OBITUARY

On the morning of June the 17th 1914, the death angel entered the home of MT and Mrs. R. C. Harris and claimed their only daughter, Mary Jewel.
 Little Jewel was just years, 4 months and 16 days old. Although her stay on earth was short, we had learned to love her and it is so sad to part with loved ones. But we know she is sweetly resting. For Jesus has said Suffer little children to come unto me and forbid them not for of such is the Kingdom of Heaven" And again, Except ye be converted and become as a little child ye shall not enter into the Kingdom of Heaven" !"
 Little Jewel was a sweet child and loved by all who knew her. She was sick just days and all that loving hands could do was done, but she had heard the call to come up higher and her little spirit taken it's flight back to the God who gave it, there to wait the Resurrection Morn.
 Will say to the bereaved ones to weep not as those who have no hope but to try to live so as to meet little Jewel in Heaven where there will be no more sad good-byes.
 A large audience of sorrowing rel atives and friends assembled at the grave to pay the last respect to little Jewel. Bro. Atwood spoke words of comfort to the bereft.
 Precious Jewel-lovely treasure. Thou are safe from all alarms. Some sweet day we'll see our darling, We shall clasp her in our arms. Weep not dear papa and mama for me For I am waiting in glory for thee.

DIRECTIONS FOR SHIPPING MILK TO MARKET IN ORDER TO
 REDUCE BACTERIA

With the approach of hot weather the department is warning dairymen again not to hold their milk before shipping it to market. A practice prevalent in some places is to take the morning milk, combine it with the afternoon milk of the same day and ship this combination early the follow ing morning. This means that the morning milk is kept through the heat of the day. When it reaches the consumer, 24 hours or more old, the meteorological count is high. This explains, the department experts say, why milk from dairies in which all the conditions appear to be excellent is frequently found to be bacterioo- gically bad
 The remedy recommended by the de- partment is to hold the afternoon milk properly cooled, through the cooler hours of the night, and ship it the next morning with the morning milk, also properly cooled, without mixing the two. It is of course essential to this plan that the train schedules be adapted to it, but it is felt that when the importance of the change is fully recognized this difficulty will be over come. Such procedue in cooling and handling would materially reduce the possibility of sour milk reaching the markets.
 Shippers are also urged by the de- partment to see that the milk is thoroughly cooled as an important step in keeping its meteorological count low.

SECOND CHAPTER OF
 STORY HAS APPEARED

Recently there appeared in an issue of the Saturday Evening Post, an ar ticle by a very brilliant writer on United States Senator James P. Clarke. There was no sparing the rod and spelling the child in the article, and while giving the senior Senator credit for being man of great ability it also singed the hair little as it went once over.
 Now comes the second chapter of the story. It is written by William F. Kirby, who is now quite busy as an Associate Justice of the Arkansas Su- preme Court, and who recently figured in contest which may be recalled by some of the older citizens of the state. Judge Kirby has written this lette' to the editor of the "Who is Who" col umn of the Saturday Evening Post. He states that he indorses every word in the article, and while the assertions contained therein would indicate the writer understood Senator Clarke, that he could have furnished some more, and intensely interesting mater for the article if he had been consult ed. Judge Kirby asks the editor to keep him in mind, and if at any fut 1T ], time he desires to again refer to Sem ator Clarke, to drop line and he will supply a volume, with sidelights ga- lore, gleaned from close political touch with Senator Clarke.
 The Saturday Evening Post article was indeed amusing, particularly b the close friends of Senator Clarke, who saw the great compliment paid to him, even against the will of the writ CT, who was very evidently prejudiced against him.

