exception Of two or three collleries
where a small amount of work is be-

us far there has been no trouble,
no immediate trouble threatens, as
hope and prospect Of peace Is
ong. The collieries simply stand
Idle, and the men are waiting
But the miners are very active
among themselves, holding meetings,
watching and guarding the properties
which they have tied up to see that
any OF their own members, who may
not favor striking, do not attempt to
return to work and the mines resume
until their grievances are settled.
Large numbers of special men hired
by coal companies from professional
strike breakers have reached the re-
gion and most of them were quietly
taken to some Of the mines. Hotels
and boarding houses in the mining
towns have refused to accommodate
most Of these men, and so the coal
companies employing them must lodge
and feed them behind the stockades
at the collieries.
Tint not all are to engage guards

HONEST ADVERTISING.

When the editorial under the above
caption was written for our issue of the
18th, we had been advised that the
measure, Senate Bill No. 9, had passed
both houses of the general assembly.
This proves to be an error, however, as
it only passed the senate and was de-
fested in the house bys vote of thirty
five to thirty-eight.
This is unfortunate, as it robs vir-
ginia Of the honor of being the first
state to adopt a law requiring honest
statements in advertising.
A Richmond lawyer speaking of the
proposed law, said: "If you put that
bill through you're going to ruin one of
the largest stores in Richmond"
II this be true, tits time for the pro-
lection Of the public that the bill be
passed.

Negotiated business men are largely
responsible for those vegetated COM
munities that remind people of "Sleepy
Hollow" or Goldsmith's Deserted Viii
lage." Such communities do not live
they emily exist. They are resting place
OF unprogressive men who live in an old
time atmosphere while all around are
places throbbing with the spirit Of the
twentieth century and rapidly develop
ing along every line. Wide-awake BUSH
ness wen who advertise, who keep n
breast of the times and who not unof-
ten show the way, are the men who give
to the community the power of their
own personality and example, with the
result that they and the whole place
progress and prosper.

Confederate Reunion.

Macon, Ga, famed for its hospital
ity, for its freedom from disease, for
its wonderful climate and its beauteous
streets, will throw its arms open wider
than any other city has ever before
done for the thousands of veterans who
will camp down at Central City Park in
May. This encampment will be perfect
in every feature and all will be abso-
lutely free of cost to the men who bat
tied for home and principle back in the
sixties.
Macon believes that nothing is too
good for these veterans, and this will
be the primal and salient motive of
those in charge of the encapment. The
best of everything that money can buy
will be provided. From water to coffee
everything will be sanitary and of the
best quality, for Macon wishes every
veteran to leave with praise on his lips
for the best free entertainment in the
history of reunions. All that the CITY
asks is that the veterans partake of this
hospitality. The only meal ticket re-
CURED will be the face of an old veteran
and hearty appetite, which is assured
as soon as one faces the ideal climate.
AS to sleeping, the best has been pro-
vided for. Army cots and blankets
have been procured. The park with its
wide sweeping meadows, its running
streams, its song-birds and its glorious
foliage, offers advantages, eclipsed by
no other spot in all of the southland
No such things as cramped space nor
lack of elbow room will be dreamed of.
In toto, it will be the most successful
and brilliant assortment of free enter
tainment ever offered the veterans.

Some Health Proverbs.

CLOSED windows are open avenues to
consumption.
Strong drink makes weak men,"
mo good growth without exercise"
Modern city life may build fortunes
but it breaks health"
"a clean tooth never decays"
First aid to the dyspeptic-a good
laugh"
High living develops low vitality"
Breathe deeply; the more you expand
your chest, the less you will contract
colds
'For your baby's sake, nurse it. You
can't improve upon Gods plan"
DIRTY air is death"
" The Civil War killed POS, 700 in four
year; consumption kills 300, 900 in four
years in the United States: if war ia
hell, what is consumption"
what will it profit a child to gain
the whole curriculum, if it loses its
healthY"
"A child's curiousity concerning sex
is normal, pure, and necessary for men,
tai and moral development. Satisfy IL
with chastle ideals"
Begin early to prepare the next gen.
GRAFTON for parenthood.
Better & year too early than an
hour too late"
THE only night air that ia injurious
is last nights; open the windows and
let it out"
Mothers need to be protected against
exposure, overwork, dissipation, ven
ereal diseases, stress and strain Of every
kind; and they need to be taught how
to nurse their children, and how to feed,
clothe, and battle them properly. -

There was indeed no effort to estab-
lish an efficient public school system un-
til the constitutional convention Of 1868
composed Of one hundred members
OF whom two-thirds represented the So
called radical party-the best OF
which eventually went into the present
republican party. To this assembly
Virginia owes the constitutional pro-
vision for the establishment Of the first
statewide free school system.
What has been the recent history Of
the primary schools under the Machines
rule? From 1882 to 1910 the primary
schools received an amount equal to one
third OF the delinquent cspitation and
property tax. In 1910 the general as
sembly changed the wording Of the sp-
preparation bill so as to materially de-
crease the receipts of the primary
schools. The sun 1910 amounted
to $4,000. the brunt Of the deficit
being borne by the smaller county
schools. The acts of the last iegis-
iature are not yet accessible, but the
last heard of the school matter in the
press, was that the senate was resist
ing the efforts Of the house Of delegates
to make good the promises made in 1910
to restore this amount to the schools.
and were fighting the compromise meas
ure to give $42, 900 to the school fund.
1t is a safe guess though that the SEN
ate won, and the school fund is again
pleted that money may be available to
support the needless bureaus and Off
GERS about Richmond and state institu-
tons run in a reckless and uneconomical
manner.
In the matter Of the political infiu-
ence Of the little leaders il the counties,
the henchmen, but pattern after their
state leaders, who use their Offices and
political influence to prevent the inves-
tigation of departments where NAL
feasance is charged. Is it any wonder
they feel above the law!
AS to the third count, the legislature
could at any time pass pistol toat-
ing" law il it would, but the Machine
in control in Virginia today fears to Of
fend their allies by such measure, and
for this reason armed desperadoes stalk
unmolested throughout the state with
q secure feeling that they ARE above
the law"
What then, is the matter with Vir-
ginia1 THE MACHINE.
What's the answerf: THE MA
CHINE MUST GO.

When you meet a man of business
who is prompt, reliable, conscientious,
and energetic, the chances are that when
boy he manifestes in his own boyish
way the same characteristics, 30 true ia
it that the boy is father OF the man.
By the same reckoning a slouchy, indo-
