May Spend the Winter Here

Mr.. and Mrs. Vaughn and little
daughter arrived Tuesday to spend
some time with Mrs. Vaughn's pa
rents, Mr.. and Mrs. G. L. Hender-
son. Mr.. Vaughn has been employ
ed for quite number of years in the
lumber business in which conditions at
present are very unsettled owing to
tie rate fight between the railroads
and the lumbermen's association and
also to the money stringency resulting
from the operations of frenzied finaa
ciers in Wall street. A large portion
of the single mills of the state have
shut down for an indefinite period and
it is expected that many if not most
of the interior lumber mills, whose
product is shipped by rail, will soon
do so until the interstate commerce
commission rules upon the rate ques-
tion.

The Knocker and the Patriot

In q recent address before !. meet
ing OF commercial travellers a
wIde-awake knight of the grip thus
described "the knocker'' and "the
patriot"
What is a knocker? Aknocker is
a man, who, lacking the gray matter
and the energy to originate and pro-
m 'te anything particularly beneficial
to the human race, decries the honest
efforts of a fellow man who has the
brains and heart to discover and
advocate something in advance of the
ordinary plodder. A knocker critics.
es when and where there is no excuse
for his criticism.
He who critics. and condemns
wrong doing in private and public life
Is patriot and benefactor; be is
not knocker. The man who does
not frown upon dishonest and unfair
dealings, where he knows of them,
neglects his duty and responsibility
as member of society, and if he is
an officer of the law he becomes an
accessory to the crime and should be
punished accordingly. He is not
patriot. He maintains his silence be-
cause he is cringing coward-af afraid
to speak lest he should lose a dollar
or an opportunity to get in or the
graft himself!''
