Foreign Representative Carpenter A Company, 122 Michigan Avenue, Chicago, Fifth Avenue Bldg., New York City, N. T. Life Bldg., Kansas City, Mo. MR. LOWRY ON JOHN W. DAVIS: — Edward (I. Lowry, one of the best known writers in America and one who knows John W. Davis from close contact, has written an interesting story of the democratic candidate. He shows that when Mr. Davis finished his career in congress, solicitor general and ambassador to England he was dead broke, that he is a high class, able man, best fitted to be president of any man who has sought that place in twenty years, that he is democratic and a real democrat and that his home on Long Island of which much has been said, is mortgaged heavily. He says Mr. Davis has both luck and brains and deserves the confidence of the people. He Says: — "I venture to prophesy that being a candidate for president will not affect Mr. Davis’ manners or methods; that ids qualities will not desert him. H? is as sincere, straight-forward and strai'-lit-spoken a man as lives. He has not much passion or fire. He has convictions, but he does not scream them. He has clear beliefs and definite political principles. He said to me two months ago: • " ‘The democratic party has no place in <>ur national life except us the party of liberalism,' and formulated this democratic creed: “ 'We believe that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness; that the best government' is that which governs least; that the Constitution and its limitations were made to be obeyed; that local self government is indispensable to liberty; that the people can be trusted to control their own destiny; that taxes can be levied only for the support of government economically administered;, that unnecessary taxation is unjust taxation; that the end of all government is to furnish equal and exact Justice to all men and special privileges to none; and that public office is a public trust. These are the essentials of that Jeffersonian creed which has been through all the years the guide and stay of the party which he founded and endowed. We meet, therefore, to rededicate ourselves to a party whose ambition is service, not mastery; whose alm i B opportunity, not privilege; whose beast is honor and not profit; and whose Ideal is freedom and not restraint.’,” Mr. Nutt, of the Clover Leaf industrial department was here last even*nu urging action which will give his tmpany the right to build a side trsik t<> the Bell factory and to the * proposed for the new »10.000 livestock yards. The matter will be takUP ' il understood, by the city council In a short time and it U Btn . cerely hoped the proper arrangements will be made to provide the necessary double trackage needed here for these purposes and to take care the other business here. We know of no good reason why ft should not be granted. The fair opened today and the in terest manifested is pleasing to thou in charge. That’s ths proper spirit Let’s all pull together, help each oth

Face to Face r. r. With T. Cary Travers Grayson ir The Physician of Presidents (By Joo Mitchell Chapple) ;a 10 To have been physician to the g President of the United States In 0 different days during three adminis--5 trations and detailed to remain in 0 Washington by a fourth, is a distinc--0 tion in llbelf. Rear Admiral Cary 11 Travers Grayson was attending and [. consulting physician in Washington (luring the Roosevelt and Taft administrations. and personal physician to President Wilson. The late President Harding had him' continue in Washington to attend ex-Presldent Wilson. Serving a longer time as medical adviser at the White House than any previous physician. President Wilson ( and his doctor became very close . friends, personally as well as profes-' sionally, and he can relate many in- 1 teresting experiences. A real Virginian of magnetic personality.

I A student at the William and Mary College, he graduated fro mthe U.S. | Naval Medical School in 1904. and his professional work has been closely identified with Washington ever since.

er and profit in the long run by the general good to the community. The fair will continue until Friday night with a big program every day and Take the family and have a good time. The traffic gets heavier each day and the problem becomes more difficult to handle. If every one would obey the speed limit laws and other regulations the various towns and cities could save money with which to make other needed improvements. When you don’t do it, traffic officers and speed cops become a necessity. If you are caught, the only thing to do is to smile as you pay. The man who wants a home should buy a lot first. When he has that , paid for he has the best asset in the world for financing the home. It is unreasonable to expect to buy a home and lot with nothing to pay down s and only the ability to pay a small , amount each month. Buy a lot now while you can buy them cheap, pay for it and then plan to build a home. 0 The Indiana democrats will meet 3 at Indianapolis Thursday of this week * to plan their campaign.

keep well than to prescribe how to get well," Admiral Grayson's hobby is horses. A member of the National Capital horse show in Washington, he had hie horse, "My Own,” ready to substitute for "Zev." to contest the honors from "Papyrus,” the Derby winner. The kindly virtues of the old-fash-ioned country doctor are Included in e his sympathetic and kindly manner, i He made a cruise on the U. S. S. i- Maryland and was surgeon at Urol i United States Naval Hospital in . Washington. r Whether present as the doctor on I the President’s private yacht, the i “Surgery is making great progress, salvaging many human beings who i might otherwise be declared derelicts.” "Annapolis training is rigid, but liuperb in results. It drives for essentials." , "Are we due for longer lives?” "Yes, people are becoming healthier as they observe simple rules of exercise and diet. Surgery is making great progress, salvaging many human I beings who might otherwise have (been declared derelicts. Life at its best is hazardous, but prolonging life f as a scientific and mathematical , calculation is a clarified analysis of .cause and effect.” ‘ I Once you have met this mediums zed. dark-haired doctor, or Admiral according to rank, you do not wonder at the tribute paid him by naval medical colleague: "To meet Cary GrayI son is to love him. He is the sort of 'a doctor who you feel fit—Just to have him around and say, ’Hello, brace up—and keep moving.”

APOLOGIES If you feel to apologize or defend A ‘ something.'’ or word or deed.— Best not do it. Nine times in ten Apologies only concede That you failed, —tell down, —made a fool of yourself; It won’t change “opinion" a bit; Things are as they are,—just shoulder the blame, — Its on you,—that’s all there Is to it. This life’s too short for whys, wherefores, And explanations of sins; The world hasn't time for the man who fails But makes room for the man who wins. Deliver the goods or else keep still, — Your hands and your feet and your tongue And your eyes and ears and head are yours,— You're the "cause” —or cursed or sung. Know what you should do, —what’s right in view Os all the claims of life; Then roll up youy sleeves and set your jaw , I And do it. —or die in the strife. l And if you must make a report, why. make it. ! And just as It is.—don’t lie! ( Nor try to explain, nor pity yourself, It's no use to tell people “why.” We’re all sore tempted sometimes and wish “We’d never this job undertaken;"' h And we all get left in the game some- . times. While other men bring in the ba- ► con. b Once in a while they are lucky,— pel haps.— But “luck" nine times in ten r Is a matter of courage and good common sense,— And playing the game like men. —A.
