Unless a Bank is
More than a
Commercial Machine

NUMBER 24

HIGH SPOTS IN THE WORLD’S LIFE DURING T^IE
YEAR 1921
•

Unless' it is more than simply an institution for

paying dividends to stockholders, unless it is
imbued with a real spirit of public service and
a desire to be a constructive and up-building
force in the community, then it is falling’short
of what a bank should be.

™e

While this bank, like all banks, must be oper­
ated for profit, it does not for a moment lose
sight of its higher duties to its customers and

to the public.

In this sense, we are all captains,

Salt and Dampness.
Salt Is what is ailed “hygmscopic,” that Is, It eagerly absorbs mois­
ture. In fact, both air and salt are
absorbents of moisture and It Is a
contest lietween litem ns to which
gets It. Results depend on atmos­
pheric conditions. Ordinary atmos­
phere always contains a projjortion
of moisture, and warm air is apt to
be more humid tiian cold, us it ab­
sorbs and holds water vapor more
readily than cold air. Sult has such
affinity for moisture that under sud)
conditions it draws it from the aljr.
When the air becomes dry, the mois­
ture Is given up by the salt, which in
turn becomes dry us it returns the
moisture to the air.

agree to furnish a certain por­
tion of the repast, the name of
each article being then crossed,
or nicked, off the list. For this
reason, this form of what the

Though this word does not
appear to have been used prior
to 1802, outdoor entertainments
of thia nature were common
during the two centuries which
preceded. Matnwaring, in a
letter &lt;jpted November 22, 1618,
descriltes a birthday party for
the prince of Wales, at which
"every man did bring his dish

piping hot and harnessed with
topes of sausages, ail tied in

Methodist Church Notes.
The meetings are in full .swing at
the Methodist church, with splendid
crowds in attendance. A strong ef­
fort is being put forth to form a
choir of sixty voices and it to hoped
that soon their singing will be an
outstanding feature of the meetings.
' Mr. Colgrove has been preaching
a series of sermons on the Victorious
Life, which are strong and helpful.
He has a real message tor red-blood­
ed men. Sunday night he told why
he believed In revivals in America.
If we do cot have one soon we will
be in the ^condition of Russia, where
men are eating their dead loved ones,
because they have entirely forsaken
God. We need something that will
bring church members out to prayer
meeting, children to Sunday school,
and that will rebuild broken family
altars, something that will make
Americans love God more than they
do money. Lots of people are prej­
udiced against revivals of religion,
yet they like them in business, pleas­
ure or dress. We like enthusiasm at
the ball-game—let’s put some, into
our religion.
n ,
The town has been divided Into
five districts and a group meeting for
prayer is held in each section every"
morning from ten to ten-thirty. The
meetings at the church are at seven­
thirty each evening except Sunday
night, which is at seven o'clock.
Next Sunday morning Mr. Cole­
grove will speak on Judas, the Mod­
ern Christian.

that her name became Joined with his.
In the Fifth century a Giovanni

became a popular name in Spain.
By adding a final "a." the feminine
Juana was formed, a name which
proved more acceptable than the mas­

and soon Maria was dropped entirely
and Juana became a separate name. ,
Spain is fond of endearments and di- I

It. may be that the Spanish Influ­

we must adjust ourselves to the

new conditions. Business, whether on
the farm, in the store, shop, bank or
pulpit, is largely what we make it We
are a resourceful people and in the best
country, where individual effort counts.
Times are not entirely satisfactory but
are getting better every day, and we all
can help. I am determined to do my
share by buying as low as I can and
selling as low as quality goods will per­
mit,' asking but a very- small profit in
order to help all I can.

Goodbye 1921, good morning 1922. We
are “with you” for better times.

Hit the pace In January. Keep it
up through February. By that time
you should have the habit, and 1922
will be a prosperous year for you.

job has started the new year wrong.
But it is not too late to remedy the
condition, if he will get a move on.
We beard the other day of a man
who has not worked during the past
year because he was unable to get
a job at JJb trade. We'd be inclined
to trade that trade off and get a plain

HETTY.
HE simple, little name of Het­
ty, suggestive of pleasant homaly domesticity, has a lofty sig­
nificance. It is translated to mean “a
star." Perhaps, after all, the steady
bright insistence of the stars may
have some psychic reference to the
generally accepted conception of the
Hettys of tbe world.
Hetty is In reality the endearing
diminutive given to the more digni­
fied Hester, but so coldly austere is
tbe latter name that Hetty has come
to be bestowed In baptism with com­
pleted disregard for its proper pred­
ecessor.
Hetty came Into existence by a rath­
er complicated evolution through sev­
eral languages. Tbe fair daughter of
tbe tribe of Benjamin whose royalty
Insured her peoples' safety, was called
Atossa. Her name in the Persian lan­
guage — quite unpronouncable — was
combined with the Latin word for star
“stella” and from the union, came the
modern estrejla. In the Septuaglnt,
the Romans make this word Hesters
or Esthers.
In England, the “a" was dropped and
Hester and Esther wer. bestowed as
feminine names. The latter became Es­
sie when the inevitable diminutive was
forthcoming, and Hester soon gave
place to Hetty, though the original
form was usually preserved on the
church Registers. It was for America
to gayly discard the proper appellative
and substitute Hetty for all occasions.
Hetty's talismanlc stone is the tur­
quoise. which promises her steadfast
friends, true love, and freedom from
danger. If she sees the new moon re­
flected in the stone, she will have rare
good luck. Saturday is her lucky day
and five her lucky number.

ATALIE is another holy name,
originally coming from the Latin
title of “Dies Natalis,” the birth­
day of our Lord. The word Natalie
has furnished the title of the feast
to all the Romance portion of Eu­
rope.
France made the word Noel from it,
meaning Christmas, and soon Noel
became a Christian name there. In
Italy it appeared as Natale. Spain
and Portugal used the name Natal.
There is a feast celebrated on the
8th of September by the Greek church
as the festival day of St Natalia, the
devoted wife who attended her husand, St Adrian, in his martyrdom.
He Is the same Adrian whose relics
filled the Netherlands and whose name
became celebrated in the West where
his wife Natalia was long neglected.
The East, however, reversed the arrnngement and Natalia Is popular
there, while her husband is forgotten.
Natalia was one of the favored
Greek Christian names. Russia adopt­
ed her and, adding the usual con­
sonants of Its language, calls her
Nhtalija, Nataschenka, and Natascha.
The first of the three names is ex­
tremely popular there today, or until
the Bolslievlkl came Into power and
withdrew the attention of etymologists
from the study of feminine names. ’
France is snld to have secured
Natalie from Russia, though there is
record of a Natalie at Cambral In
1212. England preferred Natalie to
any of the other forms, rejecting
Natalia as too Latin in Its influence.
Whether American Natalies are rep
resentative of tbe English, or taken
direct from France, is a mutter of
personal preference.
The pearl of purity (s Natalie's
tallsnmnlc gem. It promises good
fortune for its wearer and makes her'
gentle, kind, and lovable. Thursday
Is her lucky day and 4 her lucky
number.

The many thousands of seekers for
homes in Vienna have organized to get
them. Complaining that the govern­
ment bureau formulated for tills pur­
pose Is impotent, members of the so­
ciety have appointed agents to find all
▼avast premises and all residential
property not containing the maximum
humber of occupants and to threaten
to use force to secure lodgings. They
have published a list of such places
■nd demand they be handed over.

One or two of our subscribers say

usually a better column right close

Profanfty Is greatly to be deplored.
Good old Horace Greeley once remark­
ed that there was absolutely no ex­
cuse for profanity, under any cir­
cumstances, anywhere under tbe
broad canopy of heaven—outside ot a
printing office." Yet the mantle of
charity might easily be extended to
cover Dell Waite’s fall from -grace,
when he returned homo from his trip
south and found out that during his
absence the water pipes in his house
had frozen and burst, flooding his
beautiful home with water.

Nobody told us that Dell cussed a
bit. but it he didn't he's all right for
a through trip inside the pearly gates.

Ever notice how shaky it makes a
fellow to handle heavy weights when
he isn’t accustomed to it? Heard a
fellow say Von Furniss needed more
exercise to harden his muscles so he
could hang to things and not let go
his grip at the critical moment. Had
more or less trouble all week, we un­
derstand, and then wound up on,Sun­
day by dropping the collection plate
at church and spilling the sheckles
all over the floor. Advico to Von:
Get Walter Camp's "Dally Dozen”
and follow instructions religiously.

USTARDS of different flavors are
always good desserts for the chil­
dren «i?d are usually well liked
by them. One egg to a cupful of
milk and two tablespoonfuls of sugar
or less will make a thin custard which
will be sufficient for two small .cups.
If the custard Is desired thicker, two
eggs to one cupful of milk will make
a custard which will mold. Of course,
when food value is considered, the more
egg the more nutriment
Cup custards are more attractive In
appearance If decorated In some form.
A dot of jelly or jelly cut In cubes, a
candled, cranberry or cherry, or any
bright preserved fruit Is always fes­
tive, and a spoonful of nuts adds to
its food value.
Care should be taken in the prepara­
tion of a custard. If baked, place the
custards In a dish of water and watch
carefully not to overbake as they be­
come coarse and tough. A baked cus­
tard has a finer flavor titan boiled, and
Is particularly good with tart berries.
Nutmeg, cinnamon, orange rind,
lemon, maple or caramel, are all good
flavors, as well as chocolate and cocoa.
Chocolate grated over the top, or
cocoa sprinkled lightly over the cus­
tards adds to its food value. A pinch
of salt Is needed In all custards, other­
wise, they are flat In taste. An orange
flavored custard Is delicious served
with a spoonful of orange marmalade'
on top.

SYSTEM,

For Curing and Smoking Meats

Use the “Wright” Method

-

Wright’s Smoke
Is a liquid preparation made by distilling wood for smoking all ■
kinds of meats by simply applying to meat with a brush. One ■
bottle will smoke a barrel of meat cheaper; better and quicker than £
the old way, and give it the same smoke flavor.

Wright’s Ham Pickle
Is a preparation for salting, pickling and sugar-curing all kinds of ■
meats. It is composed of a number of the best meat preservatives ■
and, added to salt in right proportion, makes the be* balanced J
cur^ for meat that can be produced.

£

Both of these preparations are guaranteed to give
absolute satisfaction or your money refunded.

INFLUENZY
If you should take the influenzy, in spite of all precautions wise,
don’t lose yer head In useless frenzy, nor fill the air with dismal cries.
Don’t rant an' rave in wild distraction, an’ wring yer hands an’ tear
yer hair. Of course it's time fer Instant action, but not the time ter fool
despair. . . . The Influenzy can be throttled, which should be did the
quickest way; don’t cram yer hide with dope that’s bottled or stuff that
"cures you in a day.” But, seek yer couch with heavy klver, an' wrap
yerseif from top to toe; a red-hot stove-lid on yer liver will sweat you
in a day os so. . . . Or, soak yer feet in bilin' water, an’ drink a quart
of pepper tea, so hot you couldn't stand it hotter—there's everything in
sweatin' free. . .But, If, In spite of my instruction, you keep on getlln'
wusa an' wuss, we can't escape the sound deduction, that death must
come to all of us!
Suspended Animation.
Insects which spend most of their
lives in a torpid or seml-torpld con­
dition are seldom Injured and never
killed by being frozen. There are
numerous Instances of travelers In
mountain regions having found bee­
tles nutl butterflies above the snow
line which were stiff, frozen and ap­
parently dead. When curried down to
the wanner air in the valley, however,
they revived In a very short time.

Birds Like Old Homes.
Birds have In common with num the
“homing Instinct," although of course
In man the instinct is not so highly
developed. Just how Mr. and Mrs.
Bird on their return to the north from
their winter In the south find their old
nests each spring is not known. Their
ability to locate the “old home" Is
simply a part of their homing instinct.
Without charts or compasses to point
the way the birds fly unerringly to
their old haunts each spring.

Saw Value of Fortifications.
Jolnr Ziska, a famous leader of the
Hussite party In Bohemia, gained the
title of “father of the modem art of
fortification.” In 1420 he took up a
strong position near Prague on an emi­

UNCLE SAM’S WOMEN CHIEFS

FARM OPPORTUNITIES
AM constantly in receipt of letters
from women tired of office work
who ask what chance they would
have in investing their savings in a
small farm. They- waut*a home, they
want to be their own masters, they
long for the country after years of
confining labor at a desk.
Success in tanning requires train­
ing and experience us well as a wish
for that type of work. A good busi­
ness training and Initiative are excel­
lent As stock th trade, but there should
be more than that. Fanning Is no easy
Job.
Two young women tell me that they
are making money with a small sheep
farm. There Is plenty of demand both
for the wool and the meat. But these
two wotneD also run an apiary, mar­
keting their honey, in a distinctive
package. It is the finest honey, and
they charge a high price for it. They
have worked up a trade with a list of
private purchasers, and sell through
the mail.
The thing Is to have only the very
highest class of produce.,- to charge
high for it, to put it into attractive
and striking packages that are un ad­
vertisement in themselves, and to sell
direct to the consumer. With the par­
cel post this Is possible. We find it
better to specialize In several thing*
rather than In one. Establish a mar­
ket for one of your items and you es­
tablish it for all?
This sounds like good talk, nnd 1
recommend It to my readers who may
be thinking of turning to the farm as
a source of Income.

when these hordes burst Into
Europe during the Thirteenth
century nnd swept everything
before them.
Many persons
claimed that the ravages of the
invading cavalry constituted a
fulfillment of the prophecy in
the ninth chapter of Revelation
concerning the opening of the
bottomless pit and the loosing of
the inhabitants of the Infernal
reiclons. From this lielief en­
sued the change of their name
from “Taters" to ‘Tartars,” the
latter being an outgrowth of
Tartarus, or hell, whence these
Implacable hordes were sup­
posed to have come.
The bravery of the Invaders,
together with their stole disre­
gard for pain and the manner In
which they turned upon their
guards when captured, also gave
rise to the expression, “catch a
Tartar" or *b&lt; caught a Tartar."
which is in use to this day as
a synonym for being taken by
surprise, particularly when a
person thinks that he has made
an easy conquest

BRING OUT THE BRAINS.
Our federal reserve board has kept
this country from passing through
a disastrous panic during the past
two years. Il will prevent others in
the future, for it&gt; is the safety valve
to our monetary and banking sys­
tems.
An international body of this char­
acter, organized by the great finan­
cial institutions of the various coun­
tries, would do more to readjust the
shattered and tottering monetary
system of the old world than all oth­
er elements combined.
If Europe will employ its brains
along these lines and go to work the
threatened collapse can be averted,
and stability and prosperity will event­
ually return.
Insisting upon the cancellation of
war debts Is childish and will avail
them nothing.
A raid on a chicken coop was made
recently by Frank N. Green, a chief
Inspector with the public safety de­
partment, when he visited the home
of Chris Baum near Springport look­
ing for home brew which Baum was
said to be selling. Four quarts of
liquor, probably, “old hen,” were dis­
covered hidden between the walls In
the chicken coop. It is claimed that
Baum sold the stuff for $4 a pint.—

The great John Henry Newman,
afterwards cardinal, in discussing “the
Idea of a university” gave a consid­
erable part of his time to the effort .to
define a "gentleman."
He, of course, had no more sym­
pathy than any American would have
with the view, not uncommon in parts
of Europe, that a "gentleman" Is a
man who has no profession or busi­
ness; who has nothing to do but noth­
ing.
*
In olden days n "gentleman" was
supposed to be like Bayard, "without
fear and without reproach; kind to
women and children; gentle In peace
and careless of his own safety when
duty called him."

Daniel Webster was entertained at
the Jockey club in Richmond on a
famous occasion. He surprised his
hosts by saying that, though born in
New Hampshire and a senator from
Massachusetts, he could give three
good reasons why he could claim to
l»e a “Southern Gentleman.” And he
gave these amid a storm of laughter.
In fact. It is only In the army and
the navy tliat the word "gentleman’’
survives in a tec' •al sense. For
“conduct unbecomh an officer and a
gentleman" Is the .-ound for one of.
the most serious charges that can be
brought against anybody who holds a
commission.

I Feel 30 wise

spreader we have ever offered to you.

It Is an expression that Americans
have been shy of from the earliest
days, partly because It conveyed asuggestion of class distinction In a
country that has no "classes" and
partly because the word was hard to
define even In countries where It
was In common use.
There Is no doubt that in the
strictest sense of the expression,
George Washington, Thomas Jefferson
and John Adams were "gentlemen."
Yet there can be equally little doubt
that the first would have corrected
anybody who defined him In that way
by saying that he was a soldier, while
the other illustrious two would have
preferred to be called statesmen.
As for Benjamin Franklin, if any­
body had called him a gentleman, he
would have remarked probably that
he preferred to be a printer.

"Don't move. Daddy.” I cautioned,
and then groped my way along the
wall and climbed to the top of our
earth-sack breastwork at a point which
I guessed to be under the nearest of
the two windows.
When I drew myself up and tried to
thrust a hand through the opening
the mysterious darkness was ex­
plained. The window embrasures were
stopped up. both of them, on the out­
side by something tliat felt like a
heavy canvas curtain, though how the
curtain was held In place I could not
determine. But It was firmly braced
in some way. With all the purchase
I could get—which wasn’t much—I
couldn’t dislodge it or push it aside.

I told Daddy what I had found.

We were not kept very long in doubt

to be. With the cessation of the tom­
tom clatter the collie had grown curi­
ously reatlees. We couldn't see him,
but we could hear him running from

and occasionally giving a whining

THE DELIVERY BOY SAYS

When General Pershing once inspectod an artillery outfit of col­
ored negro soldiers in France he was
struck by the snappy neatness and
soldiery bearing of one particularly
dusky member of a gun team.
"What are your duties, soldier?”
queried the commander in chief of
the artilleryman, who stood like a
statute beside the French Solxante
Quinze.

Two commuters were coming to
town one morning. "Say, Bill," said
one, "What’s good to kill slugs?
They are eating up, all my radishes."
"Well", said teh other, "get a
couple of bags of salt and sprinkle
in between the rows." ’
.
The next morning the two met
again.
"How did the salt work?" Bill
asked.
"Why, you poor fish," replied the
other, ’’when I went out to look at
the garden this morning, the slugs
were pulling upthe radishes, dipping
them tn the salt and eating them."

LIST YOUR AUCTION

O ONE has any good excuse for
not being able to make Intro­
ductions easily and In good form.
It Is simply a matter of knowing the
right form and then in a little prac­
tice. It is an act that requires no
originality and no special talent. But
there are a lot of people neverthe­
less, who always do bungle an •intro­
duction. and this for the simple reason
that they do not give tbe subject suf­
ficient thought or do not trouble
themselves to look up the right way
to do It
&gt;
The-other day I observed a stalwart
young corporal, proud to have his
cheery-faced little mother visiting him,
and eager to Introduce her to his
friends.
“Mother, meet Sergeant Jones,” lie
said hs one of his friends approached,
and again. “Smith, know my mother."

on the occasion it probably dldnt
make much difference how the Intro­
duction was made. But the form was
far from courteous.
In the first place a man should al­
ways present or introduce his men
friends to his mother, or any other
woman, and he should use a form of
introduction that shows that he Is
making the Introduction In this '?ay.
Moreover the abrupt manner of say­
ing simply, “Meet Mr. Brown,” or
“Know my friend Jones.” which has
recently become so popular is reuhy
too afirupt to be In good form for any
purpose save possibly for men to in­
troduce men to each other In a pure­
ly business connection. It should
never be used in Introducing women.
The right way for the young soldier
to have gone about tt would have
been to say. “Mother, I want to pre­

The Crash Came Almost Immediately,
not any whatsover, as Daddy Hiram
would have said. But at the critical
point in its flight the hurtling thing
"ticked" the top of the hoist frame
and its downward course was deflect­
ed the needed bair's-breadth. causing
It to come down beyond the machin­
ery, and not on our side of things.
Nevertheless, we were cowering in an­
ticipation of a blast which would rfiost
likely heave the entire machinery ag­
gregation over bodily upon us when
the explosion came.
We saw the belching cvlumn of
flame and gas going skyward beyond
the machinery barrier, taking a full
half of the roof with It. as If the blast
had come from the mouth of a gigan­
tic cannon. We were dazed and deaf­
ened by the shock, and half choked
by the fumes, but neither of us was
so far gone as not to hear distinctly a
prolonged nnd rumbling crash ’like the
thunder of a small Niagara, coming
after the smash!
“The shaft!” shrilled Daddy Hiram,
in a thin. choked voice; “it went off
down In the shaft! And. say 1—
what-all’s that we're a-listenin’ to
now 1"
If there had been a dozen of the
bombs raining down I don’t believe
the threat of them would have kept
us from bursting out of our dodge-bole
to go and see what hud happened in
the mine shaft. But before we could
determine anything more than that
the mouth of the shaft was complete­
ly hidden under a mass of wreckage,
and tliat the mysterious Niagara roar,
dwindled somewhat, but yet hollowly
audible, was still going on under the
concealing muss of broken timbers
and sheet-iron, there was a masterful
interruption. Shots, yells, shoutings
and hot curses told us that a fierce
(tattle of some kind was staging itself
Just outside of our wrecked fortress;
whereupon Daddy Hiram began paw­
ing bis way to tbe door, yelling like a
man suddenly gone dotty.
“That there’s old Ike Beasley—
dad-blame bls old hide!” he chlttered.
“There ain’t nary ’nother man in the
Tlmanyonls ’at can cuss like that.
He's come with a posse, and they’re
layln’ out Charley Bullerton’s crowd I”
There was a fine little tableau
spreading Itself out for us when we
had clambered over the wreckage and
had withdrawn the wooden bar and
flung the door wide. Daddy Hiram
had called the turn and named the
trump. Th® large, desperadolsh-looking man who had once Interviewed me
nt Angels, and a little later had
paused in his combing of the moun•i.-’na In search of me to usurp my
. at tbe Twomhlys’ breakfast ta»&gt; whiskered giant, with a
goodlsh bunch of followers—barfl­
boll til to a man. they looked to be—
had surrounded a fair half of tbe
would-be “Jumpers" nnd were hand­
cuffing them with a celerity that was
truly admirable. And Beasley, him­
self, square-Jawed and peremptory,
was shoving Bullerton up against the
side of the shaft-house, snapping the
irons upon his wrists and counseling
him, wit)&gt; choice epithets intermin­
gled, to save up his troubles and tell
them to the Judge.
As we emerged from our wrecked
fortress, other members of the posse
were scattering to round up the out­
lying bomb-throwers, who had appar­
ently taken to the tall timber in a
panic-stricken effort to escape. Down
on tbe bench below there were horses
and horse-holders; and among the
horses one whose boyish-looking rider
wm just slipping from the saddle.
While I was wondering vaguely why
tbe Angels town marshal had let a
mere boy come along on such a battle
errand, the boyish figure ran up the
road and darted in among us to fling
itself into Daddy Hiram's arms, gur­
gling and half crying and begging to
be toid if he wm hurt.
I didn’t know at the time bow much
or how little th* big marshal knew nt
the various and muddled involvements
which were climaxing right there in
the early morning sunshine on the old
Cinnabar dump head; but 1 do know

them promptly hustled down stage

on I was merely waiting for my cue.

the boy who wasn’t a boy slipped
from Daddy’s arms and faced me.

CHAPTER XVlil.

The Hold-Up.
Beesley left me sitting on the door­
step—I’ve a notion he bad run out of
handcuffs, else he might have dapped
a pair of them on me—while he start­
ed his posse down to Atropla with the
captured raiders and their leader.
When he came back we took time.

wrought and beyond that to dig Into

exploded in the shaft had wrought a

Now that the farmers are stirring,
jhlnklng. and uniting as never before
to eradicate these Inequalities, they
are -subjected to stern economic lec­
tures, and are met with the accusation
that they' are demanding, and nre tbe
recipients of, special privileges. Let
u» see what privileges the government
has conferred on the farmers. Much
baa been made of Section 0 of the
Clayton Anti-Trust Act, which pur
ported tn permit them to combine with
Immunity, under certain conditions.
Admitting that nominally. this ex
emptlnn was in the nature of a special
privilege.—though I think It was so in
appearance rather than In fact.—we
.find that the courts have nullified It
by Judicial Interpretation. Why should
not the farmers be permitted to ac­
complish by co-operative methods what
other businesses are already doing by
co-operation In the form of Incorpora
tlon? If it be proper for men to form,
by fusion of existing corporations or
otherwise, a corporation that controls
tbe entire production of a commodity
or a large part of it. why Is It not
proper for a group "f fanners to unite
for the marketing of their common
products, either'In one or In several
selling agencies? Why should It be
right for a hundred tlmuwinJ corporate

Several Nashville boys who have
wireless receiving epparatus __
are
having great times listening in on re­
ports and music being "broadcasted”
by various radio stations in the
country. Roe Tuttle, John Wotring,
Gaylord Wotring and Ellis Gutchess
have receiving stations set up at their
homes, over which they receive al­
most nightly various reports from De­
troit, Chicago, East Pittsburgh and
other places. They get daily govern­
ment market reports, weather re­
ports, and late news bulletins. Ev­
ery evening a musical program is
sent out by wireless from Chicago by
the Westinghouse company, while fre­
quently lectures or sermons may be
heard, as well as the regular pro­
grams.
The apparatus necessary is com­
paratively stipple and inexpensive. If
purchased outright, but the local
boys have made much of their appar­
atus themselves, purchasing only
what they were unable to construct.
The most difficult part of the con­
struction is the erection of the an­
tennae and the battery outfit, and it
Is certainly ivorth all the time and
trouble it takes to install a receiving
station. Weather ‘or atmospheric
conditions of course affect the ser­
vice more or less, but when every­
thing is working right every detail
of the music may be plainly heard,
and the various reports come in as
clearly as you can bear your ndxtdoor neighbor over the telephone.
Several of the boys plan installing
amplifiers, which will enable all the
people in the receiving room to hear.
Emory Morris and Nelson Brumm
are planning on installing stations
as soon as they can get their orders
for material filled, and a'number of
others will undoubtedly soon have
outfits.

WHAT ABOUT OUR SCHOOLS?
Realizing how few of dur citizens
and taxpayers really know much of
anything about actual conditions in
the public schools. The News has ar­
ranged with Superintendent R. E.
Chapman to write a series of articles,
the flrat one of which appears in The
News this week. Other articles will
follow from time to time.
Every citizen of the village should
read every one of these articles, con­
sider them carefully from ajl angles,
and thereby become conversant with
conditions as they actually are.
There- is no question that Nash­
ville’s most pressing civic need right
now is more room for the schools.
The present building, while a good
one, is much too small for the num­
ber of pupils it has to provide ac­
commodations for. Teachers abd
students are handicapped in their
work by lack of room. In some way
or other, more room must be provid­
ed. It remains for the people of the
district to decide what is to be done,
and they should be studying the situ­
ation, In order to be able to decide
Intelligently.
We urge you to read Mr. Chap­
man's article in this issue, and those
which will appear in subsequent is­
sues. and give them the careful con­
sideration they deserve.
Furthermore our columns are op­
en at. any and all times to any citi­
zen of the district who feels that he
has anything to say In this important
matter. A full and free discussion
of Nashville's school needs can only
prove beneficial and the columns of
The News are an open forum for
such a discussion.
Do we need a new school build­
ing?
How large a building is needed?
Shall it contain an auditorium?
A gymnasium?
Where should It be located?
These are some ot the many ques­
tions whlbh^Nashville will be called
upon to answer, and they can only
be answered intelligently when we
have studied the situation carefully
and from all angles.

Something to
Think About
By F. A. WALKER
OSE TH1XO at a time
HE successful worker, whose
achievements are greatest at rhe
end of the day, is he or she who
does but one thing at a time, end re­
fuses to leave it until it is finished.
Such a worker never vacillates
lie tween one duty and another.
There is no undue confusion in the
mind by wavering.
By putting off the seemingly dif­
ficult task for the easier.
Everything is taken up as Jt
comes, completed In every detail,
ready for the scan of the master at
the top.
The worker who flits from pillar
to post, starts in one direction and
suddenly sets his face In another,
never really gets anywhere.
He Is lacking of stability, and at
the end of tiie year he is about where
he began, with no prospect of ad­
vancement and no hope of improve­
ment. Indeed, In spite of his fever­
ish, hurried efforts, he is slipping
down grade.
Doing the job In hand and sticking
to it until tt Is done to the very
end is the only way to achieve sue-

Train yourself to do this. In a lit­
tle while you will find that you are
getting speed with less friction. There
will be no more irritability and lassi­
tude at the end of the day.
Instead of going home at night in
an 111 humor, with every nerve
tingling and on edge, you will find
that your hraln is clear and your
thoughts at rest.
Tills, you will discover later, is
because of the orderly method adopt
ed of taking up but one subject at
a time and not letting it go until yov
have no further .use for it.

One of the foremost merchants ol
New York, confronted with thousands
of serious questions every day, ha*
formed the habit of returning to his
home at night as care-free as a school
boy during vacation season.
When he leaves his desk, he leaves
his perplexities.
The next morning he conies in
bright-eyed, light-hearted, eager to get
In the fray.
If by chance the first encounter
should happen to be troublesome, he
dispenses with It before proceeding
to another.

“Let’s have It out, Jeanie," I said;

and yet Ute only way If 1 was to go on
remembering that she belonged to an­
other man. "We ran at least be good

“No," she returned, with a queer lit­

It was awkward fur both of us,
standing there before the open cabin
door, and I pointed to the bench where
Daddy Hlrum was wont to smoke bis

“Won't you sit down until we can
sort of flail It out?”.I begged.
“It’s no use, whatever.’’ she object­
ed ; nevertheless, she did sit down and
let me sit beside her.
“I know Just how distressed you
must be," 1 begun, "and perhaps I can
lift a bit of the load from your shoul­
ders. There will be no legal steps
taken against your—against Charles
BuHerton."
“Thank you," she said; Just as'short
ns that.
"And that isn’t all," 1 went on. “Aft­
er we get Into the ore and have some
real money to show for it. I’m going
to make over a share in the Cinnabar
to your father and put him in a posi­
tion to do the right thing by you When
you marry. And he’ll do It; you know
he’ll do It."
“How kind I" she murmured, look­
ing straight out in front of her.
“It Isn’t kindness; Its bare justice.
Between you, you two have saved my
legacy for me."
"I wish, now. It hadn’t been saved!"
she exclaimed, as vindictively as you
please.
Traly. 1 thought, the ways at women
are past finding out; or at least the
way of a maid with a man Is.
“Can’t I say anything at all without
putting my foot Into it?" I asked in
despair. ‘You break a man’s back

"You have committed the unpardon­

wonder that Miss Randle took your

.
I wasn’t going to let the talk shift
to Lisette; not if I knew It, and could
help It.
“What is the unpardonable sin?" I
asked.
"To misunderstand: to think a per­
son capable of a thing when a person

that a person is guilty—oh”—with a
little stamp of her foot—“I can’t bear
to talk about It!"
I guess it’s a part of a man’s equip­
ment to be dense and sort of stupid—
in bls dealings with women, I mean.
Slowly, so slowly that I thought the
catch would never snap and hold, my
fool mind crept back along the line,
searching blindly for the point at

Ed. Mayo has cut down about halt
the maple trees surrounding his
home between Sherman and Maple
streets, and still has plenty left. It
was one of the places about town
where the trees were too thick. There
Is a. section of Washington street
where Judicious thinning would make
a marked improvement. It seems a
shame to cut down a fine shade tree,
but when they are so thick that the
grass will not grow, they should be
thinned. There should be a vigor­
ous campaign this spring, too, to trim
up shade trees all over town. It
would vastly improve the appearance
of many sections of the village.
Better times are in view for the
farmers, according to leading au­

thorities on agricultural economics.
Messages from Secretary of Agricul­
ture 'H. C. Wallace and David Fri­
day. President-elect of the M. A. C..
delivered to the Farmers' Week gath­
erings conveyed the prophecy that
agriculture had passed the worst
stage of its depression "and that
gradual improvement would be
noted during the coming season. They
emphasized the fact that no im­
mediate return of highly prosperous
conditions could be reasonably ex­
pected. but expressed the opinion
that next season’s prices of farm
products and the prices of things the
farmer buys would be more nearly
balanced.

