the gospel has all power, they do not believe that their friend is lost out side of Jesus Christ; they do not be- lieve it is necessary to give their hearts to Jesus Christ, they do not believe they shall appear before God on the Judgment day. Therefore they are idle and say it is not nec- essary-because they lack belief.
 "In the scripture lesson, have read this centurion came to Jesus because he had witnessed the life of Jesus and said: My daughter is even now dead, but if you will come and speak the word. she shall live And Jesus arose and started down the street And as he went along with the throng a woman touched him be- cause she understood that Jesus had the power to heal. She said If I do but touch his garment, I shall be made whole This was a superstitious idea and was but the husk of living faith. When Jesus responded with quick sym pathy to the mute appeal. and when he said: Who touched me, there was only sympathy in his voice. At the heart of her superstition, Jesus saw her faith and healed her.
 "A man with the mighty faith of God can set city like this on fire-can send the city Christward and not he l. ward. If we do not believe we permit our friends and neighbors to go the way of death instead of the way of life. Life us believe and Jesus will grant us the power to help and bless.
 And when Jesus went into this Jew s home, there were the musicians to drive the evil spirits away from the rest of the family and here were the mourn CTS, and Jesus Said: Put these people out for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth,' and they laughed him to scorn. The power of death was in the hands of Jesus and he knew that if he said, Daughter, arise that God would give that power; and Jesus was in such harmony and fellowship with the Father, he knew the Father would grant him the power that he asked. So Jesus went to the bedside Of the daughter.-Some do not believe in the resurrection, now notice.-The spirit was not in the body of that girl Jesus took her by the hand and with the faith he had in his Father, he said, Arise and the spirit immediately came back into that body The spirit was not in that body before he spoke that word. Where was her spirit? Her spirit was in her cold body, but ready to en- ter that glorified body when he said Arise
 And when Jesus departed, two blind men followed him and they said: Thou Son of David, have mercy on us, hear us and give us our sight" And so Jesus went into the house and the men went into the house and Jesus said: Do you believe that I am able to heal you? and they said, Yea, Lord And Jesus touched their eyes and said ac- cording to your faith be it unto you And their eyes were opened. Those men had faith in Jesus Christ.
 Many of our people have heard Brother Oinslee and they have said, What sermons, what messages that man has. he believes in God.

MISS cHINN ADDRESSES
MEETING AT COURT HOUSE

An audience composed of women and
many of the sterner sex gathered at
the court house in this city Saturday
afternoon, to attend the patriotic meet
ing, which had been called at the sug-
gestion of the Paris Federation of Wo-
mems Clubs, of which Mrs. Fanniebelle
Sutherland is the worthy president.
AS president of the organization
which had suggested the meeting, Mrs.
Sutherland presided. She pointed out
in explaining the objects of the meet
ing that it had been called for the
express purpose of considering what
would eventually prove as great ques-
ton of concern to the country as the
prospect of war itself-the practice OF
economy in the households of the city
and the county, and the conservation
of foodstuffs, not absolute stinginess,
but economy wisely and judiciously ad-
ministered and fostered. She appeal
ed to the patriotism of those present
and asked them by individual example
to help along the movement, in which
the women of the country were so
greatly interested and in which they
proposed to do their share.
She told of the work that is being
done throughout the county by the
girls of the Canning Club, and closed
her remarks by introducing to the au-
dience the principal speaker of the at
ternoon, Miss Aubyn Chinn, of the
Agricultural Extension Division of the
University of Kentucky, at Lexington
Miss Chinn, who has had a large and
varied experience as a trained worker
and who is an authority on economics
is a INST convincing and eloquent man
ner. presented to her auditors an expo,
sition of Cheap Substitutes for Foods
That Are Scarce" and Grain and Veg
etables as Substitutes for Meat and
Bread" Miss Chinn is a pleasing and
fascinating speaker, and held the un
divided attention of the assembly from
the beginning to the close of her truly
common-sense talk. At the conclusion
of her address a number of women
came forward and signified their will
ingness to become members of a Home
Demonstration Club that will hold
monthly meetings for free of charge
instruction by a representative from
the Agricultural Extension Division.

NEW MANAGER.

Mr.. Chas. Clarke. who was manager
of the New Independent Tobacco Ware
house last season. having resigned, the
Board of Directors at a recent meet
ing, selected Mr.. Dan w. Peed, ST., to
assume the responsibility.
Mr.. Clarke's large interests in his
farm near North Middletown, requiring
all of his time, necessitated his resig-
nation He retains his interest in the
company, however, and will remain q
member of the directorate.
Mr.. Peed has had almost a lifetime
experience in the tobacco business, and
has been connected at various times
with enterprises in the tobacco line.
He has been a grower and buyer, and
eminently successful as both. He will
bring to the Independent House the
ripe judgment and experience of a man
to whom the tobacco business is as an
open book, which he has learned from
planting the seed to cashing the big
checks for the product.

