TOPICS TALKED ABOUT.


was the seer of sight Monday
which one hardly ever sees and
which is great fun when it is seen.
1t was Il strange book agent who
tackled local individual who pur-
sues the same avocation. 1t was in
the New DOMINION Office and all the
BOYS laughed and laughed Tin their
sleeves.) Prof Wade didn't buy
the other fellows book. but / know
he mist have nudged him and said
something To the effect that he was
on the same lay, as the other fellow
suddenly desisted, and when he did
it was found he was very faint and
sick, and as he fell toward he was
caught by Watty; Wood dashed
water in his face, and kiger said
produce the horse medicine" At
last there came whisper from the
poor victim and Christy caught onto
this much train leave" Dorse
wheeled him to the depot and he had
rallied then sufficiently to saw:
Life is chock full of stumbling
blocks and snares; oh, if had only
known he was in the same "profesh.
So
Some folks Gil themselves hrim
full ofpreiudice and think it piety.
Because they feel stormy aversion
to certain persons whom they mag
ine guilty of Objectionable practices
they flatter themselves they hate sin.
They don't-they only hate the sin
ner, and thus become greater sinners
themselves. Does the shoe fit any
one in Morgantown?

If the laborer is worthy of his hire
the hire ought to be higher than it
is, or at least. whether high or low,
it should be paid when due, for low
living is not always conducive to
high thinking.

doubt much if any one in Nor
gantown has ever listened to more
luminous discourses than those
preached by DR.. White Of the M. f.
Church, Each sermon is finished
gem Of polished diction and lumin
Gus logic framed in halo Of spirit
uality 1t is only when | meet such
as he that / rebel against the narrow
span of life allotted to man or wish
that the doctrine of TRANSPORTATION
we're true in some degree so that
those so splendidly equipped for
reaching and teaching might have
their opportunities for good indeii

1t is a law of trade that supply is
regulated by demand ! wonder if
that is why the girl predominates so
largely here. The female element
seems out of proportion to
the population. There is perfect
rosebud garden of girls" from II
years and upward, but hardly ba-
ker's dozen of native boys growing
up. | can only account for this by
the law Of expectation. AS it seems
to be part of the code that our
girls may, must, could, would, or
should marry students, the expect
ant attention of the mothers is prob
ably influenced by that fact and
hence the great preponderence of the
genus femme over that Of homo.
This is in line with the new gospel
of evolution | imagine.

1t is fortunate for the sanity Ct
newcomers that the people of this
place have ceased TO marry sail in
the family for relationship here is
fairly doubled and twisted 1t
makes ones head go whirligig trying
to understand what relation Browns
children are to Smiths, when his
wife's mothers uncle married his ia
theirs second wife's sister The
hemisphere of ones brain ceases to
coordinate properly when puzzled
by such propositions. If you should
step on any PERSONS foot here at
least half dozen other persons
would yell, so widely have relation
ships ramified in the social fabric.

mean the Commencement of the
West Va. University. 1t brings the
joy of full fruition to those who bear
off the long sought for prize of a di-
ploma; but 'the girl | leave behind
me" will not feel so joyous. Good
bye is always sad word to say, but
to those who live right it is never
said for the last time.
