Editor Nirginian:
Silt seems that in the bounds OF
the FIRST congressional district rheya
are quite Il number who desire 10 sn,-
coed The Hon. w A. Jones. deceased .
AS the representative In congress os
that district. We are quite sure that
the ambition to be the standard bear
err of Democracy in congress from tn \
fine section IN our great old common
wealth is most laudahle one Ii will
be no small honor to the successful
competitor in this interesting and
widely observed fight to be the SUE
cessor OF SO brainey man aswas Mr.
Jones and represent in congress 50
splendid a constituency as he did for
many years.
The writer has held quite number
of pastorates in counties included in
the bounds of the First district and, Of
course. we feel interested in whatever
concerns the welfare OF folks among
whom we spent many years. We re-
member when Mr. Jones was a briis>
liant rising lawyer at the Northern
Neck bar before he became an aspir-s
ant for political honors. He was at
that time in the prime of life and was
the peer of any lawyer practicing at
the bar OF the Northern Neck, which
at tflS Iiuic We REFER 10 was represents
ed by such men as Judge Ashton
Colonel Washington, w. w. Walker
and others who were fully dedged
lawyers.
1t Is true we are not a resident now
of this section. and it is in no med
dlesome spirit that we venture to sug-'
gest that the Christian people. thu
temperance people and all people liv..
ing within the bounds OF that district,
who honor and respect clean. pure.
virile and broad minded men rally Ia.
the support of Hon. G. Walter Mapp,
of Accomac. who is widely known a.
a great leader-in clean politics in the
state. and who has already done splen-
did service for the uplift OF the people
of Virginia. He Is worthy of this hon.
or and will be found to be worthy OF
their confidence and support. Hiss
record is before our Virginia people.
The Hon Mr. Mapp who Is total
stranger to this writer. knows notlf.s
ing about this letter. and We wish To-
say that no one else knows anything.
about it. We are not in politics and,
ask no personal favors, but write IN"
this strain because we believe it is our
duty TO do SO,

Pencils in Japan.

An unthOught-Of result of the war
has been the creation of a lead-pencil
industry in Japan. In 1911 Japan i'm
ported 65,0OO,OO0 pencils, most Of
which came from America and Ger
many. But with the opening of the
European conflict German sources Of
supply were cut off and native manu-
facturers, who had been producing
only in comparatively small quantities,
seized their opportunity and made the
most of it. In 1914 Japan exported
over nine million pencils and in 1916
the number had increased to 16S0O0.-
600. There is strong Indication, OBJ
serves a writer, that many of the mar
ketS won by the Orientals will be held
by them after the war, for they have
the advantage of very cheap labor

AN OFFICIAL STORY TELLER
Libraries in Canada Find Special Fea-
ture for the Entertainment of
Children Is Worth While.

In several of the public libraries of
Canada story telling to children has
for some years been a special feature,
says an exchange. Each Saturday morn
ing from fifty to one hundred children
assemble at the library in a room set
apart for the purpose and called the
"Children's Room" The ages of the
children vary from six to fourteen
years.
At st. John, New Brunswick, story
telling has been continued now for
three years. This year it has been
found advisable to divide the children
according to age and to hold two
classes of half an hour each. The
work has steadily grown in interest,
and the demand for books of a less
trivial type justifies the work of the
committee in charge. During the sum
mer, when opportunity offers and a
stOry-teller of note is a guest of the
city, notice is given to the library, and
it is often possible to have a special
session.

Don't FIatter Yourself.

Somehow l was always different

ing among men, even among those who
lay no claim to any special virtue, OBJ
serves Los Angeles Times. Indeed,
the statement is often made by those
who pretend to be ashamed of their
vices, but who are really almost proud
of them. To feel like that and to ad-
init it is only a confession of the ego
tism common to humanity. Whoever
you are, you are only different from
others in personality. You belong to
