Copp, Washington, D. C. More people have been in town the past week than in any week for a long time. They are beginning to realize that Washington is the place to buy goods the cheapest in the country. The Local News has begun booming Morgansville and Clyde and downing its own town.

The or (jiitton. is a little bit the poorest paper in the state. It never has any local or general news in its columns and how such a paper as ii has surved even as long as it has is wonder.

We occasionally discover a man in the county who is mean enough to take this paper two or three years without paying a cent for it and send it back through the sostoffice marked 'Refused."

"Idleness in youth is like drinking liquor it forms a habit which grows until its victim becomes entirely at its mercy. The result of idleness finds theyoung man at 'manhood's pride with no visible means of support, with no trade or profession, and too often with no desire for anything that at least savors of manual labor. The bread and butter question stares him in the face, and be resorts to every means left him to make ends meet Some of the voung men of course fall into the regular channel of trade and become useful citizens. Others be come useless vagabonds, loafing from place to place, no good to themselves or anvbody else. Others fall to the lower walks of life and become'thieve? These are some of the results of idleness in' youth.

We are very doubtful if any of the lower walks of life wcatld find auv followers if children were en gaged in healthy profitable employ mentnot irksome labor, but. as it weye, a preparatory school for the real existence of manhood and womanhood which is sure to come in time. Parents who have nothing for their children to do but to loaf on the street and hear and use profane and vulgar language, and participate in questionable sports from one weeks end to another, are sure to reapja bitter harvest. of 9 IRST National Bank. bargains in all kinds of raw and improved lands and in town lots and city property.
