In human life than that OF an aged
couple. with their children and grand
children gathered about them cele-
brating their golden wedding. Thus
to face the sunset of life with serene
soul and heart fun of the cultivated
and garnered emotions of years. one
must begin loving early and keep it
up.
Discussion of love is tabooed by a
good many well meaning people.
They think It a subject only for shall
low "spooneys" And yet it Is the
subject that comes closest home to Ill
of as, that we think about great
deal st some period or other. and
that We each have to settle.
To love a worthy woman is full
mans first duty And he win be wise
If he undertakes 1t early in life. when
he is wide awake to wonan's faults.
when he has ceased to look upon won1-
an as a divinity and begun to regard
her as a loving and lovable human
creature being neither too fault
less nor too full of faults, but one
whom it is his duty to love and
cherish, to guide and chide.
IF there is anybody in the world
absolutely united for sympathetic
opinion on the question of love. 1t il

eEnotionally dried up from porting over

Where the
Difference Comes In.

The Columbia State says that Wall
street does not mind putting up the
money to elect a president. be he
Democratic or Republican or by what
name. The only thing they want. after
they pay the price for him. is to have
him to use IL the opportunity comes.
Truly said. The people are in the
same position; they want a man for
president who can be depended upon
to stand firmly for what is right for
the entire people.
Wall street objects to Wilson be-
cause 1t cannot depend upon him to
forget his oath of ONCE, and the peo-
pie are for him because he may be
depended upon to be president OF the
entire country. or such a man the
people need not be afraid. OF such a
man honorable businesses are not
afraid
II an honest man for president viii

special interests the time has Come
when man who can be trusted "a

business.

JACKSON CO.
BOYSORGAN|zE
A CORN CLUB
IN ADDITION TO THE PRIZES
GIVEN BY THE GOVERNMENT
THE TiMEs-couRIER is Ar.
RANGING TO elvE THE BOYS
OTHER PRIZES.

The Mariana Times-Courier of
Friday says:
Wanted-1O0 boys between the ages
of 10 and IS years to join the jackson
County Boys Corn Club. AT last .
man has been found who win take
charge of and push this great work
to success.
There is no getting around the fact
that Jackson county has the best agri-
cultural lands in this state if not in
the entire south, therefore there is no
reason in the world why our boys
cannot raise the best corn. and tins
secure the handsome prizes being of
fered.
To the boy raising the best acre of
corn in the county, a trip to Gaines
Vile is given. Here he comes in COM
petition with the county corn clubs of
the entire state and the winner Is
given q full trip to Washington, D. c.
These trips together, with small cash
prizes, are given by the United States
government. The Times Courier pro
roses to call for a public subscription
and In this way raise enough cash to
make say five or six purses to be
awarded to the best county exhibitors
and thus enthuse the hoys to exert
view. We propose to head list of this
kind with SO and call upon our bust
ness men for volunteer subscriptions
to make the amount attractive, say
two or three hundred dollars. The
first prize should be one hundred doll
lars. the second fifty, and the other
four, say twenty-five dollars each.
Prof. c. c. Gum, our popular coun-
ty superintendent of public instruc-
ton. has consented to take charge of
the work. and has issued the follow
ing letter:
I'VE wish to organize a corn club IN
Jackson county. 1t is not necessary
for us to go into details as to the
value, of these clubs, etc.
They are now being organized In
nearly every county in Florida, and we
do not want ours, the best agricultural
county in the state, to be behind the
others.
The first systematic effort in this
line for the southern states was made
10.543 boys of the south in this work
In 1910. Sc. 225 boys went into the
| competition to see who could make
the best acre of corn. The exact fig
ures have not been obtained for last
year. 1911, but it is estimated that the
number was about $4,000. We propose
| to send circular letters in a few DAYS
| to teachers, supervisors, trustees, etc
| in different parts of the county, and
we wish them to send to US the name
| and postofice address of every boy
| between the ages of ten and eighteen
| who viii pledge himself to plant ami
| cultivate one acre of corn under the
/ instructions of our agricultural de-
partments, state and national.
As soon as an alphah etical list Is
made up and sent to the department
Prof ]. J. Vernon, of Gainesville, Fla.
win name a date on which he will
meet all the boys in Mariana to or
| ganize them, and give them full di-
| rections as to how they must proceed

Condemned Criminals
AS An Aid to Science,

Recently a learned physician advo-
Gated that criminals condemned to
death be used as subjects for scien-
tifc experiment. He is not the first
one TO do so, bat the question has
never been accepted by the people.
But why should there be an objec-
ton?
If q man knows there is no escape
for him it is not likely that he would
object to physicians administering to
him poisons as an experiment in pref
erence to being hanged. He would be
holding to the last straw as a life pre-
server. and he would take the chance.
Wonderful advancements have been
made by experimenting with medi-
Gins upon animals. and the present
scientific knowledge is the result of
such experimenting. but how much
better could the experiments be made
If the subject were human being.
OF course. looked at from one stand
point, many would throw up their
hands in horror at the proposition. but
it might be possible to find cures fdf.
cancer and many other dreadful dis
eases if the experiments could be
made.
Many of the experiments would
probably prove fatal, but some might
be successful and thousands might. be
made well as the result of knowledge
obtained. and even if every expert
ment proved fatal no more lives would
be taken than IL the criminals were
executed.
It would be wrong. of course. 70
force criminals to submit themselves
to scientific experiment. but if there
were a law permitting it we believe
that nine out of every ten condemned
criminals would gladly make their last
act one which might benefit other
people.