TO STUDY ROAD CONDITIONS IN
 la8 COUNTIES

Detailed studies of local road build ing systems in 100 counties are now being carried by the department in CO., operation with the State highway de parments and local road authorities.
 The purpose of this study is to dis cover the points Of excellence and de- fects in existing local methods of building and maintaining roads which will aid the State authorities to put local road management on a systema- tized basis. The cooperating State authorities have been asked to desig- nate counties that present typical and exceptional features as 10 topography character of road materials, methods of construction and maintenance, ad- ministrative organization, methods of road financing, and traffic conditions. From these lists 100 counties will be selected, and in these counties the Di- vision of Road Economics will make intensive studies.
 This investigation Is prompted by the fact that there is at present very little knowledge as to the most effec- tive and economical methods by which county can develop its roads. At present the methods of financing local road improvements vary from calling on farmers for certain number of days labor in lieu of road tax, or the use of county prisoners in road con- struction, to bond issues or mainten- ance of roads from dramshop license funds.
 The department will study all of these systems with the view of de- termining what system or combination of systems works best in actual prac- tice.
 There IS, moreover, at present no standard of keeping accounts for road building and maintenance, and as a result, while some counties know to a penny the purpose for which money was spent, others have no definite check or reporting system. Among various counties with the same condi- tions cost for excavation or other la Dor is anything but uniform, and many counties, because of the ab- sence of definite knowledge, fail to use local and cheap materials, and construct roads which are unneces- sarily expensive for their purpose, or which will wear out before the bond issues are redeemed The investiga- Ption will include careful study of the use of convict labor in road construc- tion.
 In connection with the scientific study the departments highway en- gineers will advise freely with local officials as to improvements, and thus give each county visited the advantage of direct cooperation, engineering su- pervision, and assistance.
 These investigations, it is believed will yield important economic data bearing especially on the benefits and burdens of road improvement and showing the extent to which financial outlay under given typical conditions is justiiable.
 The heads of State Highway depart ments are manifesting great interest and are cooperating cordially in this work. These data when obtained will be published and thus made accessible to all county and State road officials.

A Story of President Wilson

President Wilson has a fund of good stories. One that he tells is of little boy whom he encountered at Staunton. Va, the presidents birth place. Mir. Wilson was speaking to a good sized crowd from the steps of the Baldwin seminary for girls, when he discovered little 7-year old lad pushing and showing his way through the crowd. The boy finally landed in front of MT. Wilson, and shouted ex- citedly:
 Where is it? Where ! it?"
 MT. Wilson stopped his speech, and, with a broad smilc, eaid good naturedly:
 "Well, my boy, l guess Pm it."
 "Oh, pshaw," responded the youngster, with a look of disgust "why I thought it was dog fight" New York Tribune

A Mystery.

My grandsire is husky chap; his age
is eighty-five.
He has a CHEEKY smile and thinks it's
good to be alive.
He does not claim perfection. When
the New Year comes again
same as other men.
He seemed to start life's journey on
unfavorable terms.
His family did not know thing
about these wicked germs.
They let him travel barefoot and he
ate green fruit by stealth.
I very often wonder how my grand
sire kept his health.
He ate his bread and marmalade and
didn't care a straw
About the labels which are recon-
mended by the law.
And when a cut or bruise unto his
careless lot befell.
He tied rag around it and then left
it to get well.
He tried to love his neighbor and he
wasn't wild for pelf.
He did the best he could and then
forgot about himself
He faced the outdoor life without the
luxuries of wealth
grandsire kept his health!

Autumn Walking.

Whether one goes with group. as
with the "Wanderlusters" who have
lately been exploring all parts of this
region, or alone for the sake of un-
controlled freedom of movement. there
is no more delightful experience at this
season of the year than a country
walk, especially under no time pressure
to cause haste. The air is Of delight
full quality now, with an invigorating
quality that carries the first hint OF
the coming of fall. The trees have just
begun to turn to the rich glow of
autumn. and refresh the eye with their
full foliage. The fields are yellowed
with the richness of perfected growths
The summers work is drawing to a
close, and an air of leisure spreads
throughout the country that is delight
full to contemplate.
To walk at such a time, to take no
note Of time. to penetrate into places
where the path leads to mystery. to
come Unexpectedly upon habitations or
into wilderness. this Is to find the true
pleasure of the country. There is charm
everywhere, even when the surround

little space by the hand Of man. For

Instructive Aerial Loops.

