West OfNeW York City
Young Man!

The other day beautiful bunch of posies was
noted resting on the statue Of Horace Greeley in
New York City, and one of the metropolitan papers
that looked up the of the flowers printed the
following item next morning:
Miss Daisy of Horace
Greeleys Greeley Square yesterday out of graft
his advice go West which sent her grandfather to
Golden Gate 1t nusuai tribue most folks when
they act good promptly forget its author.
In 1872 Horace Greeley ran for President
against General Grant Everything he had said was
quoted by the papers, and these words were among
other things One day young man had applied to
him for work. Mr. Greeley had replied, 'My young
friend, don't know where you can get work just
now. But, young man, go West and grow up with
the country"
All the papers for years after that repeatedly
quoted the phrase, 1t was good advice then 1t is
good advice today-to the crowded, underWorked
restless, disconnected folks of New York City. Why
millions of them continue to merely exist in that
big, ammed city when they get into the open of
the great lands west of the Hudson and make
homes and contentment for themselves, is lasting
mystery to u.s.

NOVEL CMRE FOR COLDS

Shutting ont sniffles and nipping
colds at the first sneeze is the BUSH
ness set aside for the Coryza Closet,
which is planned for Founders Hall
at Wellesley College, Mass.
The Coryza Closet is An air-tight
room lined with zinc, and filled with
the healing and disinfecting vapors
of eucalyptus oil and formaldehyde.
According 10 the newspaper report,
the cold killing closet will function
somewhat after this fashion: when
a student feels sneeze dawning, she
will rush into the Coryza compart-
ment, shut her eyes, take few deep
breaths, utter college yell, and the
pulmonary menace will vanish"
A similar closet recently was test
ed in Simpson Cottage, the college
infirmary. The result convinced DR..
Catherine Raymond, the college ply
stefan, of its value.

the section on diseases Of children Of

No CAUSE 10 FEAR
SHIELDS DECLARES

Knoxville, June 10.-Un!ted States
Senator John X. Shields, in his adj
dress to the graduating clsss Of the
preparatory department Of Maryville
College, declared that he United
States has no cause to fear foreign
enemy.
'There is no foreign government
that can conquer and subdne Ameri-
ca" he said. 1.-THE whole world was
astonished when, in the recent war,
we raised ano placed i'll the field,
armed and equipped for battle with
ample supplies, four million men,
transporting two million of them
three thousand miles across the
ocean, and provided with formida-
bic navy, all within limited time.
We so demonstrate our great resour-
ces of man, wealth and our ability to
marshal them when needed and the
splendid, efficient, fortitude and
courage of our soldiers, that no ma
tion will ever dare to attempt to in
wade our country or conquer our
people.
"The dangers which threaten our
institutions come, / regret to say,
from forces within our gates.
These forces are pursuing policies
which, if successful, will change our
form of government, abrogate our
constitution and destroy individual
liberty, freedom of worship and the
rights ofprivate property. They are
becoming bo,der and more aggressive
every day in their efforts to cary out
policies.
''They must be met and defeated.
They cannot longer be ignored. .'The
price of liberty is eternal vigilance.
"The grandure Of the people who
established this great government is
in striking contrast with the charac-
ter of the mass of the immigrants
of the present day and their ideals of
government. This is a matter which
challenges our attention most seri-
ously."
Calling attention to the change in
the class of immigrants now from
those of fifty years ago, and showing
how the southern and eastern Europ-
cans are flocking to our shores in
stead Of the northern and western
Europeans as years ago, Senator
Shields pointed out the danger of
such class of people TO American
institutions. "You can not make
high grade Americans out of low
grade foreigners" he said.
