And carry a ton on your back, And blister your heels and your shoulders, too, Where the strap run down from your pack. In the rain or the snow or the mud, perhaps, In the smothering heat or the cold, If you have, Why then you're a budd of ours And we welcome you into our fold. Did you ever eat with your plate la your lap? With your cup on the ground at your side, While cooties and bugs of species .un told, Danced fox trots over your hide. Did you ever sleep in a tent so small That your head and your feet played tag? Then shake, old man, .you're a pal of ours, For you've followed the same old flag. Did you ever stand in a front line trench, With Fritzie a few feet away With Jerries and Minnies a whistling around, And cn5 rtnmlncr nuor all Ann'i With no Man's Land a sea of steel And a tempest of bursting shell? Then come in old man and toast your shins, For we're all just back from hell. E. B. Sublett, A. E. F. County? Some farmers get tired of the old home county sell out and go either west or South, hoping to better their condition. Ofter a mistake is made and occasionly a farmer betters his situation by seeking and locating in a new country. Most generally through, the farmer who remains at home comes out best in the end. To show that a good farmer can do as well here as elsewhere, we relate the following: In 1917 Mr. R. K. Young sold his. farm, lying two miles east of Columbia, to Mr. Tilden Wilcoxsin, of Green county, for 88,000 and a little later bought a farm near West Point Miss., and he is now on it, and we hope Jthat he is doing well. He is a good farmer and a first-clasman. Mr. Wilcoxsin went to work on his farm here, and the first year he made and sold and has yet to sell worth of stuff raised and grown on it in little over twelve months. Futhermore, he has been offered four different times $16,000 for the farm he paid 98,000 for, and he has answered every time "My farm is not for sale." Does this not look like farming in Adair county pays? Mr-You- ng Mr. Allen Walker transferred his farm, last week, known as the Epper- h W son farm, located near Montpelier, to Ray and Robert Caldwell for 88,220 farms in the This is one of the-be- st county. Farmers have commenced discussing the coming of the 17 year locust, the proper name of which is cicada. They are due in a number of States this spring, including Kentucky.

She will be removed to the home of her parents in a few days. a prominent young man of Burkesvilie, a son of Mr. J. H. Ritchey, died last Thursday night. He was about twenty-seveyears old and for several years he was engaged in the grocery business, with his father. He was a victim of pulmonary trouble and recently returned from New MexiOwsley Ritchey, n J co where he remained several months, hoping to be benefitted. He was popu- j at family.

Quite a number of people are fearful that too much attention will be paid to tobacco growing this season and not enough to corn. One farmer stated Thursday that in the Southern part of Adair county, ten acres of corn would be planted to every one acre set in tobacco, and it is likely the ratio is the same over the county.

Senator Borah, of Idaho, has asked to be excused from attending the dinner at the White House at which President Wilson will discuss with members of the Foreign Relations Committees of Congress the constitution of the proposed League of Nations. In a letter to Secretary Tumulty, Senator Borah said it was the custom to hold in confidence any information received at such a gathering and that he was not willing to be bound to silence on such an important subject, on which he and the President disagreed fundamentally. He added that nothing could make him agree with the constitution of the league as it now stood. White House officials said no other member of the committees had declined the President's invitation and that it was understood all the others would accept. On receiving the Idaho Senator's letter today Secretary Tumulty immediately transmitted it by wireless to President Wilson aboard the transport Geerge Washington on his way home from France.. - St jurf.v .? -- ?

Premier Georges Clemenceau, characterized by Lloyd George as "France's grand young man, was" attacked February 19, by an anarchist, Emile Cottin, known as "Milou." Seven shots were fired, three of which struck the Premier. One bullet lodged in the muscles of the shoulders, penetrating deeply, but, so far as is at present known, not injuring the spine, or penetrating to the lungs, Two bullets bruised the right arm and hand, white two other bullets are reported to have passed through the Premier's clothing. At the time of the attempted assassination M. Clemenceau had just left his home to drive in a motor car to a conference with Col. Edward M. House, of the American peace delegation, and Arthur J. Balfour, British Secretary of Foreign Affairs. Though bleeding profusely, M. Clemenceau was able to return to his home, where he reassured the members of his household and waved aside anxious inquirers with "It is nothing." Latest reports, from his attendants were that his condition was satisfactory and that he was cheerful throughout the day despite occasional fits of coughing. $1.50 per year in advance in Adair County and 1st and 2nd Postal Zones. 2.00 per year in advance beyond the 2nd Postal Zone. THE ADOPTION. TEXT-BOO- K The adoption of textbooks to be used in the schools of Kentucky for the next five years has been completed. No doubt some needed and good changes have been made. It remains to be seen when the complete list and prices are published whether material and real improvement has been made. It is significant, however, at this time, that while the Governor, who is chairman of the commission that he appointed, promised the people the fewest number of changes possible, the maximum number possible has been changed. While many of the books adopted five years ago were never our choice, and, we foughtbitterlynotonlytheir adoption, but the corrupt plan by which they were forced upon the people, we can see no improvement in the material and unnecessary andexpensive changes that have, by this commission been made. We have heard of no charges of graft and of no dissension among the commissioners, incident to this adoption. Indeed it has been done in a remarkably quiet way, we fear too quietly and unanimously. It Is of course, truly evident that the fewest number of changes possible would have worked the least hardship upon the masses of the 3eopIe the majority of whom are poor. At the same time the largest number of changes possible would naturally give the great-e- st opportunity for the exercise of insidious influences and graft mo usually incident to book adoption. However, all is well that tends well, and the dear people may never know the. difference 5n theie f at days of prosperity. J t ii v'l Dear father: This is Xmas eve and I am still in France.
