COUNTY FAIRS

A number of counties have held
county agricultural fairs and stock
exhibits this fall. Many of them
have proven very successful. Nota-
BILE among the list was the fair held
at Bedford City. 1t was phenomil
~ successful And it was gotten
up in three weeks. The idea of
holding a fair was taken hold of by
the Bedford City Board of Trade
and they made it go.
The success of this enterprise
suggests to us that ROckbridge ought
to have yearly agricultural exhibit.
Why not the Lexington Business
Men 5 Association take hold o; the
matter and push it to completion?
The question might be agitated this
winter, then next spring definite
plans could be worked out.
II any Of our readers think well of
the suggestion, we should be glad
for them TO open up communication
through our columns and give ex-
preston to the the faith that is in
them. We shall be glad to publish
letters on this subject.
The meeting of the Boys Corn
Club 1.-THE Courthouse next Monday
might be used as the beginning of a
more extended exhibit in the future.

Gently been ordered removed from all
the parks by the mayor of our met
ropolitan city. No one will deny the
virtue of this act, andAyet we know
of no single instance where the medi-
cal profession of any city has ever
urged the removal of such signs for
reasons of health.
Green grass has many beneficial
qualities; it is restful to the eye; it
purifies and moistens the air, making
breathing, much more pleasant and
healthful; it has tendency to en-
courage deeper breathing, and no one
will deny that it somehow has an ex-
hilarating influence upon mankind.
1T is cool in the summer heat and we
feel the desire to walk or lie on it.
Most people think it is a thing Of
beauty to look at and our sociolo-
gists urge it as a good playground for
children. Why only children? The
great army Of ambulant sick and CON
valescent need it much morel The
freedom of the park grass in cities
and towns all over the country would
soon improve health conditions and
lower the death rate considerably

TORSTTAN

Labor for Love; thy labor shall be vain
Conquer it; God shall laugh and feed
thee dust
Deserve it; thou shalt clasp broken
trust,
Learning wise unfaith For Joy or pain
Love falleth wantonly, as falls the rain
Alike upon the just and the unjust.
Take all unclean that lieth to thine hand
There is no shame but wherewith Love
may be.
Be pure-thou fool, what shall it profit
thee?
Thine uttermost endeavor may command
Upon the shore a grain the less of sand.
A drop the more of water in the sea-
Because the heart of Love is hidden higher
Than ever poet sang or prophet saw
Beyond all dream of glory and Of awe
The very holiness Of thy desire
Shall blind thee to the gold within the fire,
And hold thee from the best This is the
law.
Therefore deserve; give wholly; do no i'll;
Labor and overcome So the one kiss
May overflow greater soul with bliss
More curiously sought; or, if Chance will
Thou shalt, remembering old beauty, still
Worthily suffer, knowing what Love is.

LIGHTNING FIRES AIRsHIP
Wonderful Escape Of an Aero.
naut at Barcelona.
Herr Ebrmaan Was Gliding Along at
Moderate Speed When His Craft
ShriveIIed and Fell.

Barcelona, Spain.-A great crowd
witnessed an aviator's marvellous es-
cape from death when his aeropIane,
struck by bolt Of lightning, was in
stantly halted in its course and then
driven to the earth in mass of
flames.
The aviator, Ehrmann, was sailing
along at moderate height on cross
country flight. Without warning, a
flash broke from the low-hanging
clouds, followed by roar of thunder.
The bolt shot through the very midst
of the aeroplane, setting FIRE to the
canvas. Luckily, the motor was not
struck
Herr Ehrmann kept his presence of
mind and stuck to his post. Envel-
oped in the f1aSes he guided the
tumbling machine as best he could
and succeeded in elevating the front
plane SO as to bring him to the field
on slant.
The throng, which had given him
up for dead, cheered when he stepped
out of the smoke-filled wreck of his
machine to the frame of which he had
chung after the wires shriveled up in
fire. The flying machine, despite its
slanting course, struck the ground
with considerable force, but Ehrmann
was not hurt.
Ehrmann heretofore has not figured
ominently in flying events, and the
strange accident occurring to him
brings him into widespread notice for
the first time.

WISE WORDS.

And many farce COMEDY is no
laughing matter.
Never Judge mans brains by the
size of his hat
There are lots of skim-milk morals
in the cream of society.
And some women look as if they
just naturally run to waist.
He who throws mud can never use
it to whitewash his reputation.
The husband who INDUCES most
isn't necessarily the most indulgent.
Honesty may be stamped on a
mans face and yet leave wide mar
gin.
Airship owners are not the only
persons who indulge in flights of
fancy.
Many man imagines he is making
big noise in the world when, as a
matter of fact, he isn't heard across
the street.
The favors you get for nothing are
often worth that much.
Women are like babies; they have
to cry for nearly everything they
want
Isn't it better to be chicken
hearted bachelor than hen-pecked
husband?
Nearly every little man has doc
trine that he believes the world will
finally accept.
Some men enjoy a show only when
there is fifteen minutes intermission
before one more.
And many a man will go out of his
way to avoid saying a good word in
behalf of his neighbor.
After woman has been married
about a year she is willing to admit
that her husband doesn't know it ALL.
When jealousy flies out of the win
dow it usually takes love along if for
no other reason than to keep from
getting lonesome.
After the average man has reached
the threescore and ten mark he can
sum his life up in these words, What
fool I've Prom Pointed
