Keep the Door Open

The founders of this government
would have been shocked had they
thought the time would ever come
when faith in the intelligence and
patriotism of the people should be
at so low an ebb that the public's
business could not be conducted in
the open. Why anybody should
insist on the disarmament confer
ence being held behind closed doors
ls an inscrutable mystery. The
fact of the business is the average
little fellow. however he may have
become intrusted with great pub
lie function, soon regards himself
as thing superior to common NOR
tails, possessed with a power under
all circumstances to do the right
thing. and that the people are
usually incompetent to attend to
their own business. Sessions of
the United States senate behind
closed doors ought to be abrogated
and everything done by congress
should be subjected to the light OF
pitiless publicity. | am in hopes
that when the conference meets and
the question of limiting the dis
cussion of the disarmament of the
nations comes up for consideration
that everything will be conducted
in the open, that the game will be
played with the cards on the table,
and there viii be no Discrimination
or secrecy resorted to. The people
own this country. They produce
its wealth and fight its battles. and
they have the right to know what
is being done and for what purpose
1t is done. Let the light shine in.

CENT A MILE RATE To
OLD SOLDIERS REUNION
Will Be Held at Chattanooga on
October rs, 20 and n

Passenger agents throughout the
southeastern territory have been
notified that the rate for the occa-
sion of the United Confederate Vet
erans' Reunion at Chattanooga Oct
25. 26 and 27 will be l cent a mile
for everybody. A delegation of
Chattanoogans went to Washing
ton to protest against the original
purposes of the Southeastern Pas
senger Association to grant a rate
of l cent a mile only to the Con-
federate veterans and their families
and rate of the fare and a half
round trip to the United Sons of
Confederate Veterans and to the
public.
The Chattanooga delegation COM
planned that unless the railroads al
lowed a rate of ] cent a mile for
everybody the forthcoming reunion
would be a distressing disappoint-
ment. Passenger Traffic Manager
TaylOe of the Southern Railway. to
whom the appeal was made, is the
son of an ex-Confederate soldier.

Most Believe IN Himself

One outstanding trait in the big
man is self-conidence. He believes
In himself He takes the attitude
that he can do anything that he
sets out to do. He has not only
faith. but courage. He wastes no
time thinking what others will say.
or listening to the doubts and fears
of the timid ones. He sets a mark
for himself and never doubts his
ability to reach it. Any man who
wishes to succeed must begin by
believing thoroughly in himself.
He can not expect others to believe
in him unless h. believes in HIM
self The world is very apt to ac-
cept him at his own valuation.
Self-confidence begets confidence of
others. This means opportunity.
Given the opportunity, man has
the chance to prove himself. But
he never will have that chance nn-
less he believes in himself Lex

THE COUNTRY EDITOR
STANDS AT THE HEAD
Every body Has Written About
His Trials and Tribulations

Everybody has written about the
the trials and trihulations of the
country editor. but few have writ.
ten about his joys. He stands
ahead of the preacher, the lawyer
and the public speaker. because he
never talks to empty benches. but
speaks in all the homes where his
paper goes. He never makes i'm
promptu speeches which generally
disgust the audience. but writes
with deliberation and premedita-
ton. The preachers influence for
good seldom reaches farther than
his congregation. while the
editors field for good reaches all the
congregations in the country. The
lawyer makes a good speech in the
church house and only one or two
hundred persons hear him, but
when the editor writes good edi-
torial it is copied in various papers
in the state. The editor distributes
more flowers than a florist and he
asks nothing in return for them but
thanks. The editor has an oppor-
tunity to do the individual citizen a
service and he never hesitates to- do
ii. if consistent with obligations to
the public. The editor has the
greatest opportunity to convert men
apd women to his way of thinking
on public questions. As the light
house on the shore warns the ships
from the rocks the editor can warn
the populace from frauds and fakes.
The editor has the greatest oppor-
tunity to protect society from evil
by standing for the law and creating
public sentiment for it, The editor
never tires of boosting his town and
county. and if both do not grow it
is not his fault. He helps the de-
serving young men With words of
and restraints the
old by words of warning. His field
of usefulness is broader than anyone
else in the community, and if he
does not get any returns for his ef-
forts for settlement he has a suffi-
cient reward in seeing things get
better. He reioIces in his oppor-
tunity for service to his fellow man,
his town and his country and goes
on his way rejoicing. whether or
not he gets any returns for it

A FEW WORDS ABour DlrHrHERIA.

A FEW WORDS ABOUT DIPHTHERIA
Diphtheria is the most dreadfu
disease that affiicts children. 1t i,

And it is dreadfnl because of it.
awfully distressing manifestations
Any one who ever stood by and
watched healthy, beautiful child
choke to death and yet could dc
absolutely nothing to relieve the
little sufferer while its eyes were
pleading for help, can never forget
the scene, and can but pray that
be might be spared the repetition
of the heart -hreaking experience.
Formerly the death rate was forty
percent or more. Since the advent
of antitoxin it is about ten percent.
The greatest saving of life. how
ever, is due to the prevention OF
the malady by the administration
of antitoxin to those who have been
exposed. There il no way to tell
Just how many lives are saved in
this may, but wes know more lives
are saved thru prevention than thru
cure.
| have been asked many. many
times if there is no way by which a
child can be rendered permanently
immune. | have always answered
that | was very sorry to answer NO.
since antitoxin protected only for
a few weeks. But | am happy to
be able to tell ali mothers that there
has been perfected plan by which
at least 80 per cent of children can
be rendered permanently immune.
The schools of New York City and
other centers are now being inn
munized 1t looks like an un-
speakable crime for us to fail to do
this for the children whom God has
given US Will our people not rise
up and demand that this be done?

boards that their precious
little ones be given a chance for life

mothers want their children pro-
tected. they can have their wish.

ballot is mightier than pen and
