Dear friends and Obion Countians:
In our enthusiasm over road build
ing and other important enterprises,
let us not forget that our county is
entitled to another fund. And this
fund is available without a bond is
sue. We refer to tbe appropriation
made by the last Legislature (per
haps the best and most far-reaching
piece of work that body did) for his
torical work.
Out of our pro rata of this fund
every important historical place in
our county should be marked. Now
who will be first to suggest one or
- more places? '
Any one having suggestions to
make let me hear from you through
the press. Very respectfully,
MRS. W. J. CALDWELL.

Fathers, Mothers, and Uncles, All Too
Fond of Trifling With the Chil
dren's Playthings.
Fathers and uncles have 'always
made it a practice to play with little
Willie's mechanical toys at Christmas
time until they were broken, frequently
permitting Willie to look on merely,
while a group of adults manipulated
the toys all Christmas day.
But what happened to little Willie
was as nothing to the wrongs prac
ticed by mothers who have purchased
walking dolls for their little girls.
A little girl whose family had been !
making entirely unsuccessful efforts j
to conceal the ante-Yuletlde presence
in the home of a walking doll came j
out with the whole history of the case j
one evening. j
"Are you going to show her the j
walking doll?" she asked wistfully, j
Indicating a dinner guest as the "her"
In question.
Father and mother looked at each
other aghast. Theoretically the little
girl was not supposed to know there
was a walking doll In the house until
Santa Claus Introduced them. Tact
fully they ignored the question.
"Bedtime, dear," ; suggested mother
sweetly.
But the little girl had reached the
end of her endurance. Desperately she
turned to the guest:
"They play with it every night after
I go to bed," she walled.

Work, for the night is coming,
Work through the morning hours;
Work while the dew is sparkling,
Work 'mid springing flowers. v
Work, when the day grows brighter,
Work in the glowing sun;
Work, for the night is coming.
When man's work is done.

Rest comes sure and soon.

Something to keep in store;

Lloyd George's Jokes on Himself.
What has saved Lloyd George is his
sense of humor. He knows how to
laugh at himself. Ills favorite story
now a chestnut was of the man who
saved a drowning person in the
Thames and explained, "Yes I
Jumped in after him got him by the
neck turned him over and found he
wasn't Lloyd George and then I
pulled him out." Ills next favorite is
of the old Welsh farmer who walked
many miles in Criccieth, where Lloyd
George lives. "I'm going to have a'
look at David," said this admirer.
"David's now a great man." "Why
yes, he gets 5,000 a year!" answered
his friend. The farmer looked
thoughtfully and replied "it's not the
5,000 a year that matters. Our Da
vid lives near the pile." P. W. Wilson
in World's Work.
"While You Wait"
"Repairs while you wait" may be
explained in more ways than one, ac
cording to a Jeffersonvllle business
man, who had discovered a meaning
he had not thought of at first. He
took a pair of shoes to a shop that
advertised "something different in re
pairing," and promised the job "while
you wait." The business man said he
did not wish to wait but would call
later. It was not until the third visit
that he got the shoes. He was in
clined to become sarcastic but checked
himself, looked thoughtfully at the
sign and remarked to himself, as the
light broke: "Well, I waited." In

Matinee Music Club
On Saturday, Jan. 21, the Matinee
Music Club held its regular meeting
with Mrs. Cunningham on S. Third
street. The leader's discourse on "Mu
sic of the Bible" was unusually In
tel esting.
Since the beginning of time, when
savages knocked pieces of wood to
gether and found pleasure in the
sound, they've not only been seeking
harmony and rythm but giving vent
to their religious feelings.
Isaiah and Jeremiah uttered their
prophecies in song, and we may im
agine, the style of dividing choruses,
developed in Egypt just after the
passage of the Red Sea, when the
women, with timbrels and dances, re
sponded to Moses and the children of
Israel. The reign of David forms
idyllic episode in the history of Is
rael, for at this period a conception
of music begins to appear but not
until the sixteenth century did mu
sic appear as a real art. 'Twas then
there came into being the "Society of
Oratorians" of Rome. Cavaliere, see
ing the miracle plays would be more
inspiring if set to music, presented
the first oratorio, "Life After Death."
However, the mention of oratorV
