We know that music is pleasant,
and home is not home where there
are no songs or sweet harmonies;
but a knowledge of the piano will
not help a woman discharge her
wifely duties, and a smattering of
French or an ability to waltz grace
fully will do but lite towards pre-
pairing a palatable dinner for a hus-
band when he comes home hungry.

GOOD MORNING

A CHEEKY "Good Morning" often
sends a ray of sunshine streaming
through the innermost recesses of a
household, resting there all the live
long day, and again follows hasten
ing footsteps into the mart of bust
ness, lighting up and Frightening the
way Of the world as it goes. A
hearty "Good night" often soothes
many a troubled mind to rest and
heals the wounds which have either
come anew to a struggling soul OF
been re-opened by the harsh words
or deeds that are spoken or done in
season or out Of season, as the daily
battle Of our life progresses.

CLIPPINGS FROM THE
SnAGTOWN TORCHLIGHT

GONE HENCE-Monday after
noon we received word that old John
Rudy Of the White Horse Still had
been found dead in his bed. and on
Fastening to the scene we discover
ed the report to be true. While the
Coroner's jury returned a verdict of
general collapse of the system, we
think we know the true reason of
his sudden taking off. Old John
was an ambitious man. He didn't
want to be postmaster but he did
want to invent a new and thrilling
moonshine cocktail which would be
thoroughly identified with Arkansaw.
In fact he wanted to shine in the
moonshine line as brightly as we do
in the journalistic. The compound
he was after was to he known the
world over as the "Coonshine Cock
tall" and to be we'll worthy of this
great and glorious commonwealth.
To our own knowledge the deceas-
ed has been experimenting long be-
fore the state went bone-dry with
whisky, brandy, cognac, champagne,
cider, beer, wines, quinine, morphine,
and various acids and drugs. On
several occasions he has almost hit
it. His own taste was to be the test,
and we think the collapse was
brought about by the action Of so
many decoctions on his system.
Either that or he finally struck
something that tickled him to death.
He was not an angel, but he was
enterprising and full Of desire to
help bring Arkansaw to the front,
and it is needless to say that we
were one of the pallbearers at his
funeral Wednesday afternoon.

as an author and producer, George
M. Cohan has finally turned to the
silent drama as new field of con-
quest, so to speak. In order to dis
play his very best efforts before the

Just recently been completed in Mr..
Cohan's New York Studio and will

Mt. Sterling movie fans will be
pleased to know that Mr.. Cohan
will have as his leading lady in this
his first photoplay, beautiful Mar

of Josie Richards, the pretty steno-
grapher at the Jones' chewing gum

George Beban and his company,
during the filming of the Morosco-
Paramount production of "The Mar
cellini Millions" which will be seen
at The Tabb on We'd, Aug. Is, had,
for a few minutes, the laugh on a
local attorney. Later, the incident
was not so funny. Mr.. Beban's
screen wife sues him for divorce,
giving as a reason ''incompatibility
of temperament" That the papers
might be properly drawn, a lawyer
was employed and after three days
the lawyer returned with four close
ly typewriter pages of legal matter
pertaining to the case. 1t was pro-
nOunced by all who read it to be a
masterpiece of legal literature, but
only the word ''incompatibility" was
photographed. Beban and his COM
pany had a great deal of fun pie
turing the lawyer pacing the floor
debating this legal document and
when he requested a private running
for the benefit of some of his friends
whom he had told of this master
piece, he was granted the privilege.
When only the word "incompati-
bility" was shown on the screen
they all had good laugh at the
attorneys expense. But when the
attorney presented a bill for $1,000
the laugh was turned on the com
pany.