Every day in school pays tbe child
19.00.
Here is the proof, based on - the
wage scale of 1913:
Uneducated laborers earn on the
average 8500 per year for forty
years, a total of 820,000. .
High school graduates earn on the
average 81,000 per year for forty
yean, a total of 840,000.
This education required twelve
years of school of 180 days each, a
total of 2,160 days in school.
If 2,160 day* at school add 820,­
000 to the Income for life, then each
day at school adds 89.25.
The child that stays out of school
to earn less than 89.00 a day is losing
money—not making money.
These figures are based on an in­
vestigation made by Dr. A. Caswell
Ellis of the University of Texas, at
the request of the U.‘B. Bureau of
Education.

TAKE A LOOK AT THE DATE.
Just stop reading long enough to
take a glance at the date after your
name On the paper, will you please?
Thank ybu.
If that date happens to be Janu­
ary 22. you have forgotten some­
thing. If it says any old month 21,
you have overlooked something. If
it says Feb. 22 or Mar. 22. it's just
a gentle reminder that there is some­
thing you ought to look after. You
see, there's just 279 of you Jan. 22
fellows, to say nothing of the fellows
who are Oct. 22 or Nov. 22 or Dec.
22, and that means quite a bunch
of money that ought to be in our
possession, to help pay printers, buy
paper and ink. etc. Please don't put
us to the extra work and expense of
sending out personal statements.
It's just a little matter, of course,
but with present heavy expense* for
everything that goes into making a
newspaper today, It means a lot to
us. That's right: we just knew you
would come across when we called
your attention to it. Thank you.

Translations of Poe.
... It apjyears from the biography
appended to the definitive edition of
Poe that between 1890 and 1885 there
were made at least ten translations of
his works In various foreign lan­
guages. What could have brought
about such a remarkable result? In
a word. It must be Poe’s unique genius
—his Intense originality, which has
hardly been paralleled In literary, his­

charm of manner, which appeals not
simply to men of one particular clime
or country, but to all men everywhere.

HAVE A CRACKER
RACKERS are the ever-readystandby of the “up-to-the-minute” house­
wife. They will keep indefinitely
If kept dry and air-tight. If they
do soften—five minutes in a hot oven
will crisp them again as good as
fresh ones. Any kind of crackers,
sweet, graham, oatmeal or ginger may
be used for a dainty sandwich to be
served with a cup of tea or a re­
freshing drink. An old-fashioned dish
nnd one good for an invalid or a
child Is cracker soup. Toast the
crackers until brown, spread with
butter, sprinkle with n little sugar
and pour over hot milk.
A sweet cracker put together with
marmnlnde. Jelly, cream cheese, nuts
or any other good filling makes a good
substitute for cake.

C

Graham Cracker Pudding.
Take four tablespoonfuls of butter,
add one-half cupful of sugar. one-half.
tenRpoonful of vanilla, the yolk of an
egg ond a pinch of salt, mix well, then
add three cupfuls of finely rolled gra­
ham crackers, three-fourths of a cup­
ful of milk, one nnd one-half tea­ I
spoonfuls of baking powder; lastly
fold in the well-beaten egg white, add
one-half cupful of dates cut In bits,
with the stones removed. Steam for
‘ ~
one and one-half Jtours. S rve with n
hard sauce or whipped cream.
Cheese and Cracker Supper Dish,
Spread milk crackers with butter
and cover with finely minced or
grated cheese; place in a baking dish
until enough have been prepared to
sene the family. Cover with a cus­
tard, using two eggs to a pint of
milk, one-eighth of a tea«poonful of
salt and a generous sprinkling of pap­
rika over all. Bake in a moderate
oven until the custard Is set. Do
not overcook or the cheese will be
stringy. Serve hot from the baking
dish. '
Tomato English Monkey.
Take one and one-fourth cupfuls of
cracker cwimbs, two tablespoonfuls of
butter and three-fourths of a cupful
of milk. Bent two eggs, add salt, pep­
per, a pinch of soda, one and one-third
cupfuls of cheese; add to the scalded
milk. When the cheese has melted
add three-fourths of a cupful of to­
mato strained, stirring until well
mixed. Sene on hot toasted crackers.

Kind

of interest

SK the man of affairs what he Is
interested In and he will prob­
ably tell you:
"Everything."
He is interested lne everything, and
he ought to be.
But he also is especially Interested
in some one thing, which is why he
Is a man of affairs.
A very Important editor is so ab­
sorbed In the study of the world-and
what Is going &lt;»n In It, that In work­
time or playtime he is engaged in its
study.
But he Is especially interested in
men nnd women. And specializing in
this specialty he Is interested in what
they like to read.
He is so deeply interested In this,
that he never meets a man or woman
that he does not find out. tn some
fashion or other, what It is that at­
tracts their attention in newspapers
and magazines.
The results of the several hundred
thousand questions he has asked are
carefully put awsy In hls brain, and
when he gets out a number of the
publication he directs. It is always
bought and read by a very large num­
ber of people.
To have a live personal Interest la
all created things is necessary to
every well-educated and active man.
If you sat at a dinner next to John
D. Rockefeller you could get few rises
out of him by discussing the theory
of relativity. But If you began to
talk of how to give away money In­
telligently. which is hls special In­
terest just dow. you would probably
hear something of much value.
Golf, music and many other tilings
are fine interests to have, but the one
Interest you need most of all con­
cerns your business or your profes­
sion.
If that is paramount, and you give
it enoug*h intelligent thought, you wiU
prosper. If you “scatter” too much
you will not.

Amuses us sometimes tohearpeople
of the village criticizing the "retired
farmers" for being opposed to pub­
lic improvements. Facts are, if you
will study the situation a bit, you
will find that many of the retired
farmers are as progressive and as
favorable to public improvements as
any of us. while on the other hand
some of the most rabid of tbe knock­
ers on public improvements are re­
tired business men and others who
have lived in the village for many
years, and some of them have never
been farmery Many farmers move
to Nashville when they get ready to
retire from active work on the farm,
for the very reason that Nashville is
progressive, has good schools, good
churches, water works, sewers, paved
streets, electric lights, adequate fire
protection, beautiful parks, beauti­
fully shaded and well-kept streets,and
the other things that make a town
desirable as a home.
Not many
of them are willing to move to a town
which has none of these improve­
ments. They like Nashville just as
it is, and they don't want it to slip
back Into the backwoods class. On
the other hand, some of the other
people surely set them a bad example
by opposing everything that will add
a dollar to taxes, no matter how
necessary it may be. How well we
remember how bitter a fight was
made by those opposed to the water
works at the time that vote was tak­
en, more than 25 years ago. We
were "going to saddle a debt on the
village that our children’s children
would never live long enough to
pay." Yet the water works are all
paid for. and since that time we have
put in a splendid sewerage system,
have equipped tbp village with a
thorough electrip lighting system,
have built a new school house in
place of the one -that burned, have
bought and equipped several beauti­
ful parks, have maintained our
streets in good shape, have paved
Main street with brick, have installed
a modern combination motor fire
truck, and the only Indebtedness
against the village today Is the $18,­
000 worth of paving bonds.
Real­
ly. it's the right kind ot a town,
when you come to look It over, and
none of us would willingly have any
of these improvements taken away*
from us. It’s a town well worth liv­
ing in. and we ought to be pretty well
pleased with it.
Anyway, if you want to find fault,
don’t find it with the "retired farm­
ers." Wish we had a lot more of
them like some that we already
have.

If you want to criticize anybody,
place the criticism where it really
and properly belongs. And that’s
easy to do.
Billy Smith had a birthday Mon­
day, and celebrated it by spending
half the day in sawing and splitting
wood, thus demonstrating the truth
of his claim that he is “seventy years
young" instead of seventy years old.
He attended the meeting of the
Pythian Sisters that evening, where
he let it be known that he was hav­
ing a birthday. Foolish thing to
do. Bure thing what the other fel­
lows there would do for the edificatiofi of their "sisters" before the eve­
ning was over. Billy realized It, too,
but too late, for during a recess when
he noticed some of the other he sis­
ters edging his way bp beat it for the
exit, but a stalwart sister blocked his
way and the gang got him. Half a
dozen pairs of willing hands were
laid on effectively in tbe place made
for "the laying on of bands" and tbe
full count of seventy, with one to
grow on, was administered. It is re­
ported that Billy lost the stairway
trying to get up to the hall earlier
in the evening, and it would have
been better for Billy had it remain­
ed lost;

A VETERAN’S VIEWPOINT.

Opposed to the Bonus.
illustrating a viewpoint which is
taken by many of the ex-service men
of the recent world war. we clip the
following from the Michigan Trades­
man of last week. It is a praise­
worthy attitude, illustrating a high
degree of real patriotism. We call
this Ackerman boy about as near to
"100 percent American” as they
make them.
•
' Detroit. Feb. 27.—I have been
reading all the arguments for the
soldiers' bonus and expected to find
some real reasons why it should be
paid. However, I hi;-ve seen nothing
so far that resembles a good argu­
ment. The soldiers of tbe Great War
except those who were wounded, gass­
ed or disabled in any way whatso­
ever while they were In the service
do not deserve any bonus. The
claim Is that the soldiers do not want
to be mpde objects of charity. Well,
then, why all ibis cry for a bonus?
Ah, 1 forget! The Government is go­
ing to pay it, and it is legitimate to
skin the government out ot every­
thing we can. We raise the money
by soaking the rich. We fail to for­
get that they are investing their
money In tax exempt bonds instead
of factories and other enterprises
that would give us poor, abused sol­
diers jobs, to say nothing of giving
tbe government more income.
We fail to realize that every time
taxes are Increased for lhe so-called
rich'v it is the poor people who pay
the bill, and a little more besides, for
every time a manufacturer, whole­
saler or retailer pays the tax he
adds It to the cost of the article be
is selling and then adds a little profit
for good luck.
There is nothing In lhe Constitu­
tion that 1 know of that says that
if a man once fights for his country
the government will support him for
the rest of his life. We were paid
130 a month while we were in the
army, with an increase tor overseas
service, and that was enough, judg­
ing from the size of the pots in the
poker and crap games that were in
session whenever the men had a tew
minutes to spare. Just toecause the
infamous Gompers influenced his la­
bor union dupes to take advantage
of the situation and plunder the peo­
ple unmercifully during the war, is
there any reason why we should
make bad conditions worse?
I will be entitled to a bonus if the
bill is passed, but 1 possess one vote
that will never be cast for the graft­
ing politician who votes for the bill.
1 am not the only one who feels that
way either. The other day 1 had
luncheon with some friends, all ot
whom had spent over a year In
France and their opinion is the same
as mine, so far ar the bonus question
Is concerned.
I believe that the sick, wounded
and disabled should have everything
that will make life more interesting
and more comfortable for them, but
let the remainder of us work for a
living like other self-respecting peo­
ple do and not place ourselves in the
light of either grafters or mendi­
cants.

Put Your Shoulder
to the Wheel
Our shoulder at the Wheel of Progress will start
millions of other wheels to moving, carrying us for­
ward by sheer momentum; out of the vale of uncer­
tainty; out of the ruts that have been made by the
wheels of habit in their passing; onto the
high road that leads onward to prosperity.
We must remember that the greatness of our
nation lies not alone in our fertile fields and valleys;
our forests and factories and mines, but in our abil­
ity to co-operate with one another; in the work of
our hands and the confidence that is in our hearts.

FORTY TEARS AGO.

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO.

Karl W. Kef! was born st Grand
Rapids. Michigan. December 22. 1889
tbe son of Oscar A. and'Leota Wheel­
er Keil.
He attended the public
school* there and graduated from
high school at the age of 17. The
same year he entered the University
of Michigan aa a student In civil en­
gineering. After leaving the’ univer­
sity he held positions in various states
at physical valuation work in the rail­
road department, and prior to the
world war was employed at East
Orange, New Jersey. He bad nearly
four years service In the National
Guard and when things looked as
though we might get mixed up in the
war he began to drill raw recruitsand
here Is where he met with his first ac­
cident. One rookie who didn’t know
one end of the rifle from the other ac­
cidentally shot him in the arm, break­
ing the bone in bad shape.
While,
Karl was in the hospital the United
States went Into the war and Karl
was anxious to get ready to do hi*
share. He passed the examination at
the officers* training camp at Fort
Meyer, where his arm was broken
again. After spending a few weeks
in the hospital he asked for hl* dis­
charge, which was granted him and
he went to hi* home at Medina, New
York, where hl* parents were then
living, to stay until he was fit for ser­
vice. Then he passed the examina­
tion for the officers' training camp at
Fort Niagara, where he graduated
with tbe rank of 1st Lieutenant, and
watCent to Camp Upton, where he re­
mained until the armistice was sign­
ed. He never got over the disappoint­
ment of not being able to go over
seas with the boys.. On two occa­
sions he bad orders to prepare for
overseas duty and had hla outfit
ready, when some one else would be
sent in hi* place snd he received ordera to prepare another company at
Camp Upton. He was made a captain
and was an expert rifle and pistol *hdt.
While at Camp Upton he was made
adjutant to the Colonel, but did not
care for that position, preferring hl*
rank of captain. After the armistice
he was transferred to Washington as
adjutant and after several months of
that duty received his honorable dis­
charge, with the rank of Captain of
Reserves.
After spending several months with
his parents, he went to Arizona, where
his sister and her husband live, where
he accepted a position as civil engin­
eer with the Paradise Verge irrlgation project, and was with this com­
pany and engaged in their work at
tbe time of his accidental death.
He was a splendid type of up-standing American boy, excelling in any
work which he undertook, and was
highly regarded by his employers and
by his many friends.
The accident which resulted in his
death occurred on a narrow highway
in the hills near Yuma, Arizona. The
car In which he was riding met anoth­
er at a point too narrow for the vehi­
cles to pass. Both stopped, but the
car in which Karl was riding stop­
ped too close to the edge of the high­
way and started to tip. The occu­
pants jumped, but Karl had to jump
from the lower side of the car, which
rolled over him. crushing him so that
he died a few hours later in a ‘hoBpital at Yunu.

UNSELFISHNESS
By FLORENCE HELLISH

They went upstairs sleep}- and hnp*py. Elsie's sister, Ida. and George.
Ida's husband, had tx-en with them.
Their classmate, Agnes, had brought
her violin, add Elsie and Edna had
tried some of their old piano duets.
Elsie slipped into the guest room
find perched on the bed. She was as
pink and plump as a child, and very
sweet In her new matronly dignity.
“Oh, Edna 1 It’s lovely to have’ you
here.”
- "It’s lovely to be here, Elsie. Your
home Is exquisite, and you and Ernest
seem perfectly happy.”
.
"We are Just that,"
“And with Ida settled so near you!
They seem happy, too.”
Elsie took off her slipper and con­
sidered a crack in the toe. “I guess
they're happy, but if I were Ida, I
should be perfectly miserable."
“Why. Elsie?"
"Edna, did you see George looking
at Agnes when she was playing? He
looked as if she was something won­
derful." '
“But her playing is wonderful, El­
sie, and Agnes Is too, rather."
“I know, she isn’t exactly beautiful,
hut-she has what people call charm.
And, Edna. I think that Agnes likes
being wonderful and that she likes
George to know it.”
"But, Elsie, I don't think Ida is sen­
sitive. and isn’t George loyal to her?”
“Oh. yes!” Elsie returned, with an
imi»atient upward tilt of her chin.
“George is loyal; but think what a
career Ida has sacrificed for him, and
how" she Just breathes for him. And
then to see him looking at Agnes with
that adoring gaze, and to know It is
only loyalty and duty that holds him
to Ida! Edna, if I should ever see
Ernest looking at anybody with such
an expression as George had tonight,
it would break my heart. You saw him
look at her?”
“Perhaps I did once,” Edna admit­
ted.
"You went to the opera, Edna, when
you were staying with the Vlntons.
Tell us about It.”
Edna leaned back luxuriously, and
talked as only Edna could talk. Edna
could not see Ernest from where she
sat, but raising her eyes to the mirror
above the mantel, she saw his reflec­
tion.
Elsie came into Edna's room again.
She was pale and a little sad, but very
sweet and gentle.
“You were wonderful tonight, dear.”
she said, wistfully, as site kissed Edna.
“You don't try to be, but you are.”
For a long time Edna sat staring at
a litle opal brooch she Lad unfastened
from ner collar.
“Ernest didn't mean anything.”
She turned the brooch and absently
watched the play of colors in the lamp­
light.
“Who would guess how lovely an
opal can be when the light strikes It?”
Then a new thought flushed in her
eyes.
“Where is that hideous purple
gown?”
She stood up before the mirror and
held up the despised gown.
“It's fearfully unbecoming. I don't
like to make a fright of myself, but
for Elsie's sake----- 1”
In the morning Edna experimented
with her hair.
*
Elsie met her In the hall. “Why.
Edna! You don't look like yourself
with your hair all over your ears and
down to your eyes. It doesn’t suit you,
d»ur.”
.(
“But it's the latest style. The Mor­
timer girls jtave adopted it.”
“Oh. those Mortimer girls!" Elsie
echoed with scorn. "But what Is this
gown? I haven’t seen it before.”
“You’ll see It again." laughed Edna.
"I’m going to give it an airing.”
At breakfast. Edna talked persistent­
ly of Mrs. Faxon, a rather over­
dressed member of the Amethyst club,
dwelling on every detail of her cos­
tume. Ernest retired behind his news­
paper.
“Your friend seems shallow and
commonplace on closer acquaintance,”
he confided to Elsie, afterward.
"But she isn't shallow or common­
place," Elsie insisted, loyally. "It’s just
that you don't see the best side of
her.”
“Perhaps,” he answered, indifferent'

The Misses Pebody rose early. The
elder Miss Pebody went to raise the
curtains at . exactly half-past five.
“Sister, I think we are.going to be

gaze fell to the front walk. “Jane

In large letters lay this inscription,
"Mfe Pebody brush you teef."
Angrily the two' ladles glared at each

word, "Angelica.”
Scarcely had they recovered from
the first shock

jangled wildly. A wrathful voice
shouted: “Has that young rascal been

A little later they beard even
through their cifsed windows the up­

Just as they were going down their
walk their bachelor friend emerged
from his house. “Guess. I’ll go too,”
he observed, grimly.
Mrs. Mom was ready to start work.
“Angelica,’’ she said.
“Where’s my
tailor’s chalk?" Angelica didn’t know;
didn’t even know where It was now;
hadn't seen It foi a long time.
Just then a knock sounded. An­
gelica became irreproachably demure.
But the combined utterances of five
determined Individuals prevailed over
her innocence.
Immediately after
th^r departure. Angelica was sent to
the court with a pall and K|x&gt;nge. Her
return was markedly tearful, but Mrs.
Mom was stem. “Not once may you
go out of the yard today," was her
sentence.
Angelica sulked, then as she looked
up toward the court, grew surprising­
ly cheerful.
A gentleman was ap­
proaching whose hat fairly radiated
newness. She glanced toward the
crab-apple trees, and^ grew positively

spent In Barry county.. As a young

ings. which has been his home ever
since. He was an able lawyer, a" just
and upright citizen, and a most klndJy. lovable man. He leaves a wife

tall will be made by the United
States Department of Agriculture co­
operating with the United Slates
Post Office Department early In May,
it was announced today. Over 24,-.
000 rural mall carriers connected
with 9500 post offices in fourteen
representative states will collect the
necessary data about May 1.
The plan is to secure reports on
simple card questionalres from not
less than twelve farms on each rur­
al route in the various states. This
information will be collected by rur­
al mall carriers in the regular
course of delivering mail and re­
turned to the postmaster for for­
warding to the department of Agri­
culture at Washington tor tabulation.
A card can be filled out in less than
two minutes.
The state to be covered are Ohio.
Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan.
Wisconsin, Minnesota, South Dakota,
Georgia. Alabama and Mississippi.
Special effort will be made to have
the returns truly representative of
the territory from which they are
taken. From these "sample" re­
turns. ratios, percentages, and state
totals can be worked out and applied
to the total number of all farms in
these states.
f
The information on each card will
be confidential, and only percent­
ages and totals will be published.
The card will Indicate the total acre­
age in each farm and the total acre­
age of crop land including hay land.
The number of sows which have far­
rowed or are due to farrow between
January 1 and June 30, 1922. will
be shown and the number of sows on
the farm last year which farrowed be­
tween the same dates in 1921. Simi­
lar information will be given with
regard to sows farrowing between
July 1 and December 81. The av­
erage litter for 1922 to date of the
return, and the average litter for the
first and last six months of 1921 will
be shown.
The questionnaire is so simply ar­
ranged that the giving of all this In­
formation requires the notation of
only nine figures and the name* and
address of the farmer. The survey
and estimate frill be made at re­
markably small cost.
An accurate estimate of the proba­
ble pig population for the year will
be of great value to hog raisers. This
information considered in connec­
tion with the estimated consumptive
demand will enable growers to plan
their operations and marketing so
that the supply at all times will be
In proper relation to the demand,
which in turn will tend to stabilize
prices throughout the year and pre­
vent wide price ranges. Both the
producer and consumer will be benefitted by such a condition.

ARE YOU INSURED?
The season of the year is at hand when destruc­

Is Your Property Protected?
If you are not properly protected against loss from tornadoes, or the insurance
you have is not satisfactory, let us write you a policy. You will be interested in
the financial statement of our company. Study it over, then decide to carry
your windstorm insurance with a company whose expenses are low, and will be
kept that way. A card or a phone call to any of our officers or directors will

Well, folks, how "you all” getting
along with “Good Words Week?"
We hope all of you “joined up” with
us on the proposition and are mak­
ing a go of it. Maybe we will all
like it so well that we will make It a
month instead of a week. We have
to admit that we have “stubbed our
toe" two or three times since the
week opened, but that is life, and we
tried in every case to redeem our­
selves just as quickly as we could,
and we are mighty sure we feel much
tetter about It.
First one was over our income tax
report. We had put in a lot of brain­
exhausting work on that blamed re­
port and we just knew we had ev­
erything all right, and wo wrote a
check and enclosed with it and sent
It in to that lovely Mr. Holden at
Grand Rapids, who is doing his level
best to get all the money for Uncle
Sam that Is coming to him in this
western district of Michigan. Then
we sat back in the old chair and
heaved a big sigh of relief, with the
consciousness of duty done and all
that And then in a day or twto
back comes a section of tbe stuff
which we bad sent to him, with in­
structions that that particular part
of it has to be filed at Washington in­
stead of Grand Rapids, and a little
notice up In one corner, marked with
a blue pencil, calling our attention
to the fact that that part of the re­
port must be at Washington on or
before March IS, and here it was tbe
18th. And with visions of a penalty
for our delay hanging heavy in the
air, we got all ready to turn bolshe­
vik and cuss the government and ev­
erybody connected with it, and all
that sort of thing.

HUKE WASHING EASY
Don’t kill.your wife and take it easy yourself. She

about Its being "Good Words Week.”
and we took another slant at It. and
finally it commenced to filter through
the old bean that after all we are
part of tbe government we were Just
getting ready to cuss, and that the
government baa to have money to do
business with Just tbe same as a
country printer has, and that if we
bad been careful enough to have
looked the blanks over as carefully
as we should have done we would
have seen that those particular blanks
should have gone direct to Washing­
ton. and we wouldn’t have made all
thAt extra trouble and work for Mr.
Holden and his clerks, and that real­
ly be bad more right to cuss us than
we had to cuss anybody or anything.

Watch out for that Jay Lane. He's
a dry Joker. And that word dry
works two ways. Th’other day a
stranger drove into his feed barn
with a span of white mules, and left
them there to be fed and cared, for
until he should be ready to leave
town. It was too good an opportun­
ity for Jay, who proceeded promptly
to cal! up several of his particular
friends around town and quietly con­
vey a hint that they better run up
and see him, intimating that he had
some "White Mule" stowed away.
Response was usually very prompt,
and when the victim arrived Jay
would quietly and cautiously, with
an air of great secrecy, conduct him
to a tex stall at the rear end of the
barn, open the door and usher him
Into the presence of the "White
Mule.”

The Gentle Art of "Slickering."
Time and again America's great
metropolis, New- York, has laughed
at the "country rube” who, visiting
the big. town, has fallen in with the
city slickei and returned to his home
town with a block of stock in the
Brooklyn Bridge, which had been
sold to him. or a brick of "gold" that
lias “stood actual test in an assay
office" and is later found to have
been plugged. Now, however, the
laugh Is on the city man himself. It
has remained for Irving T. Bush—
guardian angel of struggling business
humanity and among the most ad­
vanced of free publicity seekers—to
turn the trick on a number of the
most astute business men in New
York. The scheme it appears has
been pulled off In connection with
the Bush Terminal Building that
stands In the heart of the world's
busiest centre. 42nd Street and
Broadway, 30 stories high and almost
piercing the clouds. The result is the
preparation of a law suit of no mean
proportion, but in the meantime tbe
philanthropic Mr. Bush sits, smiles
and awaits a gold medal as the cham­
pion slicker of America.
. Big business men flocked into the
Bush Terminal Building, paying for
office space as high as 35 or 36 a
square fooL The price was stag­
gering, but to offset it Mr. Bush ded­
icated two floors of the building for
tile use of his tenants. He provided
a wonderful restaurant on tbe ground
floor, luxurious lounging quarters for
tbe Buyers’ Club, consisting of the
tenaats and their business visitors.
Then there were rest rooms, tele­
phones. conference rooms and all the
other surroundings of New York lux­
ury offered free to the rent payers.
The Bush Terminal was a veritable
business paradise and the 30 stories
were soon filled. Now comes the
second reel. Having hooked the ten­
ants up with long leases at rents that
would break the average business
man. Mr. Bush rolled up his philan­
thropic cloak and put it away In cam­
phor. Without consulting tbe ten­
ants. he closed the club, tore down
the restaurant, abolished the mag­
nificent entrance, and turned the
space into rentable quarters, from
which it is expected to rake in an­
other 390,000 a year.
Visitors from out of town now
look in vain for the entrance to the
great Bush Terminal Building, but
it is only about 3 feet wide and can't
be found except by an explorer. The
only mark of identification is a little
revolving barter pole sign on the
building next door. The injury to
the business of the tenants is said to
run into hundreds of thousands of
dollars. Perhaps the city man will
now realize that the "country rute”
is not the only fellow who suffers
from inability to match wits with the
slicker.

thaw, which is sure to produce sap.
James Guy tapped his sugar bush
and had one nice little run of “sugar
water". He boiled it down into
syrup and took all but three or four
gallons to the house—tbe balance he
locked up in the shanty and when
he went after It he found that some
miscreant had been there during the
night and broken open the lock and
had some of the syrup and spilled
the balance. He hopes the fellow
who got. it will get the flu or some
other malady equally as bad.

—would not only give

tary of Agriculture the authority to
investigate the operations of dealers,
but upon complaint of any person the
Secretary would make a report of the
transaction record or business of any
dealer or handler.
The Secretary might also provide
for a Board of Arbitration for ad­
justments and disputes in which any
approved handler or dealer has a fi­
nancial interest involving the grade,
quality, condition, value, deteriora
tion, handling or distribution of
farm products. The important point
in the arbitration plan is a provision
that the finding of such a board
would be prima fade evidence in the
courts.
Senator McNary is a practical man.
Perhaps no Senator has a more fun­

ties of the farmer or a deeper ap­
preciation of the injustice under
which he has suffered at tbe hands
of a middleman, and it is hoped tbe

The Man Whom the Storm Haunted.
Near the northern end of Lake
Michigan, where the bluff-bowed orecarriers and the big, lomlying. wheat­
laden steel freighters from Lake Su­
perior push out from the Straits of
Mackinac and dispute the right of
way. in the Island-divided chanhel,
with the whlte-and-gnld. electric-light­
ed. wireless-equipped passenger steam­
ers bound for Detroit and Buffalo,
there Is a copse of pine and hemlock
back from the shingly beach. From
tills copse—dark. blue, primeval, silent
at most times as when the Great Mani­
tou ruled his Inland waters—there
comes at time of storm a sound like
the booming of an old Indian drum.
This drum beat, so the tradition says,
whenever the lake-took a life: and.
as a sign perhaps that It Is still the
Manitou who rules the waters In spite
of all the commerce of the cities, the
drum still bents Its roll for every ship
lost on the lake, one beat for every
life.
So—men say—they heard and bnunted the heatings of the drum to thirtyfive upoiVthe hour when, as afterward
they learned, the great steel steamer
Wenota sank with twenty-four of Its
crew and eleven passengers: so—men
say—they heard the requiem of the
five who went down with the schooner
Grant; and of the seventeen lost with
the Susan Hart: nnd so of-a score of
ships more. Once only. It Is told, bps
the drum counted wrong.
At the height of the great storm of
December. IfiOS. the drum beat the
roll of a sinking ship. One. two,
three—the hearers counted the drum
beats, time nnd again. In their Inter­
mittent booming, to twenty-four. They
waited, therefore, for report of a ship
lost with twenty-four Ilves;
such
news came. The new steel freighter
Mlwaka. on her maiden trip during
the storm with twenty-five—not twen­
ty-four—aboard never made her port;
no news was ever heard from her; no.
wreckage ever was found. On this ac­
count. throughout the families whose
fathers, brothers and sons were the
officers and crew of the Mlwaka. then* .
stirred for a time a desperate belief
that one of the men on the Mlwaka
was saved; that somewhere, somehow,
he was alive and might return. The
day of the destruction of the Mlwaka
was fixed as December 5 by the time
at ■’•‘’Ic/i she passed the government
lookouj at the straits; the hour was
fixed as five o’clock In the morning

Put Your Shoulder
to the Wheel
Our shoulder at the Wheel of Progress will start
millions of other wheels to moving, carrying us for­
ward by sheer momentum; out of the vale of uncer­
tainty; out of the ruts that have been made by the
narrow wheels of habit in their passing; onto the
smooth high road that leads onward to prosperity.

