HOW LONG WILL THE WAR LAST!

How long the European war will last is a fruitful field for specula- ton.
 Lord Kitchener says it will last two years, at feast. Kitchener figures it will last until the British win. He advises England to be pro. pared for such a long period of national travail.
 Reports from Berlin indicate that the Germans, too, are prepared and expect a long war. One report had t that they are ready for a threa year conflict, and that they expect both Russia and France to be so fatigued by that time that the main fighting will be between England and Germany.
 Kitchener says England should put at least 2,O00,O00 men in the field.
 Germany reports that it has 1,50o.-. GOO already waiting to go to the front and has 6,0o0,0o0 young men from IS to 21 years being drilled.
 Study these figures and glimpse the terribleness of it all.
 Think what huge amount of exc. cution a million men can do in "a year. Then mul iply it according l..
 And the cost. Conservative esti- mates have it that every man in tho field costs the warning powers froal two to three dollars day.
 Who is going to pay for it al1?
 Financiers tell us that both kitch- ener and the Germans are wrong, arl that the war cannot last as long as they estimate. They say goodiy uortion of the available gold in tae world would be used up, and that nl nation can fight when it is bankrupt
 These financiers point to servil saying it already is exhausted and is only putting up a weak defense. U also isfat its last tether financial.
 S%2A 1y.
 The brave Belgians already are without their country; are homeless thousands reported starving, then cities ruined and the nation and pco- pie without money.
 The truth is, no one can tell now long the war will last. The most powerful of the nations are so i'm bued with the< passion of war th*' they will fight until no'hing-men money or arms-is left.
 Thus the hands on the clock ol civilization are turned back

\ Little z

Have you a little question mark A running round the house, Who wants to know why it gets dark, And why cats chase 'a mouse? And why the leaves fall off the trees, And how get back again; And what it is that makes you sneezc, And why prayers end "amen?" And where the sun goes when it sets, And how the whistle blows, And where his little brother gets His fingers and his toes? And why an apple has a core, And where the shadows live, And two and two always make four, and COWS have milk to give? And what is light, And what is dirt,
 And what is right, And why bumps hurt, And who is God, And why does He Take so much care Of you and me? M It's when the little question mark Begins to reach and grow One just begins to understand How much one ought to know.

FITZPATRICK CASE TO
BE TRIED IN JANUARY

The Court of Appeals on
Thursday decided the case of w.
T. Fitzpatrick, VS.. Circuit Judge
Young, in favor Of Young and de-
MED the writ of prohibition to
prevent Judge Young from trying
the case. The case is one in which
Mr.. Fitzpatrick is trying to re-
gain possession OF his vast estate
in this county which was taken
out of his hands some years ago
on account of his health, which
he claims has been recov-
cred with the result that
he now wants control of
his affairs. In the Montgom-
cry County Court the case was dc.
cided in his favor, but an appeal
was taken to Circuit Court and
the case tried there, where Fitzr
patrick lost. His attorneys,
Messrs. Kinsolving and Dundon,
filed exceptions to Judge Young
trying the case, claiming that
there was no appea, from the ver-
1ict of the lower Court, which
gave him his property back, but
the Appellate Court decided eth
erwise and the case will have to
be tried over at the next January
term. There is involved in the
suit property valued at over
$Ioo, 900. A. L. Upton is Mr.,
Fitzpatrick's trustee.

MOVING PICTURE
MACHINES
Being Manufactured by Maggard'
Bradley Company in City of
Morehead.

Few people would believe that
situated in the little city of More
head, Rowan county is located a
man ufacturing establishment that
is sending its product all over
the entire world, but such is the
cae. The Maggard-Bradley Co.,
is located there and their hand
some stone structure is the home
of one of, the finest if not the
finest moving picture machines
on the market, the Cosmograph.
This machine was invented by a
Morehead man, hardly more than
a boy in years and has been de-
clared by competent judges to be
wonderful machine. The COM
pany employees fifteen skilled
mechanics besides many helpers
and laborers. Their plant con-
tains the finest machinery OBJ
tainable for their purpose. The
plant now has a capacity of FIVE
machines per day but expect to
shortly increase that to fifteen
machines.
The machine complete in it's
case weighs but ~ pounds and
can be attached to any electric
light socket.
The machine has been on the
market but a few months but is
meeting with tremendous success.
Mr.. Sam Bradley, the well known
lumber man and fnancier of
Rowan county is big stock hold
er in the company and is very en-
thusiastic over its prospects.
An establishment of this char
acter means much to a city and
Morehead should be proud of this
company and very grateful to Mr..
Bradley for keeping it in More
head rather than moving the COM
pany to larger city.
