The Rocky Road

Ben is a young family man with a wife and three year old daughter. But Ben is overly fond of drink. When his wife cannot take his drinking any longer he leaves for good. The wife becomes deranged and wanders the roads with her little girl until, finally, she even becomes separated from the child. The girl is adopted by a well-to-do farmer and his wife, who raise her as their own. One day when the girl has grown into a lovely young woman, she meets a prosperous and handsome older man through a strange twist of fate. They fall in love and are engaged to be married. On the very day of the wedding the poor mother wanders to the farmer's house. She sees a picture of her daughter as a three year old and recognizes her. Learning that the girl is to be married that day, the mother rushes to the church. When she arrives there she and the groom recognize one another, and immediately they both realize that Ben has nearly married his own daughter. But the shock is too much for the mother, and she dies in her husband's arms.

Women of the West

While due credit must be given to those women who have, by their wisdom, counsel and support made our domestic conditions what they are to-day, the wonderful prosperity of the United States as a whole is due to the extraordinary resources of the west, and therefore the places of honor in the niches of history rightfully belong to the women who so nobly assisted in settling and populating the great west. Stop and reflect what fortitude those women showed in venturing into the unknown wilderness, what heroism they displayed, surrounded by hostile Indians, and sacrificing their lives to eventually benefit all mankind. History is replete with the many instances of those acts, but mere words can but poorly represent to the mind the details of the exact incidents. To be able to view the actual occurrence cannot but indelibly impress upon the mind what we really owe these women pioneers. To see the simple life of these people, their sports, pleasures and hardships, and how, when the men folk are attending a country election, the red men take advantage of the situation and pillage and burn their homes. But better still to visually observe how these women, reared to danger, bravely protected their lives and property and also the wild rides of some of the women to warn their neighbors and bring the men to their rescue.
