The Power Of Advertising.

The influence of advertising is clear
ly visible in the homes and habits of
the farmers, and the advertising col
umns of the press are making their
imprint upon the lives of our people,
The farmer possesses the things that
are best advertised.
The farmer is entitled to all the
advantages and deserves all the lux
uries of life. We need more art, sci
ence and useful facilities on the
farms, and many homes and farms
are well balanced in this respect, but
the advertiser can render a service
by teaching the advantages of modern
equipment throughout the columns of
the rural press.
The review. [volume] (High Point, N.C.) 1908-19??, 1915-01-28
A Noble Task.

In too many instances the country
papers mimic the city press by CIV
ing prominence to scandals, accidents
and political agitation. The new
rural civilization has placed upon the
"ural press renewed responsibilities,
md enlarged possibilities for useful
ess. 1t cannot perform it's mission
% agriculture by. recording the frail-
ties, the mishaps and inordinate am
billions of humanity, or by filling it's
columns with the echoes of the strug-
giles of busy streets, or by enchanting
stories of city life which lure our
children from the farm.
1t has a higher and nobler task.
Too often the pages of the city dailies
bristle with the struggle of ambitious
men in their wild lust for power, and
many times the flames of personal
conflict scar the tender buds of new
civilization and illuminate the path
way to destruction. The rural press
is the governing power of public senti-
ment and must hold steadfast to
principle and keep the ship of state
in the roadstead of progress. The
rural press can best serve the inter-
ests of the farmers by applying it's
energies to the solution of problems
affecting the local community. It
must stem the mighty life current
that is moving from the farm to the
cities, sweeping before it thousand
boys and girls per day. It has to deal
with the fundamental problems of
civilization at their fountain head. It's
mission is to direct growth, teach ef-
f1ciency and mold the intellectual life
of the country, placing before the pub
lie the daily problems of the farmers
and giving first attention to the leg
tslative, cooperative, educational and
social needs of the agricultural classes
within it's respective community.

Why Not Smile?

Are you angry? Is your lip cracked?
Are you afraid of wrinkles? Are you
suffering from an ingrowing grouch7
lone of them? Then why don't you
smile? History tells us of men who
Train themselves not to smile, because
.hey walt stern expression of coun-
tenance. The savages also pride them
selves On not showing any emotion,
Have you noticed in the photographs,
that the mothers of the war heroes Of
Europe are not smiling? Neither are
the generals who are doing the killing.
Only the heroes themselves are smIl-
ing. A hard and stern expression does
not Indicate good heart nor Il clear
conscience. 4 thief seldom smiles.
The woman of the streets smiles with
her lips, but her eyes are hard and
cold. The poverty stricken man on the
street who begs for d dime, sends his
plea direct to your heart if his appei
is accompanied by a smile. Only the
failures OF life never smile. A smile
is the cry of the sentry of the soul

Lee Comes Out For The Ticket.

Senator Blair Lee has declared his
readiness to support the Democratic
ticket. The senator sounds a note of
warning which is in effect that unless
the party adopts platform. the
planks in which he outlines, the candi-
dates will not have the support Of the
Independent Democrats. which support
is vital to the success of the ticket.
A feature of the statement is the
Senator's recommendation that the
envelope system of voting be changed
and the regular ballot used as in Balti-
more city.
This change was advocated by Mr..
Harrington during his campaign. but it
has always been believed that Senator
Lee adhered to the present method
Under the circumstances. it is clear
that the party is practically unanimous
for the change. experience having
shown that the principle was bad and
its practical workings worse.
The most serious charge brought
against the envelope system was that
it made bribery and coercion easy.
Under it, it was simple matter to
mark a ticket on the outside and make
certain that the voter had placed it in
the envelope and deposited it in the
ballot box by requiring him to bring
out with him the ballot that had been
given him by the election official. Thus
bribery and coercion could be practiced
readily, and with little chance of detec-
ton.
Following is the statement OF the
Senator which he prepared:
l will support the Democratic state
and local ticket, as nominated, anc
urge all my friends to do SO likewise,
and thus uphold the rule of the major
ity, which is the essential feature OF
the primary election law.
1t Is vital to the success of the party
this fall to secure the support OF the
independent Democrats in the State.
and for that purpose the platform
should contain, among others, clear
planks in favor of:
l. Home rule for Baltimore city and
the counties alike.
2. Extension of the limits of the
city, to include the entire harbor and
the thickly settled suburbs, which are
in reality an overflow of the city.
8. A plank providing for doing away
with unnecessary Offices and useless
expenses in the state government.
4. A systematic method of making
appropriations by the budget system.
5. Placing the appointing power now
vested in the Board of Public Works in
the governor alone.

ent primary election law, with two

In September, the silo was filled.

burned out A stave stlo which stood
around the corner Of the barn was
destroyed. The column of silage can
b seen standing to the right Of the

G. N. Herried. c. N. Harris, Col.

A. l.. Ward, all prominent Aberdeen
capitalists, have decided to ask other

the burden Of maintaining the public

reaches a point where it will meet tx
penses and return a profit. Accordingly
a temporary receiver will be asked for
the corporation, but the street a ser
vice will be maintained, and an ar
rangement will be made to enable Alb
erdeen citizens to take stock In the
company and wait for better times for
their dividends.
The value of the franchise, under
which service must be maintained. is

the property in local hands. 1t was
with this end in view that the directors
decided TO authorize President Herreid
