Battle Of the Giants.

According to Brewers Historic
Note Book" neither the battle Of Wa
terloo nor the battle Of Austerlitz was
known as the Battle Of the Giants"
but the battle Of Marignano was so
designated. This battle was fought
on SeptemberE13, 1915, and during
which the allied French and Venetian
armies under Francois l and d'Alviano
defeated the allied Italian and Swiss
armies. The carnage was very great,
as 1900 Of the conquered and 1900
of the yictors were left dead and dy-
Ing on the field. Trivulzio, who had
been present In 1S pitched battles,
called them all cblld's play compared
with this combat of the giants"

II do not want art for few" said
William Morris, "any more than eau-
cation for few, or freedom for n
few"-and civic art is essentially pub
lie art. 1t has been llkened to "a fire
built upon the market place, where
every one may light his torch; while
private art is a fire built upon hearth.
stone which will blaze and die out with
the rise and fall of fortunes.
Beauty In art Is truth bathed in the
impression, the emotion that Is re-
ceived from nature. Seek truth and
exactitude, but with the envelope Of
sentiment which you felt at first. IL
you have been sincere In your emotion
you will be able to pass II on to 9TH

Question for Debate.

Judging by union standards, the
good lady in Proverbs, belauded as
she has been for centuries, set a
most questionable example. Her
price might be above rubies, but
what business had she to rise M
early In the morning, before II was
yet light" and continue all day her
industrial pace-settingi It couldn't
have been good for her husband either,
for all We hear Of his activity is that
he "pralsed her" and that he sat in
the gates'-whIch latter l take to be
the Biblical equivalent Of sitting on
the porch Of a country store with his
feet on the rail, taking all her labor
for granted Exchange.

In every walk, of life there are some
people who rise higher than others be-
cause they are determined to accom-
piish results. Those of our citizens
who have determined TO inaugurate a
building campaign here this coming
summer are men who have risen above
the talk of hard times and are de-
termined to make good times.
The evening leader. (Tarpon Springs, Fla.) 191?-19??, 1919-03-14

Tarpon Springs should have a sum
mer picnic grounds with q suitable pa

BILLY SUNDAY.

In speaking Of Billy Sunday the
Times Union says: Local churchmen
excuse his gymnastics, mostly due to
his carnestness, coupled with a knowl-
edge that he must do his things diff
ferent to be the success that he is.
Without doubt he is the best advertise
ed evangelist in the United States and
draws multitudes to hear him. Thou
sands go through idle curiosity"
The evening leader. (Tarpon Springs, Fla.) 191?-19??, 1919-03-14

If there are any aspiring bail teams
in this part of the country that are
anxious for chance TO try their met
tie let them correspond with the Tar
pom boys. We think we can interest
them for while At least. We have
the boys who know how to play ball
and we are willing. to take on the first
aspirants for honors that make appli-
cation.
The evening leader. (Tarpon Springs, Fla.) 191?-19??, 1919-03-14

When a man loses his goat he is
gone for sure. Some people lose theirs
very easily. 1t gets farther away from
them when there is really no reason
for it at all. 1t is remarkable how
easily some become frustrated when
another says something THAI they
don't like. 1t gets their goat in
stanter.

ads in today's paper. Read them care
fully, find cut what you want and then
go and buy it from the merchant who
have something worth advertising.
