contains the following regarding a
well-known pioneer citizen of Paris:
"Death, at Paris, aged 76, of
Noah Spears, a native of Bour.bon
county. He developed so early in
manly appearance, that at the age
of thirteen he voted, being suppos
ed to be a man. When a young man
he traded produce to New Orleans,
in flatboats, and walked back."

If Jaunary is not too cold, some
of the New Year resolutions that
will be made may have a chance to
last until February.
If you would garner from life's store
And find your basket full,
A little push will get you more
Than trusting to a pull.
Ddn't say you have nothing to be
be thankful for. How would you
like to wear vknee pants and a pow

Things are happening so rapidly
in the world to-day that we would
not be surprised to hear that some
aviator had skimmed the cream off
the Milky Way.
A man who gave the name "Ben
jamin Franklin" has been arrested
in a raid on an alleged dope ring.
But then you see,, even great men's
names are not protected by copy
right. In the midst of a hard, grinding
day, no matter what your station in
life may be, it is awfully satisfying
and comforting to think suddenly
that some pal somewhere is loving
you.

The worst pest we know of to-day
is the fellow who grabs you by the
collar, and gleefully chirps into your
ear how his old boat gets .twenty
five miles an hour out of 'a gallon
of gasoline.
It was said that Fatty Arbuckle's
Christmas stocking contained the
following: ' When you were bad you
were horrid, but now you're good,
oh, so very good, our welcome's
really torrid. Will S. Hays."
If Henry Ford should use in Ken

he is buying, Kentucky would real

shipping coal out does not increase

When farm labor be.comes or
ganized the agricultural producers
will begin talking about the good
old days when there was no union
scale, and when the San Jose scale
was the only thing a fruit grower
had to contend with.
When the, old year 1922 is ended
and the newvyear 1923 is begun we
shall wish to remember only' such
abiding things as love and faith
and gladness and beauty. Let us
therefore put things into the new
year right at the beginning.
The headline in the daily "papers,
"264 Republicans Released From
Prison," caused irritation and alarm
among many Kentucky Democrats
until they looked again and saw
that it occurred in Dublin, Ireland,
and that Governor Morrow had no
hand in it.

If it were no,t for the gossips the
country newspapers would have a
better chance to spread abroad the
happening of the hour, the day or
the week. What kind of a chance
has the newspaper to get "an ex
clusive" when the gossips get hold.
of a choice piece of news?
A very ordinary Paris man made
the following .very wise observa
tion to me the other day: "I have
lived nearly sixty years now, and I
have made up my mind that in
the thousands of times I got mad at
somebody else I did not change the
other fellow's belief one iota, nor
enlarge my own faith a bit."
A pretty Paris girl came storming
out of a certain shoe store the otiher
day. Curiosity got the better of me,
and I asked the grinning clerk who
stood at the counter;-" What's the
matter?" The clerk replied: "Well,
old man, I've got revenge at last.
That was a telephone girl, and when
she got her shoes I got my revenge,
for I gave her the wrong number,
just like she's handed me many
times."
The children . were gathered
around a towering Christmas tree in
Paris, the other night, aglow with
happiness, the tree aglow with tin
sel, lights and ornaments, and old
Santa Claus was just distributing
presents. One of the assistants was
attracted by the countenance of a
street urchin, none too warmly
clad, and not being able to place
him as one of those expected to be
present, she sought to draw him
out, so asked him: "Are you glad
you came, little fellow?" To which
the youngster replied vociferously:
"Hell, yes! Whatcher think. I'm
here fer." He got all he wanted in