We must remember that Che greatness of our
nation lies not alone in our fertile fields and valleys;
our forests and factories and mines, but in our abil­
ity to co-operate with one another; in the work of
our hands and the confidence that is in our hearts.

“Friends are good to have,” I suggested.
Jo shrugged. “Mine don’t measure

“Love, then?" I questioned.
“Tried that too.” he answered calm­
ly. "doesn’t satisfy. 1 met Rosa two
years ago at a dance. She's pretty
and she loved me. We were engaged.
She’s gone back now to the old coun­

smiled mockingly.
“Then she will
come back to marry me.”
I stared surprise. "That ought to
make you happy.” I said.
“It doesn’t,” lie resjH&gt;nded quiet I v.
Suddenly Miss Joy came down'the

I found them often In the garden to­

ing him a word now and then, or
silently observing his work, while he.
In turn, would come to her with a
flower or a leaf for Inspection.
Their understanding seemed perfect
as whs big Jo’s manner.
One day I heard lilrn say to her

her father to take that liberty, “noth­

affair. Your father would never hear
of the union, You must give Jo up.”
“I will never give him up,” she re­
plied. “without some better reason
than just his poverty.”
Then I told her of the girl—told her.
because I hofied to spare her the fu­

So It happened that the Meredith

laid in his final resting place in the
Three Forks cemetery. The huge
banka of floral pieces were i« silent
tribute, of respect and sympathy to
the man who has been such a model
eitixen and such a mutual friend to
the entire community. The proces­
sion of about one hundred automo­
bile Loads of friends and neighbors
that accompanied the remains to the
grave were a living expression of
grief and regre\ that Ernest Roe
shall no longer be with us.
Ernest Roe died in Butte on Wed­
nesday of last week, after a linger­
ing Illness, bis remains being brot
to Three Forks on Wednesday even­
ing. The remains were met at the
train by a delegation df Masons who
escorted them to the local lodge
rooms where they were laid in state
until .the funeral on Sunday. The
public was admitted to view the re­
mains on Saturday afternoon and
Sunday morning at which time they
were guarded by two Knights Temp­
lar in uniform who stood at atten­
tion during that time. Mr. Roe was
a member of the Commandery at
Bozeman, and was placed In his uni­
form tbr burial. The casket was sur­
rounded with many beautiful floral
pieces and boquets, there being many
from individual friends, one from
the school children who mourned Mr.
Roe as a member of the school board
as well as a friend, one large piece
from many of his associates along
the Main street, several from dif­
ferent lodges and other organiza­
tions.
The funeral services were held at
the Methodist church, all the min­
isters participating in the services.
Mr. Roe’s sister who lives near
Lewistown was the only member out­
side of his In^nediate family who
was able to be present at the funeral.
The loss of Mr. Roe from this
community is Indeed a keen blow,
for he was always active in all move­
ments for the advancement and good
of the community. His business was
popular and was always carried on in
an honest and pleasing manner. Mr.
Roe was one of the pioneers of the
town, and has been continually mak­
ing friends in the entire community
ever since he come here.—Three

"I ended this tale with the hitalulin words:
"Her pale lips fell, a faint flush
tinged her cheek, and she gave him
both her hands; and there in the old
orchard, amid the falling blossoms,
he drew her to him and. raising her
long ringlets to his lips kissed them
reverently.
"Mr. Hitchcock, when he finished
this high-flown passage, drawled:
"W'hat do you think now, honest­

nibbling at a girl’s back hair when
she had her face with her?"

Upon the dressing table in the
bride’s boudoir stood a small, shal­

In the bottom
of the vial could be seen some pink­

"And what is that?" asked the
curious friend.

On Fordson farms, hours instead of days are required for the plowing.
Late Spring with the usual rush of field work does not make the Fordson
fanner wonder whether he can get all the crops in, and still do the work in
tbe way that will insure a fair chance for the crop to mature.
And on the Fordson farm, the Oliver No. 7—the special plow* for the
Fordson—is as dependable a part of the equipment, as the red Oliver horse
drawn plow has been for over sixty-five years.
Built to meet the exact requirements of the Fordson, the No. 7 operates
at areatest efficiency with tbe tractor. On thousands of Fordson farms since
the first tractors went into the service of agriculture, the Oliver No. 7 has
proved its value.
For conditions making desirable a sulky, the No. 3 sulky with either
turning or brush base is supplied.
Tbe price at which complete Fordson farming equipment can be pur­
chased is surprisingly low.
For practical demonstration and full information, see the nearest
Fordson dealer.

Deductive reasoning. In children at
the age of three or four years is as
keen as the edge of a razor, but
through some trick of .time when
they merge Into their teens, their
childish caution flits away and

They flush a red light to warn the
old folks to beware ot the wisdom

Teens and twenties are the forma­

sexes, consciously or unconsciously,
shape their destinies.
If In these dangerous ages Indulgent
parents penntl their offspring to have

To you who are in these perilous

Stop to consider what you are

are climbing the hills. See how cau­

how pride, wantonness and vicissi­

You have the power within you to

It is for you. for you alone, to

Alan choked and gasped for breath,
hl* pulses pounding In hl* throat; he
had snatched off hl* hat and. leaning
out of the window sucked the lake air
In hl* lungs. There had been nothing
to make him exjiect this overwhelming
crush of feeling. Tbe lake—he had
thought of it, of course, as a great
body of water, an Interesting sight
for a prairie boy to see; that was all.
No physical experience In all bis
memory had .affected him like this;
and It was without warning; the
strange thing that had stirred within
him as the car brought him to the
Drive down-town was strengthened
now a thousand-fold; It amazed, half­
frightened, half dizzied him. Ndw. as
the motor suddenly swung around a

from him. Alan sat hpek breathless.

dead and gone caak between them
and making the pertinent remark:
‘United We Stand. Divided We Fall.”’

“What is your name?”
Alan gave bls name; the mnn re­
peated it after him. in the manner of
n trained servant, quite without In­
flection. Alan, not familiar with such
tones, waited uncertainly. So far as
he could tell, the name was entirely

neither welcome nor opposition, but
indifference. The man stepped-back,
but not In such a manner as id invite
Alan In; on the contrary, he half
closed tbe door as he stepped back,
leaving it open only an inch or two;
but It was enough so that Alan heard
him say to some one within:
“He says he’s hint”
"Ask him In; I will speak to him.**
It was a girl’s voice—this second one,
a voice such as Alan never had heard
before. It was low and soft but quite
clear and distinct, with youthful. Im­
pulsive modulations and. tbe manner
of accent which Alan knew must go
with the sort of people who lived in
houses like those on this street.

Judged; like girls h. might up In

to have gained young womanhood In
far greater degree in some respects
than the girl* he knew, while, at the
same time, in other ways, she retained
more than they some characteristics
of a child. Her slender figure had a

He sat down, and she left him:
when her footsteps had died away, and
be could hear no other sounds except
the occashmal soft trend of some
servant, he twisted himself about In
his chair and looked around. Who
were these Sherrills? Who was Cor­
vet. and what was hl* relation to the
Sherrills? What, beyond all, was their
and Corvet'* relation to Alan Conrad—
to himself? The shock and confusion
he had felt at Ute nature of hi* recep­
tion in Corvel's bouse, and the strange­
ness of his transition from his little
Kansas town to a place aijd people
such as this, hud prevented him from
Inquiring directly from Constance
Sherrill us to that; and, on her part,
she had assumed, plainly, that be
already knew and need not be told.
He straightened and looked about,
then got up, as Constance Sherrill
came back Into the room.
■
“Father Is not here Just now," she
said. "We weren't sure from your
telegram exactly at what hour you
would arrive, and that was why I
waited at Mr. Corvet’* to be sure we
wouldn't miss you. 1 have telephoned

She hesitated an Instant In the door­

"Miss Sherrill—" be said.
She halted. “Yes."
“You told me you had been waiting
for me to come and explain my con­
nection with Mr. Corvet. Well—I
can't do that; that Is what I came
here hoping to find out."
She came back toward him slowly.
“What do you mean?" she asked.
He fought down and controlled

knew about himseJf.
He could nut tell definitely how she
was affected hy what he said. She
flushed slightly, following her first
start of surprise after he had begun
to snenk ; when he had finished, he
saw that she was a little pale.
"Then you don't know anything
about Mr. Corvet at nil." she said.
"No; until I got his letter sending

smoothly oval, with straight brows
and a skin so delicate that at tbe
temples the veins showed dimly blue—
was at once womanly and youthful;
and there was something altogether
likable and simple about her. as she
studied Alan now. She was slightly
pale, he noticed, and there were Hues
of strain and trouble about her eyes.
“I am Constance Sherrill," she an­
nounced. Her tone Implied quite evi­
dently that she expected him to have
some knowledge of her. and she seemed
surprised to see that her name did not
mean more to him.

“Mr. Corvet went a way very sud­

thought, to lie trying to make some­

certain what the nature of that shock
might be. Her look was scrutinizing,

She, he saw. was listening, like blm•&lt;elf, for the sound of Sherrill's ar-,
rival at the house; and when it came
she recognized it first, rose, and ex­
cused heraelt. He heard her voice in
the ball, then i^er father’s deeper voice
which answered; and ten minutes
later, he looked up to see the man

Sherrill standing In the dour and" look­
ing at him.
Alan had arisen at sight of him;
Sherrill, as be came in. motioned him
back to his seat; he did not sit down
himself, but crossed to the mantel and
leaned against It.
"1 am Lawrence ’SherrlU,” he said.
As tbe tall, graceful, thoughtful
man stood looking down at him. Alan
could tell nothing of the attitude of
this friend of Benjamin Corvet to­
ward himself. Ill* manner had the
same reserve toward Alan, the same
questioning consideration of him. that
Constance Sherrill had had after Alan
had told her about himself.
“My daughter has repeated to me
what you told her, Mr. Conrad,"
Sherrill observed. "Is there anything
you want to add t* tue regarding
that?"
“There's nothing 1 can add." Alan
answered, “I told her all that I know
about myself."
"And about Mr. Corvet?"
“I know nothing at all about Mr.
Corvet."
"i am going to tell you some things

Alan looked up quickly. "Mr. Cor­

"Corvet was—l» a iakeman,” Sher­
rill said.
Alan sat motionless, as he recol­
lected the strange exaltation that hud

Sherrill of that? He decided it was

CHAPTER III

Discunion of a Shadow
Alan, as he looked confusedly and
blankly at her, made no attempt to
answer the question she had asked,
or to explain. His silence and con­
fusion, he knew, must seem to “e
stance Sherrill ucwillingness to an­
swer her; fur she did not suspect that
he was unable to answer her.
“You would rather explain to fattier
than to me," she decided.
He hesitated. What be wanted now
was time to think, to learn who she
was and who her father was, and to
adjust himself to this strange reversal
of his expectations.
“Yes; I would rather do that,” be
said.
She caught up her Tur collar and
muff from a chair and spoke a word
to the servant. As she went out oc
to the porch, he followed her and
stooped, to pick up-his suitcase.

loose with the following "pome” to
express bls admiration for the for­
mer Nashville pastor. It will be
read with interest by his many
Nashville' friends.
I’ve made acquaintance with a man
Who seems a real man to be;
His manners are spick and span
He’s congenial as ‘can be.
A more pleasant smile you seldom
He knows no favored one;
His voice is clear in melody
Your respect he has already ton.
He has been blessed' &lt;rith a happy
mate.
To her a word of praise;
.
These words I can substantiate,
She, too, has pleasant ways.
They are. as pleasant a couple
To meet as you've ever seeu;
The word of truth is on his buckle,
He Is fighting with the Nazarene.
In the battle we had across the sea
Were bravest men of all the ranks;
So in this battle, no braver man than
he—
.
This man is our Reverend Hanke.
He stands for Truth and face* the foe
As the man behind the tanks;
He opens fire and lets her go—
That’s this man, our Reverend
Hanks.
We need more of this make of man
Who has no fear or dread;
Who will speed Salvation's plan.
And the Gospel message spread.

On Wednesday evening of this
week the Ladles’ Aid served a sup­

you like to hear the notescmwyp

bank, and attended the weekly Rot­

ed into the car and drove it to a
committee meeting, where somebody
noticed that there was an unusual
number of chicken feathers on the
car.
Everybody knows that Kellar
is a famous chef, but nobody sus­
pected how he got his chickens.
Some good friend phoned Chas. Potts
at the factory that it looked bad To
see so many chicken feathers on the
factory car, so Charlie drove hur­
riedly up, called Kellar out, Inquir­
ing it he had acquired any' new tricks
during his recent sojourn in the
South.
Kellar replied in the nega­
tive, but when his attention was call­
ed to the chicken feathers he ex­
claimed "That's not our car; take it
back, quick, before Burd finds it.”
So he sent a boy around the back
streets with the car, had it parked
near tbe bank, climbed into the fac­
tory car standing about thirty feet
away, and they thought they had it
fixed up without anybody knowing
anything about it.
But It happened
somebody did. and now Kellar is
spending all his spare change for
cigars.
And the chicken man. who

INJUTRY ASSOCIATION.
April 7. 1022.
The meeting was called to order
in the Court Room shortly after 1.30
o’clock p. m.
Mr. Bennett, the County Agricul­
tural Agent, brought before ua the
need of cooperation for the sake of
protection. Ab it is, the poultry
man has no protection whatever in
ordering eggs and chicks from breed­
ers. They order and pay for stock
which is supposed to be the very
beat and what do - they get? We
know they do not get what they pay
for. Through an association, the as­
sociation could Investigate these
breeders and firms shipping chick­
ens, eggs, etc., and see just what
they were and which were reliable.
We can also become acquainted with
our neighbors and learn what they
have and possibly build up our
flocks right from under our own
cqpmunity. If we have a list of
names of those wbo are Interested in
poultry husbandry information will
be handed out to them from time to
time on subjecta which will be of
great assistance to them.
Just as
one instance, it has recently been
found that the juice of tomatoes is
very good for weak chicks. Where
certain kinds of food element is
lacking in the food and the chicks
are weak and wobbly the tomato
Juice has been found very beneficial.
Green food is also a very important
element of their food.
Mr. Bennett further brought out
the value of the association and said
he hoped we would have a member­
ship of three hundred inside of three

Why tonic value is greater
in this yeast
Yeast Foam Tablets are made entirely of pure whole yeast
—the richest source of the tissue-building vitamin
The amazing tonic properties of yeast,
and its consequent popularity every­
where, have' offered opportunities
which patent medicine makers and
others have been quick to capitalize.
The resulting flood of so-called vita­
min preparations reveals many prod­
ucts which contain precious little yeast
and insignificant quantities of vitamin.

Remember these facts
Il is of utmost importance to you to re­
member that Yeast Foam Tablets are
made entirely of pure whole yeast —
that their vitamin content is proved by
actual test to be both high and uniform
—that they are endoreed by leading
medical scientists—and that they are
made by yeast experts, the world’s
largest manufacturers of
dry yeast.
By virtue of these facts
you are definitely assured
that Yeast Foam Tablets
have an exceedingly high
tonic value—and that is
what you really want.
You may take them with
the positive knowledge

that they will aid assimilation, promote
growth and the formation of firm,
healthy tissue, and that through these
processes you will experience an ener­
gizing and generally upbuilding effect.

Take Yeast Foam Tablets
for these conditions
Yeast Foam Tablets, which are so rich
are recommended for loss of appetite
indigestion; lack of physical strength
and energy; anaemia; skin disorders
nervous troubles and many forms of vi
tamin deficiency and general ill health
known as “run down” conditions.
The name, Yeast Foam Tablets, is
your protection. It is your guarantee of
purity and known vitamin

The Republican received an anony­

week would have been mentioned if
somebody else's boy had been caught
in the mfx-up. We always want to
maintain a certain charity .for young­
sters who happen to get off on the
wrong foot, and especially when they
make this faux pas during their
school days.
The correspondent
might like to know that we likewise
failed to ake, any reference last
week to a youthful busband who is
doing fifteen days in jail for beating
his wife.

we carried these things around on

of charity is wrapped around a good

It appears an order had been made
for the execution of a German officer
and a detail of English soldiers had
been assigned to carry out the de­

four miles out of camp and the sol­

CHAPTER IV.

“Arrived Safe; Well"
As the door closed behind Sherrill,
Alan went over to the dresser and
picked up the key which Sherrill had
left. He put It, after a moment, on
the ring with two or three other keys
he had, and dropped them Into his
pocket; then he crossed to a chair and
sat down.
Sherrill had spoken of the possibil­
ity that something might have "hap­
pened** to Corvet; but it was plain be
did not believe he had met with actual
violence. He had left it to Alan to ex­
amine Corvel’s bouse; but he had do!
urged Alan to examine It at once; be
had left the time of the examination
to be determined by Alan. This
showed clearly that Sherrill believed
—perhaps had sufficient reason for be­
lieving—that Corvet had simply "gone
sway.” Corvet, Sherrill had said, bad
married in 18811. But Sherrill In long
knowledge of hla friend, had shewn
firm conviction that there had been
no mere vulgar liaison in Corvel’s life.
Old this mean that there might have
been some previous marriage of Alan's
father—some marriage which )md
strangely overlapped and nullified his
public marriage? In that case. Alan
could be, not only in fact but legally.
Corvet’s son; and such things as this,
Alan knew, had sometimes happened,
and bad happened by a strange combi­
nation of events, innocently for all
parties. Corvet’s public separation
from bls wife, Sherrill had said, had
taken place in 1897. but the actual
separation between them might jk-s■Ibly, have taken place Idng before
thaL
The afternoon had changed swiftly
Into night; dusk had been gathering
during his last talk with Sherrill, so
that he hardly had been able to see
Sherrill's face, and just after Sherrill
Lad left him, full dark had come. Alan
did not know how long he had been
sitting in the darkness thinking out
these things; but now a little clock
which bad been ticking steadily In the
blackness tinkled six. Alan heard a
knock at hla door, and when it was re­
peated, he called. “Come in."
The light which eame Id ffom the
hall, as the door was opened, showed
a man servant Tbe man, after a re­
spectful Inquiry, switched on the Il&lt;k&gt;t,
He crossed into the adjoining room—
a bedroom; the room where Alim wag,
he thought, must be u dressing room,
and there was a bath between. Pres­
ently tbe man reappeared, and moved
softly al&gt;out the room, unpacking
Alan’s suitcase. He bung.Alans other
•mlt in the closet’’•oo hangers; he pnt
the linen, except for one shirt. In the
dresser drawers, and he put Alan’s
few toilet things with tbe ivorybacked brushes and comb and other
articles on the dressing stand,
Alan wondered, with a sort of trepi­
dation, whether tbe man would expert
to stay and help him dress; but he
only put the buttons tn the clean shirt

Alan dressed slowly, after ti^‘ man
uad gone; aud at one minute before
seven he went downstairs.
There was no one in the lower ball
and, after an Instant of Irresolution
and a glance into tbe empty drawing
room, be turned into the small room
at the opposite side of the liall. A
handsome, stately, rather large wom­
an, whom be found there, introduced
herself to him formally as Mrs. Sher­
rill. Her reserved, yet almost too
casual acceptance of Alan's presence,
told him that she knew 'Mil the par­
ticulars about himself which Sherrill
bad been able to give; and as Constance came down the stairs and
Joined them half a minute later, Alan
wm certain that she also knew.
Dinner was announced, and they
went Into the great dining room,
i
where the table with its linen, silver,
and china gleamed under shaded
lights. The oldest and most dignified
of the three men servants who waited
upon them In the dining room Alan
thought must be a butler—a species of
creature of whom Alan had heard but
never had seen; the other servants, at
least, received and banded things
through hire, and took their orders
from him.
What Sherrill had told Alan of hla
father had been Iterating Itself again
and again In Alan's thoughts; now he
recalled that Sherrill bad said that his
daughter believed that Corvet’s dis­
appearance had had something to do
with her. Alan had wondered at the
moment how that could be; and as he
watched her across the table and now
end then exchanged a comment with
her, ft puzzled him still more. He
had opportunity to ask her when she
waited with him In the library, after
dinner was finished and her mother
had gone upstairs; but he did not see
then how to go about It.
’Tm sorry." she said to him, "that
we can't be home tonight; but perhaps
you would rather be alone?"
He did not answer thaL
"Have you a picture here. Miss Sher­
rill. of—my father?” be asked.
“Uncle Benny bad had very few pic­
tures taken; but there is oue here."
She went into the »ti|dy and came
back with a book open at a half-tone
nuru of Benjamin Corvet Alan took
rom her and carried It quickly
closer to tbe light The face that
looked up to him from the heavily
glazed page was regular of feature,
handsome In a way, and forceful
There were imagination and vigor of
thought In the broad, smooth fore­
head ; the eyes were strangely moody
and brooding; the mouth was gentle,
rather kindly; It was a queerly im­
pelling, haunting fac&lt;\ This was his
father! But as Alan held the picture,
gazing down upon it the only emotion
which came to him was realization that
he felt none. He bad no emotion of
any sort; he could not attach to this
man, because he bore the name which
some one bad told him was his fa­
ther's, the passions which, when
dreaming of his father, he had felt
Alan stood still a moment longer,
then, remembering the book which he
held, he drew a chair up to the light
and read the short, dry biography of
his father printed on tbe page oppo­
site the portrait It summarized in
a few hundred words his father’s life.
Alan shut the book and sat thought­
ful The tall clock In the ball struck
nine. He got up and went out Into
the hall and asked for bls hat and
coat When they had been brought
-him, he put them oo and went out.
He went dqwn the steps and to the
corner and turned west to Astor street
When he reached the house of his fa­
ther he stopped under a street lamp,
looking up at the big, stern old man­
sion questlonlngly.
He could not call up any sense that
the house was his, any more than he
had been able to when Sherrill had
told him of IL He own a house on
that street I Yet was that In Itself
any more remarkable than that he
should be the guest, the friend of such
people as the Sherrills? No one as

yet, slm'e Sherrill had told him be was
Corvets son. bad called him by name;
when they did, what would they call
him? Alan Conrad still ? Or Alan

He noticed, up a street to the west,
the lighted sign of a drug, store and

turned up that wv.W had promised. '
he had recollected now, to Write to |
.. . . those in Kansas—be could not
call them "father” and “mother" any
more—and tell them what he had dis­
covered as sooa us he arrived. He
could not tell them that, but he could
write them at least that be had ar­
rived safely and was well. He bought
a poetcard In the drug store, and wrote
just, "Arrived safely; am well" to
John Welton in Kansas. There was
a little vending machine upon the coun­
ter, and he dropped In a penny aud got
a box of matches and put them in hla
pocket.
He mailed the card and turned back
to Astor street; and he walked more
swtftly now, Laving come to his deci­
sion, and only shot one quick look up
at the house as be approached It. With
what had bls father shut himself up
within that bouse for twenty years?
And was it there still? And wm It
from that that Benjamin Corvet had
fled? He saw no one In the street,
and was certain no ode was observing
him as, taking the key from his pocket,
be ran up the steps and unlocked the
outer door. Holding this door open
to get the light from the street lamp,
he fitted the key Into the inner door;
then he closed the outer door. For ful­
ly a minute, with fast-beating heart
and a sense of expectation of he knew
not what, he kept bls hand upon tbe
key before he turned it; then ' he
opened the door and stepped Into the
dark and silent house.
CHAPTER V

An Encounter.
Alan, standing In the darkness of
the hall, felt In his pocket for his
matches and struck one on the box.
Tbe light showed the hall In front of
him, reaching back Into some vague,
distant darkness, and great rooms with
wide portlered doorways gaping on
both sides. He turned Into the room
upon bls right, glanced to see that the
shades were drawn on the windows
toward the street, then found the
switch and turned on the electric light
Alan had the feeling which so often
comes to one in an unfamiliar and
vacant house that there was some one
In the house with him. He listened
aud seemed to hear another sound Id
the upper hall, a footstep. He went
out quickly to tbe foot of tbe stain
and looked up them.
"Is any one here?” he called. "la
Swiisrtl’
-­
Is volc4 brought no response. He
t half way up the curve of the wide
Stairway and called again, and lis­
tened ; then be fought down the feeling
he had had; Sherrill h^d said there
would be no one in the house, and
Alan was certain there was no ore.
Bo be went back to the room where
he had left the light.
Tbe center of this room, like the
room next to It, was occupied by a
library table-desk. He pulled open
some drawers in It; one or two had
blueprints and technical drawings In
them; the others had only the miscel­
lany which accumulates In a room
much used. There were drawerfl also
under the bookcases all around tbe
room; they appeared, when Allan
opened some of them, to contain pam­
phlets of various societies, and the
scientific correspondence of which
Sherrill had told him. Alan felt that
seeing these things wm bringing his
father closer to him: they gave him a
little of the feeling be had been unable
to get when he looked at his father's
picture. He could realize better now
the lonely, rertlelk feAfi. pursued by
some ghost he could not kill, taking
up for distraction one subject of study
after another, exhausting each In turn
until he could no longer make It en­
gross him, and then absorbing him­
self In the next.
On the top of a chest of high draw­
ers in a corner near the dressing
table were some papers. Alan wen*
over to look at them; they were invi­
tations, notices of concerts and of
plays twenty years old—the mall,
probably, of the morning when Corvet’s
wife had gone away, left where her
maid or she herself had laid them,
and only picked up and put back there
at the times since when the room was
dusted. As Alan touched them, he
saw that his fingers left marks In the
dust on the smooth top of the chest;
he noticed that some one else had
touched the things and made marks
of the same sort as he bad made. The
freshness of these other marks star­
tled him; they had been made within
a day or so. They could not have
been made by Sherrill, for Alan had
noticed that Sherrill’s hands were
slender and delicately formed; Cor­
vet, too, was not a large man; Alan’s
own band was ot good size and pow­
erful, but when he put bls fingers over
the marks the other man had made, he
found that the other hand must have
been larger and more powerful than
his own. Had It been Corvet’s serv­
ant? It might have been, though the
marks seemed too fresh for that; for
the servant Sherrill had said, had left
the day Corvet’s disappearance was
discovered.
Tills proof that some one had been
prying about In the house before him­
self and since Corvet had gone, star­
tled Alan and angered him. Who had
been searching In Benjamin Corvet’s
I —In Alan’s house? He pushed the
drawers shut hastily and hurried
Heroes the hall to the room opposite.
In this roone—plainly Benjamin Cor­
vet’s bedroom—"ere no slgus of In­
trusion. He went to tbe door of tbe
room connecting with It, turned on
the light, and looked In. It was a
smaller room than the others and
contained a roil-top desk and a cabi­
net. The cover of the desk was cloeed,
and the drawers of the cabinet were
shut and apparently undisturbed. He
tried the cover of the desk, but It tippeered to be locked; after looking

around vainly for a key. he tvMV

of this, he had found only one arSada*

Warner’s Rust-Proof Corsets
Guaranteed Not to Rust, Break or Tear
The new Spring Clothes are such a temptation to
every woman who loves pretty things— and some­
times she cannot afford quite all she wants. So we
are suggesting a real economy—a corset which is de­
pendable in style and fit and which gives wonderful
service in long wear. The prices of Warner's are
not only unusually low, but they are even lower when
you consider how long one of these corsets will last .
and that it can be washed again and again to be just
as good as new. We are showing plenty of styles
from which to select your model. Prices $1.00 to
$3.50.

WITH THE KNIFE
Since tri flee make the sum of human
thlWKB.—Hannah More.

ON*T hold your knife at table as
If you contemplated cutting your
way through a barbed-wiry en­
tanglement with it. Take ft
fur­
ther down toward the blade than Is
necessary to bold it securely. In fact
it Is a mistake to let your fingers rest
anywhere but on tlie'handle, save that
the Index finger may be placed on the
edge of the dull side.
When you have finished with a
course In which a knife is used place
the knife across the side of the plate
with the sharp side of the blade to­
ward the center. If you are dining
wltjj your family sr.d send your plate
tn the carver for a second helping the
knife and fork should be placed in
this way. not removed and laid on the
butter plate, much less held in mid-

Never hold (he knife In the hand
save when using It. Some persons
you know forget flint they have It In
their bund and raise It In an awk­
ward fashion with the point of the
blade relllngward. We have all seen
humorous pictures of the uncouth man
who sits waiting for his plate with
his knife In his right hand and his
fork In his left, points upward. See
that you don't let yourself look as
ridiculous.
Never use a knife In eating salad.
Do not use a steel knife In eating
fish. Some persons would say. never
use any knife at all with fish, but It Is
quite all right tt&gt; use a silver knife
and small silver knives are especially
designed for the fish course. In the
ordinary household where fish Is
served as a substitute for the meat
course It is served with the usual
knife and fork, but this knife should
not t&gt;e of steel.
Do not use a knife when eating des­
serts, although In some provincial
hotels the waiter will give you a knife
and fork with pie.
A small knife
may be served and used with cheese.
When this Is done cut off a bit of
cheese and plnce It by means of the
knife on the wafer with which it is
served and then convey the wafer to
your mouth by means of the left hand.
Never, never use your knife as an
implement with which to assist food
on your fork or to scout about your
plate for last morsels. In fact the
knife should not be used at all for
potatoes or other vegetables these be­
ing broken entirely by means of the
fork.
If no butter knives are used it is
quite all right to use the dinner knife
for buttering bread. Remember, how­
ever, never to spread more than a
small morsel at a time, and never wipe
off gravy or other food on a slice of
bread by way of polishing your knife
before using It on. the butter.

certainly showed that another person

not guilt had sent Benjamin Corvet

there had been guilt behind tpe ghost

when he had seen Alan. A bold, pow­

science Is dear, does not pee a ghost.
And the ghost which he had seen had
a bullet bole above the brows!
Alan took up bls hat and looked
about the house; he was going to re­
turn and sleep here, of course; he was
not going to leave the house unguard­
ed for any long time after this, but.
after what had Just happened, he felt
he could leave it safely for half an
hour, particularly if he left a light
burning within.
He did this and stepped over to the
Sherrills*. The man who answered his
ring recognized him at once and ad­
mitted him; in reply to Alan’s ques­
tion. the servant said that Mr. Sherrill
had not yet returned. When Alan
went to his room, the valet appeared
and. finding th^t Alan was packing,
the man offered his service. Alan let
him pack and went downstairs; a mo­

■Constance followed her mother but,
ten minutes later, came downstairs.
"You’re not staying here tonight?'
she asked.
"I wanted to say to your father,"
Alan explained, “that I believe 1 had
better go over tu the other house.”
"Are you taking any one with you?"
she inquired.
“Any cumj?”
“A servant, I mean.”
^No.”

