I _ * * * * Germany is slowly but surely losing out in the European war. * A * ? It is well to beware of extremes in anything. * * * * Uitcn pure gold is found wiicie nothing but dross was expected. # # * * Many a man lias boon laughed at | as a fool and later he startled th I world with a great discovery. * * ?. * V Some have unlimited ability for j meanness and this is only exceeded j by their ability to keep it hid. if. 7 >,? ?f An honest man must be hard to find or a wise man would not have said that an honest man was the noblest work of God. ?*. * * * ( Any man is willing to sit in judg j ment on the conduct of others, hut a* to his own case he prefers to reserve his decision. * * * Why act from impulse only? Why j not use the good common sense that j nature has given you and study just what may ho the result of your action, and then refrain if it is best to do so. # * * * It has been said that some play is necessary in the life of every man and woman if they would get the most out of life and live longer. True it is that all work and no play makes a dull boy. * * * * There was nothing except a bloody war such as is now goir.g da that could ever settle the state of af- ] fairs existing across the water. I'rka is really responsible for it all. * * * * There is such a thing as being a >T? little too good, for instance the man or woman who is so religious that they do not believe a person should ever haVe a good laugh, no matter how funny the .subject of mirth. ? * * It is hard to pick out a man in an\ community who is not doing something that is not best for that community in the minds of some of his neighbors. This is a strange old world in more ways than one. ? ? Some people knock an institution from actual jealousy. Would you believe it? It is true that men and women are often jealous in this world of other things besides other men and wo men. * * * ? The fertilizer companies are compelled to take better security this year that ever for fertilizers sold through their agents, generally the local merchants. The local merchants will in turn have to require better security from the farmers to whom they sell this Spring. It is a condition of affairs which we regret. TffUBB?an ? i The lose of life in the European war is immense ami still poos on at an undiminished rate. It is necessary wo suppose in the nature ol* things ami useless to mope over it. Just as well accept things as they are and make the best of it. V * * * See anything start in a community ami you will find some people who will praise it and others who will condemn it. It is useless to wonder, because this experience is as old at the world. You cannot do anything nor run anything so as to suit everybody, not even a little country paper . * * * * it is the desire to make this paper entertaining and that is one reason why we publish serial stories by the best authors. The cost to us is nothing very small, but we are willing to incur the extra expense in order to make the paper interesting. The next story to be run is a long one and one which will hold your interest to the end. The "Million Dollar Mystery" will begin in a few weeks. * * * * The best all round man or woman in this world is the one that, is not toe good, neither too bad, not too glad, neither too sad, possessed of a moderate amount of health and strength, never too bold or forward, yet not too H i ^*'1 lmtii.i... .... .. u: I : a* iiuv111?,u ai/uiuiK iunn in the bible ami its religion, but not an extremist on religious subjects, eeo-1 nomical but not too stingy in the sup-1 port of public movements, and a strict lover of the home. What should be avoided js the extreme, * * * * The lyccum course is one of the best things ever invented for the purpose of furnishing entertainment to both old and young. For several years Conway has had a lyceum course running through the Fall and Winter months, possibly into the Spring, furn ishing each season from four to six attractions. So far the course has been supported by the best people of the town. There is somewhat of aj hardship imposed upon the gentlemen who undertake) free of charge each year, to ttUihage the local business of the lyceUm ami they have to have en couragement, in order to get them to stick to it. So that we want to say that each member who held season tickets before, and even those who will not buy a season ticket, but want to atend one or more of the attractions as they please and pay tho regular price for each time they go, it is time to get together and encourage the management of the lyceum course and thus make it sure that these entertainments will be kept up for another season and on and on, ever grow ing better and of more service and pleasure to the people of the town. When the movement for another season starts up therefore, try to see that your full duty is done towards making up the required number of subscribers to raise the funds to keep it going. Without