 Mrs. W. O. Mckay, who with the family, recently moved from here over to Oklahoma. few miles from here, lost her mind suddenly Tuesday. She was apparently all right Tuesday morning and when Mr. Mckay came in from work at noon she was consider ably deranged. She had written let ter and gave it to her small son of about eight years of age and told .liln to hide it and after she was dead for him to get it and give it to his papa hut when the father came to dinner the boy met him. and told him about the letter for him. The letter said that she was going to kill herself and as Mr. Mckay entered the house he. found her with a bottle of carbolic acid in her hand attempting to swal- low it, but Mir Mckay, after a hard tussel with her succeeded in taking it away from her, but she still says that she will kill herself sooner or later. The cause for her wanting to end her life is not known, or has not been re- vealed. They moved here few years ago from Pike county. There is some one watching her day and night. They cont allow her to remain by herself q moment at time. They have 3 children. The letter written stated who she wanted to have the children and where she wanted to be buried, and how she wanted to be buried. Her people was at once notified to come. They came and Wednesday morning they wanted to take her home with them but she says she will not go The thing she intends to do is to kill her self the first chance.
 They have gotten so here that they go the small distance of IA miles to dances, and sometimes there is preach ing less than 15O yards from some of them and the are too tired to go.
 There is no danger of hot air hurting the crops much in this part. If so the hot air being personally discharged lately would not be a stalk of any thing left. It would be scorched and burned up.

OVERTHROW GOVERNMENT

New York, Feb. ls.lThrough a,
"inteqlocking directorate" including
not more than 500 persons, the radica
organizations Of the country are at
tempting to gain control Of American
industry and destroy the present foru
of government, John W. Sullivan, for
mer member of the war labor board
declared today in an address befors
the National Civic Federation. The
meeting presided over by President
Gompers, of the American Federation
of Labor, was held for the purpose OF
considering methods Of combating rev.
stationary activities and the uphold
ing of American ideals.
'For the first time the forces which
seek the destruction of the present
basis Of our national life, have achiev
ed something like unity of purpose, y
Mr.. Sullivan said. They have COM
menced, this with an exchange of per.
sonnet among their various organiza.
tions. There is not today, so Tar as
can be learned, single conspiracy
against America which is not in touch
with all other conspiracies. The nal.
contents have learned the formula
which made Rolshovism in Russia q
success. Win first and decide after
wards which of our programs vii be
tried.
"The forces have wormed ahead way
into every form of organization that
might possibly be twisted to further
their ends.
"Today there is a real ami probable
communion b:tween disloyalt, a3d an.
archism. Bolshevism, revolution OF
every kind, religious, pacifists aud
many other 'isms' and there are rela
tions from these, not only to disloyalty
but from each to each of the Others.
Investigation CT 1875 pc. ms. Mr.
Sullivan explained, has shown that
they held memberships in 55 organiza
tons or an average of five each. One
man held II memberships. The o-gau
izations were divided into 1s groups
he said, pnd it was shown that The
leaders of one group could reach I'll,
others through contacts ranging from
hundreds into thousands in number.
"The interlockings which have been
brought about by these plural mem
berships are marvellous" he declared
The Ford group, for instance, ha.
ramification reaching every one, of the
II groups with 191 separate contacts
The Union Against Militarism crowd
reaches 16 groups, with 211 individual
contacts. Every group is represented
among the negro agitators and every
one among the agencies like the Rant
school and national conference of rad
zeal labor and Socialist governments
which are unifying the activities of
the radicals.

PEOPLE OFTEN CARELESS
ABOUT THEIR HEALTH

There are a number of more or less
scientific attitudes on the subject Of
health. The first, followed by perhaps
most people is to give no thought 10
the preservation of health or avoidance
of disease and if trouble arises to re-
sort to drugs or call the doctor. This
is Il very careless altitude. The second
is to be very careful to try to avoid
disease but pay no attention to the
cultivation of general health. This is
only half scientific. The third method
is to cultivate general health on the
ground that disease cannot attack n
healthy body and accordingly to pay
little attention to avoidance of disease
This is better than the first two atti-
tudcs but is not yulficient, for visor.
Gus people are no. always immune to
infectious diseases. Indeed such dis.
eases, such as typhoid and influenza,
make their most virilent attacks Gu

and best attitude is combination Of
the foregoing. Que should seek TO nro.
