Surprise for Mother.

A certain mother! given to mys-
tiCism and impressive theories re-
garding her highly natural children
one evening was entertaing visitors.
Suddenly came the sound of little
feet pattering to the head of the
stairs. The mother raised her hand
in solemn warning.
Listen" she said, softly. The
children are going to deliver their
goodnight message. 1t always gives
me a feeling of reverence to hear
them they are so much nearer the
Creator than we are, and they
speak so wonderfully, sometimes.
Hushl One of them is speaking
now"
Then. breaking through the
tense silence, came a shrill whis-
per:

Give Them Your Support.

The latest returns from the cleo
tion held throughout the country
yesterday indicate that Governor
Woodrow Wilson and Governor
Marshall have been elected presi-
dent and vice-president of the
United States by an overwhelm-
ing majority, The people have
spoken in unmistakable terms and
the country for four years from
March 4 will be controlled by
the democratic party. Present in
dicatiOns are that the next house of
representatives will be overWhelm-
ingly democratic. 1t becomes tn
duty of every good and patriotic
citizen to bow to the will of the
majority of the people expressed at
the ballot box and to give to Pres
ident Wilson and Vice-President
Marshall their hearty support in
their every effort to conduct the
affairs of the nation according to
the platform and policies on which
the people entrusted them with
the highest offices within their gift
While thousands of the voters of
the country were not in sympathy
and accord with the platform on
which the democrats were success
full at the polls, the people have
spoken in unmistakable terms and
under our form of government
the voice of the majority is supreme
! and from the fourth of next March
Wilson and Marshall will have the
support of the people of the entire
nation. Hold up their hands in
every way possible, give them an
opportunity to formulate into laws
the platform upon which they were
elected. Time alone will tell
whether or not a change in the ad-
ministrative policy of the govern
ment will work for the betterment
of the people along commercial,
manufacturing and business lines.
Give them your hearty support and
hold them and the party they rep
resent responsible for the result.
The above from the Hannibal
Courier-Post has the true ring
The Democratic party will do moth
ing to injure Legitimate big business
but it will do something to prevent
big business, the trusts and monop-
olies from encroaching on the rights
of the masses. Democracy stands
for equal rights to all and special
privileges to none. Such policies
cannot do anything that will be
injurious to the country. If every
body will do their part the people
will be prosperous instead of the
big interests being prosperous at
the expense of the people. Let US
all pull together and the era of
greatest prosperity to all the peo-
pie will be with us.

and the sales of government lands, it

of war.
Do we ever think of our country's
welfare as we'll as our own. in the
coming years? Do we stop and consider
how these burdens of war are hinderine
us from building uD a great productive
agricultural region? There is no gov.
eminent in any country that cannot be
and is not influenced by the will of it's
people. So let us work together and
influence Dull government and the gov
ernments of other countries. 20 develop
some means of settling possible causes
of war. Let us work for an Interna-
tional Peace. Let US influence our gov-
eminent to give her capable men an
opportunity to develop the natural re-
sources of our country, instead of
spending their lives in preparing for
possible wars. Let us work for q utili-
cation of our government money which
will. in turn, serve to benefit us and our
prospecting country. If we could abolish
wal in this great twentieth century,
in which we are so fortunate as to be
living, and establish this wonderful
proposed International Peace. we should
give to our future generation. a heri-
tage of prosperity and power.
Supt. Berg presented the diplomas
and in his talk compared the prosperity
of the nations of the world, tracing the
cause to each individual citizen. That
nation is successful where every man
produces as much as he consumes and
in order to do that each person must
have an education of the head, heart
and hand, must realize the value of
work and the necessity of doing things
right. that is, that each child should be
taught to do something useful, to pro-
duce something, and to be economical.

IN THE WOMAN'S WORLD

the best-known feminine aviator in
America and who has been doing SEN
sational work for the last two years,
may essay some flights in Honolulu in
the near future. She will pass
through here en- route to Japan, where
a series Of exhibitions are being ar
ranged by Jack Hall, her manager.
From that country she expects to
go to Berlin, Paris and London, flying
at each place, after which she may
attempt a flight across the English
channel, both ways, before returning
to the United States.
Miss Scott has appeared in public
flights in California, New York and
Massachusetts,, in two instances going
up on the day following fatal acct
dents to other aviators on the same
field. Miss Scott, before the aeroplane
became the rage, was a noted mo-
torist, being the first woman to drive
her own car from New York city to
San Francisco. She says she fully ex-
poets some day to meet the fate that
seems eventually to come to all the
present-day aviators.

some late writer's declare the sixth
line Physicians declared the chronic
stage in this case was established ten
years ago. Also note that patient was
belfast for two, years before taking
the treatment. This makes up a
hopeless case under the old regime.
We have declared over and over

What excuse can be given for hold
