Today the Mason and Dixon line
has been re-surveyed and remarked
and divested of its chief erroneous
traditicns In 1S49 a revision of the
line was made by a Joint cemmission
from Pennsylvania, Maryland and
Delaware and 1t was then found that
the original survey was So nearly ac-
curate that the change involved Sy
the correction amounted to less than
two acres which were added to Mary
land. In 1903. Pennsylvania and
Maryland each appropriated $4,000
Tor the restoration Of the line. M,sny

on breaking them the stones emitted
q sulphurous odor. So thcruugh was
the search that some were found ia

MORALS OF THE CHILD

Parents, set your children a good
example by going to church Sunday.
The man of the home who bravely
declares that the churches are for the
women folks as he lies in bed or ar
ranges to spend the day in some UNI
lgodly way not only Injuries himself,
but his idle, boastful words are heard
by the little boy or girl at home.
Children are impressionable, and they
quickly accept the fathers viewpoint
Where is the father who is not in
terested in the morals of his child?
And where will the child be taught
Lessons of righteousness if not in the
house of God? The example of
father who is regular attendant at
church is more powerful than any
sermon that can be preached IF you
think you are too far advanced in
thought, if you are sure that the
clergymen's sermons are dry, if you
must forgoe an hour of your SUM
Der Sunday, make sacrifice for
your little boy or your little girls
sake.
Recall the days when you were a
child and how you watched your dear
parents trudge off to church on the
Sabbath. OF course the world was
not as advanced then as it is today.
But many of the so-caled advances
really are recesions. In many places,
thanks to this advanced thought, the
name of God doesn't obtain the rever-
ence it did when you were child.
There is no denying that "going to
church" has detrioated in many of the
SO called enlightened communities.
This enlightenment is only dark
ness. Where is the scientist or lead
er in advanced thought that compares
with God? Churches are the houses
of God. There you will hear the word
of God. They should be filled to over
flowing.
Help swell the attendance by going
TO CHURCH Sunday.
LISTEN FOR THE BELL and GO
TO CHURCH next Sunday.

A VERY IMPORTANT OFFICE.

The election of competent and in
terested men as members of the
Boards of Education is most i'm
portant matter and one that should
be given the fullest consideration by
the voters in the various magisterial
districts in the county,
The education of the youth of our
county is matter that should not
for one moment be overlooked and in
electing men to these positions we
should select the best, regardless of
party affiliations. 1t is a mater that
should not be mixed up in politics,
as the school children of all parties
are the ones that are most vitality
concerned, and while we are along
this line it might be we'll to remark
that in Barker District, we are very
fortunate in having Mr.. J. N. Bibey,
of Junior, as a man who has con-
sented to run for the office of men,
Der of the board, and he has promis-
ed to give his time and attention to
the duties of the office should the peo-
pie see fit to elect him
Mr. Bibey is a native of Barbour
county and Barker district, having
been born near Belington At years
ago. He was born on the farm and
has since followed that vocation prac-
tically oil his life. He attended the
public schools, and for several terms
has been a trustee if the Junior school
giving entire satisfaction to all the
patrons at that place.
Mr.. Bibey is a patron of the schools
and takes an active interest in all
matters pertaining thereto A vote
for him will be vote in the right
direction. You should be interest
ed in the schools and should place in
office as member of the board of
education men who you know will
take an interest in your children the
same as his own.

benefit of the whole people they were
non est. There never has been an
election in Barbour county but that
the name of "Kittle" has been on the
in the primary err in the election and
from the sentiment this year of the
people throughout the county it seems
that the familiar name will be rele-
gated to the rear Over hundred
Republican voters in the county
scratched him in the primary when
there was no one running against
him and there is no telling what they
will do with Apuilla Ward as his OPP
ponent. AS king George" has run
for justice of the peace, clerk of the
county court, state senate and legis
lature, the next in order will be that
of supervisor of bridges forthe county
court. He could possibly get that by
appointment.
Vote for Ward who is not chronic

THE TOWN PUMP.

