IN SEARCH OF TRUTH
The father, a lawyer, was busily en¬
gaged writing at his desk when his
young son entered the room.
After a moment's silence the child
said: How old is Santa Claus, father"
“I don’t know,” was the answer.
A few moments later the poy tried
again. “Did the stork bring me here?”
“I don't know.”
Silence prevailed several minutes,
when a third question came. “Do can¬
nibals eat people?”
“I don’t know!" fairly roared the ex¬
asperated parent.
“Say, father,” said the small son,
curiously, “Who made you a lawyer.”
Evidence! Evidence!
Pretty girl in a fury
Claiming a Buick had injured her
knee.
Faced a St. Loius jury,
As calm as could be,
Wise foreman, said he:
“My be true, Miss, but we’re from
Missouri!”
The Arglian is bathed at birth, at
marriage and at death, and that is all.

Mr. and Mrs. Reader
When you pick up a copy of your home
paper, do you give any thought how it was
produced, or the money that is spent to print it
and deliver it at your home?
The newspaper of today, no matter if 25
cents a copy was charged, would be the cheap*
est thing you bought
In the first place it represents an investment
in plant and equipment of many thousands
of dollars.
Its editor and staff work diligently day in and
day out to gather all the news and present it to
you in readable fashion. It aims to keep you
informed on all the news that's "fit for ink."
With the average paper, the price you pay
for subscription does not cover the cost of
WHITE PAPEBv.
Yes, the newspaper is the cheapest thing
you buy.
Think it over. Look it over. Then support
your home paper. It's the best investment you
can make, for it brings the largest returns.
u.iuoii ojjvc ror Dears.
Kamchatka has more hears than all
the rest of east Siberia. It probably
has more bears ti an any other place
in the world. They are as plentiful
here, I believe, as buffaloes once wen
on the western plains. The main rea¬
son which T found for this is the fact
that bears do not eat during £alf th€
year. They are like grasshoppers oi
mosquitoes, or flies, and really live
only in summer. They hibernate for
six months, and are active here only
during the salmon season; and salmon
are so plentiful that bruin can live
through the entire Siberian year on
the salmon he cat hes in 3Uinmer, to¬
gether with other sea food brought
ashore in stranded seaweed, and ber¬
ries found everyv here else. And it Is
because Kamchatka province has such
a long coast nurd so many salmon
streams. Nearly the whole east Si¬
berian coast of tho Okhotsk sea, Pa¬
cific ocean, Bering sea and Arctic
ocean is included i ■ this province, with
a fish supply as great as that of our
American coast opposite, or greater.—

THE COVINGTON NEWS, COVINGTON, GEORGIA
WHAT IS “NEWS?”
Metropolitan dailies of the United
States have carried pages of publicity
and illustrations of the Dempsey-Gib
bons prize fight or “boxing match” at
Shelby, Montana. Relays of airplanes
rushed photographs to the Atlantic
coast for publication and no amount
of money was spared to picture the
event through the press and the films.
Dempsey has been given millions of
dollars’ worth of advertising which will
pave the way for his proposed fight
with Luis Firpo, the recent victor over
Willard.
Contrast «he publicity given to these
events with the few lines that are sent
out over the wires when a railroad
places a $50,000,000 order for equip¬
ment or material which will give em¬
ployment to thousands of workmen for
months; or when a hydro-electric plant
built at a cost of from $25,000,000 to
$100,000,000, turns in the water that
makes electric current for thousands
of homes, farms and factories; or when
a telephone cable is laid at an expense
of $35,000,000 from Chicago to New
York for the better service of millions
of people. Such events may be given
a paragraph over the wires.
And so it goes. Industry that fur¬
nishes the hreud and butter and keeps
the wheels of progress going is such
an ordinary occurrence it is given
scant attention and is not considered
“important news.”
Scientists believe that all salt where
ever found, has come originally from
the sea in some way or other.

SONG
Your heart is a music box, dearest!
With exquisite tunes at command,
Of melody sweetest and clearest,
If tried by a delicate hand;
But its workmanship, love, is so fine,
At a single rude touch it would break;
Then, oh! be the magic key mine,
Its fairylike whispers to wake.
And. there’s one t*ne it can play,
That I fancy all others above—
You learned it of Cupid one day—
It begins with and ends with “I love!”
My heart echoes to it “I love!”
Frances Sargent Osgood
RURAL PAPERS ARE FRIENDS
OF THE PEOPLE
The people, the common masses of
voters, are going to have to rely on the
weekly press to a great extent in the
future for relief. The weeklies are not
run from the business office, and busi¬
ness has no connection with the edi¬
torial department. The average couh
try weekly is a free lance when it
comes to expressions and opinions on
public questions.— Centerville, Ala.
