VIII Lo:k After Crops.

BOYD Harris, a farmer living
near Hopkinsville, has announc-
ed that he will assist in looking
after ane harvesting the crops
Of young men who enlist in the
army and leave the ir crops
without attention.
Mr.. Harris thinks there are
others in the community who
will devote a part of their time
to such work to the extent that
any young man who may have a
crop of any kind growing, may
answer the call of his country
with assurance that he will NOT
lose anything BY so doing.
This is most certainly a most
commendable spirit, and IL
worthy of emulation in all Sec
tions of the state.

John Ada ms stood.
II Washington was right, If

then the president Of the United

Lincoln was wrong. jefferson

One hundred and twenty years
ago, when Europe went mad
with war as it has gone mad TO-
day, jefferson pointed to the
north star of our neutrality
! when he said in the present
maniac state of Europe we
should not estimate the point OF
honor by the ordinary scale"
The reasoning which made this
ia sound rule in the maniac
state Of Eurepe"in Jefferson's
day makes it an equally strong
rule in 'the maniac state Of Eu-
rope" today.
Neutrality is the policy which
has kept us st peace while En-
rope has been driving the nails
of war through the hands and
feet Of q crucsfed humanity,
For enforcing this policy OF
neutrality, George Washington
was booted at by bowling mob
Of 10000 war fanatics, who
, threatened to pull him from the
presidential chair and start q
. revolution. But half o century

Audubon Members
Equal to Occasion
Upon "Lia',rls' Night

Members of the Audubon society
told strange tales about birds at their
liars night" meeting at the Public
library Saturday.
Mrs. H. D. Nicely told OF never
having seen Canadian jay on Amer
lean soil, although she declared that
she saw hundreds on islands border
ing this country. Scion R. Towne,
president of the society, told weird
tale of getting up at O'Clock in the
morning just to distinguish what kind
of bird made certain noises before
his window. Miles Greenleaf said he
tramped through Elmwood park ex-
actly 1856 times to add to his knowl-
edge of the songsters. In proof of
his statement he pulled out note
book in which he claimed to have re-
corded his trips.
Aside from swapping yarns, the Or
ganization voted to purchase fifty
colored bird slides drawn by Louis A.
Fuerts OF the National Geographical
society. The slides will be displayed
before different schools in order to
increase interest in the birds.
Plans were also discussed for bring
ing T. Gilbert Pearson, secretary OF
the National Audubon society, here
early this spring to deliver lecture
on birds. Pearson is considered ma
tional authority on the feathered
tribe.