“Then you'll let us lend you a man
(from here.’’
"You're awfully good; but I don’t
think Hl need anyone tonight Mr.
Corvet’s—my father’s man—is coming
back tomorrow, I understand. I’ll get
along very well until then.”
She was silent a moment as she
looked away. Her shoulders suddenly
jerked a little. “I wish you'd take
tome one with you,"''she persisted. "I
don’t like to think of you alone over
there.”
“My father must have been often
alone there.”
"Yea,” she said. “Yes.” She looked
at him quickly, then away, checking a
question. Sbe wanted to ask, he knew,
what he had discovered in that lonely
house which hud so agitated him; for
of course sbe had noticed agitation in
aim. And he had Intended to tell her,
or, rather, her father. He had been
rehearsing to himself the description
of the man he had met there in order
to ask Sherrill about him; but now
Alan knew that he was not going to
refer the matter even to Sherrill Just

"Warn you. Miss Sherrill? How? 1
mean, warn you against what?”
“Against thinking too much of him.”
She turned a* ay.
"I think. I'll come to see your father
in the morning,” Alan said, when Con­
stance looked back to him.
“But you’ll come over here
breakfast in the morfilng?”
"You want me?”
"Certainly."
”I’d like to come very much."
“Then I’ll expect you.” She followed
him to the door when he had put on
bls things, and he made no objection’
when she asked that the man be al­
lowed to carry his bag around to the
other house.
When be had dismissed Simons and
re-entered the house on Astor street,
he found no evidences of any disturb­
ance while he had been gone. On the
second floor, to the east of the room
which had been his father’s, was a
bedroom which evidently had been
kept as a guest chamber; Alan carried
bls suitcase there and made ready for
bed.
The sight of Constance Sherrill
standing and watching after him in
concern as he started back to this
bouse, came to him again and again
and, also, her flush when she had
spoken of the friend against whom
Benjamin Corvet had warned her.
Who was he?. It had been impossible
at that moment for Alan to ask her
more; besides, if he bad asked and she
had told him. he would have learned
only a name which be could dot place
yet In any connection with her or with
Benjamin Corvet. Whoever he was. It
was plain that Constance Sherrill
"thought of him:’’ lucky man, Alan
said to himself. Yet Corvet had
warned her not to think of him. . . .
Alan turned back bls bed. It bad
been for him u tremendous day. Bare­
ly twelve hours before be had comp to
that house, Alan Conrad from Blue
Rapids. Kan., now . . . phrases
from what Lawrence Sherrill had told
him of his father were running
through his mind as he opened the
door of the room to he able -to hear
any noise in Benjamin Corvet’s house,
of wh|ch be was sole protector. ?be
empU2fl
»llFt 4 die
like went through him again as he
opened the window to the east.
Now—he was In bed—he seemed to
be standing, a specter before a man
blaspheming Benjamin Corvet and the
souls of men dead. “And the hale
above the eye! . . . The bullet got
you ! ... So It’s you that g&lt;»t Ben ’
. . . I’ll get you! . . . You can't
save the Miwaka I"
The Miwaka ! The stir of that name
was stronger now even than before; It
had been running through his con­
sciousness almost constantly since he
had heard IL He Jumped up and
turned on the light and found a pencil.
He did not know how to spell the
name and it was not necessary to
write It down;’the name had taken on
that definiteness and Ineffaceableness
of a thing which, once her.rfl, can
never again be forgotten. But, in
panic that he blight forget, he wrote
It, guessing at the spelling—“Mlwakfi:"
It was a name, of course: but the
name of what? It repeated and re­
peated Itself to him, after be got back
into bed. until Its very Iteration made
him drowsy.
Outside, the gale whistled and
shrieked. The wind, passing Its last
resistance after Its sweep across the
prairies before It leaped upon tlie lake,
battered and clamored in Its assault
about the house. But as Alan became
sleepier, he heard It no longer as It
rattled the windows ar.u howled under
the eaves and over the roof, but as out
on the lake, above the roaring and ice­
crunching waves. It whipped and cir­
cled with Its chill the Ice-shrouded
sides of struggling ships. So, with the
roar of surf and gale In his ears, he
went to sleep with the sole conscious
connection in his mind between him­
self and these people, among whom
Benjamin Corvet‘s summons had
brought him, the one name “Miwaka.”

CHAPTER VI.

Memory, if Alan could call it that,
bad given him a feeling for ships and
for the lake. But these recollections
were only what those of a three-yea re
child might have been. Not only did
they refuse to connect themselves with
anything else, but by the very finality
of their isolation, they warned him
that they—and perhaps a few more
vague memories of similar sort—were
all that recollection ever would give
him. He caught himself together and
turned his thoughts to the approach­
ing visit to Sherrill—and his father’s
offices. He had accepted Constance
Sherrill's invitation to drive him
downtown to his destination. :
Observing the towering buildings to
his right, he was able to identify some
of the more prominent structures, fa­
miliar from photograph* of the dty.
Constance drove swiftly a few blocks
down this boulevard; then, with a
sudden, "Here we are!" she, shot the
car to the curb and stopped. She led
Alan into one of the tallest and best­
rct's house. There was one other cir­ looking buildings.

On several of the doors opening up«s
ttooed but not explained; it occurred ths wide marble hall where the aleva-

Sherrill had believed that Benjamin
Corvet’s disappearance was from cir­
cumstances too personal and Intimate
to be made a subject of public inquiry;
and what Alan had encountered in
Corvet’s house had confirmed that be­
lief. SJierriH further had said that
Benjamin Corvet, if he had wished
Sherrill to know those circumstances,
would have told them to him; but Cor­
vet had not done that; instead, he had
sent for Alan, his son. He had given
hl* son his confidence^
Sherrill had admlttfl that he was
withholding from Alan, for the time
being, something that he knew about
Benjamin Corvet; it was nothing, he
bad said, which would help Alan to
learn about his father, or what had
become of him; but perhaps Sherrill,
not knowing these other things, could
not speak accurately as to that. Alan
determined to ask Sherrill “what be

You have lately been reading
about radio Well, the First Baptist
church of that city, the Convention
church, is now having installed a
powerful radio and each evening,
part of the time, the convention will
listen to music, songs and address­
es from distant cities. No doubt
each one who goes from here will
hear radio for the first time. It’s
wonderful. Someone has lately re­
marked: "The time will soon be
when the whole world will be a
whispering gallery.” In these times,
when men are getting absorbed with
what is going on in this hurried age,
don’t you forget about your Maker.
There is a God. As long as there is
in this world joy and sorrow, life
and death, you'll need to know His
pardoning grace. Here are two
short quotations from Holy writ:
"God is angry with the wicked every
day"; and "He that hath the Son
hath life.” The two here spoken of
are as far apart as the poles. Have
you in your heart experienced tbe
saving power of the gospel of the
Lord Jesus Christ? Do you want to
spend eternity with Jesus and the
redeemed? If you do you must
know Him here and come out from
the world and line up on His side.
A. K. Scott, Pastor.

The foliowtag item from last
week’s Hastings Banner will be read
with taierest by Nashville people
who remember Miss Vera Ingerson,
formerly of this place. She Is a
daughter of Chas. E. Ingerson and
a granddaughter of S. S. Ingerson.
Miss Ingerson spent her girlhood
days here, afterward going to Hast­
ings.
"There wsa a very enjdyable Mis­
sionary Rally at the Presbyterian
church Monday night in which tbe
Westminister Guild and tbe Chris­
tian Endeavor Society participated.
They gathered, for supper, following
which Dr. Pieters, a woman medical
missionaryrwho is in this country on
furlough from Korea gave an ad­
dress.
In a country where doctors and
surgeons are so scarce that a popula­
tion the size of Detroit would only
be served by one doctor and another
part time, Dr. Pieters naturally has'
seen a life of service. • She made the
statement that she had probably op­
erated In the first two or three years
there more times than the average
surgeon would be called upon in 25
years in this country.
Miss Vera Ingerson, the Hastings
nurse, who was assigned to Korea
when she entered the missionary
field, is associated with Dr. Pieters,
who brought news of her, and the
report that she is doing splendid
work there, and is much loved and
reverened by the natives."

MOTHERS’ DAY PROCLAMATION.
.
By the Governor.
Following the beautiful custom
with which we have become familiar
in recent years, the time has come
to name a day to be known as Moth­
ers’ Day, a day whose observance
shall honor the memory of our de­
parted mothers and pay a tribute of
gratitude and affection to those who
are still with us. In the watchful,
tender care which guided our earliest
footsteps, in tbe constant planning
for our welfare and our happiness,
In the unfailing love that has blessed
us all through tbe years up to man­
hood and womanhood and that still
blesses and cheers ua, though It be
but a dear memory, in these things
we find abundant reason for humble
and grateful acknowledgment o' the
debt we owe our mothers. The very
name of mother is a synonym for
love and devotion and willing sacri­
fice.
Therefore, by virtue of the au­
thority vested in me as Governor of
the State of Michigan, I do hereby
designate and proclaim Sunday, May
fourteenth. 1922, as Mothers* Day,
and I call upon our people, both old
and young, to gather in their several
places of worship and take part in
services appropriate to the day.
And let absent sons and daughters
take thia occasion to vislt^he moth­
er in the old home, or, where such
a visit is impossible, let them send
a message of cheer and greeting.
In accordance with a resolution of
the Congress of the United States. I
further request the people of Michi­
gan on the day aforesaid to display
the United States flag in their homes
and in other suitable places, aa a
fitting expression of their desire to
pay homage to American mother­
hood.

cially in the case of thd lighter soils,
and the question of using commercial
nitrogen profitably on them arises
Immediately. Tests conducted two
years ago by members of the college
soils department indicate that top
dressing with nitrate of soda and
ammonium sulphate, two commercial
forms of nitrogen, frequently pays
well.
It is true that in the majority of
instances soils lose vegetable mutter
as they are farmed from decade to
decade. In the case of several of
our lighter soil types, the amount of
material in them originally was not
great, and as tbe quantity has been
lowered by farming they have reach­
ed a critical condition.
It is conceded that a legume

inasmuch as it is not possible or

light soils to get them into suitable
condition at once for the production
of legumes or to apply stable manure
to all crops that are grown as fre­
quently as it should be applied, the
profitable use of commercial nitro­

Tests Show Value.
Many tests with nitrate of soda
and ammonium sulphate were con­
ducted by G. M. Granthan and oth­
ers during 1920. Tests on twentyfour light and twenty-eight heavy
soils, in widely separated areas of
the state, were carried out.

AMERICAN FOUL BROOD.

Disinfection of Frame* Infected With
American Foulbrood.
F; W. Fabian, Bacteriology Sec., of

Various treatments have been rec­
ommended for treating American
foulbrood with varying results.
Phenol (carbolic acid) was one of
the earliest chemicals used but ex­
periments have shown it to be in­
effective. Beta naphthol, salicylic
acid and soft soap have likewise.been
tried and discarded. In some cases
it was suggested to feed the bees
honey which contained tbe above
chemicals. The treatment that has
been most successful, however, has
not been a chemical treatment but
the “shaking treatment” with which
every up-to-dat? beekeeper is famil­
iar. After the bees have been shak­
en from the diseased frames, the
next question that arises is what
shall be done with the diseased ।
frames. It is rather expensive to
burn them but this is better than.to
use them again or place them where
bees have access to them. At the
suggestion of R. H. Kelty, of the En­
tomology department of the college,
an experiment was performed to de­
termine the effectiveness of boiling
the frames in a solution of lye.
Are you thinking of trading in your old bus

considered the cost of tbe nitrogen,
it was brought out that there was
a satisfactory financial gain from its

tests were conducted in 1921 with
similar results. Thus it follows that

“I think I cun l»e here thin after­

He did not finish the sentence, but
hailed at the doors Sherrill went out.
..nd Alun followed him; exasperation
—half outrage yet half admiration—at
Spearman's bearing, held Alan speech­
less. If every movement of Spear­
man's great, handsome body had not
recalled to him their struggle of the
night before—if. as Siieurman's hand
rested cordially on Sherrill's shoulder,
Alan had not seemed to feel again that
big hand at his throat —he would al­
most have been ready to believe that
this was not the man whom he bad
fought. But he could not doubt that;
he hud recognized Spearman beyond
question. And •S|H-arman had recog­
nized him—be was sure of that; he
could not for un Instant doubt it;
Spearmun bud known It was Alun
whom he had fought in Corvet’a house
even before Sherrill had brought them
together. Was there not further proof
of that in S|ieanmiu*s subsequent man­
ner toward him? For what was all
this cordiality except defiance?
Power and possession—both far ex­
ceeding Alan's most extravagant
dream—were promised him by tliose
papers which Sherrill liad shown him.
When be had read down Qjq Ufit of
those properties, he had had no more
‘feeling that such things could be his
than he had hud al first that Corvel's
house could be bl’*—until be had'heard
the intruder moving in that house.
And now It was the sense that another

properties that «us bringing to him

"had" sonietiiing on that man—on
Spearmun. He did n«&gt;t know what that
thing was; no stretch of hls thought,

hud mistaken him for some tme else—
for a ghost. But, after learning that
Alan whs not u ghost. Spearman’s at­
titude had not very greatly changed;
lie had fought, he had been willing to
kill rather than to be caught there.
Alun thought an Instant; he would
tpuUcc sure he still "had" that some­
thing on Spearman and would learn
how far It went. He took up the re­
ceiver and asked for Speannan.
A voice answered—"Yes.”
Alun said, evenly: ”1 think you and
I had better have u talk before we
meet with Mr. -Sherrill this afternoon.
I am here In Mr. Corvet’a office now
and will Im* here for half an hour,
then I’m going out."
Speannan made no reply, but hung
up the receiver. Alan sat waiting, hls
watch upon the desk before him—
tense, expectant, with flushes of !&gt;ot
and cold passing over him. Ten min­
utes passed; then twenty. The tele­
phone under Corvet’a desk buzzed.
"Mr. Spearman says he will give
you five minutes now,” the switchboard
girl said.
Alan breathed deep with relief;
Speannan had wanted to refuse to see
him—but he had not refused; he had
sent for him within the time Alan had
appointed and after waiting until Just
before It expired.
Alan put hls watch back Into hls
pocket and, crossing to the other office,
found Spearman alone. There was no
pretense of courtesy now In Spear­
man's manner; he sat motionless at
hls desk, his bold eyes fixed on Ala&gt;
Intently. Alan closed the door behind
him and advanced toward the desk.

An Expert
Writes:

Some people loaf themselves to
death.
They are chronically lazy, lacking
in ambition, and without sufficient
energy to take the daily exercise that
nature requires In order to keep the
body functioning in normal condi­
tion.
Their intellects become dulled,
their minds become clogged, their
joints become stiff, and the red
blood of youth turns to the water of
premature old age.
They just drift, and sink, and are
promptly forgotten.
A fitting end to a worthless ca­
reer.

Better Crop Statistics.
This is the season when our su­
pervisors are making the!; annual
round of their respective townships
for the purpose of taking the assess­
ment. This year in addition, they
are collecting information relative to
the acreage of crops that have been
planted and. wilt be planted, the num­
ber of bearing fruit trees, and num­
bers of each kind ot live stock,
j While It Is the first time that these
data have been collected In. this form

and other Important crop
for a number of years. These
stateshave
.
found
,
that it enables
them to sucure the proper viewpoint
from which to contract their mar■ keting programs and furnished them
I at the minimum of cost the statistics
necessary for intelligent action.
These items constitute the basic
information upon which to build
production estimates and are used
solely for that purpose, having no
relation to the assessment work.
Neither does the information for any
farm go beyond the statistician's
office. Only the state and county
totals are published.
By this simple plan, other states
have complete and accurate statis­
tics to hand put to their fanners and
marketing associations. Many of
these states are growing and market­
ing crops in competition with our
own. Unless we have equally ac­
curate. timely and reliable informa­
tion we are at a distinct disadvant­
age.
Both the state and federal de­
partments of agriculture are con­
stantly besieged with special re­
quests for more special and detailed
Information about our various crops,
especially the fruit and truck crops,
beans, potatoes and live stock, which
are our leading cash commodities.
These departments are anxious to
meet these requests, coming as they
do from those engaged in improving
our marketing facilities and building
up co-operative shipping and mar­
keting associations, and from many
individual farmers.
The collection of these statistics by
supervisors and assessors while vlaiting each farm for assessing pur­
.pose, saves the greater part of the
expense that would be involved if
done as a separate Job. It provides
what is practically an annual cen­
sus with very little additional cost,
and far cheaper than it can be ob­
tained in any other way.
A number ot the slates are al­
ready sending out the crop and mar­
ket figures by tireless. The de­
velopment of this service will. In a
short lime, make all such informa­
tion available as soon us prepared,
to every farming community. Only
by thus thoroughly Informing our­
selves on crop anti marketing con­
ditions as they exist, not only in our
state, but in competing states, can
we hope to successfully compete
with our aggressive neighbors In
those states or curb the activities of
the speculative public. In return,
each community should feel Its re­
sponsibility In furnishing cheerful­
ly. promptly and accurately the In­
formation as required. Only In this
way can those charged with the responsibilitity of preparing and is­
suing our statistical reports ade­
quately fulfill their duties In a man­
ner satisfactory to themselves and to
the public.

THINGS BEGINNERS
MUST LEARN FIRST
Explanation of Terms Used in
Radio and of Its Basic
-

Principles.

Due to the great interest taken In ra­
dio since broadcasting stations have
been started, many radio terms are
seen and heard that may be unfamiliar
to the novice. Some of the most com­
monly used terms are explained and
defined below.
Like light, heat and sound, radio
energy Is propagated In the form of a
wave motion. Every one Is familiar
with the wave motion set up on tbe
surface of a still body ot water by the
dropping of a stone Into It
Every time a point on the surface
of the waves goes through a complete
set of motions and starts to repeat
those motions the wave Is said to have
gone through a cycle.
The number of complete cycles gone
through per second Is the frequency.
The human ear is responsive to
sound frequencies up to a few thousand
cycles per second but is not capable of
responding to the higher frequencies
encountered in radio. Arbitrarily a
frequency of less than 10.000 cycles
has been called an audible frequency
—one which can be beard—and fre­
quencies above 10,000 cycles, radio or
Inaudible frequencies—because they
cannot be heard by the human ear.
The particular type of wave which
propagates radio energy Is an electro­
magnetic wave. All of us have seen
bits of Iron and steel attracted by the
little toy magnets made up in the form
of horseshoes. Till* attraction of the

field about the tips of the magnet and
this same kind of a field propagates
the electro-magnetic force, except that
unlike the toy magnet, it* power comes
off in the form of wavy motion*. Till*
electro-magnetic force propagates radid energy In all directions.
The medium that transmits the elec­
tro-magnetic waves is the same me­
dium that transmits light—the ether.
This medium ia supposed to fill all
space, even that occupied by fluids and
solids. Little is known about it* prop­
erties.
In radio It Is more common to speak
of wave length than frequency. The
wave length of any wave motion Is the
distance between any two successive
crests In the same direction. TTie
wave length depends upon the fre­
quency. If the frequency 1* high the
wave length Is short. On the other
hand If the frequency is low the wave
length Is long. Numerically the wave
length la equal to the distance trav­
eled by the wave In one second divided
by the frequency. Suppose, for ex­
ample, that it were desired to know
tbe wave length of an electro-magnetic
wave having a frequency of 835.000
cycles. Electro-magnetic waves travel
at the*MTne speed as do light waves,
that la, 186.000 miles per second. Di­
viding the 180.000 by 835.000 the wav*
length would l&gt;e .223 miles or 396
yards. In radio work It Is measured
in meters. A meter Is equal to ap-I
proximately 1.1 yards. Converting 396
yards into meters tbe wave length
would be 396 divided by 1.1 or 360 |
meters. This‘I* the wave length on i

Help the Farmer and we
Help America!
The farmer's prosperity is the yardstick which

measures the peace and prosperity ot the world.

It is better for a man or boy to know the best
varieties of grain and huit than that he should

know the best brand of cigarets.

It means

more to a home for girls to know how to cook
and bake and can than for them to know how '

to dance the tango, turkey trot or shimmy
dance stunts.

P/. entertained Grand Chancellor
Charles W. Lasher of Plainwell, the
Nashville school board, a number of
the faculty and students tn the high­
er grades. The occasion marked the
close of the school essay contest, and

tion of the efforts of th© contestants

Following the feed, which was
served at 6.30, Chancellor Comman­
der Henton took charge of the ses­
sion and called upon several of the
students to read their essays, some
of which will be published tn later

lows. First prize. Miss Geneva DeVlne; second, Francis Kaiser; honor­
able mention. Miss Marjorie Decker,

The subject of the essays was
"American Citizenship—Its Aims,
Ideals and Responsibilities." and its
bearing on twentieth century busi­
ness conditions and school was dis­
cussed very forcibly and interesting­
ly by Mr. Glasgow and Superinten­
dent Chapman. Grand Chancellor
Lasher was called upon and respond­
ed with a short talk on Pythianism.

excellently given. At his request

NASHVILLE 5: HASTINGS 4.
The high school bail team evened
scores with the Hastings team at
Riverside park Thursday afternoon
in a five inning game played under
difficulties. The weather looked
threatening enough when the game
started, but two and a half innings
were played before the storm broke,
the score standing 2 to 1 in favor of
the visiting team. The crowd found
what shelter they could in the grand­
stand, and after a thirty minute wait
the shower had died down tq a slow
drizzle and it was decided to con­
tinue the game until five Innings had
been played so that the game would
count in the county standings. Hast­
ings annexed two more runs in their
half of the fourth, leaving the score
4 to 1 when Nashville came to bat
in the last inning. At this stage of
the game Joy. who had been pitch­
ing for Hastings, was switched to
first base and their star left-hander.
Card, was put in the box. It was
Card’s off day and he started out by
walking the first three batters, fill­
ing the bases. That finished him.
g' and Joy was called back to finish
■ j the game. He walked one more".
HI I forcing in one tally, and then made
Bl another mistake by lobbing one ov■ er the center of the plate for Johnny
■ Johnson, who cleared the bases with
■ a three-base clout to deep center.
■ winning the game 5 to 4. This tied
■ the two teams for the championship
■ of Barry county, but as games sl■ ready scheduled prevented playing
■ tbe deciding game this week. Hast■ Ings will represent the county in the
■ Barry-Eaton field meet Saturday and

E. B. Smith read a paper entitled,
"Honesty". Mr. Smith said, "Les­
sons in honesty must he taught in
the school, and must be taught much

esty means contentment with what
we have. Every criminal comes
from some kind of a home. The
kind of a home in which he is
wrought up will go far toward de­

oiL Something of the kind has been
suspected for some time past as
strangers have been in that locality
exploring the farms and making ex­
amination of the springs. The per­
son first to call attention to the prob­
ability of oil in that section was T.
J. Blanck. It was upon the farm of
Mr. Blanck's father in Pennsylvania
that oil was first discovered, and
Thomas Blanck and his brothers put
down the first well In Pennsylvania.
Mr. Blanck has resided on a farm
in Assyria for several years, and his
attention has been frequently at­
tracted to tbe oil in large quantities
on the surface of a number ot springs
on his farm. Nelson Wiley, a farmer
who has lived in that township for
forty years, says that in the pioneer
days the large quantities of oil upon
the surface of the water in the
springs and marshes in that town­
ship made it unfit for use.
The Oil
obtained from these springs has been
analysed by expert chemists with the
result that the oil has been declared
of a superior quality. The eastern
capitalists have leased the right to
bore upon the farm of Mr. Blanck,
and also the farms of several other
”
persons in that vicinity.

through the night before, and carefully
examined the papers In it one by one,
but found them only ordinary papers.
He pulled the drawer completely out
and sounded the wall behind it and the

peared solid. He put the drawer beck
in and went on to examine the next
one. and, after that, »he olhera. The
clock* tn the house had been wound,
for presently the clock in the library

chimed slowly. An nour later, when
the clocks chimed again, Alan looked
up and saw Wussaquum’s smalt black

ets. fixed on him Intently through the
door. How long the Indian had been
there. Alan could not guess; be had

Alan reflected a moment. "Mr. Sher­

any longer He had to take them
across alone. Besides, it was bad
weather, the beginning of a storm.
"He went uway, and my mother

Pretty soon I saw my mother coming

hair was hanging down, and *he was

said my father was dead. Other In­

Drum. The Indians found my father’s
body.”
“Did you ever hear of a ship called
the Mlwaka. Judah?"
"That was long ago," the Indian an­
swered.
"They say that tbe Drum beat
wrong when the Mlwaka went down—
that It whs one beat short of the right
number."
“That was long ago," Wassaquam
merely repeated.
“Did Mr. Corvet ever speak to you
about the Mlwaka?"
“No: he asked me o^e If I had ever
beard the Drum. I told him."
Wa**aquaro removed the dinner and
brought Alan a dessert. He returned
to stand In the place across the table
that Alan hud assigned to him, and
stood looking down at Alan, steadily
and thoughtfully.
"Do I look like any one you ever saw

"I* that what you are thinking?”
"That I* what I was thinking. Will

Alan crossed to the library and seat­

A Voice From the Methodist Episco­
pal Church.
Communion service Sunday morn­
ing and reception of members. A
short sermon on "The New Cove­
nant." Every member of the church
should keep this appointment with
Christ.
Pam wondering if the older folks
are setting the right kind of example
in reference to Sunday school at­
tendance. Where will the children
and jfcung folks be If they follow
your example? The Young people
are certainly loyal to the Epworth
League. Some folks haven’t • been
there in a long while. Are you
among those who never come except
when asked to lead the meeting?
Let’s go Sunday evening.^
Are you as loyal to the evening
service as the young people who sing?
Sunday evening the topic will be.
‘‘The -Young Man Whom Jesus Lov­
ed.” Let's all be boosters.
It would seem as if the announce­
ment of prayer meeting Wednesday
evening, every Sunday at each ser­
vice. would strike condemnation to
a lot of folks. Are you case-harden­
ed? Better ask yourself, if you are
sure you are not making a serious
mistake, that in the future you will
have a long while to regret.
The church is not for perfect peo­
ple. but to help make imperfect peo­
ple better. If we didn’t make mis­
takes, there wouldn’t be rubber tips
on lead pencils. Come and help us
help others to be better, thus we
shall help ourselves.
You are
always welcome.

