After dinner we pulled out for Charley Robbins in West Boone township. We land- ed there all right and went to churth Sunday night at Burdett. The attendance was small. We guess the folks that had ears went joy riding. We took in the Hd Corlett sale last week. He had plenty of good stock but I have seen sales where there were bigger crowds and stock sold better. Miss Olive Robbins and Miss Verna Purkey scpent last Sun- day at the home of Mr._ Orville Black. They report a jolly good time. L. 8. Paddock and wife made a} flying trip out to Western Kan- sas just before the election. L. 8. ost his vote but he thinks that him being out was the~cause of Kansas going for Wilson. He told the writer that he left Dr. Lusk here to take care of Missou- ti and Missouri and Bates County went all o. k. , Some one reported some time ago that Elkhart township and one other township had the worst roads in the county. I think T have found the township, but won’t name it. 2 Some of the boys out in Elk- hart who, bet pu the election If you; | Frank Keeton and family, l aem to be ont of humor about lithe way that the election went.
