STRENUOUS LOVEMAKING.
Duke William Tanned Matilda, and She
Got Square on Brihtric.

Duke William Tanned Matilda, and She
Got Square on Brihtric.
A modern lover who resorted to
brute force to win his lady would soon
find himself in the street. if not In the
police station. But fashions in pro-
posals have changed in a thousand
years, and when William the Conqueror
set out to make Matilda, daughter Of
the Count of Flanders, the happiest
OF maidens he adopted measures that
were forcible, to say the least. The
New York Sun tells the story Of his
tempestuous wooing:
The sutton Matilda had she did not
want, and the man she wished to WOO
her she could not get. The man she
did not want happened to be William,
duke of Normandy, and he decided to
go to Bruges and conquer Matilda.
There were no national roads through
France in those days, and William
doubtless had n hard trip. Perhaps
Matilda noticed the mud on his clothes
when she came out of church and
found him waiting for her.
At any rate, William descended from
his horse, and taking Matilda firmly
by the back of the neck. rolled her
over and over in the mire Of Bruges,
planting well directed blows upon her
royal face and body with his other
hand. Life was elemental thousand
years ago.
This strenuous lovemaking somehow
appealed to Matilda. Perhaps it was
what she would have liked to do to
Brihtric, the gentleman she could not
get, who was only the English am
baSsador at her fathers court and not
ut all proper person to be snubbing
a princess. So Matilda sent word to
her father that. sick In health and
dolorous in body" she had firmly re-
solved to marry no man but Duke
william.
Later, after William had conquered
England, heezgered his queen the
estates of any English nobleman she
might name. Matilda did not have to
think twice She not only chose Bril-
tries estates, but she put him I'm prison
and kept him there all the rest of his
life-an excellent argument for the
wise custom Of restricting woman'S
choice to one year In four.

Tired of Frozen Wind

For years no evening function
has been deemed properly conduct
ed, unless ices in some form ap-
peared ON the menu of the mid
night supper. The argument in
favor of the frozen dainties was
that dancing young people demand
ed GOODNESS for their painting pal
ates. And so from time imme-
mortal, vanilla, chocolate, and
strawberry ice cream, and orange
and lemon ice froze the "tummies"
Of society.
1t is pleasant to note that at
some notable social occasions this
summer the entertainers broke
away from this refrigeration pro-
cess and served instead, eggs and
toast and coffee. Moreover this
supper was really reIished, as fol-
lows hours of strenuous dancing of
the popular athletic steps.
Recently a dance given by one
of the most lavish entertainers in
New York Society lasted SO far into
the morning that buckWheat cakes
and sausage were served to the
dancers loath to leave. The spec
tacle of men and women in the
present style of evening attire
wrestling with syrup and gravy
must have been edifying from the
standpoint of difference"
While it was not stated that the
purpose of the hostess was to chase
her guests, certain it is that even
the most ardent devotee of Terpsi-
chore would not care to linger to
indulge in the Tango or the One
Step after such meal at FIVE in
the morning. With considerable
curiosity Society awaits the next
development dietary in its regimen,
provided by entertainers in quest
of novelty.

Live and Let Live.

The policy of live and let live is
grand one. In the first place to live
is serious thing, and must be regard
ed as such before we can get the best
results-the most happiness from liv-
ing. We must ever be ready to help
our fellowman who is ''down and
out" Put him on his feet again, help
him to start anew, discourage his evil
ways, and by so doing. we not only
help him, but we make our own lives
worth living. To let live is equally
as grand. When we kill the little
harmless creations, we do not stop to
consider That little creatures life is
as dear and sweet to it as yours. Had
you ever thought about it? And the
man who will Intentionally kill the
innocent little animals, shows not
only cruelty and basenesS, but shows
his relation 10 the lower animals that
are continually trying to show their
superiority over those inferior to
them.

Turn to the Right.

We often notice articles in our ex-
changes warning drivers of wagons,
buggies and automobiles to turn to
the right always when meeting a
vehicle. We think the same rule ap-
plies also to foot travellers, or at least
it should, but the rule is not followed
altogether in Columbia. Not many
days ago we saw four young ladies
coming down the side walk, walking
arm in arm and coming up the side
walk was an old and respected lady,
and instead of the young ladies giving
way to the old lady, she had to step
off the walk to give them room to
pass. This is of every day occurrence
on our streets. Self respect if moth
ing more, should cause anyone to give
half the walk to a passer by.

Panama Exposition.

San Diego, Cal.-San Diego is to see
the re- production of the caravels Of
Columbus, the Santa Maria, the Pinta
and the Nina, and the harbor of San
Diego is to be first one on the Pacific
Coast of the United States to hail
them, after they have passed through
the Panama Canal.
These productions of the caravels
of Columbus, constructed for the
Worlds Columbian Exposition in
Chicago in 1893, having been in Jack
son Park, in Chicago ever since that
time, but on the fifteenth of the pres
ent month they left the Jackson Park
lagoon, and really started on their
long journey to the Pacific Coast. They
were first taken to the drydock at
South Chicago, where they will re-
main until they are made entirely
seaworthy.
From Chicago the little fleet will
proceed to Boston, and there they will
tie up for the winter. In the spring
they Will be manned by crews of
students from Harvard and begin
their long cruise. 1t is planned to
skirt the Atlantic, stopping at San
Salvador, the first land discovered by
Columbus, and then on to Panama
and through the Canal.
Doubtless the little vessels will be
compelled to stop at some Pacific port
on the west coast of Central America
or Mexico for supplies, but the first
stop on American soil after their pas
sage through the canal will be at San
Diego.
Andrew Kaul, of Boston, a Harvard
man, is behind the movement to bring
the caravelS to the Pacific Coast for
the expositions in 1915. He has fur
niShed the Jackson Park authorities a
sufficient bond to insure their return
to Chicago. Winfield Hogaboom, of
the San Diego Exposition, has taken
up the matter of entertainment of the
crews of the ships while they are in
San Diego harbor, with Mr.. Raul, and
has been assured that the fleet will
stop in San Diego harbor for sufficient
time to permit of proper and fitting
ceremonies, in connection with the
Panama California Exposition in San
Diego.