Carlton thought longingly of his old,
home so unlike the city boarding-place.
The village home had not been given
over to strangers. He wanted to keep
It as long as .he could, with tilings
just a§ his mother had left them; the
blue-rlmmed teacups that she had
placed la the old cabinet, the very
evening bf her sudden call to the
Great Beyond.
Carlton hoped to go back there some
day, when he could get over this dull
feeling of loneliness and when he
could save enough money to take the
vacation. Then he came to know
Ixzle. She had formed a habit of
stopping at his desk to say good-morn­
Ing.
’Isabel” Ware was her name.
“We never had a gardAi,” laughed
Izzle, “never wanted one. The little
high-up balcony Is good enough for
dad and mother and ine. How could
you endure living In the country?
Seems as if I’d die there.”
Carlton looked at her bright eager
face, her jaunty turban, aslant over
her dancing eyes. “Maybe,” he said
slowly, “you would.”
Kind heartedly izzle invited him one
evening to her home. “I’ve told moth­
er about you,” she confided, “and
mother says it's lonesome for a strange
young man in a city, so come and see
us whenever you feel like It”
The evening in pleasant Mrs. Ware’s
cozy apartment was such a comfort to
Carlton that he did go again, and
again. And so—he became engaged
to Izzle. It happened in a most nat­
ural manner one evening as they
walked to the theater together.
“I wish,” said Canton ttrneatly,
“that we could be together, just you
and I, Izzle, forever. I wish you
would marry me.”
“All right,” cheerfully responded
tha! poling person, as she gave his
arm a hug. “I will.”
But even as Carlton sat blissfully
bolding berjiand in the darkened the­
ater, disappointment came to him. He
had been picturing, half unconscious­
ly, bis Isabel moving about the old
loved home in Hillcrest while he, bis
diploma attained, sat In Judge Lam­
bert's -place, looked up to, depended
upon by his own people—the kindly
people of Hillcrest.
Isabel Interrupted his thoughts with
a low laugh. “CarlTe,” she whispered,
"look at the contrast of scenery. The
effect is pretty. On this side, tai*,
lighted buildings of the city, the
streets gay, thronged, C»n the other
side the village, long lonely spaces,
desolate houses with ftelr Intennlttent 1 ightZ Some contrast! Give me
the city every time to that wilder­
ness.”
—
Carlton stared steadily. He had
loved the silent pictured street. I: was
there that Ids memories wandered,
yearningly. Then with a start he put
his drcam aside. Izzle wax to be his
wife, Izzle must be happy; be^ would
sell the house in the country.
Carlton turned with a sigh. “Izzle,
dearest,” he said, “I am going our to
the village tomorrow, to m? abopt dis­
posing of my bouse. Would you like
to go with met’
*
‘
“I'd love to,” the girl responded
eagerly.
He was proud of her, as he walked
down the village street by her side;
proud, too, that she should witness
the welcoming smiles and greetings
bestowed upon him.
Isabel was Interested In the bouses,
some of them quaint, some preten­
tious.
When Carlton led the way down the
deserted path to the white house that
had been his home, she was silent,
sympathetic. She picked a white rose
from the porch vine to fasten nt her
breast, and she touched the blue cups
reverently. Her eyes grew misty as
she gazed on the picture of Carlton, a
boy leaning against his mother’s knee.
And as the girl sat before the old
square piano, the light coming through
the window made a picture of her
’ there—the picture of which Carlton
had dreamed.
Out In the garden at twilight they
walked together; then the man spoke
abruptly: “Let’s get away from all

August 28. We now took the Yel­
lowstone trail to the park. Had
travelled about an hour when we
were caught in a thunder storm In
a canycn at the. foot of the moun­
tains. We stopped, put the curtains
on. moved the suitcases into the car
and waited until it stopped raining.
The water came down the mountains
In all directions and stopped under
the car, leaving us stranded in a
lake with water up to the axles. The
women finally succeeded in getting
over to the railroad track, which was
only a short distance away, and went
ahead on foot for about four miles.
We got the car through all right,
with thb help of a nian working on
tbC road with his team. We struck
something worse, however, when we
reached the top of the mountain.
There had been a cloud burst just
ahead of us, and we travelled for
three miles through water, part of
the time up to the running board.
This was three miles of genuine mis­
ery, for we didn’t know how soon we
were going to drop into a hole out of
sight. It was rather slow progress,
but we got through in good shape
and camped that night In a field in
Idaho.
»
August 24. Left camp about 8:00
o'clock, and found plenty of mud.
It was showery all day, so we didn’t
travel very fast. We did not strlxe
any towns that day, but Mack stop­
ped and shot a nice big fish in a
mountain stream. We reached Poca­
tello quite late that night, but we
cooked tne fish just the same and
bad a good supper on the free camp
ground.
Enjoyed a good night's
sleep in spite of our hard.day's jour­
ney.
August 25. Left Pocatello about
8:00 o'clock and travelled on toward
the park. The roads were somewhat
better and we had good weather,
making it more pleasant to travel..
Idaho Falls was the next ’city we
came to. We stopped there about
two hours, and ate our dinner, leav­
ing at 2:00 p. m. and reaching a
small place called Rexburg at 5:00
o’clock. Our bedding was damp, so
we had to hang it up to dry.
August 26. Left Rexburg at 8:00
a. m., and found the roads fairly
good most of the way. We made
good time with nothing unusual hap­
pening except that we ran over one
dog and one horse. The dog didn’t
do any damage but the horse bent
one fender on the car; however the
little Ford "rambled right along."
We passed through a place called
Ashton, where we filled our gas tank
and supply cans. This was the last
town before we struck the park.
Gas sold here at 30c per gallon, and
we found Jt cost 40c in the park.
We had about 50 miles of poor roads
a new road cut through a pine forest.
Reached Yellowstone about 4:00
o’clock and settled down for the
night. August 28. We are now in the
Yellowstone National Park.
After
SO miles of hard traveling we reached
the west entrance just about sun­
down. We had to answer some ques­
tions, especially In regard to fire­
arms—if we had had any they would
have been sealed, as no one is allow­
ed to use them in the park. After
being examined, and paying the fee
of $7.50, we were allowed to pro­
ceed. and camped about three miles
from the entrance. We stayed here
all the next day, and on Sunday we
went to the lower geyser basin and
camped. The women did some wash­
ing. while we men went sight-seeing.
There was nothing much of import­
ance except the springs of boiling
water. The enxt day we went to see
Old Faithful geyser, which makes
eruptions regularly every hour,
shooting hot water and steam 150
feet into the air and continuing for
10 to 15 minutes at a time. At night
a searchlight fa turned on it, and it
is a sight wonderful to ' behold.
There are iota of other geysers in the
park, but this is the best one of all.
We camped a short distance from it,
In a pine grove.
August 29—We took a stroll some
distance from camp, end saw num­
erous springs of boiling water, and
several of boiling mud. At one
'place there were two only about 16
Inches apart. There are some fine
buildings made of pine logs, the
nicest 1 ever saw, and there is a
large hotel at Old Faithful camp, of
rustic pattern but very nice on the
inside.
. .
August 30—Ethel went to see Old
Faithful at sunrise, and says it sur­
passed any sight she ever saw.
About 4.00 o'clock we left for Lake
Junction. On our way we saw a
big black bear by the roadside and
we stopped and gave him some ap­
ples.’ We saw Kepler Cascade, also
the lake which divides near the
highway, part of the water flowing
toward the* Atlantic and part toward
the Pacific. After traveling 36 miles
we reached Lake Junction. Yellow­
stone lake at this point is beautiful,
with a fine beach and a background
of mountains. We camped here for
the night. About two o'clock a
couple of men came driving in with
a car and said the bears had driven
them out of their camp a few miles
back. We found a good place to
stay, with plenty of tourists for
company, and rested well all night.
August 31—Left camp at 8.00 a.
m., and visited a place called .Drag­
on’s Mouth. It is a large hole in the
side of the rock, like a cave, with a
stream of hot water coming out. We
passed more hot springs and lakes
before reaching Grand Canyon. Here
we visited Inspiration Point, an ele­
vation of 7400 feet. This spot re­
minds one of the destruction of all
things, a bottomless pit. From a
platform built out from the lodge we
could look straight down into the
canyon. At first we could not see
the bottom, but after looking a few

ON HIS OWN
By RUTH SONG

Mrs. Raymond regarded her young­
est son with resignation. Yet she felt
she would never, be resigned to his
Imjxrsslble ways.
"Johnnie," she remonstrated for the
third time, “I wish you'd sit straight
in your dialr and stop finger-combing
your hair. You look a fright."
Vaguely, like a sleep-walker. John­
nie smoothed his sandy locks, up­
standing by twisting fingers.
His mother sighed, thinking of his
two brothers.
She never nagged
them. Trim and alert they were, both
employed in a Boston bank. Such a
comfort. As for Johnnie—hopeless I
What he did down town where he
worked, she couldn’t imagine. Even
if he emptied waste-baskets or swept
floors, someone probably had to re­
mind him, as she was endlessly doing
at home.
These thoughts, audibly expressing
themselves, urged Johnnie finally to
go out. the parting Injunction to take
the key ringing in his ears.
Mrs.
Raymond’s
taut
nerves
waited for the slam of the door. In
spite of her caution to close It soft­
ly. then she settled down to sewing,
a habit that had grown through color­
less years of widowhood.
Later, the evening was brightened
by a neighbor’s visit. These friendly
chats under the sewing-lump, were
welcome. They meant an unburden­
ing of die day’s grievances.
“Do you have to nag your boys
endlessly, Mrs. Harst?" She was
squinting toward the light in an effort
to thread a fine needle with a coarse
thread. “My Elmer and Alfred never
bother, but Johnnie—’’ she paused,
sighing. The subject engulfed her.
“Your youngest?" the'neighbor In­
quired. “Bad company, maybe.’
The mother bristled.
“Oh. no. Johnnie's a good boy. It’s
his habits. I’m always reminding

neighbor temporised. "Where dues lie
work ?"
“At Jones, Allan &amp; Company. Law­
yers."
“What does he do?"
“Office-boy. 1 pivss. It’s all he's fit
for. Untidy. Shiftless. Never talks
about his work. It’s discouraging.”
A day or so after, this same neigh­
bor had business In the building
where Jones. Allan &amp; 'Company’s
offices were. No harm to peek at the
youngster for Ills mother's sake. She
didn’t remember him, now that he
hud grown up.
Impressed by the emblazoned door
that confronted her from the elevator,
she hesitated, looking around In hopes
of seeing touseled-hended Johnnie
with a waste-basket, or hiding in a
corner reading a paper novel.
Seeing no one. she timidly touched
the cull-bell on the outer door.
With startling alacrity the door
swung open, causing her to retreat a
step or two, and a tall, straight, keen­
eyed young man popped out to de­
mand her business with said Jones.
Allan &amp; Company.
So brisk and not-to-be-trlfied-witb
was he, that Mr*. Harst regretted the
errand which brought her.
She gasped, speechless, under the
disconcerting scrutiny of this young
guardian of the law offices.
“I—I beg pardon for disturbing you,"
she apologized, at a loss how to begin,
“but a neighbor of mine has a boy
working here. Being in the building
I thought I'd drop In and say ‘Howdydo’ to him. He wouldn’t remember me.
I guess, now he's grown big enough to

Alan started and went quickly to the [

and a lighthouse on the south coast,
in 1899 Marroni read a paper on
"Wireless Telegraphy" before the In­
stitution of Electrical Engineers to
Londbn.
Early in 1901 telegraphic commonicstion was established between two
points more than 250 miles distant
and at the end of that year Marconi
transmitted signals from- 1’oldhu, in
Cornwall to St. Johns, Newfoundland.
In 1902 he received on board the
steamship Philadelphia In the pres­
ence of the officers, good messages
on the tape when at a distance of
over 1.500 miles from the transmit­
ting station and Riguals ut over 2,000
miles. In Deeemlier, 1902, the station
established at Cape Breton. Nova
Scotia, under a contract with the Ca­
nadian government for transatlantic
wireless telegraphy, was put Into
communication with the Cornwall sta­
tion at Poldhu and Inaugural messages
were transmitted to the King of
England, the King of Italy and to
the London Times. In October, 1003,
the steamship Lucanla published a
dally wireless bulletin from messages
received from the Marconi stations.
A powerful station at Cllfden on the
west coast of Ireland was opened
early in 1907 for the establishment
of commercial relations with th*
American continent at Glace Bay.

Approximate figures are re{x»rted
from various states nnd centersxindicating th? present number of radio
sots. According to A. L. Benson of
St. Louis, division manager of the
A in er 1 mn Radio Relay league, about
90.000 radiophones are uscil In four
states as follows: Iowa, 23,000; Mis­
souri, 25,000; Nebraska, 22,000;
Kansas. 20,000. Tn St. Ixmls alone
there are some 2.200. The radiophones
chiefly carry concert music, but in
many localities farmers have installed
them to receive market reports.
Correspondence from Texas reports
263 stations In Dallas, ranging In size
from % K. W. to 20 watts, and almost
equal numbers in other cities of tho
state.
v Cleveland, Ohio, reports probably 15­
000 radio enthusiasts, 1.000 sending
stations to greater Cleveland, virtually
all amateur, and 10,000 receiving sets
used almost nightly* These estimates
exclude commercial rets. Cincinnati
reports 500 Rets.
Indiana has 4.500 amateur radio sets
and Indianapolis 1,000 radiophones.
Wisconsin has nearly 1.500 stations,
and the number Is sald’by Matcomb P.
Hanson, University of Wisconsin opera­

in Milwaukee and vldnity.
North Dakota has a number of re­

our relish for that sort of thing un­

spectator while the kid was taking
one of the big tires from Ed? Wood­

it with a new one. Several other
fellows, too, stood around there,
watching proceedings. And the kid
had forgotten to let the air out of the
tire,-and those big tires carry about
a hundred pounds pressure, and when
the kid got that rim unlocked the
whole darn world blew up, and we
know now what the boys who were
overseas mean when they talk about
shell-shock. We got it. We lost
our cigar, our cap, our equilibrium,
and we thought part of the old pro­

A man can't

such a decided improvement in many

At any rate, we could pick out sev­

WORLD’S PRETTIEST?

WHAT DO YOU SAY?

A few paid publicity agents of the
government are do'ng a rotten piece
of work in trying to perpetuate an
evil growing out of the war. During
the war period the newspapers of the
county were practically a unit in
freely donating space, .editorial and
personal- work to the government,
doing everything in their power to
advance the cause of the country in
its hour of trial. Since the end of
the war the government has quit ask­
ing free service from everybody else,
but it still continues through t-hese
piker publicity ageftts to endeavor
to “work” the newspapers of the
country for free publicity tor every
possible line of government endeav­
or. The government freely and
cheerfully pays everybody else whq,
renders it a service and pays in cash,
but it expects the newspapers to con­
tinue donating valuable space to ev­
ery possible government project.
Many of the newspapers of the coun­
try still fall for it, too, through sheer
patriotism, forgetting that they are
the only goa‘ left who is not getting
pay for bis services, but we notice
that more and more the publishers
are declining to keep on contribut­
ing, as long as everybody else gets
paid for his service.

na. the higher the untenna the louder
will be the signals &lt;»r voice produced.
The length of un miiennii for short
v.iive reception should not be less tharf
50 f&lt;&gt;et nor should It be longer tlmn
200 feet. The minimum wave length
to which a simple receiver can tie
adjusted for electrii-al resonance will
be above that used by amateurs If
the receiver be connected to dn an­
tenna 2OO feet or mure In length.
A simple radiophone receiver cap­
able of picking up radiophone sta­
tions similar to KDKA at East Pitts­
burgh. can tie assembled by a novice
for from $4 to $15, depending upon
the builder’s ability to use hls hands.
If the builder will construct most or
tils apparatus he will appreciate It
much more tind prbbably will under­
stand more about Its operation than
if he buys a set already made. How­
ever. for those who have not the abll
Ity or the time to spend constructing
their owu apparatus the following de­
scription will not only give the details
as to the cdpstruction of each com­
ponent part of a receiver but also
what standard ready-made parts can
t»e purchased and used tn its stead.
The material can be purchased at
any electrical supply store.
In erecting a simple antenna for
use with the receiver shown In the
diagram, the antenna proper and the
lead-in are of stramleul hard-drawn
copper wire, strand No. 22, costing
about 1 cent per foot. The two insulators are of molded materlnFand can
be purchased fnr about 25 cents each.
The antenna shown is supported netween u Kouse and a pole. It may be
found more coflveqlent to support it
between a tree and a house, two hduses
or even between two chimneys on
the same house. In bringing down the
lead-in care should be taker! that It
is kept as far away from grounded
material as possible and when bring­
ing through the wall or under the win­
dow Into the house it should lie brought
through some sort of an Insulating
tube, such as nibtier or bakelite.
In making tlfe ground connection
the same kind of wire can he used as
was purchased for the antenna. You
can clean a section of the waterpipe
thoroughly and solder the ground wire
MAKING THE TUNER

To make a tuner for this receiver,
the following raw material will be re­
quired :
Piece of cardboard tubing three
-Inches outside diameter and five
Inches long, costing about 10 cents.
100 feet No. 22 double '*otton-covered magnet wire costing 25 cents.
Standard slider (see sketch) for &gt;4

RADIO

British Scientists Have Some Success
In Wireless Transmission of
Motion Pictures.

British scientists are reported to
have met with more or less s access in
developing a method of transferring
motion pictures by radio.
Some
months ago a photograph was trans­
ferred by wireless from the Copen­
hagen newspaper, the Polltlken, to Eng­
land, and later from England to a ship
in mid Atlantic, so that the possibil­
ity of linking tlie movies with the new
art is not remote.
If perfected the new development of
the already versatile art will make It
possible for one to see on hls own re­
ceiving instrument thing* that are hap­
pening nt a great distance.
For
instance, a ship is sinking at sea. The
transmitting station of the vessel, in­
stead of sending a‘ messnge'of the dis­
aster, sends a picture thut anyone with
a receiving set will he able to Hee just
as the present broadcasting programs
are heard.
■
That nil sounds remote row, byt
the telephone was. considered even
more so, and the wireless, even after
Marconi's immortal message had
bridged the Atlantic, waa generally be­
lieved to be akin to the Idea of per­
petual motion.

TIPS TO THE RAOIOIST

A crystal detector cannot be
Attlsfacturlly amplified.
Insulate ends of aerial wires
with several small Insulators.
Wherever possible- run aerial
wires at right angles to electric
light wires. ,
.
The lead wire should be-the
size of the combined number of
wires in the aerial.
Gas piping makes a poor
ground, but the cold water pipe
ground is excellent.
A crystal detector Is never as
efficient as a vacuum tube detec­
tor no matter what Instruments
are connected to It.
Within three to five milei from
a broadcasting station Indoor

He left Luke and went To the win­
dow to see if the doctor was coming.
He had called the doctor because to hls!
firat sight of Luke he hud not recog­
nized that Luke was beyond tlie aid
of doctors and because to summon a
doctor under such circumstances was
the righK thing to do; but he hnd
thought of the doctor also as a wit­
ness to anything Luke might say. But
now—did he want a witness? He had
no thought of concealing anything for
his own suke or for his father’s; but
he would, at least, want the chance to
determine the circumstances under
which It was to be made public.
He hurried back to .Luke. “What

Luke had sunk toto a stupor; ?Jan

and had just come la.

Hls reply, he recognized, only made
her more certain that there was some­
thing the matter, but he could not add'
anything to It. He found Luke, when
he went hark to him. Mill in coma:
the bloodshot telnk stood out against
the ghastly grayness of hls fare, and
his stertorous breathing sounded
through the rooms.

Constance Sherrill had come In a
few momenta before from an after­
noon reception; the servants told her
at once that something was happening
at Mr. Corvet’s.
They had . heard
shouts and had seen a man pounding
upon the door there, but they had not
taken It ui&gt;on themselves to go over
There. She had told the chauffeur t&lt;^
wait with the motor and had run at
once to the telephone and called Alan;
hls attempt to put her off- made her
certain that what had hapjnmed was
not finished but waa still going on.
Her anxiety and the sense of their re­
sponsibility for Alan overrode at once
all other thought. Rhe told the serv­
ants to call her father at the office
and tell him something was wrong at
Mr. -Corvet’s: then she called her maid
and hurried out to the* motor.
“To Mr. Corvet’s—quUklyl" she di­
rected.
Looking through the front doors of
her car M it turned Into Astor street,
al&gt;e saw .a young man. carrying a doc­

him as a young doctor who was start­

was just being admitted aa one and
her maid reached the steps. Alan stood

"You ehontdn’t have come In,"
said. “I shouldn't have let you In;

"Do you know him?"
“Know’ him?" She shook her heati.

Through the doorway to the library

“Is he dead?" Constance heard him

“Not yet." the doctor answered ; “but
It won’t be long, now."
“There’s nothing you can do to makw

enough so that he will tell what ha»

The doctor shrugged. “Row many

Alun came bu&lt;*k to Constance. Out­

and within the house It hud growia

she could not even hear Luke's breuLiv­

him drive away. Returning, he drew
the .library portieres; then, coming:

she had thrown them, and held them

not even shocked, but Beard, who

While Mayo worked over Grlbbin,

The sad news spread quickly and
the body was removed to the under­

Not since the' tragic death of J.

marketing hardwood lumber. at
which he had been very successful,
owning at the time Qf his death sev­

Song—H. 8. boys quartette.
Address—C. 8. Marshall.
Mr. Marshall gave, an exception­
ally fine address, baaing bls talk on
what the world expects of a high
school graduate.
He' listed the
prime qualifications as courage, hon­
esty and stick-to-it-lveneM,
Bi-oocsmr champions.

N. H. 8. Ball Team Wins Title from
Hasting* in Ten Inning ConteM.

The best exhibition of high school
ball etfitr given on the local diamond
as well as one of the most thrilling
games to witness, was the unanimous
verdict of local tans who attended
the championship Contest between
the Hastings and Nashville teams at
Riverside park Tuesday afternoon.
Moreover, it ended perfectly satis­
factorily, the local'youngsters push­
ing over the winning tally in their
half of the tent]} inning and humb­
ling the chesty county seaters, who
claimed the bi-county honors on the
strength of their season's average
with other teams and'desyite the fact
that they had been beaten once be­
fore by our team.
Needless to say, both teams went
into the game determined to win. and
it was a battle royal.
For eight
innings not a score was made.
In
the first of the ninth, however. Chase
and Ryan singled in succession and
crossed the plate when Brumm fumb­
led Parker’s grounder and made a
wild throw to third.
This gave the,
visitors rather a discouraging lead,
in view of the way the game had
been going, but the Nashville lads
showed their pluck and fighting
spirit in a rally that also netted two
runs, tying the game.
Sprague
singled and took third on Johnson's
hit, scoring -a moment later on a
■passed ball.
Johnny stole second
and third, and made home easily onVance's sacrifice fly to right field.
In the tenth Hastings was re­
tired in order.
In Nashville’s half,
T. Townsend reached ' first when
Knlckerbocke” muffed his high fly to
right field.
Teddy stole second and
tallied the winning run when Hen­
derson made his third hit in the
'
game, a hot liner to left field.
Sprague was on the mound for
Nashville until the Inst inning and
pitched as mighty fine game,
He
was succeeded in the tenth by Ralph
Townsend, who continued the good
work, striking out the last two men.
Card. Hastings' southpaw, was also
effective, keeping the hits well scat­
tered. but was not given as good
suport by his teammates.
The umpiring was bandied by Ma­
honey of Hastings and Henton of
Nashville, alternating behind the
plate and on the bases, and their
work was absolutely impartial, neith­
er’of the teams having cause for
complaint.

would not have been so easy for him
to do that, he thought

CHAPTER XI

The Land of the Drum.
Alan went with Wassaquam into the
front library, after the Indian had
shown Spearman out
“This was the man. Judah, who came
for Mr. Corvet that night I was bust?”
"Yea, Alan,” Wassaquam said.
“He was the man, then, who came
here twice a year, at least, to see Mr.
Corvet F

you tell me now why he came here,
JudahF
“I have told you I do not know,”
Wassaquam replied. “Ben always ssw
him; Ben gave him money. I do not
know why.”
Alan had been holding his hand over
the papers which he had thrust Into
his pocket; he w ent back Into the
smaller library and spread them under
the reading lamp to examine them.
But as he looked the pages over now.
he felt a chill of disappointment and
chagrin. —
They
‘
did not contain any
narrative concerning Benjamin Corvet’s life; they did not even relate to
n single event They were no narra­
tive at all. They were—In Ills first
examination of them, he could not tell
what they were.
They consisted In nil of some dozen
sheets of Irregular site. Rome of which
had been kept much longer than oth­
ers. a few of wnlch even appeared
fresh and new. The three pages
which Alan thought from their yel­
lowed and worn look, must be the old­
est, and which must have been kept
for many years, contained only a list
of names and addresses. The remain­
ing pages, which he counted as ten
In number, contained nearly a hun­
dred brief clippings from newspapers;
the clippings had been very carefully
cut out they had been pasted with
painful regularity on the sheets, and
each had hern dated across Its face—
dates made with many different pens
and with many different Inks, but all
in the same Irregular handwriting as
the letter which Alan had received
from Benjamin Corvet.
Alan, his fingers numb tn his disap­
pointment. turned and examined all
these pages; but they contained noth­
ing else. He read one of the dippings,
which was dated “Feb. 1912."
“The passing awav of one of the
oldest residents of Emmet county oc­
curred at the poorfarm on Thursday
pt last week.
Mr. Fred Westhouse
was one of four brothers brought by
their parents Into Emmet county In
IMfl. He established himself here as
n farmer and was well known among
our people for rdany years. He was
nearly the Inst of his family, which
was quite well off at one time. Mr.
Westhouse’s three brothers and his
father haying perished in various dis­
asters upon the lake. His wife ilied
two years ago. He Is survived, hy a
daughter. Mrs. Arthur Pearl, of Flint."
He read another:
“Hallford-Spens. On Tuesday last
Miss Audrey Hallford. daughter of
Mr. and Sirs. Bert Hallford. of this
place, was united In the bonds of holy
matrimony to Mr. Robert Spens, of
Escanaha. All wish the young couple
well.”
He read another:
' :
"Born to Mr. and Mrs. Hal French,
a daughter, Saturday afternoon last
Miss Vera Arabella iSrnch. at her ar­
rival weighed seven and one-half
pounds."
This dipping was dated, in Benja­
min Corvet’s hand, “Sturgeon Bay,
Win., Aug. 191L" Alan put It aside
in bewilderment aud amare and took
up again the sheets be first had looked
at The names and addresses on these
oldest, yellowed pages had been first
written. It was plain, all at ths same
time and with the same pen and ink,

Purpose
This bank has one unalterable purpose—and
that purpose, we hope, is your purpose—to help this
country realize its maximum prosperity "in such a
way that all may share it
~
.

A bank is like a great power house.
When it
throws in the clutch, gets the community point of
view, and goes out to accomplish things it becomes
a great generator of public good. Hundreds of peo­
ple here have caught the spirit of this bank,, have
discovered that it is a public spirited institution with
a public service program. They have come in with
their deposits so that we could work together. If
you aren’t one of them of course you will be some­
time. That’s why this is directed to you; we want
your co-operation.

The same simplicity of construction is featured in the Six as in the Four, the inde­
pendent mounting of every mechanical unit affording an ease of adjustment and
disassembly never before attained. The coachwork, mounting and finish of these
four types are of exceptional quality, and particular attention has been givenjto the
smallest details. The Durant Tubular Back-Bone and the celebrated Ansted Motor
are important units in reducing running expense and upkeep.

“Roofing With Not a Kick in a Million
Feet”
Features That Make 'Em Smile
CONVENIENCE OF APPLICATION—You may apply Mule-Hide asphalt
shingles or roll roofing right over the old shingles and the job is done
without the worry of temporary exposure and without any fuss or muss.

PERMANENCE—Mule-Hide roofing contains nothing to rotjor fall to pieces,
and this means ultimate low cost and lasting service.
FIRE RESISTANCE—Mule-Hide offers complete protection against the dan- •
ger of flying sparks and embers, so much so, in fact, that insurance rates
are a great deal lower on homes which are covered with it.

NEAT APPEARANCE—Mule-Hide comes in rich, non-fading red and green
colorings which lend dignity and distinction to any home. Either single
or four-unit shingles may be used.

I
;
.

COMFORT—By applying Mule-Hide over your old roofs you retain the insulat­
ing value of the wooden shingles and, therefore, the upper rooms are kept
warmer in winter and cooler in summer.

(An editorial reprinted from the Chi­
cago Tribune ot March 3.) .
"Smiling Through" was here with
Jane Cowl last’year.
Norma Talmadge does It for the movies with
the advantages of' t^e movies.
On
the screen the Influence of the spirit­
ualised love story can go into every
town In the country. Ten thousand
people can see Miss Talmadge where
one could see Miss Cowl.
This is a tremendous increase in
influence and a reason for commend­
ing the exercise of a good influence
The drama itself is one which forces
the belief in the sublimation of hu­
man emotions, purposes, and char­
acter. It insists to many people who
have lost some of their belief in the
possibility of romantic good that hu­
man life can be developed Into forms
which are beautiful, clean, and spir­
itual. ir says that men and women
may have Ideals which are not lost
in contact with realities, that they
may be well bred, tenacious in their
love, simple in their lives, and clean
in their thoughts and emotions.
The minor sins of some movie pro­
ductions are lacking in the screen­
ing of "Smilin' Through." Charms
ot simplicity are npt so often sought
by a producer, out in Hollywood
they generally think that If wealth
is indicated in the characters It must
be represented by bathing girls jump­
ing into marble pools in the blua
moonlight and by doubling up the
butlers as the de luxe Uncle Tommers doubles up the Topsies.
The producer df “Smilin’ Through"
has kept it In the garden where it
belongs. Wealth Is Indicated, but
there Is only one servant, the house­
keeper. Good breeding creates the
atmosphere, and there are no of­
fenses against It.
In the charming garden the story
is unfolded with the miraculous
power of the camera to produce ef­
fects. The two love stories reveal
the steadfastness ot the lovers to sus­
tain affection above the shock of
tragedy and the test of time. That,
If only au illusion, is one which peo­
ple want to cherish aud one which
gives them inspiration to try to cher­
ish.
The old lover who loses his bride
by the shot of a jealous rival carries
his sublime romance into eternity
with him. The young lover who
nearly loses his girl through the pas­
sion of hatred the man has for the
family of the assassin and again
through the maiming be suffers In
war and the consequent self-depre­
cation. is. you know, as durable in
fealty and fine In emotions as the
older man.
People in their stumblings through
life try to keep their eyes fixed on a
star. We do not believe that In rea­
listic plays they should be deluded,
but we believe that a tonic of ro­
mance does the spiritual man good.
We believe that people will go into
a spiritualised world In “SmUin*
Through" and that they will return
from It with an Inspiration. They
may have been looking into a mirror
deceiving them with a grace and
beauty and worth which is not to be
found in their mirror of life.
Even as an illusion It is good.
Man should be noble if'only in bis
dreams.

Who remembers “Still Charlie?”
His name was CharMe Morford, and
he lived in Nashville in the early
days. His chief occupation was
whittling little paddles for the mus­
tard cups at the free lunch counter
at the saloons. One day he receiv­
ed quite an amount of money from
some mysterious source and short­
ly afterwards disappeared. Many
people thought he had been murder­
ed for his money, but it is more like­
ly that he went away of his own ac­
cord. At any rate, nobody In Nash­
ville ever beard from him again.
Queen what funny mix-ups one
gets over"the telephone occasionally.
Just last week, up at the cream sta­
tion, the phone rang and Henry Rem­
ington lifted the receiver from the
hook, and -here's what he . heard.
"This is Bernice Shaw talkilg, a'nd
two of my teeth are troubling me
something awful and I can’t rest and
1 can’t sleep and 1 wondered If you
would pull them out for me if I
came down tonight?". Now this man
Remington is a good sort of a scout
and be would do almost anything In
reason to relieve a lovely lady In dis­
tress, and all that, but Bernice rath­
er bad him buffaloed. Henry had
never pulled a tooth for a lady in all
bis born days, and he wasn’t at all
sure he could make a success of it,
so he advised Bernice to call up the
dentist and talk to him about it, and
Bernice d'd. And the dentist pulled
the teeth and everything is all. right
and Bernice is quite happy again.

What more had come to n.ian since
she had last heard of him?
Word had reached her father
through shipping circles In May and
again in July which tpld of Inquiries
regarding Uncle Benny which made
her and her father l&gt;elleve that Alan
was searching for his father upon the
lakes. Now these articles which had
arrived made plain ito her that he
would never find Uncle Benny; he
would lenm. through others or through
themselves, that Uncle Renny was
dead. Would he believe then that
there was no longer any chance pf
learning what h's father had d&lt;me?
Would he remain away because'’of
that, not lettlpg her see or hear from
him again?
She went bark and picked up tlie
wedding ring. The thought which had
come to her that this was Alan’s moth­
er's wedding ring, had fastened Itself
upon her with a sense of certainty. It
defended that unknown mother; it
freed her. at least, from the stigma
which Constartce’s own mother had
been so ready to cast. Constance could
not yet begin to place Uncle Benny
In relation to that ring; but she was
beginning to be able to think of Alan
and his mother. She held the little
band of gold very tenderly In her
hand; she was glad that, as the ac­
cusation against his mother had come
through her people, she could tell him
soon of this. She could not send the
ring to him. not knowing where he
was; that wns too much risk. Bnt she

could ask him to come to ner; tnts
gave that right.
She wit thoughtful for several min­
utes. the ring clasped warmly in her
hand; then she went to her desk and
wrote:
"Mr. John Welton,
"Blue Rapids, Kansas.
“Dear Mr. Welton:
"It is possible that Alan Contod
has mentioned me—or at least told
you of my father—in connection with
bls stay In Chicago. After Alan left
Chicago, my father wrote twice to bls
Blue Rapids ,ddress, but evidently he
bud instructed the postmaster there
to forward his mull and nnd not made
any change in those Instructions, for
the letters were returned to Alan's ad­
dress anu In that way came back to
us. We did not like to press inquiries
further than that, as of course be
could have communicated with us if
be had not felt that there was some
reason for not doing so. Now, how­
ever, something of such supreme im­
portance to him has come to us that
it is necessary for us to get word to
blm at once. If you can tell me any
address at which he can be reached
by telegraph or mail—or where a mes­
senger can find him—It will oblige us
very much and wlU be to his InteresL”
She hesitated, about to sign it; then,
impulsively, she added:
“I trust you know that. we have
Alan’s Interest at heart and that you
can safely tell us anything you may
know as to where he Is or what he
may be doing. We Sil liked him here
so very much. . . ."
She signed her name. There were
still two other letters to write. Only
the handwriting of the address upon
the package, the Manitowoc postmark
and the shoe box furnished clues to
the sender of the ring and the watch
and the other things. Constance her­
self could not trace those clues, but
Henry or her father could. She wrote
to both of them, tlterefore, describing
tlie articles which hud come and re­
lating what she had done.
The next noon she received a
wire from Henry that he was "coming
up." It did not surprise her, as she
had expected him the end of the week.
Late that evening, she sat with her
mother on the wide, screened veranda.
The lights of some boat turning in
between the points and moving swift­
ly caught her attention. As it entered
the path of the moonlight, its look was
so like that of Henry's power yacht
that she arose. It was his way. as
soon as he had decided to leave busi­
ness again and go to her. to arrive
as soon as possible; lhat had been his
way recently, particularly. So the
sight of the yacht stirred her warmly
and she watched while It ran Ln close.
Stopped and Instantly dropped a
dingey from the davits. She saw
Henry in the stern of the little boat;
It disappeared In tlie shadow of a
pier . . . she heard, presently, the
gravel of the walk crunch under his
quick steps, and then she saw him In
the moonlight among tlie trees. She
went down on tlie path to meet him.
"How quickly you came!"
“You let yourself think you needed
me, Connie!"
“I did. . .
He had caught her hand In bls nnd
he held it while he brought her to the
porch and exchanged greetings with
her mother. Then he led her on past
and into tlie house.
When she saw his face in the light,
there were aljms of strain In it
“You’re tired, Henry!**
He shook his head. “It’s Veen rot­

was mentally stoking all the way up
here, Connie. But first, where are
the things you wanted me to see?"
She ran upstairs and brought them
down to him. Her hands were shak­
ing now as she gave them to him; she
could not exactly understand why; but
her tremor Increased as she saw his
big hands fumbling as he unwrapped
the muffler and shook out the things

We have read with much interest
some literature broadcasted by the
State Department of Agriculture,
some of which we are passing on to
our readers because we believe they
will And it of much real interest.
The Department says in its intro­
duction:
&lt;
We present these few tacts of
Michigan, our great unexploited
State; neglected by the migration
which settled the West; seemingly
miraculously saved to feed the great
industrial centers which have sprung
up within and near her boundaries.
A land which holds thousands of
square miles With soil and climate
equal to the flnest phtfrie in the
country—virgin cut-over land, which
is still ringing with sounds of the
axe and the song of the lumberjack.
A land with nearly 200,000 farms,
among which are some of the most
fertile and oldest homesteads In the
Middle West. A land which has ev­
cry advantage of being close to the
large manufacturing centers, with
values untouched by the inflation
which has gripped the other farm
lands of the country.
The farm land of Michigan Is her
greatest resource. In its productivity -is the yield of energy and power
for human mind and body to build
a tremendous empire for the better­
ment of mankind.
Our industries, our schpols, and
our spiritual life are dependent on
the soil of Michigan.

