does pay so per cent more tor bis
sugar than the Inhabitants Of Great
Britain aud1mauages still to put some
moneyin the bank IS not sufficient
reason for contributing 50 milliTrs
per an 1um TO the sugar trust with its
management of thieves.
Because we are strong and virile
people with resources almost beg ond
the reach Of human imagination is no
reason why We should be asked to
pay tribute to commercial highway
men.
A few weeks ago a we'll known
Kansas man was visiting in Europe.
Before starting on This trip he was
presented with a steamer rug made in
America which cost $3.50. When
he arrived 10 London he purchased
another steamer rug as good in quail
lty and make as the American rug for
81 so. Acareful estimate Of the diff
ference in the cost of labor on the
American rug and the English made
rug slowed it to be about Sl.25 or
possibly $3.50. The other $3.50 was
tribute to the American manufac-
turer.
Herbert'S argument is that because
the American was able to pay the
$3.50 and still prosper, the law
which forces him to pay it is, there
fore justihable. The ability of Amer.
cans to pay has absolutely nothing to
do with the case. OF course there is
prosperity in this country. So is
there prosperity in the city Of New
York Notwithstanding the fact that a
corrupt government has robbed the
city of hundreds Of millions Of dollars
Apply Herbert's argument to that
great city. Here it is: "You are
prosperous, There is no place in
the world where so high wages are
paid as in your great city Of New
York, There is no city where sgSb
gigantic fortunes are being piled up
and no place where there is such an
abundance Of wealth. Therefore,
why kick Let the robbers take their
toll. Let the hooters loot, for the
gravy Of prosperity is coursing down
your cheeks"
No, Kansas is not drunk again, as
Mr.. Herbert asserts. Kansas i.
sober and clothed in her right mind,
Kansas is willing to contribute out Of
her abundance TO maintain the wages
of American workmen, but when a
fat-bellied, double. chinned trust mag
nate comts to her with bis servants
in livery aud demands that she con.
tribute to him as the representative Of
labor she demands in turn that she
be shown that the laborer and not the
trust magnate gets the benefit of her
conuibulion.-Tom McNeal in The

IN MEMORIUn.

Died, after a brief illness of
pneumonia, at Galloway College,
Searcy, Arkansas, Tuesday morn
ing, January 26, 1909; at 6
O'Clock, Miss Grace Lewis, daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. A. G. Lewis,
aged 81 years.
The sad news of Miss Grace's
sudden death cast shadow over
the whole community, for most of
her short but happy life was spent
among us, and every heart was
touched with sympathy for the
stricken ones, from whose Preside
the light had fed. For many
bright, sunny years not only had
she been the joy and comfort of
the home, now left empty and
deso1ate, but her sweet, womanly
presence brought a wealth of sun
shine and happiness into the lives
of the entire community. We feel
the emptiness of human words IN
times of bitter sorrow. Yet He
who "has borne our griefs and
carried our sorrows" will comfort
and sustain.
During her school days in Gal
loway College Miss Grace's sweet
face and winsome ways won the
hearts of both teachers and stu
dents.
Rev. J. r. Nelson conducted the
services at the Methodist church in
this city and the sweet solemn mu-
sic of the choir touched every
heart. Loving hands tenderly
laid the form to rest in the Fakes
cemetery north of McCrory, the
somber sky and rustling leaves be-
ing in true accord with the solemn
scene. Yet above all came the
comforting thought that the gentle
daughter was spared earth's cares
and sorrows, that her memory but
forms another cord to draw her
loved ones to the brighter home
beyond.

WATCH US GROW

The NEWS this week greets its
readers with an eight page paper.
This increase in size is made at
considerable expense, but is in
keeping with our determination to
give the people of Woodruff Coun-
ty the very best home paper they
can get anywhere at any price.
Our busy season is now on, when
our business people demand more
of our space for advertising pur-
poses, and in order to accommodate
them and at the same time not re-
duce the amount of reading mat
ter we give our subscribers, we
have added the four extra pages,
just doubling the size.
A little less than a year ago
other publishers found it necessary
either to cut down expenses by re-
ducing the size of their paper, or to
increase the subscription price. We
chose neither of the two but kept
up giving the people good paper
without an increase in price or a
decrease in size and we have no
cause to regret it. With the SUBJ
scription price OF $1.O0 per year,
we have beer able to keep the pa
per up to it's former standard and
even improve upon it in the
amount of home news given our
readers.
Many interesting features have
been added with the extra four
pages, among which is a most fas-
cinating serial story, "Rosalind at
Red Gate" which begins in next
issue.
But we refrain from further
comment, believing that the paper
will best speak for itself. If you
like the paper, if you think it is
worth the price of subscription,
speak a good word for it when the
opportunity affords. Many Of our
subscribers have neighbors and
friends who take no county paper.
Show them an occasional copy and
ask them to subscribe. The price
each week is less than the cost of a
postage stamp, and no citizen can
afford to be without the paper and
the news it brings you from all
sections of the county.

Miss Grace Lewis, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. A. G. Lewis, was
born Dec, 8, 1887. From early
childhood she had made her home
with her sister, Mrs. Lena Cant,
of Harrisburg, Ark. Very early
in life she was converted and join

for her a large place in the affec-
tons of all who knew her. She
was devoted christian, and had
an abiding love for the church,
and was much concerned in the
great work of missions perfected
by the church.
She graduated in the High
School at Harrisburg and after
ward entered Galloway College, at
Searcy lat the time of her death
was in her third year. Her ex-
animation papers show marks of
rapid advancement, and always
came with the word of encourage
ment, that Miss Grace is among
the best.
She was loved by the faculty,
and all the students, and over
Galloway College today there
hangs dark cloud of sorrow be-.
cause of her departure.

To the University MissOurian:
Did you ever stop to think just
why you carried off your neighbOr's

Halloween? Didn't you feel little

you had done it? Or did you have
inward satisfaction all the while, even
the next morning when you saw the
owner poking about to set his property
iright? Don't you think you would
have felt bit more comfortable the
next time you met that neighbor if
;ou had let his property alone and
lad gone to some innocent Halloween
party?

medical department of this university
in 1H45. The school was discontinued
shortly before the Civil War, but was
re-established in Columbia in 1872.
The curriculum. at first two years.
was increased to three years in 1891.
and TO four years in lS99 The limita
tions for clinical work in Columbia
caused the temporary suspension OF
the last two years. which consisted OF
clinical work. during this school year.
To anyone who does the first two
years work is given certificate
which is accepted by the best medical
schools in the country, where the
course may be completed. The work
done during the first two years is done
in conjunction with the College OF Arts
and Science, so that in four years
student may also get the A. B.
degree. 1t is done more thoroughly
than that of most other medical
schools and higher standards are
