whole country eagerly awaited the
leadership of the President, Wilson
lodged. He refused to take sides on
the greatest moral issue of our time.
He advised our people to be neutral
even in thought" undecided between
right and wrong. While our friends
abroad were fighting for the princi-
pies we held equally with them, he
taught us that profits and EAST were
better than self-respect. President
Wilson has done our Nation the most
serious injury that any leader can do
to any people by making US finch
with him from a great moral decision.
Thereby he weakened our hold as a
nation on the principles which alone
can make any people self-respecting,
safe and strong.
Having led us wrong on the ground
that we must be neutral in the face

of the deliberate breaking of the
worlds peace, he has just reversed
himself again, and in his speech at
Shadow Lawn now us that
"No nation can longer remain neutral
as against any wilful disturbance of
the peace of the world"
1t is bad enough that Wilson's for
eign policy has left US, as the War
draws toward its end, without a friend
among the great nations of the world,
and without the respect of any one
of them. What is worse is that he
has kept us from standing up for
what we know to be right.

him steadily dominated by political
expediency.
These facts and many others like
them, have forced me to see that
what Mr.. Wilson says is no sign of
what he has done or what he will do.
The one thing his record shows is
that what he stands for now he is not
likely to stand for long. I do not

paign declarations may be, because
the common experience of US all has
taught us that to him they are simply
"molasses to catch flies"
Hughes, on the other hand, is a
man of his word. His record as Gov
ernor of New York proves that. 1t
shows him to be honest, fearless and
free from the domination of special
interests and corrupt politicians. So

A LESSON ON GOOD ROADS.

If there has been any doubt in the
public mind as to the value of sand
clay roads, this doubt has been dis
PEELED by the experiences of the trav-
cling public. Throughout the county
where the road beds have heen wild
ened, drained and surfaced with
sand or top soil, the rains have
had little effect upon the roads.
There are many stretches of excellent
roadways throughout the county that
demonstrate the truth of this state
ment. 1t is to be hoped that the
county authorizes will continue to con-
struct such roads. 1t will be no
great while before practically all the
roads in the county will be in fairly
good shape. If those who opposed the
road bond issue would be willing to
have small additional levy for road
purposes it would not be long before
we would have good roads. We do
not spend sufficient money now to
maintain and build good roads. The
sum, considering the 600 miles of
roads in the county is pitifully small
too small.

losophy that we live well.'" Mrs.
Beatty said that her situation was
analogous to that of the candidate
who rose to make a speech and de-
livered himself of the following re-
marks: "My friends, am a labor
ing man and was so busy at work
that l did not have the time to write
no speech, and if had of had time
to writ speech, I wouldn't of had
time to of learnt it." She then went
on to tell of the nutritive value of the
different kinds of foods and of the
necessity of a well-balanced ration.
This excellent talk elected hearty ap-
plause.

sponded to Cooks, No soil upon earth

The decorating of the rooms and
tables was done entirely by the class,
the menu prepared by them, and the
dainty and attractive little bon bon
baskets filled with mints and put at
the place of each guest, were their
handiwork.
Mrs. Beatty was warmly congrata-
lated upon the success of the enter
tainment and the excellent progress
made by her class as evidenced by
their cooking. 1t is with genuine re-
gret that the pupils give this popular
teacher up, as she has decided not to

PUBLIC PIGS.

One cannot refrain from expressing
the disgust occasioned by the bad be-
havior of thoughtless people at pub
lie gatherings. The noisy hand-clap-
ping, the measured, simultaneous
stamping of feet, the constant talking
of people while some performance is
going on is more than disgusting, it
brands one as a pig. There is moth
ing smart about such a process. 1t
does not take intelligence beyond the
attainment of a brute to carry out
such a program. 1t defeats the will
of the many who go to hear, not to
be seen. If these long-eared speci-
men could but see themselves as 9TH
ers see them! But that is imposs-
BILE. One of the evils, along with
the many good things of democracy,
is that pig may behave as such and
there is little protection from his
noisy interference.

HELP A GOOD CAUSE.

The Mt. Vernon Presbyterian
church needed a new roof, so it was
covered with good shingles at cost
of about $4,000. The men of the
neighborhood did the work free. The
Bailey Lumber company gave us a
low rate, but after paying what we
could, we owe about $65.O0. Our
membership is small in number and
rich in faith but not in worldly
goods.
In the graveyard at Mount Vernon
are many who sleep their last sleeR
The surest way to preserve and pro-
tect these graves is to keep up the
church for the living God.
We ask the relatives of all who are
buried there and all the friends of
this old church to aid in clearing the
$65.00 debt.

Woodrow Wilson will be renomi-
mated by the Democrats, of that there
is little doubt. And it will be an
honor worthily bestowed. He will not
only be renominated, he will be re-
elected. His defamers are like the
man without the wedding garment,
speechless. 1t has fallen to the lot
of perhaps no other man to face so
many and such grave problems as
have come to President Wilson since
he has occupied the exalted position
to which he has been chosen. Nor
has any man shown a greater degree
of wisdom in solving these problems.
These United States will again call
Woodrow Wilson to be the head of the
nation.

DOMESTIC SCIENCE BANQUET

The High School Domestic Science
class taught by Mrs. W.T.. Beatty de-
lightfully entertained at a Mothers
banquet in the class rooms on FRIDAY
right.
The invited guests ;ncluded the pa
rents of the pupils, the trustees and
thier wives, the High school teachers,
Supt. and Mrs. Jeffries and a few
friends interested in The department.
Mrs. Beatty, assisted the pupils Of the
class wearing dainty caps and aprons,
welcomed the guests at the door and
invited them to the banquet room
which was gay with its decorations of
green and white, the school colors. The
deep window recesses were banked
with vases of Dorothy Perkins roses
and Towering pot plants, thus adding
a touch of color.
The place cards, designed by Mrs.
Beatty and made by the class, were
little booklets bearing on the cover
a picture of woman engaged in some
housewifely task. Within was the
following unique recipe for 4 happy
home, ~ Father, Mother, served
children. Place in a clean and or
derly house. Mix with abundance of
sweetness and a generous measure
of the oil of kindness. Season with
smiles and little spice but be care
full not to allow any Pepper Sauce to
drop in Leaven all with Love and
Righteouness. Serve ut zach meal
and between times"
Tall pink candles in cut glass can
delabra were used as the center dec
oration of each table and lighted just
as the guests assembled in the dining
room. A delicious fve-course sup
per was served by the members of
the class and if the proof of the ban
quet, like the pudding, is in the eat
ing, there is no doubt that the eff
forts of the class and teacher met
with due appreciation.
Mr.. Jeffries, who acted as toast
master, himself responded to the
toast, Mothers, the Uncrowned He
roes.'" Mr.. Jeffries prefaced his re-
marks by saying that if there was
any man who ought to know a great
deal about mothers it was himself,
for in his long experience as super
intendent of the schools he had had
many encounters with mothers, some
pleasant, some the reverse. After
speaking of the influence of the
mother in the home, he closed his re-
marks with the familiar quotation,
"the hand that rocks the cradle rules
the world"
Mrs. Beatty responded to the toast,

of nature that we live but of phi
