Help the Infirmary.

Sunday was the day set aside in all
churches as Infirmary Day. 1t is the
one Sunday of the year when a special
plea is made from the pulpits to meet
the needs of this worthy and necessary
institution. No one, unless familiar
with the work done there has any idea
of its far reaching charity and the con-
slant care and the work it means to
continue it. The expense for the year
closing October LIST. was S4,05S. The
revenue from the county and city appro-
priations and pay patients reached 49,
347 and the difference the women have
made up by many means. 1t costs 3d.
Is day to maintain patient and many
persons are unable TO pay that amount,
some pay what they can and the deficit
is met by the work of the board and
association. They are very very anxious
that there may be thousand members
to the association a. dollar a member.
Till now the largest number has been
2S4. Wont you when you read this re-
solve at once TO join the rank and send
your dollar to the treasurer, Mrs. G. ID.
Simmons. Some good friends make
liberal annual subscriptions. Count the
infirmary in when considering your
donations for the coming year, anG visit
there and see for yourself what it means
to the community and most of all what
| its loss would mean.

Must PAY More Taxes.

Federal Judge Cochran held that the
L. & N, should pay taxes on sll, 900, 600
more before it is entitled to a temporary
injunction restraining the State from
collecting taxes on the amount its 1912
assessment was increased over the year
previous. This is just half the amount
the State Board of Valuation and As
sessment assessed it, and is double the
amount the road conceded to be fair
assessment. In 1911 the l.. & N. paid
on franchise value of Sill .S99. 200, but
in 1912 this was raised to $45. 42S, 074 by
the State Board of Valuation and As
sessment. This decision OF Judge Coch'
ran, therefore. puts the amount OF the
franchise valuation at $22, 500, 900.

Money in Tomatoes.

Thomas Adams, who owns a small
farm near Reyes Station, cultivated two
acres of tomatoes this year which has
Melted him over 500. and the crop is
not yet exhausted by many bushels.
The soil in this section, while not adapt
ed to the production of staple crops, is
peculiarly productive of many vegeta
bles, such as tomatoes, sweet potatoes,
cabbage, melons and berries.-Irvine
Tribune.

Tho touching tribute TO the dearest
friend on earth is by Ed o. Leigh, Of
the Bowling Green Messenger, whose
heart is as big as his body:
The sweetest name in all the language
is that of mother. 1t means more to US
earth-beings than even heaven itself, for
heaven is far away, and mother is with
US every moment until an angel comes
down from the skies and takes her spir-
it away, while we bury the mortal re-
mains in the cemetery, where for the
rest Of our own natural lives we may go
and pay silent tribute, while her own
sweet influence will serve to guide US
in our goings and comings along life's
pathway.
Brave sons and loving daughters are
called on to weep today, because of the
death Of q dear, loving mother. Beyond
the allotted time she was spared to them
and finally the end came, without pain.
without long suffering, but like the
sleep that comsth after day of activ-
ity.
No need was there to ask, sis it well
with thy soul?" A life OF conservation
to her God and to her family was suf-
ficient answer. No need was there for
death bed confessions and questions as
to the future state. All this was told in
her life's hist DRY:
So while we weep for the death of one
whom we loved. it is not as il we had
lost one we would never see again, but
that the temporary separation is pain
full We know that in the great hero az
ter we shall be reunited.
Thus may we all live and thus may
we all die, il we but emulate the exam
pie OF our dead loved one;
so live that when thy summons come,
to join
The innumerable caravan, which
moves
To that mysterious realm, where eacf
shall take
His chamber in the silent halls o
death,
Then go not, like the quarry slave at
night,
Scourged to his dungeon, but sustained
and soothed
By an unfaltering trust, approach tn,
grave
Like one who wraps the drapery of hi
couch
About him. and lies down to pleasan
dreams"

lncompetency or Careless
ness.

The mail service between Lexington
and Richmond is absolutely rotten. A
man can walk over with his letter before
it gets here by train. Sunday we mail.
ed two letters to the Climax, putting one
in the office at Lexington ourselves at 2
and the other at 8 p. m. Yesterday we
left Lexington for Richmond about 10
a. m. An hour or more after our arrival
in Richmond we got the letters from the
postoffice Mr.. Gordon having failed TO
get them by an earlier mail. Assistant
Postmaster Hubert Griggs says he as
sorted the mail in the morning and the
letters wern't in it. The fault is there
fore in the Lexington postoffice or with
the postal clerks on the cars, and we in
tend that the fault shall be disclosed as
to its source. The letters should have
been here at midnight Sunday. When
the same thing happened several weeks
ago we made no public comment on the
gross incompetency or carelessness, sim
ply reporting the matter to the postmas-
ter. Patience has now ceased TO be a
virtue. Such service is worse than
none.

Daily Climax Would Not
SUNRISE.

Speaking of the transition of the
Harrodsburg Leader from the weekly
to the semi-weekly class Col.W. p.
Walton says in the Richmond Climax;
1.-THE time will come when weekly
paper will be rarity. We cant see
how the editors OF them can stand the
slow motion now. Asemi-weekly seems
mighty slow to us after IA years or
dailes."
We have often wondered how a man
of Col. Walton's intensity OF energy
ever kept out Of the daily newspaper
field as long as he did. He ran the
Stanford Interior Journal AS twice
a-week paper for many years, but h
put in more hard work on 1t than thu
average editor puts in on a daily. We
should not be surprised to see Daily
Climax at Richmond some OF these days
and it really looks as If there should b
field for such pape..-Frankfort Stat'
Journal.

Poultry Association.

On Saturday afternoon at 2:3O p. m,
quite a number of the poultry fanciers
and those so interested, met at the Nc
Kee Rink for the purpose of recognizing
the: Madison County Association and
to begin preparations for the Poultry
Show. Mr.. Harry Morgan was elected
president; Walter Q. Park, secretary; A.
