tuary on this occasion and specially
enjoin on you to come not empty
handed. The time has come when an
oral expression of appreciation back

far better evidence of ones faith and
sincerely than otherwise.

Contractors Beadles & Morrison
Brothers are making very good
heaiway with the construction'of
the Humphreys Highway-having
completed that portion OF the
th0roughfare from The corporation
line to PeIucia Creek. Next week
they will begin building the road
from PeIucia Greek 10 the Carroll
County line, and will PISA same
to rapid completion. These gen.
lIcmen have crews Of men at work
grading the routes between Green
wood and Shel!mOund and ltta
Bena, and will begin construction
work N those directions within a
short time. Messrs. BeadIes &
Morrison Brothers are most ex-
ceIIenl gentlemen and are doing
flrst-cIaSs work for our county.
When completed, the Hum
Highway, covering about
Il miles, will be decidedly the

ALTOGETHER BETTER.

The Harrisburg Tribune truthfully
remarks that ''any man sober Ia far
better than that same man drunk, or
than that anne man even partly drunk
than that same man with only one
dram in him. There is absolutely moth.
ing to be gained by drinking, whether
much or little. 1t does not add strength
Of body or Of mind. Il does not make
a man a better business man, . better
workman, Or a better anything. Then
why drink 1t at all? II Is worse than a
useless waste. It Is worse than some
other forms Of wrong doing, be.
cause of ones relation to ones fellow.
men. 1t heats the passions, blunts the
feelings, destroys the finer sensibilities,
hurts the moral sense, 1t is no friend
Of man at any time or anywhere.
Every young ma should make up his
mind upon this question. He should
fight 1t OUT till he has reached Al ire
vocable decision, and that Is that he
will let it severely alone. He will
never have cause to regret this decision,
On the other hand, he viii look back
through the years and b. glad that
be came to such decision.

BUSINESS WOELD DISHONESTY.

A man of wide experience In metro.
poIitan life was talking recently about
the recent revelations of crooked
finance in railroad and other corpora.
ton affairs. 1t seemed to him that one.
half Of the business men he knew were
dishonest, He thought half of the
other half would not do anything posi-
lively crooked. but would wink at it if
they saw 1t going through in a way to
profit them. If this is a fair judgment
it Ia one of q number of reasons why
the stock market ticker is almost held
down by cobwebs.
The development of great corpora.
tons has created certain types Of dis.
honesty. Just as the reporter of q
metropolitan yellow journal is protected
by the i~mpersonaIity of the big ma
chine he works for. 50 the managers of
big corporations are Il long way from
the stockholders. They feel inacces.
sible. But when they put over a
wrong deal, someone olways knows.
1t may become for the advantage of
that someone to give up his informa-
ton.
In the smaller cities and country
towns business men seem to be pretty
honest. 1t pays them to be so, as the
bad bargain co,nes back quicker than
the cat. The discouraging side of bust
ness life is the freedom with which
many people will lie outright and look
you in the eve when they do it. People
overlook a lie too tolerantly.
The trouble with the liars and cheats
is that they underestimate peoples
intelligence. Nine-tenths of the de-
ceptions are so obvious as to be laugh
able. People who try to get away
with these shallow tricks should be
outlawed.
The public is bewildered by compli-
Gated transactions Of big corporations
and jugglery of millions. Financiers
will find from nov on that the simpler
the business form is, the easier the
stock will sell. A labyrinth of holding
companies and paper organizations
looks as if some one was trying to
elude something.
