WE WANT PHOTOGRAPHS
Tribune Anxious to Print Pic
lures of Contestants.

The Tribune is anxious to print
pictures of young lady contestants.
This cannot be done until the con-
testants send in their photographs.
1t is matter which should not be
neglected. We print the pictures to
help the Candidates in their cam
paign for votes. There is no expense
to the young ladies in this matter.
Why not seize every opportunity that
makes for success?
This is the seventh week of the
voting and the results have been
satisfactory so far.
The standing of the Candidates as
published this week shows some re-
markable changes. The ones who win
the special premiums of July 18th,
win have to hustle as there are several
young ladies after these prizes who
are determind to secure them. Re-
member that the votes secured now
count both for the special premiums
and for the grand prize.
The following is the standing of the
contestants this week:

Mr.. Smith Remembered.

Fl. L. Smith, who had his arm
broken and was otherwise injured in
the trip to Hancock on Memorial day,
is now rapidly recovering, and is able
to be out. His complete recovery
seems only matter of time.
Mr.. Smith was agreeably surprised
last week to learn that the news OF
his accident had reached his old home
in Barre, Vermont, where he lived
forty years ago. The Barre Daily
Times recites the facts of the accident,
and says that Mr.. Smith was formerly
one of the prominent citizens of Barre
and that, "He will be remembered by
the older residents of Barre. For
some time he was the owner of the
old fork shop plant, which is now
the machine manufacturing plan
of Trow & Holden"

Edgar G. Higbee, who was recently
appointed superintendent of the
agricultural school, came up from
Candy the first of the week. and has
been spending few days here max
ing preparations for getting the
school started.
The Morris Agricultural School is
most fortunate in having secured in
Mr.. Higbee gentleman of large
educational training and experience,
and yet one who brings to his work
the energy of young man to develop
this new agricultural schools. Mr..
Higbee is 35 years of age, and received
his A. B. degree and his A. M. degree
from the university of Minnesota.
He has had ten years experience in
public school work, and during that
time his work at Candy has attracted
particular attention, where he organ
lied an agricultural high school under
the provisions of the Putnam act.
It is fortunate that agricultural
education, which is still so undevel-
oped, has enlisted the activities of
such progressive young men as Supt.
Higbee, and the Morris school is most
fortunate in having obtained him.
While at St. Paul this week, the
editor met Representative Johnson,
who was active in securing this school
for Morris, and he spoke most highly
of Supt. Higbee, whom he said. they
regret to see leave Candy.
Mr.. Higbee plans to move here
about August 1st. He is married and
has one child.

killed while walking on the Great

He was seen strolling along the track
about dusk, and was not seen again

supposed that he was struck by a
light engine which came along about
nine O'Clock, tho none of the train
crew recall seeing him. From appear
ances, he was struck by a west bound
train, and was so badly injured that
death must have been instantaneous.

be found.
Early Monday morning, Coroner
Caine, Sheriff Donovan and County
Attorney Beise, went to Hancock in
J. R. Krueger's auto, and after look
ing into the matter, decided that the

lest settlers of Hancock and has been
there for thirty years Or more. He
was about rs years of age, and is
survived by his wife.

Cotton Seed May Fetch a Dollar.

They are just monkeying with cot

seed ridiculous, but in a few years
from now when you read these lines

TRAIN The CHILDREN TO READ.
Reading DeVelOpeS The Mind as Nothing
Else Will Do.

We believe that the desire fol
knowledge, for and because of the
power which it gives life's work is
the most important ambition any boy
or girl can possess and that the for.
nation of the reading habit offers the
test means of satisfying this ambi.
ton. We have never seen a farm
home where the parents were read.
ers that the effect was not plain in
the increased refinement and com
forts in the home, and the greater
efficiency of the work done inside the
house and out in the fields.
If, however, father and mother do
not read, and show neither desire
nor respect for the knowledge and
power which reading brings, the
boys and girls are not likely to form
the habit and thereby they miss the
greatest pleasure Of life and means
of acquiring knowledge which gives
power in the work of life.
We believe in reading for pleasure
and culture, but with reading, as
with teaching in our schools, we
believe that as great pleasure and
culture may come through reading
that which will furnish US facts and
knowledge to better meet the re-
sponsibilities and do the work of the
life we lead as from any other. We
can recall no keener pleasures than
those which we have experienced in
reading for the first time an explana-
lon OF the true reasons for doing
certain things which we had been
doing over and over again without
understanding. Ever after there was
4 new pleasure in doing those things
and they were done better because
Of the better understanding of why
We were required to do them. An
understanding Of why he is required
20 cultivate a clean crop, and how
cultivation conserves moisture, can
not fail to interest the boy, improve
his mind, enlarge his understanding
and encourge him to do his work
better.

A SOMEWHAT FlSHY STORY.
How a Bull Dog Caught a Trout in
Lake in ADSOn.

Mr.. J. G.. Carpenter, well known
citizen of Lanesboro township, hes
a bull dog which he prizes very
highly, not only because he is good
watch dog but because heis develop
ing extraordinary sagacity as a fish
catching canine. Last Sunday 11th)
a number Of Mr.. Carpenters sons
were bathing in Lanes creek, near
his home. They were having good
time in the water splashing and
swimming around when suddenly a
large trout, apparently scared out
of it's wits, rose to the surface of
the water and jumped into a small
bateau that was in the lake in which
they were bathing. No sooner had
the fish landed in the boat than the
family bull dog, which was sitting
on the bank looking on, made for it.
The fish, the instant the dog jumped
in the boat, made for the water.
The dog did not hesitate a second,
but dived from the boat into the
water at the point where the trout
disappeared, and in second or two
reappeared on the surface with the
fish in his mouth The dog swan to
the bank with the trout and the boys
triumphantlv carried it home and
had it cooked for breakfast Monday
morning. The fish was so big that
it made a good meal for the entire
family. Wadesboro Messenger.

The FIRST WINDMILL.
Could Work Only When the Wind Blew
From a Certain Point.

Windmills are said to have been
introduced into England by the
knights of St. John, who observed
them in use among the Saracens in
the Crusades, but how long they had
been in existence before this it is
not possible to ascertain. A water
mill was built in Bohemia in the year
718, for an old chronicler mentions
it, going on to say that before that
time all the mills in Bohemia were
windmill's set upon the summit of
hills
For huhdreus of years windmills
were among the most important ad-
juncts of industry, yet they hardly
changed from the rude and primi-
tive design of earliest days. They
were fixed in one position. and so
could only be worked when the wind
blew from certain quarter, while
the four sails boasted no slat or
checking apparatus of any kind.
which must have been most incon-
venient at times.
The first idea of arranging a mill
so that it could be worked when
ever the wind did blow" was that of
lettering an ordinary mill in the
middle of pond by means of rope
when the wind shifted the ropes
loosened and the mill dragged a.
round until the sails were caught by
the wind, and it was again tethered
as before.
Later on great POLE, which was
worked on the principle of a turn
table, was affixed to the mill. Not
until 1900 did Holland, the land of
windmill's, introduce a movable
dome carrying the sail axle. The
dome ran on rollers and was shifted
around by means of the pole men,
toned above. These ancient mills
we're often of massive build, being
made of brick or stone, and later en-

TRY, TRY AGAIN!

If at first you don't succeed,
Try, try again;
If a husband you should need,
Try, try again;
Cupid, with his little dart,
Sure will pierce some manly heart,
If you will but do your part,
Try, try again.
What though m..has proved untrue
Try, try again;
Or if Dick has failed you too,
Try, try again;
Don't think Harry was the best,
There are others you may test
Take your pick from out the rest,
Try, try again.
