V ho Is there for whom a romance
does not have its appeal? This lit
tle story ot the love of two simple
voting ;eopIe of the Kentucky moun
tains, brought lo light through the
finding o.' oil on their lands, Is beau
tiful an1 till! of septiment:
D ep in the mountains of Ken-
iucK), iar ueniiiu ine ume iiiass re
gion, where mountain paths lose
themselves among the crnigs, there
lived a little mountain girl. Her
neighbor and playmate, a mountain
boy, lived two miles away. Both liv
ed in tiny cabins hidden away beyond
the trails.
T.nnir hlnata nil the ennph horn
were the love signals echoing through
the misty valleys as they grew older.
Neither had ever ventured beyond the
blue ridge that
hid them from the
outside world and the whistle of he
locomotive never penetrated the
woodland.
They wished for nothing more
than they had; for there was no temp
tation. Their dream was but of a
similar mountain home on" the high
est ridge, where the sun rose first in
the East and sank last in the West,
long after the valley had been cur
tained In shadows.
Then came the outside world and
broke the stillness ot the mountain
with bias's as wells were drilled.
Harry Tipton, the mountain boy, and
Emma Abner, the mountain girl,
whose nearest address was Union
Hall. Kentucky, watched the drillers
In the work, and even, when oil was
struck on their little land holdings
the dream of wealth did not come to
them.
It was not until the land was filled
with many wells and money flowed
from the ground that the two moun
tain children realized they could ven
ture away from their home. Love,
who stops even on mountain trails,
made a suggestion. New clothes were
purchased from a town, and with an
other mountain girl, Sarah Gerton.
of Union Hall, the young lovers made
their way over the paths and roads
to a railroad. The locomotive was
the first they had ever seen and their
ride to Cincinnati was Oiled with
wondrous things.
The other night they entered the
Grand Hotel, where the clerk regis
tered for them. There waa told the
old story of love and the new story
of wealth that oozed from the ground.
The next day married, and, efter
passing their honeymoon In Cinci
nnati, will return to their ho:r.e in
the mountains.

studei.t of Cornell University and a
ton of a wealthy oil producer.
Monroe is not a college town, but
this adice Is applicable here, for it
is good and sound in principle, es
pecially in this, the day of the Shim
mee, Tickie-Toe. night automobile
rides, and other things equally un
conventional. Clad in mourning and holding a
photograph of her daughter, Mrs.
Crance said:
"The average college boy is good
at heart and desires to be a gentle
man, but the romantic spell of a lake,
a wildwood and a dance is too apt
to rouse the lire of youth until it be
comes a conflagration.
'Every small-town girl dreams
vividly of the knight who is to carry
her away, nnd if that knight be clad
in neat tweeds or has a motor car, a
moth- r must strive to inculcate in
her daughter the doctrine that monej,
dress and a smooth tongue do not
constitute the real American.
"Up :o the time she met Fether,
Hazel never succumbed lo tne many
lemptatitias which confront girls who
are throw n in lite company of flash
ily dress -d collegians who enjoy Urge
allowances from their homes.
"I would warn all mothers that
?very girl who is born ami reared in
:i relalivtiy small community where
there are scores of smooth faced,
youth. til and pampered collegians, is
bound to pas through Ihe ordeal.
Girls are prone lo believe soft words
of flattery. They cannol find room to
doubt.
1 have lived in this college town
too' long to be blind to the dangers.
Uniformly the students are clean-cut
and come from good families. Many
of them are sons of weathly parents,
as in the case of Fether.
"There have been widespread re
ports that Hazel was not our (laugh
ter, but that we adopted her. That is
untrue. We are her parents and her
loss is irreparable.
'During the war many mothers
were face to face with the problem
of guarding their daughters In Ihe
vlciitilty ot camps aud cantonments.
It was the lure of the uniform as
well as the romance of youth
thoughtlessness on both sides. Moth
ers In college towns have been ex
periencing the same trouble ever
since educational institutions were
established In romantic spots.
"The blame that is attached to
city girls wearing suggestive attire
hardly can he applied In college town
communities, so far as the town girls
are concerned.
"It is not necessary to spy on them
or to be obtrusive, but a mother must
be on guard constantly with the prop
er advice and the ability lo persuade
a daughter against believing spoiled
.voting men,
Word reached the District Attor
ney's office late Monday that towns
folk and students had intimated that
if Fether were freed he would be
tarred and feathered. Sheriff Green
announced that an attack on the
county jail would be fruitless.
Did the American soldiers frater
nize with the German people? A re
cent, dispatch says that almost before
the peace treaty was signed 140
husky American doughboys were
married to German girls despite the
',ery ri8'd against fraternizing
with the enemy. The following day
22 of the brides were on their way to
Brest via Paris, chaperoned by a
lieutenant and two ot the 140 hus
bands. Now after participating In a
strike among the French waitresses
at a Y. M. C. A. house in Paris and
causing more or less of a tumult in
Brest they are en route to America.
Here is a brief account of the Paris
strike:
Arrived at the hostess house the
brides were taken into breakfast.
Suddenly one of the maids haard the
enemy tongue. She gent the news
around. The maids strurk. They
would not serve one of the enemy
though peace had been declared the
day before. Service was suspended
for five minutes whll the brides ate
on placidly. Finally the striks lead
er was suspended and peace restored.
That night they left for Brest.
Henceforth brides from Germany
or Luxembourg will be sent straight
through to the port and will not be
permitted to stop in Paris.
Couldn't Giic-ks That.
"If a pack of Germans suddenly
came right down on top of us. what
would you do?" asked the sergeant.
"Dey ain't gwlne to know whar I
Is," replied the private.
"How'a that, Sam?"
"Well, you see dey might know
whar I wuz, but not whar I is."
He had six wives, a South African
native, and he was asked to justify
them. "Well," he answered, "If you
have one wife she wrangles with you;
if you have two wives, they rn'tie
with each other and you are I f; in
peace."
v ,. . hr.vesix."
"Tr'"v" he answered. "The more
v-iv.is I ha,e the more crops I can
raise."

