Story Of the High Heel.

The hlgh-heeled shoe was intro
duced In the Middle ages, when both
men and women took to it.
Man, however, soon found that he
could not live a mans life and do q
mans work while wearing high heels
and so resumed his low-heeled shoes
leaving high heels to the ladies, with
whom they have always been popu
lar.
The modern high heel is, in its way
q triumph of art, being of wood, which
is lighter than leather and keeps Its
shape. The heel contains a spring
which adds to the grace of its wear
er's walk. AS the lnstep is raised the
figure is thrown slightly forward, ant
a pronounced elegance Is the result
But 1t most be admitted the high heels
though improving the appearance, dc
not always improve the physique Of
their wearers, and are frequently
the cause of ill-health.

HARLAN'S LOSS

In the passing of Chief Of Police
James c. Pope last week in the hor-
rible tragedy that occurred in this
city, one of the best officials, If not
the best, that the city of Harlan ever
had, lost his life in the discharge of
his duty as he understood and saw it
Since he had been Chief of Police
of the city, he never had an unclean
charge preferred against him as an
officer or as a citizen. He not only
had the respect of the city officials
but the public in general, and his
going causes much regret and the
city officials have more than a right
to sorrow in his loss.
His place will be hard to nil and
those in authority to act should ex-
ercise every possible care in the se-
lection of his successor and the En-
terprise feels that that will be done.
Peace to the manly, courageous,
ashes of Jim Popei-Harlan Enter

APE EXPERT MONEY TESTER
esId 70 BE impossible TO Fool Animals
ef Slam With Any Counter
felt Money.

Tne people Of Siam are very fond
Of keeping monkeys OF various kinds
as pets Owing 10 their close associ-
alton with human beings, these crea-
lures become very intelligent.
One Of the most remarkable things
that these monkeys can do is to test
money. In Slam there Is q large
amount Of counterfeit money, perhaps
more than In any other country In the
world. As q consequence. the lot Of
the merchant Is q difficult one They
have, however, surmounted the trou-
BILE to q large extent by making use
Of apes 10 test the coins. Sitting by
the side Of each merchant Is to be
seen a solemn-faced ape. Every piece
Of money handed to his master Is at
once given to the ape. The animal
tests the coin with his teeth. II It
Is good, he throws It into the money
box; II II be bad he fiings It to the
ground.
The strange part about the busi-
ness Is that no white person has yet
been able TO discover how the apes
tell the good money from the bad. The
merchants politely refuse to explain
how the creatures are trained to carry
out this useful Office. The only sure
thing about the affair is that the apes
never make a mistake.

YOUR OWN FRIEND

You're the best friend that you have
So you must always try to be
Just the type of pal you like,
For you are your own pal, don't
you see?
Whose love is greater than your own
For you, the one that when you
die
1t seems the earth will cease to turn
Since you no more are standing by
The friend that shares your frowns
and frets,
And loves you when you do your
best,
Is you yourself, for you're the one
That makes you differ from the
rest
So give smile to everyone
In poverty or wealth
For when you're friend to others
You're the best friend to your
self. Opal Gray.

STATUES THAT HOLD SPIRITS
7uddhists Firmly Believe That Souls
Of Long Departed sages Are
Present In Images.

Marco Polo, the celebrated Venetian
traveller, with his two uncles, was the
first European TO travel in China. In
the gilded statue erected to his memory
In Soo-ChOw, China, the Chinese be-
lieve his spirit still resides. Accord
Ing to Chinese superstition, a fly or
spider Is the means by which the
spirits of the dead are coaxed back
to earth to occupy their statues. Five
hundred similar statues life size, line
the walls of dimly lighted room in
the Buddhist temple of that ancient
city. They contain the spirits of the
sages they represent, devout Buddhists
believe.
\ spirit is unable to enter a statue
unless another and freshly liberated
spirit is there to receive 1t, say the
priests. Through a door In the back
of new statue, therefore, a spider or
fly Is introduced The door Is then
sealed and the insect is left to smother.
Its spirit, flutterlng about inside the
statue, Is taken possession Of by the
soul Of the long-departed sage. Marco
Polo was brought back in this way,
the priests say. Worshipers burn in.
cense before the statue and seek com.
Hunion with the spirit of the alien who
dwelt so long In China, and even ruled
as governor of one of the provinces.

