Mountain advocate. (Barbourville, Ky.) 1904-1935, 1917-06-15
SETTLED DOWN


corning w. H. Mcdonald, who
was candidate for the Rcpubli-
can nomination for the office of
Clerk of the County Court. In
one of them he said that he was
meditating as to whether he
would re-enter the race; in the
other he would leave it to his
friends. He has seen MANY of
them and tits the general opinion
that he could make the race and
be elected but he has decided not
to enter again. He came off the
track to take a position with
Union college: He took that
position and would have STAYED
: had it not been that to do so he
would have to be under the direct
dictation of one man, from
whom he would have to get per-
mission to leave the grounds,
even in case of sickness or to go
to a fire, and as he is not accus-
toned to having a guardian, and
the days of slavery are over, he
could not bear the thought OF
placing himself in bondage after
having had fourty- seven years of
freedom, going and coming at will
administering to the sick and dis
tressed. going to Church when
he thought it was right nd
proper to do so and staying away
when he felt that he did not want
to 60.
He also advertised the Advo-
cate for sale and has had several
good offers and could sell out
today at a good figure but he has
changed his mind. He may be
criticised for the quick changing
changing of his mind but it has
been said, and truthfully too,
that "a wise man will sometimes
change his mind but a fool has
no mind to change"
He is now down to business
and there so stay. He will not
sell the Advocate; he does not
to. He was born and reared in
this County and has watched
men come and go. He has an
idea now that he will be here
when some men, who have lately
become citizens of this little City,
have gone and will he in the Ad-
vOcate Office to announce to the
public that they have relieved the
City, and the community at large,
of tn burden of their
citizenship. He will be here to
to welcome those who may come
and lament at the thought of
their leaving. We may have some
one that we will want agood word
said about and it may be that we
will want to lay bare the acts of
one who has violated the laws of
God and man; it may be that
psome near and dear friend may
take his leave to that undiscover-
ed Country from whence no trav-
eler has ever returned.
He will. in the future. say
what he believes should be said
about anyone. He has dropped
from the arena of politics and is
going to support men for any
and all places of trust that are
the best qualified to fill them.
No man has lease on Mcdonald;
he left the track in no mans ia
vor and will support whom he
pleases for any and all the offices
to be filled. He stands ready
and willing to assist any and all
who are in distress and will do
all he can for the community. the
Churches, Lodgrs and Schools;
and above all will he try to tell
things as they are and in a way
that he will not have any regrets
at having said them.

N ESSENTIAL FEATURE OF
SUNDAY SCHOOL WORK.

While We must get the pupils to
the sunday school before they can
be enlisted getting numbers Is not
the chief aim OF the sunday school.
That is the first step which the
school OF the First Baptist Church
is taking for next Sunday. We are
then ready 10 begin the real work
tor the advancement OF both teacher
and pupil In the eaching OF the
Word That this may be accom-
plished two things are essential
prayer and work. our superiniend
ent OF public schools gives as a
qualification OF the Standard Pub
lie school Teacher, that he BE in
touch with the Divine How much
more than should the teacher OF
Gods word have this qualification.
A band OF our teachers are joining
In daily prayer this week for tho
school next Sunday, as well as put
ting forth their best efforts in work
ing 10 enlist members for the school.
When this has been accomplished,
We are ready 40 begin real work
and prayer for the pupil and the
work, which should continue to be
the most important factor In all our
efforts.
To any and all who are not now in
Sunday School We extend a cordial
invitation 10 be with us on Rally

And hey tell me In their music
That whene'er want 20 start
They u show me how 10 take it,
The road TO the heart

And comes out on a hill.
And there are quiet woodlands
Where suEbelms lie 40 still.
And now the path is hloomy,
And now meath leafy shade

As well as blossom time.

And 10 Is June forever
For every heart that goes
To tasks OF daily beauty

The green path for LIES leading
And so Co make the start

And by the babbling stream.

It is a good old safe, despite its

WRITE RIGHT NOW.

Back in the east, which has felt
the welcome touch Of the gilded
brush of prosperity far more than
the west, the home folks are begin
ming to plan for their next summers
vacation. More easterners will be in
a position to take the long trip to the
Pacific coast than ever before. More
will take the trip. Next summer will
see the greatest westward tourist
travel of all time. Fasteners have
the money and the See America
First" movement will irresistibly
sweep them westward.
Ashlanders should take advantage
OF the leisure moments allowed dur
ing the slack winter months to con-
duct systematic campaign to induce
their eastern friends to visit Ashland
this coming summer. Each and every
visitor is valuable to Ashland purely
as source OF u rev uOllars lhconhe'
And each visitor will be doubly valu-
able to Ashland during the coming
season for the reason that the entire
northwest is awakening to the value
of the tourist crop and it will be the
most enterprising community which
during the coming season lays a
foundation for resort future. Ash
land has attractions to offer. Ash
landers can do no better than to
write letters now to all eastern
friends and acquaintances urging a
visit to the coast and to Ashland this
summer.
