In Paducah there was a husky ne

ruled the black belt by a combina-
ton of Drawn and intimidation. One
day there got off a boat a little
yellow darkey, a stranger, who had
some reputation as a prize fighter
Into saloon he went and ordered
refreshment. As he was pulling
off a bill from an enormous roll to
pay. for it, Bull Shackelford laid
heavy hand on his shoulder. "Say,

care of. You Just pass over that roll

but he did raise his hand, and he
flicked off Bulls hand very much
as he would have swept off a fly
Bull squared off and glowered.. "Do
you know who | is" he demanded.
Use the bully of this town. When

Almost without moving his position.
the little darkey let go an uppercut
and Bull went down. When he re-
covered consciousness, he looked at
the little fellow long and hard. Fl
nally he said; Oars just one thing

Man: Who is you, anyway" Very
solemnly the little darkev replied:

The caves which early people
used were often very large. Some
of them contained more space than
a three-story house.
They had no windows, however
and were very dark. For many
thousands of years, people had no
lamps. 1t is probable they spent
most of their time outside.
As night came on, we can picture
them throwing themselves down to
sleep just inside the cave. In win
ter time, they threw skins Of ami
mails over themselves-such skins
being the first "bedclothes."
People probably took turns watch
ing the fire during the night.

MOVING INTO CAVES

Few. if any, of the very earliest
people lived in caves. This is proved
by the absence of human bones IN
the lower layers of rock beneath
cave floors. There are plenty OF
lion and bear bones in those layers,
but human bones are missing.
Where do You suppose the frst
Doubtless they crawled under
bushes whenever possible and made
little NESTS" from grass and leaves
1t may be that they sometimes
stretched skins over the branches OF
trees in such a manner as to pro
vide a crude shelter from rain and
snow,
There were many caves in those
days-why were these not used
for long time? Because bears and
lions were living in them already.
Men had no weapons good enough
to drive out the beasts.
Then the stone-pointed spear was
invented. Hunters were able to XII

so, and moved in.

High Scholarship

Miss Adelaide Risdon, one of the
graduating class OF the Lee School
this year, has a most remarkable rec
ord in scholarship. Entering the
first grade of that school, some years
ago, she has led her class each year,
and made the unusually high average
of 9S per cent this year, this being the
highest average of the graduating
class. Miss Risdon's career in the
High School will be watched with
much interest, as Allan browns, of
the graduating class of the Washing
ton School, this year, also made an
exceptional average, over 90 per cent,
and the friends of the two students
anticipate a most interesting and
friendly rivalry between them during
their High School course.

STORM INTERRUPTS

The storm which visited this ter

a considerable amount of damage to
the transmission system of the Elec-

Several spans of wire were burned
down due to lightning and wind, and
the crews Of the Alexandria County
Lightning Company and The Airing
ton Electric Company were kept con-
stantly busy from the break of the
storm on Saturday night until Sun
day night at 1000 P. NJ. The trees
breaking across the lines resulted in

