1T is reported that one woman has
uttered curse upon another wo-
- man with whom she is offended.
Now, in olden times, curses were
supposed to blight the lives of those
they fell upon; but in the light OF
modern Truth, we find they fly home
to roost," and eventually wither the
lips which utter them.
I would have no least fear of being
cursed; but I would walk under a
shadow of terror if in a moment or
blind anger I allowed myself to wish
evil to befau my worst foe, or refused
to lend him helping hand if he ask
ed for it and 1 knew L could aid him
wisely.
That does not mean that 1 would
seek a close association or comrade-
ship with some one who had wropged
me, or that 1 would continue to confer
favOrs upon the ungrateful or dishon-
est
Your Motive the Thing.
There are people who can only be
really helped by letting them alone.

Ex-Gov. Bob Taylor OF Tennessee
was once entertaining a northern
guest, who was rather skeptical about
the prevailing dialect in stories Of
southern negroes. He thought it over

Mr.. Taylor laughingly made wager

would be unable to interpret the Ian

Accordingly, they set out and present

"Weh he?"
Tho negro blinked his eyes stolidly.
and then answered in cultural
voice:
"Wah who?"-Everybody's.

To the New Year

oh child New Year, on whom the mantle falls
OF the departing year. who leaves to thee.
The labors, tasks, the duties and the calls
Which are the herlooms of the past to be
precious trust the heritage of time,
How will thou face the future all alone?
How front the foes of sin. and vice, and crime,
Which muster round with force and might un.
known?
Take courage, child of time be not dismayed,
Equip thysef with faith and hope and love,
And seek for strength and wisdom from above;
With these to help thee never be afraid.
Go forth with gladness thine untrod way,
And strength will come to thee from day to day.

young man who is prominent In
,rch work in Philadelphia tells this
about his nephew:
Harold is the youngsters name, and
next door lives another boy by the
name of Dewey They are each seven
years old and like most children of
their age are disposed to get into mis-
chief as often as possible. Several
days ago they found mans coat lying
on the front pavement while the own
er was fixing gas main. From the
pockets of the coat the two boys abb
stracted several tickets, and when
Harold's mother found 1t out she made
him return the tickets and explained
the sin which he had committed,
warning him to pray that he be for
given that night He obeyed, and
while on his knees added prayer for
Dewey as well.
The next night Harold's mother was
in the next room when he said his
prayers, and she heard him ask God to
forgive Dewey for stealing piece of
cake. On the following evening he
again was moved to ask forgiveness
for his friend, this time for stealing
three pieces Of candy. Apparently his
patience was exhausted, for the next
evening his mother was in the adjoin-
ing room when he offered his evening
prayer, and this is what she heard:
Gosh darn 1t, God, I have done the
best l could for Dewey. l guess you
will have to watch him yourself."-

of the year the duty Of work is celebrated In the
home the children strive to show to their parents

BE NOT DECEIVED.

Next Tuesday is election day and
it is the duty of every good citizen
to 60 to the polls and vote. and
when you vote. vote for your own
interest and for the officials whom
you believe are honest and viii
faithfully discharge the duties of
their Office. Do not be deceived
by some of the willy trixters who
have been paid big salary to go
around and fool the people where
they can. Remember they are be-
ing well paid for what they are do
ing and they have many years ago
had their consciences scared and are
prepared politicians ready to under
take and do almost anything in or
der to earn their money. Remember
the old saying. Everything is fair
in politics and war" This is the
principle they work on. It is an easy
matter for them to tell US how to /,
vote and Whit We should do and
then leave and We perhaps viii
never see them again. They do not
live here. neither do they ever in
tend to. bat 60 from place to place,
telling the voters what they are hired
to tell them, perhaps one thing at
one place and a different thing in
some other locality. Remember
that the professional politician lays
aside his conscience. his principle, (
his honesty and integrity when he {
goes out on the stump to solicit ;
votes. A man who cannot do this
and do it successfully. is very little I
in demand by the Office seekers who {
have plenty of money to buy their 1

For these reasons We urge you to s

Governor Cooding in his address
here Saturday night said the princi.
pal issues Of this campaign we're the
questions of statewide prohibition
and the state railroad commission.
If this is true, let US see how much
difference there is between the par
ties on the principal issues. The
Republican party declares for state
wide prohibition which requires a
two thirds vote of both houses of the
Legislature, voting separately. in
order to get this matter before the
people Who viii have an opportunity
to vote for it two years later, and it
viii then take a majority vote to
carry it. The Democrats are
pledged to the initiative and referen-
dunn, or direct legislation which
gives the people the right to petition
and vote on all legislation and it
does not require a tvo-thirds vote on
this legislation, but a certain per
cent. can petition for any measure
and a majority vote of tM people
will carry it. This applies not
,nly to the liquor question. but to
III legislation, which viii give the
people right to vote on all such
questions without any further legisla&
ion. This viii apply to a railroad
commission the same as any other
question andwill settle these matters
IL at once.
The Republicans are pledged to a
abroad commission while the Demo
rats said they would leave this
