The forest fire that swept over
Sideling Hill mountain last week
did untold damage, and was a
great loss to the owners ot the
land. It was started by some
malicious person, or by the care
lessness of some smoker. Or, it
may have been started by some
one who wanted to gather ' the
early fruit on the knobs. It would
evidently be advisable to raise
fruit in the garden, as the fight
ing of fire is by no means pleas
ant work and detrimental to the
health of those so engaged. It is
said that certain persons are
chuckling up their sleeves, bnt
from what we learn in the "Good
Book" they may see more smoke
in the future.

WHIPS COVE.
The fire devils took advantage
of the dry windy weather, and
the consequence was, fire raged
at a territio pace on both sides of
Town Hill and Sideling Hultnoun
tains several days last week. The
bre warden with a brigade of
firemen, fought night and day.
The weather wan very hot and
together with very high wind
made it an awful -task. But the
rain soon made an end of it Sat
urday night. The cost of fight
ing the fire on Sideling Hill was
estimated at $70.00, which is but
a small sum compared with the
loss to the owners of the timber.
Miller Truax and wife visited
friends in the Cove last Saturday

Mow Women Caa Earn Money.
Attend college if you can. The
present educational system de
mands teachers with this train
ing. The highest positions are
open to college graduates. What
is your college? is the first ques
tion asked when you apply for a
teacher's position. It will be
ten times easier for the college
graduates to obtain a position as
teacher in any line than for the
girl with only high-school and
normal school training. Your
professors are as anxious to have
their graduates "land" fine posi
tions as pupils are to obtain them
It brings credit to a college when
its graduates fill high places.
Superintendents of city schools
go among graduates of their alma
mater for teachers.
If you think a college course
beyond you, it is because you
have not looked up the matter.
Send for the catalogues of your
State university and other col
leges. You will be surprised to
see how little tuition costs.
Should you have to teach to earn
the money, take courses at sum
mer schools, or save until you
can take one or t wo years' leave
of absence. Experience in teach
mg will count for much in college
work. You will find helping
hands extended to you on every
side as a student many scholar
ships endowed by societies and
individuals, Students' Aid com
mittees, N. W. C. A. college
branches. These all make it pos
sible for any girl to go through
college if Bhe has grit and ambition.
The one thing to guard against
is to try and do too much work
outside while taking your college
course. Many girls who have
helped themselves through col
lege deans have told me that it is
better to borrow the money for
your studies and to work less
bard. Remember that your earn
ing capacity is to increase all the
time; you will be able to pay the
money loaned eventually. If pos
sible, borrow of business con
cerns, or banks, rather than per
sonal friends. Rent money as
you rent your room. That is
what paying interest means, so
it need not frighten you so.
