Walter Taylor.

knew Walter Taylor as few people
knew him. He and l we're intimate
friends for number of years, and in
that time L was with him so much
that 1 am sure l knew just what sort
of man he was.
AS student, he was the equal of
any man in college. DR.. Macastrey,
Professor of Greek, told me almost a
year ago, that Taylor was one of the
best Greek students he had ever had.
Prof. Freeman, Professor of English,
said to me few days ago, that he
was one of the most consistent stu
dents he ever had. His grades in all
his studies during the time he has
been in college have been high. I
have seen men who got soma things
easier than Taylor did. but he kept
after it until he got it. He always
worked-too hard. L have often told
him he should take more recreation,
but he continued to work.
His life has been clean during all
the time l have known him. 1 have
never known him to do anything a
Christian man could not do. I have
never heard anyone say anything
against him. While he doubtless had
his faults, and made his mistakes, as
we all do on some occasions-I have to
learn yet of any thing in him which
true man would be ashamed of.
knew him also as young preach
er. He had never preached but a few
times, but was beginning to preach
occasionally. He had no idea of self
seeking, no ambition for comfortable
position, but he wanted to preach and
to preach where there was the great
est need of men.
have been asked to write this
short sketch with reference to Taylor
because knew him during the years
he was in college. L do not believe
that anything have said is the least
extravaganza, I'm sure it is not meant
to be. think it would be hard to
state too highly the sterling worth of
this sketch. 1t is a privilege to have
known him, and to know him was to
love him.

Road Talk.
T. L. FulSe

Mr.. j. G. Montgomery, of Ozark, is
an enthusiastic good roads advocate,
and he sends the following to The
News:
"As every body is talking good roads
l think the time has come when We
should put petitions before the people
and let them sign yes or mo- on the
proposition of taxation for roads. j
believe the best plan would be 10
place the petitions in the hands of the
postmaSterS Of the county and let
them take the vote of the patrons OF
the office. In that way we could get
an expression from the tax payers OF
the county. If this suggestion should
be favorably considered, the petitions
should be gotten up and placed now
while the roads are almost I'M.
passable.
Our road is in a very bad condi.
tion, and we are anxious to have a
pike.
La addition to the levy, we can raise
liberal donation. l am talking
road every day and L believe can Sc
cure the names to petition from al
the patrons of the Ozark post-office
The road from Columbia to Russell
Springs should be one of the first
worked, as it would bring competition
between the railroad and river trans
portation.
81 am told that Russell county will
meet us at the Adair line.
"Let us get to work at once."'

HEALTH OFFICERS COLUMN.
BY u. L. TAYLOR.

This is to be a poem, but l want it
understood that it is not original with
me. Away back about the middle of
the 10Th century, occasionally did
some rhyming, but 1 did not have it
printed. The kind of poetry that
pulled off would be so far outclassed
by the rhymers that write for the
News. that L would be ashamed to
have mine printed. l find this piece
in medical journal, and it is in line
with what I have to say about pre-
ventive medicine.
PRETENTION BETTER THAN CURE
"'Twas a dangerous cliff, as they
freely confessed,
Though to walk near it's crest was
so pleasant;
But ovar it's terrible edge there had
slipped
A duke and full many peasant.
So the people said something would
have to be done,
But their projects would not at all
tally,
Some said, 'Put fence round the
edge of the cliff"
Some, San ambulance down in the
valley"
But the cry for the ambulance carried
the day,
For it spread through the neighbor-
ing city,
| A fence may be useful or not, it is
true,
But each heart became brimful of
pity
For those that slipped over that dam
gerous cliff:
And the jewellers in highway and
alley
Gave up pounds or gave pence, not to
put up fence
But an ambulance down in the val
ley.
"For the cliff is all right If you're
CAREFUL they said,
"And if folks even slip and are drop.
1t isn't the slip that hurts them so
much,
AS the shock down below when
they're stopping"
So day after day as these mishaps &C.
Cured,
Quick. forth would those rescuers
sally
To pick up the victims who fell of
the cliff, ag
With the ambulance down in the
! valley. sG
Then an old sage remarked, "Its ia
marvel to me
That people give far more attention
To repairing results than to stopping
the cause,
When they'd much better aim at
prevention,
Let US stop at its source all this mis-.
Chief" cried he;
Come neighbors and friends let us
rally
If the cliff we will fence, we might
also dispense
With the ambulance down in the
valley.
"Oh, he's fanatic" the others re.
Joined,
Dispense with the ambulancei
never.
He'd dispense with all charities, too,
if he could,
No, no, we'll support them forever.
Aren't we picking them up just as
fast as they fall?
And shall this man dictate to usi
Shall he?
Why should people of sense stop tc
put Up fence
While their ambulance works in the
valley?"
But sensible few, who are practical
too,
Will not bear with such nonsense
much longer. ~
They believe that prevention is better
than cure,
And their party will soon be strong.

The Adair County news., 1915-01-27

To rescue the fallen is good, but, tits
best
To prevent other people from falling
Better close up the source of tempta-
tiOn and crime
Than deliver from dungeon or galley!
Better put strong fence round the
top of the cliff
Than an ambulance down in the
valley.
1t is much easier for 1000 men and
women (for we have some women who
do spit) to quitspitting, than it would
be to cure one case of consumption
brought on by splitting.

Letters From The People
1.-The Gentle Quality Of Mercy"

the Iiulogy of Senator Vest.
The one absolutely unSelfish friend
that man can have in this selfish
world. the one that never deserts him,
the one that never proves ung-ateful,
or treacherous. is his deg. A mans
dog stands by him in pl osperity, and
in poverty. in health and in sick
ness.
when riches take wings. and repu-
tation falls to- pieces. he is as con-
stant in his love as the sun in its
journey through the heavens. When
all other friends desert, he remains"
And yet that Is the animal that we
elect 10 beat, to starve. to torture. and
po kill.
Surely The Gentle Quality of
Mercy" has vanished from lie heart
of man.
