New York.^The flag of the
Adventure^':.Qlub of America,
borne befc^bply W the expedi
tions of Amundsen and' Scott,
antarctic explorers,; was carried
seaward for the third time Sun
day. This time the emblem flew
from the masthead of the gaso
line Jnotor yacht Speejacks,
bound from $ew -York on a
50,000 mile cruise, the first
niqtorH)oa1j to - attempt the cir
cumnavigation of the globe.
With ten men, all hardened
adventurers, and one woman,
aboard, the Speejadfcs, besides
making the circuit of the South
Sea3 and skirting the coast of
Africa, will spStfer its way up
rivers of China , and Indo-China
where the White Devil has seldom
been seen afloat. Some of these
rivers are haunted by pirates,
but the • Speejacks is prepared.
Aboard are two machine guns
and an abundance of rifles dnd
other small arms.
The boat wa3 built for the trip
at a cost of $225,000, Its owner,
Albert Y. Gowen, a Chicago
millionaire, formerly commodore
of the Cleyeland Yacht. Club, won
international recognition in 1913,
when an earlier Speejacks estab
lished a world’s record as the
fastest motor, boat of cruiser
type. Tne award was won at
a race at Put-In-Bay Ohio, in a
race between Commodore Go-
wen’s boat and a cruiser owned
by Carl G. Fisher of Indianapol-
lis, and Miami, Fla., former
president of the Prestoiite Com
pany.
“GO-GETTERS”
For many years the reading
public has been familiar with
such words as “optimists,”
“boomers,” and “boosters,” and
thoroughly understands what
these words mean. It is now
finding in print a new word,
“go-getter” and giving to this
word a variety of meanings.
All these supplied meanings are
oermissibje but in commercial
parlance a “go-getter” is a fel
low who delivers the goods
while other fellows are talking;
about going and getting them.
“Go-getters” are nowadays in
great demand in the business
world and command the very
highest salaries; indeed several
of them are paid salaries higher
than the highest paid presidents
and managers of the very, con
cerns by whom they are employ
ed. “Go-getters” are the men
who today are placing business
again oh its feet.
The Bleckley Memorial Insti
tute has been running three
weeks and prospects are that
this will be the banner year of
the school, taking into consider
ation, the applications and
students now attending. -The
faculty is composed of college
trained teachers with experience.
Prot. Snow anticipates a great
year for the school, and the same
efficient work that has character
ized the school in the past shall
be the endeavor of the. faculty
even to a greater degree, r

Guess We’ll Try This.
A Virginia Editor/threatened
to publish the nam/of a certain
young man who /tvas seen hug
ging and kissjjrfg a girl in tho
park unless bis subscription to
the paper was paid up in a week.
Fifty-nine young men called and
paid up next day. whil* two even
paid a >ear in advance. - Ex.
The above reminds us of the
ad an Illinois farmer put in his
local paper—that he had lost a
young Holstein heifer calf arid
would give a pint of good whiskey
as a reward for its return next
morning there were twelve men
in his barn yard each with a
Holstein heifer calf claiming the
reward.—Forest City Courier.
A Morning Thought
As we rise in the morning to
start the activities of the day, it
is well to reflect that vve arc
turning a new white page in our
diaries. What shall be written
upon it at night?—that is the
question. Will it be a record of
a day of duties well done, or
wholesome pleasures enjoyed.
Will the day add the record of
pure thoughts and high purposes,
or will we find the page blurred
and blotted by questionable acts
and doubtful associations? We
are our historians. You and I
must make the record on each
page ourselves. Others may in
fluence us, but the writing is
ours. Let the daily record be a
record of work done, duties per
formed, successes /attained. In
this way we till out the pages of.
our story, with a record which '
will be noble and leave behirni
us a memory which will be
praiseworthy. —The Uplift.
