A Glimpse of Men.
Once in a while someone with 1
knowledge of the situation and 1
an insight into the other fellow's
job, gets a proper glimpse of t
the newspaper men. Elbert H 1
Gary, chairman of the board ol 1
directors of the United States a
Meel corporation, is a oig man r
who realizes the value of proper c
relationship between men of his t
position and newspaper repre- v
sentutives. At a banquet given "5
in his honor by the Birmingham, r
Alabama, Newspaper Club, Gary v
said:
"I have been obliged to co m ..
in contact with the newspupei J
lr iternily for the last fifteen
years and from my experience 1
can say that if business men
treat newspaper men right, they
are always truthful and faithful.
My experience has been that it
you will treat the newspnpei
man lairly?w ill be frank and
honest and give him the truth
and the oppoi tunity . o publish
the Hum ne v. illuo 11 honestly.

Warnings for the Home.
Every year in Ami iica manx
children are burned to death by
fire from Christmas candles.
Do not decorate your (Jmistinas
tree with paper, cotton, or
any other inflammable material.
Use metallic tinsel and other noninflammable
decorations only,
and set the tree securely, so ihat J
the children in reaching for \.
things cannot lip it over.
Do not use coi on to re.iivsr t
snow. If you muv have si ow, ,
use asbestos fiber.
Do not per.nit children to light
or relight the randies while;
parents are not present. They j
frequently set fire to their clothing
instead. The tree itself will 1
burn when needles have become
dry. i
Do not leave matches within!
reach of children at holiday time. ,
Candles are meant to he li.-hted.
and if the children can get j
matches they will experiment i
with them. They imitate their !
elders. - Exchange.
