What Is Home.

Ask the above questionito any per-
eon you chance to meet, who has wan
aered from home, and in nine cases
1ut of ten the answer will be that Home
Is a green spot in memory, center
about which the grandest recollections
- his grief oppressed heart cling with
MI tenderness of youths first love.
Home has an influence which is strong
er than death. 1t is law to our hearts
and binds us with spell which neith-
er time nor change can break. Not
merely friends and kindred render that
home SO dear, but the very hills and
streams throw a charm around the
place Of ones nativity. 1t is no wonder
the grandest harps are tuned to sing OF
Home Sweet Home" No songs are
sweeter than those heard among the
boughs that share our parents dwell
ing, when some evening hour found us
gay as the birds that warbled Ger US
We may wander away and mingle with
the worlds strife, from new associates
and fancy we have forgotten the land
of our birth; but as we listen perhaps
to the summer wind, the remembrance
of other days come over the soul and
fancy bears us back to the childhood
days and home. We may find Chimes
as beautiful and friends as dear. but
they will not usurp. the place of Home
Sweet Home"

The evening is the hour when crafty
Satan breaches most eloquently II is
also the hour when he can gather the
largest and most attentive audience. In
our great cities Satan's churches are
crowded every evening. But fortu-
nately, the evening hour is also the
hour in which the good angel can gath
er the largest audience and he who
would hattie Satan's influence must
preach in the evening. The evening is
the hour when the protesting power
of home is greatest; II is the hour when
its protection is most needed.
A mother who really has the good OF
her children at heart, will teach them

and home is what she makes II. II she is
illiterate. her home partakes OF this
quality; II she is immoral her home
cannot be the abode of virture; II she
is coarse, refinement does not dwell
where she resides. If she is cultured,
pure, refined. those qualities will char
acterize the home which she creates.
The higher the degree Of her culture,
her purity her refinement, the more
, will these qualities characterize the
home of which she is the center.

If you look around, you will see the
men who are the most able to live the
rest of their days without work are the
men who work the hardest.
Don't be afraid of killing yourself
with oyerwork. They die sometimes,
but it's because they quit work at p.

is the interval that kills, my son. The
work gives you an appetite for your
meals, it lends solidity to your slum-

There are young men who do NOT

them. 1t does not know their names
even; it simply speaks of them as "old

doesn't know that they are there.

Continued from page ~

Senator Vardaman has made "s.nce
the declaration of war has been
against his party and government
"If you are a supporter of the peer
less president of this great republic" 4"
declared Mr.. Harrison, "you cannot
consistently support the junior SEN
ator from Mississippi. If you love
your country, which was born in the
womb of war and nurtured and pro-
tected by the blood of your heroic
ancestors, his reeking record cannot
command your suffrage. If you love
liberty and freedom, the ood-bought
legacy of every free born American,
you cannot reward the man who gives
aid and comfort to the enemies of the
government that insures liberty and
freedom" "
Mr.. Harrison said that if Senator
Vardaman and those with whom he
stood had co-operated with the ad'
ministration in passing the armed
neutrality bill, Germany would have
appreciated our fixity of purpos, te
maintain our rights, and in all
probability would have respected
them.
Senator Vardaman's term expires
in 1919 and the primary will be hello
next August.

Labor Scarce Here.

There is great scarcity of labor
here, and any able-bodied man who
is willing to work can easily secure
employment at unusually high wages.
This situation results from local
prosperity and from the fact that
hundreds of negroes have left this
section during the past year to seek
homes in the north. Local mills and
factories are rushed with orders,
several of them running both night
and day, while farmers in the sur
rounding country are anxious to Sc
