vania, drifted southwest through
the long valleys into the mountains.
And the greatest number, including
all the Mes, McHone, Mcintosh, Nc
Pherson, Mcconnell, and the rest,
come from John knOx's good old
Scotland. There are some fifty
mountain counties like Perry and
Letcher in which there are practi-
cally no negroes and none of foreign
birth. In the census Of 1910 these
counties showed more than % per
cent. native born and the children
of native born parents. If there is
any credit in the American stock,
we have it.
This is an important thing for our
country is suffering an invasion of
foreigners. II is not Christian or
right for US TO despise the negro or
the foreigner. II they are here, they
must be treated as neighbOrs; but
we as old Americans, have the lar
gest responsibility for keeping this
country on the right track. We
were born at the head Of the pro-
cession and we ought TO have the
devotion which will keep us there.
Now for our capacity. II has been
shown in our county's wars. II was
mountain men who turned the tide
against the British in the Revolu-
tionary War at the battle of Kings
Mountain. II was mountain men
who made West Virginia secede
from secession; held Kentucky in
the Union; and put the first United
States flag on Lookout Mountain.
And wherever our mountain people
have had books and the chance 10
study, they have produced thinkers
and scholars.
Our advantages are good ancestry,
good health and the habit d indie
pensence.
Our handioaps are lack OF money,
lack Of education, and a certain fear

Only One TyroI.

1t Is not correct to talk about "the
Austrian Tyrol' or 'the Italian Tyrol."
Mr.. Baillie-G rohman, one of the great
est authorities on The Land In
the Mountains" condemns such errors
severely, insisting that there is only
one Tyrol. He has denounced also the
use of the article. declaring 1.-The Tyrol'
to be as wrong as THE Scotland
would be. Mr.. Coolidge, however,
pointed out TO the present writer some
years ago that. while Mr.. Baillie-Groh-
mans long residence in the country
naturally makes him take an accurate
Austrian standpoint, "the Tyror' Is

THE MOUNTAIN PATRIOT
Continued From Page One)

our mountain country.
First, its extent. 1t is made up OF
the mountain ends of eight states.
It's area is one hundred thousand
square miles. II Is bigger than MI
New England, with the Empire STATE
thrown in.
IL produces about all that God ever
gave to a country, from maple sugar
to cotton. The great things which
it has to sell to the outside world are
lumber, coal, and oil, but best of all
are the products of the soil, the
peaches, berries, MELONS, sheep,
swine, cattle, and above all, the gol-
den corn. We have neglected these
things too much in seeking after
quick money from the lumber,
coal and oil.
Now, what is the chief character
istic Of living in the mountains?
Every mans home has some one
chief characteristic. One man lives
by the sea and his life is affected
by the tides and the storms and the
fishing. Another lives in the city
and his life is affected by the noise
and the crowds and the ceaseless
activity.
The chief characteristic of living
in the mountains is that it is hard
work TO travel far. A prairie farmer
has a world bounded by a circle
of twelve or fifteen miles from center
to edges. He can go in every direc-
ton half a days journey from his
home but he must be back at milk
ing timel Within this circle his
daughters will marry. Within this
circle he will have his friendships
and his quarrels. His world is a
round world.
And the man who lives at the sea-
shore has only half a circle for
his world for half of it is taken up
by the sea whore no neighbors live,
The mountain mans world q
shoe-string world. He can &c
half a days journey upstream or
downstream. This is his valley
world. He does not know as many
neighbOrs as the city man. He does
not have as varied experiences, but
he has, as we shall see, his own adj
vantages. The country life is less
evil and less progressive than the
city life.
Our Mountain People: Their Breed,
Capacity, Advantages and
Handicaps
Now, let me introduce you to your
self Our breed as mountain peO-
pie is good. Our family names show
il. Such names as BakeR and Hazel
wood point back TO old England. A
few of us are descended from the
Professionals of France. the Hugue-

by such names as Chasteen and

TO THE CITIZEN
East River, Nova Scotia.
July 80, 1916.


