The purpose of . this law is to furnish material for a great army for natiqnal defense. It would be better for Germany and well for every country including ft U. S.. if there were a law re- m quiring each citizen; male and fe male to spend at least three years, between the ages of 12 and 21 years in manual farm labor. That all men are equal m crea tion is a self evident truth and a law of this kind would go a long ways in keeping them equal. If the dudes and degenerates, A. iQ victims of alcohol and opiates, - the weak ana nervous, tnose wno cannot eat and those who cannot sleeps could all m early youth have x i:-rri in thp onuntrv. and wnrkpH on the farm, could have experienced the joy of fatigue from daily labor, fn the open air, and sunshine, the satisfaction of work accomplished; the invigaration of natural sleep, coming in contact with mother earth, drawing closer to God by liv ing closer to Nature; the world . would be spared much of the disease the vice, trie crime and misery, it now endures. . A general mix up of this kind would be the greatest earthly blessing imagineable, and the great est education on the face of the earth. It would be an education by contact. It would place the millionaire by the side ot the poor est citizen in the corniield. It would rasp down the aristocratic aspirations ol the upper crust, and Stimulate the amoitions of the low- pt p.rnst. .. There are millions of people in the United States, who never did a days work on the larm. The writer would like very much to hoe corn with Mr. Rockeleller, -ditch and hunt with Mr.! Roosevelt, stack hay with Mr. Tait, pull fodder with4 Mr. Wiis011 and split rails with the great labor leader. Eugene - V.

Wike and family visited. and produce. X. Y. Z. MOSESJMK I heartily agree with the corres pondent from Balsam Grove regard ing the cotton mill proposition, and I think it would be well for several of our mountain people to visit and see the condition of the mills for themselves instead of , taking so much "for granted" as is usually the case. Some of our citizens, that do not realize how well they are living, will, as soon as they have any chil dren old enough to put into the mills leave their little homes among our lovely mountains, and go in quest of the 'Golden Fleece", out in most cases the father will don a high col lar and sit in the corner, while his children with rosy-cheeks that the healthful mountain breeze have given them, are sent to kill the dra gon and acquire the coveted prize. The children's minds are impair ed on account of the confinement; their morals lowered by association with all classes, and they are rob bed of opportunities that they ought to have when they are at that age. If they do get a little money ahead not one in ten will ever spend it in attending school, and if he does the cotton mill has eft scars on his manhood that years of reform fail to wear away. .1 J r 1 il tl . l uur oiu inena, me grip , seems abroad in our community. .

When you are weak ana debilitated there is : trouble in regaining yonr vitality because all of the organs of the Jxxly are debilitated.

The Webster High School is pro gressing nicely and it seems that the rain and mud do not stop the students from school. The Sunday school at the Baptist church is still on her feet and has very good attendance considering the bad weather; but when 'one has an opportunity to hear Mr. Cowan each the lesson and does not . avail him or herself of the opportunity certainly miss something they ought to hear.
