OPEN ART EXHIBIT
TO GET MEMBERS
Association Officers Ask
Public to Support Society
Boosting Richmond.

With the reception at the art gal
lery in the high school building tomor-
row evening at o'clock the first Of
the series of art exhibits for the win
ter will begin. This collection of pic
lures is the American artists exhibit
prepared by Mrs. M. F. Johnston. Be-
cause of the unusually early opening Of
the gallery this year. Mrs. aul Com
stock, president of the Art association,
said the society's solicitors had not
had an opportunity to call on old mem
bers to get their membership, but ar
engagements had been made to dispose
of membership cards at the door. She
made a plea for the public to attend
the reception and support the associa-
ton by becoming members. The So
ciety, she said, is dependent on the
public for it's existence. She said it
ought to be strengthened, being one of
the best advertisements Richmond has.
Everywhere the city is known as an
art center because of the Art associa-
tons work.

Valuable Discovery in
Complexion Beautifier

Because of it's peculiar power of alb
sOrptiOn, also because it serves every
emOllient purpose, ordinary mercolized
wax is perhaps the most valuable COM
pleXion beautifier discovered within
recent years. If one uses this she
needs no toilet cream Some use pow
der afterward, but this is not neces-
sary. This rule for applying mercol-
lied wax has been found very satisfac-
tory: Wash the face with warm water,
drying lightly. Before thoroughly dry,
anOint face and neck with the wax,
but don't rub it in. The favorite way
is to use before retiring, allowing it to
remain on all night and washing it off
in the morning with warm water. All
druggists have this way in original
Cne-ounce packages.
For the removal of a wrinkled or
tlabby condition there's nothing bet
ter than to battle the face in a solu-
ton made by dissolving l ounce pow
dered saxolite in p pint witch hazel
Beneficial results are quickly notice
able.

KENWORTHY GIVES
REVIEW Of WORK
Pastor of East Main Street
Friends Takes Up State
Church Position.

Progress of the East Main street
church during his five years as pastor
was reviewed by Rev. Truman Ken
worthy at his farewell service yester-
day morning. The Rev. Mr.. Ken
worthy said 261 persons had united
with the congregation and the mem
bership had been increased from IS to
IT'S.
The Rev. Mr.. Kenworthy has offic-
lated at SO funerals and at % we'd
dings. During his pastorate the meet
ing house was remodeled. Following
the pastors review of his work, Tim
othy Nicholson, representing the con-
gregation expressed regret that the
pastor would not be with them. He
spoke of the high regard the members
have had for the Rev. Mr.. Kenworthy
and said the call which was extended
to him for another year was unani
nous.
Although leaving the pastorate to
be become state superintendent of
ministry and oversight, the Rev Mr.
kenworthy and his family will make
their home in Richmond. The Rev.
Milo Hinkle, of Lynn, who succeeds
the Rev. Mr.. kenworthy has already
moved to Richmond and will take
charge of the services after next Sun

Turkish empire would cease to exist
and would be divided.
Sweden probably is pro-German in
this war as she fears and hates Rus
STA and would like to get back Fin
land, which Russia once took from
her. But Norway and Denmark, which
are closely allied, fear the Germans
more than they do the Russians, and
so Sweden is checked as far as giving
aid to Germany is concerned.
efforts for mediation at this time
probably will be fruitless. Both sides
feel that the war must be fought to a
decisive conclusion; that one side or
the other must be conquered. Peace
before that stage, they feel, would only
be an armistice, a putting off of the
decisive conflict
Austria Gets Blame.
austria, generally, is blamed for
the outbreak of the war. Her demands
on Servia after the assassination of>ne
Archduke Franz Ferdinand were such
that no self-respecting nation could
accede to them. And after Austria de-
clared war on Servia no power on
earth could keep Russia out of the
conflict.
Il am sure Russia did not want war
at this time. The wife of a very high
Russian official who was stopping at
the same hotel where / was in Nau-
helm told me the car was opposed to
war at this time, and she was very
much shocked and surprised when war
was actually declared. l understand
some of the Russian grand dukes were
in favor of war, but that the car was
not. Public opinion forced the car
to come to the aid of the Servians, a
people related by ties of blood and
history with the Russian people.
"Of course, Germany might have
brought such pressure to bear on
Austria that the latter country would
have been forced to recede from her
very arbitrary position regarding Ser
via. But Germany, knowing Italy was
weakened in her support of the Tri-
pie Alliance, since the Italian victories
over Turkey and the acquisition of
Tripoli, probably felt that she could
not afford to humiliate the one re-
naming ally she was sure of.
Germany Strong Today.
Besides, Germany knew that
France and Russian were carrying on
gigantic army preparations that
would require three years longer to
complete, and that her position was
relatively much stronger today than 1t
would be at the end Of that time.
MY personal experience" went on