RESOLUTIONS

AT meeting of the members of
the Ladies Bible Glass of the Chris
tian Church of this city the follow
ing resolutions were adopted:
RESOLVED-That in the death
of Mrs. John NJ. Tinsley this Church
and entire city has sustained an ir-
reparable loss, in that Mrs. Tinsley
was an eminent representative of
the highest type of Christian woman
hood.
That her labors for good were
constant and untiring during the
entire forty years she has been a
member of this church and one of
her self-appointed duties was ar
ranging the communion table for
each Sunday morning service.
That by her Christian life and in
fluence she led many of the pupils
of the Sunday School to Christ.
Resolved: That we realize how
thoroly equipped she was for this
change; how perfectly she sailed the
sea of life, and now that she is
safely anchored in that blissful
haven, and peacefully resting in
sweet repose in the arms of the In
finite Love of Him who is Master of
all things.
Resolved: That we think of her
as having gone just a little way from
us and that the memory of her work
will never be forgotten. May men,
bers of this school and class so live
that we shall meet her in the great
beyond.
Resolved; That to the husband
and relatives we tender our deepest
sympathy and may God sustain and
comfort them in this bereavement.
May her class ever remember the
sweet prayer that she offered in
Sunday School on the day that she
was taken from us and went to her
great reward.
Resolved: That a copy of these
resolutions be sent TO her husband,
one placed upon the Sunday school
Record and one sent to the Noun
tain Advocate.

The Parent Teachers Association
held a very interesting meeting at

day, December 3rd.
This organization is doing much
to raise the standard of the public
school as we'll as to beautify and
add to the comfort of the building
and the grounds. Every patron in
town should become an active men,
ber of this organization which gets
into closer relation with and does
more to promote the welfare OF the
school than any other. 1t is the one
way of communication between the
teachers and the parents. The
teachers need your support and you
owe it to your children to do what
you can to make the school what it
should be-
The teachers of the High School
are working hard to bring the con-
ditions up to the A standard as well
as to make school life enjoyable for
the students.
Don't forget to boost a new gym
nasium for the High School.
A pair of new scales has been in
stalled thru the agency of Mrs. Rug
giles. By the use of these scales and
a chart the teachers are able to de-
termine whether the children are
developing physically as they should
A new chemical apparatus is be-
ing installed by the Agricultural de-
partment for the benefit of the H. S.
We believe that this will prove a
valuable asset along the line of our
work in science.

sAvrNc OF MONEY
NOT ALL OF THRIFT

II Is we'll to remember that the
mere saving OF money is not sum
total Of thrift. This is a point that
frequently is not given enough at
tention. Too often thrift is con-
sidered synonymous with tight
fistedness.
II II were true that thrift con-
sisted merely of narrow-minded
process OF boarding, this country
would never have attained It's pres
ent exalted place, because most OF
our national leaders have been sue
cessful primarily through thrift.
Thrift Is no more the manifesto
tion of selfishness and small-mind-
edness than Is success itself. Thrift
does away with waste. II is CAREFUL
planning and wise spending. 1t is
efficiency and progress. Washington
once advised a friend that 'it is
not the lowest priced goods that are
always the cheapest" And in this
advice he reflected one OF the great
truthes of thrift. Spend money saw
lngly. Save money sensibly.
We have had too much one-sided
teaching on this subject. Too much
emphasis has been placed on the
word "save" and not enough on the
word thrift" in its broad and pro-
gressive sense.
Let us understand more fully
that 1t is essential to save with pru-
dence. 1t is also Just as necessary
from the standpoint of progress that
we learn how to spend wisely, and
achieve success thru the exercise
of good judgement and rightful
transactions.
1t would not be possible to extol
too highly the simple virtue of saw
ing. Since the dawn of human pro-
gress IT has been one of the most
necessary of ell personal practices.
Every encouragement should be
given to those who are saving. But
the good work should not stop
there. 1t is sometime the better part
thrift is to spend a dollar than save
it, and more economical to purchase
an article for $40 than for S5. The
right kind of spending keeps busi-
ness going, creates demand for la
Dor, builds up our cities and offers
incentive and reward for enterprise
and proficiency.
Unless we understand and prac-
tice all these things we do not COM
prehend thrift. Times Star
