The distinguished members of

The distinguished members of the
Peace Society are always consistently
at work decrying the need Of increase
of military and naval armament. or
even, for the United States, of its
maintenance at its present strength,
One of the orators at recent meeting
said that Moral preparedness for war
makes war inevitable; moral PREPARED
ness for peace makes war impossible.
If we would prevent war we must dis
arm not only our hands, but our hearts.
American strength lies not in Lyddite
guns, but in Lincoln men" All this is
unQuesttonably true as an abstract
proposition. If war or peace were to
depend entirely upon the decision of
this nation we might safely disarm our
hands as soon as we disarm our hearts.
and a propagandism for the disarma-
ment Of both hearts and hands would
be IN order. But how about the other
fellows heart? If we, the people of
the United States. should get ourselves
into the condition in which we are
morally prepared for peace, and the
people Of some other nation should get
themselves into a condition in which
they were morally prepared for war
with us, our hearts would be but a poor
defense against their arms. Lincoln

BOARD TO EXAMINE

Applicants For License.

Special TO the Mems.
COLLINS, Miss, Nov. "a new
but interesting idea was advanced
here by Chancellor T. A. Wood from
the bench, when a young applicant for
license to practice law was being eX-
amined. His idea was for the leigs-
lature to establish an examining board
for applicants to practice law. He said
as it now stands many applicants do
not get the same examination that
others do, and thereby work hardships
on some while others get off easier
Under the present law of this state
the applicant is questioned in writing
by the chancellor to whom he applies
his answers forwarded by the examin
ing chancellor to another chancellor
of another district, and no system Of
questions or grading is used. The
chancellor urged the bar association:
to push the idea of establishing :
board to examine all applicants.

Joke on Col. Bill.

Col Bill, who died recently In Jones
county, Iowa, was pioneer legislator
merchant and banker of the vest
pocket variety.
1t was seldom that Col. Bill got
caught by a debtor, SO unerring was
his judgment of men, but his transac-
ton with old man Blankerton was an
into Col. Bill's ledger to the amount Of
$50, and finally balanced the account
with note.
When the paper was long time
overdue and there was no prospect of
a settlement, to the eminent disgust
of the colonel, he declared. with a
strong Anglo-Saxon emphasis, that he
would sell Blankerton's note for SO
cents on the dollar. The statement
was not long In reaching the ears OF
the maker of the note. He met the
colonel in the village street one day
and accosted him:
bill, heard you'd offered to sell my
not for so cents on the dollar"
Yes; l will"
will you sell 1t to me at thai
rate?"
"Yes, sir; I'll sell 1t to you at thai
rate"

note"

How They Kiss In France.

part in the United States and Eng
land, is implanted on the cheeks in
stead of the mouth. Children greet
or bid good-by to parents. husbands to
wives and f1ances to fiancees by kiss
Ing first one cheek and then the other.
Frenchmen apparently go on the
principle that If it is we'll to kiss at
all it is well to kiss in public, for the
sight of couples embracing each other
or walking with arms about each nth
er in the streets in broad daylight is
so common as to attract no attention
