And that word Is economy.
Economy means thrift. 1t doesn't
mean parsimony; it doesn't mean
meanness; above all things 1t doesn't
mean a short sighted and self-defeat-
ing policy of doing without those things
which can be most easily dispensed
with regardless Of consequences.
nelghbor Of mine has pretty hard
work to make both ends meet. She has
three young children In her house,
hold and it Is not possible for her to
leave home for an afternoon without
having someone to take her place. Once
in while wh,n the errands which she
cannot ask anyone else to do have ac-
cumulated, she hires a woman to stay
with the children and goes to town.
She had just come back from such a
trip the other evening when l went
over to call and found her stretched
out on the couch. pale and evidently
completely exhausted.

Economy, economy. what extrava-
gances are committed in thy name!
Another woman in our neighborhood
frequently boasts of the infinitesima
sum on which she contrives to feed hel
family. She is always crticising hel

OF hc- husbands modest salary.

Her neighbor was right. Nor do TIL
doctors bills alone represent all thu
cost of this woman's economy. Sh'
must also charge UP against it the los
of efficiency which these children viii
probably suffer later from their un'

False economy is a thankless task.

While the same spirit still prevails
among all Americans that we should
celebrate Thanksgiving day, the meth
DDS of doing so vary according to
whether we live in the city, town CIR
country.
We can be just az thankful in one
place as another, bat customs in vari-
GUS places give expression to it in diff
ferent forms of celebration. In the
country and small town, families and
relatives gather in the home, and the
main feature of the day centers around
the Thanksgiving table.
In cities. there are church services.
theaters, matinees and football games,
which either separate the family gath
ering for this midday Thanksgiving
dinner, or it is planned for the evening,
5 or o'clock. The latter seems to be
much the better arrangement and
leaves the day free for outside pleasure.
The housekeeper should also be free to
enjoy at least some Of the pleasures
with her family and not spend the en-
tire day in cooking or preparation of
the Thanksgiving dinner.
Plan everything far enough in adj
vance and have al, the cooperation
of other members of the family that
is possible. If the children are to have
the spirit of true thankfulness it will
never have a better opportunity to
manifest itself than in helping mother
in getting ready Cor Thanksgiving day,
from the preparing and cooking the
dinner to setting the table; tomorrow
we will give some suggestions for set
ting the table.

Thanksgiving Music.

Thanksgiving Music.
(Minna Irving in Leslie's)
When the autumn winds are signing,
And the trees are stripped and bare.
Then we hear the plaintive gobble
OF the turkey on the air,
And the golden pumpkin pumping:
And the sizzle of the pies
When the range is red and roaring,
And the smoke ascends the skies.
Listen to the drumsticks beating
On hundred million plates,
Sounding taps above the turkeys
That have met their proper fates.
While the knives and forks together
Loud duets around us play.
And the coffee urn IL piping
For the feast Thanksgiving day.

To All Democrats:

To All Democrats:
81 am a candidate for State Treas
urer, and will submit my claims to the
Democrats ofTenneseee in the Primary
of April 26th. | believe tina my course
in the past has been such as to entite
me to the respect of all Democrats.
While / have been open and frank in
the expression of my opinion at all
times, have conducted myself with
courtesy and respect toward all men.
Regardless of my own future or for
tunes, I1ejoice with the best citizenship
of Tennessee over the prospect for a
thoroughly reunited and victorious
Democracy.
There is something more than place
nd power at stake. The princip es of
our Party, in which we all believe, are
calling upon us to march together for
Democratic success in the State and
Nation.
The Primary Plan is fair and Demo
cratic, inviting alike the confidence of
the candidate and the voter 1t is un-
marred by any shadow of factional
advantage. For that reason, each of
it's nominees will be the choice of the
people, with practic al certainty of
election.
ask the honest voters of Tennessee
for this nomination, and | promise you
that if nominated and elected, will
devote my best energies and whatever
ability possess to the Interest of the
tax payers and the welfare of the
State. De Long Rice.

Rev. Conrad Tintrup.

Died Wednesday, April 10th,
1912, at Arcadia College, Mo-,
Rev. Conrad Tintrup, aged rs
years, 5 months and 81 days. His
remains were inferred in the Col
.lege cemetery, Friday morning
8 o'clock, with the solemn and
impressive ceremony OF the
church.
Conrad Tintrup was born at
Herbern, Westphalia, Germany,
October 10, 1882. In 1855 came &c
America, and was ordained to the
priesthood two years later. In
1859 he was appointed pastor Of
st. Paul Church, st. Paul, Mo.
which charge he held forty-foul
years, when, after twenty years
gradual approach, total blindness
came upon him and his resigna'
ton perforce followed. Beloved
by his parishioners, this severance
of their relations was peculiarly
sorrowful, and their prayers fol-
lowed him to the end. He cam'
here nine years ago, and sine
then continuously resided at tn
College. He bore his terrible in
Fiction with fortitude, patient res
ignation and remarkable cheer
fulness. His mentality was I'm
clouded and his heart was nc
shrouded in darkness. He await
ed the end with the confdenc
born of faith that it would brin
to his soul the light that neve
fails. Peace be unto him!
