to do this, the number OF failures can
be greatly minimized. Young people
must have some time for sociability,
but they should learn that life has

The public Is now in such a
state of mind, that it is not sur.
prised at anything that happens
IN Mexico. One thing is certain,
and that is that Huerta Will not
he the ruler of Mexico for many
more days. Huerta has been
sustained and supported largely
by the Roma" Catholic church,
and as General villa has init.
mated that he expects to hang
every Catholic priest and bishop
that is left when he takes the
CITY of Mexico, and as it appears
that Villa will be able to capture
Mexico City in a short time, it
will be seen that Huerta and his
Catholic machine are III desper-
ate situation. The threat on the
part of General Villa against the
Catholic dignItaries is reported
IN the dispatches as being based
on the fact that the Catholic
church has furnished many mil
lions of dollars to the Huerta
.sseyernWsnt. This is probably
szySe, bM General Villa realizes
that the Catholic priests and bish-
ops in Mexico have designedly
kept the working classes in ig-
norance and poverty so that the
few could own the many as help
less slaves. All the revolution
lists are particularly bitter against
the priests and bishops, very
much like the French peasants
were when they brought on the
great French revolution of 1889
IN which they hung ii priest on
one side Of II lamp post and a
feudal lord or nObleman on the
other side, holding both equally
responsible for the poverty and
misery existing at that time in
France. Mexico is much like
france in 1889, suffering from the
same identical causes, the corrup-
ton and rottenness of the church
and state.

MOUNTA|NEERS
CARRY COFF|NS
ON THEIR TRIPS
Inhabitants Of Eastern Kentucky
Take No Chances When Trav-
cling in Rough Country.

COLUMBIA, MO, Jan. 10.-To live
in community which has never had
Christmas tree, has no wagons and
no roads except creek bottoms, whose
old people carry their black covered
homemade collins around with them
when they go on long visit, is novel,
at least.
Miss Orpha Moore has for the last
two years worked In such a comma
nifty. She is employed by the South
ern Presbyterian Home Mission Board
to teach in one of their schools in tn ;
mountains of Eastern Kentucky.
The people in this community At
one time owned both their timber AMI
coal They sold the coal rights yea IS
ago for So or SO an acre. They have
cut the timber over S. now they are
very poor.
"One of the most interesting ex-
perlences | have had" said Miss
Moore, occurred at Christmas time
last year. | found that out of so chill
dren in Sunday school only two had
ever seen Christmas tree. So We
fixed up one of native holly, decorated
1t with tinsel and popcorn, and put on
1t for everyone & bag of candy and
for the children little toys. On Christ
mas Day one little fellow, who was
to say a piece, told US that he didn'
have time because he had to watch
the tree.
Aged Woman Likes Tree.
odd Aunt Ruth, 10 years old, said
next day it was the 'beautifulest {
thing she had ever seen, and that the
most beautiful things of all were the
dolls with the hats on. l found out
by Questioning that she had never
owned a doll in her life ! diffidently
asked her if she would like to have
one. She was overjoyed and sat IN
my rocking chair until she had rocked
herself and the doll to sleep.
I'VE find the people are eager to
learn. The children are sent to school
regularly, and are. as would be ex-
pected, as bright as children any
where.
Many interesting Traits.
The people have many interesting
traits. They are very poor, but very
generous. What they have they
would rather share than keep.
The people are backward, because
they have no transportation. There
are no roads, not even bridle PATHS.
Communication is by creek bottoms
as far as possible. and over the hill
tops when necessary.
THE women lives ar very hard
They marry very young and begin 10
break at 80. One of my friends told
me that his wife had little more to
hope for now, that she was so old
found out that she was 80. The
women work with the men in the
fields and often take complete care OF
the hoe crops, while the men, at a
starving wage, dig out coal that once
belonged to them"
