n Paws to DO Riaht.

I've noticed-and don't sleep ex-
cent when | go to bed-I've noticed
that the people who come nearest to
bein' happy in this world are the ones
who come nearest to dom right. To
do right all the time, to do the square
thing by your friends and your enc
mics. by everybody as well as by
yourself, is a pretty hard proposition,
and there's mighty few-l doubt If
there's any-that succeed entirely. But
it's been my experience that 1t pays to
FRY and the dividends seem to be ex-
actly in proportion to the success,
We're all lookin' for happiness. We've
cot a good many different ideas about
what II is. but whatever 1t Is we want
II and If we've got boss sense we
want the brand that'l last the longest
an keen the best. That brand Is es-
pecially prepared and reserved for
those who do right, or as near right as
thew can. Nobody else can get even
= smell of IT. And there's no institu-
zion or agency thatll help man TO
,lo right like the church. It's got the
ripbt of way on the straightaway
track. It's got the road all surveyed
md charted. There's lots o people in
Tho church that we don't like. and
there's lots O. people in the church no
1oubt who don't like us. But take II
ali round the fact remains that the
,burch people are the best people not
,nlv in the spiritual but In the ma
.erial sense. Don't forget that.-Coio

10 the Editor OF The Herald:

To the Editor OF The Herald:
Win you please publish the enclosed
letter from the Vice President anC
Traffic Manager of the Nashville
Chattanooga & St. Louis Railroad Co
for the benefit OF our farmers. The
Maury County Farmers and Stock
Growers Association has its regular
meeting in Columbia, Monday. Nov
Sth, this will be a very interesting
and instructive meeting, because we
will have with us, under the influence
of the y, c. & st. L. R. R. manage
ment, some speakers of national rep
utation, capable of interesting and in
structing us on many farm problems.
| speak for them a good attendance
of our most progressive farmers.
The men who manage these great
railroads are business men; they are
men of information, they know what
improved progressive farming has
done for other parts of our country
and they are willing to encourage and
aid us farmers, in every possible way
to improve our system of farming so
that our farm products, of both stock
and grain, may be increased. They
know that with better farming in our
country larger profits will come TO the
farmer, and as a result of this the
traffic on their roads, both passenger
and freight, will be increased. These
far-seeing, level-headed business men
are not doing this from motives of
charity or pity for the Woodworking
farmer, but with them their help to
interest us in better system of farming
is strictly business. Then why cannot
we see that if it is good to increase
their business, it must increase ours
first. Then let us come and learn all
we can. Yours truly,
]. N. MERONEY.

NASHVILLE Tenn. Nov. l.
Vanderbilt showed the expected re
versal in form in the game with Mis-
sissippi Saturday, and the excellent
work of the latter aggregation held the
score to IL to in the Commodores'
favor The work of the McGugin
men was far from that displayed in
the Auburn game week ago. Nicely,
Griffin, Williams and in fact, most of
the team played good individual ball,
but the team work and the spirit and
dash were lacking.
Mississippi, on the other hand,
though fighting with no hope of vic
tory, played hard, consistent ball
through the entire game The work
of ends Mcdonald and Hathorne, was
especially on defensive
play, while the backfeld worked well
throughout the contest. In the first
half the Mississippi line appeared to
be somewhat weak in places, which
was largely responsible for Wander
bilt's three touchdowns. But in the
second half, this line gained strength
and the attack of the Commodores
was about fruitless. All the touch
downs were made in the first half and
In the second half the ball was first in
one end of the field, then in the other.

Were Duplicated.
Branham & Hughes swooped dowI
on Columbia Saturday afternoon for
the annual football debate, and when
the chesty Spring Hill aggregation
turned their prows toward home they
carried the scalp of the plucky Cadets.
The final score was B. & H. 10; C. NJ
A. 0.
The contest was devoid of spectac-
ular plays. There were no sixty yard
dashes, no plunges through the line
for heavy gains, no exceptional toe
work. But it was, nevertheless, a foot
ball game of the kind that thrills, and
it was not so one-sided as the score in
dicates. From the start to the finish
it was a fight for supremacy, with
both antagonists exerting every mus
Gle and resource, with the result al
ways in doubt
The real feature of the contest was
the Improvement in playing shown by
the Cadets. Instead of being discour-
aged by a series of disastrous defeats,
they have grittily buckled down to
work, and are now in real fighting
trim, capable of making a showing
against any prep team in the state.
With one more weeks practice they
would in all probability have turned
Saturdays tide of defeat.
Fraser, at right end, did exceptional
lily good work for the locals, flustrat-
ing every attempt to carry the oval
through the territory that he guarded.
But the individual work of the whole
team was good. Time and again they
held the heavy B. & H. line for downs
on the last yard line and never did
they show anything that could have
been mistken for the white feather.
Tolley, who was substituted for Mad
dox in the last half, made several good
gains for his team, and showed much
promise as a ball player.
The first touchdown was made by
the visitors sixteen and one-half min
ltes after play was begun. Clarke
carried the ball over after a desper-
ate attack upon the Cadet line. Dill
ard missed goal. Less than two min
ties later Tarpley, who plays left end

MAKES POINT OF ORDER.
Representative Kiefer Objects to Re-
storing Marines to Ships.

The provision in the naval appropriation
bill restoring the Marine Corps to duty
on ships of the United States Navy.
which was inserted by the naval commit
tee was knocked out of the bill during
consideration this afternoon on point of
order by Representative Kiefer of Ohio
Mr. Kiefer had no more than got the
words out of his mouth making the point
of order when Representative Foss of
Illinois, chairman of the naval COMMITTEES
and in charge of the bill, jumped to his
feet. waved his hands and remarked: l
concede it.
The provision being in the class of new
legislation was susceptible TO point or
order.
1t is probable that the provision restor-
ing the Marine Corps to sea duty VIII
be replaced in the bill after the measure
is reported from committee of the whole
and is in the House for final vote.
When the chair announced that the
point of order had been sustained Rep
resentative Slayden of Texas jumped to
his feet.

navy don't want them and they are
spurned by the army.
