THE VALUE OF A SLOGAN.

A city's slogan is its trademark
1t is its whole advertisement, all, OF
its talking points in condensed form
The first to attract, the last to be
forgotten, is a good slogan.
1t is therefore important that Co
lumbia with its boosting spirit should
have good slogan.
Secretary Cauthorn's call for sug
gestions should bring forth spontane
GUS results.
Every one who has Columbia s
growth at heart should send in a
slogan that he thinks will appeal
Genuine enthusiasm always has good
results.

Honest Kentucky Mountaineers.

Postoffice Inspector Fletcher, sta
toned in Indianapolis, recently re-
turned from an official tour through
the widest mountain districts of Ken
lucky with a high opinion of the
mountaineers. He says they will
divide their last crust with stranger
and are thoroughly honest. "'Despite
the fact that there are many feuds
and the people kill each other, a
stranger is perfectly safe among
them," declares Mr.. Fletcher. "-As
there are no banks in the mountain
districts, the money sent them for
their logs and other products is by
registered letter; consequently they
place every safeguard about the mails
There is one thing they won't stand
and that is to have their mail inter

GETTING 4 CLEAR NOTION OF
THINGS.

Whenever an architect undertakes
to make building he begins by draw
ing the plans in order to get a cleal
conception Of what the finished struc
ture viii look like.
in either case the purpose is to get
cIeac notion Of thirgs-to see how
things really look.
ClearAess is essential in everything
But clearness comes only through
clear understanding. Every individual
ought to make an effort tc see clearly.
Many OF the failures in life are
caused through the inability of per
sons to see clearly. They do not look
ahead. They drift aimlessly along in
the dark, seeing no farther ahead than
the points of their noses.
The student or the business man
who has not organized things or has
not seen things in their entirety,
should stop to get clear notion of
how the land lies. Success is due the
man who thinks and sees with a clear
head and gets notion of things as
they really are.
