Tell the Truth.
V v'Vk ^ *
A man who has live4 his life so
' successful that hemow occupies
<>n of great resposibility
said:
have seen many men rise
and fall in the world, but I nev-
seen anybody who seri-
ured his prospects by
the truth. When I was a
oung man I made jup my
^ ||hei was nothing in
this ' ^world that worth a lie,
and l ean safely say that much
of my success is due to this fact.
I have had several employers in
my life, but I never worked for
a manSeithotit winning his con-
fidence. I always told torn tl
truth, and he soon saw that
was to be trusted." It is one
the laws of success. 1
Tributes to Newspaper Styles.
It is something of a coinci-
dence tHat two ministers of the
gospel, though widely separated
by distance, should almost at
the same moment pay marked
tributes to the style of modern
newspaper writing, the one di-
rectly the other indirectly. Rev.
W. H. Jordan of Jersyville, ill.,
while visiting in St. Louis, said
he had often thought that if
ministers would>adopt newspaper
methods in writing their ser-
mons they would mfke more im-
pression upon their congrega-
tions and attract more people to
the services, and also that if
certain events related in the
Bible had been "covered" by the
modern newspaper reporter they
would be xead more eagerly than
in the St. James version. Dr.
G. Campbell Morgan of London
in an address at East North-
field, Mass., declared that the
modern newspaper is one of the
strongest possible forces for
raising a Nation's * ideals, and
added: "Every minister and
Christian workers should study
the Bible before reading his
newspaper, or else he will find
the newspaper so interesting
that his study of the Bible will
be unsuccessful." The direct
way which modern newspaper
writers have of "saying their
say" compels interest. More-
over, he uses modern language,
we miglbt say the vernacular of
the times. The Bible, of course,
is in the language and style of
the period at which it was trans-
latecj. , We. imagine that, were
it possible to translate the book
at this time, unaffected by
knowledge of existing transla-
tions, the result would be in the
vivid style" which Mr. Jordan
commends in the modern news-
peper.—Dallas News.—
Some people seem to delight in
the use of large words. A great
per cent of them nse words which
they do not know the meaning of
or use them in the wrong mean-
ing. Lincoln in his Gettysburg
speech only used two words in
as much as four syllables, ".pro-
position and altogether." The
educated people of today, especi-
ally the Americans use short
words, for convenience and for
clearness. Some words, which
have been dug out of the Anglo-
Saxon with the aid of Latin,,are
intercommunicative nes s
tranaubstantiotionablenes, a n d
proantitransubstantiationistical.
This last word has thirty-two
letters and is doubtless the long-
est word in the language. It is
a term' used in theology and
meanp wild opposition to the doc-
trine of transubstantiation;
The girl that tells mother to
Stay in bed of a morning and she
will call her when breakfast is
ready, is the girl for -you to tie
onto; boys, if you can. You wtll
find this sort o^a girl harder to
lasso, but she is well worth th^
extra time spent in corraling
her A girl who is good to her
mother will be good to her hus-
band.—Tahoka Informer.
And will make the very best
sort of a bubhy out of him—

lor turn nowadays to discover

The True Situation.
Have you csnsidered that the
non-resident holdings in the town
of Emma are larger than in Cros-
by ton, and that residents of Cros-
by county own more property in
the town of Crosbyton than they
do in Emma. This is a fact.
More than half of Crosbyton,
named for Crosby county, is
owned by Crosby county citizens.
An <?lection will be held in
Crosby county on Sept. 17 to de-
termine whether or not the coun-
ty seat now located at Emma
shall be moved to Crosbyton.
Crosbyton is within 5 miles of
the geographical center of the
county, while it is said that the
present county seat is not.
Crosbyton is also slated for a
railroad which is another argu-
ment in her favor.—Stanton Re-
porter. ♦,

J. E. Miller met us Monday
morning and had a rather long.
face and said the cause was.
that he had a bit to his well i
drilling machine some two bun- |
dred feet in the ground and had
it hung so that he had been un-
able to get it loose and had
spent some time in an effort to
take it up. We hope he will soon
overcome the dificulty and be
putting down more wells.
