Return Engagement
Of Lyceum Minstrels.

A treat in store for local people,
that should not be missed, is special
return engagement of the Lyceum
Minstrels, on Saturday night in St.
Andrews Hall, Lambertville.
1t will be remembered that
this company recently appeared in
the same place and was pronounced
by all in attendance to be one of the
finest productions that has ever been
seen in this city.
The costume which is worn by N.
Howard Mills, in the travesty dance
on Gaby Desly's and Harry Pilcer's
famous Apache Dance" is said to
be a thing of beauty and should be
of especial interest to the ladies.

THINGS TO REMEMBER

Pure religion and indebted be-
fore God and the Father Is this, 10
visit the fatherless and widows in
their affection; and 10 keep him
self unspotted before the world. =
James 4 :27.
If any Of you lack wisdom let him
ask Of God, that giveth TO all men
literally, and upbraideth not; and
IL shall be given him. - James
is.
Remember now thy Creator in the
days OF your youth, while the evil
days come not, nor the years draw
nigh, when thou shalt say, I have
no pleasure in them. - Eccl. 1874.
Rejoice, o young man, in thy
youth: and let thy heart cheer thee
in the days Of thy youth, and walk
in the ways OF thine heart, and in
the sight Of thine eyes; but know
thou, that for all these things, God
will bring thee into judgment,
therefore put away sorrow from thy
heart and put away evil from thy
flesh. - Eccl. ff:9, 10.

HEALTH NEWS ISSUED BY THE
UNITED STATES PUBLIC
HEALTH SERVICE

The United States Public Health
Service and the various health agen-
cies OF this country are working TO
prolong the average duration OF life.
In this they are obeying the desire
for existence which is the strong
est instinct OF mankind. Only
small proportion Of the human race
rounds out its tour OF duty on this
earth. Some people are born with
poor bodies which they treat well.
Barring accidents they can live TO
a ripe old age. Some people are
born with good bodies which they
treat badly and some people are
born with poor bodies which they
treat badly. They don't last long.
IL is recorded that in Yorkshire in
1901, Henry jenkins was born. He
died in 1910, cut Off at the age Of
1859. He remembered well the battle
Of Flodden Field. This occurred in
1913, when he was ~ years Of age.
The Register Of Chancery and other
courts show the administration Of
oaths TO him fl0 years prior to his
death. He gave deposition as wit
ness when he was 1877. In his young
manhood, when he was little over
100, he was remarkable swimmer.
The term "old age" too frequently
is another name for the falling due
Of the debts Of youth. Over-eating,
over-driking, over-playing, over
working, these are drafts on the
bank Of Nature which sooner or
later must be met. Sometimes the
day of reckoning can be put of
little bit, but Dame Nature will not
be wheedled out Of her claim.
The remarkable thing about Henry
Jenkins is the fact that he has left
behind him no rules Of living which
would enable one TO duplicate his
feat. In this he showed great self
repression. As a matter of fact
there is no royal road to old age
and it is not to be attained by
particular dietary or regimen OF
life. Perhaps the best rule may be
expressed in one word, "Modera-
ton" Moderation in food, moder-
alton in drink, moderation in the
joys and worries OF life, moderation
in work, moderation in recreation,
equanimity of the mind. the soul
and the body. These make for long
tenure of life.

