If there is not soI1e divine philosophy
in what follows, then we are at loss
to even grasp shadow Of the alleged
wisdom OF al all wise being. lake for
example the instinct Of animals. Is it
not remarkably wonderful? What ap-
plies to little chicks is applicable to all.
No sooner than Matched, they begin to
eat. When warned Of danger they hide
and only come from the hiding when
told by the mother. When caught or
about to be caught they cry for help
do not human beings call for help in
danger also. The true philosophy of
this is that their maker endowed them
with this caution and of course tho
provision means in need supreme aid.
When free and happy they play-the
Cat, DOG, hog. in short everything does
that as GO children. But, note how
easily and readily the little chicks he
com, educated. They know the cluck
of their mother. She tells them what
and what not to eat. and that lesson
lasts for all time When old enough
they know how 10 scratch for u living,
and comes the weaving time It's doue
and chicks and mother separate.
If the divine so made them to do
what we lave claimed, how much more
does he intend that parents should do
likewise, except with more persistence

GERMAN ARMY PLAN
OUTLINED IN BOOK
Aiiaire Belloc, Who Predicted Pres.
ent Situation, Comments On
Possible Results.

Hilaire Belloc, whose book two
years ago outlined exactly the meth.
DDS by which Germany would o.an
the war by an attack on Liege, and
predicted specifically in detail ex
actly what has happened, now says
of the present situation:
"The chief blow against the Frenc!,
defensive is still intended to be de-
livered across the Belgian plains and
on into the fat country of Northeast
France. 1t is a great hazard Germany
Is taking.
What seems likely In the immei
late future is an attempt to Break the
allied armies line north of the east
and west course of the Mouse and
Sambre rivers and thence come across
the Belgian plains.
IF it succeeds the pressure on the
German armies from the south in AL
sace-Lorraine will at once cease, be
cause France must quickly bring all
her reserves north and concentrate
item to stop the Germans advance
on Paris.
IF it fails the French advance ON
Germany's left flank from Alsace-Lor

INMATES TO HAVE
MORE LIBERTIES
State Charges May Write Uncensored
Letters In the Future, Says the
Governor.

Orders have been issued by Cover
nor Hatfield to the warden of the
state penitentiary, superiptendents OF
the Boys Industrial Home and the
Girls Industrial Home, and to the
superintendent Of the West Virginia
Hospital for the Insane, tho Second
Hospital for the Insane and Ahe West
Virginia asylum, directing that any
and all of the inmates Of these insti-
tutions shall be permitted, when not
at work, to write letters to the COVER.
nor or any state official connected
with the management Of these insti-
tutions, without having their letters
censored before being dispatched.
Nothing Of a critical nature is in.
dictated in the governors order as to
the handling Of such matters in the
past by the authorities placed in
charge of these institutions, but it
evidently is his opinion that the use
OF the censorship may have been
overworked, and that things which
should have been brought to his at
tention or that of the state board Of
control, may have been suppressed.
It also is ordered that the inmates
OF these institutions shall be permit
ted to write as many letters as they
desire to relatives, friends and other
persons, provided such letters be ven
sored by the superintendent, or an
official Of their staff. as may be deem
ed necessary, to insure that the sub
ject matter is proper and truthful.
The practice in the past has been
to permit the inmates to write only
a certain number of censored letters
each month. This especially was true
at the state penitentiary. The order
of the governor Is regarded as a
widening of the personal freedom OF
the unfortunates of the state which
will be greatly appreciated by them
and their relatives and friends.

held in Fargo and conducted the
dairying division. There was a milk
ing contest which was quite interest
ing. the cows scoring high.
Fair Was Great Success.
Mr.. Flint says the fair was a
great success, and especially was the
live stock exhibit a wonder. He says
the live stock exhibits have increas-
ed by far faster than any other de-
partment in the fair. This is a good
indication. as it shows that the live
stock industry is developing rapidly.
Attended Tioqa Fair. /.
On Saturday Mr.. Flint was at
Tioga, In eastern Williams county,
where he addressed a large crowd
at the. Tioga Farmers Fair, which
was held in that city on the 24th
and 25th. He says they have a real
fair and 1t was we'll patronized, and
had many splendid exhibits. MI.
