LUKE M,LUKE SAYS

If woman knows that you have
sense enough to admire her, the bet
ting is that she'll have sense enough to
admire you.
Enthusiasm is a strange thing. 1t
takes money from one man and 1t
makes money for another man.
About the second day girl is mar
ried she sits down and has a good
time thinking of the beautiful gifts
she will receive on her golden wedding
anniversary.
Love is something that makes a man
cheerfully swap his goat for a girls
heart.
The reason why a young married
woman acts so perky to her husban
is because she believes that if sh q
calls up the judge he will send her
divorce and alimony by the next
mail
Any married man can tell you that
when a wife is wrong she is the last
one to find it out.
vorces if men didn't Judge women as
they Judge cigars-by their wrappers
The only time when two mer ever
talk as much as two women il when
two men meet and begin telling how
much their wives talk.
A girl may admit that she is thin.
But she is apt to want to add that it
is wonderful how much her thinness is
ecoming to her.
A married man is apt to be grouchy
when the home team loses That is
the reason why there are so many
cheerful married men in Cincinnati this
year.
When we remember that an old
fashioned boys reward for being good
came in the shape of permission to
visit grandpa's grave on Sunday, wa
wonder why all of our fathers didn't
wind up in the pen.
Every time a Pullman car is crowded
every passenger in the car wonders
why every other passenger couldn't
have postponed this trip until some
other day.

seIfishness of Women

II was on a crowded street car yes

other men 1 stood on the platform. as
all the seats were occupied by two
passengers with the exception of two
seats occupied by women-and bundles.
Each of these women sat on the out
side end of the seat and had their
bundles on the other half At one of
the stations two ladies boarded the
cars and looked for a seat Neither of
the women with the bundles made any
effort to share the seat with the new
passengers and two men, who / hap

work, got up and gave the ladies theie
seats.
Now. I hope the time will never
come when a man, unless he is infirm
or crippled, will remain seated while
woman stands. but l submit that it
is manifestly unfair for a woman to
compel man to stand when seats
they have not paid for are occupied by
bundles. or course, one could have
appealed to the conductor, but one
hesitates to resort to, that measure.

courtesy and shows very selfish

JEWS AND THE WORLD WAR

NIX n ASH1NGTON. D. c., Auguts 2s.
WW Especial. l--'If the war does
help the Jew, it will indeed
be a blessing in dreadful Disguise
says William Howard Taft, in a COM
munication to the National Geographic
Society
The former President reviews the
part the Jews player in the war and
predicts some effects the war will have
on their world struggle for liberty as
follows:
"One-half the Jews of the world have
had to bear it's miseries, its cruelties,
| its sufferings. They lived in the
| theater of war between Russia and
Germany and Austria. In this region,
almost without ceasing, the campaign
continued. The Russians laid waste
the country in order to embarrass their
| pursuing enemies, and between the two
armies the population, of which the
Jews were large part, suffered I'M
told horrors. reg
"As soon as the war came on, as soon
many and Austria, on the one hand, and
Russia, on the other, We'd with each
other in cultivation of the good will
of the Poles and Jews.
! Russia promised that an autonomous
| Poland would be created from all three
of the incomplete tribal districts of
the partial kingdom. Some of the
leaders of the Austrian government an
nounced an intention of giving autono-
my to Galicia.
When the war came to an end
| tremendous governmental changes oc-
| CURED in the countries where the Jews
are SO greatly congested.
1.-The dreadful destruction of life, the
necessity for rehabilitation of these
countries where the war ragged with
such violence and destruction, must
necessarily give greater economic value
to every man who survives. The loyalty
which the Jews have shown to their
respective governments in these coun-
tries under a most trying ordeal ought
i to impress their goernments with the
claim that they make to equal treat
1
ment.
while it is true that in the past
much of the cruelty to the Jews has
been Immediately prompted by popular
prejudice, nevertheless it is also true
| that with the increase Of popular con-
troll in all countries, their condition has
ultimately been much improved. A
war like this, which must be carried
on by the people, increases their ulti-
mate power
"If education and opportunity and
| freedom and equality are extended to
| them in the next generation, the traits
to which objection is made will be-
come less and less CONSPICUOUS, and

sure that our land will be land OF
peace"
In New York, Boston and other
eastern cities, in the national capital
itself and in Chicago, there are me-
groes who preach openly the doctrine
limited at by Trotter and Whaley.
Doubtless these worthless themselves
are not averse to arousing large audi
ences of negroes to frenzy by pictur-
ing them as an oppressed people. The
idea that is working on all such agi-
tators, who, by their Incorporate
speeches are trying to create a race
war in America, is not race equality,
but social equality.
Incidentally, Booker 7. Washington
was stencil in the nostrils of the
fiery advocates of a new order of
things. His common sense teachings
based on profound knowledge of the
two races and the barriers placed be-
tween them by the Creator, were an
abomination to the negro "high-
brows" of New York and Boston, who,
by virtue of a certain native shrewd-
ness and college education, have set
themselves up as leaders of their peo-
pie. Under such leadership the Amer
lean negro will inevitably come to
grief.

Livestock Exhibit

THE Alabama state fair, which
opens October 6, gives promise to be
the best on record in every particular,
but especially so far as the exhibit of
livestock. agricultural and horticul-
tural products are concerned" SAID
r. L. Aycock
Fair officials state that the live
stock exhibition this year will far ex-
coed that of previous years, particu-
larly as to Alabama raised stock, as
the cattle industry in this state has
made great strides in the past few
years, and some exceptionally fine
stock is the result
'The livestock display last year was
decidedly the best, both as to quality
and quantity, that had ever been on
exhibit here, but unfortunately the
fair was cut short by the influenza
epidemic and it's effect lost. The ex-
hibit will be duplicated this year and
some fine stock will be seen"

The Encyclopedia Britannica defines
strike as "a stoppage of work by

definition actually described a strike,
