ORIGINAL THIEKINcIs

We hear much of over production of most
everything. There is one thing in which there is
no over production, and that is sof intelligent
thinking are always able to command interest.
Take IT in the field of the preacher, for in
stance. You can find innumerable churches in the
United States where the congregations are scan
ty. That may be due largely to the fact that
the popular mind is absorbed by amusements and
churches IN such churches there is usually in the
pulpit man who has the power of original
thought. It is the same in the field Of statesmen
ship or the lecture platform. sas
The reason why many people lack the power
of thought is that they accept the statements that
them, without any effort to go over these subjects
by their own process of reasoning. They should
ask themselves if these things are true, and if
they accord with the facts of their own experience
That power can mot be acquired all at once
But If people in their youth will form this habit of
considering the statements that are made to them
In a dspassionate way, and reaching conclusions
Of their based on their actual observation and
knowledge, they win gradually gain this power of
originality Their words and ideas viii be listened
TO.
There are many persons who do q good deal
Of thinking, but they do not command respect be-
cause they do rot think straight. Their minds
are governed by prejudices. and they can not see
things in an impartial way The popular common
sense rejects their views. But If i person can
think, and if ones thought shows candor and in
telligence, viii count in whatever,circle or pro-
fession he Is found.

LADY GOVERNOR TALKS

Governor Nellie Taylor Ross Of Wyoming has
Displayed lot of good sound sense since she has
ose6nied the position Of chief executive Of her
statt.. and has not evidenced disposition to un-
daily seek the limelieht.
Therefore, her views on problems of the day,
particularly those concerning women. worthy
Of consideration. In a recent address to an or
ganizAtion Of Girl Scouts Of which she in an hon
ofary member, she said
81 old-fashioned enough to believe that
no career for women is glorious satisfying
a. that which wifehood and motherhood offers, and
Il is there she fulfills her highest destiny"
But Mrs. Ross also defended the modern girl
and declared that modern dress is not only more
sensible, but promotes health and grace. She said
shat the girl Of today is fortunate in living in an
are when practically every restraint is removed
that could repress girls happy spirit or handi-
cap~her progress and she should use her liberty
a. . means Of Development into the finest type of
wosaanhoOd."
II appears that Governor Ross has sanely
ssnsea the situation Of the modern girl. and that
her conclusions and advice are eminently sound.

EvANcELiNE BOOTHS DOC


Dog herosn, dog intelligence, dog loyalty
and deg lovableness are part, and one OF the best
parts. CT human history Here is another instance
related few days ago by the Associated Press:
NEW Notwithstanding to duty after near
" four months of Illness Commander Evangeline
Booth. national leader Of the Salvation Army told
her comrades last night in the army,s headquar-
tiers that her shepherd dog, Maize, had saved her
life one night during her illness by going for help
Miss Booth became seriously i'll shortly before
Christmas. One night in February she awoke. ex-
periencing "a strange sinking sensation and un-
able to move her arms or call for help.
Miss Booth finally awakened the dog sleeping
by her bed and whispered, Get Gidde," the nick
name of her attendant, Major Mary Wells Miss
Booth said that Maize rushed of at once and paw
ed the bedclothes of Miss Wells bed, Miss Booth
heard the attendant tell the dog to keep silent and
soon Maize returned to his mistress bedside Sent
off again, Maize caused such a stir that Miss Wells
investigated. found Miss Booth in . serious con-
dition and administered artificial respiration until
the doctor arrived.
The least we can do to show our respect and
gratitude to these faithful creatures is not to chain
them up in kennes or keep them tied to dog houses
or have them too tightly muxzled They are cours-
ing animals that Is, it is part Of their nature to
run back and forth. Hence to eoniine them unduly
Is to increase their nervousness and infIict upon
them cruelty. perhaps the very worst to which
short of deliberate torture. they could be subiec-
ted. They our friends and let us treat them
as such!

Of a $4,000, 900 inheritance.
The townsfolk were divided in
opinion over the stories related by
several persons as told them several
years ago by the self announced heir
to several millions and brought for
ward in the face of his continued
absence.
Charles f. Little said that Cooper
when he came here in 1912 and en-
tered Litte's employ, asserted he was
the BLACK sheep" OF a New York
family of wealth and prominence
The same story was shortly after
ward told to Rudolph Wolf, he re-
called, excepting that Cooper, who
worked in VOLTS dairy. located his
wealthy relatives in Boston.
Skeptics pointed out that Cooper
had recently located his legacy in
Virginia. West Virginia and Ohio,
and called the whole affair a care
fully planned hoax, pointing to un-
secured loans said to have been given
Cooper for $4,000 as possible motive
Others, however, saw elements of
truth in the several stories and re-
fused TO abandon faith in the erst-
while iron worker, who departed

sented for a. $4,000 deposit in

Unidentified Electric Light Guardian !
Voluntarily Reports Damaged Equipment

The District has an unknown fand
self-appointed electric light inspector
who apparently does nothing else but
search the city for damaged lamp
posts and cracked or broken globes,
1t was revealed today by Warren B.
Hadley, electrical engineer
Every few days the mysterious in
spector sends reports of his investi-
cations to certain District officials,
giving the exact location of lamp
post which some automobile may
have crashed to the ground or one
which is globeless. Strangely
enough, Mr.. Hadley said. the un-
known inspector has never given him
any erroneous information, and has
an uncanny way of finding conditions
to report, regardless of the section
OF the city. All of the reports are
written on postal cards. but never
