games freely, and work off SUI
perfiuous energy, were rarely

In the larger cities the modern
playground, with a tangle of
yelling kidlets, is a sight to do a
wholesome hearted person good.
The boy who is chasing a base
ball is not robbing fruit trees
nor loafing on the street corners.
A playground entertaining a
large crowd Of children does not
fully serve its mission unless
carefully supervised by some
competent person. The average
boy gets altogether too much fun
from tormenting SOMEBODY under
his size. Also the average crowd
of 12-year-olds is very far from
ready for self-government.

a village can merely open up q

THE NEXT DRY DRIVE.

The prohibitionists have decid-
ed that the time has come to
leave off merely asking and to
demand what they want. The
success which the dry movement
has met in practically all the
states has convinced the church
people, who make up a majority
of the dry forces, that they can
have their way if they absolutely
insist upon it. Nothing is more
certain than that Kentucky will
be added to the prohibition col.
umn this year. The sentiment
is so pronounced that both the
dominant parties will nominate
pronounced Statewide candi
dates, and no one doubts that the
people VIII overWhelmlngly adop
the prohibition amendment wher
submitted to them.
Now the next drive is to be fol

Puerile Diplomacy.

Whenever you hear a fellow
American say-as many are fond
of saying-that we have no dip
lomats you can point to the Ger
man Ambassador at Washington
as an example of puerile diplo-
macy unmatched in the annals of
American diplomacy. He has
been treated by the Secretary of
State as if he were a peevish
child. In his communication to
the American Government he
thought as a child" He is a
little man who can not grow up
like little men in knickerbockers
hereabout, and become a full sized
man. State Journal.

GIVE THE kids" CHANCE.

Up to a few years ago, it new
err occurred to old people that
Young America needs place to
play in. 1t is commonly suppos-
ed that a live boy would find plen-
ty of amusement in selling news
papers, running errands, or hoe
ing the back yard garden. If he
must have his game of ball once
in awhile, there was a street or
some ones vacant lot.
AS a matter of fact it often
happens, even in the country
town, that there was no place
where a set of boys could play a
game of ball without being order
ed to quit.
Most American towns were laid
out with no provision for the
children. There was ample fore
sight for anything in which mon.
ey could be made. Railroads and
factories never lacked opportuni-
ties. Land was often given to
attract them. But the cases
where land was given where
young people could play their

D. BOONE TYRA ANNOUNCES.

In another column of the CoU.
RIER appears the announcement
of D. Boone Tyra, Of Saltwater,
Wolfe county, as a candidate for
Representative from the Morgan
Wolfe district, subject to the ac-
ton of the democratic primary.
Boone Tyra was born and rear
ed on a farm on Holly creek in
Wolfe county, and was reared by
Christian parents, who instilled
into his mind early in life the
principles Of honesty and moral.
ty, which make for the better
ment of society. He was edu-
Gated in the county, and when
he was a small boy showed a ca
pacity to learn and do things sell
dom seen where no more favor
able conditions existed. Early
in life he had the misfortune to
lose one arm, and manned in this
manner he has fought his way
up from poverty to a position OF
independence as a farmer and
business man in many lines. He
is man of talent and tact and is
successful in all his undertakings.
No man in. this country has ever
risen so fast in the world with as
many handicaps to hinder. He
has an easy grasp of public ques-
tons, and is well informed along
the lines of advanced farming
and new methods of doing things.
He is one Of the best farmers in
his section of the State and has
made the needs of the farmer a
special study and knows what
will be to the best interest of the
producing masses. He is in
hearty symathy with the poor
man, and is a great favorite with
the laboring classes, who will
rally to his support. He is a
sterling democrat of the old
school and a fighter who is fear
ed by the common enemy. He
has introduced more improved
farming machinery in his section
than any other man, and is al
ways on the lookout for the best
interests of the farmer. He is a
sober, Industrious and honest
man and would make a good Rep.
resentative.
We commend his claims to the
consideration of the democrats OF
the district.

Sugar VS.. Tobacco.

A London newspaper notes that
General Joffre, at the head of the
French army, is not much of a
smoker, but is in the habit of
munching sugar, of which he car
ries a small supply with him The
theory is growing that sweets are
a remedy, both prompt and sure,
for fatigue. And that is probably
the explanation of the rise of the
chocolate industry, in which at
least several good sized fortunes
have been made in Europe and
America. 1t also explains, in
part, the success of the chain of
candy stores, no doubt. But it

opens a wide field for sugar in the
capacity of both food and drink.
Scientific experiments prove that
sugar gives quickly-within a few
hours AN increment of physical
power ranging from 60 per cent
to rs per cent. The jam industry
Of Great Britain, which country
consumes so much of the sugar
imports, is part Of the worlds
growing desire for sweet in food.

widow would be { of what q widow of an
official with royal appointment would be en-
titled to, and as Mr.. Nelson's salary etc.

swered, that they did not want any inspector

The last proposal concerning the cemetery
is taken up this year, because the amount
voted for last year had not as yet been used.
His Excellency recommended both proposals

2nd Member for Christiansted Town
(CaneQatd) would like very much to hear
the reasons for the appointment of this
kind of sanitary Inspector, The duty Of q
sanitary inspector of the type Indicated
could very we'll be done by the Police.

OF the community, a lew W6eus III d ulsIahC

that the sanitary Inspector simply was for
the purpose of driving uuclean people out of
town? This duty could very wei be done
by the police or the gendarmes. Supplying
