|eisa you can think of is drawing
as many people from the farms
to the towns and cities today as
the Superior facilities Of the city
schools. Self respecting, ambi-
tious people naturally gravi-
tate towards good educational
advantages for their children.
The better class of tenants-the
ones the landlord wants-are no
exceptions to this rule. They
may not be able to keep their
children in school all the time,
but they are deeply concerned
about their training AID want
them to have the best advantages
procurable when they are in
school.
We cannot help feeling that
from the landlords standpoint
the present idea of economy now
very general, In the handling of
tenant-operated farms is funda-
mentally wrong. A very large
percentage of landlords seem to
think that they cannot afford to
put up good, comforta BILE houses
on theiI places ana to keep up
the Improvements: it costs too
much. Suppose the manager of
a business concern-e factory,
for instance should conclude
that he could not afford to go to
the expense Of keeping up some
important part Of the esta blish-
ment, and stop putting money
into it; how long do you suppose
that business would continue to
run? The business concerns that
make money are those that are
kept up; and the same is true in
equally as great degree of
farms. Look around you and
see if you do not see every where
confirmation of this statement.
Urquestionably, we think, more
money put iEto better houses
and improvements, better schools
and better roads would be the
best investment that Southern
landlords could possibly make.
And the most encouraging
feature of the situation is. that
it can be handled by the land
lord as an individual proposition.
We are discussing it here in an
abstract, collective way; but
any man can change from the
present system to O long-lease
system of tenantry whether his
neighbors join in helping him in
making tine change or not. By
providing better accommoda-
tlons he can get the best tenants,
and ne can keep them as long as
he wants them.
WHAT THE TENANT MUST DO
But the landlord cannot do it
all and must rot be expected to
do so. The tenant must do his
part. He must quit his everlast-
ing rowing, find him d suita BILE
location and settle down, and
then 60 to work to make a home
of his rented place and perma-
nent, su bstantial citizens of him
self and wife and children. We

VINO are never satisfied, who are
forever pulling about from place
to place, searching for some
fab bled paradise where oppoituni-
ty and money grows on trees.
Such men instead of finding the
best opportunities, are Away
missing Them and getting the
very worst of the deal, The best
places are naturally occupied by
men who are stayers; AMI the
perpetual movers have simply to
take what is left, whatever that
may be. Not only this. but TIE

Russia should obtain sufficient equip

that Germany would be brought to
the pass of urgently seeking terms
Of peace we'll before the end of 1916.
But il the Allies are not wiling to
consider terms that Germany and
Austria could entertain as basis
for negotiations. it would further
seem likely that the war might be
prolonged for still another year,
making total war period Of three
years. The prospect is a sad and
painful one to all who have manag-
ed to keep from becoming hardened
TO the terrible facts and incidents Of
the struggle. As yet. the fighting
governments are sustained by their

urgent demand for peace. The spirit
of hostility is so dominant in the

Miss Gray's musical career began

a recital to an audience Of 500 peo-

the age of eleven Miss Gray was the
youngest to ever receive the offer of
the cap and gown from the musical
department of the University of the
Pacific.
Her violin is one of finest speci-
mems of the old cremonas. 1t was
made in 1715, and is in perfect con.

at $4,000.

There is no reason why Judge
Thomas should not reflect credit on

members OF the bench. Heis young,

The state was then divided into
only three appellate districts. In 1873.
Judge Thomas Henry Hines, Of
Bowling Green. was selected over
Judge Caswell Bennett, Judge
Sweeney and Judge Williams. In
those days conventions were held in
the different counties on different
days, and the candidates made it a
point to be at the county seat on the
day Of the convention. 1t was ap-
parent before the day of the general
convention that Judge Hines had
won. Judge Bennett succeeded
Judge Hines, was reelected, and
died in Office. Governor Brown ap-
pointed Judge |. M. Quigley. of Pa.

term on the bench was marked by
many brilliant decisions. He did
not offer for election.
Judge John R. Grace was elected
Judge in 1894. the number having by
that time been increased to seven.

Mortgages-Farmer Must Pay

There are too many farms heavily

uncertainties, and too much risk taken
with single crops. The very source
Of good income on the farm-the poul-

The time has come IL the farmer

SMALL MOTOR FOR DENTISTS
Does Away With Rather Cumbersome
Material Which Must at Present
Be Used.

An electric motor. even in small
sizes. is quite heavy for the power 1t
yields. For this reason dentists have
been using a motor mounted on a
bracket and connected by flexible
shaft with the point of application of
power. Recently, however, minia-
ture electric motor has been devised
for the dentists use which is SO small
and weighs SO little that it may be
connected directly to the dental
chucks and used as a hand tool, thus
doing away with the cumbersome uni
versal shaft. In place Of the shaft .
light electric cord connects the motor
with a lamp socket. The motor is
one of the smallest ever made for
commercial use. Its weight is but five
and one-quarter ounces. and it is one
and three-quarter inches long by one
and one-quarter inches in diameter
1t uses only IL watts and operates
at a speed of $4,000 revolutions per
minute.
