n ,,vISENSA LAD MEETS A MAID

Did heads who forget that
 sy were once young find much slusement in watching a young IO when he meets a maid on
 s street. We stood on a Feet corner the other day and etched an eminent citizen of .,ltllre Wears as he in turn gazed v.on hashful and blushing @-N04 won't tell you of the
 gp1a dignity and decorum of
 lad and maid, for we have lHn guilty of the same antics A'a pack in days that will Ayet Gc,ne again. But it was C4uaing to our eminent citizen
 d we think that he was ;tc t, : aAmuSing to US, In fact d hi;

 Rutthe next time you are on e street and a lad and a maid leet face to face, and you sus- let that there is a tender feel g betWeen them, just remember .e golden days of your own ,mth, and see not those things at you are not supposed to :e.
 Ofttimes an innocent smile is shaftthat cuts deep.

The boys called it their one-bull-power injine an had lot O fun out of it, but it done the work, an 1 do believe it put a whole lot more idees into them youngsters heads.
 We still run the bull-power sometimes, but we've got a shore-nuff gasoline injine now, an you bet mother don't draw and tote no more water.

 How about an auto, Uncle John?" we asked him, as he made ready to go.
 Just reminds me-. :" he said; mother an the boys are Waitin' fer me over in town, an we're gona look one over. See you later" and his sprightly step was ringing down the walk. The Progressive Farmer.

durance, bravery and tenacity is simply wonderful.
 If it becomes evident that the Germans have failed, the exul- tation of the French nation will surpass all bounds. Military experts have construed the great stroke as German attempt to impair the French morale, to inspire, despair and establish a convention of German invinci- bility. French victory, on the other hand, would strengthen a national spirit which already appears indomitable,
 That France does not eagerly jump at the conclusion of German failure is 9 pronounced indication of the new French temperament, sober and helpful, but not mercurial or credulous and hysterical.
 France today-the new France has settled down to realize the fact that the nation is in jeopardy; that France must fight to preserve the country so dear to the hearts of the nations of the world.
 Germany is persistent, and unless England does something, for Belgium has and is still doing her best, courageous France, the nation of spectacular fighters, will have 9 great big responsibility yet to face. The sympathy of the world is with France, Memphis Commercial Appeal.

GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY

The golden wedding given in honor of MT. and Mrs. Samuel Orobaugh was an occasion net eXcelled by any.

HOBO CONVENTION.
 A BIG SUCCESS

The Hobo Convention last Fri day evening was a success from every angle. The house was comfortably filled, the attention was good and everybody pro- nounced the show well worth while.
 Little 4-year-old Cathyrn Kirk ham was a wonder in her piece about the new baby that had come to take her place; chang ing from tears to laughter in an instant, speaking so plainly that she could be heard anywhere in the theatre, she was easily the hit" of the entire bill.
 Jessie Villines was right clever in her number, Three Loaves of Bread" and the three girls Reba and Edna Kirkham and Jessie Villines made hit with their song of the three runaway boys.
 The sinner and the song was especially good. Miss Alice Col win has a sweet voice and MT. Ola Curly as the sinner, and the Choir in the distance, made it impressive.
 Alone in the Streets, B." by Fay Villines, was a touching little song that took we'll with the audience.
 Space will not permit us to mention each number separately. They were all good.
 One of the best numbers of the evening was The Moneyless Man. ' by Dr. Elsie Schmitz, ably assisted by Miss Ida Warren, Frank Wells and little Veys Wells. 7 1t was very pathetic anc tears were very much in evidence Tn the audience, The box office receipts were very gratifying.

