life with none of it's draw
backs
"The matrons of the different

painstaking to point out the spec
.ial objects of interest. !"
They do not rush through,

plain. .
''The Wylie people furnish
such good meals, comfortable,
clean beds, sanitary tents. .
"A system without red tape. "

Salaries of Teachers at Mobile, Ala.
Will Be Reduced,

| Mobile, Ala, June 4.-From returns
received from the special school tax
election held in Mobile county Tues
day the prohibitionists have suffered
defeat, losing the city by a majority
of 376 votes and the county by a
smaller number
The passage of state prohibition
bill in the recent Alabama legislature
deprived the public schools of this
county of $4,000 per year, received
from the liquor tax. and left them
with practically no support.

imposing 10 cents per 800 tax to
maintain the schools. Anti-prohibi-
tionists fought the tax and won.
Teachers salaries and school terms
will be reduced to meet the condi-
tons.

THE TRUE HOME.

Earth's best gift is true home. And maybe it is
than most of us think
The home, to be truly such, must be shelter only
against the storms and the cold of physical life, but
against the fears and worries and disapponments that
weather-scar the soul
The location of the home is not the important thing
it is the home ideal.
American homes of thousand varieties from the
simplicity of the bares to the luxury of the grandes
they detached and independent in the country stand
ing by amid fields and gardens they cells in
a crowded hive in city blocks and apartment houses
But home, wherever it may be- and however grand or
poor, is abiding place Of happiness, it is not accord
ing to the home ideal
The home itself may be in one room; it may be in a
hut or in houseboat, in dugou; or it may be in
great avenue mansion or stately palace where for gen
eraon ancestors have been enjoyment of and cu
ture 1t matters little The home ideal is the main thing
Without love and faith and trust and sympathy the
grandes mansion is cheeress barracks with these the
hulnbest roof is happy home
Home means people Of kindred blood congenial dis
position and common endeaVors gathered around one
table and under roof. Striking it's roots down deep
into primitive SOIL the family signifies the nermanence
and the progress of the race.
The middle ages invented women. and thereby estab-
lised the nome In ancient Greece woman had stand
ing at ALL and the home only an abiding place Plato
knew nothing of the notion that woman NAV make man
happy Last and highest the order of creation woman
Is coming INTO her own as prestess of the sacredes
pie ever reared on earth.
We are apt to forget that after ALL the greatest of all
facts is the inner life
1T is attitude Of thought that makes for us the
world bright dismalthat people it for us with laugh
ing princes with moaning paupers
Ana 1t is through the windows Of our homes-ceaned
with our own loves, or begrimed with hates widened
ny sympathies or narrowed by suspcions-that view
lfe get our real estimate of it, and our place in it,
Through the windows in our own keeping this would
is beautiful harmonious and sweet or ldeous discord
ant and bitter.
