The idea of making the Delsarte system, commonly known as physical culture, tie vehicle of presenting and explaining the great problems of existence to children is a beautiful one; and if in the presentation, a deeper mean ing is not discovered, for the adult as well as for the child, either the poet has failed in his work, or the adult mind has become dulled to the beauties of life. To illustrate how well such lessons have been learned by the Kindergarten class of Mrs. H. D. Abernethy, they will present a little play in the Academy of Music on the evening of May 10, to which admittance is free. The child ren, dressed as fairies, butter flies, etc., will impersonate the budding life, joy and beauty of the spring. Her Seventy-first Birth-day. The home of Mrs. J. R. Weaver, near Hickory, was filled to overflowing last Sunday, April 20th., when her mother, Mrs. Jane Abernethy was pleasantly surprised by a visit from her rel atives which represented three generations. In spite of the rain, all were present except our grand children. The event was a celebration of Mrs. Abernethy's seventy-first birth-day and each one did his best to make the day one which she will always she will always remember with pleasure. Probably the most enjoyable part of the day was the dinner hour. And what a dinner! The rain prevented it being served "al fresco", so two rcoms were ihrown open to the guests and :he tables fairly under the weight of almost every conceiva ble concoction. One noticeable feature was twenty-one cakes and everything else was rela tively plentiful. It is needless to say the hour was thoroughly 2njoyed by everyone and made poung folks wish that "Grand mother" would have a birthday oftener than once a year. In the afternoon the guests arere entertained with music and :he little folks enjoyed various and fiolics out of doors A.bout one hundred were present, jvincing the love and esteem ;hey have for "Gradma"—"Her ihildren rise up and call her bles sed." The time for leaving came far XJO soon and v all were reluctant ;o go, but each one present took lome a very pleasant memory of :he day and left with her sincer ist wishes for many more anni /ersaries of her birth, each hap oier than the last. There is great local interest in the Massachusetts primaries * Tuesday. Although the Republicans selected raft as their candidate for renomination by a majority of 3,605 over Roose velt on the presidential preference ballot, at the same time they elected bv a decisive vote the entire slate of eight delegates-at-large, pledged to Roosevelt, who secured ten more dele gates in the district flection while the President carried nine districts, so that Taft and Roosevelt each have eighteen delegates. Clark won 2 to 1 over Wilson but the Democratic delegates at large are to Foss. Underwood car ried Georgia over Wilson by good ma jority. Ik * 1 mail jj gfl '(ft- ?

There are two parts of a job: the paint and the work; the work is more than the paint; and it *ever comes down. The cost of paint is about two fifths; the work three-fifihs. Paint is up $5 an average job, and won't come down in a hurry; too many jobs put-off. Men are waiting fot $2 or they don't kilow it; they think they are waiting for $2O or $25.
