GREAT ASSET IS ACCURACY
Employers Are ,Siways In Need Of the
Services Of Men With sharp
Eyes.

Accuracy is not faculty. 1t is
habit. A man can school himself to
look at things with 4 sharp, clear
eye, and to remember what he sees
without anything being omitted or
added. He becomes habitually accu-
rate, and without any special effort.
On the other hand, men Of loose
perceptions and careless habits find
it almost impossible to be accurate,
no matter how hard they try, OBJ
serves the Rochester Democrat and
Chronicle. An idea Of the value and
method Of accuracy may be gained
from the following advice given by
Ruskin on the simple matter Of read
ing a book:
"You must get in the habit of
looking intensely at words, and as
sure yourself of their meaning, syl-
liable by syllable-nay, letter by let
ter. You might read all the books
in the British museum, if you could
live long enough, and remain an ut
terly illiterate, uneducated person
but if you read ten pages of a good
book letter by letter-that is to say
with real accuracy-you are forever
more in some measure an educated
person."
Young men and women who mus
earn their living ought to realize
how much the habit Of accuracy adj
vances them in the estimation Of
their employers. A person may lacl
brilliancy, but if, within, his limita
tons, he is absolutely reliable, HI
will always find somebody who need
his services. Perhaps it might b
truthfully said that nothing aston
ishes an employer like man O.
woman who can be depended on t.
do certain work with perfect accu
racy.

The Kentuckian on JAM l, 1917 rounds out its
18th year. Under normal conditions the year 1916
v oud have been year of unusual prosperity but
as the public is aware the eXorbitant and unprece~
dent price charged for News Print Paper cut a
Leep hole in the profits of all newspapers and many
unable to stand losses were put out of business.
The Kentuckan enters the year with print
paper that cost $54 ton at this time last year now
costing about $40 for the same amount of paper
not as good How long these conditions will con-
tinue cannot be foretod.
Many newspapers have advanced rates but in
order that the circulation may not be lessened by
higher price the Kentuckan w i'll still be sent for
$500 year. the old price. 1t will be necessary
though to adhere rigidy to the cash system, since
more than S1.00 must be paid in advance for the.
paper upon which we print 156 papers and the cost
of printing leaves but little profit out of the second
dollar. We are asking our old subscribers to stand
by us in this crisis by renewing promptly. Adver-
Users will also be asked to pay slightly hphey>
rate for space, which is all newspaper has to sell
outside of it's subscriptions. We trust the adyer-

RoUMANIAN FARMS ARE SMALL

There are a million farms in Roa-
mania and only few thousand large
ones; but the few big land owners
have more land than the many small
ones. The average size of the mil
lion small farms is eight acres.
while that of the 4,471 large ones is
1900 acres, says the National Geo
graphic magazine. With so many
small farms naturally a prolific
farming population has little money
to buy machinery, and must be con-
tent with the ways and methods of
past generations. In times Of peace
the Wallschians go into Hungary by
the tens Of thousands to help with
the sowing and reaping.