Some people are lodge crazy and join everything in sight. They are called "joiners". Others are pressimistic and can see no good in any lodge.
 But there is much good to be derived from membership in. any of the legitimate lodges that flourish everywhere. provided the lodge habit is not carried to excess.
 It creates a spirit of conrad ship among the members that is seldom found elsewhere. If a member is in distress or diff

THE FIGHTING FRENCH

Lord, how they fight, the fighting French. Since the be- ginning of the war they have played the spectacular part in the conflict. Their sensational repulse of the Germans, now and then, their stubborn resistance, has overshadowed all other mill itary achievements in the history of the war.
 It looks now to be a stubborn contest between Germany and France. Here are the two con- spicuous fl g h t i n g nations. Germany, with characteristic xstuhborness and bull dog tenacity, declines to let go. Germany realizes that it is France that must be defeated if the war is to be won.
 England plays the part of 6 pigmy. En gland has expended more time in talk, in predictions of the future, in the ultimate result of phantom drives, in what England is going to do after the war is over, and so far England has played an in different second fiddle, while France has done the most spectacular fighting in the history of the Latin republic. France declines to believe that the kaiser acknowledges failure at Verdun. France is proud of her sacrifices made to impede the German advance, but France does not believe that this de- fense has been sufficiently inn pressive to discourage the war lord of Europe and turn him back. The Hull, by the French, has been interpreted as merely a cessation of hostilities in order to prepare for a greater attempt against the devoted city on the Mouse.
 The French in times of peace are essentially tempermental, artistic, joy laying, volatile. Many, because of the stories of Paris life. have looked lightly upon the French, When Paris was flooded with the famous and at the same time tragic overflow of the Seine, when historic build ings were being undermined, when the destruction of Paris was threatened, gondolas were imported from Venice and Paris celebrated a Venetian night in which pleasure ran riot and death and destruetion were laughed at,
 When the fate of France hangs in the balance these same Frenchmen show spirit of fight unsurpassed by any nation in the world. Their pluck, en-

BUILDING THE RIGHT SORT OF
 NEEGRRORHCOD

IT you, hlnd Reader, would like to spend your days in the Happy Valley, if Friendship Neighborhood appeals to you, Tiff there is a response in your heart to the idea of a group com rade-neighbors bearing one an- others pleasures. then there is a far better thing for you to do than to try to move to some heighborhood where such con- Sitions already exist. Rather inc thing to do is to make such conditions exist in the neighbor- hood where you live. What we | heed in the South indeed is more pf the spirit of genuine love for Me communities we live in-the j ss,sit. so.~haaptifnl4 exnresseas I 1 " Gilbert Chesfef't- 'sentiy in speaking of his own little English town of Pimlico. Let us study his language:
 It is not enough for a man to disapprove of Pimlico; in that case he would merely cut his own throat or move to Chelsea. Nor certainly is it enough for a nan to approve of Pimlico; for then it will remain Pimlico, which would be awful. The only way out of it seems to be ]or somebody to love Pimlico; 10 love it with a transcendental power. If there arose a man who loved Pimlico, then Pimlico would ride into ivory towers and lolden pinnacles. If men loved /. limlico as mothers love children, arbitrarily because it is theirs, Fimlico in a year or so might be f;irer than Florence.
 And then MT. Chesterton con- chdes with one memorable and meaningful sentence: Men did nt love Rome because she was geat. She was great because trey had loved her.
 This is indeed the sort of sErit of local patriotism that W. need. Let man love his nighborhood as a mother loves hr child arbitrarily because it WIS hers. Because it is our ndghborhood we must love it, and if it has imperfection we mAst not desert it but we must hAestly yearn and strive to mld it month by month and ytar by year into the ideal that W cherish for it in our, heart. Ad if but one man in your nGghborhood set out with faith al1 patience to work out such arideal, others will come to his ai and the power of light over dskness, of good over evil, WI sooner or later lend him stength and victory that the thughtless man might never eNect, As the poet has we'll sad;
 Be noble and the nobleness that
 lies

 dead

Travellers arriving here from Laredo,

Colonel Roosevelt Is Waiting for State

New York, June 1.-THE New York

Colonel Roosevelt will make a state
ment early next week endorsing
Charles Evans Hughes. This was pos
itively asserted last night by a man
who took an active part in negotia-
tons intended to bring together the
Republican candidate and the leader
of the Progressives
Colonel Roosevelt's expected state
ment is to follow the declaration of
principles which Mr.. Hughes will
make after he is formally notified on
Monday of his nomination. This was
taken to mean that the statement of
Mr.. Hughes will contain a rebuke to
German-American interference in
American politics and a characterize
ton of hyphenism sufficiently clear
and vigorous to suit Mr.. Roosevelt