H"i:ry, like most other boosters,

had a population "of between 8.u0
and 10.000 souls." His figures, how
ever, pleased Mr. W. M. Gordon, pres

Investment Co., who remarked to the
writer: "For years I have been tell

had a population of 8,0im, and I'm

L'ou the mountains with a good cow
story. In the section lit vstteu tl.ry

tbet" an old wot. at.'s cow was shu
up by a pto.iil: nt citizen lo prevent
it making limber inroads into his
err.. lie had no Intention of collect
ing an iuioe lining fee. bnt the wo
mnn. when she heard her cow had
been stabled, tiiotpiil differently.
She imagined the man was guilty of
ail th evil tliiir-s of this world, and
til" mo'-e she pondered the madder
she would get. She h"gan search'ng
for the man who had her row, and
found him In the local general store.
There Mr. Funderburk, with a num
ber of other tourists, were gathered.
In her hand siie carried a bunch cil
wild mountain llowers. The store
keeper had an idea of the nature of
her visit, and assumed the task of
peacemaker. He talked In a soolhing
ira met, but failed to keep ihe eye of
Ihe v pinan from wandering in the
Hrecilon of where the man who had
shut up her cow sat. At last, when
he found nothing else would change
the dr.lt of her thoughts, which were
declded'y Inimical lo the party she
wau seeking lo wreak vengeance up
on, he asked her what she purposed
d.iit g with the boquet of flowers. His
question was like a flame applied to
dynamite. The woman assumed an
antagonistic manner, clenched her
fists, and. pointing to the man who
had dared meddle with the privilegt-s
of her cow, simply roared:
"I'm going to put them on that
i! n rascal's grave!"
Then followed, according to Mr.
Funderburk. the most unwomanly
conduct on the part of a woman he
had ever witnessed. She let forth a
string of oittlis that would have done
credit lo o sailor. For several min
utes she stormed and rased, but did
noi nsort to blows. The man took it
all good-naturedly, as becoming a
gentleman.
Thts ivoinan, said Mr. Funderburk
must not be taken for a typical ex
ample of mountain folk. On an av
