SOME ARE ALWAYS LATE.

There is a man who is always late.
A business conference is called at
1880 sharp among twelve men; elev-
en- arrive; they do not want to pro-
ceed until the twelfth member comes.
He is fifteen minutes late, takes his
seat and looks wise. He has feel
ing that he is so badly needed in
the conference that the business
could not go forward without him,
and takes to himself a measure of
self-satisfaction and assumes an air
of great Importance.
What he has really done Is to kill
three hours OF time that belonged to
the elevemother members of the bus
mess conference, he has created the
impression upon his friends that he
feels his Importance and he has de-
tracted materially from his own pres
tige and has given evidence of a
weakness that prevents him from
being a first-class business man.
Think OF the rights of the other man
and be on time at business confer
ences and club meetings.
In the theatre, when you are COM
fortably seated and studying closely
the plot and at a most interesting
situation, the man who is late passes
down the aisle, crowds his way in
front, seeking a seat which he had
reserved for him. He disturbs half the
spectators, destroys his own pleas
ure. and sits restlessy throughout
the performance, to the annoyance
of those about him. He belongs to
the class who establish n record
for caring nothing for the comfort
of others, and makes himself un-
popular.
On a Sunday morning when the
pastor is reading the lesson that con-
veys the thought of the morning talk,
at a time when the person who gets
anything wholesome and lasting must
be careful to catch the reading of
the lesson the man who is always
late, comes dragging in, with wife
and babies. All have shoes OF a
different squeak, seats are scarce
and the mother and little ones must
be separated, and there is an uproar
during the entire service. 1t is an
other case of the man who is always
late. Ii Is another case of the man
who is careless of the comfort of
others. The habit grows. In its
path is business failure. Loss of the
proper respect of friends grows out
of such carelessness.
The man who is always late makes
a tremendous sacrifice in order to
live up to his reputation of always
being late.

TO THE WORTHY
PEOPLE OF ARDMORE:

In all my travels in this great
child saving work | have not met a
more benevolent and appreciative
people than have the good citizens
of Ardmore proven themselves to be.
They have always responded to my
call for assistance in a full and
heaped up and running-over measure.
AS an example, last Friday morn
ing, | suggested to a most worthy
gentleman of Ardmore that If he
could start my list with twenty dol
lars it surely would be greatly ap-
preciated 1t made me blush little
to say 1t, but he replied promptly:
"Why not make it twenty tive?' and
he did so. Many indeed liberal dona-
tions were received from the good
and kind-hearted citizens of this
city, most of whom expressed regret
that they could not contribute much
more to the great cause of caring
for the blessed little ones.
OF course these good people have
right to be greatly interested in
the Cornish Orphans Home The
first inmates ever received by that
humble little institution was bunch
of five poor little homeless orphan
children from Ardmore. Since the
Home was started not year has
passed that number of children
have not been received from Carter
county. While making out annual
report either for annual board meet
ing convened in May, or annual re-
port to Governor Cruce in July |
took pains to pick out the names of
the children received from Carter
county. and found that for that past
fiscal year we had received thirty
children from Carter county alone
Today we have in the Home six
children from Carter county, and
they are happy. contented children.
| remember of no call upon the
institution to take children from Ard
more that such request was not
promptly granted. The Home has
no right to not respond to the calls
of the people, who have so bounti-
fully and so freely bestowed such
great blessings upon it. 1t could
hardly be more of an ArdmOre insti-
tuition than it has always been.
1t is located only two and one
half miles from the west border
from where Ardmore has always
drawn largely her immense volume
of trade and reaped her enormous
prosperity, and We are indeed pleased
to be able to state that this institu
tion is credited by these mobiles as one
Of Ardmores greatest benefactors.
Thousands of its funds are spent
here Almost its entire supplies are
purchased here. 1t might well be
called a child of Ardmore Its dear
old father lives here CIV. S. VOL
verton.) The true and steady handed
man who has extended complete
fatherly kindness to the manager.
The dear old Ardmoreite and our
most worthy John Easley, have done
the Cornish Home more kindness
than we will ever be able to repay.
For the management is not worthy
of this kindness OF you dear friends.
but those dear. sweet little children
are worthy of every blessing we can
bestow upon them.
May the approaching year bring
you richer and more of the deserved
blessings than any you have yet en-

OLD TRUTHS
ARE YET To Be
Il AR n { D
DR.. CHAPLIN IN ADDRESS BEFORE
HEALTH ASSOCIATION CRiTI-
ClZES MUCH OF PUBLICITY
IN BULLETINS.

