TAZEWELL'S NEW SOCIETY.

Through the courtesy of Prof. Co.
lehon, | was given the privilege of
appearing before the Tazewell High
School last Monday morning, my OBJ
ject being to interest the pupils (and
teachers as welD, in the work of the
American Humane Society, the OBJ
ject of which is, the prevention of
cruelty to animals, and to organize
in the school what is known as a
Band of Mercy" auxiliary to the
main society. There are hundreds of
thousands of these little Bands of
Mercy" in the country, numbering
more than two million members. There
are no fees of any kind. The only
Imitation fee" is the pledge which
is promise to try to be kind to all
dumb animals and to protect them
from cruelty as far as possible, ETC.
This is the substance of the pledge
A large number of the pupils took the
pledge. The teachers will see to n
further organization in their respec-
tive rooms when convenient. 1t is
good thing to teach children kindness
and consideration for all Gods help
less creatures.
The opening exercises of the school
were interesting. The large chapel
was almost packed. / saw no empty
seats. The opening exercises require
about Is minutes. There is music, in
strumental and vocal, reading the
scriptures and prayer. The singing
is good and inspiring. There is per-
feet or almost perfect order and sys-
tenn all the way through, and 1 am
glad indeed, that l was present.
Come up some morning-any morn
ing-at 8 o'clock, and witness the
opening exercises. You will be heart
lily welcomed and highly pleased.

CHURCH ATTENDANCE.

Church attendance in Tazewell is
not what it should be. There is a
reason for this. Can it be that the
people, many of whom are Christ
ians(?) are turning deaf ear and
stand condemned on the charge of I'M
faithfulness? Or have the ministers
of God failed to press the claims of
Jesus?
Condemnation lies somewhere.
Accordingg to Matthew 1920,
Jesus has promised to be at the
church next Sunday. The saved and
the unsaved are invited to be present.
Brother Pastors, note what per cent
OF your membership are present, and
what per cent treat the invitation
with negligence (not to say silent
contempt). The Lord knows those
who really can't come.
Were not ten cleansed?"
Speak out Brother Pastor, ask
"Where are the nine?" -
When these ungrateful nine who
fail to return to thank their Savior
say when they die, note how the
relatives, friends, editors and preach
ers will take care Of their money,
their kinfolks their lodges, and their

WARSHIPS GOING
TO PANAMA CANAL.

Washington, Dec. 15.-President
Wilson and his Cabinet decided today
to send American warships to the Ca
nal Zone to guard against neutrality
violations by belligerent ships. Just
how many ships will be dispatched
will bed etermined after full report
has been received from Governor
Goethals, of the Canal Zone, and Cap.
tain Rodman, naval officer at the ca
nal.
Both Secretary Garrison and Secre-
tary Daniels made it clear today that
the delay in acting on Colonel Goc-
thals's request for lestroyers was due
to al ack of information. Mr.. CARR
son explained that the colonel had
asked for destroyers without specify
ing the purpose of their use. In re-
ply to message of inquiry, Colonel
Goethals explained that wireless reg
ulations were being violated in canal
waters, and referred to the misuse of
the Canal Zone as base of supplies.
The War Department again asked for
specific instances of what had occur
red, but tonight no further informa-
ton had been received.

ITALY BUYS $4,000 HORSES.

New York, Dec. 1.-THE largest
single contract probably ever signed
in the United States for the purchase
of horses was made in this city to-
day, on account of the European war;
1t calls for the delivery, within short
time, of $4,000 perfectly sound young
animals, broken to harness or saddle,
at u price said to be between 5000
and $3.50 each. The horses will be
used for artillery and cavalry service.
The amount Of the contract is between
$5,000,000 and $6,000,000.
The remarkable fact of the contrac.
is that theh orses aren OF bought or
one of the powers actually at war
The order comes from the representa-
tives of the italian government. 1t
is admitted that the horses are for
the artillery and cavalry. The fact
gives peculiar significance to the re-
ported complete mobilization of the
Italian army, and the rumor that
Italy will be prepared to enter the
war before the end of this month.
The contract was negotiated be-
tween representatives of the Italian
government, who came over express
ly for that purpos, and local COM
payn, which will begin at once the
work of gathering the horses for ship
mcnt.

