Goldsmith a Poor Physician.

There Is a long list of men distin-
guIshed In various spheres Of life, who
began their careers In medicine. One
of the most striking examples is that
of Or. Oliver Goldsmith, though no.
body knows him by that title today.
AS a medical man the creator Of 1.-THE
Vicar of Wakefield" was held in such
low repute that his appointment as a
physician TO the East India company
was revoked before he got the chance
to tamper with any ones ailments,
says the New York Telegraph. Even
when he presented himself at Sur
geons' hall as an applicant for the
humble position Of mate In n naval
hospital he failed to pass the exam

Fresh Water From Oceans Depths

On the coast of Bahreln island, In
the Persian gulf, there is no fresh wa
ter, so the inhabitants Of that very hot
climate resort to getting drinking wa
ter from the bottom of the harbor
where there are springs Of pure water
that well up through the sand. Knowl.
edge Of the location of these springs
is handed down from generation tc
generation. Divers equipped with wa.
ter bags made of skins descend from
boats and catch the water as 1t flows
fresh from the sands by inyerting their
bags over the current of the spring.

DEMOCRACY In THE HOME.

In these trying days, there is great
need for cultiyatirg and stimulstlpg
democratic ideals in the home. To be
content with what you have, while a
large majority OF the worlds popula.
ton is undergoing the privstions OF
war, is indeed virtue, but there is
need OF return to the old fashioned
economy in home management, espe-
cially in these times.
Love of display-to outshine their
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. TO be the sole amoi.
ton of many women. Circumstances
do not concern them-they want to get
ahead of those around who are more
prosperous than they are, and some.
times TO get ahead regardless of the
fact that they are compelled to 20 be.
yond their means to accomplish this
end.
Persons whose incomes are limited
know, or should know, that they can
not Initiate those to whom money is n
secondary consideration, yet many mis-
guided women, who should count every
penny, live or try TO live as their we'll
TODD neighbors. For time the farce
is kept up, but when the crash comes
the only real sufferer in the foolish
| drama is the merchant or firm who ex
tended a line OF credit to the woman in
the case.
These are the days when it is well to
learn to do without some Of the things
which may seem necessary to social
distinction, and to realize the certain
folly of keeping up a show of appear
ances in the home to crafty a desire
to have things better than our neigh
oors Theirs is little happiness in this
sort of living. 1t is far better to live
IN home, no matter how humble, IL
| chat home is one in which democratic
! instead OF aristocratic ideals prevail,
where there is no concern or desire to
imit,te others, and where there are no
needless debts or burdens to destroy
the happiness of the household.

Next to the aggregate number OF sub
scribers, perhaps the most striking Tea
ture of the third Liberty loan was the
support given it by the farming and
rural populations of the country, ac-
cording to a statement by the Treasury
Department. Not only did the farmers
purchase literally of the bonds, but the
rural communities as rule were more
prompt in completing their quotas OF
the loan than the lsrger cities. More
than 10000 communities in the United
States subscribed or oversubscrlbed
their quotas, many of them on the first
day of the campaign. The majority OF
these were not cities, but country DIS
tricts.
What Russia lost and Germany gain
ed by the Brest- Litovsk treaty is indl-
Gated by the striking figures recently
given out by the commissioner of com
merce OF the Bolsheviki. Russia lost
100000 square miles of land-about
one-sixth of her European territory;
$4,000, 900 Inhabitants about one.
third of her total population in Europe;
1880 miles of railway-about one.
third of her total mileage;
268 sugar reiiueries; 9l8 textile fac
tories; 574 breweries; 1873 tobacco fac.
tories; 1855 distillerIes; 244 chemical
factories; 6l5 paper mills; 1913 ma
chine factories; 1880 savings banks.
The lost territories formerly yielded
an annual revenue OF 1925, 100000.

FLAG ETIQUETTE

When the colors are passing, the
spectator If man, should halt If walk
ing, arise il sitting and uncover, hold.
ing the headress opposite the left
shoulder with the right hand; il bare
headed, he should salute with the
right hand. A woman should stand at
attention as the flag passes by.
When the flag is waving from a
stationary flagstaff or pole it is not
saluted with the hand.
In decorating, the flag should never
be festooned or draped. Always hung
fiat. If hung with stripes horizontal,
Union should be in upper left corner,
II hung prependicularly, Union should
be in upper right corner,
When the flag is carried in parade,
or when crossed with other flags, The
Stars and Stripes should always be at
the right.
The Law specifically forbids the use
of and representation of the flag in any
manner or in any connection with mer-
chandise for sale.
The flag should be raised at sunrise
and lowered at sunset. 1t should NJ
be displayed on stormy days or. except
when under fire OF the enemy, left out
over night. Although there is no
authoritative ruling which compels
civilians to lower the hag at shutdown,
good taste should impel them To follow
the traditions of the Army and Navy in
this shutdown ceremonial, Primarily
the dag is raised TO be seen, and secon-
darby the flag is something to be
guarded, treasured, and so tradition
holds it shall not be menaced by The
darkness. To leave the flag out at
night, unattended, is proof of shiftless.
ness, or at least carelessness.
On Memorial day, the flag should be
displayed at half-mast from sunrise un-
til moor, and at the peak from noon un-
til sunset. 1t should, on being retired,
never be allowed to touch the ground.
When 1.-The Star Spangled Banner"
is played or sung, uncover, stand and
remaining standing, IN SILENCE, un.
til it is finished.
Applause at the conclusion of "The
Star Spangled Banner" is out Of place.
Worn out and useless flags should be
destroyed by burning.
A flag torn or frayed by the wind and
weather should never again be hoisted
until it has been repaired. This is a
regulation of both the Army and Navy
and should also be followed by all civil
lians.

