crowned the efforts of committee of
Beloit business men to raise $50, 900

ment fund which is now being raised
by the college trustees, and the time

First Omnibus,

Omnibus was an almost branl
new word in its modern sense when
Shillibeer took. it from the French in
1929. and in France the name pos
sesSed a special significance for those
who knew their history, for from 1872
to 1876 Paris had already seen regu-
lar service Of roomy public vehicles.
''carosses a cling SOUS" Only these
predecessors of the modern bus were
not "omnibus"-for all. The letters
patent which instituted them for the
benefit of middle class people laid
down that they were not to be used by
soldiers, lackeys or any other wearers
of livery or artisans and laborers.
These exclusive vehicles faded out OF
existence, and the new ones. which
were started in Paris in 1928, were
named ''omnibus" expressly to signify
their democratic character. = London

Told hx the Eyes.

Greenish, hazel and spotted eyes are
accompanied, usually, with shrewd,
quick, nervous, restless temperaments.
According to Professor Hudson, .Asiat-
les with hazel eyes are cunning and
weasel-like. Contrary to the popular
notion, persons with green eyes are
too Indifferent in passion to be at all
jealous of the opposite sex; they are,
however, frequently envious of their
own.

HENDRICKSONS

The papers of Louisville, and
in fact all the newspapers of the
Blue Grass Section, have seen
fit to take advantage of the kill
ing at -Four Mile as topic of
abuse and SANDER on the whole
Mountain Section of this State,
and some have attributed this
murder to ignorance. We admit
that a killing is a bad thing in
any State or section of a State,
but at the same time, it is not
becoming of these various papers
to jump on the whole people of
the Mountains for the acts of one
man or set of men. Some of
the papers have said that this
difficulty was very common
thing in he Mountains, and at
the same time they forget that
Persons living in glass houses
should not throw stones.' When
you come to think of it there are
more crimes committed in Louis
vile alone than there is in the
whole Mountain Section of Ken
lucky, but the papers fail to
make so much of it as they have
this one act. 1t might be prop
er to call these papers attention
to the death of little Alma Kel-
Ter, and others that we might
mention if we were so minded.
Let everybody bear in mind that
it is not our purpose to uphold or
countenance any kind of lawless
ness, but merely want to call the
papers attention to. the abuse
they place upon the whole Sec
ton for the acts of one person.

1913--1914

The year that is just turning
the corner behind us has been
one of disaster, indeed. Horror
has followed upon horror, and in
all walks of life the destroying
Grim God of Accidents and
Troubles, has been felt.
The man whocould remain a
cheerful optimist all through
the year certainly deserves an
untarnishable medal.
Early in the year Hoods swoop-
ed down upon peaceful and
thriving communities, leaving
hQthlpg but chOas and desolation
IN heir wake. Millions of dol
lars worth of property were shift
ed from one part of the map to
the other, without the slightest
notice IN advance and desolation
followed as the floods receded.
Mine disaster succeeded each
other with terrifying regularity.
and the death toll of those who
tolled that We might be warm
and that our factories might he
run, mounted day be day.
The God of Speed claimed
more than his usual mum Der of
victims, whether they were sac
rlllced IN railroad wrecks or i'm
automobile accidents.
Wars and rumors Of war prey
ed upon the lives of men and
paralyzed the nerve centers of
the earth. Even the most cratic
OF things, the weather planned
to Guido itselr. The first storm
OF the winter quickly turned in
TO a blizzard that picked hugh
vessels IN its icy arms, and hurl-
ed them one into another. and
then TO the bottom-but with
very man at his post.
Strenuous indeed has been the
year just gone, Congress has
worked day and night remodel
ing and rcconstruoting the tariff
IN addition to levying a tax
upon those who are subject t.
the income taX.
And yet, though business ha,
relapse and gone into "a period
of general unrest. Though flood |

made life everything but peace
full, YOU are still ON deck aud |
so are WE, 50 lets lool, ahead. !

us like children who come down /
safely from the attic for all sorts
of terrors Turk behind the doors
and dark corners, slam the doors
behind us, snap our fingers, and
get out into the sunlight of 1914.
Start the year with smiles.
there is no better panacea for all
known ills. A happy and prosp-
erous New Year to all our
friends.

never looks so hopeful and allur-
ing as when entered to- the se-
ductive strains of dance rhythms.
Merry making is defined by some
in terms vt horn blowing and
horse play, for one does not be-
come a grown-up merely by ac-
quiring the phyical stature Of
manhood. With others, New
Years means Il futile yielding
to treacherous enticements, with
a headache, dark brown taste,
and empty purse next day.
Certainly the New Year should
bring some message Of cheer to
all. Few people are so shut in
or so beaten down that the new
page may not be a beginning of
better things, if through all the
storms of life, they have saved
the seed of hope and purpose.

WHAT Is HUNTING?

Hunting is the promscuous search
for game for a period of forty seven
days, minus seven Sundays, out o.
each year, as a rule. the explosion Of
several barrels of powder, that is,
gun powder, and the scattering OF
innumerable shot, OF various sizes,
at the various kinds OF game.
Aman, usually a young man, starts
out in the morning with a gun, his
iavorite bird dog. and as many
Others as will follow, in search OF
quail and rabbits, mostly quail, and
he kills quail and rabbits, mostly
rabbits, after walking a distance of
about several miles to be exact. y
But it is rather strange that no one
will believe a hunting story, even
when a minister speaks of hunting,
he does not state what he killed.
lest he be classed as a hunter. The
man who says he kills most usually
kills the least amount of game, and
when a man tells another man, that
is hunting men, the other says "All
men are liars except you and me and
have some doubts about you," but
nevertheless hunting is a great sport,
and most everyone enjoys a nice
hunt, aud when he hunts all day
with nothing to eat. except raw
turuips, he comes in home about dark
DR. a little after, tired and hungry,
wen worse than hungry, sick. and
AN eat up everything on the place,
lie feels as if he would not care TO

quail and eight rabbits and is as '
ired as usual. The various churches :

THE DYING YEAR

The last hours of 1913 are with
us. To a great many people
they are no different from any
other old hours. Nevertheless.
the current of time is bearing
va all along, and life's scenery
changes as all drift out toward
the eternal sea.
New Years is not necessarily
sad. Ii does not principa liz
mean that so much of life is
gone. and that the rest should
be boarded as a miser gloats over
his coins. No man gets the best
of life at either extreme. He
must be neither a Spendthrift of
his days, nor on the other hand
should he watch their passing
with any stingy cupidity of life.
