Need More Effort

The need for funds is made more
urgent at this time because it is yet
necessary to erect the new receiving
station before the little ones that
have been saved by the Children's
Home Society of Virginia can be
housed for the winter, and there re-
mains little time for the construc-
tion before the approach of cold
weather. The people of Virginia are
responding only slowly to it's appeal,
and unless more contributions and
more generous ones are received the
money will not be raised.
Superintendent Maybee and Direc-
tor Driscoll were called out of Rich
mond, where they were busy at work
on the campaign, to collect more
than a dozen little unfortunates in
scattered section of the State. These
little unfortunates needed immediate
attention and it was necessary that
the workers go to their assistance.
Since the drive started the demands
made upon the society have increas-
ed in great number. for people who
had never heard of it are now seek
ing to place children with, and the
money to care for them simply must
be raised without delay.

Obituary

DR.. John Gwin Hamilton was born
in Big Valley, Highland county, Va.,
June %, 1897, died June "a, 1913,
aged 50 years and one day. He was
veteran of the Civil War, but the
writer does not know how long he
served in the war or what company
he belonged to-but another confed-
crate soldier has answered the final
call.
In the year of 1866 he was united
in marriage to Caroline Townsend;
to this union were born four children
three living as follows: Mustoe, Sallie
Betty Woods, Dave having died some
years ago.
DR.. Hamilton as he was Familiarity
known, was the last one of the Ham
ilton family to die, bling the only sur
viying member. For many years he
treated and cured many cases Of can
Ger, hence he was given the title OF
doctor. He was generally known all
over the county but for nearly nine
years he was bed-fast, but during all
these long years of toll and suffering
he was never heard to complain.
DR. Hamilton never connected him
self with any church, but he was an
ardent admirer of the Second Advent
Christian church, and though his
great benevolence was built the
Hamilton Chapel Church, where his
funeral was held on June rs, con-
Quoted by Elder Jas. w. Gardner

The funeral procession was led by
two of his old Confederate comrades
Wesley Kincaid and OFT Wiley, the
casket was borne by six of the SOL
diers of the Great World War as fol.

and Robert Gutshall.

Meteor Landed In Reservoir.

A search for missing meteor, con-
Quoted by the United States geological
survey, has ended in the reservoir OF
the Towanda .(Pa.) water company.
Incidentally 1t has enabled the COM
pany to account for the sudden disap-
pearance of its ice crop on the night
of January %. On the afternoon OF
the day preceding the meteor's flight
local officials visited the reservoir and
decided to cut the eight-inch crop Of
ice the next morning. During the night
the meteor landed In the reservoir.
When workmep went to harvest the Ice
it had dwindled to scant three inches,
due, it Is asserted, to the heat Of the
meteor warming the water in the res
ervoir. The reservoir will be drained
in an effort to find the meteor.

down town expecting to pay so for

day. and got the very pair OF shoes I
wanted for SITS. had saved $2.2b.
But how to keep 1t saved knew that
II simply regarded it mentally as
saving, before the end Of the month 1t
would be spent miscellaneously. !
went right down stairs In the store
and bought nine Thrift Stamps and
stuck these quarters in the Thrift card
where they could not get away before
the end of the month.

Fired by HertxIan Waves.

While the plan Of using electric
waves at will to blow up a powder
magazine or cause other destruction
is an idle dream, G. A. Leroy has sat,
isfied himself that fres have been set
by Hertzian waves, and he has
brought to the notice Of the French
academy an instrument for testing the
effects Of these invisible radiations.
A bale of compressed cotton Is an ex-
ample Of a material coming within
common experience that may be fired
accidentally. The steel band hold
ing such a bale may be broken with
the ends left separate but near
enough together for an electric spark
to pass between them, or short spark
might pass from band on one bale to
that on another bale piled close. The
cotton might be ignited BY sucn
sparks.

FOCAL PAPERS

The local weekly or daily papers
deserve better support than they re-
ceive in many communities. Some
have not succeeded because Of the
policy or lack of policy of their man
agement, but our experience con-
vinces us that the great majority OF
the papers devoted to the interests OF
the home community deserve heraty
support. The metropolitan daily
will bring to ones doorstep the news
of the world seen thru the spetacles
of the city editor, but it is the editor
who lives in the heart Of the ccmmu-
nifty who is able to reflect the sentl-
ment of the local group. He alone
is the true interpreter of events as
they affect the small home town and
the country Immediately surrounding
if He alone is able to put real spar
kle into the account Of the wedding
of boys and girls whom he has seen
grow UP. He alone is able to put the
throb of real feeling into the obituar
les of the men and women among
whom he has spent his life and with
whom he has worked for the improve
ment and advancement Of the old
home town. These local papers de-
serve better than they generally get
During the war they have had hare
sledding-many of them-and now
they have a perfect right to come te
the citizens of their locality asking
real business support. Give it te
them. If the local paper has the
proper kind of encouragement it car
do more for the welfare of the toWr
and the countryside than any Other
factor. Support means more thar
merely subscribing. Send in TIT
acws. Patronize the advertising co
INNS. Pretty soon you will INT
yourself becoming more interested IL
the community than you ever were
before and you will find that 1t is
good place to stay rather than SOM
thing to try to get away from. Hell
the local paper and it will help you

Man Tested by Trials.

A mans dependability can be meas
ured by the way he takes accidentals'
The great mass of men can go along
serenely when everything goes ac-
cording to custom. But the appearance
of the accidental throws them out OF
balance. The same thing Is true OF
life. So many fellows lose their
heads when they need them most.
Trouble in any quarter seems to flash
ths red flag before them. The I'M
usual unnerves them. Turmoil in the
camp becomes contagious and they bolt
when they should be the most steady.
II takes trials to test the man. Any
one who goes wild with the appear
ance Of the accidental can never be
trusted to meet nfe's real problems.
