Never go away!
Take things mighty easy
While you smile and smile,
And forget your troubles

Prof. Laughlin Lectures
On Palestine.
The Stereoptican lecture on
Palestine given at the Academy '
on Wednesday night by Prof. S.
B. Laughlin, was an especially
interesting occasion. • Syrian
life and customs were vividly de-
picted by word and picture.
Scenes ? nd descriptions of Jerus-
alemand its surronndings were
of especial interest to the bible
student. Considerable light was
shed on many customs still sur-
viving among the inhabitants of
that land to which allusion is-
made in the scriptures.
Prof. Laughlin is particularly
well qualified to deal with his
subject because of a years resi-1
dence ^nd travel in the Holy
Land.
The Harper and Beaver County
central committees will meet in

morning and put in most of the
day on the sand road Leading to
the river- The boys never shirk-
ed a minute in their work, and
when evening came they had
about a half mile of good dirt
road completed, i his is the
first good road day Gate City
has pulled off, but not the last
by any means as a^ain next
Thursday the boys will don their
