Ansley's, the popular dry goods store

A MEDICAL OPINION ON UP.TO-
DANCES

The latter-day dances have been dis
cussed and criticised from almost ev-
cry standpoint. To complete the list,
The Journal of the American Medical
Association has recently raised it's dig
nified and professional editorial voice
in gentle warning. at seems some
what late" it says, ito enter a mild
protest against the fervor with which
the newest 'so-called' dances have been
taken up by public already saturated
with various nerve and mind destroy
= y amusements and caprices. 1t seems
Unnecessary to call attention to thu
act that the tango, the various waltz
90, the make, etc, are being arduously
Iltiyated by callow and calloused old
9. The problems created by theSa
dances differ according to the age OF
he participants; for the young the
~'estion of morality is paramount; for
he old the possibility of too great a
strain on dllated heart or an artcr-
osclerotic vessel is apparent. The ply
stefan will do we'll to caution the stiff
ininted aged natiant who darivnr foc
great a pleasure from these--to him
potentially harmful amusements."

LOST-A PRESIDENT.

No one will be surprised to learn
as the story goes-that President Will
son went down to the capitol and got
lost. Nor will any one who has mar
veled at the mighty rambling, and Dae-
dalian structure think the less of him
for it. 1t will not ALLEVIATE the farme "
vote, nor excite the sneers of the more
sophisticated.
The capitol is a good place to get
lost in. If one really wants to get lost
and is in deadly earnest about II,
there's prcbablye no more likely aggrc-
cation of granite and mortar available
anywhere When joined to that char
acter of mind to which the chief ex-
ecutive has made confession-thes sin
gle-track kind-success in getting lost
there Is almost assured. Those who
take keen interest in the obvious AMI
superficial would have greater diff
Guilty. Such can easily get their bear
ings from the big rotunda, with its
pictures of six-toed Indian warriors
or the more resplendent attractions Of
statuary hall. But to those for whom
hooks and corners, and queer side re-
cesses, and the patient efforts of Bru-
midi's wonderful genius have greater
appeal-such may go far and fare bet
ter, albeit with uncertain issue to their
venture.
The thought is timidly advanced thai
the country will rather approve of tht
whole occurrence. Neither life, MOI
politics, nor capitols are built on thu
straight line and simple precept
Which. however, only serves t.
istrengthen faith in che whose instinct
i've rule Is to gauge them as thoug'
they were. There Is an ancient tradi
tion of Napoleon's desire to learn tn,
secrets of the Austrian court, and a
how he was forced to send one of th'
old ncblesse before the heart of thu
imperial cabinet could be penetrated

A CHRISTMAS HYMN

Many great events of history have
furnished themes for the poets. The
Nativity, the greatest OF all events, has
been the theme Of song and story sinco
taat holy night in Bethlehem. Carols OF
the Nativity will continue to be sung to
the end of time
One of the most beautiful of Christ
mas hymns was written by the beloved
Bishop Philip Brooks for his Sunday
school class in 1868. He had spent the
Christmas of 1866 in Bethlehem and his
sacred meditations are embodied in the
following hymn:
o little town of Bethlehem,
How still we see thee lie;
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by;
Yet in the dark streets shineth
The everlasting light;
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight.
For Christ is born of Mary;
And gathered all above,
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wond'ring love.
O morning stars, together
| Proclaim the holy birth;
And praises sing~to God the King,
How silently, how silently,
And peace to men on earth.
How silently, how silently,
The wondrous gift is given!
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His heaven.
No ear may hear His coming,
But in this world of sin,
Where meek souls will receive Hi
still
The dear Christ enters in.
o holy Child of Bethlehem,
Descend to us, we pray;
Cast out our sin, and enter in,
Be born in US today,
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell;
o come to us, abide with us,
Our Lord Emanuel.

WHY FARMERS PAY HIGH RATES
OF INTEREST.

In the current issue of Farm anf
Fireside, the national farm paper pub
lished at Springfield, Ohio, Judson C.
Welliver, the Washington correspond
ent Of that publication, writes an in
teresting article in which he shows
how farmers have to pay high rates OF
interest in this country because they
have no system of collective credits,
such as has been developed for the
benefit Of farmers in certain foreign
countries. The substitution of com
munity credit for individual credit is
what always reduces rates of interest.
| Cities borrow their money at lower
rates of interest than individuals
because they act as community. Fol
lowing Is an extract from Mr.. Wei
liver's article showing the rates of
interest farmers pay in this country at
the present time:
Recently the department of agricul-
ture investigated interest rates paid
by farmers all over the country it
was found, through statements maze
by several thousand banks in answer
to questions, that on all loans to farm
ers, secured and unsecured, the aver
age rates run from trifie under six
per cent in most of New England

Broadly, banks accommodate their
interest rate with reference to tn
average balance the borrower may be
expected to carry in the bank. A bust
ness man borrows $4,000 for ninety
days It's experience with that man
justifies the bank in expecting that his
daily balances throughout that ninety
day period will average $4,000; there
fore it shades the rate of interest Il
him. But farmer borrowing money is
likely to take the entire amount away
In his wallet, and to maintain mighty
unimportant balance during the period
the loan has to run; then he will Sc
a bunch of hogs, cattle or bin Of
wheat, and with the proceeds pay the
loan. Because of such conditions, the
farmer must of necessity pay higher
rates for his money because it might be
said, he uses it harder

MAKES OVER 100
MILES AN HOUR.

indianapolis, Ind, May 1.-(Speci-
records, not excepting those of avi-
ation Jules Goux, the French motor
pilot has succeeded in covering 106
miles, 307 yards, in an hour, driving
the Peugeot car which he will pilot
in the third annual 500 mile Interna-
tional Sweepstakes race, at the Indian
apolis Motor Speedway, May 80. The
best record made in a motor car here
tofore was that OF Percy Lambert,
who driving a Talbot car made 1913
miles ia yards in an hour. Goux's
record beats that of Veriine the avi-
ator, who held the worlds speed rec
ord. having made a flight at Chicago
In which he covered 104 1-2 miles in
an hour.
Goux has been testing his car at
Brooklands for several weeks In pre-
paration for the 500 mile race at In
dianapols. Since Percy Lambert
made his unusual record, Goux has
made three efforts to beat 1t, sue
ceeding on his third attempt. On his
first trial the Frenchman proved that
his car had the necessary speed, but
loosened shock absorber caused him
to discontinue the run before the hour
had elapsed. During his second at
tempt he was beset with tire trouble
and was compelled to make two stops
Even with this handicap he drove 100
miles 321 yards in the allotted sixty
minutes. The remarkable record
which he has at last succeeded in max
ing only bears out the statement he
made when he first went to Brook
lands, in which he promised to defeat
all worlds records before participat-
ing in the Indianapolis race. The car
which he is driving is now known
Throughout England and France as the
indianapolis Peugeot.
