THOSE MODEST COUNTY CANDI-
DATES.

Before great while The Herald
will bunch together the names of
the several fellows who are being
whispered about as being in the
Willing CotLmn" for the various
portfolios of Greene County in the
coming political contest to open
early in 1911. Whats news along
that line will be all we shall give u
more current circulation. We have
po desire to precIpitate the cam
paign nor do we believe such a run
ming mention will do so. Some who
have bees buzzing about their bon
nets may never get stung hard e.
nough to essay the role of candidate,
while others will surely be found
authorizing us withthe proper fee
accompaniment, erethe opening of
Spring, to declare their intention
to Democracy in Old Greene. IT we
miss coupling some fellows name
with an Office uponwhich he is
casting a longing eye. remember
that candidates are both modest
and timid now, and we may have
failed to hear of your inclination.

BOYS. NEVER SWEAR.

1t is vulgar, altogether too low for
a decent boy.
1t is foolish. want of decency is
want of sense.
1t is cowardly-implaying fear of
not being believed or obeyed.
1t is contemptible-forfelting the
respect OF all the wise and good.
1t is offensive to delicacy
and extremely unfit for human ears.
1t is mean. A boy Of high moral
standing would almost as soon steal
sheep as swear.
1t is abusive-to the mind which
conceives the oath to the tongue
which utters it, and to the person at
whom it is aimed.
1t is venomous- showing a boy S
heart to be a nest of vIpers, and
every time he swears one OF them
sticks out his head.
1t is Misunderstanding the divine
law and provoking the displeasures
of Him who will not hold him guilt
less who takes his name in vain:
1t is ungentlemanly. a gentleman,
according to Webster, is genteel
man, we'll bred, refined. Such a man
will no, more swear than go into the
street to throw mud with chimney
sweep.

THE PEOPLES FORUM.
SOME RANDOM OBSERVATIONS
On Duties And Aspirations.

Yesterday is past and the dawn OF
another bright day has appeared.
Somehow | feel like using my pen
just little this morning if it will be
of any interest or good to the public.
Perhaps it is the victory in our Con-
gressiOnal Election that has aroused
my aspiration. May the men who
cast their votes for the man who is to
represent our district never have
cause to regret. From the reputa-
ton Mr.. Harrison as, he will con-
tinue to lengthen his friendship and
trust, wherever he goes.
Many man is competent of dis
charging legal and other duties which
confrOnts him in his office, but there
is still more, or should be-. demanded
of men who are put in public trust,
That is God fearing man, a man of
integrity, who will never shirt a duty
above all u christian. Then there
would not Ue 50 much mud sling
ing through the Press, the bribing
business would be cut out, and many Il
woman 5 headache would cease. Give
us the man who has the power to
possess himself To Lhil t ownself be
true.
Our boy 5 and girls need to bestir
themselves and do as Pat" has
done: climb bigher-tbe Way is broad
aud easy is they will only accept the
opportunity. / dOu t mean strewn
with flowers, bat where an effort is
put forth something is going to be
accomplished. All! the possibilities
that is ever before the energetic
youth. Perhaps you may never go
to congress but What ever vocation
in lie we choose let it be one of honor,
the man between the pillow handles
or driving oxens is sometimes far
more honorable than some one to
whom we haye intrusted our Govern
mGnt, or the Bank key. We all can
not fill places where our names will
go down in history, but let us work
and act SO our nameS will be written
in the Book of Life. Let the parents
begin to live as they would have
their children live, see more about
your school teacher S character and
moral life while you are looking after
where they were graduated. School
teachers yie:d a great influence oyer

As to our immediate vicinity we
are getting on first rate, there has
been some sickness in several families
hut all are about we'll now, except

be numbered on the well list.

