Prof. Harris also had something to
say about the building of the annex,
and it seems to be the opinion of some
Of the board that it can be built cheap

over the crew, and especially did this
seem to be so, since most Of the con-
tractors did not want to allow any
thing reasonable for the material from
the Atehenaeum that was to be used.

ToDAY'S ISSUE.

An examination of the columns OF

of the high esteem in which The Her.

Of Columbia as an advertising medium.
Small wonder that this Is the case,
because the advertisers appreciate the
value of advertising in newspaper
that is read. They realize that the
newspaper that is a factor in the lives
NJ the people, that is to a great ma
4ority of them an institution of the
county, its perusal part of their daily

the advertising columns prove to tnom
the greatest value. Do not throw to-

MAuRY COUNTY SOLDIERS.

Maury county would not be Maury
county if it were not represented by
soldiers at the front. 1t has always
played conspicuous part in the wars
of the nation from that OF 1912 down TO
the present time. The chief United
States officer in the state now is a
Maury countian. One of the admirals
of the navy is a Maury countian. In
the Spanish-American war this county
had a splendid company at the front
and one Of its sons was major OF
the First Tennessee regiment. 1t Is
gratifying to know that so many OF its
splendid young men are going to the
front at this crisis in the country's
history to answer it's call.
They will not regret their response
70 the cali of their country. They Will
mot find that glamor and glory that
40 many think doth hedge war about,
hut they will find opportunity to do real
service for their country. BY reason
of this service they will make better
citizens. The good soldier, the youth
who in the camp and in battlefield con-
ducts himself as a manly man. shirks
no duty, avoids no issue, lives clean
and honorably is sure in after years
to make a good and useful citizen.
The young men who have proffered
their services to their country from
Maury county are worthy descendants
of their noble sires, who In so many
wars and upon almost innumeraDle
battlefelds added to the eternal glory
and fame Of Maury county. They Will
acouit themselves we'll should the test
of battle be their fate But even il
there is no actual war they will have
the opportunity in the dull routine OF
The campaign to show the metal OF
which they are made. That is really
seyerer test in some particulars than
they will And amid the shock OF battle
The Herald is sure that wherever rate
NAV carry them, whatever their portion
An the war may be, the soldiers from
nd Maury will render good account
Of themselves and place another naio
unon the brow of the glorious DIM
pie"

MUST BEAR
NATIONS BURDEN.

Cleveland Plain Dealer: The young
men, the boys who have not had their
share of years, are the ones who must
bear the nations burden in war They
have seen little of the world, and have,
probably, reaped few Of the rewards of
life At Is or q or even rs we have
everything before Us. We have the
right to look forward to long and
happy life. Surely life never looks so
bright and desirable as it does at 81!
1t is one of the cruelties and incon-
sistencies Of war that it demands its
sacrifices from among those who have
the clearest right to life and the bright
est promise of happiness and useful
ness. Even among the young it picks
and chooses. It rejects the physically
imperfect and the mentally deficient.
For its altar it's accepts only the blood
of the best.
Those who have known but little OF
life, those who may have no posterity
of their own, must suffer for those
whose work in life is more nearly
done, and for the posterity of others.
Surely in all the annals of humankind
from cave man to ultra-civilization
there is no figure to compare with the
boy who goes to fight his nations bat
ties. and who gladly gives his all for
principle or an abstraction that 9TH
ers may reap the benefit Of that which
he seeks to perpetuate Born earlier
or later he might enjoy richly the good
things of the earth; he is the victim or
circumstances he cannot control or
perhaps even understand. His altru-
ism is perfect.
The older men are no less willing.
They may go forth as commanders.
But in the fighting ranks war will not
accept them 1t must have only those
who are the physically best. To the
elders It will vouchsafe the right OF
self-sacrifice.
In Europe war Is swallowing the
bows month after month. America
now sees only the first stage OF the
immolation, and prays that it may &c
in ofurther. Every man OF middle age
or more mature years who sees the
khaki companies setting forth for the
uncertain chances Of battle and the
absolutely certain miseries OF Mex
lican midsummer may well render them
homage even though his attachments
lin life are far greater than any which
could be possible for their youthful
ness.

THANKS SEWING ODE.
By John Greenleaf Whittier.


Once more the liberal year laughs out
Ger richer stores than gems OF
gold;
Once more with harvest song and
shout
Is natures bloodless triumph told.
Our common mother rests and sings,
Like Ruth, among her garnered
sheaves.
Her lap is full of goodly things;
Her brow is bright with autumn
leaves.
o favors every year made new
. gifts with rain and sunshine sent.
The bounty overruns our due;
The fullness shames our discomfort.
We shut our eyes, and flowers bloom
on;
We murmur, but the corn ears
fill;
We choose the shadow, but the sun
That casts it shines behind US still.
God gives US with our rugged soil
The power to make it Eden fair
And richer fruits to crown our toll
Than summer welded islands bear.
Who murmurs at his lot today?
Who scorns his native fruit and
bloom
Or sighs for dainties far away