In terms of percentage, therefore.
100 per cent of the deflation in cot­

By similar comparisons Mr. Ketthum demonstrates that there was a
68 per cent decrease in the market
value of cattle up to the end of the
Democratic Administration and a 22
per cent Increase after the Republi­
cans came into power. There was
a 93 per cent decrease in the price
of wool during the closing months of
the Democratic Administration and a
9 per cent increase since the Repub­

Mr. Ketcham finds that there was an

After presenting these figures Mr.

500 miles at 94.48 miles an hour—a relentless grind
Over a rough-finished, sun-baked concrete and brick
pavement at record-breaking speed—that is the gruelling
test Oldfield Cord Tires underwent successfully at Indian­
apolis Speedway May 30th. They were on the winner’s
car for the third successive year and on eight of the ten
finishing in the money, upholding the confidence success­
ful race drivers have in the trustworthiness and ability of
these tires to meet the greatest demands of speed, endur­
ance and safety. Their records in every other important
race have been equally as good.
Consider this achievement along with another test of Oldfield
quality made at Wichita, Kansas, this past winter and early
spring.
A

34,52$ miles on rutted, icy Kansas roads, running day
and night on a Studebaker stock car without a single tire
change. This test was made by a group of Wichita auto­
motive dealers in a tire, oil and gasoline economy run.
Mayor Kemp of Wichita was official observer and made
affidavit to the mileage and service given by Oldfield tires.
You may never subject your tire, to the gruelling experience
of Indianapolis nor the steady grind of bad wintex roads, but it
is good to know you can get such safety and mileage economy
by buying Oldfield tires. Ask your nearest dealer.

Something About Eggs

In this connection, we mjght men­
tion the village of Elk Rapids. It
is not a well advertised town and
when we drove In there last sum­
mer on a camping trip we didn't ex-"
poet anything out ot the ordinary.
We found it, however, the most
charming place In which we camped
• durinr our three weekb’ Itinerary,
and Its people very hospitable and
friendly. If the town was better ad­
vertised and had an improved camp­
ing place for tourists It would soon
became one of the m’ost popular re­
sort towns of the north country.

Mrs. Farmer: We wish to impress on your mind the fact
that we want you to get all for your eggs that is possible,
and we know you want to get all out of them you possibly
can. To do this, let’s co-operate. It is a disagreeable
task to tell a lady some of -the eggs are "rottenwe
don’t like to find them, neither do we like to say anything
about it, and if you will follow this you wont have rotten
or dirty eggs. "Keep plenty of straw in the nests, gather
the eggs at least once a day and keep them down cellar
or in a cool place.” Bring us nice, fresh, clean eggs and
we will pay you, this week, 22c or more per dos., but if
the eggs are dirty and small and poor we cannot pay as
much for them. Remember this—"A good article always
demands a better price.” Bring ’em to us.

All summing up to the fact that
it is better to nave a small reputa­
tion and live up to it, than to make
a splurge and let It lead to disap­
pointment.

VACUUM TUBE USED
AS RADIO DETECTOR
How This Device Depends on
Emission

and

Control

of

Electrons for Its Operation.
dradent of' tho radio column art
urged io dip each article and paste
it in a file book. The articles print­
ed are continuous and the entire
series will be valuable for reference.
The greatest advances made in the
past few years in the radio art have
been due In one way or another to
the use of vacuum tubes. In view °f
this fact a more careful consideration
of them will be of Interest.
' All of these tubes, known by. a va­
riety of names, such as radlotron. audlon. seriotron (trade names of the
manufacturer) depend upon the same
fundamental principles for their op­
eration. For tlie sake of simplicity
of brevity these will be referred to In
this column simply as vacuum tubes.
A vacuqm tube can be made to func­
tion as a detector, as an amplifier, or
ns an oscillator.
The vacuum tube depends .on the
emission and control of electrons for
its operation. The electron Is the
smallest subdivision of matter which
mankind recognizes and it carries the
smallest known charge of negative
electricity.
For years previous to
electron research it had been held by
scientists that matter wus built up of
distinct particles or units which they
called atoms and molecules. At first
the molecule was assumed to be the
smallest quantity of matter that could
have a separate existence or take
part in chemical action, but more vig­
orous research pointed to the fact that
the molecule Is made op of still sum ti­
er elements which are termed atoms;
that Is, a molecule may he composed
of several atoms. Then for a time it
was assumed that the atom was the
very smallest qintntlty of an element
that could exist, but later researches
have revealed that atoms may be
further subdivided Into tmrtlcles

called electrons. The apparent mass
of an electron is about one-elghteenhundreth part of that of an atom of
hydrogen whlcl/ is the smallest of die
chemical atoms.
According to the electron theory
an atom consists, of a definite num­
ber of electrons grouped around a
nucleus having a positive charge and
.so long as none of the component
electrons are dMven from the atom,
the latter possess no detectable charge.
The positive charge on the nucleus Is
said to be exactly neutralized by the
negative charges on the electrons
grouped about it.
.
Suppose now that by some means
an electron can be detached from the
atom. Then the atom becomes what
is known as a positive Ion and It ex­
hibits the properties of a positively
charged body..or in other words since
an electron which carries a negative
charge has been removed from the
atom which has equal positive and
negative charges, the portion of the
atom now remaining has a deficiency
of negative charge and arts like any
positively charged body.
On the other hand If some force can
be brought to bear that will add an
electron to a normal atom which Is
neutral as far as electrical charges
are measured, the result will be a negndye Inn. which will possess al! the
properties of a negatively charged
body. An atom then which has a
deficiency of electrons is called a pos­
itive ion and one having excess of
electrons Is called a negative Ion.
Sine*
electron carries a ne­
gative charge of electricity an elec­
tron represents a certain quantity of
electricity. Forcing electrons to move
from one point to another causes
electAclty to flow. The ability of any
medium to conduct electricity or allow
a current to flow through, it depends
upon the number of free electrons
available as carriers of charges.
It has been known for many years
that the space surrounding a piece of
’ heated metal is a conductor of
electricity. It has been demonstrat-

relenre of elndrens and that If an
Incandescent metal i&gt;e placed In a
trona will be Hherated from die In­

through the current meter, the plate
becomes electrically positive with re­
spect to the filament.
Since like charges repel and unlike
charges attract, there will be a move­
ment of electrons from • tly1 filament
to the positively charged plate^ and
the current meter will show a deflec­
tion which indicates U.at a current is
flowing In the circuit E7F-G-H.
Increasing the “B" battery voltage

Handling Vacuum Tubes.
When you handle the vacuum tubes
of your receiver great care should be
exercised that they are not knocked
about or that the elements are broken.
These little lamps are the heart and
soul of the set.
good way to op­
erate these tubes Is to keep the glow
Just a little below the critical point.

ADVICE FOR AMATEURS.

The voltages applied to the
plate circuits of amplifying

He straightened; be was very pale.
Would'coins that my father had in
his pocket all have been more than
twenty years old?"
She run und bent beside him over
the coins. ’Twenty years!" she re­
peated. She was making out the dates
of the coin* now herself; the markings
were eroded, nearly gone in some In­
stances, but In every case enough re­
mained to make plain the date.
“Eighteen-ninety — ISM —1889." she
made them out. Her voice hushed
queerly. “What does it mean?" she
whispered.
He turned over and re-examined the
articles with hands suddenly steady­
ing. “There are two sets of things
here," he concluded. “The muffler
and paper of directions—they be­
longed to my father. The other things
—It Isn’t six months or less than six
months that they’ve lain in'sand and
water to become worn like this; It's
twenty years. My father can’t have
had these things; they were some­
where else, or some, one else had them.
He wrote his directions to that per­
son-after June twelfth, he said, so^l
was before June twelfth he'wrote It;
but we can’t tell how long before. It
might have been In February, when he
disappeared; It might have been any
time after that. But if the directions
were written so long ago, why weren't
the things sent to you before this?
Didn't the person nave the things
then? Did we have to wait to get
them? Or—was It the Instructions to
send them that he didn’t have? Or, If
be had the Instructions, was he wait­
ing to receive word when they were
to be sent? You thought these things
proved my father was dead. I think
they prove he Is alive! Oh, we must
think this out!”
He pared up and down, the room ; she
sank Into a chair,'watching him. "The
first thing that we must do," he said
suddenly, “Is to find out about the
watcii. What is the 'phone number
of the telegraph office ?"
She told him, and he went out to the
telephone; she sprang up* to follow
him. but checked herself and merely
waited until he came back.
“I’ve wired to Buffalo,” he an­
nounced. "The Merchants’ exchange.
If It Is still In existence, must have a
record of the presentation of the
watch."
“Then you’ll stay here with us until
an answer comes?"
“If we get a reply by tomorrow morn­
ing; I'll wait till then. If not, I’ll ask
you to forward It to me. I must see
about the trains and get back to Frank­
fort. I can cross by boat from there
to Manitowoc—that will be quickest
We must begin there, by trying to find
out who sent the package."
She helped him put the muffler and
the other articles Into the box; she no­
ticed that the wedding ring was no
longer with them. He had taken that,
then; It had meant to him all that she
had known It must mean. . . .
. In the morning she was up very
early; but Alan, the servants told her,
'had risen before she had and had gone
out. The morfting, after the cool north­
ern ‘night, was chill. She slipped a
sweater on and went out on the veran­
da, looking about tor him. An Irides­
cent haze shrouded the hills and the
bay; In it she heard a ship’s bell strike
twice; then another struck twice—then
another—and another—and another.
The haze thinned as the sun grew
warmer, showing the placid Whter of
the bay on which the ships stood dou­
ble. She saw Alan returning, and
knowing from the direction from which
he came that he must have been to the
telegraph officer she ran to meet him.
"Was there an answer?’ she inquired
eagerly.

Tiresione
ZGUM- DIPPED CORDS

-and Their Jligh/fUeage, Records
The high mileage records of Firestone Cords continue to en&gt;phasize the fact that Firestone methods are different and better.
These records, steadily increasing in number and in mileage
totals, justify the Firestone contention that there is one best
way to build tires.
Among the primary sources of Firestone extra mileage is
double gum-dipping—the saturation of the cord plies in a vat
of liquid gum—thus coating each cord and virtually eliminating
internal heat and friction.
Another is Firestone air bag curing, with its 200 pound
pressure, which places every cord accurately and equalises the
tension.
.
By blending the rubbers of different plantations and types,
and by tempering it before mixing, Firestone men add still
more mileage.
•
Many cord tires are good—a few are better—Firestone users
say one is best
z
Those who have already experienced Firestone mileage, have
stoppad shopping and experimenting—they have made these
cords standard equipment. Investigate your friends’ success
with Firestone Cords—and buy your next tire accordingly.
Come in and get your share of extra mileage.

Any fool can recognize a good
thing when the other fellow hps it.’
. The cultivation of a fraternal
community spirit has much to do
with the success of a local communi­
ty. Where the population Is limit­
ed the difference or selfishness of a
single individual exerts a depressing
effect upon others, and this attitude
of pessimism in time permeates the
whole community. Men and women
who really desire to advance the In­
terests of themselves and their
neighbors find it difficult to work to
advantage when disaffected ones are
continually throwing a wet blanket
over every project that Is proposed.
Investigation and discussion are
both commendable and desirable, but
pessimistic remarks and pulling
back in the community harness are
on a par with a balky horse. They
render more or less futile the efforts
of those who would push forward
to ultimate achievement. A com­
munity of brothers working togeth­
er in harmony is far better than one
of opponents pulling in opposite di­
rect ions.

rents of extremely high frequency de­
termines Its application In ratlin.
Due to Its ability to rectify high freinency nltermitlng currents the twoelement (filament and phite) .vncuum

a defector.
Fig. VI Is n simple radio receiving

Dr. J. A. Fleming of London. Eng­
land, was tjie first to use « two-ele­
ment tube of tiie type Just described
as a .medium of rectifying high fre­
quency radio currents. % Fleming called
his product a valve because it would
let current flow In one direction but
not in the other direction. The-Flem­
ing valve as a forerunner of die vacu-

plate circuit without changing the
plate potential or the filament temper­
ature.
The characteristic curve of a three
electrotie vacuum tube Is shown in
Fig. VIII. This diagram shows the
relation of grid potential to plate
current, assuming that the filament
temperature nnd plate voltage remain
constant.
It cun lie seen from the curve that
by applying a negative potential of
value E to tbe grid, the plate cur­
rent ran be reduced to zero. The neg­
ative charge ou the grid will have the
effect of a negative potential E with
respect to the filament, making the
negative charge so strong around the
filament that the electrons cannot
leave It. On the other hand. If a posi­
tive potential of value F be applied

um tulie of today marked n very im­
portant step in the progress of the
radio art. The Fleming valve, how­
ever, In its original form was not much
better than other forms of rectifiers
then In use and. owing to the greater
ruggedness and row of manipulation
of the latter, did not come Into gener­
al use as a detector.
Dr. Lee DeForest. an American,
greatly improved the Fleming valve
by adding a third electrode culled the
grid, which served the- function of a
control element ami thus imide it pos­
sible to utilize the feeble Incoming sig­
nal currents to control more powerful
local currents. The three-electrode
vacuum tube of DeForest is the tube
used so extensively today.
The third element v\hlch Is allied a
grid and from which the three-elec­
trode vacuum tube derives'its name

filament and the plate in the path of

Any device which will pass electrici­
ty in one direction and will wholly or
partially obstruct the flow in the op­
posite direction Is termed a rectifier,
because when connected in the path
of an alternating current it will sup­
press one-half of each cycle and there­
fore the circuit will be traversed by
pulsating direct current. A rectifier
also is said to possess unidirectional
conductivity, meaning, of course, that
It will conduct electricity in one dl-

when the filament C-D 1a brought to

at a positive potential with respect
to tbe filament by the ”B” battery.
Now If the grid is made positive
with respect to the filament. It Is pos­
sible to accelerate the flow of the elec­
tron stream from the filament to the
plate; If the grid U made negative
with respect to the filament, the flow
of the electron stream from the fila­
ment to the plate will be retarded.
Or In other words, by making the grid
positive, or negative with respect to
the filament, it is possible to increase
or counteract the spac^ charge. Tiu

SEMPRAY JO-VE-NAY
Toilet Preparations
Ladies, if you received one of the sample packages
of Sempray Jo-ve-nay goods which we mailed last
week, we ask that you give it a fair trial. We know
you will appreciate its merit.
Our line includes the Vanishing Creme, the Pink
Complexion Cake and the Face Powder. These are
highly recommended for their softening, soothing
and healing qualities. An application of the powder
after using the vanishing creme makes a dainty, per­
fect toilet. The face powder comes in white, flesh
and brunette. The complexion cake is a combina­
tion of oils in cake form which leaves the skin soft,
smooth and thoroughly clean.

Recently the Department of Agri­
culture in describing a simple brush­
ing device that could be set up out­
side the farmhouse back door recog­
nized this bugaboo of the neat fann­
er's wife—recognized the fact that&gt;the
man who tills the soil has an ag­
gravating habit of entering his house
with muddy boots and the other fact
that the woman who spends hours of
her time and calories of energy keep­
ing -hej house clean and neat, scolds
and frets when that mud is traped
about the house. Perhaps the best
solution is this three-way brush that

morning discovered in the alley that
runs back of the store the mark of
an auto tire with a peculiar tread—
a kind that none of them had ever
observed before—and it looked like
it might be some sort of a clue. They
spent quite a bit of time trailing
that tire around town and finally
run it right down to the door—of
John Lake’s garage. Weil, some
fellows might have had trouble ex­
plaining how it happened that their
automobile had' so much business
around in that particular alley, but
as John's home and the place of bus­

to back up to the same alley rendered

POSITION AND SIZE
OF GRID IMPORTANT
Determine Value of negative Po­
tential Necessary to Reduce
the Plate Current to Zero.

In using a three-electrode vacuum
tube In a radio set It is preferable to
maintain the grid negative wlfh re­
spect to the filament-in order to re­
quire the minimum amount of energj
in the control of the plate circuit.
The relative position of the grid,
with respect to the filament and the
Diate and the size of the mesh of the

grid, determine the value of K. E is
the negative potential which must be
applied to the grid Id order to reduce
tlie plate current to zero. Tbe value
pf F. which Is the positive grid poten­
tial that will cuuiie the maximum or
Maturation current to flow in the plate
circuit, is also determined by the rela­
tive position of the grid with respect
to.the filament and plate. If the grid
is of very fine mesh, the value of E

Ing through the small mesh of tlie [
grid on their Journey from tbe fila­
ment to the plate will negatively
charge the grid and will be repelled.
Similarly a hiuuII positive charge ap­
plied to a fine mesh will tend to ac­
celerate the velocity of the electrons.
In case of a very coarse mesh grid,
the electrons can pass through the ap­
ertures in the grid without coming iu
so close to tlie charge on it and a
relatively high potential will be re­
quired on tlie grid to control the elec­
tron stream, or in other words, the
current flowing in the plate circuit
Referring to Fig. VIII, O-G, is the
current that will flow in the plate cir­
cuit whvn there is no potential ap­
plied to the grid. Suppose a positive
potential as O-I is applied to die grid.
The cvrresi&gt;onding plate circuit current
will be I-D or B-D, more than it was
when the grid hud no ppteutial ap­
plied to it

A negative potential of O-H rs n«w

in value to O-I, but opposite In sign.
The application of the negative po­
tential when applied to tlie grid will
cause the plate current'to be reduced
to a value H-C or'A-C, less than it
was when there was no potential ap­
plied to tbe grid. So it is seen that a
negative potential when applied to the
grid does not reduce the plate circuit
current us much as the same positive
potential increased the plate circuit
current. This irregular conductivity of
tlie tube Is made use of when the tube
is used as a detector or rectifier oi
radio signals.
The incoming radio signal Is a high
frequency alternating current Let us
apply an alternating difference of po­

ue is equal to O-I and whose maximum
negative value is equal to O-H, to,the
grid of the three-electrode tube

Through tbe first quarter of a cycle,

Big Ships' Radio.
Tbe radio equipment of the ships
Paris and Lafayette is described in a
recent issue of Radioelectricity. On both
steamers a five-kilowatt tube trans­
mitter has been installed with a wave
range of between 2,000 and 9,000 me­
ters. A five-kiiowatt motor-generator
set Is used to produce the plate-high
tension for four rectifying and four
oscillatory tubes, and the low voltage
current for the heating of the filament
of these tubes. Both vessels are
equipped with a radio range-finder, or
“radio goniometer," which, reduced to
plain English, means a radio compass.
A distance of 8,400 kilometers has
been covered safely by messages sent
from the transmitter of thr Paris.

Radio for Animal Training.
Exjierlments with the radiophone as
an aid in animal training are to be

steHHirr; they were very cl«»se now. so
close that the searchlight, which had
turned to keep «»t» the oilier vessel,
slud above its shimmering deck and
lighted only the spurs; and. us the wa­
ter rose and fell between them, the
ships sucked closer. Number 23 shook
with an effort; It seemed opposing with
all tbe power of its screws some force
fatally drawing It on—opposing with
the last resistance l-efore giving way.
Then, as the water fell again, the ferry
seemed to'slip and be drawn toward
tbe other vessel; they mounted, side
by side . . . crashed . . . recoiled
. . . crashed again. That second crash
threw all who hud nothing to hold by,
fiat upon the deck; then Number z25
moved by; astern her now the silent
steamer vanished iri the snow.
Gongs boomed below; through the
new confusion and the cries of men,
orders began to become audible. Alan,
scrumbling to his knees, put an arm
under old Burr, half raising him; the
form encircled by his ano struggled
up. Tbe skipi&gt;er, who -had knocked
Burr away from tlie wheel, ignored him
now. .The old man, dragging himself*
up and bidding- to Alan, was staring
with terror at the snow screen behind
which the vessel had dlsnpi&gt;eared. His
lips moved.
' “jt was a ship!” he said; he seemed
speaking more to himself than to Alan.
••Yes,’’ Alan said. “It was a ship;
and you thought—”
■
“It wasn’t there!" the wheelsman
cried. “It's—it’s been there all the
time all night, and I’d—I’d steered
through it ten times, twenty times,
ewery few minutes; and then—that
time it was a ship!”
Alan's excitement grew greater; he
seized the old man again. 'You thought
it was tlie Miwaka!" Alan exclaimed.
"The Miwaka! And you tried to steer
tlirough It again."
"The Miwaka!" old Burr’s lips reit­
erated the word. "Yes; yes—the Mi­
waka !"
He struggled, writhing with some
agony not physical. Alan tried to hold
him, but now tbe old man was beside
himself with dismay. He broke away
and started aft. The captain's voice
recalled Alan to himself, as be was
about to foUow. and he turned back to
iM wneemoftM.
The secund officer, who had gone be­
low to ascertain the damage done to
tbe ferry, came up to report. Two of
tbe compartments, those which bad
taken the crush of the collision, hud
flooded instantly; tbe bulkheads were
holding—only leaking a little, the offi­
cer declared. Water was coming into
a third compartment, that at the stern ;
the pumps were fighting this water.
Tbe shock had sprung seams else­
where; but if the after compartment
did not QU, tlie |nnni&gt;s might handle
the rest.
Alan was at the how again on look­
: out duty, ordered to listen and to look
for the little boats. He gave to that
duty all tils consciotia attention; hut
through his thought, whether he willed
It or not. ran a riotous exultation. As
he paced from side to side and balled
and answered halls from the bridge,
and while he strained tor sight and
hearing through the gale-swept snow,
the leaping pulse within repeated*
“I’ve found him! I've found him I"
Alan held no longer possibility of
doubt of old Burr'e Identity with Ben­
jamin Corvet, since the old man had
made plain to him that he was haunt­
ed by the Miwaka. Since that night
in the house on Astor street, when
Spearman shouted to Alan that name,
everything having to do with the se­
cret of Benjamin Corvet's life had led,
so far as Alan could follrw it, to the
Miwaka; all the change, which Sher­
rill described but could not account
for, Alan had laid to that Corvet
only could have h*en so haunted by
that ghostly ship, and there had been
guilt of some awful sort In the old
man a cry. Alan had found the man
who had sent him away to Kansas
when he was a child, who had support­
ed him there and then, at last, sent
for him; who had disappeared at bls
coming and left him all his posses­
sions and his heritage of disgrace, who
had paid blackmail to Luke, and who
had sent, last. Captain Stafford’s
watch and the ring which came with
It—the wedding ring.
Alan pulled bls hand from bls glove
and felt In bls pocket for the little
band of gold. What would that mean
to him now; what of that was he to
learn? And. as be thought of that,
Constance Sherrill came more insist­
ently before him. What was he to
learn for her, for bls friend and Ben­
jamin Corvet’s friend, whom he. Unde
Benny, had warned not to care for
Henry Spearman, and then had gone
away to leave her to marry him? For
she was to marry him, Alan had read.
More serious damage than first re­
ported ! The pumps certainly must be
lasing their fight with tbe water in the
port compartment aft; for tbe bow
steadily was lifting, the stern linking.
The starboard rail too was raised, and
the list had become so sharp that wa­

Pointed straight Into the gale now;
lout ago she had ceased to circle and

struggled with all her power against
the wind and the seas, a desperate In­
sistence throbbing in the thrusts of
the engines; for Number 25 was flee­

dared not turn to the nearer eastern
shore to expose that shattered stern

THE DELIVERY BOY SAYS
“The reason we

August 9th is the final date for
disabled, veterans of the World War
to apply for certificates of Injury to
aid them In obtaining compensation,
and the United States veterans' bu­
reau is urging all injured ex-service
men to6 take note of the time limit
and act accordingly.
By provision of the war risk in­
surance act as amended last year,
failure to obtain this certificate of
injury may prevent veterans from
receiving compensation, in case they
fail to make application for it with­
in five years after the date of dis­
charge.
It is not necessary to file a claim
for compensation or make any other
forma! action In order to obtain the
‘certificate of injury.
The applicant
'need write only to the director of
the United States veterans' bureau
-Jat Washington and give his name,
rank, organization, date of enlist'ment apd discharge, and relate the
circumstances under which the &lt;lfs:ease or injury was Incurred.
i it is estimated that thousands of
veterans throughout the country
who sustained in the service an In­
jury or disease likely to result in
j death or disability have not applied
j for certificates and the veterans bu' reau is anxious that they should ex­
ercise the right to use these certifi. cates In obtaining compensation.

How many Christians appreciate
prayer? God has His work .to be
done, and did it ever occur to you
that He has His own way of putting
it across? Our Saviour set us all
the example of praying to God for
His help and blessing in carrying on
His own work. And so must we hit
.followers pray God to help us live
for Him, to help us in winning souls
ta Jesus, and to help us In things
material.
A definition of prayer is found in
t.he lines given us by James Mont­
gomery:
“Prayer is the soul's sincere desire.
Unuttered or expressed.
The motion of a hidden fire.
That trembles in the breast.
"Prayer-is the burden of a sight.
The falling of a tear,
The upward glancing of an eye,
Whfn none but God is near.
"Prayer is the simplest form - of
speech
J
That Infant lips can try;
Prayer, the sublimest strains that
’
reach
The Majesty on high.
"Prayer is the Christian's vita!
brer.th,
The Christian’s native air.
His watchword at the gates of death;
He enters heaven with prayer." '

Failure aa Shown in Your Palm
THE HAND OF A CLERGYMAN

TD ELIGIOUS feeling Is shown by
■^fingers of conical shnpe, with long
first joints. This shows, also great
power of Intuition. A cross upon the
mount of Apollo, lying at the. base of
Apollo, the ring finger, is held to Indlcate deep religious feeling by some
writers of xeidromancy.
»
Dignity Is, of course, absolutely essential to the successful clergyman,
and this Is marked In the hand by a
long and strong third or lowest pha­
lanx of the finger of Jnplter, the forefinger.
If the third phalanx of the finger of
Satorn, or middle finger is long and
strong, it Is an Indication of generosity
of nature. The second or middle pha­
lanx of the third or ring finger (the
finger ot Apollo) allows,, if strong and
well develope&lt;l. a love of work, and
great energy In carrying out one's de­
signs.
Of course, the clergyman. If he Is to
preach well, must he pnsaesi»p&lt;i of elo­
quence. and this trait Is marked In the
hand by a strong tip of the little finger,
the finger of Mercury.

Modern plumbing in the brine is not only a labor saver
but also adds materially to the value of your property,
and at present prices the cost of installation is far from
prohibitive. My years of experience in the plumbing
trade enables me to give you as good service and work­
manship as you can obtain anywhere, and I will be glad
to furnish you with an estimate on the cost of either
complete plumbing units or any repair or alteration
work you want done.

It’s time, toop-to figure on that heating plant for next
winter. I have the Rudy and Mueller furnaces, both of
which are warranted to solve your heating problems in
a satisfactory manner. Better have one installed in
your home before fall. &lt;

And we can define it no more aptly than as the pressure of a great
preference.
■
. .
■
Subtly, but none the less surely, the influence of this preference is
making itself felt in every nook and corner of the state.
It shows itself in the most unexpected places, at the most unlooked
for times.
You hear a man say Federal Bonds are Better Bonds and you find
upon inquiry that he has never bought a Federal Bond, that he has
never been approached by a Federal representative, and that he has
never read a Federal advertisement.
And yet he clings steadfastly to his belief that Federal Bonds are
literally Better Bonds.

He cannot tell you how he knows that, or why exactly Federal z
Bonds are Better Bonds. But he believes it as firmly as though he
owned Federal Bonds.
'
—

And when that man comes to make his first purchase of a real
estate bond he buys a Federal Bond.
.
There is an explanation. It is simply that when a person feels
sciously or sub-consciously, to those about him, and these shortly
find themselves possessed of that feeling, and they in their turn
pass it on to still others.

It is a never-ending process, working in ever-widening circles.

Throughout Michigan there is a widespread conviction that Federal
Bonds have no equal, and this conviction on the part of many is so
strong that it has taken on the nature of a pressure upon the
thoughts of other people.
And so, when all is said and done, it is the pressure of this prefer­
ence for Federal Bonds that is slowly molding the thoughts of
thousands upon thousands of people into the same great common
thought that Federal Bonds are Better Bonds.

Was receiving some message over the

shoulders; he fumbled In bls pocket

her that he felt -wfiut he dreaded ap­

She heard footstep's In the larger
room coming toward the office door.
Henry was In suspense. A rap came
st. the door. He whitened, and wet his
lips.
“Come in,” he summoned.
One of the office girls entered, bring­
ing a white page of paper with three
or four lines of purple typewriting up­
on it which Constance recognized must
be a transcript of a message just re­
ceived.
She started forward at sight of it,
forgetting everything else; but hwlook
the paper as though he did not know
she was there. He merely held it un­
til the girl had gone out; even then
he stood folding and unfolding it, and
bls eyes did not drop to the sheet.

having 'seen her. Constance was

"Two lifeboats!” Constance cried.

