THE NEW YEAR

A year is an arbitrary division of
time, made for the purpose of en-
abling us to keep track of the pass
ing events of history.
The beginning of new year, or
New Years Day, is no more impor-
tant than any other day, but because
it marks the beginning of new
year we are accustomed to make it
special day.
This is the time for renewing the
past, and making plans for the fu-
ture. We cannot plan intelhgently
for the future unless we keep in
mind what has gone behind.
So, when we come to make our
new year resolutions, we must, if
we are to act intelligently, spend
some little time in looking backward.
What have we done during the
past year? And how have we done
it?
What have been our failures7
Why did we succeedq Why did
we failf
These are deep questions, but we
must meet them and answer them
honestly, to ourselves at least, if we
are to make the new year better in
any particular than the one just
ended.
All of us want success, but not all
of us will he permitted to achieve it..
1t was a wise old philosopher who
said: "It is not within the power of
man to command success, SemprO-
MUS; but we can do more, we can
deserve it,"
And during this coming new year
we can, all of us, strive to deserve
success in whatever il is that we do.
The effort to deserve success win
keep us so busy that we will have
little time for wondering if we are
nearing success, and if we go at it
in the right way we can get so much
enjoyment out of the effort to de-
serve success that it won't matter
much whether we achieve what is
regarded as success or not.
What is success, anyway?
A great many people now believe
that success consists not in what we
get out of hfe, but in what we put
into life. More and more people are
believing this every year, and are
spending their lives on this basis.
And il is the people of this kind
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1922-01-03

who make the world go forward.
People who live selfish lives,
whose efforts are devoted solely to
acquiring for themselves without
thought of service to others, do not
advance the world or any good
cause in it.
The success of the selfish man,
even if he achieves what may be
called success, is bitter thing. 1t
gives no pleasure to him or to any
body elsen He is a man whom no
body lov or envies, or strives to
emulate.
The great success in the world Is
to lead clean, useful life. If
man does this he will be happy and
contended, no matter what his work
or his station.
If we have made a resolution of
this kind for the coming new year,
there will be no need to worry about
anything else. All the other things
will take care Of themselves.

ROWAN COUNTY NEWS
By s. s. Classify

The last act of former Sheriff N.
l.. Wells was the most interesting
and successful moonshine raid of the
many he made during his term of
office. On December 90 he and his
faithful helpers, A. w. Fraley and
App. Perry, swooped down upon an
inoffensive moonshine still in the Vi
cinity of "Toad Eye" Green's, in the
Green Bend of Licking river, and de-
stroyed it, together with six gallons
Of moonshine whisky, about 400 gal
Ions of beer and a new "mash" that
had just been made. They first To-
Gated the still in a house about fifty
yards from where a family lived
and went to the dwelling house first.
Wells entered the dwelling, leaving
Fraley and Perry to take care of the
outside, and, peeping under the floor,
they discovered young woman hid
ing moonshine whisky in self-sealers,
which Fraley and Perry hooked out
about as fast as she placed them.
Discovering what was going on, she
came ont very much enraged, kicked
over two or three jars and broke
them, jumped on Fraley with all the
fury of tigress and a lively tussle
ensued. Fraley, who has looked in
to the blazing muzzles of deadly re-
volvers without hinching, was some
what unnerved by the assault of this
infuriated female and looked APP
pealingly to his faithful friend Perry
for advice as to the best way to
handle so delicate situation, where
upon App. said, "Try slapping her a
little, Alfred" but Fraley was too
gallant to strike woman and about
this time she took fit and fell fiat
to the ground. Then Wells, having
searched the house for men and find
ing none, arrived on the scene and,
gathering up the PROSTATE form of
this beautiful female sinner in his
strong arms, carried her tenderly to
her bed, and then the work of de-
struction began at the still house.
After 12-mile walk the posse ar
rived in Morehead with a small for
tune of-their loot and Saturday Fra
ley and Perry went back, arrested
the girl and another woman and
landed both safely in Jail.
Samuel Stalnper, one of the coun-
ty's most respected citizens, died on
Saturday at his home in Farmers,

SOMETHING FARMERS
SHOULD READ

The farmer being a business man
Ia seller Of goods-he ought to adj
vertise just as all other successful
business men advertise. He, too, viii
be successful in that little business
matter of winning bank accounts
when he adertises literally and intel
ligently.
But a flrst-class way to find out
that advertising doesn't pay" is to
advertise unintelligently. One Of our
justly noted farm magazines prints
two advertisements that illustrate
this point very clearly, indeed
John Smith, having ten very fine
Holstein cows, and being nearly out
of feed, ran this ad in his nearby
town paped:
For Sale-Ten cows. Price rea-
sonable. John Smith, Plodtown.
Then John sat down and waited
There was nothing arousing, or in
teresting, or attractive or appealing
in that ad. Moreover, it didn't tell
the facts that farmers wanting to
buy cows wanted to know. A few
letters came to John, every one of
them asking questions. Some even
desired to know what was the mat
ter with the cows that he was trying
to sell REASONABLY" John had to
write back answers to all the ques-
tons and then few more letters
came back asking more questions.
Meanwhile, the feed gave out and
John had to sell in desperation for
less than two thirds the value to a
neighbor who knew his predicament.
Our magazine editor says that
Tom Jones put the following ad in
Mis- country town paper:
For Sale--Ten heavy producing
grade Holstein cows, five years old.
Price, 800 each, Fresh in Septem-
Der. Forced to sell on account of
feed shortage. Tom Jones, Peptown.
During the next three days Tom
got several acceptances of his offer
right off the bat-providing the
cows were as he represented, of
course. The farmers who read his
ad didn't have to ask questions. The
ad told all they wanted to know and
they accepted when the appeal was
fresh in their minds.
Now, Toms ad cost twice as much
as John's--probably 80 cents more.
But Tom got $1,000 for his cows,
and John got only $3.50 for his.
Unintelligent advertising may not
pay, but intelligent advertising al
ways pays-always.
And there is nothing hard about
it. just write an ad that you your
self would like to read if you were
looking over the advertising col
umns.
Don't be miserly with your words +;
in the long run they cost almost
nothing. But don't waste them
either, folks. Tom didn't.

the following are to be deemed an es-

merchant ship must he ordered to sub

its character, before it can be seized. A
mercantile vessel must not be attacked
unless it refuses 10 submit to a visit and
search after warning, or to proceed as

and passengers have frs been placed
in safety. (2) ~BelIgerent submarines
