Death of Nolen T. Greeson.
On Thursday evening, July 29th,
the death angel visited the home of
Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Greeson and took
from them their oldest son, Nolen.
He was born April 12, 1897 and died
July 29, 1915. H)e suffered for only
a week. All that loving hearts and
tender hands could do for him was
done, but it was not God’s will that
he should tarry here.
Those who knew him best loved
him most. He elaves a father, moth
er, four sisters and one brother and
many relatives to mourn his death.
Seen in “the City of the Dead”
Take a walk through the cemetery
alone and you will pass the resting
place of a man who looked into the
muzzle of a gun to see if it was load
ed. A little further down the slope
is a crank who tried to show how
clcse he could stand to a moving
train while it passed.. In strolling
about you will see the monument of
the hired girl who tried V> i tart the
fire with kerosne, and a grass-cover
ed knoll that covers the boy who
tickled the mule’s tail. That tall
shaft over a man wiho blew out the
gas casts a shadow over the boy who
tried to get on a moving train. Side
by side by the pretty creature who
always had her corset laced in the
last hole and the intelligent creature
who rode a bicycle nine miles in ten
minutes sleep unmolested. At repose
its a doctor who took a dose of his
own medicine. There with a big mar
ble monument over his head is a rich
old man who married a young wife.
Away over there reposes a boy who
went fishing on Sunday, and the wo
man w'ho kept strychnine powders in
the cupboard. The man who stood
in front of the mowing machine to
oil the knives is quiet now, and rests
beside the careless brakeman who fed
himself to the 70-ton engine, and nea
by may be seen the grave of a man
who tried to whip the editor. —Ken-

TEMPERANCE.
(By Mrs. Harry Segura.)
Some Russian Statistics.
A dispatch from Washington on
June 27th. said:
The suppression by the Russian
Government of vodka-drinking is cost
ing that country 126,000,000 a month
in excise revenue, according to the
official returns for January, 1915,
sent to the United States Department
of Commerce by Consul-General J. H.
Snodgrass, at Moscow. The loss iu j
taxes is estimated at $260,000,000 for
the current year.
As against this, the savings of the
people, mostly of the peasant clash,
who were largely addicted to vodka,
have increased in the savings banks
300 to 500 per cent., the total Y'depos
its for March, 1915, having beta 46,
000,000 roubles, or $23,690,000. To
tal deposits are $3,600,000,000.
The rate of deposit before the wai
was about $9,000,000 a month, so tha
the net gain in saving in a year
would be $'108,000,000 subtracted from
$284,000,000, which equals $176,000,-
000. Inasmuch as the Russian Gov
eminent is authorized by law to in
vest the savings funds in Governmen
bonds, the deposits practically becorn
a Government revenue, and, therefore
are to be subtraetd from the amount
of excise tax decrease in estimating
the actual decrease in Government
revenue. When this is done, the net
deficit in reveuue (the increase in
saving subtracted from the loss in
taxes) amounts to $84,000,000 a year
This is more than offset, the Czar
contends, by increased efficiency thru
sobriety, which means better work
on the farms and factories, with con
sequent higher wages and higher
prices for industrial products, and al
so means, he holds, better fighting
qualities in soldiers and sailors. —Na-
tional Advocate.
From statistic® made public by
the internal Revenue officials at
Washington it is estimated that the
people of this country spend more
than $3,000,000,000 for intoxicants and
stimulant each year.
During the fical year, which end
ed June 30, 1914 it i® estimated that
the drinkers of this country consum
ed the enormous total of 143,300,000
gallons of wh'sky and brandy. Fur
thermore, it is observed that 64,5000,
000 barreis of beer flowed down the
throats of lovers of the amber brew.
This exceeds 191 l's great record by
more than 1,000,000 barrels.
In round number® is it safe* to say
that S3O is the average per capita ex
penditure for every man, woman and
child in the United State®' each year, j
Is it to be wondered a that depen
dency and delinquency are at high I
tide.
Indulgence in intoxicants and stim
ulants is doubtless the greatest hand
icap to our national progress. If it
were possible to estimate the actual
value of the loss in efficiency the
figures would be appalling.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
income of this country is $35,000,000-
000 a year ninety five persons of ev
ry 100 who reach the age of sixty
are still dependent upon their daily
this country that it is the home of
10,000,000 poverty stricken persons.
It is too much to expect that self
denial or even prohibitory laws will
ever annihilate this needless expendi
ture. But it is not too much to- ex
pect thrifty Americans will eventu
ally effect a slight reduction in thus
great national leakage.
The successful consummation of a
“twenty-five per cent, annual saving
in intoxicants and stimulants” expend
ed in legal reserve life insurance an
nually would drive pauperism, depend
ency and delinquency, from the cairn
try in less than five years. The finan
cial condition of all classes would be
so healthy that this disease of de
pendence could no longer exist. Yet
extravagant America drifts along day
after day, and year after year, in
the channels of indifference and ex
travagance.
