WANTE D-A SOCRATES

What every small American town
and village needs most Is a Socrates
who by systematic questioning will
set the people to thinking, sting con-
seriousness and conscience into action,
and persuade them to adopt new bus
mess ways. 1t Is not the morals of
the country town and village people
that need awakening (for their NOR
ais without exception are equal or
superior to those of city people, but
the prosperity and permaHence Of the
town are threatened by inertia, self
interest and lack of home pride.
So Socrates Is needed, not to go
about as the great Greek did, poor,
shabby and barefoot, stopping indis-
crimately In the street and public
places to expound his wisdom, but q
Socrates up-to-date--a man who can
talk the subject of Community Devel.
opment and put his thoughts in a
masterful way as Socrates did.
Community Development Is the
most important work for the country
towns and villages today, and an ex
ponent OF the subject Is needed In
every town--one who can arouse the
business men to action and defense
IN fighting the mail order and kin
dred evils In much the same manner
as the evangelist arouses the
churches to attack moral wrong.
There must be an awakening among
the business men of the country town
and Socrates Is needed to bring It
about.-Cahwell Tribune.

LIVE AND LET LIVE

What will the downward revisers
of the tariff do when they come to
the agricultural schedule? Will they
lower the cost of living by cutting
the prices that the farmer gets for
his produce? While the consumer Ia
being cheered by the tariff reduc-
ton which he expects, here are some
big facts from the Census Bureau
which show who gets the money.
In ten years the planted acreage OF
this country increased 10 per cent,
and the increase in quantity was also
farm products on the farm increased
SO per cent. An extra profit Of near
ly two billions of dollars went into
the farmers pockets as result OF
increase in price alone-and we paid
10 per cent. But the total value OF
1t through the grocery man and loud
ly denounced the tariff and the
trusts.
The farmer to-day gets 80 cents for
his wheat instead of 60 cents; he
gets half as much again for his corn,
and 80 per cent. more for his pota-
toes than he did 10 years ago. A
hog ON the farm is worth twice as
much now as 1t was then. Every
body knows that poultry, eggs, milk
and butter are revenue producers and
not merely by-products OF the farm.
And the farmer drives to town IN a
six-cylinder car instead of a rickety
buggy; he has a bank deposit in
stead of chattel mortgage. But
what patriot will lift up his voice and
demand liberation from the greed OF
the agriculturist?
The plantation price of cotton has
practically doubled these ten years.
That is one of the reasons for the
return of prosperity in the South. A
pound of wool sells for much more
than 1t did at the end of the last de-
cade. BY what process Of reason
ing can the consumer expect the
price of clothing to remain station
airy when both raw materials and the
labor have advanced?
If organized capital has gathered
unto itself profits as the result of
greatly improved business methods, it
is no more deserving of punishment
than the farming class which has pros
pered amazingly at the consumers
expense.
But where Is the brave statesman
who will come to the footlights and
demand that the farmer be forced
to take less for his products in order
that the nation may have cheaper
food and clothing?
Shall We be impartial and Smash"
the farmer also?
Smash nothing! Live and let live.

A LUCRATIVE BUSINESS

The president of Sears, Roebuck &
Co., the great mall order house, un-
der oath last Thursday stated that
the net profits of his company for
last year was $17OOO,OOO. How much
of this did you contribute? He also
testified under oath that 81 per week
is sufficient wage to pay any girl who
lives at home, and further, that i'm
morality Is not furthered by starva-
ton wage and poverty. Our wives

YELLOW JOURNALS AND lNDlVlD-

Finding fault with the government
in all its branches Is popular
pastime with great many publica
tons, and individuals as we'll To
stir up discomfort is easy. This ap-
peals to the ne 'ere-do-well. One oil
the leading magazines places the
blame rightly in a recent issue as
follows:
The assassination of King George
of Greece Is another warning that 1t
Is time the world sat up and took
notice of the unrest and unreason ev-
erywhere present. 1t was a Greek of
feeble intellect who shot King George
and 1t Is this class of half-sound
minds who are particularly inflamed
against rulers and all governments.
Since 1901 there have been assas-
sinations Of IL monarchs and chief
executives of republics. Three Of
this number have been presidents of
the United States. The spirit Of law
lessnees Is ON the increase as is
shown by the fact that IL Of the II
assassinations have occurred since
1894. They teach two lessons, one
the very obvious lesson that rulers
and chief magistrates should be pro-
perly safeguarded. The other lesson,
which strikes directly at the source
OF the trouble, Is that the inflamma-
tory utterances Of the press should
be bridled. 1t should not be forgot
ten In this connection that the assas-
sin Of President Mckinley got his in
SEPARATION from reading the yellow
journals.
But how shall we bride an unscrup
ulous press? Certainly not by gov
eminent censorship. But the bust
ness man who advertises and the peo
Pile who read the yellow papers have
In their hands power quite as ef-
fectiye as governmental board Of
censors. Let the business man who
believes In the reign Of law and or
der keep his advertising out of pap
ers whose chief purpose is to in
flame the passions Of the weak against
all authority. Let the public which
believes in the protection of char
acter and the safeguarding of human
lives refuse to buy or read the yell
low journals. This type of paper has
been developed because it has prov
en- profitable. Let the profits shrink
and they will learn the ways Of de-
cency once more.
The people have the key of the
situation in their hands. Let the
people rule.

