3REAI"' TRUTH SIMPLY TOLD
Warning Here to Those Who Neglect
to Set Down Their Priceless
Discoveries. ,
A noted author In the Satevpost
writes: The commonest sign of. fa
tigue is found lri feeling of weari
ness." y x , .
There are times when we are almost
led Into believing that this is true!
Equivocal, and ambiguous as the state
ment may seem, at the first reading,
it becomes clearer when read over
four or five times. In fact, we don't
know when the proposition has been
stated with more clarity, after one
masters the language in which it is
couched.
Have you not often read things and
said to yourself: "How often I have
thought that very thing.. Why did I
not put it down in Imperishable
words?"
It Is so with this. Doubtless, in
your humble way you have often
thought that your weariness was a
sign of fatigue At those times you
thought a living truth, but did you
write and tell some magazine of your
priceless discovery? No. You al
lowed somebody to come along, per
haps years after, and do it
, The moral is that when you think a
great thought, put it down on paper
at once. Even if you do put it away
somewhere and forget it, posterity
may find it. '
Now, many times in our career we
have hadvfeelings of weariness. Some
of our friends have been misguided
enough to attribute It to laziness an
word, particularly among
OXFORD PUBLIC LEDGER. FRIDAY. .Ttmv Q iQ9ri
friends. But, when we were weary, it
was not laziness that ailed us. It
was fatigue. ' . .
And we never knew the truth until
we read the magazine article men
tioned. We have been slandered for
years by a wrong idea. Exchange.

The government of the United States
in 1835 made an offer of $1,000 for the

The engraver's daughter, Sarah,

The Story Of America In, The War
'Told In- Pictures On Walls Of Na

The stcry of the American Expe-
ditionary Force is told in pictures on
the wails cf the National Museum in
Washington' in a permanent exhibit
just opened to the public, says a
Washington dispatch. Continuing
the dispatch says; 1
"Drawn from life in paint, pen and
ink or pencil (by American artists
commissioned and sent tothe from
for that purpose, the collection of al
most 500 studies detailing nearly
every phase of life in the army over
seas is spread over the walls of half
a dozen great, well-lighted rooms.
It is a tale of stirring action which
they disclose. ' ,
"Among the scenes depicted are
ruined French villages made sacred
to Americans because of American
blood freely given to tear them from
German hands. There are the home
ly, appealing scenes from behind the
lines with happy-go-lucky youngsters
of Perishing's division in billets mix
ing among the pepple of France, the
very old and the Very young' people.
Here and there vare grim reminders
of the great tragedy in groups of
huddled dead in wrecked enemy
trenches over which the tide of vic
tory had poured. Again, half glimp
sed through a down pour of rain, a
trudging, sodden infantry column is
moving onward through a sea of
mud as the artist saw it; or an end
less line of gun teams dragging for
ward the batteries to blast the road
to triumph.
"At one point the artist causht
"and held for his countrymen the!
breathless tensity of a forest out- j
post, peering thru the leafy screen'
of his covert toward the enemy lines,
his rifle hugged close with his fin
gers clinched about the trigger; at
another a slash of light from a half
opened door has painted on the
screen of night just axhint of a col
umn; tramping on toward battle,
just a young face or two in the line,
weary, dirty but with jaws grim set
with purpose. Again it is a hospi
tal that has gripped the artist's im
agination, a twisted wTritJiing form
under the tumbled blanket with ag
ony in every line ' and over it the
steadyeyed surgeon or the merciful
figure of an army nurse.
"In rooms around the picture dis
play are shown all the countless
things with which the army and the
navy dealt in war; the guns, the
bombs, the uniforms of ally and en
emy alike, captured weapon and
German war gear of .many kinds.
These form a striking setting for the
epic tale of war artists have pictured,'
probaoly the only such record ever
assembled for it began with the army

How England Grows,
great deal of interest is tnfcen
In England. in the question of coast
protection. The ocean, assailing the
cliffs, gradually tears them away, but
this very process furnishes a defense
for the land by building up long
beaches of sand and shingle which ar
rest'the waves before they can attack
the cliffs. An" effort is making "to pre
vent, or better rejru' ate, the removal of
this material for construction and rr-nd
building, because in many plnc'es its
removal has permitted the sen free
ly to exert Its power of erosion.
The ordnance survey has jiseertnined
that in the l.Tst half century England
has lost 6.640 acres by sea erosion
and gained 48.000 acres through re
claiming land the existence of which
is mainly due to material brought
down by the rivers.
