Apostles, where the Holy Spirit
was doing his .office work in the form
ation of the infant church. Then into
the correspondence room, where sat
Matthew, Mark, Paul, John, Peter,
James and Jude, penning their epistles
I stepped into the tferpe room of
Revelations, which all. towered into
glittering peaks, and I got a vision of
tha Kfng sitting upon his throne in all
His glory, an4d I cried:
"All hail to the power of Jesus' name,
Let angels prostrate fall;
Bring forth the royal diadem,
And erown Him Lord of all!
Clark Wilde, who is a student of the
Wesleyan University at Salina, visited
with home folks this week. About
thirty of his friends gave him a pleas
ant surprise one evening during his
visit, and a jolly good time was had as
is always the case when the Smokey
Hill folks have somethin' doin
How few of us are really our own
boss. The married men are subject to
their wives; the bachelors obey their
landlady; the old maids cater to their
cats and poodles, while all of us bow
to the weak thing called opinion. We
come into this world without our con
sent and leave it against our protest,
and while here kick at everythirg that
crosses our path but all to no purpose.
The world wags on, not caring whether
we live or die, laugh or cry.
The Episcopal services Sunday even
ings are well attended and are proving
interesting to those who attend.
Another new building is being staked
out. this time on North Fort street
near the Rathbone rssidence.
The blue slip for the box rent has
appeared in the postoffice. Your Uncle
Sam is doing a strictly cash-in-advance
business.
Joe Schnefer this week sold the three
quarter sections of land belonging to
Habercorn for $15,000 as the old man
is going back to Russia.
The Band boys are arranging to give
a concert in the G. A. R. Hall, April
13th the proceeds to go toward paying
for their uniforms. Save that night
for them.
Uufortunate Sayings.
We often read in the paper or hear
someone say something that sounds
perfectly ridiculous, yet nothing un
usual was meant. Here are a few
clippings from papers:
While Miss Pearl Kinsmore of East
Wind, Ind., was coming downstairs
Tuesday she slipped and bruised her
self on the landing. (?)
Amos Mittleby of Woolspost. Kan.,
while harnessing a fractious horse, was
kicked just south of the corn crib. (?)
He is able to be out sgain.
While Herold Green of Buelah, Misp.
was escorting' Miss Violet Gooph home
from a church sociable 'Saturday night
a snvap-e dog set upon them and bit
Mr. Green four times in the public
oquare. (?)

The department of Commerce and
Labor, Washington, is sending out
over every rural mail route a post card
notice to farmers to the effect that if
in need of common laborers, mechanics
farm laborers, etc. , to return the card
specifying the kind of labor needed
They in return will send out necessary
blanks to be filled out specifying what
kind of laborers they want and the
department will try to fill their requisi-d
tion. This is a matter taken up by the
Commerce and Labor Bureau to distri
bute admitted aliens and other persons
seeking employment. This is a free in
formation bureau and no fee is charged
or accepted from either party.
inese are direct rrom toe old coun
try. They come over in search of work
and as the government finds out from
each one their trade or occupation
they can generally send you good help
They want a good home in America.
This can either be taken as a gentle
hint or a timely warning. In a few
weeks a rural route inspector from the
United States Postoffice department at
Washington will cross the state line of
Kansas and commencing in the eastern
counties he will work as fast as possible
his official hand, making a clean sweep
over the state cutting the rural routes
with relentless energy from the stand
point of a celd-blooded official who is
working under orders and who has lit
tle use for pleas and promises. In
other words a rural route inspector is
coming to Kansas and his duty will be
to look over all the rural routes in the
state. Those routes that are hindered
by roads will be scratched off the map
and the customers will have to resort
to the old time practice of coming to
town for their mail. No excuses will
go. State Journal.
The government is spending much
money to bring the mail direct to your
farm and it is asking very little that
the patrons keep the roads on the
route in good shape. In this county we
have some veryxbad stretches of roads
on our rural routes.
