THE THRICE-A-WEEK Ed
TION OF NEW YORK
WORLD.
Practically a Daily at the Price of a
Weekly. No other newspaper i'm the
world gives SC much at so low price.

There has never been time when
Il nwepspare was more needed i'm the
household. The great war in Europe
has now entered it's second year, with
no promise of an end for long time
These are world shaking events, in
which the United States, willing or
unwilling, has been compelled to take
a part. No intelligent person can
ignore such issues.
The Presidential contest also will
soon be at hand. Already candidates
for the nomination are in the field,
and the campaign, owing to the ex-,
tiaordinary character of the times,
Will be of supreme interest. No other
newspaper will inform you with the
promptness and cheapness of the
Thrice.a-Week edition of the New
York World
The Thrice-a Week Worlds regular
subscription price is only $1.O0 per
wear, and this pays for 1856 papers.
We offer this unequaled newspaper
and THE CLINCH VALLEY News
together for one year for 1926. The
regular subscription price of the two
papers ia $3.50.

CHILD POVERTY Is ONLY Pow
ERTf THAT M.tTTER%.
(By G.. Bernard Shawl

tlfy u. bernard Shawl
Child poverty is the only scrt of
poverty that matters. The adult WHO
has been poor as Il child will never
get the chill of poverty out of his
bones; but he will die and make room
for better nourishcd generation.
There are no doubt property own
ers in America who tell Judge Henry
Neil that it is confscation to tax
one mans property to pay for the
education of another mans children.
We have scoundrelS Of that sort in
England, too. Some day they will
have the opportunity of saying it 20
Il higher judge than Henry Neil He
will send them to the place lie re-
serves for those who have learned
to say "Our Father but have not
learned to say "Our Children" The
one without the other is blaplcmy
Also it is an unbusnesslikc folly.
Neglected children cost more than
well nourishcd ones to everybody cx-
ccp their Immediate parents.
The principal business of q police
man ut present is 10 prevent happy
Children from obtaining food.
The proper primary business of Il
policeman is to seize every hungry
child and feed it. to collar every rag
ged child and clothc it, to hand every
illiterate child over to those who will
teach it how to read and write
If America cannot see this, there
is no future for Ancric;.. And it is
because she has been slow TO see this
that so much of her past IS shameful
and so much of her present miserable.

THE MAN WITHOUT A COUN-
TRY"

The troubles of Nathan Cohen, "thc
man without Il country" are over
the unfortunate man having died a
few days ago in IL hospital in New
York. Several years ago Cohen came
to the United States from Brazil and
engaged in business in Baltimore. Ac-
cording to the alien law an immi-
grant who becomes IL public charge
within three years of landing must
he taken to the country from whence
he came. Cohen was Lcpor,cd but
the Brazilian authorities would not
accept him. and so he went to Argcn-
tina, where he was refused land
ing Then followed process of de
portation, Keeping the man upon the
high seas, sailing back and forth be-
tween North and South America The
steamship company tried to wish the
man onto Russia, which was his native
land, but the Russian authorities re-
fused to take him back. Finally the
Knights of Pythias discovered that
he had joined that order, and thru
their interceSsion, the immigration
authorities were prevailed upon to
permit Cohen to land, and he was TAX
en- to Il sanitarium, with the provision
that he WAS to be deportcd after the

800 for the jewelrv firms who sup
piled him with baublcs for chorus
girls.
1t is just such casese as this which
makes one question the public policy
OF allowing Il man to spend and enjoy
that which he has not earned. Has
any one Il moral right to be mere
consumer? This is Il working world
The idler is Il menace. lcech. Some
day the law of inheritanccs will be
tuned up to such Il pitch that the rich
mans son will have to work as we'll
as the poor mans son. There are
thousands of scions of wealth who'do
their part in this busy world. The
number of those who just now "biow
in Dads money" is not large in COM
parison, but the "idle rich" do con
stitutc II class dcspicablc and Il men
ace TO The country.
Is this an age of small men? Look
ing over the field of industry and com
mcrce one pcrforcc denies the state
mcnt, for there are giants in every
line of useful activity. But looking
into official circles both in this coun-
try and abroad one sees an amazing
lot of small men rafting around i'm
big places, doing no little harm and
bringing administration into disrep-
ute by their incapucity Is it that the
rewards of businesses draw the c0mpc-
tent men away from public service?
Or is it that the instability of public
life, the political uncertainties. the
small rewards and the ready con
demnation of tickle and ignoratn
press deter men of Il real ability from
entering public life?

The Maintenance of Roads," is the
one supreme question which engages
the attention of the road authorities
Night and day-day in and day out
the roads are wearing away-wash
ing away-blowing away. The heav-
lily loaded narrow tired wagons are
cutting in, grinding the limestone
INTO fine flour dust. The rapidly NOV.
ing autos pick up this dust and hurl
1t to the winds and the winds carry il
away. And this process goes on all
the time, making it the more costly
proposition to repair the roads as the
years go by.