In spite Of the excuses that have
marked the ascendancy- Of the bolshe-
Wiki in Russia, the typical Russian is

STA as a member Of the American rail-
way commission, tells the readers Of
Russia that he found Russians better
behaved In public than Americans
often are.
The trolley cars, he says. we're al
ways jammed with people. mostly By
soldiers who did not pay fare. In
America, In such circumstances, we
find that as soon az q ear stops the

was therefore q surprise to US to OBJ

would Of their own volition form O

no traffic officers on the streets. We.

YOUTH is PRIDE OF ITALY
Only Twelve Years Old. but He Has
Won Great Distinction as q
Brave Soldier. !,

On going to see the army Of the
Grappa a writer for the Marzocco
met the smallest soldier In the Itnl-
ian army-a boy refugee of twelve. In
the telephone service. His uniform
bears distinctive marks for wounds.
Besides he has been decorated. Bis
name Is Patriarca. He was born ct
San Daniele of Friuli. His parents
died when he was very young and he
worked in carpenters shop.
After Caporetto he left his native
country, and from that day the war
began for him. In the retreat he join
ed detachment Of arditi. and with
them performed prodigies Of valor.
On Monte Tomba, in November. when
the German hordes pressed on from
the Quero to overcome the defenses
Of Mount Grappa and Of the Piaye at
one stroke. he went out in a squad
with several arditi. He carried three
hand grenades, larger than bis little
hands, but the arditi had taught him
to throw them like stones at the swal-
lows.
He arrived at the lines and pushed
on to a point well within the enemy
lines till he reached q group Of Ger
mans. comprising Prussian oflcer
and three soldiers with machine guns.
A grenade shot out from his. hand.
and 1t was well aimed. The officer
was crushed to earth. The frishten-
ed soldiers raised their hands. The
boy threatened them, gesticulating
with the other bombs.
He drove the three big soldiers be-
fore him like sheep, dragging their
machine gun. This story, which reads
like a fable. Is only a single page in

RED CROSS SOCIETY CHRISTMAS
ROIL-CALL.

A Christmas Roll-Call Of the
whole American people for the men,
bership in the Red Cross will take
place from December 16 to %, inclu-
sive.
The lists will be open for every
American in every corner Of the
world, so that it may be known that
the whole nation at home and abroad
is registered for the cause.
At the close of the Christmas
Membership campaign of 1917 there
were 22,000,000 Americans enrolled
in the Red Gross. There are also 81
100000 members in the Junions Red
Cross. :
This year both as a Christmas OBJ
servance and a renewal Of the ma
tion-wide pledge of loyalty, the Red
Cross will put before every one the
duty of standing by the flag; for the
Red Cross, in this great fight for
peace represents the whole spirit of
what we are fighting for.
The Red Cross membership fee is
one dollar. Half of this remains with
the local chapter, to be used for ex-
penses and for relief of our soldiers
and their families; the other half
goes to the National Treasury.

DO THE BOYS LIKE TO GET
"HOME PAPERS"

Some time ago Col. William
thompson Boyce, of Westchester
county, New York, conceived the idea
of sending copies of "the home paper
to the boys in the army cantonments
and overseas. Publishers of the pa
pers taking advantage of his idea
soon found that there was nothing
more welcome to the men at the front
than their old home town paper.
THE NEWS would like to see the
patriotic people of this city and
county take up a campaign along
these lines. We receive many letters
from the boys in the service, and from
many who are overseas, telling how
glad they are to get copy of the
paper. If you want to make your son
or your brother happy send THE
NEWS twice-a-week at the subscrip-
ton price of $500 per year. It will
be a welcome visitor to him in his
lonely hours, and will be the means
of bouying him up many time when
his thoughts are turning longingly
toward the old home and the old as
sociates. -.s .t..
Ensign William F. Lally, of the U:
S. Naval Forces, stationed in, Eu-
roope, says: There is nothing that
the man in the service Graves for
more than the news from his old
home town. True, he may get many
letters, but they are nearly always
% reference to personal matters. and
do not give the general trend Of old
town happenings that his paper
would. AS official censor of the ship
which I command, am in a unique
position to know their wants, and
hardly a letter passes through my
hands that does not request a few
copies of the home paper"
Several publishers have raised the
point of paper conservation. The
rules on this subject promulgated by

AUTOS IN ACCIDENT

A party of joyriders. who escaped
from the scene as quickly as possible,
came to grief Saturday night when
their machine collided with a tele-
phone pole in the rear of LAWN Il
Connells grocery store, on Eighth
street. The machine got beyond con-
troll and struck the telephone pole.
The machine was badly damaged, the
force Of the impact breaking the
tenders, buffers and front axles. The
cables supporting the telephone pole
were almost torn loose by the ma
chine. The street was almost desert
ed at the time, and the identity of the
9oyriders could not be established.
The machine was taken in charge by
The police, and sent to a garage for
repairs.
A machine driven by Mr.. Faulco-
ner collided with a wagon on the
Cynthiana pike Saturday, near a h1gn
embankment The machine was
badly damaged, while the wagon was
completely wrecked. Mr.. Faulconer
and the driver Of the wagon both es-
capped serious injury. The mules
drawing the wagon were thrown
down the embankment, but escaped
injury.