the cooperation of th?' people* for whom tlie.se entertainments are intended, the managers who do a lot of work for no compensation at all, will sooner or later want to balk at it and the* lyceum course may be dropped for that cause. We need the lyceum course kept strictly up to the minute in order to help in kecpinp Conway from being a very dull place * * 4c 41 THE HE VETI1 OF OCR SIMMER RESORTS. Many of our summer resorts hav< acted on the policy that a good clim ate, charm of location and beauty o scenery arc sufficient inducements t< attract the summer visitor; but nowa days people are more wary and wise ly look for more than this before se lecting a vacation playground. Th visitor wants a clean bill of healt from the resort he has chosen, and i entitled to have one. Vacation typhoi is becoming known as a serious ha? ard. The prudent recreation seeke now finds out in advance whether o . . i ii r. j ? i ..I il i noi in is lniccuon prevails ai me piac lie has in mind, and furthermore li learns what sanitary measures are b in# taken there to safeguard th > health of the summer colony. Th I town of York, Maine, has, recentl taken steps that at once places it ' the forefront of progress as far v health is concerned. The way tb i problem was met may well serve v a model for other summer resor; Last >car there were a number < cases of typhoid fever at York. K attempt was made to conceal th fact of the existence of the discus and its extent. The authorities ver properly felt that the way to mec any danger was to faro it in the t p til. An expert was invited to come t work and make a sanitary survey. The chief recommendation of the ex pert was that York needed a full tim health ofiicor. The town appropriate* v2,500 a year for this purpose and ap pointed Mr. William Must is Brown, ; graduate of the School of Health Of firors of Harvard Technology, to th ecvviy created position. The town o York is now spending one dollar pc capita per year for health, a large sum than is appropriated by any oth or American city directly for a like purpose. "Public health is purchas able," the price is moderate, am York shows by its action that it in tends to enjoy the best attainable pr< lection from disease. Other summc colonies will find it to their advantage to follow the example of York, am take the necessary measures to safe guard their citizens and the Strang' crs v.ithin their gates.

Now you may I i % . think that J am just saying this to induce you good people to grow tobac1 co, but doubtless you are aware of -| the fact that 1 am interested in a new tobacco warehouse just being erected j in your midst at your county seat, and I could not afford to make a mis-state 1 meat to the people, for i intend to 1 .... ... > i .i ... - .->>.*1% wmi .von uiui: me last, and ll 1| I did not have confidence in yon and in II your county, why certainly I would never have put my money with you, . and so far as those rumors which have gone out 1 beg you for your good not to pay any attention to them but go to work and make a good crop i of tobacco and I am confident that when the harvest is made no one will have any cause to regret the planting and handling of the same.

As 1 haven't seen anything from the | Adrian correspondent in quite a while will thank you for space for just a few lines. Rev. Phillips filled his regular ap pointment at Poplar last Sunday. The B. Y. P. U. held their regular meeting at Bakers Chapel last Sunday Mrs. Julia Allen of Joy spent thte ! week-end with Mrs. H. H. Watts. The Watts school came to a. close ' last Friday after a successful term of five months taught by :VIr. E. C. Allen. A short program vas carried out Friday night by the primary grades, eon- ' sisting of a few dialogues and a shoyt I debate, the query being: "Resolved . ' that the education of girls is more important that that of boy's'. The. affirmative side was represented by Velma ' Cartrette, Cecil Anderson and Leila Durant. The negative side was dc7 fended by Archie Watts, Julien Cart rett and Archie Dorscy. The affirmative side won. Hon. Hal L. Buck delivered a very interesting talk on Education. On Saturday night the members of the Literary Society entertained quite | a large audience. The play known as j "The Modern Courtship" seemed to : create much amusement. Also a debate was pulled off, the query being: "Resolved that friends 1 count more in time of need than mon1 ey." The affirmative speakers were, i Messrs J or re Allen, Arthur Dorsey ; and Pope Watts. The negative side was held down bv Misses Ada and Annie Dorsey, and Mr. Boyd Ludlum. The negative side won. Prof. Brown was present and made a short but interesting talk. The Watts school society will meet from time to time. We will thank every one who can and will join and help us out in this work. May the time soon come when more time and attention will be given to things that mean so much to the school, home, church and community.
