DISCOURAGED
NEVER,
Many Friends do Not Realize The
True Condition Of Affairs
at the Present
Stage.

The first days returns in the Y. w.
Y. A. campaign for the remaining
funds for the building were slow.
Many OF those who were seen and
who will contribute were not vet
ready to specify an amount, and the
ladies were not able to report as
much as they had hoped but they
were not in any measure daunted by
the first days experience and were
out again this morning with quite as
much vim as yesterday
Many friends do not realize that
all further plans fer furnishing and
equipping the; building have been en-
tirely stopped until the remaining
funds are secured. The building COM
mittee have kept faith with the previ-
GUS givers and have carried the build
ing along to it's present state on the
strength of the previous gifts, but
having come to the end of their re-
sources they have now stopped and
will give no further contracts for fin
lshing or furnishing until the remain.
ing necessary funds are provided.
This building is to belong O the citi-
zens of Keokuk, and it is heir gifts
which Will finish it. The members of
the committees are making every ef-
fort to see any and all who may be
interested, but they cannot do more
than give the opportunity by asking
and must leave the decision about the
gift to those who are seen. The asso-
citation, however, has many warm
friends and supporters In the com
munity who will not be willing to see
the building closed unfinished Now
lis the time to decide whether the
association can really have this Luild.
/ ing this summer or whether they
must still wait and see this splendid
structure closed for the lack of the
final finishing and equipment.

tary; Mrs. g. M. Covell, treasurer OF

them of a pledge.

PINKERTON'S HITHERTO UNPUBLISHED
STORY OF THE FIRST ATTEMPT
TO ASSASSINATE LINCOLN

of Illinois, and Senator Seward. We
then proceeded at once to Wizards
Hotel, where Mr.. Lincoln registered
his own name and that of Mr.. La
mon and myself, and was assigned
rooms, though not those he expected
he would have, as he had arrived
somewhat in advance Of the appoint
ed time. During the morning after
the news Of his arrival had spread,
there was more or less excited talk.
Few men were willing to believe he
had actually reached the city, and
many were the vile and bitter impre-
cations heard heaped upon his head
while mingling with the crowds in
the hotels and public places Of that
rebelious city. Its people, as a rule,
appeared scarcely more favorable to
the Union than in Baltimore. Mrs.
Lincoln, accompanied by Mr.. Judd
and the rest Of the party, followed
in due time. Before they left Har-
risburg, the news had been telegraph
ed all over the country Of the safe
arrival Of President-elect in Wash
ington. In passing through Baltimore
they met with anything but cordial
reception. At Mr.. Lincoln's sugges-
ton, returned to Baltimore that
afternoon for the purpose of learn
ing whether those who sought his
life in that city might not amend
their plot so as to attempt to destroy
him on the day Of his inauguration
and I accordingly remained there till
after the latter event had taken
place"

THE AUTOMOBILE BUG

James Montgomery Flagg writes
an amusing piece in the January
American Magazine about buying an
automobile. Following Is an extract:
From the moment you are bitten
by the great Klaxon horned Case
lene bug the motor car takes prece-
dence OF everything else-home ties.
duty, the hope of future life, all
are forgotten for the time being.
"Your library table is Uttered with
specifications, booklets and photos of
every kind Of car; so is your desk.
Your overcoat pockets bulge with
them. You spend hours which ought
to be spent at your desk, standing
around on the CLASSY floors of the
motor harems amongst the potted
palms listening tc the sirens soft
ly honking Of their wares.
you even come sneaking back at
night, when the shops are closed, and
gaze hypnotized through the Pitts
burgh panes at the car of your dream
then back again after breakfast with
the fanatical enthusiasm of the Wag-
nerite at Bayreuth.
While Polly is trying the seats of
the smart town car up near the win
dow, one of the Benzine Brummels is
telling you something beginning with
L guess you've heard this one. Stop
me If you have"
This Is done to rest your brain
from exertion of trying to understand
why the tail light is not attached to
the radiator fan.
Otherwise these cataracts of diff
ferentials,' multiple disk cone clut
ches,' timing gears and splash sys'
tens, would rock your mentality and
perhaps make it turn turtle and sink
at the dock!
They speak kindly of other cars
and tell you in what essentials they
are lacking, not knocking, mind you
or only little in one cylinder!
They pass debonairly over the stu
| pid and minor considerations of con
struction and leap, as it were, with
a glad cry of home coming to the i'm
portant points like, the cigar lighters
and the initials on the door panels
There is where they are on safe
ground and can become eloquent.
They show you scrap books full
Of testimonial letters from regular
business men-regular fellers who
sit at desks and have telephones and
paper weights and office boys and
things-letters written on bonafide
typewriters and they have PIG
down in the corners just like real
letters.
These men write and tell them
how crazy they are about their new
cars-how they would rather be
wrecked In one Of their cars than
ride safely In any other make. You
can't help being impressed.
"You put Off telling them that you
are going to buy a second hand car
as long as you can"
The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1913-01-28
HOW DID YOU
SPEND THE LAST
SIXTY MINUTES

In a little article entitled Sixty
Minutes Of Salary" in the January
American Magazine, William John.
ston says:
Did you ever reduce your income
to hours? You make, say $4,000 .
year, or fifty dollars . week. You
are at your desk eight hours . day
and four on SATURDAYS. For each Of
the forty-four hours you receive one
dollar and thirteen cents.
DO you earn It?
III you are honest with yourself
you will have to admit that you do
not at least not every hour. Just
for the fun Of 1t keep tab some day.
As you go out Of the office at noon
ask yourself what you have done in
the last four hours. More than like
ly you were a few minutes late that
morning. How much time did you
spend chatting? Was 1t square
deal to your employer to be writing
those personal letters? 1t will amaze
you to find how much time you have
frittered away. You will be glad
tibet your employer is not looking
over your shoulder. Perhaps you will
even understand why he does not
raise your salary.
Watch men who are getting ahead
in the world, men who are working
their way up or who are in business
for themselves. You'll find most Of
them working sixty.one minutes to
the hour.
ITO attain success a man doesn't
have to work twenty-four hours q
day. II he works eight hours OF six.
ty minutes each he can do It. Relax.
alton and play and a proper amount
Of sleep are as essential to success
as work is. It's the man who works
when he works and plays when he
plays who gets the most out Of life
1T is making the minutes count
that makes life profitable.
by the way, how did you spend
the last sixty minutes? Let's hope II
was on something worth while"
