REAL YANKEE LANGUAGE
Hondon Opinion).

A French soldier who came proudly
up to an American in a certain head
quarters town the other day asked:
"You spik French?"
"Nope," answered the American
mot yet"
The Frenchman smiled complacent-
ly.
~Aye spik Eengleesh," he said. The
American grinned and the Frenchman
locked about for some means to show
his prowess in the foreign tongue. AT
that moment a French girl, very neat
and trim in her peaked hat, long coat,
and high laced boots, came along. The
Frenchman jerked his head toward
her, and said triumphantiy: "Chick-
en-n

A Splendid Suggestion

When there was some newspaper
discussion of 4 public memorial to the
bows who offered their lives for their
country, the Daily Register received
4 good suggestion from a local lady
which was misplaced at the time 1t
is not too late, however, to print this
splendid idea. Richmond should, by
all means have a public library, and
if she cannot obtain one from Car
negie, this plan as suggested below
would be a good one. The lady
writes:
A Public Library.
Another suggestion as memorial
for the boys of Madison county is a
public library. We know that Car
negie has offered $4,000 to any town
for a public library. AS the calls on
the wealthy have been great, for
money to help win this war, and the
high cost of living has been hard on
people of limited means, it would be
wise TO take advantage of Carnegie's
offer. Have reading and writing ma
terials on first floor, and music on the
second floor; Victrolas and other mu-
steal instruments and organize band
Richmond should have a band. When
peace was declared, all Richmond
could DO was to ring dinner bells
think of it, And music would draw
many men and boys in, who would not
come otherwise, for Emusic hath
charms to soothe the savage beast. y
The wealthy men of this town ought
to be willing to buy the musical in
struments and have a first class band
for there are often occasions when g
band is needed, and unless one can DC
obtained from another town, there is
no music. 1 think the lot where the
old McCreary building is, adjoining
the postofice, would be splendid To-
cation for a public library.

Navy Official Says Permanent Elk
hibit Should be Established
in Washington

An effort to preserve three his
toric men-of-war for the nation in
the tidal basin at Washington, was
begun yesterday by Acting Secre-
tary of the Navy Roosevelt.
The famous Constellation, of rev.
dictionary war fame, and the Hart
ford, Admiral Farragut's flagship Of
the civil war, and possibly the Con-
stitution, if Acting Secretary Roose-
velt's efforts are successful, will be
brought to Washington.
Acting Secretary Rosevelt's plan
is to have concrete foundations built
in the tidal basin, so that while the
ships would seem to be afoat, they
would be practically indestructible.
