MOUNTAIN MISSION SCHOOLS
HAVE AN IMPORTANT TASK

One of the interests that will be
fostered by the Baptist IS Million
Campaign which is not so generally
known to the masses of the people is
that of the mountain mission schools,
of which there are thirty-nine, thirty
six of these being located in the
Southern Appalachians and the other
three in the Arkansas and Missouri
Ozarks. There are 200 teachers in
these schools and 5000 students and
money invested in these schools has
probably yielded larger returns in
strong UNCONVENTIONAL leaders of both
men and women than any other work
done in the homeland Ii is the be-
lief of the Baptist rs Million Cam
paign manager that these people of
the mountains are more truly Ameri-
can in spirit and in blood than any
others in the United States and are
animated by exceptionally unselfish
ideals

LARTFORD OHIO COUNTY, KY, FRIDAY OCTOBER TO- l919

soon as the necessary equipment for
the work Is secured.
Last Wednesday, October the first,
the Parent-Teacher Association pre-
sented the school with an American
flag. The flag was presented by Mrs
]. r. Pirtle and when it was unfurled
above the walls of the building every
pulse beat was quickened and every
heart throbbed exultantly to see the
flag which had witnessed so many
bloody scenes and won so many gal
liant victories waving to and fro in the
October Sunshine.
In behalf of the Hartford School we
take this opportunity to extend our
sincere thanks to the Parent-Teachers
for the gift of the flag and for the in
terest taken in us and our work.

During the day and earlier hours of

them. They are seen at these hours
scampering about in such numbers
that the strange visitor would be led
to conclude that cat raising was the
city's chief industy. Whether they

that in the stillest hours of the night
cats walk abroad in amazing num-

An acid-stomach cannot digest food
properly. Instead, the food sours and
ferments and, passing into the intes-
tines, becomes a breeding place for
countless millions of deadly germs
toxic poisons they are called. These
poisons are absorbed into the system
and cause untold misery. So, you see,
1t is Just acid-stomach, nothing else
that makes so many people weak, list
less and unfit; saps their strength and
energy; robs them of their vigor and
vitality. Biliousness, bad liver, nerv-

FOOD FOR THE
... BABY CHICK

AS the body of a baby chick is COM
posed of IS per cent water sufficient
supply of good clean water should be
kept before it at all times. One Of the
first requirements of chick is grit.
Common sand is preferable to CONNER
cial grit as it is not quite SO sharp
and it not inclined to irritate the deli
cate digestive tract.
Nature has provided within the chick
sufficient food for the first SO to 48
hours in the form of the yolk of the
egg. This is absorbed just before
Matching. For this reason no feed
should be given for the first few hours.
At no time during the first two
weeks should the chick be given all the
feed it will eat. In order to get the
best results in raising baby chicks, it is
necessary to make the artificial condi-
tons under which they are raised cor
respond az nearly as possible to those
which would have prevailed in the
Wild state.

Girard the Man Who Built
Up Maritime Commerce and
Made Shipping Great Power

Stephen Girard, remembered now
chiefly as the founder Of a Philadel-
phia college, through whose gateways
mo ecclesiastie, missionary or minis
ter of any denomination" is ever al
lowed to enter, was also the man who
built up our maritime commerce and
made American shipping great power
early in the nineteenth century, So ne
is pictured in John Bach McMaster's
book, 1.-The Life and Times of Stephen
Girard" -. Ass 5tss Z.
Girard was born in France and be-
gan his shipping career In III with a
financially disastrous voyage to the
West Indies. Fortytwo years later he
had achieved such fame and wealth
that Joseph Bonaparte, in need Of
money, tried to put Girard in perma-
nent possession of his vast French es-
tates. In spite of recurrent losses
from the depredations OF pirates and
privateers, Girard's fortune grew to be
the greatest In his adopted country.
His fundamental theory Of trade
which brought his chief profits was
that wars and uprisings bring starva-
ton, and that the vital need of any
country at, war is wheat. During the
war of 1912, when the government
seemed about to fail in its attempt to
float public loan of $16,OO0,0O0, fully
two-thirds of the amount was sub
scribed by three rich men, David Par
ish, John Jacob Astor and Girard, who
contributed the largest amount, and in
whose bank the loan payments were
placed. 3d..
Believing that great fortune
should be a part of the nations
wealth, Girard, in his will, made large
requests to the state of Pennsylvania,
the cities of Philadelphia and New Or
leans and an endowment for the col
lege bearing his name.

Lopsided Rule Applies to
Every Limb and Feature

Everybody is lopsided. 1t may
come as bit Of a shock to pretty
girl to be told that her eyes are odd,
that one eyebrow is higher than the
other. Facts are stubborn things,
however, and she can find consolation
In that the rule Is without exceptions.
The sight of the two eyes in the same
head varies, as everybody knows; but
1t viii be news to many that the ears
follow suit. Our auricular organs are
unequal In their power OF hearing,
and they differ In size, contour, and
elevation. The lopsided rule applies
20 every limb as well as every feature.
For instance, one of your legs is
slightly shorter than the other. Two
sides of the human body differ the one
from the other in every particular, be.
ing governed by two lobes OF the
brain. The right lobe rules the left
side Of the body and the left the right.