minds will be occupied with prob
lens and tasks far greater than
any hitherto, which have affected
merely their personal fortunes and
felicity.
The signs of this readjustnent
are already becoming visible. Wo-
men all over the country are TAX
ing an ardent and intense inter
est in political matters. Here, IN
Alexandria, only last week, one
of our women workers who has
been prominent in the city man
agership movement since its be-
ginning-said on the day OF cleo
ton: This political work; these
larger horizons now open to us;
| | love it all! | would like to de-
vote my lie to itI' For our own
part, we believe she will make
all the better wife and mother on
account of it; and she has both de-
voted husband and interesting
children.
But work, to be curative, must
be enjoyable. There must be a
zest, an ardor in its pursuit, that
/ is superior to every other interest
! in life. Work without enjoyment
is drudgery. But, luckily, most
work consists in the overcoming
of obstacles. 1t is both ambition
TO conquer, and aspiration TO
achieve some ideal. This means
endless pursuit, since the ideal IS
never attainable by human means,
/ George Eliot'S remark about
square pegs and round holes IS
only partly true. Many men have
led lives distasteful and uncon-
genial enough 10 them, and found
their joy in their avocations. In
other words, where the labor is
performed simply for food, cloth
ing and shelter one can still have
his real work-hitching his wagon
Ito a star-and lead his real lite
aloof from elemental drudgery.
But OF course it is by far better
to have ones vocation cOngenial.
The great Spinoza ground glasses
by day and evolved a world-re-
nowned system of ethics by night.
Many OF the worlds greatest
names have been similarly situated
since genius invariably exaets
penalties in compensation for its
gifts.
The point we wish to make is
that work-whether vocation or
avocation-iS the one panacea for
the ills of life. The primal curse
OF earning ones bread by the
sweat of his brow becomes an
ever-recurring blessing when we
convert it to victory over inert
matter or spiritual ignorance. Wo-
men, too long denied this inesti-
mable privilege, are now Selling
the thousand opportunities al
forded them, and will doubtless
become happier and arrive at their
true social and political relation

of an equal and genuine help-mate

WOMEN AND WORK

The president of the board OF
Trustees Of Bellevue and allied
hoSpitalS-the largest institution
in the world for care OF the IN
sane-in a recent address, discuss
es the value OF work as a curative
for diseased minds. The thera-
peutic value of work is that 1t
takes the mind from too close an
inspection of itself. This intro
spection, or analysis OF the ego, is
the invariable resort OF the hui
man. mind when not occupied by
the objective world. a little OF 1t
is of course a good thing for all
OF us. But continued study of
ourselves leads invariably to an
characterization of our own I'M
portance and thus diStOrtS the
relative values OF human existence
out OF all proportion. This leads
to insanity, which is itself simply
a series of deductions from wrong
premises. The insane mind can
generally reason logically, and
sometimes brilliantly, from its
poStulates. But unless the FOUL
dation is correct the superstruc-
ture is bound to be false. The
diScernmeut of true premises be-
longs only to the unwarped and
unbiased processes of the mind
which we term sanity.
The women oil the world iOr
ages have not been allowed to
work at the serious tasks OF lie,
being regarded merely as adjunctS
TO mans pleasure or statements
for his hours OF recreation. Pos
seSSed of brains in every respect
equal to those OF men, they have
been driven back ON themselves
for the exercise OF their intellec-
tual powers. This umremitting
and endless introspection has led
TO the development OF their emo
tional nature at the expense OF
their intellectual. For some years
past, however, they have been
gradually assuming their righttuI
place in all the affairs of life, COM
mercial, scientific, economic and
literary[zand now they have
achieved their political enfrau-
chisement, and entered actively
into the warp and wool OF civic
relationships.
Unless we are greatly mistaken
one of the first effects will be a
REIMBURSEMENT of the ties OF mar
riage, There will be a marked
dimiuution in the number Of di-
vorceS. All because women will
no longer consider that their III
dividual happiness is the supreme
object in life; that their own per-
Sonal affairs are to take prece-
dence over those of the family
and state. They will now have the

yards. No one was picked up on this
lead.
All morning long crowds of men
surged around the city Jail watching
front and back.
Remarks were passed showing the
temper of the crowd and officers
fearing that some leader might start
something made arrangements to
get the men away TO safety until it
could be ascertained whether or not
they were guilty of any wrong.
The getaway was made like this:
The Moberly officers were all at
the city hall and Sheriff Milan and
Deputy Sheriff Steve Jones drove UP
in front in the sheriff's car.
Two policemen went into the Jail
and got the negroes and hurried
them to the sheriff's car, the engine
of which was kept running. The
men were scarcely seated before the
car was under full speed and Mr.
Milan broke all traffic rules in the
rate at which he went lckety-split
down South Clark street. Just where
the men were taken is not
known, but it is safe to say they are
not in the county.
One of the negroes has lived in
Moberly seven years. The other has
been here about year.
Police officers say they are both
good workers and have never been
in any trouble while living here.
