ILLITERACY.
L 4
n
Ignoraa'o is truly to bo loprecatcl.
Too niufli prnUo nnd encouragement
tan not bo given to tho'io who arc
Making h concerted offort to dispel tho
Oloud of Illiteracy and bring joy and
Minshiiip to so many. Illiteracy is tho
bane nt 'li0 ucfulurs of tho world,
f tho mind is cultivated, instructed
oven in tho rudiments (reading, writ
ing anil dimple arithmetic) of an edu
cation, -he foundation is laid for n
"highqr'iidacfilion. With all tho present
avenues to acquire information and
knowledge it is unpardonable in any
1me; with the corner stone laid, that
they do not build well. Some of the
brizhtost h iiid and intellects have
started life with a meager education.
But with laudable ambition, honesty,
.sobriety and industry, hao risen to
positions of honor, trust and respond
'bility, doing honor to the God that
created them with a mind. They have
boon IoiuIts of men and powor for
good. There noor lias been In any nge
such a demand "for men and women
, who know something not necessarilv
:i college cuucntion, but tlio-e who know
their simple lessons well stud were de
term in oil to loam more. The absence
of illfternoj olevates mankind. It puts
fjio on a higher pliuio of usefulness.
In any business, socially, politically or
religiously. To those who have beei.
specialty faorod, let tliem realize the
i03ponibility of their blessings. Not
-njy as they hnve opportunity to do
fu good but let them seek opportunity.

MORE KILLINGS IN JACKSON.
London, November 23. Desperate
fighting iii Russian Poland,' but with
out details as to the outcomo, nnd n re
sumption of similar activity in West
Danders, ar the outstanding features
today in tho areas of military opera
tiou.
Tho flarry caused by tho attack of
British aviators on tho Zeppolin head
quarters "it Priedrichshafen has not yot
subsided, and tho amount of comment
on this incident appearing in both the
German and tho English press scorns to
bo out of all proportion to tho real
damago inflicted.
From Germany thor6 eonie reports
of fovorish activity in tho construc
tion of w.uships, as woll as in tho man
ufacture of Zeppolin airships.
Tho opinion prevails thnt Germany
is not ablo to compete with Great Brit
ain in the construction of battleships.
Consequently sho is devoting greater
energy to tho building of an air fleet.
Naval constiuctiou takes relatively sec
ond place.
Both jides continue to be silent con
cerning tho progress of the great bat
tie in Poland, but Berlin is confident
that Gen. Von llindenbtirg will justify
his reputation as tho most successful
of the Go-man generals.
