Talking Pictures Exhibited.

The Edison Talking Pictures
will be exhibited in Richmond
next week at the Bijou, giving
two performances a day, OPEN
ing Monday matinee at $50,
night $3.50. All seats reserved.
Prices 25 cents and SO cents,
and matinee, 25 cents.
1t is another of the marvels
amanating from the brain of the
wizard of Manic Park, Thomas
A. Edison. He makes the motion
pictures talk, each one with its
own tone, which apparently is
produced from the actors
mouth as the words are spoken.
1t is Il wonderful illusion. Let
us suppose that it had been
possible to reproduce the court
scenes during the reign of
Napoleon. Who would not go far
to see II talking picture where
the voice and personality of one
of the mighticst figures that
ever stormcd across the world
could be reproduced true to life?
What would be the meal
culablc interest to us today will
be of equal interest 10 tAQSa,Nho
people this world 200 years
hence? We have historic figures
in our present-day history, men
whose names will live as con-
tributors to the political, mill
tary. financial and sociological
history of the age. That pictures
of the worlds greatest men and
women may be seen and heard
to speak has added new Won
der to the world, yet within
short time the wonder will
cease, and we will accept it
simply as an incident to an age
of wonderful inventions. Mr..
Edison's latest and probably one
of his greatest achievements
will receive notable reception
here, for every one will want to
see this marvel. Evening jour

The East River Road.

Just a word concerning the
East River Mountain road, from
Clear Fork to Graham. My story
is short but l feel that | want a
few lines printed on this matter
1t seems that the kickers on the
road are all at Hickman.
There's one thing want to say !:
Owing to the amount of money
we have for this road it COM
pels us to get to market by the
shortest distance. Will it be
better for us to travel the dis
lance of five miles out of our
way, to get to market, to please
the Hickman kickers? They
have no market for us, they have
no manufactures, and | don't
see any prospects for market at
their place. We want the nearest
route to Graham depot; we can
get our produce to them if they
make the price right. Can they
compel us to take their price by
having the road through Hook
man? No the market is too
great. Is it right for us to loose
the amount of money that has.
been spent on the north side of
the mountain going east? We
accepted the first survey made
by S. M. Graham, it being the
nearest and best location.
There were only $4,000 appro-
priated for this piece of road,
and we have been trying with
all our might to build the road
with that amount of money. We
also contributed our improved
dirt road money, and, with the
aid of this money, there is not
enough money to complete the
mountain road by the shortest
survey. AS it is Il distance of
nearly five miles farther by way
OF Hickman, we want to know
where the money is to come
from to complete the road? How
many of the Hickman kickers
are willing to help complete the
road on their location? Do they
want to build up their town at
our expense? We don't feel that
we are able to stand such as
that; we just want a landing on
the other side.
Well, gentlemen, I'll ring-of
for this time, as | don't. want

filled with my writing.

A Dogs Impression of Drunkard

In the July Anne RIGA n
Magazine, Don Marquis wri ties
9 dog story entitled "Dogs and
Boys" in which the dog tells as
follows about his adventures
with a drunkard:
Bill was the town drunkard,
and all of us dogs used to run
and bark at him when there
were any humans looking on. |

at it, but it was the fashion. We
didn't have anything against
old Bill either, but we let on like
we thought he was tough

was looking at us. If we ever
met old Bill towards the edge of
town, where no one could see
us. we We're always friendly
enough with him, too. Bill liked
dogs. and used to be always try
ing TO pet us, and knew just the
places where a dog liked to be
scratched, but there wasn't a
dog in town would be seen
making up to him. We'd let him
think mabye we were going to
be friendly, and smell and sniff
around him in an encouraging
sort of q way, like we thought
maybe he was an acquaintance
of ours, and then old Bill would
get real proud and try to pat our

The Golden Side.

