The two boys rejected were reject

We picked up eleven cars of men

YOUTH

Youth is not time of life; it is
a state of mind. 1t is not matter
of ripe. cheeks, red lips and supple
knees; it is a temper of the will, q
quality of the imagination, a vigor
Of the emotions. 1t is the freshness
or The deep springs os life.
Youth means a temperamental pre-
dominance of courage over timidity.
Of the appetite for adventure over
the love of ease. This often exists
in man of fifty more than in a
boy of twenty.
Nobody grows old by merely liv-
inc d number of years. People grow
old only by deserving their ideals.
Years wrinkle the skim. but to
give up enthusiasm wrinkles the
soul.
Worry, doubt, self-distrust, fear
and despair-these are the long years
that bow the heart and turn the
greening spirit back to dust.
Whether sixty or sixteen, there is
In every human1being's heart the lure
az wonder, the sweet amazement Of
ahs stars and. at stls-like things and
thoughts, the undaunted challenge
Of events, the hEfailing child-like
40. elite Of what ne and the joy Of
the game of living. You are as
Young as your faith, as old as your
douot; as young as your self-confl-
sIence. as old as your fear; as young
- vur hope and old as your despair.
In the central place Of your heart
IS an evergreen tree; its name is
Rove. So long as it flourishes you
are young. When it dies you are
Old. In the central place Of your
heart IS 3 wireless station; SO long
As It receives messages Of beauty
bone, cheer, grandeur, courage and
rover from God and from your fell
bowman, solo ngy on are young.

NOT FIXING COTTON PRICE I
TO HELP LIBERTY BONDS

1t is believed that the determine
tion not to fix the price of cotton
will have good tffect on the sale
Of Fourth Liberty Loan bonds in the
cotton picking States. That the pro-
posal was unjust from the beginning
was evident but as the Memphis
Scimitar says, the danger lays in
the apathy of those most vitality
concerned. That paper "feels that
the opponents Of price fixing scored
a great victory in bringing to the
attention Of the president the real
facts in the case, and relying upon
his wisdom and his judgment for
the just verdict which he rendered.
Continuing along the same lines, the
Scimitar says:
HThe South is indebted in no small
measure to Senator Mcclellan, Sena-
tor Robinson and Senator Smith, of
South Carolina, who took leading
part in this fight, with the support
Of practically all Of their Southern
colleagues.
'Now, just word to our farmer
fritnd: This is a good year for him.
Last year was a good year. He is
going to get reasonable profit
from his cotton crop. He is going
to be able to lay by some money
this fall. The government is con-
siderate of him. 1t has given him a
chance. What is the farmer going
to do for the government in exchange
for what the government is doing for
him? This is mighty fine time to
show his appreciation. The fourth
liberty loan campaign is now upon US.
In many localities responses of the
farmer will determine the showing
OF the county in which he lives.
Some of his friends in Washington
said during the price-fixing agitation
chat if price were fixed on cotton
the farmer would not be able to buy
liberty bonds. The assumption was
that if the price were not fixed that
the farmer would buy bonds. He
has been pledged by his accredited
representatives to do all IN his power
in helping with this enterprise. We
do not believe that he will fail. The
country people are loyal and patriotic
to the core. They follow Woodrow
Wilson with confidence not enjoyed
by the head of any other nation.
They yield to his request as though
it were the written law. He is asking
them to buy bonds. We believe they
will OBSERVE this request as they
have observed all others in the past.
