Another Milestone.

With this weeks issue the
American commences on its
ninth year Of publication and we
are gradually getting nearer to
the point where we can say that
the first fifty years Of publishing
are the hardest and most trying.
While the past year has not
been one Of very much material
growth with us we have never
theless gone along quite smooth
and enjoyed the usual good loyal
patronage of our home COM
munity and other customers
from distance. The lull in bust
ness Of the entire country has
naturally been felt in all lines of
industry--it reaches out into all
avenues Of trade but with bright
er prospects for the future we
commence our new year with
much hope and optimism.
Our aim is constantly to inn
prove and cause the American to
be factor in the upbuilding Of
its local community. the county
and as far as it reaches to give
local news and comment in as
bright and interesting a manner
rs ability permits news that is
read eagerly by the home folks
who may already know parts of
it, and read with interest by
home folks. relatives and friends
at distant points as a weekly
letter from home.
We fully realize that it is
utterly impossible for any news
paper to please all of it's readers
any more SO than it is possible
for a public officer to give uni
versal satisfaction---if such news
paper or public official has back
bone enough to express opinions
and take a stand on public ques-
tions now and then. However
when we do express opinions our
readers may rest assured that
they are of our own making
whether right or wrong.
We wish to thank one and all
for their loyal patronage and
general interest and sincerely
hope that we may merit a con-
tinuance Of same.

arises to pass anything else on

be a case of where the other

both drivers understand that
that is the course which will be

Next Saturday, Sept. 9th. is
the date Of the community fair
in Askov to which all are look
ing forward.
Indications point to that there
will be large exhibits in all de-
partments. perhaps the largest
in the history Of Askov fairs and
this is as it should be. 1t is a
good thing for any community to
have an event Of this kind once
a year. it brings out the value
of our section in a material and
educational way and strange
but often true acquaints a per-
son with his own surroundings
the productiveness Of his com
inunity and its value. You have
heard the remark that a person
is sometimes least acquainted
with what is nearest to him and
often is placed in a peculiar light
for just this reason. For two or
three years the writer lived
within two blocks of the Schlitz
bewery in Milwaukee, one Of the
largest of its kind in the world,
yet never passed through it to
view it's immense machinery,
thinking that that could always
be done on account of it's near
ness. We presume that many
can relate like experiences.
Let us all work to make our
fair big, interesting and educa-
tional, and visit it to see what
our neighbors and the whole
community are producing.

Cross Crossing Cautiously is
a phrase much used to warn the
travelling public against dangers
of railroad and street car cross
ings. 1t is a mighty good phrase
and should be uppermost in the
minds of all those travelling in
vehicles especially automobiles,
and also pedestrians.
Not alone is the crossing a
point Of danger but the danger
of accidents is here. there and
everywhere and sometimes
where least expected. especially
to those who might be termed
wreckless drivers. When a per.
son stops to consider it is really
strange that there has not beer
more automobile accidents here
in this community than there
has. just the other day one
automobile was seen to pass
another on the right hand side
in the Main street Of Askov anc
At a speed of between 20 and q
miles per hour. The only thing
that saves a wreckless driver o,

Rays From Human Hand.

A member of the faculty of the Uni. verslty of Pennsylvania made X-ray photographs by means of secondary radiatlous from his hand exposed to the action of a Crookes tube, which was so screened that its rays could not directly reach the photographic plate, Other things besides the hand, such as pieces of wood, zinc, and brass, were found to possess a similar property of being excited to the omission of inyls- ibIe rays by the action of the tube. On two occasions the investigator has suffered from inflammation of the eyes and throat when sleeping In a room where N-ray experiments had been conducted. and he thinks the cause may have been the secondary radia- tion from the air or the objects In the room.

AS he went noticed that he was carrying my umbrella, which has a curious horn handle studded with roundheaded tacks.
 He promptly lost hls way, and an hour later my friend, Mfr. Hut, who was hurrylng along the crowded Strand, saw man apparently looking for some one or something and car rying my umbrella!

NEVER IN HURRY
Turks Know Nothing of Modern
 Business Hustle"
Coffee "as ls" Coffee Central Feature Of Hospltallty-GrsstlnsS Marked
 by Much Ceremony,

In the Levant coffee Is the central feature of hospitality, the binding so- cIal link, writes a correspondent from Constantlnople In the London Daily Express. Its consumption partakes of a religious ceremony and the ritual is strictly lald down.
 When you call on a Turkish official, or, indeed, on any Turk you advance toward him with a sweeping movement of the right hand, touching your heart, lips and brow, which he returns. He then takes you by the right hand and ushers you to the best armchair on his right where you settle for half a moment: then. catching hls eye, you half rise; and repeat the salute, h. cluding in It all the other occupants of the room. Again a short pause, and he asks after the state of your re- speCtpd health. Praise be to God" you reply piously (meanlng that you are quite well, thank yOu). And your high exCellenCy's healthF God be praised" be returns, and when you have exhausted one anOther's familles there ensues another and longer pause.
 He comes out of a profound medi- tution, as If a bllndingly original idea had attacked him. "YOur high per sonallty drinks a cofree?" he inquiries, his hand lowering over the little bell lnseparOble from Turkish office table. You assent and the bell Is struck. A servant enters, buttoning up his coat In token of respect and folding his hands over his stomach.
 Every Turkish office, from the prime minister's to the mudir's in an outly- ing village, has an authorized coffee maker attached to 1t. Ills function Is 10 Tighten the dull round of daily toiI by mlnisterlng to very cultivated pulates.
 Before he touches the coffee 1t has been slowly roasted In an inclined re- volving cylinder over an ash or char coal fire, and then ground to a fine powder: to Insure absolute smoOthness this powder Is hammered on an anvil, a most tuneful proceeding. This final perfect uulntessenCe of coffee is mixed with the accurate quantity of sugar sncclfed, and the water added in the "ibrll" or "Iezve," which are two names for the same little saucepan. The jezve is pushed reverently among the ashes, which are then famed to the required temperature. and the cor- fee Is three times brought to the boil and three times cooled by the addition of a few drops of water Then once more for luck and It Is poured Into little cups without handles, like the slop-basin of a dolls tea set, placed on a brass tray and offered to the guest.
 After all this you may get on with your business, if you haven't forgot ten what it was.
