WOODMEN OF THE WORLD
ENJOYING PROSPERITY.

Elm Camp No. 3, w. o. w. one
of Hickman s biggest fraternal
organizations, is experiencing a
new growth of membership. So
many new applications are com
ing in that the lodge is forced to
meet every Wednesday night to
give the new ones a ride on the
goat. This order is not only en-
joying prosperity in the way of
membership, but its finances are
in better shape than ever before
in its history. j. c.. Ellison,
clerk, has made it a point to keep
the revenues up and expenses
down, and by this policy has sue
ceeded in getting the order from
under "a burden of debt. Besides
a nice fund In the hands of the
treasurer, the WOodmen own a
business lot east of the Courier
office that is easily worth $500.
This order has for years boosted

of any lodge IN the county, and

RELIEVES HEADACHES
WITHOUT DOSING.
By Applying Sloan9 Liniment to
Forehead You Can Stop The
Severe Pains.

Many headaches are of a neu-
ralgic origin. The symptoms of
such headaches are intense and
lingering pains in the brow, tenn
pies sr back of the head.
There is one certain relief that
has been known and recommend
ed for years back, Sloan's Lini-
ment. One application and the
dull pain is practically gone. 1t
is easily applied without rubbing.
Rubbing is unnecessary, as
Sloan's Liniment quickly pene-
trates to the seat of trouble.
Aching muscles, rheumatism,
bruises, lumbago, chillblains,
sprains and stiff necks can also
be most effectively treated with
Sloan's Liniment. Cleaner than
mussy plasters or ointments; it
does not stain the skin or clog
the pores.

SHORTAGE OF COAL A
TROUBLESOME MATTER.

Manager Doyle Jurney, of the
Ketucky Light & Power Co., has
been suffering great mental
stress from day to day for the
past few weeks on account of the
coal shortage-or rather short
age of cars, which makes ship
ping a difficult matter. This
plant burns several tons per day
and last Saturday the bin got so
low that it was almost necessary
to sweep up the dust with a
feather buster, but a car reach
ed them In time to prevent a
shutdown. On top of the car
shortage, a big advance in the
price of coal is to be reckoned
with. Mr.. Jurney is merely get
ting taste of what the news
papers have been up against for
some time-that is having to pay
two prices for thing and not
being able to get it then.

A GOOD THING ALONG

The Sacramento Bee says that a missionary in that city recently
said:
"The teaching and conversion of the Chinese and other Orientals
to Christianity will be the most potent factor in preventing a still blood
Ter conflict than that now raging"
Indeedi But possibly some of the good people of this country who
ire pouring their money into foreign missionary work will OF take this
assertion too literally when they remember that God-the God of the
Chrisians-s on the side of every nation engaged in the present foolish,
insensate, bloody conflict. This must be so because when the Russians
gain a victory they give God credit for it; the great wal cry of the
Germans is "Gott NIT uns;' the English blame the devil for defeat; the
French, the Ausrians and the Italians are equally positive that Jehovah
is guiding their individual efforts. In brief, this is a great, wonderful
Christian war;. Certainly convert the Chinese, for instance, to Christian

Ordinarily persons who attempt to force admission to organizations
that do not desire them a. members get little public sympathy. But if
they believe the discrimination to be based n grounds other than per-
sonal, what then?
A case in point is a suit brought to secure admission 20 the American

gineer's degree from Cornell university. She claims that it is a case of
discrimination, not against her, but against woman.

OTHERS HAVE RIGHTS, ALSO

Germany may claim the right to fire upon a armed ship without
warning, but it is up to international law to determine what a armed
ship is and not up to Germany. This is the stand that President Will
o takes, and in it he will receive the support of a big majority of the
American people. America is disposed to give Germany a fair deal, but
such ruth1essness as that nation has displayed in the past in submarine
matters and what she proposes to do in the future, if she has her w
way, are things that the part Of civilization which is not at va will not
tolerate. They have some rights, also. that must DE respected.
