Perpetual Youth.

What's the use OF growing old7
Not the slightest bit.
At threescore a man need not
Fold his arms and quit
That's what the professor says
Calm your doubts and fears.
You can just be starting in
At one hundred years.
II is easy. so they say
Who have never tried
Only need to have the rules
Thoroughly applied.
Just like falling off a log
Backward. they allow.
But they always die before
They have shown us how.
Once in every little while
Some one comes along
Who can beat the dying game
Or his guess is wrong.
He can tell you what to do
So you'll last and thrive
For century or two
And still be alive
What's the use of dying young.
Dropping of for keeps,
AT the age of ninety-two7
Hear them sigh. He sleeps"
You can spend some fifty more
Years OF pleasant ease.
As the tall Missourian says.
Show us. IL you please

In the case of the town gossip a little
knowledge is apt to be a slanderous
thing.
Some men regard the man who has
no troubles to be drowned as a truly
pitiable individual.
Lots of men who are always running
for office never seem to get anywhere.
Probably the greatest service doc
tor does is keeping us from being
scared to death.
The unpreparedness that sometimes
overcomes us in an emergency is at
tained in some cases only by much
preparation.
The mean things we didn't say don't
keep us awake nights, even If they
wont let US go to sleep.
Blessed. ah. blessed indeed, is it TO
give. more so than to receive. but how
about the poor mortal who can dc
neither?
Pride is very foolish thing, but It
is the foolish things of the world that
have made the most noise in it.

For a Gymna sum

The boys OF the Lexington High

gymnasium at the High School, and
they hope their friends will come
forward with ample funds for this
purpose.
In the erection of the new build
ing, funds we're not available for a
gymnasium, and now the students
OF the school appeal to their friends
for help. A well-equipped gymna-
stun is an important part of a we'll
ordered school, and it is hoped that
the appeal of the boys will meet
with proper response.
Contributions sent to L, Berkeley

Eotetourt County Agriculture
Fair a Success

The Fincastle Herald says the
Botetourt County Fair was sue
cess. Cannot this report stimulate
Rockbridge? Following is what the
editor of the Herald says:
The Twenty-Sx Annual Exhibi-
ton of the Botetourt Agricultural
Fair was a success, and the manage
ment of the Association deserve the
praise of every public spirited citi-
zen for the success OF their undertak
ing. The intelligent and progressive
farmers of Botetourt are to be CON-
mended for the interest they have
uniformly taken in this excellent
county institution. Botetourt is one
of the best counties in Virginia, our
peopleare progressive and energetic
and the interest they show in every
worthy enterprise speaks yolumns
in their favor, and the manner in
which they have sustained the
Botetourt Fair is indeed gratifying.
In the agricultural department,
the exhibits, while probably not
quite so extensive as on former &C.
cassions, were the best ever shown
in that building. Corn was king"
Judging from the great number of
splendid exhibits displayed. How.
ever, wheat, oats, potatoes, hay,
grass seed, etc., and all the pro-
ducts of the garden, made an excel
lent showing. There were ten en-
tries of Irish potatoes and twenty
seven entries of corn. The farm
and garden products generally we're
up to a high standard.
The display OF apples, which com.
prised many varieties, presented an
attractive picture. Botetourt is
noted for her splendid apple or
chards and fine fruit, and her repu-
tation was fully sustained at the |
Fair.
The handsome premiums offered |
on canned tomatoes brought to the
Fair this year the largest and most
attractive display of canned goods |
ever seen in the county, and every
one int, ested in the progress and
success of that great industry was !
proud of the showing.
