QUICK ACTION

Ernest Newton who is secret
airy of the Insurance Department
of the K. of P's at this place, re
ceived a check for $1,000 90 Nav
9Th in favor of Mrs. E. 81. Wyatt
of Nortonville, in settlement of
Insurance carried by her late
husband. This check was re-
ceived only six days after final
proofs we're mailed to the home
Office at Indianapolis and estab-
fishes so far as we know a new
record for quick settlement after
proof of death. That thousand
dollars will be a great blessing
to that widowed mother and
little three year old SOD, who was
left alone and without anv sup
port. That beats being sent away
to an Orphans Home though eV-
er so good.

SOUTH WILL HAVE The
GREATEST MONUMENT

Ten years from now-or possibly
in only years-the South will
have for all time the most won
derful and enduring monument
that the world has ever seen to
commemorate the military en-
deavors (and the sacrifices) of a
people. 1t is the memorial to the
soldiers of the Ooufederat States.
The $4,000 women who make up
the United Daughters of the
Confederacy have taken a whole
mountain as sculptor's stone for
permanently honoring their great
Beside 1t the pyramids will dwin-
die; and even the Acroplis of
Athens will seem a thing OF
dwarf proportions.
Stone Mountain, sixteen miles
northeast from Atlanta, Ca, is
the spot selected. 1t rises bald
and alone from out a natural
park of primeval trees. 1t is
about two miles long and 700 feet
high. Here the work has already
begun, Gu'zoh Borglum, sculp--
tor in the mastodonic, is in
charge, and the preliminary
drawings have been made in his
Nav York studio. His is a gil
gantic task, a decade of years and
so, 900, 900 in money will be re-
CURED for its completion.
The work is to reconstruct the
great warrior figures of half a
century ago in the everlasting
stone, and in colossal proportions
carve them in high and full relief,
some 1000 strong, marching
across the face of the mountain
in sublime pageantry for all the
world to see in future ages.

Cocktails

The old way of doing buiness
was to take a prospective pur-
chaser, especially if he were
from the country, and elbow him

leading business houses had an
unlimited expense account for
such use, for this was the ac-
cepted method of landing a big
order. Standards have risen in
recent years aud the best con-
Germs would frown upon the sale
man who had to take customers
to the red light district, the low
class theatre, the saloon, or the
card table to get an order.
There are some houses, however,
that still encourage their en-
ployees to follow this lover
standard of buiness morality
and efficiency.
A still more remarkable situa
ton is disclosed in the plea of
"guilty" made by the high
