They tell us there Isn't anolh er country In all the world so good as ours to spentt one' years In, and we believe it because all those wbd went to other countries were mighty glad to get back here. (We use the word "mighty" because It would be putting it too mildly to say they were very glad.) Just the other day I was reading an instance of what a reipectable bunch of folks we Americans are (especially we southerners, If you please.) This Instance Is the little town of McColl in the county of Marlboro, S. C. It has a population of about 1,000 Including the mill village with the usual protestant churches and a recent survey of the town revealed the fact that (not in cluding the mill village) every man In that town, with two lone excep tions. Is a church member. Every woman in that town without an ex ception Is a church member. Only one boy over IS yean is not a church member and every girl over It is a church member. Now, we all know that the recording angel will not hunt up the church books to find out who Is entitled to place in heaven; but taking that town as a type, even though It ia aomewhat ahead of others in that respect, we nna mat we live in a country where the great majority of folks are at least decent and where we can lie down at night with a feeling of per sonal security and sleep the sleep of the Just and that counts for a great deal because you see a fellow who cannot sleep cannot be happy though he may posses his millions. .

There isn't anybody in all the world like our neighbors, and there Isn't any light In alt the world so good to our eyes aa the light that shines from our neighbor's wlndbwt at night. These and thousands more of good things you and I still have and so let's quit standing on the corners and shortly. The estate, It Is understood. included about $76,000 in cash, a large farm near Concord, valuable city property, and considerable stocks and bonds. Before leaving Mr. Smith ventured the suggestion that he now had a harder job than ever. Neither The Baltimore American tells about a little girl who was astonished and appalled by question the teacher asked her. The question was this: "Can you tell me whether you are an Invertebrate or a mammal?" "Please, miss," she stammered, "I don't think I'm either. I'm a Methodist." Alf Taylor, aged seventy-two Is again canvassing ,the state of Ten nessee with his fiddle for election to the Kovernfhlp on the Re publican ticket. Older people will remember the famous campaign of thirty-four years ago between Alf and his broth er Bob. Bob was a Democrat and Alf then, as now a republican. Both appealed to the voters with their fid dles and although Alf was the best fiddler, there were more Democrats than there were republicans and Bob won. He made a fine record as gov ernor and also as a good citizen un til ten years ago, when he died. Alf has strong and vigorous support; but It is yet a question whether he is to win over his democrat opponent, Al bert H. Roberts, who seems to be making better headway In vote get ting with his Bpeeohes than old nian Taylor is making with his fiddle. But still there Is no tell how the thing will go.