Jacksonville, Fla, Dec. 1.-Un-
truthful and unscientific statements in
bulletins issued by state departments
OF health were severely criticized
by DR. Charles f. Chaplin, superin-
tendent of health of Providence, r..
l., in an address before the American
Public Health association today.
"For the sake of those who come
after, stop filling your columns with
tommy-rot, hot air and dope" he
said do not be always seeking
novelty. Most that is new is bad
There are plenty of old truths which
all of our 1OO0O0,000 people have not
yet learned"
Among the fallacies being spread
to the detriment of real public health
work, DIR. Chaplin cited what he called
the "old heresy about the all-import-
ance of dirt in the causation of dis
ease" He said that it is doubtless
true that whatever encourages clean
illness tends to discourage the habits
which favor infection, but he believ-
ed that "to fight all kinds of dirt
instead of limiting attacks to dan
gerous dirt is misleading and futile"
Dr. Chapin especially criticised
much of the publicity on the rela-
ton of air to disease. He stated
that the old theory of eXhaled poi
sons had been demolished that
germs rarely floated in the air; that
we are still in profound ignorance of
the relation of humidity to disease;
that most of the supposed effects of
foul. unventilated rooms have been
shown to be due to temperature and
odors. Food adulteration, except in
a few instances" he said sis an econ
omic. not a health problem. AS to
partially decayed foods we know
nothing of their relation to health.
The clean handling of foods is most
desirable from a sanitary standpoint,
but real cleanliness is most difficult
of attainment Much that appears
is carelessly written and the en-
phasis Is placed on the wrong thing,
as when dust absorbs all the atten-
tion and nothing is said about dirty
hands"

MARBLE WORKERS PENSIONS.
New Plan Adopted and Nine Men Are
Already on Pension.

Proctor. Jan. "a pension system
has been adopted by the Vermont Mar.
bic company for the benefit of all EN-
ployes engaged in any capacity any
where. Already nine men have been
placed on the pension roll.
ANY employe who has reached the age
Of 20 years and who has been in the
continuous service of the company for
the last preceding 90 or more years is
to be retired and receive pension. Any
employee who has been in the continuous
service of the company for the last pre-
ceding 20 or more years and who, by
reason of age, sickness or other disabil-
itv. is incapaeitated for full work, may
at the discretion Of the board of diree-
tiers, be retired from active service and
receive a pension.
The amount of pension is to be as
many per cent. of the average yearly
wage actually earned by the employe for
tie last 10 years preceding retirement
as he has worked continuously for the
company. For example: If his yearly
average wage for the last 10 years of
service was 81 900 and he had worked
40 wears. his pension would be 40 per
cent. OF al ,bOu vi SfVV PEI gtais pay abiV
in monthly instruments at the end of
each month. This is the basis generally
adopted in pension systems so far estab-
lished in this country.
This pension system is purely volun-
tary provision for the benefit of its en-
ployes and wholly at the expense of the
company, no part of the employees wages
being retained on account of it.

ENDORSING THE TAX COMMISSION

In view OF the big majority which is rolling up for Emmett Boyle
in his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for governor, AMI
which promises to become greater as the final returns come in, 1t Is
evident that voters considered the contest a which involved the
perpetuaton of the Tax commission and kindred bodies. Boyle, who
is the embodiment of progressive legislation, made his fight on these
lines, and his splendid victory is due, OF only TO the voters faith in
his sincerity, but to his devotion to- the peoples cause.
1t is now in order for the successful candidates, when they meet i'll
the next few days and formulate a platform o n which state Democracy
will stand, to make the party's smbboeth that of economy, S o far a 1t
is compatible with progression, but under all rcumsances the Tax
commission, whether it is proposed to merge it with other commits
sions o not, must be the star feature, and candidates FOL the legislature
mus be made to take it as their main tenet.
The Tax commission, give it what nan you please or enroll 1t
with the workings of any other body, has metos stay in Nevada and Its
beni6cence cannot be foretod. 1t has already done a lot OF good work
in the state and it promises to do more. The people have declared tor
it in their voe of Tuesday and will OF tolerate any attempt to weaken
its efficiency.