Big School Rally.

On Friday afternoon, Aug. %, 1913,
The entire school of New Clear Spring,
near Ozark, which is being taught by
Mr.. Velmer Aaron, paid Mr.. Albert
Bryant and his pupils, of the Dunbar
School visit.
When the time drew near for the
crowd to start, number of carriages
were present to convey the pupils oil
the former district to the latter. In
about forty minutes the throng enter.
ed the shady grove which surrounds
the latter place. On reaching the
pIaygrouns, we found them thorough
Iy equipped to offer us hearty recep.
ton. After amusing ourselves with
games and associating with friends,
some ice-cold refreshments were serv-
ed which was highly appreciated by
the guests. Then b Ith schools united
together and after enjoying some very
line singing and prayer, led by Mr..
r. B. Reeves, engaged in an old time
spelling exercise, which all seemed to
enjoy very much. A brief program
had been arranged consisting of the
following:
LIST. Character Building, by Mr.. Al
bert Bryant, in which the speaker
dwelt upon the Importance of every
boy and girl forming noble charact-
er in early life.
End. How the parents can help the
school, by Mr.. VeImer Aaron. the
speaker insisting upon the co-opera-
ton of parents and teachers, that the
home and school might be drawn
closer together.
Ord. Wig the child should attend
the public school, by Mr.. r b. Reeves,
in which he very specifically pointed
out.the value of an education and the
spiritual, intellectual and moral infiu-
ence upon the race of the whole.
4th. The Relation of the home and
school, by Mr.. W. G. Mckinley, dwell
ing upon close cooperation of parents
with teachers, and the value and i'm
portance of the early home training
of the child: pointing out the fact
that as the child is in the home so
will he be in school.
At the close of the exercise the
schools were called again to the play
grounds where both schools assembled
in one group and had their pictures
made by the noted photographer, Mr..
B. B. Montgomery. We believe it is
absolutely necessary for the teachers
and districts to keep in touch and ex-
change methods of teaching, keeping
forever in mind that principle which
prompted our forefathers to blaze the
way through the tractlesS forest in
search of that temple of wisdom.
When the parting hour arrived all
expressed themselves as having spent
the time most pleasantly.

COVER CROPS.

Kentucky is land largely made up
of rolling, billy, or even mountainous
areas with most of its soil of clay
formation. These two conditions pre-
sent a most favorable combination for
washing and i'm nearly every part of
the state one becomes impressed with
the terrible damage done annually by
the Outlying of sloping areas caused
be heavy rains. Corn is Kentucky's
principal crop, especially from the
standpoint of area planted, and this
crop after the thorough loosening of
the soil from cultivation during the
summer leaves the ground in perfect
condition for washing and subsequent
outlying. The most effective way of
preventing this great damage to our
farms is by never leaving these culti-
waited areas open to the heavy rains of
fall and winter. this being prevented
by providing some growing crop to
cover the ground during these seasons.
The plant most in favor as cover
crop in this state is rye. This is be-
cause of, the relative cheapneSs of
seed, the lateness at which rye can be
sown, the comparative certainty of
getting a stand, its degree of immuni-
ty to winter freezing, and the pasture
which the crop furnishes before plow-
ing under preparatory to the next
years crop.
Rye as a cover crop may be SoWn in
the field any time from September Is
to October Is, the earlier seeding often
furnishing good late fall and winter
pasture. 1t would be an excellent
practice if each farmer would annual
ly sow enough rye as regular crop to
provide sufficient seed for planting all
areas on the farm which otherwise
would be left naked during the win
ter.
Doubtless the only shortcoming of
rye as cover crop is that it does not
feed upon nitrogen taken irectly from
the air and hence adds more OF this
valuable element of plant food TO the
soil. We must look to the So-called
leguminous plants to perform this
function. Hairy, or winter vetch
perhaps best supplements this need,
and can be successfully grown with
rye by reducing the quality of rye seed
and sowing during September, pre-
ferably not later than the 18th of that
month. Rye and vetch after mixing
can be sown from the grain drill, in
which case from two to three pecks of
rye and about twenty pounds of vetch
per acre should be used. Winter vetch
has slim stem, leaflets somewhat re-
sembling those of alfalfa in shape, and
a blue clustering blossom which APP
pears shortly before the ripening of the
rye. It's reclining nature makes the
rye of great benefit in its support for
with it's tendrils the vetch climbs
nearly to the full height of the rye.
The feeding value Of vetch is excel
lent and more Kentucky farmers should
test its merit as a cover crop, with
rye.
