I About Chasing "Chickens."
"Times have certainly changed,
and the boys have changed with
them' remarked an old-time Paris
business man to THE NEWS man a
few. days ago. "Twenty years ago a
boy was willing to spend a year,
scfaietime.3 .perhaps three years, learn
ii. k a trade. Do you see them doing
V nt now? Not much, sir. A lad
stnkea you to-day for a job, and if
yon suggest that he work a week or
a month for fair wages, he will give
you the laugh. He must have work
man's wages from the very first time
Ke takes "off his hat or cap when he
comes to your place. Half the time
he doesn't even do that, but he loafs
around,, the store or if you should
happen to want him very particu
larly' you would as likely aa not find
hfm. in one of the Main street pool
rooms with a cigarette in his face
aadL spending his tne there. He
might get a $1.50 a day . washing
your windows or carrying the ashes
from- your cellar so what is the use
of wasting time in learning a trade?"
There is hardly a business in Paris,
Ky to-day that isn't yearning for
one pf those old-fashioned boys who
will' treat his elders with politeness
and take an interest in the work be
yond waiting for the clock to mark
the quitting time. It's Saturday af
ternoon off and double' pay for every
minute overtime. He doesn't want
to learn the business. He merely
wants a convenient vehicle for "get
ting by," as he expresses it. He has
hq mbition to own the business for
hjtoself some day. He makes fun of
dull old Paris and hikes to some
other larger place at every opportu
nltyfc He can't see the dear little
girl next door -who helps her mother,
bst he.-nishes to-Iiexington, Louis
ville or some- -other large city to
chase a ''skirt."-
The best girls on this old earth
are- right here about hfrn; girls that
are growing up to make true and noble-women;
but he chases the "chick
ess" of the city streets. "There is
nothing to keep me here," he wails,
so the poor little boob wastes his
time, his- money, and his strength
trying to be a -"regular sport," a tin
horn rounder, a "regular twelve
o'clock feller"- in Lexington. .
To greet your neighbors with a
clear eye. and to owe no man any
thing; to' build a homo for the girl
you. went to school with, and to sit
with your feet under your own ta
ble, occasionally adding a new leaf
for the new member of the family
who sits in a high chair and puts
bread and milk Into his nose and
eyes, is something worth while.
-Stick to Paris and to mother and
to the girls who smile at you on
ib streets of Paris, and let the Lex
ington "skirts" "find consolation in
their own circles. There's nothing
is. chasing the "chickens" except the
trouble and there is very little good
tim in having trouble at any time.
Call it off, boys, and make your best
bws P ,the good little girls of the
"beet little old town on earth. Paris,
Kentucky.
Americanization.
-The Department of Education at
lushimgton is .pressing its work
throughput tne country to American
iwe foreign born. The effort is per
siaUat to break up those communi
' ties that conduct their affairs in for
eign tongues. The war put 483 Ger-
.man newspers out of business and
t&sse papers reached three million
yi.'-r ? aWCriDer5 . aay. vxoniufc nrvo cue

Tpefuatiag the custom of the parent
aiou But in our antipathy and
41lrust of Germany we should not
arlook the fact thit ten million
papers in foreign languages are cir
culated in America every week.
There were approximately 33,
000,000 people in this country in
1910 who were either born abroad or
under foreign home conditions and
neighborhood environment. In all
there are thirty-eight different lon
guage groups in the United States.
, The war has brought the acid test to
(millions of these people, and most of
, them have proved loyal. But the
1 troubles with the disloyal ones make
it very plain that the bonds should
,be drawn very tight, and American
: ization must become an accomplished
fact rather than an ideal.