July 80, 1916.
Miss Jean Cameron of Berea who
was visiting her native land, Nova
Scotia, attended service in the old
home church-East River. At the
close of the service she was greatly
surprised to be addressed by the
Pastor and presented with a book
entitled "Pictonians at Home and
Abroad" in token of the appre"i-
alton of her generous and faithful
remembrance of the church of her
childhood.
Her sister, Mrs. Jas. Gum whose
home is at East River. Novia Scotia,
has sent the enclosed copy of the
Pastors address with the expressed
hope that you will care to publish 1t.
The address follows:
To Miss Cameron.
Permit us with this to tender you
our sincere appreciation of your
kindness, and testimony of our aife, =
tionate interest in you.
Il is with pleasure that we well
come you to your home, after years
of absence, and il is with regret
that we learn your visit is to be
short. Yet we feel ere your de-
parture that we should record our
appreciation, not only as individuals,
but as a congregation, not only for
the fact that you love your home,
but also that you love your home
congregation, since you have given
abundant tokens of your perennial
interest in the congregation, by
your generous gifts of an organ and
clock, as well as liberal yearly con-
tributions to stipend and missions
of our church, which has touched
us deeply, and we would be very re-
miss in our duty, if we did not in
some way voice our sincere appreci-
alton, which we herewith tender
YOU. Altho absent from US, we are
thus reminded that you are one OF
us, besides your example has been
a pleasing stimulus to us, and il
error there be in presenting this
testimony, lay it to its truet cause,
namely our affectionate regard for
you. And with it also permit us to
convey to you cur affectionate wish
and prayer for your present pros
perity and happiness with rela-
tions and friends at home or
abroad, and further that you
may be granted the desire of your
heart to enter in rest yonder. To be
classed among the CLOUD of Wit
nesses surrounding the Throne"
with Father and Mother is so very
dear to you, as well as to so many
others. We do not attempt in this
to compensate you for your alice
tiOnate interest in us, but to assure
you of our appreciation OF what you
have done so nobly. Yet we sincere
ly believe that you will be fully
commended and compensated by ouI
Glorious Redeemer, who assured His
disciples as an incentive in all ages
that not even a cup of cold water
that not even a cup of cold water
was overlooked, but would be boun-
tifully rewarded.
May you then by Him be greatly
enriched by His grace and at las
crowned with the Growing Life.
Submitted in the bonds of the Cos
pei, and on behalf of the congrega-
ton Of East River.

Train Your Hair as
an Actress Does

No class of people devotes as much
time to beauty as do actresses, and
naturally no class must be more care
full to retain and develop their charms.
Inquiry among them develops the in
formation that in hair care they find
it dangerous to shampoo with any
hair cleanser. Instead they
have studied to find the finest prep
aration made for shampooing and
bringing out the beauty OF the hair.
The majority of them say that to en-
Joy the best hair wash and scalp
stimulator that is known, get pack
age of canthrox from your druggist;
dissolve a teaspoonful in a cup Of hot
water and your shampoo is ready. 1t
costs less than three cents for this
amount. After it's use the hair dries
rapidly, with uniform color. DandrUn
excess oil and dirt are dissolved and
entirely disappear. Your hair will be
so fluffy that it will look much
heavier than IL is. Its luster and soft
ness will also delight you. while the
stimulated scalp gains the health

ton Of heavy losses from unexpected
causes. They should guard against fraud

sign. Crops may be ruined by severe
storms.
The detection OF a leader in a political
party is Indicated. The West will fur
nish surprises, the seers predict.
Bankers come under a sway that prom
Ises gain, but they must exercise unusual
caution.
Canada has a forecast that is en-
couraging. so far as the country's gen
Cral prosperity is concerned. There Is a
good sign for the governor general who
will win favor and inspire enterprise.
Writers should be patient during the
rext few days, which may be extraordi-
narily trying and disappointing. but they
have the forecast Of benefits before snow

Growth in the highest ideals Of citizen
ship is prognosticated. A recognition Of
universal brotherhood will be widespread
and will reach all classes, beginning with
