A POOR, MISGUIDED CREATURE.

A NEW publication has reached our exchange desk. 1t is titled 1.-THE
Truth About God and Life" and it's doctrine is, There is n o real God;
las no soul; life ends forever at death" The entire publication
OF four pages is devoted to arguments to sustain the doctrine.
Poor misguided creature. What utter hopelessness must one expert
ence believing in such a doctrine What dark dispair must fill ones
mind when death Is contemplated. How barren and worthless must life
seem with naught to look to beyond the grave but cold emptiness.
How & mn with sufficient intelligence to frame words into perfect
sentences cal believe in such a doctrine is beyond understanding.
There is a real coda God of Love.
Man has a soul, which is life itself
Life does not end at death, but continues I, for it is a part of
the great God plan.
1t is all reflected lin the love If a mother for her child, and in every un-
selfish act OF charity of la to man. 1t is felt in the kiss of babes, and
in the warmth of sunshine 1t is see in the immensely and grandeur
OF the universe, in the beauty O the flower, and in the majesty of the
mountain. 1t is heard in the song Of birds, in the wnisperings of low
ers. and in the stiffness of the night. All that is good proclaims it, and
the stars and planets revolving through endless space finally prove II.
The universe with all its inconceivabe intracicies cannot have
happened by chance. There is a divine power without beginning o. end
that shaped and controls it all, and the mind of la bears the same
relationship to that power that a ray of light bears to the sun.
There is a God, a God Of Light and Love; there is a soul which is
life itself; the soul does not die, fol it is part of God, and God is eternaI

A SPLENDID MOVE.

THE county commissioners re to be compltmened. They have ar
ranged for a splendid manual training room for the Elko County high
school witt practically no expense to the county.
In the basement of the courthouse is a splendid big room that was
n o expense 1t has been converted into a splendid work shop. The only
change necessary as to put in a concrete floor. Later a door way will
be. ut nto the room which will open to the outside and by thi sarrange-
ment n oom VIII be isolated frozen to the outside and by this arrange
boys going to and from will in no way interfere with the work Of the
officers. -
The room is splendidly equipped with every modern device general
~ used IN such a institution, including work benches. lathes, band
saw and carpenters tools of evnv de- puon.
Inc oys have made chests for themselves and each is responsible
tor his TOOLS and some of the work turned out looks like It came from
the hand OF a skilled cabinet maker.
Professor Thomas 4 in charge of this department and the work his
boys ar turning out reflects greatest credit upon him.
This comparatively new branch of training in or public schools
Is a most important one. Comparatively few boys follow trades or pro-
LESSONS which require frequent employment of knowledge gained in the
Tn handling II tools does not prove a benefit 1t is a part of the prac-
ucal side of education which of late years is being so much encouraged.
The action Of the commissioners in providing these splendid quarters
is most conmendable, and particularly true is this when it is considered
anc to the county officers.

UNEMPLOYMENT AND woMEN's

UNEMPEO7MENT AND WOMENS FASHIONS.
THE incessant changes in styles for women were declared a great
cause If unemployment at the convention held to discuss this subject the
past week at Philadelphia. Miss Juliet Stuart Poyntz, who has made a
study Of the reasons why people n ot of work, said that women con-
tnuany make so many changes in wearing apparel, that manufacturers
never know what to make until the last minute. They shut down while
style changes ire pending, then work overtime.
The reason why the average man spends less for clothes than the
average woman is not that masculine clothing is essentially less expens.
i've. 1t is more that the man wears his suit until it looks shabby. The
woman merely wears hers until it looks behind the game, though it may
still be perfectly neat and attractive.
As more and more women enter commercial careers and see things
more in q business light, they seem somewhat adverse to needless chang.
es. The business girls neat, trim suit and walking shoes look more like
standard masculine styles than anything the feminine world has devised
for twenty centuries. Manufacturers that produce this kind OF goods must
be able TO u With some degree of steadness.
The rumber of women who follow closely the caprices of fashion is
probably exaggerated. Hard working families have no money to throw
away on whims. Slight concessions of price by merchants o goods that
seem likely to go out of style ire quickly snapped up.
The fee use Of advertising is a great stabnlzer. The merchant with
a stock affected by a fashion change knows how he a N sell it without a
great loss. All which tends TO promote regularity of labor and employ
ment.
