DEMONSTRATION,

The electrical demonstration giv-
en- Saturday evening at the audi
torium by Jackson County's young
electrician, Mr. George Cox, of Cul-
loWhee, was an entertainment of a
unique character and one that
proved to be very interesting to the
people. Mr.. Cox made a short talk
on electrical subjects and then de.
monstrated different phases of the
wonders of that mysterious force.
1t was regrettable however that
Mr.. Cox was handicapped by the
burning out of a fuse. It taking
some time to remedy this he was
unable because of lack of time to
complete his entire program.

PEOPLE WILL KNOW.

Whats the use? Nobody knows"
How often have young men-and
men not SO young-and some wo-
men-deluded themselves into a
false security by the thought that
nobody knows?"
But somebody does know-often
everybody knows.
No matter what our imperfections
may be, there are those who know
and what few know, the people
will know.
1t matters not what our aims and
aspirations may be, the people will
know sooner or later-will always
know.
No mouth is so close but that a
word is dropped here and there
and when two and two are put to-
gether brains will call it four.
1he man who tOtters on the brink
of dishonor must reconcile himself
to the fact that some will know
many will know-eventually every-
body will knOW-and will Judge as
they know.
The woman who perils her soul
must accept the world as her
audience, for a few people will
know-and others will know-and
then all will know-and again will
judge as they know.
The churchman who bespatters
bis cloak of religion is not immune
People know-know him-know his
ways-know him for what he is
and judge him as they know.
The man who swaggers through
life with pride in his wickedness is
also known known by his deeds
by his sins-by his lack of morality
of sense-and of brains. He, too
will be judged as he is known.
No act is so small, no characteris-
tic so infinitesimal, but that the.
people will know-will always know
And people will talk-some soft
ly-others n0isly with a shrue
here "a wink there-or a grin.
For the people will know-will
always know-and will judge us by
what they know.
What's the use? There's everv
use.
Make it good deed here, a word
Of kindness there. a helping hand to
the afflicted and the needy, for
every little act has its influence on
each and every one of us.
And in this the people will know
will always know will judge
us as they know.
