ENABLING ACT PASSED

Through the courtesy of
the Staunton Leader we re-
ceived a message Wednes-
day evening to the effect that
the Enabling Act, so long
asked for by the people, had
passed the Senate.
The message did not give
the vote on the bill, but
mentioned the fact that SEN
ator Echols supported it.
The bill fixes the date on
which the people of the State
will vote on prohibition as
September "a, 1914.
All who are qualified on
Jan. l, 1914, and those be-
coming of voting age before
the election, will be entitled
to vote.

rlonterey, Va. Friday, Feb 6 1914

Bills were offered in the House
to release all of the interest of the
commonwealth in the Staunton-

tween the Augusta line and top OF
Shenandoah mountain to the West
Virginia line to the county Of High.
land, and to ra!ease portion in the
county of Augusta lying between
Staunton and the line between
Highland and Augusta on top OF
Shenandoah mountain, to the
county of Augusta.
BY reference to the proceedings
it is ascertained that Senator Ech-
OILS is the patron of this bill, and,
it is supposed, introduced it at the
solicitation Of Augusta county cltl
zens.
The only way in which the pro
posed bill will affect Highland will
be in taking from her that portion
lying in Augusta county about
five miles and puttingit under the
supervision rf Augusta, where 1t
rightly belongs.
We have heard nothing but ap
proval from Highlanders who have
read of the proposed change. Our
people are deeply concerned, and
her highestinterests and at stake, in
the improvement of the pike, and
the outlook will be far more hope
full, so far as the five mile section
concerned, in Augustus hands
than in ours. Her people are wide
awake and progressive in the mat
ter of modern roads, while High
land shows no disposition to get
out of the old ruts 80 wasteful and
unsatisfactory. Assuredly the
change cannot make matters any
worse,

Misleading
Monterey, Va.
Feb. 4, 1914.

Feb. 4, 1919.
Editor Highland Recorder.
My Dear Sir
In your issue of the Recorder
January 80, 1914. there appears,
over the signature of Sometimes,
a statement which is of very
misleading nature. Rev. H. A.
Brown is represented as saying, in
substance, that a portion of the
Missionary money which we pay to
carry the gospel to the heathe"-
comes back to the preachers.
Among our assessments for ben
evolent purposes are the assess
ments for /. Foreign Missions, 2.
Home and Conference Missions.
Now as all Methodist people ought
to know, only the former of these
is, or has ever BEEN intended for
use on the foreign field. And it is a
matter of record that about
ninety-three-cents of every dollar
paid into this fund is actua II put
into the hands of laborers IN the
foreign fields
A little over seven per cent.
covers all the expenses of the
Board of Missions in handling tn s
money and placing it in the hands
of the Missionaries to whom it is
paid.
This is lower percetage than is
incident to the running of any
insurance company or other
business concern of like proportion,
in the country. Not one cent of
the money raised for Foreign
Missions is diverted to any other
use.
The fund known as Home and
Conference Mission is divided into
two parts. The Home Missions fund
goes into the hands Of the General
Board of Missions, at Nashville,
Tenn. and is used to carry on Miss
ion work in our own country.
The Conference Mission fund is
applied, by our Conference Board
of Missions to supplement the
salary OF those preachers, in our
own Conference. who are serving
Mission charges and do not receive
living salary. For this very
purpose this fund is raised, and to
this it is applied.
Respectfully,
LII. LoWance.

ADVERTISING NOT A GAMBLE
Expert Gays Thsrs ars still Too Many
People Who "Take FIyers" In
Publicity Game.

]. George Frederick in Advertising
and Selling" says: There are too
many people today who still take fly.
ers' in advertising. They shut their
eyes, grit their teeth, dig into their
jeans and let fly.
This is SO, not only Of the small
advertiser, who risks $500 on this fly
er, but also Of the large advertiser
who risks hundreds of thousands OF
dollars. There are actually advertis-
ers spending a great deal of money,
running into millions, who today in
some degree still insist and seriously
attempt to maintain that advertising
is necessarily sort of flyer for any
concern.
Here Is the key to the whole s1tua-
ticn-the conditions. The man who
takes a little flyer and the man who
takes a big flyer in advertising,
whether they do it on gamble OF
whether they delude themselves with
schemes OF averages, are both ignor'
ing conditions. These conditions are
concrete, even though they may be
conditions of mind in consumers and
buyers.
The thing to do is collect, chart
and analyze the conditions and spread
them out in front Of one and look
them squarely in the face; build the
sales and advertising plan according
20 them, and not according to any
theory or scheme or picturesque
gambling instinct"

Interesting Figures

incidentally we came lnCo possess
sion of the following facts relative
to tolls collected at the Marshall
gate, Heawaters, during the clos
ing quarter of the year, October,
November and December:
The total amount was S37O>O7,
of which amount the automobile
people paid S9S 80, over fourth.
The factsthat much stock is NOV
ed during these fall months must
be borne IN mind, because this ma
turally reduces the relative proper
ton contributed by automobiles
under normal conditions.
These figures are referred to here
mainly to remind the public as we'll
as the road officials that the auto
mobile is doing liberal part to-
ward maintaining our mud pike
In fact, the auto is one of our best
revenue producers. being taxed nc
less than three times-as personal
property, special license for running
and heavy tolls wherever they 60.
Another interesting feature for
speculation is suggested. If the
auto tolls at one gate alone amount
to nearly 500 per quarter undtr
existing conditions, could we not
afford to court their favor, and
what might be looked for in the
shape of increased revenue if this
grand highway was kept in real
good shape?
Doesn't it look like we owe it to
ourselves and to the travelling pub
lie to at least get rid of the water
breaks and make Il e rough places
snoothe?
AS many persons see it, and as a
plain deduction from the figures
cited, to refuse or neglect to do
that much at least, is to close our
eyes to our own interests and ignore
the claims of motorists. 10 us
their patronage, the income there
from, is new business"--just that
much in excess OF what. we would
otherwise have-yet we are unWlli
ing to recognize their special claims
to even a reasonable extent subject
ing this class of patrons to jolt's and
discomforts, while their machines
are reduced to wrecks Is it fair?
Why not cater to their trade and
treat them as the age and the sltua-
ton demand? ...

Peculiar After Effects
of Grip This Year.
LEAVES KIDNEYS IN
WEAKENED CONDITION.

Doctors in all parts of the coun-
try have been kept busy with the
epidemic of grip which has visited
so many homes. The symptoms of
grip this year are often very dis
tressing and leave the system in a
run down condition, particularly
the kidneys which seem to suffer
most, as almost every victim com
plains of lame back and urinary
troubles which should not be neg
lected, as those danger signals
often lead TO dangerous kidney
troubles. Druggists report a large
sale on DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root
which so many people say soon
heals and strengthens the Kidneys
after an attack of grip. Swamp
Root is a great kidney, liver and
bladder remedy, and, being an
herbal compound, has gentle
healing effect on the kidneys,
With is ostimmediately noticed
in most cases by those who try it.

We have more than once advo-
Gated the building of an electric
line into Highland County. In that
county there is great stretch OF
agricultural land some of the
richest in Virginia-almost entire
ly isolated by lack of transporta-
ton facilities, and if only good
reliable electric railroad were build
from Staunton to Monterey, Staunt
ton would become its commercial
capital. Our merchants would prof
it by such a line, and the value of
Highland property would be