FURTHER TROOPS
ORDERED TO NACO

Washington, Dec. 15-Further dem
onstration was made by the United
States government today of its deter
mination not to tolerate continued fir
ing by the Mexican factions at Naco,
Sonora, into American territory.
President Wilson, after a brief dis.
cussion with his Cabinet, instructed
Secretary Garrison TO comply with the
request of Brigadier- General Tasker
H. Bliss, at Naco, Arizona, for rein
forcements to handle APP ossible emer-
gency situation. Three regiments of
infantry and three batteries of artil
lery were ordered to Naco.
The general understanding tonight
in administration quarters was that,
as soon as the additional American
forces were in position on the line,
the United States would return any
artillery or infantry fire which might
comet rom Mexico territory. AS it
will require three days for the troops
20 reach Naco, the Mexican factions
have virtually thatm UGH time to con-
ply with the American demands, or be
shelled out of their positions.

PEACE ON EARTH.

Peace? Yes; that is after all and
above all our Christmas gift. To
make JOY for others, to behold their
JOY, to rejoice in it, is the joy un-
speakable. Any Why? Because it
is godlike and divine. Even so the
Father joys in our joy, and the Son
perfects his joy in completing ours.
Peace is the product of passing ou1
of the human into the divine clement
and activity. No man is peaceful who
cannot share, in some faint way AZ,
least, in the experiences of his Fa-
Their and his God. That is the only
real absorption of which heather phi.
losophy has dreamed as it's highest
goal, but which the gospel alone has
brouht to light and made accessible
and attainable.
How much our Christmas Sunday
has in store for us! May we all in
deed realize its richest treasures and
feast our souls upon them. Nav it
be the happiest of happy Christmas
days that comes once more to us. AS
we hear our children sing, NAV it he
the echo of the angels song, and as
we unite with them in praising Christ
the Lord may his peace enter into our
hearts and abidet here forevermore.

HOW TO USE FARM CREDIT

To often the farmer, like the Irish
man, doesn't know what he want
and won't be happy till he gets it."
II we are to get proper system of
rural credits, every reading farmer
must inform himself and be prepared
to help form an intelligent public
opinion on the subject. To this end
we urge every Progressive Farmer
reader to send a postal card to the
United States Department of Agricul
ture, Washington, D. c., and ask for
. free copy of Farmers Bulletin, Nc
S93, "ilow to Use Farm Credit"
Then each farmers club should APP
point some man to study the whole
subject and lead in discussion of it.

SEES GOOD TINES AHEAD.
Pat Crockett, Salesman for Pack
ing House, Is a Booster.

Bluefeld Daily News.
Pat Crockett, salesman for the big
Tazewell Packing Company, was here
yesterday, having come in from the
coalfields. Mr.. Crockett is a booster.
In an interview with the Daily News
man Mr.. Crockett expressed the opin-
ION that with the coming of the new
year decided improvement in all
lines of trade would result, basing the
assertion on the general observation
throughout the country. However,
the conditions we have passed through
during the past several months have
had no great effect on the output OF
the Tazewell Packing Company, as is
indicated by the volume of business
enjoyed by the concern. The new
Bluefield chamber of commerce might
do well to interest the promoters of
this enterprise, which was organized
exclusively by Tazewcll county peo-
pie, many of them farmers by pro
fession. The project was success
from the beginning and has outgrown
even the most optimistic hopes of the
promoters. Car after car of stock
is slaughtered by the Tazewell Pack
ing Company daily, in addition to the
native supply, and the business has
so expanded that the number of road
statesmen has been increased during
past few months. The enterprise is
not only crdit to the town of Taze-
well, but also credit to the county
and section. Think of half dozen
TaZewell county farmers putting their
money into an enterprise to compete
with the gigantic packing houses of
the country and making an undisputed
success of the venture and you have
sized up the present status of the
Tazewell Packing Company. Many
other industries embracing an entire
ly different product, would pay just
as well if located in this immediate
section.
