month to fraction OF cent in value above
me dollar Of the United States, This is pridefu
moment for Canada. Not long ago the Canadian
dollar was at discount of 16 and II per cent in
American money, and the change denotes sound
business and prosperity that is enough to make
any country proud.

Canadian dollar the advantage over the American
dollar has been the enormous sums spent in

Melville DAVIDSON Post is writer who needs no
introduction anywhere, and West Virginia has
through him, achieved distinction which no other
native son, however, great and we'll known, has
brought to her. No other writer Is more sought
after by the periodicals OF the day. and no stories
are read with greater interest BY the public Posts
style is unique the construction OF his stories al
most perfect and his ability to attract and hold,
and continually increase interest as his plots do.
velope can hardly be equalled among the short
story writer's of the present the past, The West
virglnian is publishing serial by this widely
known West Virginia man. 1t consists of nine
mystery stories centering about the person Of
Monsieur Jouquclie" project of Paris police.
Those who are familiar with the work Of Melville
DAVIDSON Post will recognize in this setting back
ground against which he builds at his best The
West virginian congratuates its readers and itself
at being able to produce these Post stories. The
first story begins in Mondays paper.

GIVE THE HIGH soHoo1s RIGHT or WAY.

oMoRRow afternoon South Side Park Is to
i be The scene OF high tide in football enthus.
iasm for Falrmont's two high schools. FuirrIont
High and East Side High will play each other for
the city championship and the contest will be a
warm one and stoutly waged.
Mayor Conway has issued proclamation ask
ing that the business life Of the city subslde for
about three hours tomorrow afternoon and give
the boys right Of way The mayor believes the
high schools have earned this recognition, and the
public generally will agree with him.
over on the East Side OF the river is football
eleven that has worked increasingly since the team
first went on the field for practice aud on this sid,
grit that any city would admire The contes. be-
tween the two will be real exhibition of hign
school athletic sportmanship. and one that Will
thrill the behoiders.
The boys expect, aud they should certainly have,
the loyal support Of their townsmeu. Thore should
be great crowd Of enthusiastic people at the game
tomorrow. The sympathies will be divided %
course, for tho East Side will stick loyalty by t;s
team, aud this side OF the river will be largely
pulling for Fairmont High, but the point is Tar
the public to be there, warmly supporting which
ever side 1t happens to favor.
There is great deal>more to life than the dol
lar. Tomorrow, for instance, several hundred
young people of Fairmont would like to feel that
tho public is thinking of them, is believing In
thcm. That the public is interested in them and
cares for their success OF. their disappointment.
The business man who goes to the game tohor-
row and shouts himself hoarse is not going to lose
anything in the long run. He is going to gain a
great deal. Give 1t trial and see.

Religious pilgrims, thousands of
them, wandering countless miles from

where they may obey the dictates of
conscience
All this has the flavor Of bygone
ages. One is reminded of the flight
of the Hebrews from Egypt and of the
wandering of the pilgrims 300 years
ago. 1t is somewhat startling to dis
cover that pilgrims for conscience
sake exist today. And yet, remarks