There is many a rest in the road
of life,
If we only would stop to make
it;
And many a tone from the better
land,
If the querulous heart would
take it.
To the sunny soul that is full of
hope,
And whose beautiful trust
ne'er faileth,
The grass is green, the and
flowers are bright,
Though the wintry storm
prevalent.
Better to hope though the clouds
hang low,
And to keep the eye still lifted,
For the sweet blue sky will soon
peep through,
When the ominous clouds are
lifted! ssss-
There was never night without
a day,
Or an evening without a
morning;
And the darkest hour, as the
proverb goes,
Is the hour before the dawning.
There is many a gem in the path
of life
Which we pass in our idle
pleasure,
That is richer far than the
jeweled crown,
Or the miser's boarded
treasure;
1t may be the love of little
child,
Or a mothers prayers to
heaven,
Or only a beggar's grateful
thanks
For a cup Of water given.
Better to weave in the web of
life
A bright and golden filling,
And to do Gods will with a
ready heart,
And hands that are swift and
willing,
Than to snap the delicate,
minute threads
Of our curious lives asunder,
And then blame Heaven for the
tangled ends,
And sit and grieve and
wonder. Kidder.

To Editors Clinch Valley News,
Through the kindness of a
dear friend, / received your
paper OF date May %. AS it was
from our old home and county.
and ye editors once our good
nelghbors, we appreciated your
paper very much. Much good
news and some sad, which
accompanies every paper, was
printed in it. have read and
leread most everything in your
paper. hut the article that
touched me most was "a
Mothers Plea. Please let me
endorse it through your columns,
for the many mothers sake as
we'll IS my conscience. OH how
many poor broken-hearted
mothers in the land praying and
pleading with the law makers of
our country to do away with
such wickedness! There are
other crimes equally as low, but
you can trace them back to the
origin of most of the misdoings,
and whisky is the foundation for
most Of them.
| plead with the mother close
these dens of vice, and give the
poor boy a chance for life here
ard hereafter. The life here
after is more important than the
present life. What joys await
the Christian, on and on through
eternity, and why a nation or
law will tolerate such wicked d.
ness / can't understand when it
has the the power to turn it
down. | have been very ig-
norant, with thousands Of others
on the law. | have been told,
and made believe that our fore
fathers, who fought for liberty
and drew up the laws of our
constitution made these laws and
we had to abide by them. l
have wondered many times why
such great and good men could
do things in that way. | am
glad the curtain has lifted, and
| have learned to blame the
right ones, those men who have
been seeking honor for greed
and gain, and yet, we as a |
people will submit to it for party |
sake. l don't know that l ever
read a stronger plea for mothers,
yet how many will pass it by, !
unnoticed. 1t covers most all the
ground.
While there has never been a !
lava national against
tobacco, | am glad so many of |
our good women are fighting it.
Fight on dear sisters. If the
mothers of the past had fought
1t and turned it down, we would |
have fewer imbeciles in our
land. We can't say too much, or
do too much in the right way,
against evil. Why do we have |
to wait so long? Why not those
who are at the head of our
government, say these things
cannot exist, and they will not |
exist? Gods word is truth, and
he said as long as the wicked |
rule the people mourn. Who
could be greater mourner than
the mother who pleads for her
boy! Mothers Friend.

m iddi burys Important Situation

Middlebury's situation, so near the
west center of the state, together with
her position as the county seat of Ad-
Olson county brings to her many ad-
vantages not usually enjoyed by towns
of her size. A sense of civic loyalty
should make US appreciate what we
have and will have which other less
favored towns are denied. Middebury
has been chosen this year for one center
of great nationwide movement of
vital Importance to the well being of the
town. All wide-awake citizens are in
terested in it, all churches, regardless
of their denomination, people of all
creeds and of no creed will be affected
by it, directly or indirectly. 1t is the
great Union Missionary campaign to be
held here October 80 and 81. A big
get-together banquet will be served in
the vestry of the Congregational church
on Thursday evening, October 80. The
ladies of all the churches in the village
are asked to cooperate in serving this
banquet. There will be visitors present
from all points of the county. The
program will appear later.
