Automobile delivery trucks loading up
in front of the grocery. Crowds every

either; just the ordinary run OF bust

houses, to towns across the state line,

They've got the business now-you
couldn't pry it away from Delevan with
a crowbar. incidentally they've made
Delevan one of the best towns to look
at and to live in anywhere in the
northwest-though no better than your
might become. And-here's the point
4 want to hammer home-every dol
lars worth of business that the organ.
lied business men of Delevan have
created for the town has benefited
everybody in the town, whether they
helped or not.
The business men of your town are
getting together. They are pulling to

town and for themselves.
You are getting the benefit. l don't
care who you are or what you are, SC
long as you live in this town, every.
thing that makes business here better
puts dollars in your pocket, whether
you have helped or not.
If you're helping-bully for you!
If you're not-well, aren't you just a
little bit ashamed of yourself?

A HOOSIER POET.

Do many of us know and realize
that Indiana was the birth place of
one of the greatest American poets
No! not Riley, whom all love, but
William Vaughn Moody, born at Spen-
Ger, Indiana, in 1858.
In the introduction to the complete
edition of Moody's works. Professor
Manly says of him that he had "the
richest intellectual and emotional en-
dowment possessed by and American
poet"
Moody died in 1910 when Ibis work
was growing into fuller and fuller
kinship with that of the elder and
most authentic poets of our tongue,
while retaining it's own unmistakable
individuality"
We boast of our Indiana authors,
however here is one comparatively un-
known to the most of us, who will
probably in time head the long list OF
Hoosier writer's of whom we are just
ly proud.

USE OF THE ALPHABET.

There is a tendency to ignore the
teaching of "a, B, Cs" as such in the
schools, and to teach reading by pho
netic and modern methods indep end
ent of the alphabet. This has led to
strange condition. Many young peo-
pie of average intelligence do not
know their English alphabet.
The use of the catalogue at the
library by patrons is not obligatory.
However, to obtain satisfactory re-
suits from the library, the use of the
catalogue is absolutely necessary on
the part of someone. 1t is much cas-
Ter to come in direct contact with a
book, even though you do not know its
title or author, by looking in the cata-
logue than by direct access to the
shelves, for books are often out of
range of ones eyes, too high or too
low, or classified in an unexpected
manner, so that it is like looking for
a needle in a haystack for an un-
trained person to seek definite knowl-
edge in the library stacks.
However, every non-fiction book in
the library is catalogued under title,
author and subject, often under sever
al subjects Hence If you are interest
ed in a book on a particular subject,
you will find all the books dealing
with that matter drawn together in
the catalogue under that subject
While they may be far apart for good
and sufficient reasons, upon the
shelves.
But one thing is essential in using
a library catalogue las well as an en-
cyclopedia, a directory or a diction-
ary), i. e.: thorough knowledge of
ones alphabet
AS a matter of convenience in the
ordinary affairs of life, why not teach
the English alphabet thoroughly as
such, in the public schools.

RICHARD WAGNER.

One hundred years ago, May %,
1913, was the date of Richard Wag-
ner's birth. AT that time, Beethoven.
Schubert and Weber had not written
their best works. Berliaz, Mendels-
sohn, Chopin, Schumann and Liszt
were mere children and Verdi was
born five months later.
Wagner's music still exerts the
strongest influence of any composer.
Many years ago it was said: Wagner
is the oxygen, the atmosphere which
modern opera breaths.' That state
ment is as true now as when it was
written. In fact we still have much
to learn about his dramas when we
associate the poetry and the music,

How's business in your town?
Business men sitting around and
complaining about it? 1t must be a
pretty sort of town if that's So
/ never saw town in which the
merchants were always kicking that
| amounted to anything
/ BY the same token, / never saw a
town where the merchants were salts
| fed that amounted to much.
The only towns that amount to any
| thing in these days are towns where
the business men neither grumble be-
cause business is bad nor sit con-
tented1y taking whatever happens to
some their way, but get together and
pull together and everlastingly hustle
to make more business for the town
and for themselves.
There's plenty of business-more
than your town is doing now, more
than you're doing. The only way to
get it is to go after it, and the best
way of all to go after it is to get to-
gether. Get together! That's the an
swer.
Don't grumble about bad business,
don't rest content with what the other
fellow doesn't happen to get, but make
up your mind to get more business
and get the other fellows to join with
you to get more business, too.
One man can get more business If
he goes after it, but two men can get
three times as much business as one,
and hundred men can get a thousand
times as much business as one. Keep
| it, too.
Just as soon as the people in your
towns trade territory discover that
| the business men of the town are
alive, aggressive business getters, your
town will get the trade that's now go
ing somewhere else-and more. Peo-
pie to deal with live ones"

A disoatch from this city published
in the Lexington Leader of yesterday
says:
"Swift Champ, editor of the Bour-
bon News, staunch Democratic
newspaper of this city, has thrown his
hat into the ring, and seeks the Office
of postmaster of this city under the
administration of President-elect
w oodruw Wilson. The announcement
of Mr.. Champs intentions to become a
candidate tor the misunderstanding. it is
said, follows a number of urgent re-
quests that have been made by num-
Der Of his ~staunch friends. among
1T is said Mr.. Champ has the back
ing Of number of influential politi-
clans of Paris and Bourbon county
who will go the full length for him in
his candidacy. and this. coupled with
his record as loyal Democrat. it is
calculated. will carry considerable
weight in the effort to secure for him
the appointment.
"Mr. Champ has. through the medi-
UNI Of his newspaper, been in the
front rank in the fight for the Dem
ocratic party. and at present is in the
thick OF the fray to further the cause
Of Hon. j. Z. w. Beckham for the
United States Senatorship. and was
one of the first Democratic newspa-
pers in the State to accord the for
mer Governor his support.
During the last race for the chair
manship of the State Democratic
Committee he supported the Hon.
Rufus FL. Vansant, and it was partly
through his efforts that the county in
structions were secured for him.
aside from this Mr.. Champ will
have the support of a number of poll
ticians IN adjoining counties who will
exercise their best efforts IN his be-
half. At the present time there are
four other candidates for the Office,
and.while 1t is expected there will be
very lively contest, it is the opinion
of his friends that his chances out
number those of his opponents.
