THE ANNUAL VISIT.

A few occasional remarks"
in regard to my annual" may
be of some interest to readers of
this paper. Most folks like" gos-
sip" and Renaissance, particu-
larly as they grow older, and the
seen es, sights and lights of 9th
Ell days grow DINNER in the re-
ceding years. However appre-
ciative, | am sure none of the
readers of these lines can appre-
ciate fully what these annual
visits to the old home means to
me Some things-many things
and these the best and hottest of
things, cannot be expressed in
words or put in type.
A mountain scenery, the gran
deur of the ocean, the beauty of
a sunlit and sun-bathed valley
may be described in words or
put on canvas, but however skill
fully words and brush may be
handled there will still be "a
something" left out-an intan-
gible something which can only
be felt. For instance, | stood in
the road one night, looking tow
ards the mountain, darkly out
lined against the sky. l saw
far up the mountain side a light
moving slowly fitting between
trees and rocks. Somebody said.
"that Jim's 'possum huntin',"
and presently | heard the lone
some. pleading cry of his dog,
and then another and another
"harked" to him until the
mountain rang with the music
of the chase. 1t was a fox in
stead of a 'possum, and the
sound grew fainter and weaker
as the dogs topped the mountain
far away. and were soon-dogs
and sound gone. And then
came the hunters "whop-pee,
and later the sound of his old
cow horn which | knew he car
led slung across his shoulder by
a string. But heard more than
| have written here. Dark as it
was, | could see far back into
the misty past. and other chases,
other dogs, other hunters troop
ed by me, and old Tinker and the
valley as well, was repeopled,
and re-rang the music of other
days. Scient SITS tell us that a
sound once set in motion never
dies, but continues to vibrate
eternally. One can believe this
easily when he revisits the
scenes of his boy-hood, and lin
gers among the graves and old
buildings he formerly knew. The
beloved of other days talk, laugh
and sing and cry out of the dark
ness and wreckage and he can
testify that there are at least,
some sounds which never die.

FOR AND AGAINST

The Roanoke newspapers
World-News and The Times,
occupy an unique if not peculiar
position. Both publications are
owned by the same people prac-
tically, both published from the
same building. presses, etc., yet
opposed to each other on one of
the main, if not the main, issues
now before the people-pro-
hibition of the liquor traffic. The
papers are under separate edit
orial management, bat are hav-
ing some trobule to explain
matters. The readers of these
papers will, of course, get both
sides of this vexing question
one which the people of the
State will soon settle if given an
opportunity.

\ BUSINESS ADMINISTRATIONS.

Pres. Wilson is giving an example
of the possibility of conducting a bust
ness administration under the aus
pices of a political party. He has
announced that postmasters and
United States marshals must be COM
petent men and give their attention
TO the governments business.
This is a signal departure from an
cient practice. Heretofore. these po-
sitions. like many others. have been
used purely as rewards for party SER
vice regardless of the fitness of those
upon whom the appointments have
been conferred. The reward of the
faithful is not TO be abandoned. but
the faithful must show themselves
capable of conducting the offices TO
which they are appointed in a bust
ness-like manner.
Under the old practice it frequently
happened that everybody in the post
office worked but the postmaster and
the United States marshal was select
ed regardless Of his qualifications for
the office. Naturally the pOstOffice
department and the legal department
have had a lot of trouble resulting
from inefficient service. The post
master worked politics while the
clerks worked the mails. and in many
instances the United states marshal
knew about as much concerning his
business as the average man knows
about electricity.
Now the postmaster is asked TO
spend at least eight hours day at
tending TO the duties of MS office and
the United States marshaI must be
fitted by legal training and experience
10 perform his duties efficiently. This
looks like business

DIARY OF FAThFR TIME.

OF course there are a lot OF US who
don't wear diamonds mostly cause
We can't buy them; but then some Of
us don't like them anyhow. But there
are few who do wear them that know
the origin of the diamond or how il
came 10 be where it is found. Even
the wisest geologist cannot make a
reasonable guess on those questions.
It's nearly two hundred years since
the Orange river in South Africa was

that the great rush TO the diamond
