BOYS WILL BE URGED TO FINISH
EDUCATION.

Returning to Frankfort from the
meeting of the National Security
League in New York, State Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction V. O.
Gilbert said that two policies were
decided on at the meeting of vast i'm
portance to the State. The first is
that the young men of the nation
who are in high schools and colleges
will be encouraged to remain in
school until they have completed
their courses. The reason assigned
is that the United States needs the
services of we'll educated men and
women now more than ever before.
The second policy is that all schools
of the State and nation shall be
brought into hearty cooperation for
the purpose of educating the children
in schools as to what are the real
needs of the nation, such as the saw
ing and producing of foodstuffs.
Speakers will be furnished by the
league upon request for any part of
the State, at the expense of the
league.

WILL IT EVER STOP?

Residents of Pleasant street are
anxiously wondering if the unneces-
sary noise campaign will ever reach
Paris. Pleasant street has literally
become speedway for speedmaniacs.
Vigorous complaints and protests
have been voiced by THE NEWS re-
garding automobile speeding on that
thoroughfare, but there seems to be
no recourse. At night between the
hours of nine and midnight the
offenders are particularly active.

The late Richard Harding Davis
was a great believer in work. I'm
mediately after breakfast, refusing to
smoke a cigar, refusing to. glance at
the morning paper, he would shut
himself up and work like beaver.
Entertaining at his West Chester
home a rather lazy artist, Mr.. Davis
said to him one day:
You're just like a girl 1 know.
You dream your work instead of do
ing it
"'Do you know girl like that?'
said the artist eagerly. L wish you'd
introduce me to her. We ought to be
congenial.'
"'Yes, indeed said Mr.. Davis,
you'd make a spendid couple. You
could keep yourself everlastingly
busy illustrating the stories she
doesn't write with the pictures you
don't paint"

THE PRIMARY ELECTION

Tomorrow, Saturday, Aug. 4, will
be a day of fear and trembling for
some, and day of rejoicing for some
The Democratic primary election,
which has been on the way for sew
eral months, will by that time be I'M
der way, and the voters of the city
and county will be exercising the
right of suffrage at the polls.
Voters are not eligible to vote in
a party primary unless they are bona
.fde members of that party and regis
tered as such. Republicans cannot
vote for Democratic nominations in
the primary to be held tomorrow.
Women have the right to vote in
the race for County Superintendent
of Schools and there are indications
that a goodly number will take ad-
vantage of the opportunity. The wo-
men of Paris cannot vote unless they
have been duly registered, and quite
a number of them have registered.
The women outside of the city are
not required to register, and any of
them who desire to vote can do so. AS
a nomination is equivalent to an elec-
ton the voters tomorrow should be
very careful as to their choice.
According to law a party is entitl-
ed to ballots in the primaries pro-
vided that in the last general cleo
ton 1t .polled as many as twenty per
cent of the total vote. Only Repub-
lican and Democratic parties are eli
gible, as the Progressives of 1912 are
practically nil in this State, and the
others polled only scattered vote in
the State.
Let every man go to the polls and
vote as his conscience and best in
terests dictate. He owes no man any
thing else in a political way.
The ballots for the election were
delivered to County Clerk Patton
Wednesday, afternoon.
Voters are warned not to leave any
blank spaces on the ballot where q
candidate has no opposition, as he
must qualify for the nomination.

Yes, and he valued them. But were
there no obligations? Did he owe moth

How he answered that question in his
early manhood has already been stated.
High ideals, indeed. determined his
action all along through life. In public
Office his administration Of affairs was
without spot or stain. Dignif1ed in
manner, he was always approachable
and a wise counsellor. No one ques-
toned his integrity. His own physi-
cal sufferings directed his attention to
the sufferings of others. With the
work of the American Red Cross he
was in closest touch from its organi-
cation. The ravages of the white
plague enlisted his sympathies and
his efforts to lessen and prevent
those ravages were freely given in