England, as published in my letters

throne, our institutions must fail,
society shall be annihilated, and the
stars and stripes shall cease to wave
on account of having nothing over
which to wave.
But there is something strikingly in
consistent in this sophestry of in
dividual rights, coming as it does in
company with the advocacy of regu-
lation. Do our personal liberty friends
not know that just as soon as you
begin to regulate you begin to curtail
somebody's individual rights?
Anti-Treating Good.
A part of the reforms suggested is
an anti-treating regulation. This is
a commendable thing, but exceedingly
difficult to carry out. But in the
event of it's becoming effective what
becomes of the long established right
of one individuals showing his regard
for another by treating him to glass
of beer? 1t has been sacrificed in the
interests of the man.
Apparently the right Of personal
liberty has it's limitations with some
of it's ardent advocates. 1t is sacred
only in providing a convenient place
to slake an imported thirst-made in
Germany-fOr those who were to the
lager born.
The German Alliance is agitating
from it's headquarters in Pennsylvania

on the nation the liquor business as a

something here coming also from
Pennsylvania that does indeed repre-
sent another side. 1t does not come
under name so high-sounding as the
German Alliance. but it ought to be
received as just as good authority, be-
cause it really gives us inside informal
ton. 1t is a petition to the General
Assembly of the state of Pennsylvania
asking for the enactment Of a state
wide prohibition law, signed last
fourth of July by 1908 of the 1,478 in
mates of the Eastern State Peniten-
tiary of Pennsylvania. This petition
was circulated and signed voluntarily,

Government Studies Show How the
Agricultural Output Of County
Denends Upon its Hinhroads.
Washington. D. c. - That on I'M
proved road will increase vastly the
productiveness OF the area through
which It runs has now been satisfac-
torily demonstrated by studies con-
ducted by TIE United States denart-
ment OF agriculture in Virginia. Con-
ditions in Spotsvlvania county were
investigated with particular care and
the results have proved surnrising. In
1909 the county voted 800 900 to i'm
prove 40 miles Of roads. Two years
after the completion Of this work the
railroad took awav in II months from
Fredericksburg, the county seat, H.
900 tons of agricultural and forest
PRODUCTS hauled over the highways to
that town. Before the Improvement
Of the roads this total was only $4,000
tons annually: in other words the
quantity Of the county's produce had
risen more than 45 per cent. Still
more interesting. however. IS the In
crease shown in the quantity OF the
dairy products. In 1909 these amount
ed to 114S15 mounds. in 1911 to 27a.-
O2s pounds. an increase OF practically
14o per cent in two years. In the
sane tir,e shipments OF wheat had
Increased 50 rer cent. tobacco 81 per
cent. and lumber and other forest
products 48 per cent.
In addition to this increase In guam
titv the cost Of hauling each ton OF
produce was materially reduced. In
other words the farmers not only pro-
duce more but produce more cheaply
for the cost OF transportation to mar
ket Is of course an important factor
in the cost OF production. From this
point Of view It IS estimated that the
100000 spent in improving the roads
in Spotsylvania county saved the far
mers of that county $4,000 a year.
In the past two years the traffic
studies Of the Federal experts show
that approximately an average OF 65'
ono tons of OUTGOING products were
hauled over the improved roads in the
county an averare distance Of 8 miles
or a total Of 520.00n "ton-miles." Be
fore the roads were improved 1t was
estimated that the average cost o.
hauling was 20 cents a "ton-m1le"
after the improvement this fell to 1,
! cents a "ton-mile," or a saving OF
cents. A saving Of cents per mill
on $4,000 "tcn-miles" is $4,000
wear. The county's. investment o.
500, 900 Ia other words returns DIV
idend Of 40 per cent annually.