A good place to feel the pulse of
civic life is at the public drinking
trough. The ebb and flow of animal
life, as it quenches it's thirst at the
public fountain gives us an estimate
of the wealth, population and pros
perity of the community; the charac-
acter and stability of all the best
people and the utility, plasuere and
hardships of it's citizens. There is
no better place to study the progress
of the community than at the town
pump.
Every village in West Virginia
should have town pump and every
city with waterworks should have a
drinking fountain where a stream of
pure running water, freely dispenses
Adams Ale to the thirsty populace.
Pure water and plenty of it is a good
community builder.
Ahat say you cntelr1isiae baai 4eas
men cf lexington to placing a drink
ing fountain at some convenient
place in the city? The cost will not
amount to much and the Progressive
will be glad to donate its share in the
erection and maintaining of public
drinking fountain. OF course it is
not needed right now, but next spring
would be the time to erect one. 1t is
really matter that should be taken
IN Cargo by the members of the civic
league.

MARY LITTLE COLD.

Mary had little cold
That started in her head,
And everywhere that Mary went
That cold was sure to spread.
1t followed her to school one day
(There wasn't any rule);
1t made the children cough and sneeze
To have that cold at school.
The teacher tried to drive it out;
She tried hard, but--kerchoo!-

For teacher caught it too.

POLITICAL POINTERS.

Why should any voter in the county
refuse to vote for r. E. Talbot for
State Senator? He is one of us. Born
and reared in this county and has al
ways been true to every trust COM
mited to his hands.
Question-What do you think of G.
w. Brandon's Indictment against the
County Court? Especially when the
Democratic member of the county
court has agreed to be personally Ii
able for 1000 of the expense of re-
viewing the action of the Circuit
court in reference to the county Jail ?
Answer Vote for j. H. Bennett.
Are you wiling to trust man in
office who has for IL years conduct
ed the office in such a maner that
nothing but praise comes from those
who know best the duties of the of
fee and the way the same is being
conducted? If so vote for CIV. Bran
don for Circuit Clerk.
Laboring men and miners what are
you going to do with Honest Bill"
Baker? Will you vote for miner, a
man who has made his living by the
sweat of his brow and who knows how
to sympathize. with you in your eff
forts to keep the wolf from the door?
If so, vote for him for clerk of the
county court on the 3rd day of No
vember.
If you want the school system of
Barbour county improved vote for Ira
L. Dadisman, for County Superinten-
dent of Free Schools. He grew up
in the county, and by his own effort
succeeded in obtaining an education,
graduating from Marshall College, at
Huntington, w. Va, the best normal
in the state and has had experience in
teaching for 10 years, the greater por-
ton of which time he taught in the
country schools of this county and has
the remainder of the time in the
graded schools of Philippi and Being
ton. He is a young man of honesty,
integrity and against whom nothing
uncomplimentary can be said. The
school sysem has become a part of
his nature. He loves it and will al
ways be found working for its best
interests.
There is not a man, woman or child
In the county that can say anything
against Aquilla t. Ward, Democratic
candidate for the Legislature from
this county. Mr.. Ward was born and
reared on the farm, was educated
in the best schools in the state and
while he is not fluent speakes and
a '.canaai gnef," VINO has baea contia-
uaiiy running Tor oi.ice at every cleo
ton, yet he has wide knowledge of
the measures that would be of bene-
fit to the residents of the county and
is well enough posted to vote in the
Legislature on matters that will be to
our best interests.

The Democratic member of the
county court has agreed to be person
ally liable for $40 of the expense of

and G. w. Brandon has agreed to be
personally liable for $50 and the costs.
Now what is the two Republican mem
bers going to do about it? The peo-
pie want the mater investigated and
we see no reason why it should not
be done. Two men should not hold
out against majority of the people
Of the county. The people demand
that something be done before $40,-
600, or $4,000 is spent of the taxpay-
ers money in the erection of new
Jail that we have no earthly use for.
