Tolu Farmers Club.

The Tolu Farmers Club met
March Slst, 1915, at the school
building. We had Mr.. Bird with
us, and he certa inly gave us a
very interesting and instructive
talk on the subject of Corn
Growing" and as that is our
principal crop, he had no trouble
in maintaining order.
The two last dry seasons have
put the farmers in a frame of
mind to try a change; hence we
think Mr.. Bird will have nc
trouble in getting the ear of ali
the farmers in this section.

A Preacher Severely Boxed.

Recently Pastor R. A. LaRue
moved to Salem. that he might
efficiently serve the churehe
there and at Pinckneyville. He
had scarcely arranged things and
begun to feel at home. when
boxes began to come in filled
with the good things a preacher
and family need most: meat,
beans, peas, parsnips, turnips,
corn, oats. flakes, sour and sweet
pickles, pepper, sugar. coffee,
chickens, eggs, milk, butter. ap.
Piles, peaches, pears. plums,
gooseberries, damsons, preserves
jelly, jam, tomatoes. onions, nuts,
toilet soap, enamel-ware. book,
table.scarf and many tokens of
esteem, welcome, goodwill and
the pastor feels such a people
deserve a great ministry of the
gospel, and humbled by his un-
worthiness. covets their highest
development in the Divine Life.
So "as much as in me is," | am
ready to preach the gospel to
them that are in Salem.
"Blest be tie that binds.
Our hearts in Christian love,
The fellowship Of kindred minds,
Is like that from above.
Before our Fathers throne,
We pour our ardent prayers;
Our fears. our hopes, our aims
are one,
Our comforts and our cares.
We share our mutual woes.
Our mutual burdens bear;
And often for each other flows
The sympathizing tear"

FOR STATEWIDE
PROHIBITION.
Beckham And 0'Rear To Stump
The State For Statewide
Prohibition.
Hon. T.. c. 0'Rear,
Frankfort, Ky.
Ny dear Sir

My dear Sir
1t has become evident to all in.
telligent observers of political
conditions in Kentucky in the
last few months, that the com.
bined )iquor interests Of the
State are exerting their utmost
power to influence and control
the policies Of both political par
ties, with a view to preventing
the next General Assembly from
submitting to the people of the
State a Constitutional amend
ment for State wide prohibition.
As you know the liquor interests
are non.partizan. or rather BIZ
partizan. in their work. and are
utterly indifferent to the success
Of either party. so long as their
purposes may be accomplished.
They are. therefore, seeking in
the coming campaign to control
the two parties. both in the Au-
gust primary and in the Novem-
b,r election.
As one Of the leaders in your
party who has always upheld
the temperance cause and helped
in its work. we are writing you
TO earnestly request that you
Join with Senator Beckham in q
series of addresses. to place be-
fore the people of the State these
questions in their proper light.
We believe that the people OF
Kentucky are entitled TO a vote
upon this important question,
and that no political party should
submit to the domination OF the
liquor interests and refuse t
grant the people this just privil
ege.
We are writing a similar lettel
TO Senator Beckham. and W,
earnestly hope for an early ant
favorable response from both o.
you. Sincerely yours,
n. A. Palmer,
State Superintendent.

heartily enjoyed by all. These
men told Of some OF the bardships
endured and of the fascination OF
the work. They could not explain,
bet said with them it was once II

they Simply could not tear them
selves away. t,ach and every one
OF these men said it was just as
impossible for them to permit a
fire alarm to go unanswered i'll
some way as it was to resist the
call of distress.
The refreshments consisted OF
numerous things to eat and lit
tie something TO keep it from
sticking in ones throat. Every one
enjoyed the feast and will long re-
member the fire boys banquet.
There was excellent music by a
stringed band and after the feast
some of the boys enjoyed stag
dance.
