FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 21.
ANSWERING THE CALL.
Homos rind hearts wore touched
jib a number of our Bartlctt Bo- s
left this wcok in response to their
Country's Call.
"While we exceedingly regret the
circumstances that necessitated the
call being made, yet an exalted jus-
tice and benevolence is the touch-
stones of our civic life and of all our
national and international relations,
and -while our civilization is dark-
ened by a military eclipse we cannot
allow the torches of recdoni to wane.
European Autocracy is doomed. It
has been weighed in the balance and
found wanting. Republics are slow
to resort to war, and only do so in
self-defense, as a rule.. Germany is
to have a new birth of freedom.
Sometimes it seems to require the
furnace of war to melt the chains of
slavery.
The world has been brought face
to face with stern realities. It has
been seeing some things in the lurid
light of war, and perhaps the most
important thing it has seen, is that
war is a scourge, which God uses to
punish disobedient nations. Men ori-
ginate wars, but God aftV.es the pen-
alty and directs their consequences.
The iBoys that Bartlett is contrib-
uting to Humanity's call is a noble
band of young fellows and we expect
,them to give a splendid account of
themselves. Perhaps a more loyal
company never bade goodbye to their
loved ones than this community is
furnishing and no doubt they will find
increasing joy through their service
to others.
How often at a funeral have you
heard the expression: "Ho was a
good man," and how often did you
hear that expression whilo the corpse
was alive? Maybe you have said
the same thing of several corpses.
Why did you wait until they wcro
corpses to say it? It didn't make
the corpse any happier; it would
have made the living man much hap-
pier. Did you disliko him living and
wait until he was dead to say a good
word for him ? If so, and your neigh-
bors knew of your animosity, can you
blame them for looking on you as
something of a hypocrite? The dead
needs no encomiums. If tho living
mnn desorves no praise his dead body
does not. In doing unto others as
you would have others do unto you
a kindly word is among your duties.
Kind words are among the highest
buds of flowers for the living; kind
deeds are tho full blown roses. Exchange.
Never speak one word concerning
the faults of others except after a
tender prayer for them, and
a tender' prayer for them, and
then only with a view of helping
them. Common gossip is a sympton
of an empty mind and a clarion lov-
ing heart. It is very Un-Christ-like.
Dutton.
Under the prevailing systems of
Christianity it is necessary that a
tian be a member of some denomi-
national church. The church never
hurts a man, though a man may hurt
a church. When church membership
does not benefit a man the man is
not benefiting the church. Where
both church and man are benefited,
Christianity prevails. Cameron Herald.
Don't allow yourself to become
discouraged. God and nature intend-
ed you to amount to something
don't disappoint them. Annon-
ymous. N
Tho committee appointed by . the
Houso of Representatives to arrange
plans for investigating all depart-
ments and Institutions of tho State
have not fully decided what method
will bo pcrsucd to get tho best re-
sult from tho investigation. They
say that tho work cannot bo done
in n short time and bo done effective-
ly. Toi make an investigation -niul a
thorough audit, would not take much
if any, less than a year, as tho res-
olution includes all the institutions
outside of Austin as well as those
there.
"Tho man who loves other nations
as much as ho loves his own country
is on a par with the man who loves
other women as much as ho loves his
own wife. If a man has been with-
in our borders for a while and
doesn't like it, let him get out. The
professors of every form of hyphe-
nated Americnnism nro as thorough-
ly tho foes of this country as if
they dwelled without its borders and
mado active war against it," said
Theodore Roosevelt in a speech, and
what American dare say lie is not
absolutely right? y

At a small profit is what we will
cater to this fall. We are tired of
putting out goods on account at
cash prices, and the very minute
some of these same customers get
a few dollars, have them run over
the country and spend their cash
elsewhere. We will put prices so
low that even the worst credit cus
tomer can find no excuse to help
the other fellow.

THE CLOTHES YOU WANT FOR FALL
wesesk

Here is one of the models for the
"Hard-to Fit" man.
All-wool clothes are the only clothes
economy. If you haven't been wear-
ing Hart Schaffner & Marx clothes,
maybe your experience with cotton-
mixed 'mercerized' fabrics has taught
you something.
Have your clothes kept in shape? Do
you feel satisfied with them? Have
they proved to be worth the price?
Maybe you'll take our advice this fall
and get the best. Hart-Schaffner
& Marx use none but pure wool fabric
or wool and silk, It's the only thing
worth buying in clothes.
We Sell These
Fine Clothes. They
Are Right.