A LETTER FROM THE NEWLY
ELECTED JUNIOR vICE-C0M-
MANDER-1N-CHIEF OF THE
q A. n. OF ORR NATION

Washington ID. G., Oct. 2, 1915.
Dear Citizen Readers:
Many Of you who will learn
through the papers about the great
q. A. r. Encampment held here
this week, the splendid parade OF
Wednesday. ETC. will want TO know
more about my race for a high Ma
tional Office.
The Kentucky Encampment had
Endorsed me for Junior vice-Com-
mander-in-Chief, the third place
in point OF rank, in the q. A. r. OF
the Nation. There were several
candidates. Having decided TO try
for the Office put up the best
fight could do in an honorable
way, by sending out printed bills
and writing letters TO every State.
II turned out TO be the most lively
contest in the Encampment Conven-
ton, which occupied Thursday and
Friday. gave my time and strength
largely TO the management Of the
campaign. There was this obstacle,
- that a past Department Com
mander Of Kentucky was honored
with this office only three years
ago. After the election Of captain
+. r. Monfort, Of Cincinnati, as Com
mander-in-Chief. there was the ad-
ded drawback that I lived only 1870
miles from him.
When the election came on Friday
afternoon, five candidates were
placed in nomination. Two OF these.
!. s. Litzburg. Of Delaware. and C.
II. Welch. Of Oregon, had but little
support. On the first ballot the
vote OF the others was as follows:
l. G.. Everest. OF Illinois, iS3
f. X. Russ. Of Louisiana. - 253.
LeVant Dodge. of KentuckyI3ii.
Captain Everest was then with
drawn: and on the roll-call of
states. for the second ballot. I de-
fcated our good cOmrade. Russ. now
for the sixth time Commander Of
the Department Of Louisiana and
Mississippi. by majority of i9i.
Apparently the result Of this lively
campaign indicates either that
stand we'll with the G. A. r. men
who go 10 our National Conventions.
or that | managed my canvass with
some skill. I wonder which I can
refer to with the less appearance of
vanity!
The National Convention Of the
Woman's Relief Corps occupied the
same two days. Mrs. Dodge was
member Of the National Executive
Board. and was busily engaged in
w. r. C. business. On the floor Of
their convention she made an ap-
peal for aid TO needy students who
seek education at Berea. She won
hearty applause, and secured an
appropriation for one hundred dol
lars for scholarship in Berea Col
lege.

THINGS TO FORGET

II you see a tall fellow ahead Of a
crowd,
A leader OF men, marching fearless
and proud,
And you know Of tale whose mere
telling aloud
Would cause his proud head TO in
anguish be bowed.
It's a pretty good plan to forget it.
II you know Of a skeleton hidden
away
In a closet, and guarded, and kept
from the day
In the dark: and whose showing,
whose sudden display,
Would cause grief and sorrow and
lifelong dismay,
It's a pretty good plan 10 forget it.
II you know Of a thing that will
darken the joy
OF man or a woman, a girl or a
boy,
That will wipe out a smile or the
least way annoy
A fellow, or cause any gladness to
cloy,
It's pretty good plan to forget it.

FOR A NATIONAL CHILD LABOR

I'VE need national law that will

WEIGHING THE BABY

In the October Woman's Home
Companion we find the following is
a simple, but accurate scheme, de-
vised by contributor, for weighing
a baby:
II have so often been amazed to
hear people trying to devise a way
to weigh the baby - tying him in a
towel, and using various devices.
Why not step on the scales with
the baby in your arms, and then
without him? The difference is the
baby's weight. Like many other
things, 1T is easy when you know
how"

ing, Secretary Vaughn presided.
Professor +. r. Dizney. Of Evarts,
Ky, spoke on the Conditions and
Progress In Harlan County" Miss
Collette told very interesting story
Of her social-settlement work at
Carey, Ky. Professor John F. Smith
treated the theme "The Country
Church and School Problem" Pro-
fessor Smith has had wide exper-
fence in the Appalachian Mountains
and spoke interestingly and in
structively. He told OF the econ
omic outlook OF the mountains, OF
the increasing population, Of the
decreasing resources. and OF the ne
cessity Of cooperation between the

A "BEREA" IN SOUTH AMERICA

The plan for establishing a Be-
rea in South America. which had
its inception with members OF the
Student Volunteer Movement, is be-
ing developed persistently. During
the year plans have been matured
for q Congress OF Christian Work in
Latin America which will be held
in Panama, February next. This
will be followed by series OF re-
gional conferences, nine in number,
covering all the field Of Latin
America.
Berea people, old students, are
amongst the prime movers for this
work. A series Of large maps are
being prepared by A. Whittemore
Boggs, who is assisted by Louis Kar-
nosh, both working under the di-
rection OF Professor Beach, OF Yale.
The Berea people who are especial
ly interested in addition TO those
named are Messrs. Dawson, Imrie.
the Lichtwardt brothers, Todd, Miss
Porter, and Mr.. Crouch.
The particular aim OF the ex-
Berea students is TO establish a
mission school, one or more, which
shall do for the young people OF
Latin America what Berea is doing
for Appalachian America. Tall oaks
from little acorns grow.

West TO illustrate the different
points. At the close OF the hour ev-
cry one felt that he had a new con-
ception OF what il really means to

certain point.
ut is true, of course, that poverty
makes II necessary for some children
to go TO work before they are 10.
I think IL might be advisable 10
permit exemptions TO the i6-year
limit for such children who are over
~ and are declared physically NJ
for work by a physician. Cases OF
actual poverty are not very numer-
Gus, however. Many children are
sent TO work because their parents
are not poor, but avaricious."
