Sanders settled here and to hig zeal and persistence the place owes its origin. Mr. Sanders lived to see three rail roads in all here, giving 212 acres to the Seaboard in a right of way. The town has had three names— " Sanders," Campbelkon," and “Fair fa.':.” We are not told how it has at. las; acquired this old Virginia name The town Is here to stay, and possesses an unsuspected ambition and public spirit. Mr. G. D. Sanders, who has 4,000 acres about the town, aiong with lots for building purposes, has taken in charge bis father’s interests. Together wttfi others of the best, citizens Mr. Sanders take* great pride in the school. They have here a fine plant, costing whe n heated through out by ffteam only about $7,000. Professor T. 0. Campbell has been principal, assisted by Miss Etta Cope land, , Miss Alice Singleterry, Mrs. Ora Zanders.

They dis perse themselves about thus on the WORTH WHILE COLUMN-TRY IT Mind Wanderings. (From the Business Philosopher.) The wise business man will make It his special business early In life to make a liberal Investment, in a friend making factory. The world wants men who grow. The trouble is there are so many millions who seem to live in contin ual dread of suffering from growing pains. It pays to take a trial* balance at the end of the day’s business —a men tal trial balance of the business your mind and soul and body have done. Most men go ahead. But the ma jority resemble the famous Slow Train Through Arkansas when they ought to be the Empire State Ex press. It is a heap better to have fools laugh at you in youth for being wise than to have wise men laugh at you in old ng,, for having been a fool in youth. A true sport is the fellow who plays the game to the limit—whether it be baseball, football, yachting, selling groceries or promoting a million dol lar corporation. The boy who has a purpose, who keeps ever before him a goal at which he desires to arrive, who desires to arrivd with all the intensity of his being, is bound to arrive. The business man who expects to settle with his creditors at ten cents on the dollar will undoubtedly be given that pleasure if getting whal i he expects yields him pleasure. WHAT IS SUCCESS? lßy H. B. MYKR.) Note the ideals of the different na tions at various stages of the world's progress. When the ‘glory that was Rome" held the nations in subjection, the successful man was the titan ol military conquest Th,. people moved, lived and had their being in the spirit of imperialism. Some centuries later we have crusades and religious wars w ith a corresponding shift tn the defi nition of success Still later we have the spirit of discovery letting loose the energy of the world and the defi nition of success is again altered. This last mentioned period naturally led up to an unprecedented activity in trade ar.d commerce and w are forced to give our kaleidoscope another turn in order to view success from a differ ent angle. A glance at history shows that as civilization advances humanity be comes less and less brutal—that the finer feelings and qualities of the in dividual continue to play a more im- A Place Which Has Had Three Names and Three Railroads—lt Has Now Commenced a Growth Which is Promising—News Notes and Personals. field; R.

This Is supported by the fact that in the last decade or so there is a growing ethical sense in mankind which is manifesting itself in the business world, this no doubt being a result of popular education and the ever increasing dissemination of ideas and knowledge through the printed word. Giving recognition to this fact is not getting away from the business world. It Is simply putting it on a higher plane, and in doing so it is again changing the definition of sue cess 1n that it makes it more inclu sive ..,an heretofore, as it should in corporate this ethical aspect. In oth er words, the "square deal” in busi ness is becoming every day'more and more the rule and not the exception. It Is the only way to build business. Accordingly our present-day defini tion of success finds its metes and bounds much more extended and on a higher plane than formerly. Its es sence is not so much the acquirement of titles, power and pelf.” but the attainment and preservation of an ideal—an ideal which not only has within it that which will develop the better qualities in one’s nature, but also an ideal that is legitimate and practical. Advertising Not Interesting? Now', honestly, wouldn’t that state ment give one the collyw'obbles? Think of an apparently sane, brass-lined, self confessed advertising man making such an asinine statement as that! Only the fact that this peculiarly con structed genius hailed from a cross roads town saved him from suffering the fate of the Salem witches. Those who heard him merely looked at one another and said, “O l ord forgive him for he knows not what he says." Advertising uninteresting? Ten years ago the Victor Talking Machine company was represented by an idea and hut little else. Today it pays dividends on two and a half mil lions of dollars. In seven years it has accumulated a surplus of $3,552,000. The Kastman Kodak company pays a six per cent dividend on $6,000,000 worth of preferred stock and 25 per cent on $19,500,000 worth of common stock, and has earned in twelve years over $33,500,000. The dealers of see that-hump hook and eyes has for eight years paid 16 per cent per annum on $1,000,000. What a business There's-a Reason Post must do in order to in vest annually $700,000 in advertising. And how about Shredded Wheat and its $2,000,000 factory? And Toasted Corn Flakes? And Heinz with his fif ty-seven? And the great mail order houses? What are all these but monuments to Advertising-- Advertising the twen tieth century djinn that stands forth as a Master Servant of Millions. And think of the stories of success It has written. Think of the color, the beauty, the strength, the heroism, the furious soul testing fights it has witnessed! And then to hear this: "Advertising is such a deueedly uninteresting sub ject. don't you know." Hurry with the salts, James. times it may be proud of the team. It seems so in this case. And we can understand it when we learn that Fairfax has won 11 of 12 games; 2 of them from the Charleston Tigers! The vote for a high school at Fair fax has our best wishes. The awaken ing of the community to higher agri culture, under such leadership as 'that of F. M. Young, and to better town government, led by Mayor Light sey, must issue in the best possible educational facilities. In this con nection we may felicitate the town upon the generosity of Mr. G. D. Sanders in opening a fine private li brary to public uses. There is nothing in climate or sit uation to keep the old town back from new life. Only let the people pull together and the success and prosperity of one will be that of all. It was a pleasure to hear of how such a worthy man as Mr. Lancaster had from the citizens some noble help when a fire swept away his home. It is a privilege that the strong al ways has —helping a good man when in trouble.

Everything in Lumber THURSDAY, JULY 29. INCREASES WEIGHT QUICKLY Simple Way for the Thin and Pale to Be Plump and Rosy. , Samose can hardly be termeaw- med icine; it is in reality a flesh forming food. Taken before or after meals, it mingles with the food you eat, enables it to assimilate and readily digest, so as to make rich blood and pleasing plumpness. After Samose has been used a week or ten days a noticeable gain in weight is seen. The sallow complex ion will become the sunken cheeks will have a ruddy glow, eyes wil-be bright.'the breath sweet and the step elastic. With the return of good health fol lowing the use of Samose, emaciation is overcome, and the thin and scrawny are once more plump and rosy. Green & Horsey’s customers have told of the remarkable results follow ing the use of Samose, the great flesh forming food, and they are so thor oughly convinced of its reliability that they are selling it ,under a personal guarantee to refund the if it does not do all that is claimed for it. You w'ho are thin and in poor health cannot afford to let another day pass without getting a 50c box of Samose on those terms. G. a F.
