The Seventh Appellate Dis
trict. composed of y counties in
Eastern Kentucky, altho now
represented on the bench of the
highest court et the state by a
democra, is normally republican
by nearly $4,000. This great
body Of good oval republicans
should have representation. A
republican ought to be chosen
from this district. That will be
done at the November general
election Of that there is scarce
ly a shadow of doubt. The
candidate chosen by republican
voters at the August primary
will be elected next November.
Judge F. d. Sampson, of Bar
bourvi..e. is in the race for that
nomination and from all reports
he IS m 1t good and strong. At
this time he looks like a winner.
The Judge Is q life long republi-
can. Ever since he attained his
majority he mas been Staunch
supporter OF Republican prlncl-
pies and has always been active
in every CAM" IGN in support of

lodges Of Western Tennessee, North Ala

the ceremony.
The monument will stand near tho old

by the intersection Of the Corinth-Pitts-
burg Landing and Hamburg-Savannah
roads. 1t will face in the direction from
which the Confederate forces advanced
to the attack in the early morning Of
April 6. 1862.
The monument when completed will
represent years Of patient work on the
part Of the Daughters Of the Confederacy
in raising the money. Though the battle
of Shilah. fought April Ct. 1862, was one
Of the most important Of the war. the
national military park there contains but
three monuments to commemorate the
part played by southern troops in the
battle. The monument now under con-
struction will be the most imposing in the
park. 1t is being constructed Of Mt.

of what was q colony Of 200 Americans
and their families. industrious cultivat-
ors OF the soil, living in real neishbor-
ly relations among several thousands
of Mexicans and Indians. Harrassed
for more than two years by so-called
Constitutional soldiers not by the
Mexican townspeople. they were fin
ally driven out when they no longer
owned property worth looting.
Why weren't these men and their
families protected? They weren't ad-
venturers. They were exactly the sort
of people who have gone into our own
West-mainly ranchmen, a few store
keepers, a school teacher or two, the
community's doctors, mechanics and
professional men.

friendly relations with them; they en-

know how to get the right people to
 work with them, to get congenial peo-
 pie together, to bring out the very
 best that is in them; this is one of the secrets of Mrs. Bushs tremendous suc- cess; she always knows and gets the right people together-and in her sweet,
 modest way she declares that the glory
 belongs to thems-that the success of
 each charity ball has been through the splendid cooperation, or team work" as I call it, of her associates and CO.,
 workers.
 Mrs John c. Henley and Mrs Charles
 Fairchild DeBardeleben, the general chairmen of the chfrity ball of 1916,
 proved that "team work was essen tially one of the greatest factors in the success of the ball; their united efforts in every respect showed the value of "team work" the appointment of the different subchairmen and their com mittees-the splendid team work" each did, was commented upon by everybody; with Mrs. Thomas D. Parke, chairman of the publicity committee; Mrs Samuel l.. Ledbetter, chairman of the decora- tion committed; Mrs. Henry Lee Bad ham, chairman of the coffee commit tee; Mrs. Charles o.

 of the things that has made it the great est organization in the world today.
 It was suggested the other day that the recent charity ball which was given
 here for the benefit of the District Nurses association last April was an evidence of the fact that team work was most essential in making a success of a social affair well as making it a success from @ financial point of view. In the first place, the inspiration in this case for team work comes from the honored and beloved president of the Dis trict Nurses association, Mrs. Thoma s Green Bush; as somebody has said: Mrs. Bush is the District Nurses association. ; Certain 1t is without her there would never be such splendid results achieved, such an eagerness and earnestness to
 work and such an influence for every
 thing that is best and finest, for with her beautiful spirit of loyalty to cause
 which has probably benefited more than any other the sick and the suffering in
 the Birmingham district Mrs. Bush has enshrined herself in the hearts of all
 those who are connected with the work
 as a sweet angel of charity, whose works
 and deeds bespeak her gentleness of
 character and her tender sympathy for |,5uffering humanity.

 Is there any more effectual way of dis posing of the pests-winged and larvae than by soaking the chair with clear gas oline and pouring the same into the floor cracks and corners all through the room? Sweep and dust well before using the gasoline, and when you have done it shut the room up closely for "A hours No insect life can endure through the process.
