worthless Rowdy Jim,
Nobody had any use for him;
Squsndered his earnings and hea. his wife.
And led his children wretched life;
1oafcd DER his beer till the hours grew small
Came late to his work. came not at all.
But that was some ten years ago,
Before we had Picture Show.
Like most of the crowd when the thing was new
Jim went to the Movies, too;
And what never preachin' could do fer him
The Movin' Pictures did for Jim.
One night when the loafers drank and swore
In the grogshop back Of jenkins store,
And called fer Jim. he Jest said. No
must take the kids to the Picture Show.
And ne took EN- too and he took his wife,
Twas the gladdest day Of all her life.
For she knew that Jim changed somehow,
And sure he's different fellow now.
Hell have his good time as many do.
But secs that his family has it, too.
Convertedl Well you might say so,
But twas all the work of the Picture Show.

The Ounce in School.

Every person in the world diff,
fers from every other person in
BODY, mind and character, but
because there are certain domin-
ant traits common to large groups
of people it is usual to separate
persons into classes.
The child who happens to be-
long to the class of human be-
ings who find it difficult to get
along rapidly in school, memor-
ize slowly and don't see through
things easily is often considered
a Ounce by his parents and tea
chers In reality he may be just
as bright as other children, only
the average school is organized
along lines that offer little chance
for his particular kind If ability.
The Ounce in school work Ct
the bookish kind may be super
ior in every form of executive
activity. The brilliant fellow il
book work may be utterly def
cient in practical executive ac-
tivities.
This last type is much favored
in schools. The other type usu-
ally has hard time, though it is
better now than ten or tltteen
years ago, when his kind of abil-
ity was not recognized at all.
The introduction Of manual arts
into the schools and the teaching
of subjects in a dynamic way
help him out.
We ought to DO more for this
type of boy than we do. We
ought to conserve, his native abll-
ity and develop him to the high
est extent. We ought to let him
go through school, even if he
cannot do we'll in grammar or
cube root. Sometimes the other
type is urged too far along his
special line without getting a
balance in practical activities

Aftermath of Missouri's Victory

EAtClIIloul vi 4 llSSOQll , VNlOIy
Jefferson City, Mo, March. = The
County Unit law recently passed will
go into effect about June 20. Until
then there is nothing to do but pre-
pare for county contests, and this the
Missouri drys will do thoroughly.
Each county will be carefully organ
lied before an election is called Pc
tition blanks will be supplied by .he
Anti-Saloon League.
Just now two mems praises are
being sung by the temperance folks OF
this state One of them is Charles M.
Hay, of Galloway county, who was the
dry leader in the house. Mr.. Hay is
leading layman in the M. E. Church
South, a bright lawyer and man TO
be reckoned with in Missouri politics.
To him, perhaps, more than to any
other member of the general assembly,
is due the credit for the great victory.
For ten years Chas. M. Hay has
been active in the movement in Mis-
souri, in various capacities. First, as
student orator, studying the question,
and as college organizer leading the
students of the state. Second, when
beginning law, he campaigned the
county, speaking in every school
house, in a campaign that. made the
county dry and Fulton the county
seat the largest dry city of the state
at that time Then, this was followed
by service as attorney for the Anti
Saloon League and by other law en-
forcement work, and later by part
in the campaign, three years ago, in
behalf of state Prohibition. Though
this did not succeed it was a tremen-
dous educational movement.
The other man who is in such good
taste here is Anderson Craig, sen-
ator, who introduced the county bill
in the senate and fought for it all the
way through. Senator Craig also in
troduced the white slave bill, which
was passed.

Little Talks
on Advertising.
"BUY-WORDS."

Just think how hard it would be
to always get the best things TO
eat, wear, and equip your home
with, if goods were not trade
marked and advertised.
Advertising presents to you ar
ticles of everyday use by name.
You try them. They satisfy in
quality and price. Ever after you
can be sure of getting the same
standard by asking for the same
article.
Thus you are protected against
substitution of articles. which are
more profitable for the merchant to
sell, but less satisfactory for you to
buy.
You'll find it wise and thrifty
habit to learn the names of the
good things advertised in these
pages, and so increase your vocab-
ulary CT good "buy words"

School for Saloonkeepers
They Need 1t

Milwaukee, March.-"A compulsory
college for saloonkeepers is the only
method of securing men who will live
up to the liquor laws and enforce
them," said Judge Neele B. Neelen, If
the local district court here some days
ago, just before fning local saloon
keeper $50 for selling liquor to
minor
Running saloon is like handling
dynamite" said the judge, land it
requires men of education to handle
both. What we need is an endowed
college so that all prospective saloon
keepers can be trained in psychology
so that their sense of perception can
be frightened. This would make them
able to judge the age of men and
would enable them to live within the
law"
The Judge thinks that saloonkeep-
ers ought to pass a rigid mental and
moral test.

SOUTHERN MhMES
GOOD SHOWING.

A splendid showing is made by
the Southern Railway in the annual
report which was made public at the
meeting Jig Richmond Yesterday. Dc
velopment of this great railway sys,
tenn has meant much to the develop
nent of the South and it is by means
of the fine work commenced years
ago by President Spencer and contin'
ued by President Finley that the COM
pany is able to report Increased rcT
enues.
President Finley calls special at
tention to the gratifying increases IN
the passenger earnings and points
out the reasons for the showing.
There is no doubt but that in tina
main his reasons for the increase
are correct but President Finley fails
10 lay stress on one most important
factor and that. is that tho Southern
Railway has the best and most loyal
corp Of passenger representatives OF
any railway company in the United
States. Their work for years has
been one of the marvcls of the rail
way world and no matter how other
departments have suffered through
, hard times the passenger earnings
have always shown gratifying in
crcaScS The gathering together of
this remarkable force of men and
their training in a spirit Of love and
loyalty to their company hes been
the life work Of S. II. Hardw'ck
passenger traffic manager Of the
Southern Railway. who has always
set before his subordiilates an exam
pie Of such intense devotion to the
interests Of his company that they
have always heen willing to follow IN
