ENCOURAGING

It is most encouraging, indeed, to
say that So many citizens OF Ores
den, most of them property owners,
too. are enthusiastically in favor OF
the bond issue for school purposes.
Some Of those most intensely inter-
ested and most jealous for the bond
issue have no children to send to
school-but they are patriots-men
who have a profound regard for the
welfare Of the community that has
done so much for them and who are
not now willing to turn the back Of
their hands upon that community.
These men are not warts on the
Dresden enterprise and Sharon tribune. (Dresden, Tenn.) 1907-1997, 1921-12-16

community. In fact, we don't know
that there are any such here.
This school proposition simply
means this, and nothing more: The
making or the marring of Dresden
To repudiate the bond issue means
che deadest town in the United
States-to ratify it means-well, If
not the best town in the United
States, one Of the best and most at
tractive school buildings in the state
of Tennessee, additional homes and
more citizens for Dresden.

MHAT TO GIVE

The question uppermost in the
minds of nine-tenths of our people
right now is, "What to give"
There is one thing that every man,
woman and child, without regard to
wealth or poverty, can give and
which is the most valuable, the most
last 'ng- more enduring than time
itself-and that is love, friendship,
sympathy.
This gift will not cost one penny.
1t can be given by every one. 1t is
the most sought-after gift of all
gifts today, and, we might say, the
least thought-after. How the soul
Of mortal man is hungering and
thirsting for love and friendship and
sympathy! And how easily bestow-
ed! No cost, no work-very little Eff

a TT WAS Christmas morning.
Old Hiram Palmer sat by
the window waiting for the
postman. Christmas eve
had been rather bleak. He
had seen, from the window, groups OF
people passing from time to time, hur-
rying, smiling, such gay, happy peO-
pie,

Outllved his friends, his immediate
family, his day had long since gone
by. He had given generously to hos
pitfalls and charitable institutions and
number Of personal presents. He
always, for example, sent some Of the
large baskets Of fruit the towns lead
ing shop arranged so attractively, to
those he knew would never buy them
selves such delicacies.
The last Christmas he had only re-
ceived two presents. One from his
nephew out West and another from
a grandchild.
He was waiting for these now.

And his grandchild had said:

 Anyone who has seen the work of the girl marksmen on local rifle ranges knows that there are many, many safer places to be than acting as target for one of the girls firing.
 Police and bank revolver ranges were offered Postmaster William J. Nagle for the practice of the girls, who now take keenly to the range work. although there were many of them skittish when the practice be gan. To begin with, q "+5" is a pret- ty big handful for a slight girl of eighteen. And there were many who at first were guilty of placing their hands over their ears because of the terrible noise.
 But that was when they were nov ices some weeks ago Now they take pride in their rank Of marksmen. They handle revolvers like policemen, and the targets of the range in the basement of 'the First and Old De- troit National Bank bear witness that high score at sixty feet is the rule and not the exception.

stone into such a pickle was in full cry
after him, like Tray, Blanche and
Sweetheart, for a wicked agnostic. no
better than "a heathcn man and pub
licsn,' who, because OF this shocking
work, could certainly never hope for
any political advancement in Christian
England. So, We remember With ex-
ceeding JOY he was quite laughed or
scorned out OF court, when he was
member OF 'Grandolph's" Fourth Party

iianentary faneur; and when that
"languid lily" was appointed Chief
Secretary for Ireland there was a grin
Of derision that stretched from Lough
Foyle to Bantry Bay at thought Of how
quickly he would be annihilatcd by the
rampant and embattlcd Home Rulera.

compared with that which he ha. now

brackctcd with Locke and Hamilton
or with Pitt and Canning?
1t may not be cxtravagant to answer
both. For, secure rs is his place in
political history. it is scarcely less
certain that he must always be
rcckoned with as ono of the master
n'nds in the great philosophical.
ethical and religious upheavals and
transformations which marked the
closing decades of the nineteenth cen
tury, and that this volume with its
unsurpassed dialectic subtletv and
extraordinary capacity of literary ex-
preston, must always stand as one of
the conspicuous landmarks of thought
OF that age. No longer is it to be
regarded as heretical, agnostic or any
thing of that sort. We should not he
surprised if there were those in the
ranks of the clergy who now reckon
IL as rather conservative in it's
