AMERICAN SUNDAY.

All work and no play makes Jack
a dull boy. This seems very well
TO apply to the American Sunday
There are thousands Of working men
who get no recreation or amusement
through the week, and the American
Sunday is the only day Of seven
they have for these things. It
does appear they are entitled to
spend one day in the week as they
choose so long as they do not tram
pie on the rights of others. While
the day is set apart by some as a re-
ligious day, yet those who do not
worship the Lord, are entitled to
avail themselves of the day in man
ner that will be beneficial to them.
Innocent Amusement can not hurt
them, nor can it be injurious to
Others that they indulge in it.
In this connection there is of late
a striking thought gathered from
the writer's of the day. It is not I'M
common for them to speak Of the
American Sunday, without even a
single allusion to the Sabbath, nor
is there anything 10 suggest in such
writings that the day is to be one Of
religious devotion. The latest ex-
ample along this line is that Of Gov
ernor Pattison, of Ohio. man of
deyout religious, or at least so re-
pnted, He does not dwell upon the
subject Of observing the Sunday
laws to promote religion as he does
to preserve civilization and advance
American manhood, and yet, after
all, Sunday, whether regarded the
Sabbath or not, has Christian civili-
cation associated with it and with
that feature excluded or partially so,
the day Of rest will fail in its help
frllness 10 mankind. Governor Pat
tison's position Of the Sunday ques-
ton is as follows:
Sunday laws are an absolute ne
cessity for the advancement of a
Christian civilization: beside, they
are upon the statute books; they
should be enforced and any mayor
who does not enforce them should be
removed. If there is any doubt as
to the power Of the governor TO re-
move a derelict mayor, the Legisla-
ture should correct the faulty law"
There can be no real objection to
this position. The laws are on the
books and are intended to be OBJ
served. else they would not. have
been placed there. But even in this
there is habit of some in commune
ties to make and set up their own
laws in addition. and these objects
to others employing for themselves
forms of amusement, recreation and
observance Of the American Sunday
not especially the Sabbath. BY
this the former set up moral stand
ard of their own, one not commanded
by the laws, and their effort to de-
prive others from a standard Of liv-
ing, which to them may appear right,

Dangers Of a Cold and How to
Auoid Them.

More fatalities have their origin
in or result from cold than from
any other cause. This fact alone
should make people more careful as
there is no danger whatever from a
cold when it is properly treated in
the beginning. For many years

been recognized as the most prompt
and eifectual medicine in use for this
disease. 1t acts on natures plan.

The Democratic Harrison County
Herald spent several years trying to
break up the county fair, but that
Institution grew stronger, larger and
better all the time under the Her
dds criticism. The people were
mmindful of what the Herald said
and will be just as unmindful now.
The fault with the Herald is it makes
false pretensions. 1t wants 10 be
something it. is not. It also says it
is something it is not. Even it can
not hide the fact that its Democracy,
or betrayal of the Republican party,
vas so great and bitter, that it voted
against Judge Lynch, one of the
most important nominees of the Re-
publican party. The Herald may
continue to object, but that is all the
good it will do. as the county fair
can get along very well without it.

DOUGLASS.

This week we are called upon
to eulogize the good deeds of a
great and inspiring man Of our
race, the Hon. Frederick Doug
lass, who was born on or about
the 18th day of February 1917,
in Tuckahoe county Maryland,
in those dark and cruel slavery
days when the star of hope nor
the light of freedom could not
be seen in the distant future.
Born in the lowest depths of pow
erty, ignorance, superstition and
slavery-fighting with the, dogs
for a living-with no mother to
love him, no father to care for
him, save the Father OF US all.
He grew to manhood, was self
educated, self-emancipated and
marched onward and upward un-
til this child of nature was heard
by Presidents, Kings, Monarchs
and Potentates. His eloquent
voice rang out in halls and pull
pits, from rostrums and platforms,
until nations heard him and his
poor enslaved race was emancl-
pated by the blood of millions
and the cost of billions. Fred
erick Douglass was undoubtly one
Of the greatest diplomats, orator,
and reformes that America has
yet produced. He had further
to climb and went further up the
rounds of fame than any man,
and today his great history, honest
character, inspiring magnetism
and true loyalty will ever appeal
to aspiring and struggling hui
manity the world over.
