Frank Clark has ''finally given way
to the pressure of friends and entered
the race for congress from this dis
trict. Clark now lives at Lake City,
instead of Oklahoma City, and is
therefore elegible, or will be by the
time the district primary is held.
He is an eloquent speaker and his
entrance cOmplIcates the situation
somewhat in this district. He will
have good following.
Rev. and Mrs. J. G. Ley of Mica.
nopy will celebrate their golden
wedding on July 4th. Rev. Mr. Ley
is in his Slst year and has been q
pastor in Florida since 1914, when he
came into the territory as mission
ary. He is the only living charter
member of the Florida Conference.
All of his years have been spent IN
the ministry of his church in this
state except for the time he was a
chaplain in the Confederate army.
What a glorious record! Fifty-nine
years of toll for the Improvement
of the moral and spiritual welfare of
the people of FlOrida! And the

sons for the Christian Ministry !
What shall we say for them? There
isn't much to say except to COM
mend them to the mercies of the
good God to whom they have de-
voted their lives, and who has, by
the fact of blessing them with length
of years and faithful children who
call them blessed, put the stamp of
His approval on their work.
The News has not the pleasure Of
knowing the Rev. j. G.. Ley. But ii
is safe proposition that he is a poor
man-that the privations, self
denials and sacrifices of his active
wears have left him next door to
want in his old age. Men pay liber-
ally for their pleasures but precious
little for their piety. We are told
that "Salvation is Free and this is
one of the few th n IS in the Bible
that we are pleased to interpret lit
orally. So the preachers have topay

DUR WILD Nf|GHBORS
Many of Them Die of Hunger Durr.
 ing the Winter Season.
Both Birds and Beasts Suffer for the Necessities of Life and Are Driven to CannibaIisni
 What Would Men Do.

When l hear man say, 'I wouldn't do that if I were starving" I am led to smilingly wonder how near he has ever been to dying for want of food, and how long he would adhere to his lofty resolu- tions in the face of actual starvation. few men, very few, there are, who know the bangs of extreme hunger, and these will tell you that no man is prophet enough to say what he will will not do when the wclf' is snarling in his face.
 I regret to say that it is frequently experienced by animals, from deer to field mice. At no tineis it so prevalent as in winter, when more food is neces- sary and less is available than at any other season. Then it is that many birds and other gentle creatures die either of starvation or of cold witch they might have endured had the A q sufficient food, and that many les. w T. tie are driven to devour their fellows in order to save their own lives.
 In the absence of organized relief amongst the animals themselves, 1t seems reasonable to suggest that those of us who love them might at this sea- son give them substantial evidence of our love. Few of them need shelter; most of them have snug homes of some sort, and about all of them have jackets of feathers or fur which, under ordinary circumstances, will withstand very severe cold; but food as a rule, is scarce in winter, and a little trouble and a very little exxpense on our part will save great deal of suffering.
 Tn giving our attention to this sub ject, naturally most of us think of the birds first of all Indeed it is often diff ficult for even thoughtless people to avoid feeding the birds, for when the snow comes and covers up their natural food supply, they come to our door yards and hop about beneath the win dows, or sit in f1ocks upon the naked shrubs and trees, as though to remind us to do the decent thing. And 1t is not much they ask, these little pensioners; they will be grateful for the sweepings from the tablecloth, if that is all we have. But most of us can do at least a little better, for cracked oats, sunfower seed and canary seed are cheap, and a cents worth will give many birds a breakfast. At a pinch, these seeds may

There is whole lot of talk at pres ent as to whom Mayor elect Elton will gather around him to carry, on the city's business the next two years. Every once in a while we hear of this man and the other laying wires to cap ture certain positions. Why not let the new mayer do his own, planning and wire laying? Democrats can hardly expect much from republican admin istration. Of course if they are called upon they nop doubt will feel in duty bound to make a sacrifice and accept the positions they have been selected for. Let us give Mayor Elton show to do his own nominating, and let this be one of the office seeking -the-man adninistra rations, if you will. We sin cerely hope Mayor Elton will show the independence with which he is credited with having and make his appoint ments without fear or favor It Is only once in several years that re- publican mayor has a chance to do this In Waterbury. and for that reason the incoming mayor should be given full swing.
