Don't YOU joke with us, John, we
want to know"
Il have already told you, but |
haven't told you the whole story Just
as 1t happened to me. You fellows
recollect bought big bunch of pigs
just about the time school opened.
Well they were as nice bunch as |
ever saw, so wanted 'em to be fed
right. My regular hand, oil 81, was
sick, so had to hire new man to do
the feedin'. While | was lookin'
around ] put the Logs in that clover
Held down next the school house so
they'd have grain enough an plenty
of water.
Il reckon you boys think I'm takin'
a long time to tell you the story, but
| believe it'll change your ideas about
the school like it did mine. Well, the
day | put the hogs in on the clover a
nice lookin' youngster about IS years
old come over to hire to me an feed
the hogs. ] talked with him an he
was bright all right, but he never had
fed nogs. He had worked on . farm
an he had pretty good education,
an wanted to hire him, but you see
| was afraid to risk feedin' lot of
corn to pigs that stood me FIVE hun
dred dollars in hard money"
81 don't blame you," remarked one
of the men, but how did that make
you decide you wanted to be trustee"
I'm comm to that now After the
young man had left an I'd finished
feedin' the pigs, | went over to the
school house as | was so close by.
When | went in the door reckon
was still thinkin' about the pigs an
the young man | was afraid to hire.
At any rate | looked over the room.
My children and your children goin'
TO school to a mite of a sweet little
girl of IS. I'd known her nearly all
her life an l was certain this was the
first school she'd ever taught. | knew
she's only finished goin' to school her.
self last year.
For minute felt like a fool be-
cause | knew I'd been afraid to trust
the feedin' of my hogs to youngster
without experience an yet here were
four of my own children goin' to
school TO an 1S-year-old little girl
without any experience.
That's the reason | told you | was
learnin' to love my children a new
way, an that's the reason I'm goin' to
take time to De trustee so | can see
that my children an your children get
a fair square deal from now on"

IL do not believe this Govern
ment can endure permanently half
slave and half free" said Lincoln
in his Springfield Convention speech
of June 16, 1858. Nor can it en-
dure half American and half alien.
Lincoln's warning that "a house
divided against itself cannot stand"
is as applicable to-day as it was in
1858. Hyphenated Americanism is
not treason within the narrow legal
definition of the Constitution. but it
Is moral treason that. II it is toler-
ated, will bring about the disintegra-
ton of the nation.
Mr.. Roosevelt. did not overstate
the case when he said IN his speech
to the Knights of Columbus. echo
ing the sentiments that President
Wilson had voiced to the Daughters
of the Revolutions: For an Ameri-
can citizen TO vote as German-l
American. an Irish-American or an
English-American is to be traitor
to American institutions; and those
hyphenated Americans who terrorize
American politicians by threats of
the foreign vote are engaged in trea-
son to the American Republic
President Wilson could not well
answer these threats. because they
have been made against him person
ally. but Mr.. Roosevelt has answered
them for him. and the sentiment
that Mr.. Roosevelt expressed must
be the sentiment Of every American
who Is loyal to his country New
York World.

Hon. H. G. Baker,
Columbia, KY,
Dear Sir:
The Tennessee Counties represent
ing the Dixie Highway Short Route
are very much in earnest about build
ing real Dixie Highway" and, as
we see it, the only obstacle we have is
the link from the southern Kentucky
line to your city coupled with whatever
difficulties there may be, if any, be-
tween your city on to Louisville. l
therefore take the liberty Of writing
you and suggest that you imme-
-diatelY perfect an association
of all the counties in Kentucky
through which this road will pass,
particularly those southwark from Co.
lumbia, and organize all these coun-
ties in one united effort to build this
road. OF course, / understand one

terial benefit to know that each coun-
ty will do its share and an organiza-
tion in Kentucky such as we have in
Tennessee Is vitality important. If
you can at once perfect this organi-
zation and call meeting, 1 will en-
deavor to have representatives of the
Tennessee Short Route present at the
meeting TO confer with you. We feel
like that if we build this road and
properly advertise, we will get the
travel no difference who gets the
name of the Dixie Highway and, by
the way, if you will notice the resolu-
tion adopted at Chattanooga there is
absolutely nothing definite about the
road selected. If we can get our road
under course of construction and have
it in better condition within twelve
months than either the eastern or
western road, as l believe we can, then
we still have a most excellent chance
of having our road named the "Dixie
Highway" because there is not now
any real Dixie Highway. Hoping
may hear from you very soon, am
; YouSs Truly,
