True; but We have got several hun

We were only a few days out when !

CLARK WANTS THE EX-
TENSIONS OF THE ELEC-
TR|CuINEF FROM SAMTAFE

r. !. Iydings. a prominent citizen
OF Moberly, Is now boosting an cleo.
trio line from Santa Fe 70 Moberly.
aud The Clark Chronicle believes It
wiz be only a short time until this
line win be bulk. !
An electric lima Is now being built
from Mexico to santa Fe, about sew
en- miles Of the roai being construct.
cd, Gays the Chronicle. 1t is well 10
aoec that when this electric road Is
completed to Perry via Santa Fe that
trade ard travel runs into something
like a pocket at Santa Fe. having
TO turn back. either north or south.
when that place is reached, being
unable to go ON west, as the natur-
al trend OF trade and travel Is at
present.
It is rnmored also that Clark may
have a fighting chance to land the
extension from Santa Fe. as at this
point viii be found ample railroad
facilities to land a traveller at any
point at any time. The cost Of con
struction u this line from Santa Fe
70 Clark would MOI be expensive and
IL goes through communities that are
anxious Cor some kind Of railroad
connections.
This Is a splendid proposition for
the people Of Clark to look into,
and IL we cannot land the extension
We hope that the enterprisine
men OF the Magic City will get TO-
gether ard make the proposed ex'
tension possible. The proposed routt
from santa Fe to Moberly goes
through some g the best land i'm
the world and passes close to the
fine farm owned by R. A. Roddy.

BABY-BAD RESULTS

ShfNhcOs = W. q -
Do you say "boo" to your baby?
Well, you mustn't, for DR.. lena KEEL
logg Sadler, who has made am
exhaustive study of child life, told
the women's club of La Grange last
night that many a murderer, burglar
and highway robber has been made
in this manner
Doctor Sadler declared that the
mother who instilled into the mind
of her child the 'fear thought"
through threats of the bogy man,
the dark and all the other time-hon-
cred monsters of childhood. might
some day find herself the mother
OF a murderer.
THE child aver whom the
Thought of fear is held continually
becomes a coward. When he
reaches the age where this timidity
becomes noticeable, he is told he is
a coward. BY the time he is a
man he Is a coward. Statistics
have proved that many a man has
turned murderer, robber or thiei
simply to prove to a world that he
is not a coward"
Doctor Sadler outlined the power
Of suggestion in the training of the
child. As the wife learns that the
most propitbous time to secure fay.
ors from her husband is when he is
Joyous, Doctor Sadler declared, sc
also the mother learns that the
power Of suggestion to the child is
strongest when it is happy from play
or when at bedtime it is tucked in
TO its bed and ready for sleep.
