Plans are on foot for the organi-
cation of a stockyards company to
build and operate pens at Camargo,
this county. The promoters say that
many of the cattle which come to
this city on Court Days come from
the mountain sections, above Camar-
go, and their plan is to build pens
and hold sales there on Thursdays,
Fridays and Saturdays before Mt.
Sterling Court Days. They say that
$4,000 would be sufficient to buy
land and build pens and that a mar
ket second only to Mt. Sterling could
be built up.

DEPRESSION OVER;
NOW PROSPERITY

Officials of the various Govern
ment departments which touch the
country's business activities feel con-
fident that the most serious effects OF
the European war on American bust
ness have passed. The restoration
/ of the credit balance with Europe
has greatly eased the situation, the
increasing demand from Europe fo1
American food supplies and also to
the sudden development of an abnor-
NAL trade in articles needed by the
huge armies now in the field adding to
that end.
No accurate figures on the con-
tracts of the latter character are
obtainable but orders for horses,
mules, army clothing, harness and
the like have flooded factories and
stockmen in some districts, it is
said that including ammunition or
ders, this business reaches the huge
total of over 2OO,OOO,OOO of dol
lars. In several lines factories are
straining to highest capacity to meet
the demands.
Other factories which have aided
in clearing up the situation or the
opening Of the Federal reserve bank
system, upon which business experts
look as the backbone of the coun-
try's resources; the opening Of the
Panama canal, which has already
increased freight traffic to the west
coast Of South America, and the
entry Of more than eighty foreign
built ships into American registry
under the emergency law passed at
the last session of Congress.

POSTOFFICE ROBBED

Thieves broke into the Postoffice
and general store at Ewington, this
county, some time Tuesday night,
and blew open the safe, securing
about $50 in money, $40 of which
belonged to the Government and the
balance to Paul Weckesser, the
merchant postmaster at Ewington.
Bloodhounds were taken to the scene
but so far no clew has been found.

1t is not ease and facility that
tries us and brings out the good that
is in us, so much as trial and diff
ficutly. Adversely is the tombstone
of character. As some herbs need
to be crushed to give forth their
sweetest odor, so some natures must
be tried by suffering to evoke the ex-
cellence that is in them. Hence
trials often unmask virtues and
bring to light hidden graces; and
where before we saw only phancy
and self diligence, we now see
strength, valor and self-denial.
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1914-12-02

Every man, every woman, every
child has some talent, some power
some opportunity of getting good and
doing good. Each day offers some
occasion for using this talent. As
we use it, it gradually increases, inn
proves and becomes native to the
character. AS We neglect it il
dwindles, withers and disappears
This is the stern but benign law by
which we live. This makes character
real and enduring; this makes pro-
gress possible; this turns men into
angels and virtue into goodness.

! want to believe in the happily old
way
That all will come right in the end

That life will be better and days will
be sweet,
That roses will carpet the world for

That love and affection and honor

Will lift us from sorrow and shadow

That every day brings us the joy of

Fresh with endeavor and duty and

As we swing to our tasks with the
vigor of youth,
Singing the glad music of love and of

Till the storms drift apart and the
clouds disappear.
I want to go trusting that this will
be so,
AS out to the toll and the tumult we

That hearts will be kinder and life

That troubles, like bubbles, will

And all will come right in the end

CHRISTMAS PARCELS

Now comes the time of year when
folks, given to the idea that presents
must be presented to friends and rel
atives at Christmas time, are begin
ming to get ready for the great sea-
son. II might be well to consider a
number of things in connection with
mailing presents, as it frequently oc-
ours that presents mailed right at
Christmas Day are delayed and do
not reach the destination until too
late for the proper receipt Of same.
The establishment Of the parcel
post has given a wonderful impe-
tus to the use of the mails as a means
Of distributing Christmas gifts and in
view of the increased weight limit,
reduced postage and other extern
sions of the service during the past
year, it is anticipated that the
amount Of mail during the approach
ing holiday season will exceed all
previous records. In order that the
Christmas mail may be handled
promptly, it is essential that the pub
lie cooperate with the postal author
tiles to the fullest extent.
All parcels should be mailed at the
earliest possible moment. 1t is not
necessary to wait until the day be-
fore Christmas to mail presents. A
parcel may be marked "Do Not Open
Until Christmas" and sent out at
once. The postal authorities permit
and encourage this plan. A few sim
pie rules, if followed, should result
in much to all parties concerned.
Address parcels fully and plainly.
Place name and address of sender
on all matter.
Pack articles securely, but do not
seal them; use cord freely but not
paste.
In using Christmas seals, do not
place them so as to seal the package
but place them squarely on the paper
so they do not overlap the edges.
Mail parcels as early as possible.
Last year the harvest moon looked
down
On bounteous fields Of grain,
A peaceful scene where lovers stroll
Along the shady lane.
In happy homes the mothers sang
Their evening lullaby,
And little children had no fear
OF danger lurking nigh.
But now the demon law is loosed
And terrors fill the night,
The dangers Of the burning home,
The dangers Of the fight.
Mothers and children hide and wait,
They listen, fear and pray,
While shells are bursting all around
And armies pass their way.
Tonight upon the harvest field
The moon is shining bright,
Where soldier forms lie mute and
still
With faces CHASTITY white.
Oh, what a reaping! Oh, what loss a.!
The flowers of earth cut down
The voice of mourning in the field
And by the ruined town.

