The reform work of the Florence
CrittentOn Mission, of Washington,

by Mrs. G. M. Follett, of Washing

the Christian church, and at tho
Methodist church at the evening
service.
Mrs. Follett is in Paris to seek
moral and financial support for the
cause which she represents. Tho

sion Homes in America and in for.
eign countries. AS O. result of the
activities of the Mission a fine farm
of more than three hundred acres

MANY. MANY THANKS.

Through the press of Paris the
members of Jemima Johnson Chap
Ter. Daughters of American ReVolu-
ton, desire to extend their hearty
thanks to all who contributed even
in the slightest way, to the success
of their entertainment, "The Feast
of Little Lanterns" given in the
Grand Opera House last week ID
those who carried forward the mu-
steal program, and, in fact, to each
and everyone who gave his or hcr
assistance toward making the enter
tainment a success, they extend
their warmest thanks. The enter
tainment realized a neat little sum
which will be devoted to the puf'
chase of marker for marking the
site of Martins Fort, one of the his
torical spots in the county, located
near Riddles Mills. This place was
made memorable during the war
with the Indians and looms up as
bright spot in the county's history.

THE OFFICE-SEEKERS AND THE
PUBLIC.

Many people have felt that some
discTedit attacheS to people who
seek public office. Their idea is that
| the office should seek the man, not
| the man the Office. Yet the man
who sists down and waits for job
to come to him, would never get Oh
in business. A few men of very su-
perior ability may be able TO take
/ this attitude because the community
is competing for their services. But
| the ordinary fellow must get out
and hustle and convince people that
he has energy and initiative. On
the whole it is also desirable that
men who desire public career
should get out and state their
claims for support, and tell what
they do if elected. Thereby people
get clearer impression of their
personality and purposes.
| Good candidates are beaten be-
cause they are too over dignified tc
get into the "hurly burley'' and
muck of politics. No man need feel
that any disgrace attaches to le-
gitimate canvass. OF course, the av-
erage politician is apt to go a good
deal too far. He is "all things to
all men," distributing around vague
promises which he can never fulfill.
Many men win their way by their
cordial handshake and apparently
deep interest in everyone Chey meet.
But when they get in they can make
good on but few of their pledges.
The American people need to sharp
en- their wits previous to every elec-
ton, and not have so many things
nut over on them. Men who have
not made a success of anything else
are not commonly useful public
servants No amount of smiles AND
handshaxes and rainbow promises
should be accepted in the place ol
positive achievement.
Another thing, candidates arr
usually office holders, who are either
seeking reelection or wanting an
other lob at the hands of the vot
ers and because they are candidate:
makes them too lax in the perform
ance of their present duties, DC
J cause the fear of making somebody
sore at them and probably loslns
their vote. These men should dt
their duty and brag about 1T ant
use it as an argument for the pub
lies support This is the case righ
now i'm Paris and Bourbon will
some of the candidates, and will
the election nearly two years OH, ar
we to have no 'service from ou
officials just because they are can
1idates?
Let some of our officials who wan
office make a hit with the peopl'
and enforce some of our laws, es
pecially automobile and traffic law
both inside the city and county.

IN LINE WITH THE HIGH COST
OF THINGS.

THE NEWS has received a letter
from one of the largest supply
houses in the country, which ex-
plains itself. Many Paris patrons
have wondered if we have been get
ring rich because we charged liv-
ing price for work Just read this
letter, part of which is printed:
Owing to the continued advance
in the cost of both labor and raw
material we have found 1T necessary
to make another advance in th,
price of all our products. Beginning
Monday, May "a. oil of our old
prices will be advanced thirty per
cent. The single exception is print
ed and autographed letterheads,
which will be advanced sixty per
cent. We are very sorry to be
compelled to Go this, but we believe
that your own experience will en-
able you to appreciate the situation.
We know that your customers wilt
find that others are adding a still
greater Surcharge."

IMPORTANT MEETING OF THE
COMMERCIAL CLUB TONIGHT

There will be an important meet
ing of the Bourbon County Com
merclal Club at the court house to-
night. CTuesday), May Is, at 1880
o'clock, at which matters or general
interest to the members of the Club
and the community in general will
pc discussed.
The Commercial Club has been in
an inactive state since the opening
of the world war, there being ap-
rarently no demand for it's activi
ties. But now that the country has
been restored to peace basis, and
another era of reconstruction is
about due it is we'll that the city
should have an active working Or
ganization. All around us we hear
of the activities of commercial bod
les in other cities, and it would b.
a shame if our own city should be a
laggard in the race for commercial
supremacy.
AT this meeting the matter of con-
tinuing the Club and of disposing OF
a money balance left in the treasury
will be taken up for consideration
Letters apprising the members ot
the inteLded meeting have beer
mailed out by Secretary Lowrenct

ERRONEOUS REPORT OF w. G
SWEARENGEN DEATH

Relatives and friends in this city
of Mr.. w. G. SweaIengen, the we'll
known trotting horse trainer and
driver, of Carthage, Ohio, were
greatly perturbed and grieved last
week when the announcement was
made in the daily papers of the
death in Cincinnati of a man by
that name. Nothing had been
heard of the illness of the former,
and upon investigation the fact de-
veloped that the dead man was an
other w. G.. Swearengen. The SIM
ilarity of initials and name led to
the erroneous report of the former
Paris mans death.
Mr.. Swearengen, who is the ia
ther of Mrs. Julian r. Howe, and
Mr.. Earl Swearengen, of this city,
lis in excellent health, and follows
his calling each day with all the
vigor of a much younger man. He
vigorously denies the report of his
death, and states that he is very
much qualification to his relatives
and friends.
