ORDER OF HEARING

In the County Court.
In the matter of the estate ol
David C. Morgan, deceased.
On reading and filing the petition
of Gertrude L. Morgan praying that
administration of said estate may be
granted to Kate Oliver Morgan as
Administratrix;
Ordered, that March 23rd A. D.,
1928. at ten o'clock a. m., is assign

all persons interested in said matter
may appear at a County Court to be
held in and for said county, and

A TIME OF INSPIRATION
One of the duties of a poet is to
phrase great truths so they will stick
in our minds.-
Unfortunately, the poet sometimes
does this so well that his phrase is
repeated too often. Then it becomes
a hackneyed Jungle, and we are prone
to smile in a superior way when we
hear it.
Such a phrase, for example, is the
familiar quotation: "Lives of, great
men oft remind us we can make our
lives sublime." That has been re
peated too often; its repitition brings
to mind school children earnestly re
citing it on "visitors day." It
smacks of the copy book, trite and
platitudinous.
Yet it expresses truth. One of the
best ways you can spend your time
is in reading biographies of great
men.
This is a presidential year. One
of the ways the voter can prepare
for it is by reading the lives of the
leading candidates. Doing that will
not only help him to cast his vote
intelligently; it will prove as inter
esting a task as he could find for the
long winter evenings.
It is encouraging, for example, to
read of Dawes, the penniless attorney
in a small western city, fighting his
way to the top; of Hoover, working
his way through college and toiling
with a pick and shovel in a gold
mine after graduation; of Smith
born in a tenement over a barber
shop, quitting school at 15 to help
support the family, rising to become
his excellency, the Governor of New
York.
There are a great many ambitious
young men in this country, but many
of them get discouraged too easily
"I want to get ahead, but there's
no future in this job. Haven't you
heard that again and again? The
fact of the matter is? as a reading
of biographies show that any job
can have a future," if the man filling
it so wills it.
George Bernard Shaw, for instance
started in life as an employe of a
London telephone company. Probab
ly he had an occasional doubt that
there was any chance for advance
ment in his job. Al Smith, at the
end of his first term in the New York
legislature, wanted to quit politics
altogether: he was convinced he
never could "get anywhere" that
wav. Henrv Ford, when he was
earning his living as night man in
a power house, must have wondered
if he hadn't been side-tracked.
All of this is perfectly obvious, of
course. But it is so easy to forget
it; so easy to give way to discourage
ment, to feel that all the avenues of
advancement have been closed.
Each man's opportunity lies with
in himself. That is a lesson every
one learns but many forget. If you
happen to be one of those who have
forgotten, go to the library and draw
out a few biographies. They'll do
you good.
:o:
BUSINESS AND EMPLOYMENT
Ontimistic biisiness forecasts for
this year are being heard on every
side. With them comes a less wel
come revelation that the employment
situation is far from good. Figures
vary widely, but it is apparent that
unemployment today is practically
where it was in the summer of 1924.
However, most students admit that
this is not so much due to business
recession as to the continued in
crease in the use of labor saving ma
chinery. Factory wages are high and
production is picking up; only In
many cases, factories are producing
more goods with fewer men than'for
merly. This may work hardship for the
moment, but it is no cause for alarm.
It is a situation that will adjust it
self. Our business leaders will have
to give the matter earnest attention.
of courae; but they have the brains
to find a satisfactory solution.
