A BEAUTIFUL WORLD

Admiral Dewey, in an address
to an association of war veterans
at Utica, N. Y, said among other
things: "This is beautiful world
and none of US are anxious to leave
| it,"
In commenting on the above
words uttered by the famous ad-
miral, the Deseret News says:
Yes, this is indeed beautiful
world, but some people are an
,Eious TO leave it, not because of
any flaw in its construction, as it
came from the hands of the Creator
but because of the troubles, diff
culties and perpIexities that origi-
nate in failure to observe the
divine laws, by which the world
is governed. Thousands do leave
ut voluntarily every year, and sui
eide is on the increase in all civi
llzed countries. Others remain,
not because of any beauty they see
around them, but because they
fear to take the final plunge into
the depths of death, But these
are exceptions. To the great ma
jority, the world with its sunshine
and flowers, its innumerable forms
of animal life, its meadows and
fields, and above all, its human
hearts throbbing with friendship
and love, aspirations and hope, is
inexpressiveIy beautiful.
1t has often been said that the
world is TO us, what we ourselves
make it. Our impressions OF what
we perceive are, largely, reflex of
the light within. This is also true.
To perceive and appreciate the
beauties the divine Architect has
lavished upon this earthly abode,
it is necessary to have a soul that
is prepared tor such impressions,
and attracted by them. Otherwise
they will exist unobserved. Two
travellers will pass through city.
One will know in short time, all
about Its beautiful parks, its schools
and churches, and benevolent in
stitutions The other will, in the
same time, see on ly the dives and
dens, the slums and the m oral
filth,

the walls had not been treated to

But why multiply illustrations?
The wise man of old said of "bim
that hath an evil eye:" ".As he
thinketh in mis- heart, so is be"
and the philosophical truth thus
expressed is revealed every day.

WON BIG TURKEY.

Will Lee, of this city, captured the
big Bib turkey shot for at the turkey
shoot held at Harve Carnes in Coppin-
ger Cove Saturday. The turkey had
been corn fed for the past six weeks
and had attained such mammoth pro-
portions that when it was whispered
around that it would be shot for in a
shooting match, sportsmen Immediate
ly oiled up their guns and started for
the rendezvous appointed.
The turkey was made up at So. 80
or 1Gc shot and the distance was 80
yards. Only three contestants hit the
paper, about 6x6 inches in size, and
Mr.. Lee succeeded in getting his shot
in about quarter of an inch from the
center, defeating all corners and get
ting the whale-we mean, the turkey.
In addition he secured two one-dollar
purses, and may be considered an Al
nlarksman.

Christmas at Owen Church.

The Christmas observance at Owen
Church was carried out according to
the program published in the News
last week, and a large congregation
filled the church, which was attractive
ly decorated with holly and other
green's. A graceful arch of evergreen
extended from side to side and with the
children grouped beneath it singing
made a pretty picture. REGULATIONS
were not SO numerous as on former oc-
casion, but heard with keen interest
accorded the efforts of the children.
Their songs were very sweet and pref
ty and some very diminutive Misses
were stars. Miss Lula Lasater had
charge of their training and deserves
credit for her efforts in keeping up the
Christmas spirit.
A strong choir composed Of Misses
True and Nina Randle, Lula Lasater,
Anna Deakins, Louise Hill, Mrs. Sallie
Lasater, Messrs. Hill, Sherman and
Randle, with Miss Grace Thomas, or
ganlst, furnished the remainder of
the song service. The exercises were
conducted by B. F. Havron, while
W. R. Thomas offered the prayer.
The arrival of Santa Claus at the
conclusion of the service was the sign
al for the usual demonstration accord
cd such distinguished parsonage.
Santa seemed to be at home in Owen
Church, and after kissing all the little
girls he could reach and blowing kisses
to the big ones, he gave orders that
the contents Of the big basket he
brought should be distributed among
the children, and departed for other
PLACES. The distribution was made and
motley array of gifts were fonnd from
vases to books, and purses to games to
please the fancy Of the children.

STOLE TEAM
AND WAGON
THIEVES EL0PE WITH PROP
ERTY OF DALLAS DIXON
WHILE DRIVER WAS
IN STORE.

Thieves drove off with a wagon and
team of mules Friday night owned
by Dallas Dixon, while the driver, Ish-
am Dixon, was in Coldwell's grocery
trading. The theft was committed
about p. M, and owing to the dark
ness of the night, no one noticed the
team leaving town. The driver, Ish-
am Dixon, who was in the store trad
ing and awaiting the arrival of COM
panion, went out as the Chattanooga
freight passed through town about 5:15
to where the wagon and pair of mules
were standing for fear they would get
frightened, and finding them unalarm-
ed went back into the store, a short
distance away. When he and his com
panion got ready to start about ten
minutes later, mules and wagon were
gone, and no trace was apparent of the
thieves beyond the tracks of the wheels
leading to the pike near Mr.. Wilson'S,
and then turning toward Jasper.
Search was made Saturday, and all
roads examined leading to the city,
and inquiries made, but nothing
learned except that wagon had passed
down the Shellmound road the night
before that contained strange men.
The wagon and team, pair of
mules, was owned by Dallas Dixon
and was driven by his son, Isham,
hauling hickory. 1t was severe loss
to Mr.. Dixon as it was practically his
only means of support and he is not
able to buy another outfit The sheriff
and deputies of the county were
promptly notified and every clue to the
robbers will be followed up.
