THE HERALD is MISTAKEN

The Lexington Herald IN a Sunday
editorial on its cirulation. claimed to
be sending more copies TO the rural
routes of Clarv county ethan all
other daily papers combined" The
Herald is mistaken. The Winchester
News now circulates many more cop
les on the rural routes of Clark coun-
Ity than does the Lexington Herald.
In fact, we believe we may safely
make the claim that The News has
a larger circulation on the rura.
routes of this county than all other
daily papers combined"
The Herald was evidently figuring
on its old contemporaries and over
looked this eight weeks old baby.
The results so far in this county
have been exceedingly gratifying to
the management of The News, but we
do not propose to rest satisfied unit
we have on our subscription list ev-
cry house that can be reached by the
rural carrier.
The News has wide field along
the line of the Lexington & Eastern
railroad and throughout the Tent
Congressional District, which we
have as yet barely touched. But al !.
ready we have very gratifying list
from Winchester to jackson.

THE LAYMAN'S MOVEMENT.

The layman's missionary move
ment will be inauguIated in Cen
trial Kentucky by an interdenomina-
tional conference in Lexington Tues
day and Wednesday Of this week.
This is a meeting of Christian bust
ness men to consider with experts the
. question of worldwide missions.
There will be GREAT banquet Tues
day at which a numbre of Winches-
ter men will be present.
This movement Is about two years
old. 1t was inaugurated in New York
City in November 1906, by a gath
ering of business men. Already men
have been sent to the four quarters
of the globe to investigate the ques-
ton Of missions. For decades the
missionary movement has been left
: to the preachers and the women of
the various Protestant churches.
The same principles of business
and cooperation among men, that
has caused commerce to penetrate
into every corner of the world are
now to be applied to evangeisation.
Its purpose is to provide for an in
dependent investigation Of missions
by laymen, for an intelligent presen-
tation of the facts and needs of mis-
sions by laymen, for a statemanlike
plan of cooperation between various
denominations looking to the speedy
conquest of the whole world for tn,
Christian religion ir Il life time.
The movement has gripped men of
all nations. It has stirred the lay
men Of the Canadian churches; it has
swept across the ocean and aroused
the men of England, Scotland and
Germany to their duty in this world
struggle. Over two score cities in
America have been reached and have
organized. All in all, this has been,
and is, the most notable movement
in the Protestant churches for de-
cades.

REDUCES RUNNING EXPENSES.
John S. Leech Makes Changes at
Government Printing Office.

The running expenses of the government
printing office have been reduced thou
sands of dollars since John S. Leech as
sumed charge as public printer. it was
stated today. During his incumbency Mr.
Leech has wiped out several positions
that he regarded as comparatively useless
and has reduced salaries of certain Of
ficials who were in his opinion, receiving
more than the Importance and duties of
their positions warranted.
One of the latest reductions was that
of Russell o. Beene. who was designated
under the Stillings regime as ''statistician
and accountant Mr.. Beene's pay was
cut from $1,000 to $500 and his title
changed to acting auditor Another re-
form instituted by Mr.. Leech is the
substitution Of the system he estab-
lished in the Philippine printing Of
flee for the audit system of keeping
the record of the work done by the
presses. Under the audit system the
pressmen kept the record of the work
while under the new system the press
feeders kept the record This is said to
be a marked improvement over the old
system.
The office of superintendent of supplies,
which was abolished when Harry F.
Ashton was let out of the Office, has been
re-established under the designation of
superintendent of supplies and store
keeper" and George Lamb has been ap-
pointed to the place.

How About the Grandfathersp
Tombstone Editor. Sunday Star: o.
1 have carefully studied your tomb
stone riddle and worked the same out
with ingenuity: but can't see how it
can be. According to the lowest calcu-
Iation there must have been at least eight
living people buried under that stone.
There isn't word said about the grand
fathers which, to my mind, doesn't speak
we'll for the crowd. And il that is taken
into consideration, which the same is
with me. 1t is not surprising that things

Dear Sir: 1 have read your riddle on

just little bit more, so as to give little
more insight? Respectfully.

Answer Is Easy-But-

Dear Sir: Your riddle is interesting.
have some doubts in my mind which
want to clear up before 1 send in my
answer. The answer would be perfectly
easy if it were not for one or two diff
cuties which are In the way. Couldn't
you make it eight instead Of six under

how there could be two maidens If they