Three Years of High Prices
for Live Stock

Rinse more live stock: there will i
be high prices for at least three
years to come; this is an emera ems y
message To farmers and stock grow
ers from G. Howard Davidson.
president and chairman If the
executive committee of the National
Agriculture Society.
Says Mr. Davidson insny jude 4
ment there will be a scarsity Of
nearly all kinds of live stock for
some time to come and farmers and
stocktnen should make their plans
accordingly This means that there
should be no selling of young animals
or female breeding stock merely be-
cause current prices are high.
Better money can be made By work
ing On the understanding that high
prices for hogs, cattle. sheep and
other live stock will rule for at least
three or four years To come
There is no doubling this in view
of the knowledge that Europe has
last over so per cent nf its. live
stock~that the whole world in fact is
suffering from q serious shortage In
all kinds Of food animals.
t There is so much concern over q
possible wheat or potato shortage
that the public is forgetting the
meat. situation. As matter of
fact, il every effort were made to
increase the conntry's supply Of
cattle. it would be at least three
years before solid results would be
apparent. AS regards sheep, it
would require at least two years to
make any considerable increase in
numbers, even though every eve
were held back for breeding pur-
poses.
The best possible program for
the farmer from the standpoint OF
either patriotism or profit is to
raise more live stock and to work on
three or four year program, at
least.

COPPER CONES BACK"
 IN SPITE OF OPINIONS

In the period following the collapse of the Secretan syndicate. around 1889 to 1898. the public believed that high copper prices were matters of past history and that a comeback of the copper shares was improbable if not impossible. From 1899 10 1901 inclu- sive. however. copper sold at prices ranging from 1S to l9ik cents and averaging almost r cents. and during this period copper stocks climbed to dizzy heights In 1902 the metal de- clined 70 II cents. recovering the fol- lowing year 10 15h cents. selling at 2O cents in 1905. 25 cents in 1906 and 26ls cents in 1907. Then the price declined again to 12l@ cents. recovered to 14i% cents in 1909. advanced to IS cents in 1912 and dropped to llh cents in 1914. on the outbreak of the war in Europe.

 For nine years the association con ducted it's work in the bungalow home of MT. Walter Douglas, which was giy en over to it at a nominal rental In spite of the comparatively small quar- ters. the association accomplished much and endeared itself in the hearts of hundreds of girls in the district Al ways around the bungalow there was a spirit of friendship and home. and it was not long before the association became recognized as one of the best organizations in the district

Men may go di- rectly from their bath departmen- to the boys building, where their ASS steel lockers are located and then through the open foyer to the circular stairs leading to the gym in the main building.
 The boys exit from their separate bath rooms to the swimming pool in the main building or the gymnasium through the open foyer The two con nections are so arranged that there will be no conflict in the two depart ments, and so ideally planned archi- tectually that they appear to be one building.

 Among the various classes and meet ings held under the supervision of the association in its new building are: Monday Current Events Class. Tweu- tieth Century Club. Monday Music Club, Ukelele Club. Chautauqua Circle Women's Political Victory Club. Eng fish class and others. The attendance at all of these meetings is good and the interest taken in them proves that the girls of the Warren district apprs- ciate the opportunities laid before them.
 The association is in close touch with all the churches of the city and in this way the religious work of the ir- stitution is never neglected. the minis ters and church members of the vari- ous cities doing everything in their power to assist.
 Miss Mover in Charge
 Although there is no regularly or ganized employment bureau. positions have been found for many girls and it is probable that in the near future some officer of the association will be placed in charge of a young women's employment bureau.
 Through the kindness of friends of the association, a camp was estah- lished in the mountains last year. with accommodations for twenty girls at one time. and seventy.eight girls were thus enabled to enjoy a vacation in the back country at a nominal expense.
 Miss Carlotta Mover is general sec retary of the association here. and her work has proven that she not only has the interests of the girls at heart but is eminently qualified to make life seem more bright for them. The off cers of the association include many of the most prominent women in the community and all deserve much cred it for the success of the association

FULL. YEAR GOOD PRICES
 MEANS GOOD EARNINGS

X full year of 2S 10 SO-cent copper will mean net earnings of g to 30 per cent on the prices at which copper shares were selling when the year 1916 closed. If the surplus accumu- lations of the producing companies are added to prospective earnings for the current year it will be found that somewhere around 5O per cent of those market valuations can be put in the category of "realized and reasonably assured" Carry this problem a little further and you will be impressed by the tact that copper stocks at 50 per cent of their Dec. 29 prices would he exceedingly cheap no matter how low the metal might be forced.
