who have heretofore been kept in the
background, principally because they
were on the minority side.
Martin VIII Be Leader.
Senator Martin of Virginia probably
will continue to be the recognized
leader of the upper house. But other
old-timers like Bacon of Georgia.
Stone of Missouri and Simmons of
North Carolina will certainly be found
close to the head of the Democratic
council board. If he so desired Till
man of South Carolina undoubtedly
could have the craftsmanship of any i'm
portant committee he might select,
but the health of the South Carolina
senator is extremely delicate, and his
friends believe he hardly would dare
attempt the grilling work incident to
the Craftsmanship of one of the big
committees.
Conditions never were more pro
pitious for new men to make theil
mark, and senators like Hoke Smith o.
Georgia, Morris Sheppard of Texas
John w. Kern of Indiana, Luke Lea o
Tennessee, James O'Gorman of New
York, Joe T. Robinson of Arkansas
and few others are bound to attrac
the notice of the country in the mex
few years.

lnasmuch as it is an accepted fact
that badness, falling hair and dandruff
are caused by a germ, doesn't it stand

the only way to kill these germs is to
use Partisan Sage, which The Owl

least he has told Governor Brewer that
he did. and the governor has request
ed Sheriff Middleton to institute lit

something like twenty-five good sound

. GOOD SCHOOL


Tie value Of a good school to a
town i hard to estimate. We toe
frequently say that too much time
and thought arc given to education.
We hear ii said that the state is
education wild, that there is too
much consideration given the
question and too much money
being spent along this line.
Without raising an issue on
these questions the fact neverthe-
less remains that the town that
fails to offer the very best possible
along the line Of education is
going to fall behind in population
and material development.
The people are not only de-
handing the very best educational
facilities and opportunities for
their children but they want it
free or rather the result Of tax
alton. The free school is the pop
ular school Of today. This, too,
is the correct kind of d school. In
such a school the possession Of
wealth or non possession Of it does
not hinder the children of the
town III securing an education.
They arc on an equal
footing. They all have the same
show In preparing to meet life's
responsible duties. The higher
the grades taught free the more
attractive the school appears to
those families seeking d place to
locate to educate their children.
"A town can have no better asset
than a school preparing FREE, as llll
children Of the town, for entrance
into the colleges and universities
Of the south. II they do not de-
sire to 60 further they have a

Huntingdon needs just such. a

ward tendency. Her growth is Of
the substantial nature. Such a
school will make the town a more
desirable place III which to live

to the town as permanent citizens.

baking, which has the backing Of
science and approval Of fashion, is

TWO-FACED MAN

Nobody likes a two-faced man 81
woman. Singleness Of purpose is
a good thing. Truth IS the pearl
Of great price.
A two-taced man is disliked be-
cause you never know where to
find him. One face may be pleas
ant and the other sour. One may
invite you with a smile, the other
repel YOU with contempt. If d
mans two faces were alike, one
would be unnecessary.
A man is not like a church clock
in d tower, for that needs four
faces to tell the time to the four
quarters Of the earth. All these
faces must tell the same time, or
the clock il discredited.
lnere are more tW0-faced men
In politics than in any other walk
Of life. The people are just BE-
ginning to find it out. They play
On the public preiudices, weakness
and vanities. They appeal to the
lowest instincts of the crowd.
They stir up the mob spirit and
then run 0 I With the loot.
They make all sorts Of promises
and always fail in their perform
ance. They have the audacity to
adopt party platforms and then to
forget all about them after they
are elected.
What they want are the Offices,
fat salaries and ali opportunity to
play their favorites. Jasper, in
Leslie's.

Opportunities to make rapid
growth and material development
comes to towns just now and then.
The wise town has its eye open to
such opportunities and meets the
requirements necessary to secure
them. In the lives Of men the oc-
Icasion to do some great thing
comes only once in great while,
and if the individual fails to see
the opportunity or measure up to
the requirements, he loses the
pleasure and happiness of success
full effort. Towns and men are in
some respects alike. To succeed
both must seize the opportunities
and make things come to pass.
Huntingdon IS meeting such a test.

There is i disposition upon the
part OF some OF our neighboriug
towns to refer to Huntingdon as q
dead town. The statement does
Huntingdon very great injustice.
There is not a town in the county
The merchants Of which, taken as a
whole, are on as firm a financial
basis as are The merchants of
Huntingdon. Our merchants are
solid financially and are doing the
business to keep them so. Hunt
ingdon has two prosperous banks
with money to do a live banking
business, There are no unoccu-
pied desirable residences in town
and only about t@o of any kind.
Residence property is advancing
rapidly. Some good Improvements
are being made in the residence
portion of town. There is de-
mand for good homes, as much SO
as at any time in twenty years.
The financial condition of the
town is good. The public utilities
stand as a monument to the judy
ment OF the city authorities that
provided for them and saw that
they were properly put in. The
town owes in bonds about $4,000.
The mayor and aldermen at their
last regular meeting destroyed six
$500 bonds and $1,000 Of other ey-
licences Of Indebtedness, making
81, 800 paid off the past year. The
town has paid $4,000 in bonds
and has never allowed bond or
any interest to go to protest.
Her credit is tip-top in the bond
market.
The town is clean and we'll kept.

crete walks, fine parks, elegant
and we'll kept homes, attractive
shades and comfortable rest places