Yesterdays exhibition of high and
fancy flying in this city by Lincoln
Beachey gave Washington a clear idea
of the latest development of aviation
inaugurated by the Frenchman Pegoud
some months ago and since practiced
by daring airmen- in various countries.
Turning loops in the air is not particu-
larly practical maneuver, but it un-
questionably illustrates the advance
which has been made during the past
few years in the control of the heavier
than air machine and serves effectively
20 demonstrate that this mode of avia-
ton is susceptible of far more certain
stability than was previously believed
possible.
Washington will long remember the
thrill 1t experienced when 1t saw a
man in a biplane deliberately turn a
somersault in the air. a couple of thou
sand feet above the earth, looping
around the statue of Freedom on the
Capitol with as much ease as though
he Were running a bicycle around a
cinder track. But the greatest sensa-
ton of all was reserved for the climax
of the days exhibition, when from a
height of about $500 feet the aviator
turned earthward. and. after pointing
almost vertically, described a loop and

evitable. when, at the exact moment

brought his machine right side up and

the appointed spot.

the greatest skill to do such things.
Long ago. when aviation was in its
first stages, The Star contended that
the operator would always be ready to
handle the machine, when once the ma
chine was perfected. 1t was a me-
chanical matter, not a human. Now
the machine has come, with a degree OF
perfection that was secuted as an i'm
possibility half a dozen years ago. and
the man has at all stages been a little
ahead of 1t in his ability to handle it.
The many accidents that have occurred
have been due in part to the reckless
ness of operators and in perhaps larger
part to the imperfections Of the ap-
paratus. Not all of them have con-
tributed instructively to the evolution
of the apparatus, but unquestionably
much has been gained through these
sacrifices.
Yesterdays exhibition was given for
a. specific purpose. which 1t is to be
the spectacular demonstration given of
gained. Congress should read refiec-

Villas Ultimatum.
From the New York Times.

from the NeW 1ork lintS.
Villa has sent his ultimatum to Car
rama, as Austria sent hers to Se.vla,
and, as it seems, with the same intent.
Carranza, it is understood. has agreed
to the abolition of the vice presidency
and has partly agreed to Villas de-
mand that no leader of revolution
shall be a candidate for the presidency
until six months after he has resigned
his military command. But Villa de-
mands the elimination of Carranza, and
Carranza refuses to be eliminated.
Therefore, there is another civil war in
Mexico. with the prospect that the late
ly defeated adherents of Huerta may
support Villa. That is the old Mexican
story.
1t is not within the power or the
right of Americans to fix the blame.
least of all is it within the right of any
American to charge it against Presi-
dent Wilson, whose management of our
relations in Mexico is not. in any way,
responsible for the failure of Carranza
to pacify the sister republic. That
Villa was the most conspicuous figure
in the battles of the constitutionalists
nobody can deny.

Seeking Peace in Mexico.

Efforts now making to effect an
agreement between Villa and Carranza
in Mexico are of the utmost import
ance, and the hope of all well-wishers
of the southern republic is that they
may be successful. Both Villa and
Carranza express willingness to
abandon political aspirations. each
making the condition that the other
withdraw. If these proffers are made
in good faith there should be no seri-
Gus difficulty in effecting an arrange
ment whereby the presidential elec-
ton may proceed peacefully, without
the starting of another revolution.
The events of the next few days will
determine whether Mexico Is to pro-
ceed along the line of constructive re-
organization or plunge into further
strife. with a lamentable result not
merely in the loss of life but in shak-
ing the confidence of the people of this
country in the capacity of the Mexican
people to maintain themselves on the
basis of representative government.
