Claude Nicely PrinCip ! e
Speaker in defense Day"
Exercises.

Two years compulsory military
training for all high school students
who are physically able, and one
years enlistment in the army with
pay not less than 81 per day were
advocated as cures for the lack of
military preparedness by Claude
Nicely in his address at the Defense
Day" exercises given Monday night
by the Army and Navy union at their
hall.
Mr.. Nicely, who delivered the prin-
cipal speech Of the evening", ridiculed
Henry Ford and William Jennings
Bryan for their pacifist ideas. He
urged military preparedness as one
Of the necessities for the welfare of
the United states.
Col. William Hoyne Of NOtre Dame
gave a short talk in which he de-
scribed the system of national de-
Tense used in Switzerland. Capt.
Charles Calvert presided at the meet
ing. Patriotic songs were sung by
the audience. and the Army and Ma
Wy union orchestra furnished several
numbers.
Mr.. Nicely said in part: "1776 had
it's tories and its Benedict Arnold;
1861 had its copperheads and its Val

ofScotland by

"Bonny Briar Bush" the oldest
and best known story OF Scotland,
was told last night by DR.. w. r.
Wedderspoon at the First NJ. +.
church. DR.. Wedderspoon is the
pastor OF the Foundry VI. +. church
OF Washington. ID. G..
Dr. Wedderspoon was brought to
the city through the efforts OF the
brotherhood Of the First church
which entertained with a dinner at
$50 o'clock i'm the evening preced-
ing the address. The dinner was
attended by 135 men OF the brother
hood
AS he is well acquainted with
Scotland and its dialect. he very ably
told the story which is familiar 10
every Scotchman as not only the
d. ost beautiful but the most stirring
and touching one that is connected
with their country.
Teacher Introduced
The story is laid in the heart OF
Scotland at a country village which
is called Drom-tok-te and the first
character 10 be introduced is the
N I'll AlONl III AtdGltI hN the AlAAAt
school whose name is DOmsey.
Domsey delights in teaching at
this little school and cares for moth
ing for the wider ambitions as an
instructor at "a university When
asked as 10 why he does not go 10
q larger school or university he tells
the people that he likes his little
school and begins TO count up the
many little folk that he has sent out
into the world who have become
preachers. instructors and useful
men . the country. This is his am
bltion-tO send the little noun
taineers out into the world to be-
come good men and women.
Little George Howe is chosen by
Domsey to leave the school and go

his parents about the proposition he
finds that they have no funds with
which 10 care for him while at

Later he is lain TO the bonny briar
bush where the roses grow. Twenty
years later his mother dies.
In the meantime a new preacher
comes to the village and after get
ting into considerable trouble with
the oldest and most stern elders OF
the church he is only consoled by
the words Of Georges mother.

stricken from the family Bible and

Everybody knows who Jim
Brown is and where he lives in
this county none better to be
found anywhere. He was good
boy and made good man. he
never had to move to town, but a
town grew up around him The
railroad established Brady and
James e Brown was appointed
rail road agent and has held the
Office ever since. He is also, the
Postmaster, cotton weigher, mer
chant and runs a public gin, be-
sides is farmer He has been
a very busy man all of his life
and business thrust upon him
gave him practical, business
education. The common schools
of his day in his section were
very limited in facilities and ad.
vantages, but being educated in
the great school Of the world,
prepared him to discharge many
and vaiied business matters. He
is a man that has stood for law
and decency all his life, and pis
life and character is looked up.
on as model. His influence has
always been Tor the, right and
good of the country. He wishes
to have the people Of the county
to take IN consideration his
claims, and trusts that he will be
found IN all respects worthy Of
their votes in the primary elec-
ton next Summer He ran for
the same position three years
ago and the fiatering vote that
ne then received, encourages
him to believe that he will reach
the coveted position. None will
appreciate the support of the
dear people more than Mr..
Brown, and We are Of the opin-
ION that If elected he would make
a splendid sheriff in every par
ticular. He is before you and
trusts that in due time that: he
will have the privilege and great
pleasure of submitting to you
personally his claims.
