What Women
Want.

Men saw marry me and be my
love, but the real meaning is some
thing like this: marry me and bear
me a child each year. Cook my
food and that of my farm hands,
Wash the dishes, carry the water.
keep the house clean, make the
fires bake the bread, make the
lam pickles, and jellies. Do the
sewing, washing, mending OF our
clothing. And don't forget to sew
nv buttons on, keep the scraps for
the pigs. Run the dairy and feed
the chickens. Keep the egg money
if YOU like-but be sure to buy gro
ceries with it. Teach the children
their letters. See that they go
clean to school and church. Nurse
me when l am i'll, and be sure to
GREAT me with smile when l come
home, regardless of your feeling.
Obey me in all things and will

As usual Rugby has led the van
by organizing an athletic club Tor
the school, with Ellis Hammond
president; Ely Hammond secretary
and bessie Applegate vice presi'
dent in charge of the girls.
s Practically every village school
in Scott County has one and they
send representatives every year to
the fair at Huntsville to compete
for prizes; but this branch of the
work has been sadly neglected
in Morgan. However, Rugby has
made start with a beautiful park
on Main street furnished them by
John Toomy. They had box sup
per Saturday night which netted
them sufficient to buy necessary
equipments to begin on.
They were, assisted by Miss Sloan
and Mr. Kyker who furnished the
entertainment before the boxes
were sold.
Our boys are farm boys and this
is a busy season, therefore their
progress will be slow for awhile
but they hope to get the hurdles UP
this week for the running high
jumps. If possible they want to put
up the vaulting bars next week II
they get the park cleaned in time.
Suitable games will also be pro.
vided for the girls.
We hope to see the day when our
boys may meet the other County
boys at Wartburg as they do in
nelghboring Counties.

MOORE FOR GOVERNOR

The papers Of Sunday morning
carried the information that Lieute-
nant-G Governor E. R. Moore would,
undoubtedly before the close Of the
present session of the legislature,
announce his intention to become a
candidate for governor on the Re-
publican ticket next year. This an
nouncement will not come in the
nature of surprise to the many
friends of Mr.. Moore or those who
are conversant with the political
situation. Of the state. Mr.. Moore,
it can be said at the outset, should
he be elected governor, would con-
duct state affairs as he has conduc-
ted his own business and that is on
strictly business principles, which
accounts in a large measure for his
success. He also took the chairman
ship of the Water Works Board, an
institution that had not shown any
signs of being able to pay it's way
in the world, and put it on a pay
ing basis and he did this without
noise or blare Of trumpets. There
will be other candidates, undoubt-
edly, but from survey Of the field
at the present line up and from q
purely efficiency standard, Mr.
Moore looks to be far and away
1 the strongest of the lot.
Mr.. Floyd Young is very serious
! ly i'll at his home in the country
J Friends hope he may recover soon
