In military drills, there is such a
thing as marking Time and in this
case it serves a useful purpose. but
In the actual everyday work of life
there is no such thing as standing still
ror marking time. for those who are not
progressive in the lines of business
must make way for those who believe
in and practice progress.

business on the same lines that were in

Arrayed in her best and with divers
admonitions sounding in her ears, little
Mary started Off to Sunday school for
the first time. says Judge Following a
cordial greeting by the teacher, Mary,
upon disclosing her full name. age and
place OF abode, was duly enrolled as a
member of the class. To a question
asked her concerning the vocation OF her
father Mary. it was noticed, made no
reply. The Ieacher. repeating the ques-
ton, explained to Mary that she desired
to know what business her father was
engaged in--what kind Of work he did.
Still no response.
Impatient at the chflds obstinacy and
fearing its effect upon the other schol-
ars, who We're giving open-mouthed at

ch1ded Mary FOR her unseemIy behavior
and insisted upon her answering the

being used and to keep up with the
procession, p-econcefved ideas must be
abandoned for the more modern thar
fare proving successful.
A few years ago a. farmer went tic
a nearby neighborhood store, owned
by a man who thought there should be
no change in business methods, and
sought to buy a few pounds OF mails
for Immediate use. The storeleeper
told him that the price was eight
cents a pound. The man remonstrat-
ed and said that he could buy nails on
the railroad for three cents a pound.
That's all right" said the merchant,
you had better go to the railroad and
buy Them The farmer said he need
ed only a. few pounds and it would not
pay him to make a trip to a railroad
town to get them and he said to the
merchant You ought to get rich SELL
ing nails at that price" Yes" said
the merchant, "T could If could sell
enough The merchant was doing
pretty well then. but in two or three
years q. railroad was built near his
store and he had to go out of bust
ness More progressive men got the
trade that formerly went to him.
So it is all along the line, in every
avenue of business. the man who keeps
up with the times, is the man who is
going to succeed, while the one who
holds to anticipated methods lis, bound
to fail
This infalible rule is going to-appIy
with great force to farmers who have
raised nothing but cotton or any other
one exclusive crop. They are going to
have to become progressive and raise
other things that can be produced on
their farm, and that can be sold at a
profit.
But there is one exception to this
rule, as there is to most rules-honesty
and fair-dealing are correct principles
that never change and will last as long
as time endures.
The way to become progressive and
to keep progressive is to have always
a due regard for the Eternal Now.
Keep up with or ahead Of the process
sion today and you will be in the fore
front tomorrow.

Washington.-No president-elect has
ever found the capital Of the nation

Mr.. Wilson and his family arrived

With them in special trains came
students from Princeton University,
who formed lane from the train shed

One of Mr.. Wilson's last acts as a

dent and Mrs. Taft received them In
the Blue room. All the military and
naval aides to the president. in regalia
to their office. were present, but none
Of the cabinet.
The program arranged for the pa
geant and ceremony was virtually the
same as that of other inaugurations
Of recent years. The two big features
of the day were the induction Of the
president and vice president into Of
flee at the capitol and the parade that
followed these ceremonies.
Tuesday morning Senators Crane,
Overman and Bacon and Representa-
tives Mckinley, Rucker and Garrett,
comprising the joint congressional
committee on the Inauguration, called
at the hotel for the president-elect and
vice-president-elect. They were es-
corted to the White House by the
Essex troop and the Blackstone troop
of the Culvery Military academy.
through lines of students from Prince
ton University and the University Of
Virginia.
Shortly before noon President Taft
awaited them and the whole party
proceeded to the senate chamber at
the capitol. where the ceremonies be-
gan at noon with the Inauguration Of
the vice-president and swearing in Of
senators-elect. Then followed the
presidential Inauguration, the return
to the White House, where the retir-
ing president took leave of his success
sor, who reviewed the pageant from
the Court of Honor.
Many military and other marching
organizations participated in the pa
rade. The Tammany braves from New
York, for the first time in 20 years.
participated. About 10000 persons
were in the parade.