He had read some other significance

understanding of conditions in the
storm, he had been able to hold no
hope from wliat had been reported.
That was the only way she could ex­
plain to herself as he replied to her;

Experts Tall the Safe Way to Employ
This System for Radio
Receiving.
Since the announcement'- that the
bureau of standards of’the depart­
ment of commerce had perfected a
method of employing electric light
wires in place of aerials.\conslderable
experimenting has been done by vari­
ous amateurs, some of whom have had
good luck white others succeeded
only In blowing a large number of
fuses.
*
’’*
Engineers of an eastern electric light
company Jiave offered the following
suggestions to amateurs:
"First—Successful results have been
obtained so fur only with audion bulb
sets. Crystal sets receive the signals,
but for some reas&lt;»n they are very
weak and indistinct.
"Second—Np set should be used on
this system without air or oil filled
condensers, placed in series with either
the antenna circuit or the ground
circuit—preferably In the antenna
circuit.
"Third—A fuse not heavier than
one-half ampere should be used in
series and just ahead of the antenna
connection.
“Fourth—An ordinary separate de­
tachment plug—1. e„ one with two
blades connecting the two separate
halves of the plug—is used. Only one
wire la run from this plug, the other
binding screw left undisturbed. This
single conductor wire should be long
enough to reach "from a handy electric
light socket to the table where the
Instrument - is located and should
terminate In the fuse mentioned above.
In case an externally connected con­
denser Is used, the circuit should be
run from the fuse tn the condenser
and from the condenser to the anten­
na binding post of the receiving set.
“In seta where the condenser as
built into the Instrument the connec­
tion from Hie fuse is run directly to
the antenna binding post. AU’other
connections should l»e exactly the

UndersheriflS Harry Ritchie made
another trip out t.o the famous moonl^hine camp in Johnstown Tuesday

ANALYZE MISTAKES
XXTHEN you make a mistake, find
out W)iy yOU iUmie it. Think it
over a few minutes. Fix in your mind
the manner In which It happened. Be
ashamed of It, if it. to a bad mistake.
Scare yourself about it, if it to a
'dangerous one.
The child never forgets the mistake
.he makt-s when he puts his finger In
the fire. That mistake he lias to think
about for a long time afterward. One
of -the kind is always enough for
him.
Admiral Penrj’s Eskimo dogs made
the mistake of eating all that was
given them when they were encamped
in the Arctic regions waiting for one
of Ills dashes to the pole. Apparently
they remembered that mistake when
die food ran out and some of their
number had to be eaten.
When-£he survivors, of the pack re­
turned to America they were very
sparing of the food that was given
them, and buried the remainder. More
than.that they scoured the neighbor­
hood for food to bury. They had had
time to think over their mistakes.
Most people have much the same
sort of work to do every working day.
Those who do not think over their
mistakes continue to make them pnd
for the most part they always stay
where they are.
Men who make the same mistakes
rtwice never get the confidence of an
employer.
Those who tiilnk about their mis­
takes, nnd tlud out wavs to eliminate
them, are those who get along.

Is turning more ground with less draft and
less expense than any plow made, and the

plow has the quick detachable share, which
can be placed in five minutes.
You may .however lose all this splendid work
if the Drill you use fails to do perfect work.
The JOHN DEERE or ONTARIO will

the shore patrols—pacing the Ice hum­

upon the lake, appeared vaguely in
the dusk when she had gone about
two miles. She came, three quarters
of a mile farther on, to a second man;
about an equal distance beyond she
found d third, but passed him and
went on.

tlie yellow glow of a window appeared,

NEW RADIO FILTER A MARVEL
SPARKS:

Campbell Device That Separates Tele­
phone and Telegraph
Messages.
Although much has been said and
written about the remarkable filters
employed by the telephone lines and
by advanced radio workers for the
separation of telephone and telegraph
messages, says tbe Scientific Ameri­
can, It remained for Dr. Frank
B. Jewett, chief engineer of the West­
ern Electric company, to demonstrate
bow the filter permits of transmitting
radio telephone and telegraph mes­
sages simultaneously, and of separating
these messages at the receiving end,
at n meeting of the American Insti­
tute of Electrical Engineers.
•
The present electrical filter is the
Invention of Dr. G. A. Campbell, a
telephony engineer, and makes it pos­
sible to separate the various frequen­
cies at which the individual tele­
phone and telegraph messages are car­
ried. Ths detected electrical current
In a radio receiving set is passed
through the filter which separates the
frequencies of the telegraph message
from those of tbe telephone.
The filter differs materially from the
ordinary tuned circuits familiar to the
radio enthusiast, since It separates not
single frequencies but bands of fre­
quencies of any predetermined width.
Tbe filter makes it possible to sep­
arate tiie band (,f frequencies com­
prising the telephone message from the
band comprising the telegraph mes­
sage. It can also separate one tele­
phone message from another.

British House of Lords.
John Wilson Croker. In a letter writ­
ten shortly before his death in 1857, • w»
mentions that going over to the lords
from the commons one evening he no­
ticed, as a fact, “not unimportant to
constitutional history,” that every one
of the 30 peers then present had sat
with him in the house of commons.
“It shows," he says, “how completely
the house of commons has t&gt;een the
nursery of the bouse of Jonls." There
are Usiislly In the house of lords about
200 peers who have sat in the house
of commons.
After That He Evaded Traps.
“Why have 1 never married T’ the
confirmed bachelor repeated a leading
question. “Weil, once upon a time In a
crowd I trod &lt;£i a lady’s gown. She
turned, furiously, beginning, 'You
clumsy brute!’ Then she smiled sweet­
ly. and said: 'Oh, I beg your-pardon,
I thought you were my huShwnd. No,
It really doesn’t matter In the least.’
And when 1 came to think It over I deelded that I’d better let marriage
,
.alone.
”
Always Something.
And if they can find nothing else tf
disagree about, a happy married cou­
ple can quarrel for hours over wheth­
er It is worse to put the mudlags
brush in the ink or the pen in the mu­
cilage.

One could say that Federal issues of
first mortgage real estate
serial gold bonds are sold almost over night.

Considered literally, of course, this is not true. We grant that freely. We
phrased it that way simply as a form of speech to convey the remark­
able rapidity with which investors absorb the issues we bring forth.
The eagerness with which Federal Bonds are sought is a matter of
open comment, we are informed, even among other real estats bond
houses.
You, yourself, have doubtless noticed the advertising of
issues
of other companies continued sometimes thruout the course of a
whole year.

Contrast th»t with the fact that only one issue of Federal Bonds has
ever been advertised more than twice.
This occurred some years ago when the list of Federal Bond buyers
was far less large than it is today and, further, the issue in question
was the largest ever brought out by a Michigan real estate bond
company.

As a matter of fact the vast majority of Federal Bond issues are
merely announced once and the ensuing flood oi orders makes it
unnecessary longer to argue their merit.
Our own research men correlated these figures from an exhaustive
analysis of our business since the inception of the Federal Bond &amp;
Mortgage Company years ago.
We present them to you as being well worth your mature and serious
consideration.

For they do establish in an undeniable manner the intense difference
in desirability between other bonds and Federal Bonds.
Frankly, if the specific Federal issues we recommend from time to
time were difficult to sell we, too, would be forced to persistent public
re-iteration of their advantages.

But the greater goodness of Federal Bonds has so deeply impressed
itself upon the American public that they are taken up in person, by
mail, and by wire, almost over-night, in a way of speaking.

And isn’t this entirely natural and logical? Can you picture yourself
investing your money in a less desirable bond when you can have a

a pan to heat; she shook tea leaves
from a box Into a bowi and brought a

“Altogether- there were thirtynine," Constance replied.
“Seven are living then.“
“Seven? What have you heard?

She made no denial of that; she had

went on.
“He’ll be found!" she defied him.
"Be found?"
“Some are dead." she admitted, "but

" Seven?" he echoed. “Yen say

vices.
That was a remarkable visitor
Sunday morning. It’s not at all
likely that any of you ever before
heard a man preach who was past
86 years of age. Brother, every­
body enjoyed hearing you, and we
want you to come again. You have
been preaching' for over 60 years
and that of itSeif is a long time. May
God give you the blessed privilege
of preaching many another sermon.
And that was a fine treat on Sunday
evening when the gospel team of
seven men from the First Baptist
church of Battle Creek had full
charge. All seven are hard work­
ing men, but are filled with the spirit
and willing to sacrifice time and
comforts to go out and hold these
services for the good they can do.
Those man sometimes take a service
for the pastor of the home church.
They have the respect of their fel­
low-members.
How many
men
members of our church would like
to be each one of a similar team and
sometimes take charge of a service in
our church, and sometimes go out
and do so in another church?
In the meantime, brother, come
along ahd attend all you can, and
thereby receive training for a larger
service, and God may open the way
for you to amount to more for Him.
In the meantime will you be at
prayer meeting this Thursday even­
ing?
A. K. Scott, Pastor

A Voice of the Methodist Church.
Do you know that onr prisons are
filling up with young people from 14
to 22 years of age, and 95 per cent,
have not been members of Sunday
schools, or attendants at church? A
great juvenile judge some time ago
said that in the five years that he had
sat upon the bench not a single
boy or girl had come before him who
had been a regular attendant at Sun­
day school. And yet fathers and
mothers are taking their children out
of Sunday school, to the lakes and
picnics, ball games, to worship the
god of pleasure. Just as much an
idol of people today as any idol ever
worshiped by the Israelites of old.
Come Sunday morning and hear the
sermon on "The Flower, Fruit and
Ashes of Sin." Have you been to
Sunday school lately? The judgment
is coming and the Judge will ask you
what you did with your Sundays
Can He say, "Good and faithful ser­
vant?”
The meetings are continuing this
wetjk at Maple Grove, and the inter­
est is increasing each night. Evan­
gelist Miller preaches the old gospel
and yet it is ever new and people are
getting ready for the judgment.
Come to the services.
Remember the entertainment Fri­
day evening, "Tho Pacific Filipino
Four”, who toured the state of Iowa
last summer with W. J. Bryan. This
is-a high-class entertainment. What­
ever you do, do not fail to be present.
It is put on under the auspices of the
Epworth League. The hour is 8.00
p. m.—price, 35'and 20 cents.
You are always welcome at the
Methodist church.

To Keep in the Shade.
In the early days there was a
railroad in Tennessee which allowed
its conductors to make their ownrules
affecting the traveling public. Some­
times one conductor had rules in di­
rect conflict with the other. One of
the conductors would permit passen­
gers to take their dogs into the
coaches with them. The conductor
running opposite would not allow a
dog on his train, not even in the bag­
gage car. One day some hunters, re­
turning to the city, met the con­
ductor who would not allow a dog
to ride on his train. When the train
left the station the dog followed tied
to the train, and had no difficulty in
keeping up with it. When the con­
ductor saw what was t^appenlng he
was highly incensed over the disre­
spect shown to his train. “Watch
your old dog when we start down
grade,’” he stormed, "and see what
happens to him. You think you are
making fun of my train." A little
later, when on the down grade, the
conductor approached the rear plat­
form, and not seeing the dog, called
to the owner: "Now tell me, please,
what has become of your dog.”
"Right here,” retorted the passenger,
pointing to a big hole in the Lior

of the coach, "see him under there?
He just came under the coach to trot
along in the shade.”—The Argonaut.

The Trial of a Lawyer.
A successful Chautauqua lecturer,
a prominent attorney in his own city,
has for years entertained large au­

diverting introduction from the lips
of a platform manager:
"I am'very glad to introduce to
you, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. B—,
who . will now entertain us with his
celebrated lecture, "The Trial of
Jesus from a Lawyer's Standpoint.*

might prove'more interesting to this
audience than the one announced.
That would bo "The Trial of a Law­

crossed the plate before the side was
retired. .
Vermontville's lone tally came io
the first inning. Dancer grounded
to Lykins, but Townsend rnitwed the
throw to first and the runner ad­
vanced to second, scoring on a safe
hit by Stewart. Nashville evened
the jjcore. in the fourth, in a very
similar manner. Townsend hit to
Lake, who rolled the ball around on
the ground long enough to let the
runner reach first. Towser stole
second and scored on G. Bera’s safe
hit to the outfield.
In the eleventh, Lykins, first man
up, was hit by a pitched ball. Dull
advanced him to third with a clean
hit to the outfield, and Townsend
brought in the tally with a safe hit
down the third base line. G. Bera
was safe a first when the shortstop
fumbled his grounder. Dull being held
at third on the play. McWha cook
the mound for Vermontville and
walked Pennington, forcing in an­
other score.
The next three men
went out in order.
Lykins, who did the pitching ’for
Nashville, had the game well In hand
.and should have been credited with
a shut-out. He allowed but four
safe* hits and kept them well scat­
tered. Numerous
fumbles were
made behind him, but the players
tightened up in the pinches and*
some fine fielding helped him out of
several holes during the contest.

Whether you invest as little as $50 or as much as
$10,000 in Federal First Mortgage Real Estate Serial
Gold bonds, you become owner of a definite interest
in a first mortgage that is secured by new, welllocated, income-producing, real property.

The first mortgage is a lien upon the security.
No other liens or obligations can be put ahead of it.
If there is a second mortgage, the holders of it must
wait until your claim has been settled before they
can collect.

Property under mortgage to the Federal Bond &amp;
Mortgage Company is fully covered by insurance to
the amount of the loan.
We rigidly Insist that taxes are not permitted to be
in arrears.
And, moreover, we deal only in closed firstmortgages
which permit no increase in the original loan.

The property mortgaged is invariably new, improved
real estate worth approximately twice the amount
of the loan.
.
Because of these and. other facts, we recommend
these bonds to you as a medium of investment that
will keep your money safe, while it earns a liberal
interest rate.

COUIITRY CORRESPOWDEHCE

THE NEW ERA ASSOCIATION
The New Era closed 1921 with a special meeting of its cabinet (directors) on December 30th,
and paid every dollar of proven death claims, leaving a surplus of over $30,000 greater than one
year ago. The reserve at that time to meet any fluctuation in mortuary or death losses was
adequate to protect $40,000,000 in lite contracts against two of the most severe epidemics this
country ever had. Enough said on finances and the success of 1921.

Our Business

Our Slogan
Combining Life Insurance business and ethics.

Our Ethics
Preaching, Practicing, Promulgating Democracy

Selling Two Life Insurance Contracts Contain­
ing the Best Features of Legal Reserve Companies,
Fraternal Beneficiary Associations and Assessment
Mutual Companies without their Objectionable
Features.

The New Era was chartered in 1897, has $40,000,000 contracts in force, 330 local branches,
37,000 members.
.

l

We Do Laugh

$3,500,000 to Beneficiaries

FIRST

Without a “widow’s contest’' where local members ever appeared in court against the New Era.

Because our competitors have another
guess coming. They missed the truth by
a mile! Read the preliminary insurance
commissioner’s report just out.
1

SECOND
Because business and professional men
and some labor men buy so-called invest­
ment life insurance, agreeing if unfortu­
nate enough to die within twenty years,
that the Company keeps their savings
account.
The New Era gives the savings to
the beneficiary plus four per cent, to­
gether with the face of the certificate.

We Don’tLaugh
—It makes us sick to find a union laborite patronizing or buying so-called old
■line life insurance at two to five times the
tactual cost, and having their money going
rto finance the big trusts that are fighting
ribe union.

Never Failed Having a Quorum in
24 Years
iNever But Two Divisions on
Roll Call
t

Never a Division Between Execu­
tive, Legislative and Lay
Members
We challenge any social, religious, political or
fraternal association to equal this record. There
is a reason. It’s a secret which we are telling at
every opportunity.
Every feature will make a book.

Read Our “Five-Feature” Card
Demo’cracy applied.
Group current-cost insurance, no freeze outs.
A whole life contract paid up in twenty years
and savings added to face of policy pjus four per
cent in the event of death previous to expiration
of 20 year period.
The successful union of home, church and lodge.
Cooperation secured by furnishing the cooperators with the vaudeville and making it profitable.
This, too, is a secret, but 37,000 members have it
and more are getting it every day.
Finally we teach you how to find truth—any
truth—but more particularly the truth about the
New Era in life insurance.
We can use right now 40 local managers, 6 dis­
trict supervisors, 10 district managers and one
state manager.

man In mackinaw and cap; his face
was hidden partly by the position in
which he lay and partly by the drift­

snow away and turned him to her, she
knew that he was Alan.
She cried to him and, when he did
not answer, she shook him to get him
awake; but she could not rouse him.

Alan crossed the little cabin and
looked out the window over tfie snowcovered slope, where the bright sun
was shining. Snow had covered any
tracks that there had been upon the
beach where those who had been in
the boat with him had been found
dead. He had known that this must
be; he had believed them beyond aid
when*he had tried for the shore to
summon help for them and for him­
self. The other boat, which had car­
ried survivors of the wreck, blown
farther to the squth, had been able to
gain the shore of North Fox island;
and as these men had not been so long
exposed before they were brought to
shelter, four men lived. Sherrill had
told him their names; they were the
mate, the assistant engineer, a deck­
hand and Father Perron, the priest
who had been a passenger but who had
stayed with the crew till the last. Ben­
jamin toner had perished in the
wreckage of the cars.
As Alan went buck to his chair, the
Indian watched him and seemed not
displeased.

"I am his son. then! I thought that
must lie so."
Alan trembled nt the priest's sign of
confirmation. There was no shock ,of
surprise In this; he hadjnwpected ever
since August, when Captain Stafford's
watch and the wedding ring had so
strangely come to Constance, that he
might be Stafford’s son. He looked at
Constance, as they followed the priest
to the motor which was waiting to
take them to the house of old Father
Benltot. whose guest Father Perron
was: she was very quiet. What would
that grave statement which Father
Perron was to make to them mean to
hint—to Alan?' Would further knowl­
edge about that father whom he had
not known, but whose blood was bls
and whose name he now must bear,
bring pride or shame to him?
A bell was tolling somewhere, as
they followed the priest into Father
Benltot’s small, bare room which had
been prepared for their Interview. Fa­
ther Perron went to a desk and took
therefrom some notes which he bad
made.
“What I have." he said, speaking
more particularly to Sherrill. “i« the
terrible, not fully coherent statement

olated. It does not give what came
before or what came after; therefore,
It does not make plain. I hope that, as
Benjamin Corvet’s partner, you can
furnish what I lack."
“What is it you want to know?"
Sherrill asked.
“What were the relations between
Benjamin Corvet and Captain Staf­

"Corvet," be replied, "was a very

Twenty years ago. when the conflict
of ' competing interests was at Its
height, Corvet was the head of one
line, Stafford was head of another, and
the two lines had very much the same
connections and competed for the same
cargoes."
“I begin to see I" Father Perron ex­
claimed. “Please go on.”
- “In the early nineties both lines still
were young; Stafford had. I believe,
two ships; Corvet had three."
“So few? Yes; it grows plainer!"
"In 1894. Stafford managed a' stroke
which, if fate had not intervened, must
have assured the ultimate extinction
of Corvel's line or its absorption into
Stafford's. Stafford gained as his part­
ner Franklin Ramsdell, a wealthy man
whom he had convinced that the lake
traffic offered chances of great profit;
and this connection supplied him with
the capital whose lack had been ham­

Corvet. The new firm—Stafford and
Ramsdell—projected the construction,
with Ramsdell's money, of a number
of great steel freighters. The first of
these—the Mlwaka. a test ship whose
experience was to guide them in the
construction of the rest—was launched
In the fall of 1895, and was lost on its

tents. When first discovered the en­
tire building was a mass of tinmen,
and, Mr. Nqjil and the neighbors di­
rected their efforts toward saving
the other farm buildings. A team of
horses was lost in the fire, also all ot
Mr. Neal’s crops, hay, wheat and
oats. The loss is estimated at 31500
and was partially covered by insur­
ance in the Barry A Eaton.
P. W O'Connor &amp; Son have gone
to work to earnest on their road job
on Trunk Hue 79. Starting at the
east end of ttye job, they have the
fill for the new roadway from the
base of the Barryvllie hill across the
fiats to the Lathrop hill well under
way, and are also starting work ou
the west end of the job. The official
detour is by way of Nashville to
Stony Point, then south half a mile
and over the old Center road, com­
ing out just east of the Consolidated
Press plant at Hastings. They ex­
pect to have the Job completed well
inalde the contract time, which speci­
fies December first.
Willie Kalaskl, a moider at the
Bliss plant at Hastings, is an out-of­
town fellow, used tc big cities and
their ways, who gets drunk any time
he wants to and thinks it all right,
but when he showed up at the plant
Monday morning be was so full of
booze that the boss excused him from
work. Then he went down town
and made insulting remarks to some
young girls, for which be was
promptly apprehended. Later he
pleaded guilty to being drunk and
drew a sentence of 329.20 or thirty
days. Willie was very peeved and
said rqAny bad words, some of which
could be understood, but most of
which ended in "ski.”

A Niles attorney, after having
experience in the matter, warns auto
drivers that certificates of title
should be carried al all times, es­
pecially when driving in Indiana. Au­
to drivers are frequently put to a
lot of trouble by nut having their
certificates of title with them. This
is particularly true when crossing
the line into Canada, otherwise the
driver is likely to be subjected to
several days' delay and be compell­
ed to go through an endless amount
of red tape a convenient custom
that Is recommended and which is
followed by a great many tourists, is
to have a little metal pocket in an
obscure place about the ear which
will hold a little leather card case,
or pocketbook with tbe certifispecifications of the car

been striving to concentrate Iter
thoughts, blit something, some dis­
quieting thing to tbe gathering dusk or
some vibration to the weird whine oi
tbe March wind, had prevented her.
Behind her immobile face thuught-p.cturcM flashed and faded—pictures that
passed the censorship of her mind’s
eye, and pictures that failed to pass
and left her raring with resentment.
Soft fqutst* &gt;- sounded overhead,
then tbe squeak of a wheeled chair
jolting *»ver a threshold, and she knew
that Miss Raymond, her foster moth­
er’s nurse, had begun to “fix" her pa­
tient for the night.
"Every night il Is the same,” she re­
flected, “the same things will happen
at the same time. In another hour
she will send Miss Raymond-to sum­
mon me to her bedside and then she
will complain about tbe weather and
the food and Miss Ruymond, and or­
der me about ns if I were still a little
child."

JudI tli Hamilton arose and switched
on the light. She glanced pwlftly. ex­
pectantly, around the book-lined room,
and then, drawing the shades, she re­
sumed her seat and the fascinating
pictures again marshalled themsHves
out of the mysterious stillness of the
past and crowded buck the thoughts
that struggled within her; and always
In the foreground of these pictures,
the center and soul of them, the face
and figure of John Hamilton stood out.
and the old love-light was in his bluepuy eyes and the old smile was upon
his brave young face.
Like a shuttle to and fro passed the
pictures of what ahd been: A lonely,
loveless childhood; then love and
laughter and roses. Then a quiet wed­
ding and almost two years of sweet
content and happiness, and then—sud­
denly, for John Hamilton a night that
had no fronting.
Tonight the jmst had cast Its spell
about her, and the majestic mystery of
life and love and death burdened her
thoughts as she sat staring at a quafat
rose jar upon her library table. In It
the petals of the first roses that John
Hamilton had sent had found a resting
place, and all the roses that had fol­
, lowed had been buried In tbe depths
of the old rose jar.
Lovingly she lifted the rose jar and
bowed her bead above IL Inhaling the
fragrance that lingered in it, and then
among the withered petals her half­
rinsed eyes caught the gleam of some­
thing white, and with fumbling fin­
gers she drew it to the light. It was
s sheet of writing paper covered with
her husband’s handwriting. It was
dated March 12, 1919, Just three days
before the night that had no morning.
Site unfolded it and read:
-March 12, 1919.
“Judith Dear—I have known for
some time that I am walking on quick­
sand. Somehow. Judith, it Is hard for
me to realise this, and I continue to
hope for the beaj, but, dearest, I am
preparing for the worst, «and so today
have set my house in order as best
I may. And now that that is done I
find It hard, indeed, impossible, to
bring sorrow to your heart by telling
you of this shadow that may come be­
tween ns.
“Wy hear much today, Judltli. from
met/of learning about the world be­
yond. and some of them tell us that
the departed are In close touch with
their loved ones here. I like to think
that is true. It makes the Inevitable
seem to me a little less terrible, anfl
so. defrost, if a disembodied spirit or
mind have power (and. it may have)
to return, then shall I return to you
one year from tonight. And you shall
find this note to the old rose jar on the
evening of March 19, 1920, and ynu
shall know, dearest heart, that I am
near you. guiding and loving you.
"May God bless you and give you
strength to face life and all Its trials
with a brave heart.
“Eternally yours.
JOHN."
In the quiet, rose-scented library Ju­
dith Hamilton, a-thrill with wonder
and love, crushed the precious. letter
to her ll|w and bowed her head upon
her hands. After a little while Mis*
Raymond, her foster mother’s nurse,
knocked lightly upon the library door,
and Judith Hamilton, fier face alight
with love, followed her to the room
above.

Charlotte is aiming to give the
finest free entertainment at Bennett
Park next Sunday. Aug. 13, at 3:30,
that has ever been given in the state.
A fine concert is being arranged by the
Charlotte Community band under the
diretion of H. A. Higby. and a new
ladies' quartette has been secured as
an additional musical attraction.
Dr. Paul Voelker, Pres, of Olivet col­
lege is to give bis address on the
"Problems of Today.” Dutch ovens
can be found in different parts of the
park with plenty of large lunch
tables for every one. All kinds ot
swings and park equipment is scat­
tered throughout tbe park and there
are hundreds of seats for young and'
old.

Csllgr Is Safe.
Accident statistics show *thit the
safest place to be to avoid the poaHlbllhy yf accident Is to a bed to the
cellar of'yuur home. Next to that the
safest place is a I'niliiutn or other steel
car nn a railroad train. So say the
.icd'leni ti.suriince companies. A pastuftger in an ordinary railroad car Is
much safri than at home, because he
Is silting st'll and few things can
happen to him. If he is in a Pullman,
and there b a collision, other cars may.
be smashed, but his own \ehicie. be­
ing of steel and enormously heavy, will
likely escape sefious injury.
Division of Labor.
In the upper Amazon there is an
Interesting tribe.. which, to its division
of work. Is reminiscent of the guilds
of the Middle ages. One portinn makes
clothing and nothing else: another
one. Is purely agricultural; ano'her de­
votes its time and labor to the con­
struction of weapons, and so rm. Their
pottery, however. Is the mo.-t notable
of their productions Some of these
Jars are extremely large hut very thin,
although strong and durable. Some of
the smaller vessels are almost ns thin
as pilfer. ’
Las Palmin' is the chief town In the
Canary |slnn&lt;ls, and Is situated on the
northeast shores of-fhe Grand Canary.
The town enjoys considerable trade
and Is coming into prominence as a
health resort.. Its population is about
45,000._____________________________

UR fares 3b get cold, as may be
by the application of
is known ns a “surface
thermometer.’’ but we do not feel the
cold because the nerves by which we
are conscious of a change In tempera­
ture are accustomed to this state of

were accustomed to go out* barefoot,
but with our faces covered, the pres­

we would not “feel” the cold In our

Tbe same principle Is apparent In a

Several farmers in California got 3 to 6 bush­
els; Illinois, 5; Kansas, 3 j, and Iowa 9 bushels
more per acre by drilling small grain instead of broad­
casting.

JOHN^DEERE
VAN BRUNT GRAIN DRILL
Here is the big advantage
in drilling which we want all
of our customers to understand
—only one trip over the field is
necessary to plant the seed.
The drill completes four opera­
tions—it makes the seed fur­
rows, drops and covers the
seed, and pulverises the soil.
Not necessary to harrow the
field afterwards.
You will always need a ma­
chine of some kind for planting
your small grain crops. Why
not get one from us now that
will do all of this work—one
that plants the seed at even
depth so that the crop will all

be ready for harvest at one
time?
We have the drill in stock
that we know will do the work
for you. It is a John Deere­
Van Brunt—the famous drill
that has wcrked very success­
fully all over the country for
forty years. We want you -to
know all about the Van Brunt
Grain Drill. It has a patented
adjustable gate force-feed that
will interest you in the way it
works. Come in and let us show
you how easy it is to plant
even, continuous streams of
fine, medium or coarse seed
with this drill.

The above cut shows a Western drill. The Michigan size-is
11-disc, and is easily drawn by two horses.

flushed the sewers' of London, and
the rush of foul water killed the fishes

In point of years Federal is not actually the pioneer Michigan real
estate first mortgage bond house.
But it seems freely admitted that Federal deserves the title from
the standpoint of the tremendous work it has done, both in fixing
new and higher standards of quality for bonds and hi awakening
the people of this commonwealth to the wonderful Investment
value of the good first mortgage bond.

In the fight to rid this state of the fraudulent stock issue and the
get-rich-quick promotion Federal has ever been foremost.
As Michigan’s greatest first mortgage bond house it has long been
regarded as the leader in the movement to guard investors against
shady and insecure investments.
Arid in simple justice to Federal it can be fairly said that it deserves
no small share of the honor for lessening annually the number of
Michigan men and women who are fleeced of their hardwon savings.

So if we interpret the word pioneer not from the point of age but
from the point of broad, educational achievement we see that
Federal has justly earned the name.

Our records show countless instances of men and women almost
to the verge of succumbing to the lure of “risky” stock, who, in the
end, resolutely turned to Federal Bonds.
And it is with an inner glow of genuine pride that we reflect
upon the fact that no Federal Bond has ever cost its owner the loss
of a single dollar.

Thruout the length and breadth of Michigan and in practically
every other state in the Union Federal Bonds are known and spoken
of as Better Bonds.

It is this deep-rooted -conviction that Federal Bonds are Better
Bonds that has given sufh a growing impetus to Federal business
that today the sale of Federal Bonds has reached a volume more
than three times as great as that of the next largest Michigan real
estate bond company.

where te strike. But vanity is that
delusive, that insettlverous, that mul­
tiplied feeling; and men that fight
vanity are like men that fight widget
and butterflies. It is easier to chase
them than to hit them.—Henry Ward

Organized Farmers
Congress: has passed more constructive farmer -legislation at this session than any other
Congress in history. The 1921 Michigan Legislature did likewise in Michigan.
WHY? Because 1,500,000 Farm Bureau members backed the powerful “Farm Bloc” at
Washington. Because the Michigan State Farm Bureau’s legislative department got re­
sults at Lansing for 97,000 Farm Bureau members.

These two. co-operating bodies of organized farmers so strongly protested the Sales Tax
that "Congress was forced to abandon it. The Sales Tax would have rested more heavily
upon farmers than any other class, and would have added greatly to their present tax
burdens.

