According to the last census Ken

TIE area is 40,400 square miles
40G Of which is water. The streams
within the State, as rule head in the
Southeast and fowin a Northwcsterly
direction; this fact retarded the con-
struction Of railroads and the devel-
opnent of our resources for many
years.
The early railroads were built from
the East and went over the more
level territories North of the Ohio
River and South of the Cumberland
Mountains. In those days there was
only a limited demand for coal and
lumber. Now that the demand has in
creased. Ii would seem that
kind providence has held in
reserve our almost inexhaustible util-
tiles until time when they are most
needed by the country. Our supply
of timber is limited, but there is
enough to last for many years to
come.
We have coal area Of over fifteen
thousand square miles. Other min
erals await development.
Natural gas and oil, in paying
quantities are being developed in
many localities.
There are no more bad people in
Kentucky than in other States in pro-
portion to population. Good people
regardless of politics or religion, are
always welcome.

In Greek mythology, Narcissus is a
beautiful youth, a son of Cephissus,
and the nymph Liriope metamor-
phosed into a flower. For his insen-
sibility to love he was caused, by
Nemesis, to fall in love with his own
image reflected in the water. Unable
to grasp the shadow, he pined away
and became the flower which bears
his name. The nymph Echo. who
vainly loved him. died of grief.
