Books.

Few finer tributes to books have
ever been paid than this of Henry
Ward Beecher:
When one by one, a loving stu
dent has gathered from all depart
ments of human learning a multi
tude of books, they are not alabas-
ter vases filled with the sweetest
perfume of the soul, they are living
they are companions;
they have received the homage of
our best hours. We have hung our
hearts upon them, and as they sprang
from the noblest parts of their au-
thors, they are clothed with the no.
blest associations of our lives"
Nothing gives more serenity in old
age and so fortifies against inward
or outward woes as collection of
good books. The young people who
are wasting their income in a mad
effort to keep pace with all that
shifting fashions demand in clothes
could insure far greater happiness
for future by investing in a modest
library as they so along.

Just for Today

Lord! for tomorrow and its needs
do not pray;
Keep me, my God, from stain of sin
Just for to-day.
Let me both diligently work
And duly pray;
Let me be kind in word and deed
Just for to-day.
Let me be slow to do my will,
Prompt to obey;
Help me to mortify my flesh
Just for to-day.
Let me no wrong or idle word
Unthinking say;
Set thou a seal upon my lips
Just for to-day,
Let me in season, Lord, be grave,
In seasons gay;
Let me be faithful to Thy grace
Just for to-day.
And if to-day my life
Should ebb away,
Bid me come home to Thee,
Sweet, Lord, to-day.
So for tomorrow and its needs
do not pray;
But keep me, guide me, love me
Lord,
Just for to-day.

The Business Incendiary.


When false rumors are circulat-
ing affecting the solvency of any
bank or firm or institution, those
responsible for the rumor must pay
for the damage done.
But men in New York, in Chica-
60, men everywhere, men engaged
in railroading who want more mon
ey; men out of office who want to
get in; men suffering from indiges-
ton or thwarted ambition may go
up and down our highways and cry
continuously, as they have done I'M
checked for two years, that disaster
is impending, that trade is rotten,
that credit has been destroyed, that
worse is coming. that panic is over
due. and that the whole country is
going to the dogs.
Every observant man knows
that in passing from a Dingley tariff
to an Underwood tariff; from an old
system of currency to a new, bust
ness necessarily awaits the issue
before enlareing its activities. Ev-
cry man knows that Europe has
been hanging on the verge of war
for two years, and that only the pa.
tience and the power of the Presi-
dent have averted war with Mexi-
co, and, therefore, it behooves all
men to be patient in turn, to be
self controlled, to be not afraid, to
be not overconfinent nor depressed,
to pursue the even tenor of their
of their way undisturbed, doing
nothing to cause disturbance any
where.
Trade has stood unprecedented
pressure, ana IL is seen TO be sound
and ready for great things when
peace is assured, when the laws are
established, when the canal is open.
ed and the crops are harvested, but
in the meantime mark the ways of
the agitator, the course of the wan
dering incendiary, the blind and
reckless partisan and stand close to
the leaders chosen by the voice of
the people who are carrying the
nation through unknown wilder
nesses, across rivers of doubt into
the promised charlottesville Post.

When President Wilson. called OIL

When President Wilson called on
the congressman in Washington to
stay with him and help him pass
the laws he had promised the peo-
pie Congressman W. W. Rucker was
one of the thirteen Democratic con-
eressmen from Missouri who
promptly told the president he
would stay until the last man, This
is more than cOmmendable in JuGee
Rucker, and his hundreds of friends
in this county, will. to a man, line
up and fight his battle for him at
the primary during his absence,
and the vote when counted on the
evening of the election will be found
to be as largely in favor of Mr.
Rucker as usual. Sullivan county
is for Rucker and there is not a man
in the district that can beat him.

Information For the Press.

The Industrial Department of the
M. K. & T. Ry. has completed its
report on the motor. car inspection
trip made recently by representa-
tives of that Department The in
vestigating party visited every sta
ton on the Hannibal Division and
studied the business, industrial and
agricultural conditions. The data
obtained will be made the basis for
a closer cooperation in developing
this territory. 1t is expected that a
meeting of representative business
men and farmers from each com.
munity on the Hannibal Division
will be held soon to consider the
data obtained and to devise plans
for organized effort in development.
The following extracts from the re-
port are of interest to our readers:
The Hannibal Division ranks high
in the amount and quality of live
stock. Monroe County especially
has very fine saddle horses, driving
horses and mules. Dairying is de-
veloping but not to the extent that
it should. Paris and Hannibal show
special interest in this industry and
there is a disposition for organized
effort to promote dairying in these
commuties. Silos are beginning to
appear in considerable numbers and
their value is becoming recognized
The alfalfa acreage has materially
increased in the past two years.
Farmers are just beginning to re-
alize the profits in alfalfa. silos and
dairying.
County farm agents were found
in Marion and Cooper Counties
Other communities are seriously
considering plans for securing Farm
Agents in the near future. Practi-
cally every locality has given spec
ial attention to building good roads.
There is some danger that too much
attention will be given to construc-
ton roads and too little will be Civ
en- to their maintenance.
Reports indicate that much of
the soil is acid and needs lining,
The Stoutsville Crushed Rock Com
pany has a modern plant which is
prepared to supply crushed lime
stone in car lots for fertilizer pur-
poses. -
Organized effort for promoting
agricultural resources of this terri
tory is the thing most needed. Con-
ditions are very favorable for such
effort.

HAT BAND POLICY
Mrs. Cora g. Lewis Condemns
Male Headgear in Address.
Tells Normal Boys She Is Also
Authority ON Sweethearts.'

Hays. Kan. Sept. 26.-Mrs. Cora q.
Lewis, member OF the board Of ad-
ministration, made the annual open
ing address at the Fort Hays Kansas
state normal school today, to the larg-
est student body In the history Of the
school. 49,
Mrs. Lewis said that the present
war in Europe proved that the schools
of that continent had failed to train
in democracy, right ideals, and citi-
zenship. AT the close of the present
war the young people in the United
States who are now in college will
have tho greatest opportunity ever
presented to youth for q field of
achievement" Mrs. Lewis said.
Mrs. Lewis said that she was glad
to see more hat bands worn at the
right angle and fewer loud sox on the
boys Of the Fort Hays normal than
on any student body OF which she
tells everybody that the boy recently
had a Ave dollar bin In his pocket. !"
She also paid her respects to the
"frowzy- blowzy school girl"
The ..udents who packed, the nor
NAL auditorium cheered- Mrs Lewis to
the echo when she told the young men
that she was an expert on sweethearts
and that her advice was authority.
"Your first sweetheart means the most
to you," she said. ''She will be the
standard for. all the succeeding ones.
If your first choice is Of the right
kind. the 'frowzy-blowzy.' sweet
