MAKING A GOOD STORY

Theoretically we should all like to be known as clever story tellers. As mat ter of fact, when ae hear it said of person. On he ] os.s how to make good story, we ere rather glad that We do not stand in lis shoes That par ticular remark is usually mild manner of conveying the idea that maa is 'in- trustworthy It is often unfair and un- fortunate that such odium slsuld rest upon what is, or ought to be, delight ful talent.
 The art of making good story out of something seen or heard depends on the imagination. Imaginative people ought really to allow one another con-. siderable latitude in dealing with facts. They do not always accord or receive that indulgence. and they seldom can nope for clemeney from the mimagina- tive the highly colored adventure has drawn laugh from the unimagina- tive Il the highly eolored adventure been highly colored will cause him to feel that his laugh has been won from him under false pretenses. The very quality that made the narrator so agree able is the one that, if too clearly re vealed, will diminish him in the imagi- native eye, If he had told a plain, un- vanished tale, he might have been boring, but there would have been no. reason to doubt his trustworthiness as it is, an unimaginative head wages sol emnly over him. Accuracy and trust worthiness are for the unimaginative. synonymous terms.
 There are various ways of making 2 good story. Of several ways, one is tos present yourself as the hero of an ad venture that has happened to some ono else, and thus to achieve vividness of narrative and sympathy in the point of view that you could not attain through less personal statement That is all very we'll until your auditor eol- fronts you with the name of the real ae tOl III llit uidiid Ol NilH Itnidih that something very like that story ap peared i'll magazine You may have appropriated the centre of the stage te claim the ignominy rather than the glo- ry of an adventure, but exposure is sure to discredit you and make you feel that you are regarded as piagiarist.
 The temptation to make good story out of friends experience at the. friends expense is to the artistic imag- ination often we'll nigh irresistible, but in common wsdom and loyalty it ought always to be withstood, for otherwise. the narrator may have the chagrin of finding himself coldly regarded in quar- ters where he had been accustomed to warmth. His pleasant story seems an act of periidy; even the person whom he has re@aled feels that 1t was a queer thing to tell about a friend; and thus the man who might safely be trusted with aayoae's purse ceases to be trust ed with anyone's confidence. All tai ents are dangerous unless rightly useds the talent for making good story is as. dangerous as any.-Youth's Companion

PRESBYTERIAN BOYS BEAT
SOUTHERN METHODISTS

A large crowd of fans turned out
Monday afternoon, at Doss Field, to
watch the ball game between the boys
of the Presbyterian and Southern
Methodist churches. Both teams
worked hard for victory, and the re-
suit was always in doubt until the last
Methodist was struck out in the ninth
inning. Up to the beginning of the
sixth, the score was %, with both
pithcers, Graves for the Methodists
and Marty for the Presbyterians, GO
ing good. In the sixth, a walk, an in
field error and "big league" double
to left by Sloan, counted two runs for
the Presbyterians. The Methodists
came right back in their half of the
sixth and a walk, a hit by Williams
and a double by Counts, brought In
two runs. The next inning saw the
Methodists take the lead by scoring
three runs on q walk, two hunts, a
passed ball and a couple Of singles.
The Presbyterians were only able to
get one run this inning, but in the
eighth they came back strong ard with
walk, hit batsman, couple of err
rors, single by Marty and triple by
Faust, counted six runs. The Meth
odists had no idea of giving up and in
their last half of the ninth made a
strong bid to even the score, but af-
ter counting one run, on a pass, an
error and hit, and with two on bases,
and one out, Marty was sent hack to
the mound and by some clever twirling
shut off all further scoring 70 one run,

OBITUARY

Willie Elliot Turley was born in St.
Genevieve county, Mo-, Sept. ID, 1891
and spent his life there up to 1914
when he went to st. Louis AMI worked
there for about three years, when his
health began to fail and he went to
Denver, Colo, and spent the last two
years of his life. He continued to
work until some time in July, last,
when he was stricken down with tu-
berculosis and meningitis, which
claimed him as its victim on Aug.
20, 1919. Bro. Elliot was converted
and united with the M. E. Church,
South at Salem when about IS years
old, and from that time until the Lord
called him he never swerved from his
Christian duty. When we have to give
up noble young man like Elliot, we
are shocked, and viewing it from a
human standpoint, we cannot under
stand it. His father informed the
writer that Elliot, never in his life,
gave him a cross word. No wonder
the Apostle said: "Behold, l show
you a mystery" Now we see through
a mirror darkly, but the time is COM
ing when we shall see face to face. To
know this young man was to love him.
Taking his stand so early in life for
Jesus Christ, and living it, should be
an incentive to every young man to
do likewise and profit by his splendid
example. When he passed from earth
to the Great Beyond, he was n years,
IL months and 5 days old. He leaves
to mourn his untimely death, father,
Mace Turley, two brothers, Bert and
Jesse, and Mrs. Glen Waning, of
lockwood, besides many other rela-
tives and host of friends. His re-
mains were brought home to his IA
thor, and on Sept. 3rd his funeral
was conducted by the writer at Three
Rivers church, assisted by Rev. o. II.
l.. Cunningham, after which all that
was mortal was laid to rest in the
Woodman cemetery near by to await
that great day. A very large con-
course of people followed him to his
last resting place. May He who
"tempers the wind to the shorn
lamb, comfort the bereaved ones.
Servant of God, well done!
Thy glorious warfare's past,
The battles fought, the victory's won
and thou art crowned at last"

