Medina county's contribution
toward the fund for the war sufferers
in Belgium are pouring in from all
over the county. Many and large con-
tributions are expected to be made to-
day and for that reason we are un-
able to give the total amount raised,
nor do we feel justified in even ap-
proximating the figure. 1t is known
however, that schools and churches
have been responding very generously
and that the various banks Of the
county are receiving numerous sub
stantial checks from business men
whose hearts are in the right place.
If you have not given something
toward furthering this righteous
movement, today is a most fitting oc-
casion for doing SO. While we are
enjoying peace and plenty today sur
rounded by loved ones. let US not be
unmindful of our duty to those who
are less fortunate and in dire misery

In Bad Taste.

Every once in a while the
Courier is asked to print a card
of thanks for some subscriber
who has lost a friend and whose
gratitude goes out in sympathy
to those who were so kind in the
hour of sorrow.
The public appreciates the
motive but the thanks are as
tingling brass. The words go
in one ear and out the other
Few of us are so busy but what
we can stop long enough to call
I'D our friends and express our
selves in more tender language
than the most fluent writer, or
we could wait until opportunity
presents and meet our friends
face to face and there express
our appreciation for the acts of
kindness. There is no cause for
rushing into print. 1t is cheap
thanks. 1t sounds nearly as
empty as the husband, who,
with dripping tears thanked the
kind neighbors for their great
assistance in the death of my
darling wife," and in ten days
went and married another wo-
man.
The newspapers are willing TO
print the card of thanks, except
that we do not like for the
world to know that we are as
cheap, or so busy that we have
not the time to go to our friends
and thank them personally, if
need be. AS a matter of fact,
Newport daily independent. (Newport, Ark.) 1901-1929, 1914-07-27

no thanks are necessary, either
in print or personally. No one
ever renders service in a time OF
death or sickness simply to get
thanks. He does not expect
any thanks. If he did not rem
der all the assistance and help
in such a time through a desire
to help, some other motive not
necessary to extend thanks for
is evident.
Some newspapers write them
thus: 1--WE desire to thank our
many friends for their assist
q e in the death of our beloved
one." as though the friend had
actually assisted in bringing a
bout the death. One even went
so far after such notice as to
say, "We will be glad to return
the favor if the opportunity pre-
sents ITSELF"
To say the least, the card of
thanks is in bad taste and un-
called for. Don't do it. Thank
your friends when the opportu
nifty presents itself, if you will,
but even this is unnecessary and
in bad taste. Ask yourself if you
expect or long for thanks for
such service-Blytheville Cou-
rier.

Through the agency Of these rays

They Had Their Origin In Ben Frank.
line Double Glasses.
Everybody who uses bifocal glasses
probably wonders where the idea orig
inally came from. Bifocal glasses are
the kind that possess two separate
lenses cemented together so that by
looking In the upper part one can see
at a great distance and by looking
through the lower half one can read.
Most authorities are inclined to give
Benjamin Franklin credit for the In
vention. He was. so the story goes. an
inveterate reader and could not use his
reading glasses when looking any dis
tance away.
Finally the notion came to him that
he could combine his glasses. and he
thereupon had the lenses cut In half
and one-half Of each lens placed in the
rim Of each spectacle rim. The result
was that single pair Of glasses was
sufficient, though present day oculists
state that the sharply drawn line must
have affected his eyes.
From this idea the oculists gradually
developed glass in which the lower
part was arranged for reading and the
upper part for long distance vision,
while the annoying marking line" was

Mount Rainisr's Shadows.

There are some wonderful shadow
effects produced by and upon the g.
gantic snowy cone OF Mount Rainier.
1t sometimes happens that the sky as
seen from the city Of Tacoma just be-
fore sunrise is covered with a dome
Of cloud $4,000 feet or more in height,
while behind the peak, toward the east
the sky is clear. In such circumstances
the rising sun casts the shadow of the
great mountain upon the cloud curtain
overhead in the form Of vast blue
triangle. the point Of which rests upon
the apex OF the peak. At other times
the shadow Of the earth can be seen
creeping up the cone In a distinct
curve. while the flush Of sunset stains
tho snow above the line Of shadow to
q deep pink.
