throw cloak Of gloom over the spirit

There Ia little sunshine. no Jolly sur

and life anywhere. All these things
make home interesting and bring the

there Is an embarrassing routine that
is never varied, the home has little
interest or drawing power beyond that
OF duty. self Interest or force OF habit.
X Is not meant that there need be
noise or excitement In the home, for
often the tired worker appreciates
nothing so much as quiet and rest.
But one can have qusrs ana rest with
out the homes being commonplace or
deadly uninteresting. There can be an
undercurrent OF brightness and cheer
and interest that IL as refreshing AS
is the peacefulness Of the home. But
the woman who goes to her home with

about her home wearing this same ex-

life. She must get out or tho ruv or

There is very little smallpox IN

epidemic Of 1871 TO 1872 Prussia, which
then had had 81 years Of compulsory
vaccination and was probably the best
Naccinated country in the world. lost
one hundred and twenty -four thous-
and of her vaccinated and reya ccinated
citizens by smallpox. Then she insti-
tute1 a drastic system OF sanitation,
brought good water into her cities. in
troduced a complete drainage system
throughout the land, built model bar
racks and tenements in the larger cit
les, and has not been revisited by
smallpox 10 any great extent.
Smallpox fiourishes among fifth
and dirt. Other Nth diseases like ty-
plus have been practically eradicated
by purely sanitary measures. small
pox IN spite OF vaccination remains
with us still. II Is disappearing as

conditions are made and observed.

In an attempt to reproduce scene

ing Arrow. Western scene in which
white people were saved from raid
ing parity OF Indians by flaming ar
rows which they sent into the heavens
thus sumnoning a rescuing party,
One OF the boys suggested that they
play the picture. Bows and arrows
were fashioned from branches Of
trees growing along Carroll Creek,
which flows past the Kennedy home,
ard TO the pf ints OF the arrows was
fastened waste, soaked In gasoline.
secured from the store Of young Kel.

soaked waste, the boys one after an.
other, shot the burning arrows into
the air. and gleefully watched them
as they flew across the cleek, until
it came to young Kenaedy's turn. Tht
little fellow set fire to the arrow,
drew the bow. and then hesitaied for
an instant. Before he had let the ar
row go the wind had blown the flames
against him, and almost instantly his
clothes were ablaze.
With quick wit young son CT WI
liam T. Haller, called to the boy To
Jump into the creek. and when young
Kennedy, panic-stricke1, hesitated.
rushed to him and pushed him into
the stream. The water extingulshed
the flames, and the boy was then
dragged from the creek by his CON-
panicns and taken to his home, where
he was put to bed and physician
summoned, who found that the boys

NEW MUSICAL ORGANIZATION
WILL BE FORMED HERE
A Choral Society May be outgrowth
Of Club That viii Soon be
Heard in Public.

That the people ef this city will
soon be treated TO some choral music
By home talent now seems pretty well
assured. Recently there was organic
ed the Martinsburg Glee Club, COM
posed of about dozen male members,
with Mr. Fl. C. Wright as president;
Fret. H. Rey Wolf, secretary-treas-
urer; Z. Ashcom, business manager,
and DR.. Bruce Geyer, musical director.
TO be sure this is not large orgaai-
zation numerically, but it win grow
end may yet become the nucleus of a
choral society Of much larger proper
items and include female singers. At
lie asst one Of the members of the club
so intimated today. That there Is a
crying need for choral society in
Martinsburg many persons Of musical
taste and experience here freely ad-
nit and which might give at least
one concert or festival year when a
varied program of choral numbers
could be rendered. Other towns have
choral societies and why not we. may
be asked. The matter is worthy OF
the attention of cur musical people.
The glee club had good rehearsal
last night in assembly hall OF the
High School building. This is in pre-.
paration for a concert to be given
about Thanksgiving time in Novem-
her, and though it was the first re-
hearsal, the club is already able to
sing one piece very creditably. This
announcement will arouse more than
a passing interest, and which will un-
doubtedly enlarge as the time for the
concert approaches.
