THE STEADY PRESSURE.

Men often strain too hard to be bril-
liant, to be above the average In abil.
ity, genius and what not. More men
are ruined in what they might do by
setting hrillance as their aim, rather
Ihan faithfulness to average ability.
There are only few brilliant folk in
This world and their lot Is not ar envi-
able one. Better, far better be a man
OF average intelligence, with the abil.
ity to do hard work, to have the genius
for staying patiently by the allotted
task. the willingness to keep up the
'teady pressure, says Rockford Repuh-
lie. You will accomplish more that
way. About the only gcnius worth TAX
Ing Into account for the average one Of
us is that capacity for taking pains,
tor maintaining the steady pressure,
that Is necessary to anyone who hopes
20 do well his duty from day to day.
Forget that you wish to be brilliant.
Do the daily round of duty, with some
measure Of inspiration; do 1t thorough
", patiently; finish It, That Is the
way Of success and It's achievement.
The worlds work is done by the aver
nge folk, not by brilliant ones.

Defining word Is the first step in
knowledge. Some people use words all
their lives without defining them
Such threatens to be the case with
"bolshevism." One way Of showing
what word is is to show what 1t is
not, "Bolshevism" Is Russian word :;
but bolshevism Is not Russian thing
IT is not a disease communicable by
germs, as some imagine. 1t Is not
new. Bolshevism lies at the bottom Of
every human heart. Surround it with
the proper cultural conditions, and 1t
Will grow. 1t may take the form Of
proletarian government, as in Russia
or it may take some other ugly FORM
But ugly as 1t is, 1t is not as ugly as
the conditions which nourish It, These
conditions can be controlled. That Ia

Two items in the news,.nrc seen to
have a close connection, when placed
side by side. One points to recru
descence Of interest in the raising Of
fruit in America. The other reports
that in Belgium alone 10000 acres OF
fruit orchards have been ruined, and
that in France 100000 fruit trees were
mans. 1t is evident that American or
chardists will bo called upon to All

ket, and that they are getting ready to
grasp the opportunity.

overheated Horses

Perhaps never during harvest
has there been so many horses
and mules oyerheated while pull
ing binders as ia this county
during the present grain cutting
Vetenaries have been on the
Jump and local treatment resort
ed to by owners and yet many
valuable animals have been lost.
The very warm weather Of
course is primarily responsible
for the unusual effect on the an
imaIs but tangled grain has also
contributed, scarcely a field but
which was more or less tangled
by wind or rain or both.
DR.. Northcutt had three hurry
calls one evening the latter part
of last week, the first to viii
Henry Kalinka where the horse,
a fine animal was dead when he
reached the place. Another to
Oscar Grotjan where he found a
horse in a bad condition from be-
ing oyerheated but while On the
way to the tirotjan horse he was
was stopped to attend to one
down 10 the field of Mr.. Myer,
just south of the Oscar Grotjan
farm. This animal was in very
serious condition. First aid was
given and the Grotjan horse
doctored up to a safe to leave
point and the Myer horse given
further attention. All these
were valuable animals.
Strange as it may seem not a
single horse or mule has been
prostrated by heat and lived or
died, where tractors have been
used in place Of horses. A bold
statement which many will doubt

Ball Fans See Some Big League
Pitchers In Action

When the KeytesviIle Signals

avowed vengeance and declared
they would return later and

Sanders, who is a spit ball ar
tist had our boys on the hip, only
one Glasgow player reaching
second base. This happened in
the last half Of the ninth, and
up to that time not a home play
er reached first base.
Davenport is rated as one of
the best baseball pitchers in the
country, but his alibI was that
the catcher couldn't hold his
speedy ones. He pitched four
innings when he was taken cut,
and the catcher who was sub.
stituted, put in the box. This

and continued at intervals DUR
