“Mrs. George Quintard Horwitz,
mayor of Moorehaven, Fla., the first
woman to be mayor of a southern
town, has demonstrated her indepen
dence by marrying her secretary.
This mayor is a northern lady with
a winter home in Florida. Her hus
band can continue to be her secre
tary can’t he?
l The ““Only One’’ |
“ And all that remained was brought
back to them wrapped in his country’s
flag! Their “only one’” had been
offered and accepted as their great
sacrifice.
She had been so proud of her boy
when he had learned by hard work
Lieutenancy in the Regular Army.
She had given him joyfully and yet
in sorrow. In leaving, this six foot
boy had said: ‘“Mother put your arms‘
about me and hold me tight. It will
help to make me brave!” And then
he gave all that he had for his coun-‘
try. |
The Drag of the Hours. ‘
From Wednesday until Monday
morning, does not the sun stand still?
Have not the days grown longer?
And the interminable nights? Is not
the sunshine sad? Does not the
beautiful moon weep at the agony
of the hours? At last, “all that re
mains” of the Only One comes back
to his mother wrapped in the
flag for which his life was laid down!
It was four o’clock in the morning.
A new day indeed had begun.
Why Did I Go?
Have you not been hungry some
times,—not for food, or praise, or
fame, or pleasure, or money, or pow
er,—but just hungry for the chance
to be of service?” Yes, a hunger that
only the “meat and drink” of service
cam sabisfy! We bave all bad that
hunger. o

THE DEVIL HAS QUIT.
{Complaints ef Raffety the Primber,
Olean.)
The Devil sat by the lake of fire,
. On a pile of sulphor kags;
Hiss hoad was bowed upsn his breast,
| A look of shamse was in his face,
- The sparks dripped frema his eyes.
Hte Fad semt his resignation im .
~ To the throne akove the skies.
T'mydown and owt,” the devil said,
| /And e said it with a swb,
““There are athems, that ewteluws rae”
Awil I want te give up my jeb.
Hiedl 't in it with the lamd
That lies alomg the Rhbine,
I'sa old and eut-of-date
And thgwefore I resign. |
One Krupp, munition maker, |
With his bloody shot and shell,
Knows more about damnation l
Than all the imps of hell.
Give my job to Kaiser Bill
Or to Ferdinand, the Czar
‘v to Sultan Abdul Hamid,
Or sothe such man of war.
I hate to leave the Old Home
The spot I love so well
But I feel that I'm not up to date, |
In the art of running hell.”
And the devil spat a squirt of steam
At a brimstone bumble bee
And muttered “I’m outeclassed
By Europe’s kingly dev'ltry.”

THE MARIETTA JOURNAL AND COURIER
An Ode (Ious) to the West.
“Becky” and her ma, being a traveling pair,
Struck out for the West to see what was there!
According to Movies, they thought it wonld be™
Very exciting to go out and see.
Fierce bucking bronchos, and cowboys’ lasso-loops;
Shots in the air and Indian war whoops!
Bones on the desert, and wild wolves in packs,
They expected to live with chills up their backs!!{s%'"’*?
“Becky” had®visions of cowboys so bold,
As to put in the sitade the brave kmights of old. .
First, enter a bandit, with cruel black eye,
And a heavy mutsache—(a mean looking guy!) '
He goes to a hut—sees a pretty girl there,
And falls on his knees, his love to declare.
The girl loves a cowboy, so HIS love rejects, -
But that seems to be what the bandit expects.
He jumps to his feet, and with a loud cry, o
Embraces the maiden, saying, “Wed me or die!”
The maiden then fainted—-grew as limp ar reed,
So he seized the poor girl and jumped on ..s steed.
Now enter the cowboy, uncenscious of ill,
'Till the bandit and maid ride over the hill . ;
Then hot is the chase and the bullets fly.
Muttered our hero: “That VILLIAN must die!”
So he shot, but the bullet went into the roan,
And the bandit fell under the horse with a groan!
But the maiden, unhurt, sprang up with joy,
Threw her begutiful arms ’round her brave cowboy.
And the bandit in his horse’s blood soaked,
Just rolled up his eyes right then and croaked!ls7% &?
Thus emded the vision with the death of the cur,
And “Beck” wemdered if sueh could happem to hwir!
Now “Beck” amd her ma have been West quite a spindl,
Ard kave mo swch thriling adventures to tell!
The Spaniards are dressed in Americam clothes,
And show off alwowt the sanwe losgth ef laose!
The Indans poscelolly walk abeut tewn, s
D't shiriel er yell er jump wp amd dowin!
And there MAY ke eowboys in this wild, weely Wesk, (?)

FROM MISS ACOMMERFOQD :
WASHINGTON, D. C.
Miss Pauline Commerford, whose
fine letters from California to the
Journal were so much admired and
¢njoyed, has not yet had time to
write a Wdshington letter for the
paper but we are giving a few ex
tracts from some of her recent per
sonal letters: '
I am enclosing you herewith Mon
ey Order for another year’s sub
scription to “The Journal.” .
I am also enclosing a little photo
of the President taken when he head
ed the procession of the National Ar
my from the Capitol to the White
House, the day after Labor Day. 1
Washington was all excitement
over the National Army parade in
honor of the boys who have been se
lected by draft. Everything closed
at two P. M.
There were thirty bands in the
parade, all the National Guard, Regu
lars, Hospital Corps and the drafted
men and Department clerks. Presi
dent Wilson and Uncle Joe Cannon
headed the parade, marching on foot
from the Capitol to the White House.
Grand Army and Confederate Veter
ans marched side by side. As they
came up all the bands were playing
“Onward Christian Soldiers”, and
some of the people on the streets
took it up, and all down the avenue
from the Capitol a mile away to the
White House, the crowds were sing
ing it—the most wonderful thimg I
ever saw or heard.
Uncle Joe is eighty-ome years eld,
but he marched like a oy of twom
ty.

‘and cortainly justly se. I admire Tiima

NEW WAY TO DRY CORN.
‘Con_necticutt Yankees are preser.
ing corn in this way:
“The green corn on the cob is pick.
ed and after an inch of the tip eng
is cut off, a hole is bored through
the pith of the cob and the pith
extracted. The corn is then boiled
and after being cooled is put into
the municipal drying plant, and the
evaporator at the municipal drying
plant, and the corn dried on the cob.
“When the corn is desired for use,
it is soaked in a dish of cold water.
After soaking twelve hours, or long
er, if necessary, the corn is removed
and the water is put on to boil
‘When the water is boiling hot, the
corn is put in again and after four
minutes of heating is ready to serve.
The water can be used as a stock for
soups. The corn resumes its original
freshly picked shape and taste, and
is exactly like it was when first boil
ed before being dried.”
An Outburst of Everett True.
~ These here fereigners that
lives in this country oughta be madeo
to talk the English langrage. That’;
MY idea aboat it, bat they hain't
‘doin’c it.
Let’s stroll ever to the hwok store
and I'll buy you a gramamar so you
can luarn to tallk Englisd too!
