SOME PEOPLE SAY IT PAYS
TO ADVERTISE. 9
A man who had been hunting
property in the city- came into
the Observer office and insert
tdt WANT AD in the columns S
of Uiis paper. Through this
; medium he succeeded in getting
' in touch with a party who had
im acre of ground to sell to-
gether.with a four-roomed cot- S
tago on the same. This he
bought for J700. and everybody $
iB congratulating him on his buy.
There is no use arguing, when 3
this papor Teaches about two 5
thousand renders every night S
and as many more through the
weekly, your are in a position to
make known your wants to just.5
4 so many people. If you had to 4
go around and see that many
people it would take you four
months. Think of the time sav-
ed. But for the want ad in this
' paper this man would not have !
5 been in the position to . make
this buy. There are many such
buys waiting' for someone to
come along and cxpresse a wish.
The chances are in this case S
about 5000 to 60. If your time
is worth something the cost of
the ad is trilling.

The Neighborhood club has votedl
unanimously to help organize a Par
ent-teacher Association, to foster
it and do 'all in its power to make
such an organisation a success and-
source of mutual improvement. '
The object of this movement is to
bring the home' mid school nearer to-
J I gather ,to broaden the sympathy and
understanding between parent, and
teacher, to help the parent see the
child from the teacher's standpoint
and help the teacher to see him from
the parent's standpoint to the end
that the child may be helped to de
velop into the highest type of man
or woman possible. .
: These associations are proving
very successful and helpful other
places and there is no reason why "he
same should not be true here. They
can be made delightful social centers
and it is desired that all the parents
01 the children in our public schools
will become members. ThoBe parents
wno think: they have no tune and care
the least for such things may be the
ones who need it most and may be
most helped by. such associations,
Part of the work of the women of the
Neighborhood club is to awaken in-
terest and induce parents to become
members. Do not overlook the fact
that this movement - recognizes the
fact that the child has a father as
well as a mother, hence the name par- F pent by the many neighbors and
ent-teachers association and it Is fiends of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Me

A good number of friends and
members of St, Peter's church turn-
ed out Thursday night to attend the-
reception in Honan Hall. Musical
numbers consisting of solos were
sung very effectively by Messrs. Glen
Conkey and Ellsworth Ellis. The
Rev. Upton H. Gibbs, after welcom-
ing the guests, called on the Rev..
Dr. Lane for a' few remarks and al-
so the Rev. J. H. Rudd the director
of the Y. M. C. A. both of whom most
happily responded in an impromptu
vein. The first part of the program
was closed by the burning of the
i.otos which are appropriately don
by Mrs. Honan after whom the hall
is named and has acted as treasurer
of the building fund. Bishop Pad-
dock then called for three cheers for
mrs. nonan wnicn were kic"
vim. After this interesting feature
the Bishop Paddock gave an instruct-
ive and entertaining account of his
recent trip to Panama, Central Am-
erica and Mexico. The ladies of the
guild then served light refreshments
and thus closed a happy evening to
all concerned. ' . j

Mrs. Joe WelUman entertained
many of the German ladies of the
citv last Wednesday a
her homo on Fourth street. Skaat,
the German card game, was the game
of the afternoon and as many of the
ladies had not heard of it before they
ipent some time learning it. It will
bo the game among these for the rest
of the winter and will be played by
those only who love figuring and a
game without much talking. One of
the cardinal rules to which the lad
ies have committed themselves is
silence during the game.
After much explanation of the
gamo Mrs. Kuhn succeeded in win
ning the first prize and Mrs. Mils
man the booby, the formor consisting
of a beautiful little locket and the lat- j city, maay of t&em at least, partici

Owing to the extreme weather on
Friday night the dance of the- bowl
ing;, club was not very well, attended.
Those who did attend had! the. floor
to themselves and were pe emitted ta
indulge in dancing to their heart's
content, without much bumping and.
stopping, on corns.. The moaic- was
very good and some of the new dis
ciples of the hesitation delighted
those who have not' learned. these
terpsichorean steps, with a pleasing
exhibition of the new dancer The
party dispersed, at. midnight:- The
club has promised . other dances and
it i hoped that climatic conditions
will be less severe' when theyydo-.de.-
cide to again become "mine hosts."
Those who did brave the weather had
a very delightful time of it. Those
who arranged the party: S. D.
Crowe Fred- Williams, MernE': V.
Stoddard, Martin L. Patton, Clinfr.Van
Fleet, Donald Scott, J. M. Kohl, and
Poe Cay lor..
a. most eniovable evening was
ter of Mr. and Mrs. McHargue.' Danc-
g vms indulged in until a very late
hour. Light refreshments were ser-
ved and every one present -left-with
the feeling, that a more pieasonj.
time could not be had. With the best
wishes of all present that many years
would be dealt out to the MdHargue's
and Chatas' the party broke up about
2 a. m. On the invitations sent: but,
was printed, "Omit presents please."
As it was given for a good time to be
had by those attending, they certain-
j had it.
