In July 1899, the Fayette Tele-
phone Company secured a fran
chise for an exchange in Lexing-
ton at rates not to exceed $50 per
year for business houses and SIS
per year for residences, and was
glad to get the franchise at these
rates. After the Company got a
hold, they from time to time got
these rates raised by the City
Council aud Fiscal Court until
they now have them up to S4S aud

that the sale is illegal and should

the risk of having our business

it, but President Wilson is not

in the forum or the field, but by
his own fireside. There he lays
aside his mask and you may learn
whether he is imp or angel, king
or cur, hero or humbug. We care
not what the world says to him
whether they crown him or
pelt him with bad eggs; we care
not a copper what his reputation
or religion may be; if his babies
dread his home coming If his

every time she asks him for a five

But it his children rush to the
front gate to greet him, and
loves sunshine illumines the face

granted that he is true gold, for

Educational interests are too
great hindrance to the moral
development of the young too
often. 1t probably is not the case
iu all schools, and we are sure 1t
isnot now as bad IN Clay City as
iaformer years, but one thing is
certain, particular with boys,
close connections with each other,
and continued associations have a
goat tendency to corrupt the good
moral habits instilled into them
BY their precautions parents.
You often hear the remark by
Old men that boys of twelve now
know more immorals than they
use to know at vice that age.
they will also concede that these
same boys know more in their
s3udies also. The whole truth of
the case is we give our boys too
tuuch ''rope", In and out of
school. They cannot be watched
too closely. Too much restraint
cannot be placed upon them.
They must be deprived of the
privileges we are so anxious to
see them enjoy, and the privlleg,
%, our friends often tell us they
should be allowed to enjoy. Too
much latitude even with good
bovs, sometimes makes the whole
bunch a despicsble gathering of
Humanity.
1t is just and right to look af-
ter the education of the young,
but the parents are duty bound
TO develop in their children the
good morals all citizens should
possess. The teacher in school can
only teach the different branches
of his school aud advise as to the
eight thing to do out of school.
This they usually do, but when
aot in school, is the time when
to begin. Boys, q few or a single
hoy, starting to school with bad
habits, very often will contami-
aate the whole district, thus it is
imperative that the boy DO train
, ed right at home, that he will not
infect the whole school or com.
inunity Of boys when admitted to
associate with them.
Very often too often we have
our boys stared right, We grad.
ually allow them to drift into
society with other bows that we
know have had good home train
ing, but little too much rope,
aud the whole bunch falls togeth-
er. We will close by sdmonish-
aug parents to look after the girls
too, though they seldom are as
prone to evil az boys are.
