The Most Beautiful Thing.

A newspaper recently invited its
readers to state in few words what
they considered the most beautiful
thing in the world. The first prize
was awarded to the sender of the an
swer: "The eyes of my mother" THE
dream of that which we know to be
impossible" suggested an imaginative
person, and this brought him second
prize But the most amusing thing
was that which read, "The most beau
tiful thing in the world is to see a
man carrying his mother-in-law across
a dangerous river without making any
attempt to drop her in

PHON0GRAPH TO CALL cows

The phonograph, through the in.
genuity of a couple of boys in the
neighborhood of Monroe, Wis, has be.
come a thing of usefulness as well as
amusement and ornamentation. After
the novelty had worn off, the boys in
question had cast aside the canned
songs and funny talks and gone back
to checkers. But they found that
doing the chores seriously interfered
with the game. One of them remem-
bered they could talk into the records
and have the talk come out just like
ii went in.
So between moves each called into
the machine Come, Boss; come.
Boss" Then they put the phonograph
out facing the pasture and turned 1t
loose. The COWS came home.

Germany Gives France Warning.

Germany has warned France of the
dangerous consequences which would
be likely to follow the occupation OF
Fee by French troops.
Further than this the government
has taken no step, though watching
developments in Morocco very close

published Monday morning that Ger

has been hurrying to the relief Of

DREAMER DETECTS A THIEF

An odd thing happened recently at
Hampton, Conn, where John Braney,
an elderly man. dreamed that he saw
a man taking money belonging to him
from an envelope in which he had
placed it three days before. On awak-
ening he investigated, found his
money gone, and charged the theft to
James Brady, who. he said, was the
man he saw in his dream. Brady
was arraigned before justice on the
charge and admitted taking the
money. He was held for trial in the
superior court.

AN ABSENT-MINDED GROOM

John Adams has always been absent
minded. The other day this weakness
almost got him into trouble. He went
with Ida Lee OF Kansas City. Mo-,
to Kansas City, Kan, to be married
by Paul Huff. acting probate Judge
of Wyandotte county. When Judge
Huff asked him if he would take this
woman to be your lawfully welded
wife" he was looking out of the win
dow and didn't answer.
IF you've any doubts about it We
will stop right here" the bride said
defantly.
Adams protested that he had not
hesitated at all, but had merely been
thinking about something else. The
ceremony was completed without fur
ther hitch.

While was President, one of the
inspirations to me to try to act decent
~ and honorably IN that place was the
example given by the life, the words,
the deeds of a great Mississippian, now
dead the late Bishop Galloway, and
you are fortunate in having such an
example of what is highest in Ameri-
can citizenship, and l am glad to take
this opportunity of testifying to my
obligations 10 him, to say how much l
owe to him for inspirations, for
strength. l fail to see how anyone
could know Bishop Galloway, could fol-
low what he said, and realize that he
never said anything but what he was
willing to carry out by example.
fail to see how anyone could know him,
and his words and his works and not
feel spurred on to try to do the best
that was in him, and not feel ashamed
to do anything small or mean anything
petty or base (applause;) and the CHIEF
reason for that was because while he
spoke for righteousness, we all know
The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1911-04-07

that he never spoke a word to which
he did not try to live up to. That's some
thing want to say as man who was
once public man himself:
haven't any use for clergymen or
public men, newspaper writer. or any
one else, unless he says what is the
truth. regard man who lies on the
stump a. just a little bit worse than
the man who lies in private life, be-
cause in private life after all the man
is only Icing to one or two men, and on
the stump, If he lies, he lies to the
whole people. And if there is one mes
sage / would like to give to my fellow
citizens more than any other, it is to
ask them to remember always that as

nary every day life.
tor, but only if the orator says what s
true; and he then lives up to what he
says. The man-public servant-who
seeks to get a place by saying what is
fa'se, who makes promise that he
can't make good, is the worst enemy OF
the republic. We have right to ex-
pect that man put up for public
Office will make no promise which he
wouldn't hold sacred if made in private
life as between man and man, and we
have right to expect that he, if elect.
ed, will keep his word that he gave
before election. That's his part.
Now our part-the part of you anc
meas plain citizens, is to see that We
don't ask him to make promises HI
can't keep. If we 60 and ask him fol

he won't promise it several years dis

fail to demand lofty standard of rec
