Break Away from Work,

Our business men ought to break
away from trade exactions long be-
fore they do-ought to do so as a mat

rather than of physical necessity,
writes A. Barton Hepburn in the Cen.
fury. They ought to get and give
more enjoyment in life; they ought to
do less for self and more for others;
they ought to live more in books and
more in the open and less at their
desks, and realize better health and
longer lives as a result. More and
more culture in all its forms is ex-
ercising a growing influence, which
must manifest itself in lessened eff.
fort along the lines of money-getting,
and the devotion of more time on the
part of our business men to the pur.
suits which naturally accompany forti.
fed leisure. Aristotle said "the end
of labor is to gain leisure" and Arts

and best hours Of the day for labor,
Americans, in this manner, would OBJ,
tain what those in England greatly
enjoy today, namely, two additional
hours Of light.
This would leave the same number
Of hours for business and sleep "a
now, and would give two better houra
for the days work, and two addt
tional hours of daylight to the even,

to be Of much benefit to those living
any considerable distance from their
place Of business, and, as the hours
after business are the only portion Of
the week day devoted to pleasure and
exercise the frightening Of same

Thousands Of families would, under
these circumstances, move into the
country or suburbs, who r now held
back by the fact that the men at the
present time could not reach their
homes until too late to get much bene-
fit from a move of this kind.
As elderly persons and children are
given to early rising. the breakfast
hour will become regular, and
many annoyances of today will be
avoided, and, during the heated term,
It should prove Of special benefit to
the school children.
AS a rule, nearly every proposed
rule, law, or custom works q positive
injury or hardship to many who club
together and bring about much oppo.
sition; this delays and discourages

this case, as no property is destroyedor
deprecicated, no one can be interested II

changes that could be made to benefit
all citizens of each and every state
In exactly the same proportion, and
not call for the expenditure of money
by the government, state, or people.
To be beneficial and not confusing
it is necessary that the law or custom
become universal throughout the
United States. It has no political sig
nifcance, so all may lend their aid tt

Remember that millions in England
for centuries, have been accustomed

ditional hours for recreation yourself

FINLEY VS.. HOPE.

The Hope second team jour
neyed to Finley Tuesday and
brought a game home in their
pockets by a score Of 5 to 1. The
game was not a sensational one
although there was some good
playing on both sides. The only
time when Finley had a show
was in the fifth inning when they
got three men on Bases and no
one out. Our boys frightened up
however and there was nothing
doing. Tillotson pitched for the
locals.

that record price has been paid in