Judicial Candidates.

Probate Judge w. @. Dunbar
has announced his candidacy Tor
district judge, and as this year the
judicial positions are taken out OF
politics and the names OF the can
didates appear on the primary
ballot without party designation'
there will. be an interesting con-
test, between the two judges now
on the bench and other aspirants.
Judge Dunbar's splendid record
should give his candidacy favor
able consideration. Judge Dun

Office, has brought forward several
candidates for his position, among

IN RELIGIONS NAME

The Minneapolis Journal political
writer gives religious prejudice as
one of the factors which resulted in
Mr.. Lees defeat. What a joke. Over
in Nicollet County the report was cir
culated that Mr.. Hammond's wife was
Catholic and this absurd report used
to secure votes for Mr.. Lee. Mr.. Ham
mond being confirmed old bachelor
it goes to show the ignorance Of his
traducers. Out in Flora township,
Renville County, a minister accused
Mr.. Hammond of being a Catholic, a
booze fighter and brewery hiring.
Each accusation being direct and
bold-faced lie, one wonders just how
far minister can go in the manu-
facture of falsehood in a pulpit on
the Sabbath. If Mr.. Lee had any
thing any worse handed to him in
this campaign he has our sincere SYM
pathy.-Exchange.

Az INCIDENT AT LIEGE
lea Cli.eGr-cn: Baldwin.

Even IS I read of the campaign in
Northern Belgium there comes the
memory CT an incident which occurred
several years ago on the station plat
form at L;ega.
In the company Of two Americans,
who Rad been studying at German
universities, was travelling from Ber-
lin to Paris. We spent the night at
Liege, and in the morning were on
hand to take the Paris express.
AS my knowledge of both French
and German was decidedly limited, it
fell to my lot to look after the hand
luggage. while my companions saw to
the tickets and the checking of the
trunks While / was thus engaged, a
well-6raased, portly gentleman, of dis
tinctly German type, stepped up and
spoke to me.
I shook my head. "Nicht versteh,''
said I.
Fe tried again, and then I asked
lin question in my limited German.
"Nicht versteh," he replied in turn.
We began to make gestures with
or arms I repeated all the German
words knew, which were about nine
They didn't seem familiar to him. We
began again to make gestures. but
to no avail Finally a brilliant idea
occurred to me.
"Parlez-vous Francaise?" said l.
"Qui, oui," he replied eagerly.
He mopped his brow, then sale
something that sounded suspicious.

"Je ne comprend pas" said he Anj
once more we began gesticulating.
/ At this juncture l espied one of my
companions and hailed him with re.
lief. "Here, Robinson, for heavens
sake, helm this poor dauil out. I've
been trying to find out for the last
ten minutes what he wants"
The stranger literally fell upon my
neck. "By cracky!" he cried, "can you

GOLFERS STRIKERS ARE
attacked By THE THUGS

That war, just as hedious as in Mex
leo, reigns in Golfers, in this state, is
brought out more forcibly every day.
On the 18th Of this month thing by
the name Of Brown, a United States
Deputy Marshal, accompanied by as
sistnt Superintendent Bilderbeck, went
at night, to the home Of John Durasa,
forced an entrance, and while one
held the poor fellows arms the other
pounded his face into an unrecogniza-
Bile mass. This was done because he
refused to 5cab, but insisted that he
had a right to strike to improve his
living conditions.
Warrents have been issued Cor the
midnight asailtants, but no justice is
expected. The men say there is but
one Squire in the vicinity, Latimer,
from whom they can get Justice, and
when he gives a decision in their fav
or the companies carr ythe case to the
hire courts, and that they can't get
the county prosecutor to prosecute as
he is on the side Of the companies.
