Visited by st. Clairsville Chron
icle reporter the couple sat in rapt
attention over an hour while the
former related the high spots"
in the news of the world outside
Radio. movies, and the latest in
yentions Of science were but fairy
stories and many were unbelieyed.
Even the everyday life in that i'm
mediate vicinity was unknown to
the two isolated persons. Neigh
boris living within few miles told
the visitors that years ago they
had abandoned any attempts to
communicate with the elderly
couple, and left them to their fate.
I'VE don't want nothin' to do
with nobody and we don't want
you'ns to come back here any
more" snarled the woman as she
relapsed into her accustomed
speech when efforts were adyanc-
ed toward an auto trip to the city.
THE city is a wicked place and
will ruin man or woman Let us
alone and tell everybody else to
do the same" was the parting
nhrase hurled at the county Of
fetal as the trio, the first to visit
the farm in years, wendell their
way through the wilderness OF
brush and briars--back to ciyiliza-
ton.

AUTHORITIES DISAGREE

Herbert Howe picks the ten low
Hest girls this side Of Paradise" de-
clares leading movie" magazine.
1t then prints their pictures to ac-
company the statement and so in
vites the attention of the public.
Furthermore it has the audacity to
select the entire ten from actresses
celebrated in the films.
Now the reader cannot, from the
printed page, appreciate the at
Effectiveness Of these ladies. but if
he based his conclusions on their
faces as printed he naturally will
resent Mr.. Howe's assumption of
their surprising pulchritude. Many
reader will so be warranted in
concluding that he could pick ten
prettier girls who know vastly more
about washing dishes than about
displaying their charms for the
films.
Not all the beautiful women are
on the stage or in the beauty con-
tests declares an observant sub
scriber Of recognized discernment.
and his conclusion we unhesitatingly
endorse, though not a candidate for
political Office.

BY reason of the fact that the
Kennebec Journal is able I" serve its
readers by going to press three OF
four hours later than either the
Boston or Portland morning papers
its readers obtain the very lates!
news of the Associated Press.
As an instance Of this, those who
depended for their Friday morn
ing news on those papers die not
get the most gratifying tidings Tor
which the country has been looking
since August 81, the excellent report
sent out by the Associated Press OF
the finding Of the aviators lost in the
Pacific. The first A. P. brief bulletin
was sent out 20 minutes past mid
night and this was later followed by
the full report printed in the
Journal.
Our readers are reminded OF this
in no desire to criticize other excel
lent and newsy papers. but simply
for the purpose of calling their at
tention to the fact that the Ken
nebec Journal, by reason of its AS
sociated Press service up to the CLOS
ing of the wire, is able to give It's
readers the latest morning news.

"Goodby," parked the Yellow Dog

Billy Goats, tossing their horns
which were tipped with shiny silver
caps, and throwing out their hoofs

ALL TOGETHER, NOW

Dwellers in the Middle West, in the
great North West, on the Pacific, IN
the South do not hesitate to lift up
their voices on behalf of their part
of the country. They go further at
times and demand legislation design
ed specially to benefit their section
seemingly regardless Of other sec
lions. That sort of endeavor is be-
ing overworked. Within proper limi-
tations it is essential to progress. II a
section of the country does not know
what it needs why may the country
as a whole know about it? This be-
ing one country, each spart having
what it needs would conduce to the
advantage of all parts. We are
speaking of what is needed, not as
to what is wanted.
Since Uncle Sam became an entity
New England has kept pretty well
informed respecting the needs Of the
other parts for the reason that 1t
was contributing so much of capital
and enterprise to the country's de-
velopment. The degree of this in
terest is now of lesser proportion
than once, but it is by no means
negligible. Now New England has
needs peculiar to herself and within
proper limits she is warranted, in
deed, is obligated to make these
known, to work for such ends. 1t is
gratifying to learn of the growing
determination to do that very thing.
Governor Brewster was given an
ovation at Portland when he be-
sought the New England Kiwanians
to get behind a united New England
effort to assure adequate demonstra-
ton of New England products. They
We're with him to man and go home
resolved to do what in them lies.
There will be cooperation from the
Rotary and other organizations of
like character. Such an influential in
terest in this matter cannot fail to
make itself felt. Governor Brewster
is doing lot to arouse the folks to
the excellent possessions they already
have, and to remind them there rests
with them an obligation to make the
best Of these and to live up to their
traditions. All together, New Eng
land!

Emphasize the Golden Rule


Sept. s, 1925.
To the Editor
Dear Sir:
May call the attention of your
readers to the new emphasis placed
on the Golden Rule as a guiding
principle in international relations,
by the action of the recent Congress
of nations in Stockholm, which ap-
pointed December 9Th for internal
tional observance as Golden Rule
Sunday on behalf of the orphans of
the Near East?
The Golden Rule is now recognized
as the most universal proposition
for human conduct ever offered for
the attention of mankind.
In the whole circumference of life,
there is no point that it fails to
touch. From every angle of expert
ence it confronts conscience with a
comma nding law. For every ques-
ton of duty it has an imperative
answer, for every human relation a
fawless solution. If men and women
would all observe it, every clash and
friction that sets up i'll will would
disappear.
The Golden Rule teaches all citi-
zens to observe and preserve the SUI
premacy or laws, government and
justice, sincerely dedicated to COM
mon and equal rights for every class
of the people.
1t teaches all statesmen to uphold
fair dealing, irreproachable honor
and the sympathies of unfailing
human good will, alike in national
and in international politics.
1t teaches all nations to seek and
find the way by which every peoples
aspirations for life, liberty and
worthy development may be satisfied,
without trenching on the rights of
neighbors or sowing seeds of enmity
in the field of the worlds peace,
1t teaches the prosperous and
happy everywhere to open hands of
bounty to the poor, the miserable
deprived and hopeless throughout
the globe.
Surely no observance can have
wider appeal or a greater potential
usefulness than Golden Rule Sunday
on December 9Th
Yours truly.
c. V. VICKERY,
General Secretary,
Near East Relief.

Well little folks who read my daily
stories. here we are again, you and l,
waiting to hear what happened at the
Baby Elephants birthday party. The
little fellow was just cutting the
birthday cake, wasn't he? The little
candle in the centre flickered and
fared in the wind that blew through
the open door. Only one little candle,
for the baby elephant was just year
old, you remember.
BE careful not to burn the little
finger on the end Of your trunk"
warned the big Circus Elephant, as
the little fellow held the knife above
the frosting that glittered and
glistened like snowbank in cold
December. Then, oh so carefully,
