WHAT you do to-day is going to have part in determining what you will do in the next crisis of your life. It may be to- day, commonplace though it seems, is the time of real crisis, while the so-called crisis, later on, will only evidence the way in which you met the present :, unsupported, critical test. As Dean Bosworth, of Oberlin, has said: "No man gets ready for an emergency in a moment. What he is Tn an emergency is deter mined by what he has regu- larly been doing for a long time." Whether or not the high jumper clears the bar at six feet four, when the contest has narrowed down to himself and one other man, and the intercollegiate cham pionship now depends upon his ability to keep his feet and knees an eighth of an inch clear of the bar as he goes over it for his third and last trial, depends no more than upon what he does in that tense last moment of his effort upon what he has been doing in the entire college year preceding this climax. The man who has a habit of measuring up to the needs of crucial test has, long before, deliberately begun and built up the habit of every day victory in ttif1e same kind kind el a test. One days training is shirked at fearful risk.-Sunday School Times.

LATELY good many people are becoming fly crazy. They say that not single fly should be permitted to enter a house, as it is capable of distributing g twenty millions of disease germs. Flies are a nuisance and unclean and should be kept out of the house as much as possible. But this is as great an impossibility can be imagined. It is a fact that many of the healthiest men and women have been living for thousands of years among flies so numerous that the children kept them off the dining table by means of waving a peach tree switch over it.

THERE will be another effort made in the next Congress to establish postal saving banks and an equally strong effort made to defeat the measure, so that it is uncertain whether what a very large majority of the citizens of the United States wants will become law or not. The trouble is the majority do not have a voice in the halls of Congress on the final passage. It is probable that conflicting interest will prevent it becoming a law unless the President gives it his active support, punishing opponents and rewarding sup porters, which he has the power to do and which is sometimes exercised.

THE LOCAL MARKET .
Beautiful T ribute

Concerning the death of Mrs. Ella May, whose remains were recently received here for inter- ment at Connor, the Nampa (Idaho) Leader Herald says:
 In the evening at fifteen minutes past nine, July Both, Mrs. Ella May, wife of John May, residing four miles west of Nampa on the boulevard, lifted the veil of the valley and shadow, and is thence forth sleeping the sleep of death. Five days before her death she passed the milestone that marked her 18th year. Her remains were transported to the home of her childhood, Connor, Arkan- sas, where she rests under the same trees and among the same birdsongs of her earlier life. Physicians made a hard fight for her life. The last few days were filled by terrible suffering. She died of blood poisoning following the birth of girl baby.
 Her last words were tender and filled with Christian faith and fortitude. The long -looked-for vision came to her and with it the rest incidental to the life that is perfectly reconciled. She bade farewell to husband and new born babe, waved the parting at the river to those she loved and dropped off into that dreamless sleep. A few hours be- fore the dissolution she sang clear and beautifully her favorite hymn and longing for the coming of the ferryman. Once when it seemed that her husband could not come from the field before she would pass away she left him the sweetest message of all: "Tell John died loving him still."
 Funeral services conducted in the home grove and under the trees, amid many of her friends, by B. w. Rice.
 The bereaved husband, together with Fay Bernice, the baby girl, have taken lodging with James Bumgarner, a neighbor.
 Her beautiful death was it's sweet ness, which has fallen like a benedic- tion over the neighborhood where she was so well known and so completely loved.

PARENTS should not overlook the fact that great deal depends on them when the education of their children is considered. The teacher can instruct them if they go to school, but the par ents are responsible if they fail to attend. The children have little judgment as to when they should enter school and the regularity of their attendance, hence the parents should be the judge in these things and should give this matter serious consider ation.

Better Behavior Needed

After quite long season of reasonably good behavior, it seems that a reign of terror, so to speak, has broken out in Green Forest.
 Two or three episodes that would have done "credit" to a town of saloons have been enact- ed during the past week.
 It is reported that whiskey was peddled right and left in town on last Sunday and the result was very apparent on the streets that evening, several ii T t-c la s drunks being in evidence.
 There is rightfully indignant feeling among the people against the vendors of so-called native wine. Gallons of the stuff are be- ing sold to the boys and others about town and the drunks pro- duced are entirely too boisterous for polite society.
 Manufactures of wine, who seek profit by selling it for the purpose it is used about Green Forest, are about as useful to the community as common boot leggers and should be accorded the same kind of treatment.
 It looks like a rare opportunity is afforded the officers of the law to do their sworn duty.
 The attention of the Prosecut- ing Attorney is also invited in this direction.

Nearly all the merchants, business men and professiona al men including teachers and physicians of the town were raised in the country.
