AS long as a man is abused he can
console himself with the reflection
that he is not a dead one. It is only
for the dead that there is universal
praise.

Resolutions of Respect.

In the death of Brother B. T.
Nichols. Eureka Local No. 7O8. is
grieved to her brim.
Brother Nichols was one of her
best members. Loyal to Unionism
to the letter; always standing for
right, his place in the Union cannot
be filled-it is vacant.
We fully realize his vacant chair
here means an occupied chair in the
blissful shores where no loss can be
sustained.
Thus shall the Christian die,
SO bright his smile appears
That death itself shall be illumined
And love shall cast out fear.
Therefore be it Resolved, That
Monroe county has lost one of her
best citizens, and the community a
useful and noble man.
Resolved further, That a copy of
these resolutions be sent to the
Union Advocate, one to the county
paper for publication, one put on
the Local minutes, and one to the
bereaved family.
Respectfully submitted,
B. n. EDENs,
A. L. BRYAN,

The automobile should be bene-
fcent invention. Properly used, it
is safer than a horse-drawn vehicle.
1t can be guided more accurately
and stopped more quickly. 1t knows
neither fright nor fatigue. OF pro-
per weight and speed and when
unprovided with spikes or chains it
does not destroy the roads. For
trucking, for use as a farm wagon,
for omnibus work and as a pleasure
vehicle the automobile should be
invaluable. Such use of it already
is made, but the speed-maniacs,
who destroy the roads. who try to
kill bridge tenders and policeman
and who do in so many cases kill
themselves and others have badly
hurt great industry. Neither on
track nor road has the high power
auto any legitimate function. 1t is
an express engine running wild,
without guiding rails. protected
crossings or safety Signals thing
unthinkable. Prudent men who
use autos for pleasure or business
are at the mercy of the maniacs. =

LETTER TO j. w. JORDAN,
Aberdeen, Miss

Dear Sir: One of the wavs to get
rich is to make quarter look like
thirty cents.
There's a better: make it thirty
cents. It has this advantage: one
keeps out of jail.
There are 200 paint manufacturers
making quarters look like 80 40 so go
cents and all the odd cents between.
That is. their paints" profess to be
paints; and they are, in about the
proportions named: they 80 to so cts.
for a quarter worth; some get 10.
There's better way TO paint: De-
voc. There are eight honest paints.
By s'honest," we mean not-adultera-
ted and full-measure. These honest
ones differ; no two are alike. In one
the quarter is worth 81 or 28 cents; in
another, 80 cents; there must be a
best one in eight; it is the one that
takes least gallons to cover job
Devoe.
To cover; that seems light way TO
speak of a paint. No, it isn't. That
is what paint is for: to cover. 1t
means to hide and protect. The paint
that goes furthest is best, wears long
est. Gc-far is all; and Devoe is the
go-far paint.
Yours truly,

DDITOR WEEKLY
The writer desires to inform the
public that an announcement made
in the papers last week, advertising
vaudeville in connection with an en-
tertainment given by one of ST.
Johns guilds, was inserted without
authority. The Church is more
careful of the character of her en-
tertainments than such an adver-
tisement would suggest.

Furloughs in the G.. p. o.
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor or ne Star:
In The Star of June 8 appeared an arti-
Gle concerning the furloughing of govern
ment printing Office employees. There is
no disputng the fact that furloughing
has been in order since the latter part of
April last, and also that the employees Of
one section of the Office, the monotype
division, have been the principal suffer-
ers. 1t sounds good to the 'old timer. "
the one who is supposed to know the 'ins
and outs of the big printery, owing to
his long term of service. to make state
ment that the employees are better OFF
under the present system than they were
formerly when the dull summer days
came along.
They used to lie around and starve all
summer" continues this veteran en-
ploye with no work whatever to do. If
half loaf Is better than none, three
quarters of a loaf has shade on the
half. according TO my way OF thinking.
Now this kind of language sounds very
musical and sweet to such an old vet
eran: one of the old timers who probably
has never lost a day unless on account
OF sickness; one who has never lent a
helping hand to those in distress or to
those who "lie around and starve all
summer.
By some mysterious connivance these
regulars and steady workers manage
10 hang on 10 their jobs year after year.
not knowing the great pleasures derived
from a three-day or an indefinite fur
Tough.
The men who have suffered most from
these furloughs are hard, industrious and