be written on a single sheet of paper,
the various pages should be so at
tached that they cannot be separat-
ed without detection. The pages are
usually stapled or pasted together at
the top and cord is run through
them, tied and sealed. 1t is wise for
the maker of the will, the testator
as he is called, to initial each page
in such cases.
Further, the will must be signed by
the maker and Witnessed in the man
ner required by the statutes of the
state in which it is made. Nevada
is the only state which requires al
seal. The usual and proper method
of signing Is for the maker to write
his name in full at the bottom of
the will. Where the maker cannot
| write, his mark" is sufficient
Wills have been held valid when sign
ed with initials, or parts of the
| name, or by a stamp, but such meth
DDS are dangerous. If a person is
| or any reason incapable of writing
he may authorize another to sign
his name for him.
Not only must will be signed,
but it must also be witnessed, and
that in the strictest form. Some
states require but two witnesses;
others three, but it is always best
to have three witnesses. AS was
pointed out in the case Of Samuel
Hendrix, the witnesses must be per-
sons who have no interest in the
will, and it must be seen to that
neither they nor their near relatives
are to receive anything under the
will.
The manner in which a careful at
torney completes the necessary for
malities, having written the will itself
and secured the witnesses is some
what as follows: All the persons
maker and witnesses-must be in the
same room and all in sight of each
other. The maker reclares the will
to be his and writes his signature,
with all the witnesses watching him.
Then each of the witnesses in turn
signs his name, the entire party still
remaining together. While will is
usually dated, this is not necessary.
No registration is required. The orig
inal will is filed in safe place, u.s.
ually by the maker among his papers,
and a copy put in another place.
The copy is not a will, but is useful
in proving the contents of the will
if the instrument should be destroy
ed or altered.
Having made will and wishing to
change it, the maker has two gen
eral courses open. He may write
another will, in which he expressly
revokes the earlier one, or pen re-
vocation, either of which instruments
must be signed and witnessed as a
will. Or he may take the will and
by tearing it up, burning it, or draw
ing lines through it, with the inten-
ton of revoking it, cause it to lose
all effect as will. In Iowa this act
must be done in the presence OF wit
nesses and in all cases it is best to
do so.
On the death of the maker, those
interested in the will usually secure
the services of an attorney in hay
ing it probated and the estate ad- |
ministered. OF course, the person
named in the will as executor, may
himself place it before the probate,
or similar court, but he usually finds
it simpler to have a lawyer arrange
matters. II no executor has been
named by the maker in his will, an
administrator Is appointed by the
court 1t is the duty of executor or /
administrator to care for the de-

WILLS: sRsAkAsLE AND uNsREAkAsLE

some special legal disability, may
make valid and binding will. In
the majority of the states the full
age of twenty-one years is required
OF both sexes before the power to
make will Is granted.
Married women were formerly de-
MED the right to will their property,
but modern statutes quite generally
give them that privilege OF course,
an insane person. lacking the requir-
ed mental qualifications, cannot make
a win, nor can infants under age, in
most states.
The first great requisite of a will
is that is shall be in writing. This
does not mean that it need be writ
ten In long-hand, though that Is the
most desirable Of all ways when the
maker is preparing his own will.
Typewriter wills and printed Wills,
with the blanks filled In, are common
and wills have been held valid when
prepared in many unusual ways on
strange substitutes for paper or parcl
ment. The prudent attorney, in pre-
pairing will, always sees to it that
the entire instrument Is fastened to-
gether. Thus If the will consists Of
several typewriter or printed sheets,
the last OF which alone is signed, an
other typewriter page might be sub
stituted for an unsigned one and the
whole character Of the instrument al
