CUTE MRS. DOBIE
PUZZLED AT FUSS
But We're Welded" She Says,
land | Can't See Why
Folks COMPLAIN"

Eve just thought it would be packs
of fun" said Ruth Brewster Dobie, at
her grandfather's home, in Bayshore,
yesterday afternoon, in speaking Of Eer
marriage to Duncan A. Dobie, jr., a
Columbia student.
Little Mrs. Dobie's gray eyes danced
happily as she spoke. But suddenly she
stopped smiling and said: "Oh, IL we
had only known what a terrible lot of
trouble it would make! suppose if we
had thought about it first we might
have had things little different. Any
way, we would have invited mamma and
Duncan's father. But. oh, mamma feels
so hurt that we didn't ask her!
THE Rev. Herbert W. Hunter, a
Methodist minister, and ms wife and
three children were staying with me as
my chaperons at the bungalow at Lone
lyville Beach while mother was away,
Duncan came down for the weekend
and we were out canoeing. We have
been engaged since January 20.
Duncan and | decided it would be
great to get married right away. We

OF course, we knew DR.. Dobie didn't
want Duncan to marry until he was
about thirty-fve; but then I'd be an
old woman. | don't see what right any
one had to complain. But we're mar
ried now, anyway. We had intended
keeping it a secret until Duncan was
all started in business and we were
ready to go to Housekeeping.
well, we hauled the little organ
from the church out to the pier and we
were married. Right after the wedding
we went canoeing and had the most
glorious time. Part of our honeymoon
we spent on my Uncle Harry Brewster
yacht, the Progressing, with my cousin
Alma for chaperon.
at isn't true that mother turned us
out of the bungalow. We could have
stayed there as long as we wanted 70.
only Duncan was anxious to get to
work. We intended to be scientific
farmers, but DR.. Dobie won't let US
now, suppose. Duncan isn't going
back to college and I'm not going to fin

He is going to work and | am going TO

Nor verse that is free; and the booming of cars
That get his they romp DER the track
Going somewhere other, and then coming back.
He doesn't like tennis golf, and he gives
Not one rousing cheer for Fierces and fivs.

For people who fall for this City of Grief

". Reisen10ebers.
The meretricious music throbs
And towards the tables twisted ranks,
A frail and slender dancer bobs,
Acknowledging the loud-clapped thanks.
The music sobs, the music spins;
The patrons in the open space
Like seekers after honied sins
Are whirling in a mad, gay race.
How glittering How sharply false!
Why life and love seem hollow liesi
And these folk 1uttering through the vase'
Like artificial butterflies!

s. Henri Wolf in the Richfeld Daily
Richfeld Springs is fine place,
I'm sure l ought to know;
Have spent there the last twelve summers,
And hope the next there to 90.
The baths have helped me greatly,
For my wife they've done the same,
And had l not have used them
Am l would be lame.
The natives all so friendly
When l meet them the street,
And always give the glad hand,
Whenever them l do meet.
So I repeat it's fine old place,
And Of it tires.
In its praise l could very much more space,
But this is all it requires.

STANLEY SPEAKS TO RECORD
BREAKING CROWDS IN THE
THIRD DISTRICT.

Franklin, KY, June 26, 1915.-Spe-
cial Correspondence.)- Hon. A. o.
Stanley finished the busiest week Of
his campaign to-day at this place,
speaking to the largest crowd that
has attended a political speaking in
this county in years, estimated at g.
900 to 5000 Enthusiasm was unbound
ed. and, to all appearance, Stanley
men were the only kind of Democrats
in Simpson county.
Mr.. Stanley began the weeks cam
paign at Glasgow, where a record
breaking attendance greeted him. 1t
was the largest crowd that has been in
Glasgow since the Civil War; Prac-
tically everybody seemed to be for
Stanley.
From Glasgow, Mr.. Stanley went to
Edmonton, Metcalfe county; Browns
vile, Edmonton county, and Scots
vile, Allen county. Everywhere the
attendance was larger than the court
houses could accommodate, and win.
dows and standing room were occu-
pied by eager Democrats, notwith-
standing the fact that the farmers are
behind with their work and in the mid
die of their harvests.
The mastery appeals Mr.. Stanley is
making to the people to stand by Pres
ident Wilson in his splendid leader
ship of the party Is received most en-
Enthusiastically. 1t is apparent every
where that the people want business
administration, with such revision
of the tax laws as will enable the state
to pay off the 100000 state debt,
without laying any heavier tax burden
upon the farms, live stock and other
tangible property that now pays the
expense of government. Millions upon
millions of property that escapes as
sessment and pays no taxes must be
put upon the tax duplicate and made
to pay its share of the taxes necessary
to pay off the state debt, build good
roads throughout the state, and i'm.
prove the school system by having
longer terms in the cou:.try and better
paid teachers.
The County Unit Law, passed by the
last legislature, meets the approval of
the people. They do not want to ex-
pertinent with statewide prohibition,
when under the County Unit system
every county can vote out the saloons
any time majority Of the people
want to do so. The taxpayers do not
want to destroy the $100,00O,000 Of
taxable property in the state that is
paying nearly a million dollars year
in taxes. and place upon the farms,
factories, live stock and other prop
erty, already too heavily taxed, that
additional burden, which would be
necessary II statewide prohibition
were adopted.
The slogan, stand by the President
and the Democratic platforms, state
and national, upon which the party
has won it's greatest victories" meets
the hearty approval Of the people.
