"Woodrow Wilson

The people of the United States
hail with delight the fact that Jo-
seph Tumulty, Ex-President Will
sons private secretary while he was
president. is going to give to the
American public book entitled
Woodrow Wilson As | Knew
Him. Mr.. Tumulty perhaps knows
Mr. Wilson more intimately than
any other American citizen. Many
of Mr.. Wilson's critics have been
writing about him since he retired
to the privacy of his home. hence
it seems that Mr.. Tumulty's book
will appear at an opportune mo-

been known only by the few who
were officially trusted with these

Be Loyal

Don't go abroad to buy some
thing when you have a few dollars
to spend and then ask your home
merchants to sell to you on time
when you are broke. If you have
bills with your merchant who has
given you credit and an extension
of time and accepted small pay
ments. and take your cash to the
city to spend with stranger who
has no interest in your town, nine
times ont of ten he will "do' you
because he never expects to see you
again. The home merchant will
save YOU money with reliable goods,
which he guarantees with his repu-
tation.
A town that is large enough and
good enough for a man to earn his
living IN is good enough for him to
buy his provisions in. If he does
not think so. both he and the town
would be better off if his tent were
pitched on other prairies.

The Royal Old Rebel

The Confederate Veterans will
read the following with keen inter
est and deep regret:
Chattanooga, Tenn, Oct 9.-COl.
Henry WattersOn, veteran Journalist.
former editor of the Louisville Cour-
ier-Journal and during the Civil
War publisher of the Chattanooga
Rebel, has written a characteristic
letter to the committee in charge of
the reunion of the United Confed-
crate Veterans here i'm which he ex-
pressed regret at not being able to
attend.
The letter. written from New York
City. and addressed to the chair
man of the committee. follows:
wish it were possible for me
to attend the coming Confederate
reunion. 1t is not possible, so you
must take the will for the deed.
Chattanooga possesses many
claims upon my affections. 1t was
there that / found my dear wife,
who. after 50 years of devotion, still
abides and between whom and my
self the relations then established
remain unbroken and unchanged.
She joins me in the regret that we
cannot together revisit the scenes
of our early love-making. But at
four score and upward functions of
every sort are beyond me.
Perhaps it is as we'll that NAV
not again look upon the thin grew
line soon to disappear forever from
the scene of this world for it might
put too great a strain upon an old
mans tenderest sensibilities.
My love to the old boys. 1t
cannot be long when we shall meet
on that beautiful shore. and when
we meet. be sure the bonnie blue
flag will be flying at the fore, and
the bands will be playing Dixie on
parade whilst the pretty girls will
be distributing the Chattanooga
Rebel to groups Of ragged red-nosed
angels who have not forgotten the
Rebel yell.
Sincerely,
