The late Bishop Dudley Of Kentucky
used to relate with much relish an
amusing experience that he once had
in connection with wailieS At fine
old Virginia homestead where he was
a frequent guest the wahies were al

One morning IA breakfast drew near
an end the tidy little linen coated black
boy who served at table approached
the bishop and asked in low voice:

Come laugh with me. come play with
me-"
The brook said to the child
my arms are full Of bloom for thee,
And all my ways are mild
Come follow me, come learn Of me-
To youth the river said.
I'm show the way of life to thee,
For thee shall lore be spread
Come strive with me, come toll with me. !"
The ocean nailed the man.
Here shalt thou claim thy destiny.
According to life's plan.
If brave thou art the laureed years
Shall end thy earnest quest,
Give thee the JOY that knows no tears
And grant the perfect rest

Mrs. Athey Here Sunday

Mrs. j. o. Atney of Boise, Idaho,
executive secretary of the Idaho AS
ISOLATION for the Study and Proven
ton of tuberculosis, was in the city
Sunday on business connected with
the Idaho association. AS a number
of Boomers Ferry ladies are deeply
interested in the work carried on by
the association a meeting was held
at the high school at three o'clock
Sunday afternoon and Mrs. Athey
told of the work of the organization.
The anti-tubercular organizations
of the United States are finding that
with the United States in war they
will have at least ten times the work
to do. The facilities for the con-
troll and prevention of tuberculosis in
America are VIGOROUSLY lacking and
now that we are in war new problems
must be met and the need is not so
much for new machinery and equip
ment but rather for more of the
various things which have hereto
fore been worked out as the proper
ways and means of controlling tuber-
culosis.
1t is expected that the ladies OF
this district who are interested il
the control and prevention of tuber-
culosis will make an extra specia
effort this year to assist the state
organization in any campaign it may
, undertake.

County Treasurer and Auditor Clash

We are not Informed as to par
ticulars but it is understood that
one day recently County Treasurer
W. T. James INDUCED freely in plain
English which was not in any way
complimentary to the county audi
tor and the conduct of his office and
resulted in the flat refusal of the
treasurer to accept the county tax
rolls as made up by the auditor.
The corrections necessary to be made
will necessitate the scratching out
and changing of large part of one
of the tax rolls and will cause a
delay in sending out the tax notices
in the treasurer's office.

DOUBT PIGMY SUBMARINES
Possible But Not Probable, Naval
Experts Declare.

Pigmy submarines, eighteen feet
long, such as the German raider is re-
ported to have carried, are possible,
but not probable In the view of ma
val experts here.
They said that a vessel so small
could probably do o real effective
work.
1t was pointed out, however, that
the original submarine was only
about thirty feet long, while torpe-
does are about twenty feet long.
Projects for tOrpedoes witt an at
tachment that would float a man ar
ter the missile was fired have been
made, but never successfully put into
general use.
The fact that a torpedo Itself is
about as compact as modern science
can make it-and still have IL highly
effective in marine warfare-made the
experts doubt the story that an eight
en-foot vessel has been constructed
However. II Is recalled that the New
York navy yard now 10 testing q
twenty-eight-foot-th first modern
submersible so small ever made here.
.Henry Ford first advanced the idea
OF a "one-man submarine. His myth
ical vessel was referred to as the
"jitney submarine"
