For this ishue of the Bugle we
take our editorial pen in hand to
write a Termed editorial on the sub
jecEt of Human Energy and What
It's Good For"
This subjeckt has been sujjested
to us by the Bingville Bugle motto
which has appeared in this news
paper for 10, these many years past
the meaning of which we have had
to explain so often to Our subscrib-
ers that it has become turrible mo-
inotonous and so we take this means
of explaining it in print so as here
after folks wont allus be asl1in us
what it means and pesterin US to
deth from time to time by foolish
kwestshions.
You will find this motto at the
head Of this ishue of the Bugle
where it has been ever sinst the
Bugle was started. When the
Bugle was started we felt that we
ort to have some kind of a motto
to print each week like other first
class newspapers have-kind OF a
trademark as you might say and so
we aslt old Simon Whitaker who
was at that time teacher of the
Bingville school to get us up a mot
to. Well, Slime he done it and
brung the motto to the office and
explained to us that it was latin and
SO we put it in the paper and there
| it has stuck ever sinst. In the
meantime Slime has went to his last
reward, but the motto still appears
right under the bee at the head of
this newspaper as folders:
'TNERGIA FATUM PART" "
This is latin for Energy begets
sucksess." Some of our subscrib-
ers has went and got this motto
turrible twisted in the past. Hold
! Peters tor lrStantS once aSkt us
if it didn't mean that Nothing
suckseeds like sucksess" and when
we told Hold it didn't he was a good
cal surprised. Then there was Cy
Hoskins-Cy he once wanted to
know of US il "Inergia fatum
part" didn't mean, Energy fattens
the parrot" When Cy askt us that
we was simply disguised with his
ignorunts and told him so rite to
his face and eyes. But then what
can you expeckt of chap like Cy
who amt never been further away
from home than the co. seat and
amt scarsely got enuff ejjicashion
to read and write his own name
You can't expect much, can you
mo, you can't. You can't expeckt
ICY to be able to read latin-Cy he
don't know any more about latin
Ikhan he does about liberality being
as he is one of the tightest wads II
