Don't neglect home gardens during

Is is not yet too late even to start a

1t is perhaps even more important
TO have a good full garden in the South

been filled daily with visitors, many
OF them having come long distances
10 see the new trucks, shown for the
first time in Virginia. The equipment
of the truck is up to date. including
electric lights and starter. double

THE DAUNTLESS ITALIAN.
He fights

! plains Of northern Italy. He fights
for hons and native land. He fights
10 destroy the power of the greedy
tribes Of the north. that have despoiled
the sovereignty of his king for more
than a hundred years.
The Italian not only fights for his
native land and the home of his child
hood. buy he fights for yet more glo-
rious cause. About him ne sees a
picture he never saw hefore-a pic
ture that inspires a sentiment which
the world till lately has been unable
to embrace. and this picture has rem
dered the struggle superbiy dazzling
TO his vision. It Is the picture of a
great nation hurting Its best blood and
treasure in the craters OF death to
.succor the family of man. Across the
river through the binding smoke, he
catches the frequent glimpse of the
stars and stripes. and above the thun-
GERS of the battle storm he hears the
war-cry of freedom from the lips of
men who are defending a suffering
world.
And as he gazes with rapture at this
unaccustomed scene he thinks of
home and friends. and there comes to
his heart the fulness of a brighter
day, as he exclaims: "It ia not all of
life TO live. nor all of death to die"

Editor Nirginian.
Sir: Amidst varying contending
Democratic factions. and conflicting
emotionsr the~man in the street, by
way and hedge. must look the four
candidates for Congress straight in
the face in a practical sort of way, and
decide--not be blindly led by men
with sinister ends in view. This is
practical day.
1t is entirely ungenerous and con-
temptible to make insiduous COM
PARSONS as to the personal worth,
l-or patriotic instincts among Messrs.
Mapp. Goolrick, Bland and Hall.
They are all of undoubted ability,
integrity, PERSONAL worth and pa
triotism; that goes without saying
However. the fact cannot be
obscured, that Walter Mapp. one OF
the candidates. has done things"
and stands for things" that are gem
orally accepted as being morally and
economically sound. He is not a di
sheveled, long haired moral uplifter;
the position he has always taken in
public life is but reflex, largely re-
sulting from antecedent and environ
ments, happily incorporated and
developed by him naturally, in his
whole life. He is an outgrowth of
sturdy, vigorous, helpful. practical, in
lelligent yeomanry. His public and
professional life has been open, above
| board and progressive, his private
without reproach. He is closely
identified too. with practical every
day things, industrious, frugal--na-
turally thrifty. Prudent folks usually
estimate the future by the past. Safe
procedure in all activities
No doubt some good men differ
about prohibition in alcoholic bever-
ages Perhaps. prohibition. in the
abstract, in some cases. does invade
personal right, however. candor com
pels frank admission that il is not
probably valuable right, when care
fully reviewed Prohibition does seem.
! though. to conserve that sound politi-
cal precept. that laws for society
should be enacted with an eye to the
greatest good to greatest numbers
Ihis aside, is largely a matter of
opinion, which time and collective
good sense will finally adjust right.
Viewed from any angle, there is no
valid reason why Walter Mapp should
not be sent TO congress. with all due
Difference 10 claims of other candi-
dates. He is not stranger to legis-
iatlon rontine-even leadership in
progressive legislation. NO man who
knows Mapp will rise up to dispute
his ability. entire dependability and
potentially as a rising public man.
AS matter of local interest every
shade of democratic afflliation on the
Eastern Shore of Virginia ought to
support him; the Western Shore Of
Virginia because of his splendid avil-
ability Less than this does not seem
to be democratic duty at this hour No
time for fulsome flattery or political
speculation.

acting in conjunction with the minis
