We are indebted TO our music chair

Our club house and finance chair

nice and clean, an efficient maid in
the kitchen and finances managed in
most satisfactory manner This is
no small undertaking.
The officers have worked shoulder
to shoulder with the president, CIV
ing her great stimulus to meet OBJ
jections as they would arise.
We feel extremely grateful to our
hostesses for the year They have
nobly and generously responded to
the call of the social chairman there
by making our social hour very enjoy

Not New Style
Bobbed hair and earpuffs were
fashionable $500 years ago, accord
ing to the results of an investigation
conducted here by students of the
University of California who recently
produced .The Vision of Marpessa,1 .
a Grecian outdoor pageant
Several of the girls had demurred
at taking part because they feared
their bobbed locks would not look suf-
ficiently ancient An investigation
was started and the students and their
faculty advisors found that the Greek
women of centuries ago bobbed their
hair, used earpuffs and also resorted
to brilliantine and other beauty aids
on occasion.
Saturday afternoon the Woman's

The first men to cross the bridge

ing a Democrat, the second a Reed
man." and the third Republican,
and all good fellows. We under
stand the Democrat went straight
way across the bridge; the Reed
man" waded the ditch and crossed
from the other side, while the Re-
publican went across in circles. But
the bridge and the road are still
there for the countless multitudes to
travel, leading to and from certain
points, passing many byways that
come in to it or go out from it, lead
ing to and from many places where
happy and contented people abide.
Travelling this road straight ahead
will lead one either to Port Arthur
or Ontario, or you can leave the
road and go to Caruthersville, Pull
tite, Seldomseen or Whodathoughtit
Just so, our friends travelling the diff
ferent political roads, the byways
that lead to and from Democracy,
can find much to interest them.

FOR CONGRESS-.

For Congressman of this the
Fourteenth District, the Democrats
have three candidates, as follows:
Ershell w. Campbell, Ava; James
d. Fulbright, Doniphan; Gfboney
Houck, Cape Girardeau.
The Socialists have one-J. T..
Lionberger, Thayer.
The Republicans have one-Ed-
ward d. Hays, Cape Girardeau.
On the Democratic side there
were several other prospective can
didates in the nearby Southeast Mis-
souri, counties, but it seems none of
them could get up the courage to
enter the race. There were good
reasons why some of them wisely
chose to stay out.
In the final result only one can
be elected Congressman. He will be
a Democrat. There Is less doubt OF
this than ever before. And, mark
our statement, the Democrat is go
ing to be elected by the biggest ma
jority this district has given any
candidate in the last thirty years.
This makes it all the more impor-
tant that we need to have and must
have the best man. He should be
man who is not only able to do, but
who will do something-some man
whose chief ambition is not dis
pensing of political patronage.
The interests of this congression-
al district are too important to be
any longer represented by -
blank-blank in all except politics.;
but in that Edward d. Hays is the
color of the ace of spade.
In Washington Hays does not re-
present the PEOPLE of this dis
trict. He represents the POLL
TICIANS. His highest ambition is
to flunky at the Republican pie
counter. He seems to think that Is
what he draws his salary for. In
this connection The Missouri Herald
has a good supply of proof that at
the proper time will be made known.

DOING VS.. SHOUTING.

B. A. Jumper of Caruthersville,
representing a produce concern, was
looking after business here Tuesday,
Mr.. Jumper is a man always on the
right side and for the square deal
and was highly complimentary OF
sermon preached along these lines
by Rev. Elmer Peal at the Metho-
dist church in that city last Sum
day. 1t seems that Rev. Peal is try
ing to impress the idea that there is
as much or more in DOING religion
as there is in SHOUTING religion.
In other words, that the DOING of
religion is something of speedom-
eter, showing the amount OF re-
ligion with which the person is af-
fected. 1t is all right to shout. That
is good. But if there is nothing be-
hind the shout the echo is more
likely to fall through the floor and
descend than to depart upward
through the rafters. 1t is q very
poor investment to possess the sort
of religious credentials that Peter
will not recognize at the gate OF
gates. Turned away there, it is
too late to perfect the title. We
hone Bro. Peal will rontiue the
good work. We admire the man
like Paul of Tarsus, though for his
boldness martyrdom was his fate.
Perhaps, though, we live in a diff
ferent age to A. D. Sc.

LETTERS NEW BUILDING.

Thursday morning of this week
saw the beginning of the removal
of dirt for the foundation of the
Letter new brick building, which
will be constructed on the west side
of the Public Square, between the
Peoples Drug Store and the Doris
theatre building.
The building will be 45xS0 feet,
one story high, and divided into two
store rooms, one of which will be
used by L. L. Letter, owner, for his
hardware store, and the other by
Lee Spencer for general merchan-
disc.
The main feature of the building
will be in the handsome and unique
construction of it's front, which will
be of glass and tile, with regular
city style vestibule. 1t will have the
finest front and display windows in
the county, which shows Mr.. Letter. S
confidence in Hayti as permanent
and valuable business location.
Work on the new brick city hall
building, 37x54, will be commenced
as soon as the material can be put
on the ground. Besides these two
buildings several fine residences are
being constructed.
Thus Hayti grows, yet we claim
no boom.