WANT DREADNATOHT NAMED
FOE STATE OF KENTUCKY.
The Louisville Merchants' and
Manufacturers' Association has ad
dressed a letter to the Kentucky del
egation in Congress calling upon
them to support a plan for making
the name of Kentucky more promi
nent in the navy by means of naning
one of the proposed new dread
naughts after the State of Kentucky.
The letter in part follows:
"The old battleship 'Kentucky,'
once the pride of the navy, is now so
inconspicious that her name was
hardly ever mentioned during the
war, although, we believe, she was in
the Mediterranean during some part
of it, and probably within the large
new battleships that it is dismantled
and sold for scrap.
"In the new naval program one of
the large new battleships that it is
proposed shall be built should bear
the napne 'Kentucky.'
"A State which has for so long
held a foremost place in the Union
for its loyalty and patriotism, and
which has devoted itself so consist
ently to the winning of the war, and
which has sent so many of its sons
Into the navy during the past two
years, should, we think, receive bet
ter recognition, and we, therefore,
ask that you join and use your influ
ence with other members of the Ken
tucky delegation in the Senate and
House of Representatives to secure
this favor from the government."

POSTOFFICE DEPARTMENT RE
ADJUSTS LOCAL CARRIER
ROUTES.
Postmaster J. Walter Payne has
announced a readjustment of the city
delivery service, which will give to
all sections of the city, with the ex
ception of Ruckerville and Claysville,
colored suburbs; two deliveries each
day, instead of one as heretofore.
This arrangement has been under
consideration for several weeks by
the Postoffice Department at Wash
ington, and the local office.
In order to make possible the
double service four new receiving
points for mail have been established
which will be supplied by rural car
riers as they leave the city. City
Carrier Route No. 1 will be served by
Thos. Whaley, rural carrier on route
No. 5, who will leave the mail at
Third and Main streets. City Route
No. 3 will be supplied by Allie Row
land, carrier on rural route No. 6,
who will deposit mail at the corner
of Second and Chaplin street, City
Route No. 2 has been granted a
street car allowance, the carrier cov
ering the southern section of tne
city. City Route No. 4 will be sup
plied by Ollie Hedges, carrier on
rural route No. 8, who will deposit
mail at the corner of Fourteenth and
Main streets.
Postmaster Payne urges all resi
dents of the city who receive their
mail by the city carriers to put up
mail boxes and to have their houses
numbered in accordance with the
provisions of the ordinance passed
some years ago by the City Council
and to confonm with the require
ments of the Postoffice Department.
If not, their mail will be left in. the
general delivery at the local office
and will have to becalled for there,
as there is no alternative under the
rules and regulations of the Depart
ment. Mail deposited on Main
street from the Windsor Hotel to
Eighth street will be gathered up
by the carriers four times each day,
6:30 a. fri., 9:00 .a, m., 1:00 p. m.
and 7:00 p. m.

DON'T DELAY.
Some Paris People Have Learned
That Neglect is Dangerous.
The slightest symptom of kidney
trouble is far too serious to be over
looked. It's the small, neglected
troubles that so often lead to serious
kidney aliments. That pain in the
"small" of your back; that urinary
irregularity; those headaches and
dizzy spells; that weak, weary worn
out feeling, may be nature's warning
of kidney weakness. Why risk your
life by neglecting these symptoms?
Reach the cause of the trouble while
there is time begin treating your
kidneys at once with a tried and
proven kidney remedy. No need to
experiment Doan's Kidney Pills
have been successfully used In thous
ands of cases of kidney trouble for
over 50 years. Doan's Kidney Pills
are used and recommended through
out the cizilized world. Endorsed at
home. Read Paris testimony.
Mrs. A. L. Burley, 329 Eighth St.,
says: "I have used Doan's Kidney
Pills, getting them from the Ardery
Drug Co., and from the benefit I re
ceived, I certainly think they are a
good, reliable remedy. Whenever
my kidneys have acted irregularly
or my back has been weak and lame,
I have used a box or so of Doan's
Kidney Pills. They have always re
lieved me of the complaint."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy get
Doan's Kidney Pills the same that
Mrs. Burley had. Poster-Milburn
