SILENCE

DLAY the silent part in all your
- joys and sorrows. Let neither eX-
cessiye happiness nor great grief over
whelm YOU.
Control your speech and spirit Under
all conditions, even when the changing
din around you urges you to trumpet
tongued rctortS.
When the storms of tnischicf-mak-
ers shake your house of clay TO its
very foundations and cause YOUR soul
to trembIe with apprehension. hold
your peace.
Be cool and calm and patient.
To be otherwise is perilous as it
invites fresh attacks from those seek
ing your destruction.
Curb resentment through the Snarl-
ing tempest; lift up your face to the
whirling clouds, and remember that
beyond them there is always the clear.
serene sunlit sky, Indifferent to the
clam0rous noises below.
Let not your heart be troubled"
Think of the content that will Ill
timately be yours if you hold loyalty
to the right course and continue in
well doing.
Think of the eyes that are watch
ing you, the loved ones who are de-
pendent on you. trusting and believ-
ing in the nobility of your soul.
Do nothing, think nothing and say
nothing that will shake their faith in
you, or cause you to lose faith in
yourself.
BY keeping still in great stresses
of emotion the atmosphere around you
becomes cooler, and your enemies or
accusers gradually lose their heat and
become more easily susceptible to
reason.
Silence is the most magnificent and
impressive thing in the universe.
What more sublime than the hush
of starry night in the solitude of
vast hills or endless plains?
What more than silence imp1csses
so deeply, so profoundly. the thought
full man or woman of his or her in
significance?
These close intimacies with Nature
beyond all others, bring home to us
long forgotten promises. old fees and
friendships lost in the mist of years,
with startling clearneSs.
But the best thing about silence

ENJOY THE GAME

ENTLEMEN who play golf will
~ tell you that the man who tries
too hard never does very well at it.
incidentally, he never gets any fun
out of the game.
There are many parallels between
golf and life, which is doubtless the
reason that so many people are devot-
ed to it.
game. Yet there are many of its
followers who can see only the advan-
tage of winning, and who come i'll sour

FRESH FISH

TN THE parts Of the country where
fish may be caught, cooked and
eaten the same day, there Is no more
appetizing and healthful food. Fish
should be cleaned and placed on ice,
never leaving it until put into the oven

and the dish appetizing.
Pike, bass, pickerel and perch all
abound in the fresh waters. There are
any number of ways of serving them.

usually fried until crisp and brown.
They should be rolled in seasoned
flour before cooking.
A meaty fish is very good boiled in

standardizing the coinage ratio at
not less than 15h ounces OF silver
to one ounce Of gold.
The preamble OF the league said
Decentralization Of silver was forced
on the world by certain European
influences for selfish political pur,
poses. 1t has occasioned in the
United States in general, and the sill
yer mining industry in particular, a
direct loss in value OF silver produc-
tion OF more than one billion dollars
and incalculable indirect losses"
Frank H. Norcross, of Reno, for
mer chief justice Of the Nevada su-
prame courts was chosen president; /;
Charles H. Thomas, former United
States senator from Colorado, vice
president; H. A. McCraney, former
secretary of the national silver party,
secretary, and B. F. Lynch, banker
of Berkeley, treasurer. The execu-
tive committee is comprised of Lewis
H. Aubrey, former state mineralogist

Receives Two and 0ne-HaIf
Times as Many Votes as
His Nearest Competitor
(Short Term)
(Long Term)

While there were 75S votes
cast, nine were thrown out by rea.
son of the voters casting their bal.
lots for two candidates for the short
term. This made the votes illegal
as only one candidate could be voted
for and it was impossible to deter
mine which candidate was to receive
the vote,
By their votes the taxpayers and
residents of Tonopah decided Satur-
day in a most decisive manner that
they desire business men at the head
of the educational life of Tonopah,
when they elected Warren Richard
son trustee for the short term of
Tonopah School District No. 90 Mr..
Richardson received 500 votes out
of total of 749 ballots cast, while
his nearest competitor, Sara Med
Martin, received 200 votes.
1t was evident throughout the vot.
ing that the parents, taxpayers and
voters in general, wanted a school
trustee elected who will work in har-
mony with the holdover members
of the board, and for that reason
they rallied to the support OF Warren
Richardson, who has been a sue.
cessful business man of Tonopah for
many years, and a man who has the
best interests Of the community at
heart, and especially so far as the
welfare Of our children is concerned.
They wanted member on the board
who is possessed OF no wild notions,
but on the other hand, they wanted
member who is a father, and who
knows the needs of the schools of
this district.
The polling booths in the gymna-
SUM OF the high school building
opened promptly at 9 o'clock in the
morning, as per schedule, and not

its readers believe. Casting of votes

the day there was the greatest ac-
tivity in evidence that was ever wit.
messed in a school election conduct
ed in Tonopah. Voters continued to
exercise their franchise throughout
the morning, but during the noon
hour there was somewhat OF a con-
gestion, but the situation was met
in a happy manner. At o'clock,
just before the closing of the polls,
there was long line of voters await
ing the opportunity Of casting their
ballot, and they were rushed through
with promptness, the outer door Of
the building being locked.
Counting of votes did not start
until nearly midnight owing to the
discovery that there were more
votes cast than names appears on
the poll book register. 1t thus be-
came necessary to check the list
from the grand register which had
been secured from the county clerk.
No one was denied the privilege Of
voting, but on the other hand the
election was conducted quickly, and
those desirous Of exercising their
franchise were not compelled to wait
any great length of time in any
particular instance.

ALLOW FOR FUTURE TRAFFIC
Roads in Tennessee Shows Sur
prising Fact.

Prepared by the United States Department
of Agricuiture.)
In building a road liberal allowance
should be made for future increase in
traffic, says the bureau of public roads
of the United States Department OF
Agriculture. A traffic count conducted
by the bureau in cooperation with
Tennessee officials on a number OF
roads in Dawson county, in which
Nashville is located, shows surprising
facts when compared with a similar
count in 1916. During this period au
tomobile registrations have doubled,
while the number of motor vehicles or
the roads is five times as great as iL
1916. In 1916 horse-drawn and motor
vehicle traffic were almost equal In
volume. In 1921 horse-drawn traffic
had increased only slightly in volume
and constituted IS per cent Of the
traffic, motor vehicles constituting 81
per cent.
Observations in this and other coun
tries lead to the conclusicSl that vol
ume of traffic may increase in much
greater proportion than the number OF
motor vehicles and will also depend
to a large degree on the condition OF
Improvement of the road and on the
economic conditions in the adjacent
territory.