NEUROLOGICAL.
LEONARD CHILDS DEAD.
Janet, Miss,
Sept. Is, 1910

Chronicle (Ala.) Gail.
Leonird Childs, whom we mention
ed two weeks ago as being injured by
a falling timber near Leakesville, is
dead.
The injury did not at first seem at
all serious, but Tuesday symptoms
of serious brain trouble developed
and he was taken to Mobile that eve
ming on the south bound, it being
the attention to operate as the last
means of saving his life. He was ac-
companied by his aged father and
DR.. Pool, the family physician, but
just as he was being placed in the
ambulance at the station in Mobile
the last breath was drawn and he
passed to another world.
Chronicle, almost as a community,
was interested in Leonard Childs.
More than once he had tramped a.
cross the woods from LeakeSVllle,
Miss, to be at our Chatauqua, al
ways governing his visits by the best
educational d moral features.
Struggling against poverty and lack
of earlier advantages he was working
his way thru the high school at
Leakesville. Geo. Stuart met him
here and had told him he would help
him he would help him when he had
finished at Leakesyille. He was oil
"a deeply religious nature and on his
trips here always carried his Bible.
His plans here are changed. They
were placed in the care of his Heav-
enlv Father, and therefore all is
well. Leonard little dreamed when
here last spring at Chautauqua that
the end of his earthly life was sc
near. The world can i'll afford tc
lose such characters, but it must
sometimes be.

OBITUARY.
CLIFF TURNER.

No. 2.
The death angel visited the home
of Mr.: and Mrs. ]. B.. Turner and
took from them their little son Cliff
aged two years, five months and
twenty four days; he was born Feb
ruary 28th, 1908, and died August
22nd, 1910. He was burned to death
in trying to light amp early one
morning, he only lived 10 hours.
Brother Alex Breland of Nicely,
Miss, conducted the funeral services.
Charley Byrd, Albert Harrison.
Mitchell Byrd and Forrest Breland
were the pail bearers.
Little Cliff was bright beautiful
child and loved by every one who
knew him. 1t was awful sad to have
to give him up, but when God calls
we have to submit. 1t seems awful
hard to nave to give one of these lit
tie innocent lambs up, but God works
in mysterious way and does all
things for thu best
We know that we will never again
see little Cliffs face on earth, but
then We have one good consolation
ard that Is that we shall meet him
again some sweet day on the sunny
banks of the sweet deliverance, where
no parting will ever come; there is
no sorrow there but all is happiness,
JOY and peace. This my friends may
be \ warning to some OF us that we
are not living as close to our great
Redeemer Us we should and that he
called the little one away to draws US
nearer to him.
Weep not sad hearts.
And cease repining
Behind the cloud the sun is shining,
Thy fate is the common fate of all
Unto each life some rain uSt fall
Some days must be dark and drealy.

FaVors Adopting D0g-Tax Law.

There is now going on in the COL
umns of the Greene County Herald
a discussion in regard to the respec
tive values of dogs and sheep. We
think such discussions are likely to
do the country very great deal o
good. We want to say here and now
tho that we are decidedly on the
sheep'side of the question. We think
the country and our town is over
stocked with worthless dogs that
are good for nothing but to pilfer
and do meaness. These half starved
species of canine quadrupeds mostly
inhabit around the colored quarters.
Their chief benefit is to form decora-
tions around the quarters, to raise
prodigious yells on certain occasions,
and to pilfer hen nests or ANYTHING
else they can and as maximum &c
invade a flock of sheep doing all the
dirt that their sneaking nature leads
them to. We believe that heavy
tax should be put on dogs regulated
| in such a manner as to make it i'm
practical for the average family tt
own more than one dog. Perry

AUTO COLLIDES WITH
TRAIN OF CAULDRONS
Two Women and Man Burned
TO Death.

Chicago, Sept. 9.-Two women and
man were burned to death in
South Chicago when the auto In
which they were riding and were
speeding at the rate of 20 miles an
hour collided with train of three
moving cauldrons of molted metal
and Stag on One Hundred and Fourth
street, near an entrance to the I'LL
nois Steel company's plant. A third
woman was seriously but not fatally
burned. The auto was owned and
driven by Peter Lesterhouse, a con.
tractor. Sitting In front beside him
was his wife. In the rear seats were
Miss Anna Baker, Mrs. Lesterhouse's
sister, and Mrs. Blanche Hunt,
friend.
The Lesterhouse party had been
out for two hours and were return
Ing home. The machine was cross
ing One Hundred and Fourth street
at high speed when the train OF caul-
drons steamed out OF the steel works.
The usual illumination shot lp from
the mouth OF the great pots. Lester
house apparently paid no attention TO
the. danger ahead. When he did. IL
was too late.
Miss Baker jumped and escaped
with serious burns. The machine hit
one OF the big pots with the force OF
catapult. The molten mass shot
upward like geyser and descended
In howers on the trio, who lay bleed
ing and wounded beside the wrecked
car, The impact had tossed Mr.. and
Mrs. Lesterhouse and Mrs. Hunt out
OF the car and into the path of the
molten shower They were instantly
burned to death.