FARMERS AND BUSINESS
MEMS PATRIOTIC MEETING


What started as bit of pleasantly
among a kn0 of business men and
farmers on the street yesterday, may
become crystalized into a movement
fraught with great possibilities for
good to the people of Bourbon county
A kidding" match started among the
members of the crowd who were CIV
ing Mr.. Jonas We'll, the stock buyer
good time, when to their surprise
Mr.. We'll made n fervid patriotic
speech, in which he took them TO
task for not raising more foodstuffs
on their farms. Mr.. We'll made an
address lasting nearly an hour, during
which time those who had come to
scott remained to praise.
AS result of the speech the farm
ers became imbued with a sense Of
duty and patriotism left undone. They
held meeting and appointed Mr.. N.
Ford Brent as committee of one to
confer with the county officials and
business men of Paris. 1t is proposed
to hold a rousing big patriotic mass
meeting of ramers and business men
in the court house in Paris next Sat-
urday afternoon at three o'clock. The
object of the meeting will be to bring
the farmers of Bourbon county to a
realization of the serious shortage in
foodstuffs, to raise more, to provide
the labor for so doing, and to put the
lOafing element to work where they
may do some good.
! The movement has been launched
in all seriousness and earnestness
and Mr.. Brent as the committee of one
undoubtedly did the right thing, en-
listing the aid of the press in giving
publicity to the movement.
/ We may have the men, the guns
and the money" as some one has
aptly stated, but it is a solemn truth
that IAN army fights on its stom
achs," and an ill-fed soldier makes a
poor soldier. The farmers of the
county, Mr.. Brent said, had been sud
denly brought to realization of theil
unpreparedness by Mr.. Wells speech
and they now propose to get busy
and raise more foodstuffs.

THE LEXINGTON RACES.

Friday, the sixth day of the races at
tendance from all over the State.
Paris and Bourbon County lovers of
the sport were there in large numbers.
Some came home with expenses, while
others whose lucky star was in the
ascendant, fingered several more fives
and tens than they took up with them.
The form players generally had bad
day with the card. Postmaster, in the
second race, was the longest-priced
horse of the day, paying 80 to 1.
Alexander Joseph, Greek, who con-
ducts a shoe-shining parlor on Main
street, in Lexington, won a three
horse combination for which his 81
brought him back $699.20. He was
the only man that selected Eastern
Princess, Opportunity and Intone. The
two-horse combination Of Bedtime
Stories and Sosfus paid s24415.
The winners of the seven events
were: First race, Chieftain; second
race, Postmaster; third race, Bedtime
Stories; fourth race, (substituted)
Sosius; fifth race, Eastern Princess;
sixth race, Opportunity; seventh race.
Intone.
Saturday, the sixth day of the Lex
ington meet, proved the downfall of
many of the knowing ones who were
sure they could play two dollars and
reap a harvest They had the harvest
all right, but it was one of regrets.
There was large crowd at the
track, and the seven events were we'll
run. The track was muddy and the
weather cold and disagreeable. Track
and weather conditions caused many
Withdrawals, interfering seriously with
the running of several events.
Governor Stanley was one of the
most interested spectators at the track
He spent most of the afternoon in the
box of Senator Camden and the
Judges stand. He was called upon to
present the trophy which Senator Cam
den donated to the winner of the race
and after delivering this to Jefferson
Livingston, the owner of Colonel Ven
ME, added that in times of war, horses
were needed as badly as men, and that
the race track was the testing place o!
good mounts for army use and that
Kentuckians mounted on Kentucky
thoroughbreds would hold their own ~
any kind of contention.
The winners of the seven events or
the card were: First race. Stephen
r.; second race, Ebony; third race
Mars Cassidy; fourth race, Colone
Vennie; fifth race, Korbly; sixth race
Bob Hensley; seventh race, Penrod.

A BLANKEO NUISANCE
OR WORSE:

It's a pity that noise-ridden com.
munity hasn't the privilege of explod-
ing a few bombs under these nerve
racking motorcycles that infest Paris
every Sunday, and make the air hid
eous with their unearthly racket!
Sunday several of these sleep-distur-
bers visited Paris in full force, and
more unnecessary racket was never
heard here. The machines began to
pass early in the morning, and the
racket kept up all day.
At noon just as the congregations of
the churches were leaving, a bunch of
these pesky road lice" passed through,
blowing horns, mufflers and exhausts
wide open and making all the noise
these nuisances are capable of.
IL some fellow would invent a land
submarine that could be timed to hit
these machines amidship at the height
of their noise careers and lift them
into the airy space between this and
the next county, he would be worthy OF
a gold medal anda pension for life!
