| dore Perry a special attraction in the
| Louisville celebration will be the re-
union of the Perry family, regardless
of kinship. Everybody by the name

The Kentucky Association, which
has in charge the Louisville celebra-
ton, has given an order for a quarter
of million ancestry certificates to be
handsomely engaved, and which will
be filled in and given away as souve-
Mrs to descendants of Kentucky SOL
diers and sailors of the War of 1912.
Another entertainment in their hon
or will be mammoth reception, at
which refreshments will be served and
opportunity provided for public ad-
dresses. For the few remaining actual
sons and daughters a banquet will be
given. A great ball will be given in
the First Regiment Armory, which has
a capacity of 10000 for them. #.
Forty per cent of the white male
population of Kentucky engaged in the
War of 1872, consequently forty per
cent of the succeeding generation were
really sons and daughters of that war,
and, estimating that one-half of them
intermarried with families which did
not participate in the war, sixty per
cent of the third generation were
grandchildren of the war, and in sim
liar manner at least seventy-fve per
cent and probably as high as ninety
per cent of the fourth and incoming
fifth generations are descendants of
Kentuckians who fought in that war
1t is estimated that in the state of
Kentucky alone one million men, wom-
en- and children are eligible to partici-
pate in the proposed reunion, and it
is estimated that another million now
living outside of Kentucky are eligible
to participate.
During the week of the celebration
in Louisville spectacular free events,
scale not heretofore given with any
American celebration, will be provided
every afternoon and evening. Pilgrim
ages to notable historic scenes of in
terest may be made in the mornings.
In addition to free attractions there
will be scores of the highest priced
amusement concessions that can be Sc
cured on the American continent.
The railroads in radius of 500
miles of Louisville have been asked
to make rate for the celebration
week and Immediately preceding and
following that week of one cent mile.
Railroads running out of Louisville
probably will give low rates to other
points in Kentucky, so that former
Kentuckians who live great distance
can visit their old homes as we'll as
attend the Louisville celebration.
Local committees are preparing an
1872 museum, in which they solicit the
loan of any souvenir or relic of the
War of 1912, providing the transpor.
tation at their expense, and guaran-
teeing that articles loaned for the
week will be returned to owners. This
for the time being will I'M
doubtedly be the most valuable collec.
ton in America.

The merchant paid more, but he got
more for his money. If you buy of

buyer compares this with the price he
would have to pay here and. noting
the difference, jumps at the conclusion
that everything in the mail-order house
must be less expensive. ~Paradoxical
as 1t may be, the mail-order goods
are cheaper but are not less expensive.
Ii such arguments were logically
sound there is still the social, moral
and religious view to be considered.
The retail merchant Is the backbone
Of the country town. The mail order
house is his worst enemy. The farm
ers need the town and the town needs
the farmers. If the persons in this
town who buy OF mail-order houses
could be brought to realize that buying
inferior goods at low prices is not
always a saving Of money, a big step
would be taken toward eliminating the
mail-order evil.
