Heed this Notice.

There is city ordinance prohibit
ing the throwing OF slop, old cans and
other rubbish upon the streets and al
legs of the town of Columbia, and it
should be strictly -obeYed. 1t is the
desire of the municipal board to put
this town in good sanitary condition,
but it can not be done unless the resi-
dents of Columbia cooperate with
those in authority. Pestilence might
come, and should it visit this commu-
nifty, it could be checked much easier
if the town is clean than otherwise.
Every town in Kentucky is taking pre-
caution against disease, and this place
should stand in line with those who
are making an effort to protect human
life. Now is the time to act, Get
busy. The Board is now having the
weeds moved along all the sidewalks
in the city, which make the streets
more attractive. This work will be
continued until all the sidewalks will
be cleared of all kinds of obnoxious
growth.

No Change in the R. R. Situation.

We had hoped by this issue to report
that the rights of way for the railroad
had been secured, but they have not,
and the situation is about the same as
reported last week. If the farmers in
Adair, Green and Taylor want road
they must give the right of way, that
is those who own lands the road would
pass over. That is all that is lacking.
The $4,000 bonus is up. The farming
element WOULD be benefited more
than any other class of men, and they
should show their anxiety by giving
rights of way. Do this and the road,
in our judgment, is secured.

Got His Political and Religious
Wires Crossed.

The late Gov. James r. Hindman,
of Adair county, who was known all
over the State, once got his politics
mixed with his religion under novel
circumstances, and the incident is
often referred to in Methodist gather
ings. .
1t was in 1892, just after he had
been nominated as the Democratic can
didate for Congress in the Eleventh
district at the London convention,
that Gov. Hindman, who was zeal
Gus Methodist and active worker in the
denomination, vent to Campbellsville
to attend the Louisville Conference of
the Methodist Episcopal Church South
as delegate. When he got there the
subject under discussion was the
"Lack of Spirituality in the Church. "
Gov. Hindman promptly took part in
the discussion, ending up with:
Brethren, l want to say TO you that
spirituality is the bedrock of Democ-
racy, and therefore we have got to
have more of it in the Methodist
Church
I While Gov. Hindman's clear cut
declaration created commotion in
the Conference, the members, know
ing that he had come direct from an
I enthusiastic Democratic gathering and
| xuac fllod with an aYnharanco Of mari
spirit, charitably overlooked his re
marks when he got his political and
religious wires crossed.
Although he made gallant race in
that Republican stronghold, Gov.
Hindman was not elected to Congress.
In 1897 he was the neminee of the
Sound Money" Democratic party for

An Ode to Tale.

The following lines were written BY
Miss Nell NayIor, of Oklahoma, who
is visiting frer relatives in Columbia
and vicinity. The subject was given
her at picnic on the lawn of Mr. A
g. Todd, few afternoons ago, and
she only had minutes in which to
write it. A premium was offered for
the best verses in the time allotted,
and Miss Naylor won it, there being
number of contestants:
When the day is hot and sunny and
your complexion begins to fade,
Just take box of Williams and touch
it up shade
It's made in Connecticut, and sent out
by mail,
If you have none in your house get
some without fail.
Now don't think for once that it's only
used on faces.
For often to make biscuits it is used
in places.
1t is splendid they say for cleaning
white shoes,
And for toothpasts too, it has been
often used.
Don't worry about it's goodness, the
pure food law makes it so.
Now, if you have none on hands at
once to the drug store go. ..

THE POTATO PACH.

In most parts of Arkansas it is possible to grow two crops of Irish potatoes on the same ground in one season. Then can any farmer have any excuse for not growing enough potatoes for his own table from June to March? Only small patch will be needed if the ground be well plowed, and the crop well cultivated and cared for. As the first crop is dug for the family the next crop should be planted. In one county last year half the white farmers bought potatoes for family use and each one could have raised enough and to spare on waste ground around the house. Plant potatoes and plant early and then plant for second crop.

rp,,NING YOUNG PEOPLE.

o0r problem in the Southwest IS to ..';1 1 o,,r young people for service ana 'ialH .hom serve. No time need be nelp .,d in urging boys and girls to sa,', ,.av on the farm. Rather we should ssse s.ss country life more attractive mon ..A ,,ore interest and greater oppor- s,' ';.;es for those who wish to stay. '' come of the young people now on ..rms would succeed far better Tn the i' s and cities. Many boys and wv" .N,a now in cities would find greater s.nortunites for a competence and prfo,table living on farms. The oDen country is conducive to heaith' w visor and longevity and those who ap- .ssciated ". the liberty and freedom of farm life have great opportunities for citizenship.
 The country can ill afford to lose it's most useful young people, but it can and should train and otherwise as- ,;st others to take the places of those wbo leave. The country's loss in am- hitious, industrious young people IS the city's gain. But let us not forget that neither the country nor the city is independent. The one IS largely dependent upon the other. Our con- esrn should be for moral, efficient citizens.
 From the towns and cities boys and young men are coming to enjoy the open country; to give rural society the touch 6 business activity and to unite with rural thought to build up society. College boys and girls are now finding "the fields already white unto harvest in the open country; rural life is being influenced by the schools, boys and girls clubs, by farmers institutes, <ood roads, auto mobiles, etc. The problem is to sec that our schools and rural society train the boys and girls who say on the farm because they believe it af- lords an opportunity for service. It $ the duty of every community to enrich country life and make it wor- thy of the young people. Every indi- vidual has responsibility.-Farm and Ranch.

The interest here in "The Blindness Of Virtue" the Essauay film adapta- ton which is to be shown at the Gem theatre on Thursday, matinee and night should be very great, if the beliefs of the ministers and educators throughout the country count for any thing.

FOG HOLDS UP ship
10 Hours ON POTOMAC
$50 Passengers on Steamer Southland
from Norfolk.

Marooned for ten hours on the Lower
Potomac River in a dense fog, 80 pas
sengers on the steamer Southland bound
from Norfolk. were landed at the Sew
enth street wharf late yesterday after
noon, none the worse for the delay.
The steamer left Norfolk Thursday
night. Shortly after midnight a fog fell.
The engines were slowed down and fog
til shortly after 3 o'clock, when 1t be-
came so dense that Capt. Knowles decid-
ed to anchor until the fog lifted.
I All the passengers were in their state
rooms and there was no excitement. Fog
horns were blown and searchlights play
ed about the surrounding waters to pre-
vent accident.
In the morning the passengers found
the Southland anchored at Cow Point,
on Colonial Beach, on the Lower Po-
tomac, and were assured by Capt.
Knowles and his officers that the voyage
would be resumed when the mist raised.
There was some anxiety on the part OF
relatives and friends of passengers who
had expected their arrival in Washing
ton at o'clock. It was not until late in
the day that the officials received word
Of the safety OF the steamer.
Shortly before noon the hot sun began
TO clear away the fog, and at 2:15 the
atmosphere had cleared sufficiently and
the steamer started for Washington. She
arrived at 4:35. An extra force of freight
handlers enabled the steamer to discharge
her cargo and leave on her return trip
last night slightly after the usual hour
Of departure.