LID CLAMPED ON BY BARS
AFTER PUBLIC WARNING

Thirty-two special Investigators of
the Department Of Justice arrived in
st. Louis yesterday to make "clean-
up" of saloon keepers who have been
, selling whisky in violation of the war
time prohibition act, Police Head
quarters announced today.
The fact that the Federal agents had
reached the city came as a surprise to
both the liquor men and also the
United States District Attorney Wal
ter l.. Hensley and his aids. Shortly af-
ter the arrival of the government men,
saloon keepers were clipped off" and
at p. m. yesterday afternoon the lid
was put on the sale of liquor in down
town st. Louis, as announced eXclu-
sively in The Times.
Five arrests were reported to have
been made yesterday afternoon, but
the District Attorneys office, the Blu
reau of Investigation, Department Of
Justice and the United States Mar
shal's office all denied they had
heard of any raids on the saloons
here.
Following drastic instructions. issued
by Attorney General Palmer that the
wartime prohibition act must be en-
forced, extensive raids have been car
ried out in New York and Chicago in
the last few days, and it is believed
the Federal Investigators were sent
here to make arrests in the nation
wide cleanup.
A majority of the St. Louis saloon
keepers have been selling whisky
since July 1, charging % cents a
drink and from S. to $40 quart.
Last week Hensley said his office
did not have time to inquire into the
sale of liquor here, because all Of his
time was taken up with the investiga-
ton into the high cost of living.-St.
Louis Times.

members re-enlist in this campaign.

where, how and when to buy. They

can assure larger part of our nation

They can help to bring about increas-

lowering of the general standard of
living of America. In sd doing, they
will perform patriotic service to
themselves, their industries, their COM
munities, and the nation"

SOUNDS LIKE "CAMoUFLAGE"

The editors flock of Rhode Island
Reds is one pullet shy since the I'M
righteous visit of the most despised
of all human wretches, the chicken
thief, last Saturday. Now we want to
serve notice that the garage, next
door to the chicken roost is being con-
verted into sleeping porch and that
in this sleeping porch a long-range
quick-action A will be used as a pill
low. By this arrangement we expect
to be instrumental in assisting a
strange chicken thief to appear in hell
for breakfast some morning unan-
nounced.--Dexter Messenger.
We are inclined to the belief that the
disappearance of that "Rhode Island
Red" annihilated at least half, if not
all of the STOCK" in possession of the
editor of the Messenger. The idea of
an editor owning a "fock of Rhode Is
land Reds" these days appears to US
as entirely homogeneous.

MAN AND MONKEY

life that is, the scheme of things that

blinks at the light of dawn, the jun

gets out of the beaten track and
strikes right out through the eeria
black, his goal the skies and his sold
atlame with laurels to be wen. He
dares new seas and his only sail is
grit, but the monk swings on his tail,
and apes shadow of the past--and
does as his Paw has done. Now the
desert sands are all abloom, the lam
guild night breathes sweet perfume,
the red rose turns her crimson heart
from the kisses Of the sun; and it's all
because men dared and died, and felt
the thrill of worthy pride-but
monk still swings in the Congo tree
and does as his Paw has done. And
in every town you'll find the monk, his
soul is warped and his brain is junk.
When the wheels of progress start to
grind, he throws a wrench in it. He
sits all day like a dog-gone lump, and
he sswaps stale jokes by the old town

A Pat on the Back

pat the back is wonderful thing
1t gives man courage to whistle and sing;
When hope is departing, the outlook is grim,
A pat on the back then says volumes to him.
1t whispers: Keep at it! You're doing all right;
Just dig in your toes and get busy and fight
There's man behind you-go to it, old man;
One pal who is sure that you can, that you can"
A pat the back from a stranger or friend
When jaw starts sag and your knees bend
Will bring you right up with courage and grit
And you'll keep in the fight when you going to quit
You'll feel it, you'll hear it-yes actually hear it
For hours saying, "Dg in, old fellow Don't fear it;
That isn't as hard as it looks. Be man.
There's fellow back there who believes that you cam
Just pat the back. And for days and for days
No matter how far you may roam, it still stays
By your side, and matter how hard be your fight
It's whispering always you'll out all right
There's fellow back there who's believing in you,
Expecting each minute to see you come through
With your coors still flying and leading your clan!"
And the first thing you know you saying, 81 can"
Oh, pat on the back is a wonderful thing.
The touch Of its magic; I've known it to bring
Back feeting hopes, and strength that seemed gone
And smiles that have vanished and urge a man on
When seemed that he couldn't step advance
Till he conquered And that's what I'm singing this for
If you poor brother whose nerves out of whack
Just step up and give him pat the back.
