breakfast was served, and the

This is the task appointed:
To hold the vision of q final ar
rival at some fitting destination
to maintain undiminished a
sense of personal worthiness
to be defeated in each foolish
dream of the younger life, and
so to be disciplined into a larger
vision, made more sure by adj
versity; to be delayed for most
of q life time-and yet to be-
lieve in the strength of the hui
man spirit to surmount pain,
outlive sin, and defeat malice
and envy; to believe in the
gradual but all-conquering pow
err of good will; to be saddened
but not embittered; to be beat
en- but not conquered. That is

Greenwich Time.

Standard time has been 80 long In
use everywhere in the United States
that most people appear to have for
gotten, II they ever knew. that it was
based upon the time at Greenwich. Tia
hour divisions were SO arranged that
New York. or eastern time. is exactly
Eve hours behind London; central
dms is six hours behind London. and
% on. The tendency Is evidently Al
most universally to accept the Gnaen-
witch. meridian as the starting point
and to base all calculations Of time
on it. Although the United States
maintains It's own observatory at
Washington, and prepare sits own nau-
dcal data, nevertheless. for all prac-
teal purposes Greenwich time and
calculations based on Greenwich
time, are universally used in both the
navy and the merchant marine. While
It might reasonably be expected that
there would be some sentiment and
national prejudice against the accep-
lance q Greenwich time a. the stan.
'Aard all over the world, the practical
benefits Of a universal standard are

.,r WALTER SC0TTS DOGS
famous Author Was Especially Fen1

at Abbotsford.

One Of my pleasant recollections Ia
that OF seeing Sir Walter Scott out On
q stroll with his dogs; tho scene be-
ing In the neighborhood OF Abbots-
ford. In the summer of 1924. while a.
yet the gloom OF misfortune had not
olouded the mind of tho great man.
There he was limping gaily along With
his pct companions amid the rural
scenes which he had tolled to secure
and loved 50 dearly.
SCOTS fondness for animals has
perhaps never been sumcienti1
acknowledged. II was with him .
kind of second nature. and appea1 u
have boon implanted whom - . eAn4

his grandfather. Robert Scott, at ean'

burxh Here, amid hocks Of sheep and
lambs, talked to and fondlsd by shop

with collies he was impressed with
degree Of affectionate feeling for ami
mails which lasted through life. At q
subsequent visit to Sandyknows, when
bis grandfather had passed away, ana
the farm operations were administer
ed BY Uncle ThomaG." he was pro
vided with Shetland pony to ride
upon. The pony was little larger
than many a Newfoundland dog. n
walked freely into the house and was
regularly fed from the boys hand. He
soon learned to ride the little pony

by cantering over the rough places IN
the neighborhood. Such were the Do

Neglect Most Important.

and are proving a greater men
ace elsewhere than here, yet
what little effort we as a city
make to rid Newport of malaria,
the origin and cause of most of
our sickness.
If one were asked, what has
been Newport's greatest obsta-
Gle to growth, the writer would
unhesitatingly say malaria. "
Perhaps the malaria of itself
has done less than half, but the
advertising of the same, the
dread of others to risk such in
lection of the blood, has I'M
doubtedly done more to. prevent

our proper and meet growth and
prosperity than any other con-
dition.
We have in mind small town
in South Carolina, Huntsville by
name, that is now Attracting ma
tional attention because Harris
ville's Board of Health is telling
her people how to rid the city of
malaria and spending a portion
of the public moneys in her cam
paign against the strongest pub
lie enemy, a bottom or lowland
city has.
The council has sought to for
tify Newport against the spread
of germs of various diseases
through ordinances to provide
and increase proper protective
sanitation precautions in the
dairies, restaurants, bakeries
and all lines of business which
sell foodstuffs:
Far more Important than
business, roads, streets, or any
department of a city's work is
the public health of that COM
munity and while extreme pro-
visions often prove irritating
and seem senseless to some, the
men who have made q study of
these issues are in a better pO-
sition to make the regulations
than we who are less informed
upon such matters.
The female Anopheline mos
quito is known to be the sole
purveyor of malarial germs and
as a city, Newport should make
more intelligent and per-
sistent campaign to remove
tie trouble carrying mosquito
for who can say that the best
energies, the best muscular de-
velopment, the best minds and
highest ambitions are not rob-
bed of power and shorn OF
strength through the benumb-
ing influences of malaria, when
these same elements in citizen
ship would unfettered have con
tributed larger, better, health

What Newport Secured.

The Independent of Tuesday,
August 5 published an article of
Mr.. w. D. McLain in which the
action of the county judge in al
lowing the council to have the
expenditure of $2374 of the road
money of District No. Six was
criticised.
In Justice to both Judge Coe
and the citizens and taxpayers
of Newport, we feel that state
ment of the whole facts in this
matter is certainly due. This
policy upon the part of the coun-
ty court in allowing the city a
portion of the road money Of
this district is nothing new.
Several previous county judges
have willingly accorded the city
a portion of this revenue. Sc
cond and Third, Walnut and Ha-
eel street, Malcolm Avenue, one
block on Front street, all recelv-
ed contributions varying from
$4,000 to $4,000 from Road Dis
trict No. 6's funds for the paw
ing of these thoroughfares.
The City of Newport pays
practically two-thirds of the
taxes of Road District No. 6.
. Why shouldn't the city receive a
portion of this?
Road District No. 6 in the an
nual settlement just made re-
ceived $6,762.42 and of this
amount Judge Coe has turned
over to the council $2374 for the
paving of Front street from
Main to Pine street, which is
the main street of travel used III
reaching the business section
from the ferry and to all the
country trade west of White
river. Viewpoints real share OF
the road funds of District No. G
is about $4,000, or at least that
is the part contributed by oul
taxes, of which Judge Coe thus
allowed the council the eXpendi-
ture of not quite One-half of the
tax raised from city property.
Newport levies a special
street tax of So per year upon
every able-bodied man and the
$4,000 in the city treasury
must meet a great many ave.
nues of expense besides street
Improvement, just as JackSo'
county must provide for more
than roads from her $4,000 an
Alual revenue.
Newport is not asking for ev-
erything and half of the road
tax raised upon her property
goes to the Improvement of the
country roads about the city.
Let us not arouse jealousies I'M
( founded by fact, for we are all
citizens of one county and glory
in IT,
And just as roads in a mate
rial way cement a people in
bringing them closer together,
so will a recognition of our mu-
tual obligations and the rights
of the other increase our public
spirit and pride and result in the
growth and development Of b.
county and city.