FARM BUREAU VICTORIES IN MICHIGAN
The Michigan Farm Bureau want* a State Income Tax so that five to ten billion dollars
in Michigan in hidden, lintaxed stocks, bonds and other intangible property, paying prac­
tically no taxes, shall bear their just share of the state’s tax burden. Today five billion
dollars in tarm and town real estate carries the burden.
In Michigan some concerns pay a Federal income tax twice as large as Michigan’s average
annual state tax of $20,000,000. A state income tax would help Michigan farmers, if on­
ly a fraction of the Federal income tax rate.
The Michigan State Farm Bureau, co-operating with other Michigan farm organizations in
the Farmers Federated Legislative Committee, fought this through the 1921 legislature and
got the people the opportunity to vote on it this fall. Now it’s up to you to study the pro-»
posed state income tax and vote the legislature authority to enact a State income tax law.
The Farm Bureau’* program of economy helped out 1922 and 1923 State ap

Well, with Fred’s consent (Much
obliged, Fred) perhaps we better
tell you the whole story. Fred and
his family started out the other day
for a little trip to Auburn, Indiana,
combining business with pleasure. On
their way Into Marshall they noticed
folks trying to attract their atten­
tion, and when they got Into the
town they got out and started to In­
vestigate. thinking perhaps they had
a flat tire or that some scalawag
had hung a German
on their
car. But when they stopped, they
mighty soon found out where the
trouble was and why they had at­
tracted so much attention. They
had one of those slat contraptions on
their running board, for holding
baggage. In it they had stored their
suit cases, and a whole lot of other
stuff like sweaters, blajjEetp. shawls,
etc., and evidently Fred or somebody
else had been smoking and had
thrown a match or a cigarette stub
out of the car, for the whole outfit
In that luggage carrier was on fire
and blazing tnerrlly. Well, they had
forgotten to include a fire extinguish­
er In their, outfit, so all the stuff
burned up before they could tear it
loose from the car. and they were
mighty fortunate not to lose the car
with it. As it Was, they were able
to continue on their trip, but they
didn’t bother to make many changes
in their attire until after they re­
turned home.

Most of us can remember what the
present Central park looked like a
few years ago. and we are also glad
to realize that the unsightly place It
was has developed Into the beauty
spot that It now is. Ail this brae to
mind by what Clift Klelnhans has
done to the back yard of the Mal­
lory property. Clift lives in one of
the flats ft the Hurd block and often
uses the back* stairs which are on the
south side of the building. We can
vividly remember what that back
yard looked like last year. Ash
piles, weeds, rubbish—an eyesore to
everybody In the vicinity. This
spring Clift got busy, cleaned it all
up in good shape, planted some four
o'clocks and other flower seeds, and
that old back yard is now a thing of
beauty and is admired by all the
neighborhood.
We all have new experiences occaaiqnally. Driving in from the
lake yesterday morning we struck
Main street and found ourselves in
behind a wagon with a little chariot
trailing along behind, and as we
passed it and ware rubbering at It
trying to make out what it was, we
looked ahead and found ourselves
right behind the band wagon in tbe
cirsus parade. Sa-ay! We gave the
handle of that old Stude one twist,
whirled around the nearest corner
and beat it for home.
We don't
belong in no'circus parade, and we
nearly run over half a dozen kids

The "Biggest Boy" is not at home.
And though his absence_ hurts
At least there’s comfort—I can find
Clean collars, socks and shifts.
And when I look about and see
The “Little Man * at play.
That lonesome feeling in my heart
Just somehow fades away.
rhe “Biggest Boy” has “hit the trail,"
But “Little Man" still stands
Beside his “Daddy’s" easy chair
And stretches out his hands;
He smiles and says with coaxing voice
While climbing on my knees:
Tm papa's little man today;
Give me some.candy, pieuse!"

□ne boy has gone to fight his fight;
One boy remains with me—
Fhe "Biggest Boy" with bearded Up,
The “Little Man" afeed three.
And may the one who’s far away
'Midst life's hard toll and care
Remain as fond of “Dad” as be
' Who stands beside my chair.

APRIL SHOWERS
By BEE MoDONALD

Jack Denton.closed hl* desk with a
bang, jammed his hat down on his
bead aud started for the door.
“Better, take your slicker, Mr, Den­
ton," suggested the- office boy, “it’s
raining like the dickens.”
Denton halted in his mad rush,
right flanked and walked over to the
window. "Humph!" he commented
bitterly, half to himself. “Nature weep­
ing for her sins!"
Ordinarily Denton wouldn’t have
thought of' venturing out In such a
downpour unless it was absolutely
necessary,
At the corner he met Byther, un­
doubtedly the best friend he had on
earth, who pulled him under an awn­
ing to say, "For the love of Pete cheer
up, boy! You look like a cannibal
about to devour some unsuspecting
missionary. What’s wrong, old mon?”
“Nothing you can help; thanks just
the same, Jim. It’s only that I’Ve
discovered I can’t stand this everlast­
ing bickering with Gwen any longer,
and I can’t live without her, so what’s
a poor devil to do?”
“Quit tills tommyrot and talk sense
for one thing. Gwen is just like all
women. You can’t give them, their
way too much without spoiling them.
What’s the trouble this time?"
“Same old thing—Jerry Blaine's wed­
ding. I promised to be best man and
Gwen objected because they paired me
off with Polly Ackers, a girl she cor­
dially hates, upd she refused to go to
the wedding.”
"Take my .advice and come with me
to the wedding regardless. Hl guar,
antee everything will come out all
right"
At this point the keeper of. the store
came out to pull up the awning and
they discovered the sun was shining
brightly. “April showers," commented
Byther jovially. "They bring May
flowers, so the saying goes. Take cour­
age. Jack?1
Denton hadn’t the least Idea what
Byther was driving at when he gave
his guarantee that everything would
come out all right, but he knew his
friend's reputation for resourcefulness,
and somehow It gave him the courage,
when lie returned to his office, to tele­
phone Gwen. “Friday, the 13th," he
muttered, "but here goes. Tm leaving
tomorrow for Blaine's wedding," he
told Gwen. “Sure you won’t change
your mind and come with me?"
“I’ve told you what Til do and that
ends it," came the reply.
Denton went to the wedding. When
he reached home he found a registered
package. It contained the last rem­
nant of his engagement to Gwendoline
Spurlock.
For a week he neither Maw nor
heard anything of his former fiancee.
In the meantime Byther, seeing Miss
Spurlock coming his way on the oppo­
site side of the street one morning,
crossed over and contrived to meet
her.
.
\ "Why, good morning, stranger," he
greeted cheerily. “I didn't see yon at
Jerry's wedding. Your splendid fiance
was quite the handsomest piece of
male property present Polly Ackers
announced her engagement at the wed­
ding; romantic, wasn’t it?”
Perhapy Byther noted Gwen's stony
silence and Id Rlare- but if he did
he gave no such sign. Hd ntmqied on.
exclaiming suddenly, seizing her by
the ann, “Quick, under this awning,
it’s beginning to rain!" Hnd it been
any other time Gwen undoubtedly
would have bidden him a curt good
morning and gone her way, bnt the
heavens proceeded to open —conven­
iently for the man—and she had no
umbrella, so Byther utilized the time
in telling everything pice any girl had
said about Jack Denton. By that time
the rain had ceased and the sun
smiled with Byther as he said, “April
showers. They bring Mqy flowers, so
the saying does. Glad to have seen
you. Gwen.”
Poor Gwen! Her heart and mind
were filled with a chaos of emotions.
She sat down on a bench to collect
her scattered thoughts and was lost
to things about her until a splash on
her hand drove her to the protection
of a spreading tree, under which a
man with a large umbrella held well
down over his shoulders had Just
taken refuge.
“Perhaps he will ask me to share
IL" thought the girt. “Hope he’s nice."
She coughed a little by way of an­
nouncing herself, and tbe man lifted
the rainshed.-“Gwen!” he cried out.
“You're getting soaked! Come under

He reached out and appropriated
her arm without permission. Expla­

Among investors there are men and women known
as “confirmed first mortgage buyers.”

No other type of investment appeals to them. They
will not take chances with their money.

Such people are invariably well-fixed financially. As
a rule, they have a considerable amount of money
invested and working.

If you are starting out, with a small amount of
money to invest, you probably cinnot get the most
desirable first mortgages.
feut you can get units of first mortgages—in Federal
First Mortgage Real Estate Serial Gold Bonds.

Moreover, you get in, these bonds units of superior
first mortgages—mortgages on only new, high-grade,
income-producing land and improvements.
Buying our bonds, we believe, is the most satisfac­
tory method/of investment in first mortgages.

Colleges, banks, insurance companies, men and
women of wealth, as well as those of limited income,
buy Federal Bond &amp; Mortgage Company bonds.

ther Perron began. "(This is what
Benjamin Corvet, told to me when he
was dying under the wreckage on the
ferry.) 'He was ns fair and able a
man as the lakes ever knew. I liad
my will of most men In the lake trade
in those days; but I could not have
my will of him. With all tbe lakes to
trade in, he hail to pick out for his that
traffic which I already bad chosen foe
my own. But I fought him fair, Fa­
ther—I fought him fair, and I would
have continued to do that to the end.
“'I was at Manistee, Father, In the
end of tbe season—December .fifth of
1805. The ice had begun to form very
early that year and was already bad;
there was cold and a high gale. I had
laid up one of my ships at Manistee,
and I was crossing that night upon a
tug to Manitowoc, where another was
to be laid up. I bad still a third one
loading up on the northern peninsula at
Manistique for a last trip which, if it
could be made, would mean a good
profit from a season which so far, be­
cause of Stafford's competition, had
been only fair. After leaving Manis­
tee, It grew still more cold, and I was
afraid the Ice would close In on her
and keep her where she was, so I deter­
mined to go north that night and see
that she got out None knew. Father,
except those aboard the tug, that I had
made that change.

“‘At midnight, Father, to westward
of the Foxes, we heard the four blasts
of a steamer in distress—the four long
blasts which have sounded in my soul
ever since! We turned toward where
we saw tbe steamer's lights; we went
nearer and. Father, It was his great
ship—the Mlwaka! We had heard two
days befbre that she had passed the

of where she was. She had broken her

It had been an unlucky day" for
Jefferson Deane: first of all it had
rained, n gray driaxle had turned
the roads to mud and the footpaths
to slippery ooze.
Tbe night had
settled down after a short twilight in
which Jefferson flulshed his work
about his little house and then started
next door to call on Ros»lx*l Moore.
Of course there was nothing un­
lucky about being Rosabel's accepted
suitor, oply somehow they had dis­
agreed about a very trivial matter,
and Rosabel had .returned his engage­
ment ring,'and Jefferson hud accepted

with the mls’ry in her back 1**^
“I hope I shan’t be tied down here
very long," muttered Jefferson, his
white face staring up at the kindly
doctor. “I’ve got a lor of young
chickens coming along—and they
need attention. Lucky thing they are
fixed for the night and my poultry
houses are tight and dry.”
"Now you go to sleep, hotiey, and
don't you worry about little chicks
—Sally has brung hundreds of little
chicks through wuas weather than
thia!"
Jefferson went to sleep,
listening to her low crooning voice
—for old Sally believed all folks were

and not once had he had a glimpse

Jefferson, “if you'll jukt tall Maggie

a day and she can feed the chick*

"Maggie Martin Is the worst cook
in the world, but I’ll send her down
—don’t take any chances, boy, and
TH come down tonight and rub yon
myself.”
After their departure the' time
drugged. He heard the clock ticking
Its slow round of the hours, saw the
sun move across the window, beard
the birds singing outside and heard
an excited fluttering among his
feathered flock.
“I hope it isn't chicken. hawks,”
he muttered restlessly. “No chance
to make money out of the poultry
business this year—but I guess I
won’t need it!" He ftwvned and
dozed, with that frown on his anxious
young face. He dreamed that. Rosa­
bel kissed him. and awoke to find
the cat on the bed blinking curiously
at a tray lieside the bed, where rt smok­
ing hot xdinner was arranged with
dainty cure.
Jefferson dfngjted himself -to n sltM&gt;g posture and smiled wanly.
“Do you believe in ghosts, Peter?”
he asked the/at “for I'll wager that
Mnggie Martin never cooked this
meal—no sir-e-e-e." He attacked the
deliciously broiled steak, the creamed
potatoes, the hot muffins, the pot of
coffee and tbe generous piece of apple
pie.
"Old Sally must have come

Awhile ag&lt;r he had heard
Rosabel singing—he heard the notes
of her piano and her soft, tender
voice. “She didn’t have to sing 'Robin
Adair'.” he muttered, with a hot sting­
ing behind his rinsed eyelids.
Presently a faint light In die room
roused him.
From bis pillow he
could see the large mirror over the
bureau at the Joet of the bed. Re­
flected in the mirror was the bedside

H*MtingH Co-OperntIve Elevator AxeocleiKm Holds Anriu-1 Meeting.
The second annual meeting of the
Hastings Co-Operative Elevator as­
sociation was held on Wednesday,
August 23rd, al th* Court House at
Hastings. In the morning the reguiar business coming before the meet­
ing was taken up followed by elec­
tion .of directors whose terms had ex­
pired. The directors were re-eieeted and.lbe board is as follows: RfB.
Walker, president; Ansel Phillips,
vice president; A. N. williams, Sec.Treas.; C. 1. Moore, Lafayette Ujborne, Chas. A. Woodruff, Birney Mc­
Intyre, Peter Kunz and Claude D.
Hunt.
At the afternoon session the pres­
ident called on F. W. Bennett, coun­
ty agricultural agent, who gave a
short talk relative to the marketing
situation, advantages of our organi­
zations and what we have gained,
and why we should progress forward
and continue in the accompHshments
received from organized efforts.
Mr. C. L. Brody. Sec.-Mgr. of she
Michigan State Farm Bureau, was in­
troduced at this time, and gave a
splendid talk relative to the Farm
Bureau, what had been, achieved in
the State and National organization*.
He also explained many of the dif­
ficulties encountered in organizing
and developing this, the greatest qt
all farm organizations. Mr. Brody
stated; "It the Farm Bureau could
not face frankly and honestly its
mistakes and its achievements it has
no right to exist.’’ And ip his char­
acteristic, straightforward manner
answered frankly the questions ask­
ed, which have been seriously mis­
understood by many ot the members.
A good representation of stock­
holders were*present at this meeting
and manifest^ a great deal of in­
terest in the activities of their organ­
ization.
See* Barry County tut Fruit Region.
Farm Burgau Adds to Co-Operative
Marketing Record and Other
Services.
Farmers of western Barry county
are’fast realizing that their soil and
the lay of their land offer great pos­
sibilities for fruit growing. During
the past two years ’more than 10,OOd apple trees have been set out.
Two hundred acre* were set to
grape* this spring. Considerable
acreages have been set to peaches,
cherries.^ pears, plum* and berries.
This movement for fruit is due to the
work of the Barry County Farm
Bureau which has been studying tho
needs of Barry county farmers.
A survey of the light soil farm* &lt;&gt;f
that section ot the county showed the
Farm Bureau that they have a splen­
did cold air drainage system and
plenty of water protection against
ordinary frosts, also that the region
can be made one of the best fruit
growing sections in Mich. Farmers
are working it out, the County Farm
Bureau assisting in the selection of
standard varieties with an eye to
best production and later ease and
profit in marketing. The Bureau
later proposes to develop* co-opera­
tive marketing outlets for Barry
county fruit.

To Keep Service.

The Bureau’s most important task
for 1922 is the re-enlistment of its
present membership and the lining
up of pew member* in another Farm
Bureau organization to carry on ths
splendid services developed by the

Freight rates were lowered ten per cent on farm
products six months before they were lowered
on other commodities.
Farmers pot this reduction because of
a ten months' fight made by the Amerl

Farm Bureau leaders appeared before the ex­
ecutives of the great railroads and the Inter­
state Commerce Commission demanding a ten
per cent rate cut on farm products. They got a
temporary reduction, effective Jan. 1, 1922.

The Farm Bureau is'now urging sharp econo­

FIGHTS TO LOWER MICHIGAN RATES
This spring the State Fann Bureau fought’Michigan railroads for a general reduction in farm
freight rates. . In the Michigan Rate Case it al­
so asked scrapping of Michigan’s burdensome
zoning system, a step ladder system of rates
that is costly to Michigan farmers. Farm Bu­
reau testimony from 50 counties proved farmers
must have relief.
The Bureau's first victory was a rail- .
road concession to cut all class rates
25 per cent between Upper and Lower
Peninsula points.

The main case is before the Public Utilities and
Interstate Commerce Commission', with favor­
able prospects for a farmer victory.

FARM BUREAU SAVED THEIR
RAILROADS
The State Farm Bureau recently prevented aban­
donment of the Big Rapids-White Cloud rail­
road fur Mecosta and Newaygo county members.
The Bureau’s traffic attorney won the case at
Washington.
The Barry County Farm Bureau helped Barry
shippers save the railroad at Freeport.
Michigan Farm Bureau members have State and
National organizations capable of dealing with
railroads and capable of representing them be­
fore the Interstate Commerce Commission.
That is why they can get needed rate reductions
and save their railroads. Their membership
dues provide such service.

Day and Night

September 5-6-7-8, 1922

This is the last day of August. To­
morrow. by all accepted standard.!,
straw hats are passe, w haterer that
is. That means. Wei suppose, that
a fellow who wears a straw hat af­
ter today is a "rube/’ a "hick".
Well, now. what then? Every
man hates to buy a new hat, of- a
new pair of shoes, either, for that
matter.
•
x
And another thing. We've had a
lot of cool days this summer, when
a fellow wanted to wear a^felt hat
or a cap? Instead of a straw?, and. for
us, we don’t feel that we’ve really
had our money’s worth out of our
straw hat this summer.
And here it is, time for a new
fedora or whatever they call the new
fall male millinery, and we suppose
we’ll have to haver ^one or let our­
selves be listed with the rest of the
bunkeys from Hunkytown.

And we’re going home tonight and
sleep on the question, and talk it ov­
er with the queen of the household,
and see what she thinks about It. *
And right there, too. we realize
that we are likely to strike a snag,
for. a fellow never knows what sort
of plans the missus has laid* for new
millinery and what not for her own
fall outfit, and we may get Informa­
tion that won’t be of any particular
solace to our sadly depleted bank ac­
count.

-Anyway. If you see us out in a
flaming new bonnet tomorrow you
will know that we have either won
out or that we have committed an­
other breach* of financial courtesy
and have persuaded George Deane,
against what is perhaps against his
better Judgment, tp stake us to a new
lid, with a proper allowance for the
old straw.
On the other hand, if the old
straw still adorns our manly brow,
you will have good and sufficient
reason for supposing that we have
lost out all around.
Or perhaps we'll hibernate and not
show up at all, and in that case you
can think whatever you darn please,
or that we’ve gone fishing.

They tell us that renewed prosper­
ity is just around the corner.
But
which corner? Some corners are
farther away than others.
What a bunch of plain fools we are
in this country, anyway. We laugh
at the bolsheviks and at the hell
dui how
i
they are raising in Russia, but
much better are we doing here?
lot better, of course, we’ll have to
adifiit, but we do many things just
as foolish as the things we are
laughing at. For instance, instead
of sensible men getting together and
settling the coal strike before it
started, -and the railroad shopmen
strike before that started, we have
the humiliating spectacle of the
■largest, richest and sup posed-to-be
most enlightened nation on earth
with Its bands tied and virtually up­
on the verge of’a complete tie-up of
all its industries, all on ancount of
the bull-headedness of a few men.
Unless the mines and railroads get
into action immediately a million
men will be out of work in the coun­
try within the next thirty days, a lot
of essential public utilities will be
unable to 'supply water, power,
lights and transportation, and the
entire country will be more or less
"up in the air," with no parachute
handy and the engine skipping. It
is high time (hat the people of'the
country call a bait on this foolish
wrecking of business by a few people.
Xvho ire too'wrapped up irf their
own selfish aims to care a continental
cuss what Happens to the country
and its peapie. It is high time for
congress tn enact such legislation as
will give the executive full power tn
act at any time for the interests of
the country at large.

No real estate bond company has ever been paid such signal
honor as the men and women of Michigan have bestowed
upon the Federal Bond &amp; Mortgage Company.
So widespread and so stubbornly rooted is the belief that
Federal Bonds are literally Better Bonds, that our annual
volume of sales is today slightly in excess of the total sales
of the next four largest Michigan first mortgage real estate
bond houses.

And we can point out with all propriety that such an over­
whelming expression of preference as indicated by these
'figures must have a sound basis in fact.
If Federal Bonds were not actually and measurably Better
Bonds then certainly some other bond would be Michigan’
favorite bond.

Now it is not at all our purpose in drawing such parallels to
cast disparagement upon the bonds of other good concerns.
Nor would we have you believe that all real estate bonds other
than Federal Bonds are unworthy bonds.

Our only intention is to set forth the known value of Federal
Bonds, and our only contention is that Federal Bonds do have an
undeniable desirability over and above that of the ordinary bond.

And we sincerely believe that even those men engaged in
selling other real estate first mortgage bonds must concede
deep in their hearts that there is a difference between their
bonds and Federal Bonds.
For surely if the public of investors can measure the super
ior value of Federal Bonds it cannot be imperceptible to men
in the bond business no matter how shrouded in prejudice
their judgment may be.
Fix this in your mind, mark it upon your memory—Federal
Bonds are Better Bonds

plained in Detail
The radio receiver described here
is one using a variometer for the tun­
ing circuit and mounted on a vertical
panel, 6 inches by 8 Inches, in­
stead of a horizontal base board.
To support the pane! in a vertical
position a small base board four
Inches wide by six Inches long and
1-2 to 5-S of an inch thick is screwed
to the panel.
The material required for the vari­
ometer follows:
One piece of bakelite or stiff canlboard tubing, three Inches long and
8 1-4 inches outside diameter. Coat
about five cents.
One pelcs of bakqMte or stiff card­
board tubing 1 1-4 Inches long and 2
3-4 Inches outside diameter.' Coat
about five cents.
100 feet of No. 26 DOC wire. Cost
about 25 cents.
- Six inches of 1-4 inch outside dia­
meter brass tubing costing about 29
cents.
Four small blocks of wood as shown
tn Fig 18.
One panel 6 by 8 by 3-8 inch.
Eight small round-head 1-4 inch
long brass wood screws.
One base board 4 by 7 by 1-2 inch.
One standard four-inch diameter dial
and knob to take 1-4 ipch shaft, cost­
ing about $160.
Seven binding posts.

metrical with resjiect to the center

total turns divided into tbe sections
of 20 turns each. The beginning urn!
the ending of the stator windings are
IM 6 of an -inch from the ends of the
tube. When the rotor is assembled
inside the stator, tbe winding on the
stator should fall just above that on
the rotor.
After the rotor and stator are
wound, give them a thin coat of shel­
lac and allow it to dry thoroughly be

WHY A FARMER SHOULD HAVE A BANK ACCOUNT
Because the" farmer' create* wealth from the soil and the
bank conserves and safeguards wealth and multiplies it* use

Because the farmer, in addition to his capital—the soli,
his tools, teams and hi* own physical strength — often need*
t money or credit to .supplement and keep hi* capital at work, and
the bank creates and sell* the credit he require*.

3. Because the farmer, of all men, should be Independent;
but in many case* he is not end must depend on other* for sup­
plies and assistance uritil harvest; and there are but three help­
ers to which tie may go^—hl* landlord, the supply merchant or
the bank? It when he has had money he has kept it in the
bank, be has a legitimate claim on its consideration when he
needs to borrow to make his crop, or tor other purposes, at a
fair end legal rate of interest.
4. Because the farmer is in truth a business man and should
conduct bis business in a business-like way; the bank is the far­
mer’s and business man's friend and -promotes the business of
the section by safe-keeping it* money aud increasing its power
through extension of conservative credit.
The bank become*
in truth hl* bookkeeper, as well as hi* safe.

5. Because a small amount of money in possession of each
citizen has little power, but where the money of the many is de­
posited in one reservoir—the bank—it* power for good is in­
creased many times and -will work for the best interest* of all.

6. Because the bank needs the farmer and the farmer needs
the bank.

A smoke screen of propaganda isn't
going to fool Farm Burvau members
uyi the Otwtgo (Mich.) Union, a
strong Allegan county newspaper, in
commenting on recent "startling fig­
ures" appearing In big city papers
about the American Farm Bureau.
Under the headline. "Can't- Fool the
Fann Bureau" the editor of the Otsego
Union said July 20:
"We learn through the New York
World that 'Congress resents the $16,­
000,000 farm federation lobby,’ this in
a special dispatch which might be
even deliberately aimed at the de­
struction of the American Fann Bu­
reau federation, now found very an­
noying to certain members of the na­
tional i"5*-!=tnre who speak for inter­
ests opposed to agriculture.
“A great hue and cry Is raised about
the enormous salaries paid to the per­
sonnel of the Farm Bureau Federation.
J. R. Howard, the president, is quoted
as receiving 115.000 a year, and the
secretary, Mr. Coverdale, receives
112,000: the treasurer and assistant
secretary gets $8,000; Gray Silver, the
Washington representative, $12,000;
and so runs the list covering the de­
partment of marketing, the legal de­
partment, the information department
and so on.
“It Is shown that approximately
$75,000 a year is spent in salaries.
These ’startling figures may frighten
the fanner, who has no conception
of such fabulous salaries, and per­
haps he may revolt, is of course the
hope.
"As a fact, the cost of the whole
personnel does not foot up to the
salary of any one of a hundred heads
of the great business organizations
who would like to destroy the farm
bureau federation, put an end to the
Farm Bloc and yank the tiller of the
soil back Into the yoke.
"It is said the bureau has grafted
Itself upon the federal organization;
made possible the Smith-Lever act;
and is now the dictator of the Farm
Bloc. If that be so. then senators who
form the Bloc have operated much
more efficiently in the Interest of the
heart of America than the Indepen­
dents who roll the pork barrel with­
out dictation.
"If there is anything wrong with the
Farm Bureau it will not be disinte-

For STATE SENATOR

MICKIE SAYS

Clinton County's Candidate

George G. Hunter
Served Clinton county as its Repre­
sentative in the State Legislatures of
1919 and 1921.
His service in the House during
the first term was of sufficiently high
order to win for him the appoint­
ment to the Chairmanship of State
Affairs in the second term, one of
the strongest and most important
positions in the House.
Clinton County supported Barry
County's candidate for State Senator
in 1914 and 1916; and Eaton Coun­
ty’s candidates in 1918 and 1920.
Clinton County should now receive
the same fair recognition at the
hands of Barry and Eaton Counties.
Clinton County's candidate will
not lend himself to the policy of at­
tacking his opponent or his oppon­
ent’s performances. He asks only
your fair consideration.
Vote for Clinton County’s Candi­
date at the Primary Election.

met in Charlotte and the result was the organization on April 15, 1921,
of the Farmers and Merchants Mutual Windstorm Insurance Company
of Michigan, which has made probably the largest growth in the
same period of time of any mutual insurance company ever organized.
Today, at the age of 164 months, it has eight hundred and twentyone members, with $3,174,000 of insurance in force, the insurance be­
ing well scattered over fourteen counties in the state.
.

Thia remarkable growth is undoubtedly due to the practical, econ­
omical features of the company. Its agents do not receive all of the
first assessment paid. Its officers are paid less than they are worth,
rather than four times their earning ability. It has not yet been nec­
essary to make an assessment, all claims have been paid promptly and
the books show a cash balance of about $1500 on hand.
If you are interested in a policy in this company or in securing an
agency, write to the secretary, E. V. Smith, Nashville, Mich.

The body color is of a rich dark blue, framed by ebony black trim­

The graceful stream lines give a true Impression of the car’s fleet­

AUCTION

A Preference
for Federal Bonds
There is no denying the fact that there actually is a
very strong and growing preference for “Federal”
bonds.
Simply hundreds upon hundreds of investors
Michigan and thruout the rest of the country twli'we
that Federal First Mortgage Real Estate Serial Gold
Bonds are the very best securities they can possibly
secure for investment.
Our own alm and intent from the very outset of this
company years ago has been to earn for “Federal
bonds just that precise reputation
We made up our minds at the start that “Federal”
should be known- as the best bonds.

Every bond issue that we have brought forth has
been based upon that principle.

And today, we believe, our First Mortgage Real
Estate Gold Bonds are generally regarded as being
practically the safest, most .stable investments on
the security market.

The intrinsic value of the bonds themselves is further
strengthened by the staunch soundness and solid
financial standing of the Federal Bond &amp; Mortgage
Company

NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1922

FARMERS FEDERATED LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE
Organized Farmers Won Fight to Put State Income Tax Measure
Up to People—It Would Ease Heavy Load Carried By
Farm Property.

Standing, left to right—Alfred Allen, Mazon, preaident of Associated FarmerW Clubs; Nathan T. Hull,
Lansing, Michigan State Grange, also president of the Mlohigan Milk Producers Association; Fred Smith,
Elk Rapids, member of Board of Directors of State Farm Bureau and Michigan Potato Growers Exchange.
Stated, left to right—James Nicol, South Haven, president of Michigan State Farm Bureau; A. B. Cook,
Owosso, Master of Michigan State Grange; Representative Frank R. Mosier, of Bravo, who introduced State ■
Income Tax measure to legislature; John 1. Strachan, Muir, Gleaners.

Michigan farmers Remanded a state
Income tax from the 1921 legislature
bo that five to ten billion dollars in
Michigan In stocks, bonds and other
hidden Intangible property should be
placed on the tax rolls and bear their
Just share of the tax burden. Today
thi* great wealth In Intangible prop­
erty pays practically no state tax.
The state income tax proposition
met determined &lt; opposition in the
legislature, notwithstanding the fact
that five billion dollars In farm and
town real estate, less than half the
taxable property In the state, is car­
rying the full .tax burden. In Michi­
gan a few concerns together pay an­
nually in Federal income taxes an
amount twice as large as Michigan’s
average annual .state tax of $20,006.€00. Hence, the farmers held, a state
Income tax would greatly relieve the
heavy bu/den now carried by farm
property and would more Justly dis­
tribute the tax burden.
A Farmer Victory.
In a bitter struggle extending over
several months leaders of the Mich­
igan State Farm Bureau, the Grange.
Gleaners, and Associated Farmers
Clubs, co-operating as the Farmers
Federated Legislative Committee,
fought the state Income tax proposi­
tion through the Legislature and got
what they sought—an opportunity for
the people to vote on It this fall. Now
It’s up to the 175.000 organized farm­
ers in Michigan to study the proposed
income tax law and vote tbe legisla­
ture authority to enact such a law.
The Farm Bureau and the Farmers*
Legislative Committee helped enact
IS constructive farm laws at the last
session.

JAMES NICOL
President of the Michigan State
Farm Bureau.

Nothing came to farmers or any one
else out of the 1921 legislature for.
the mere asking. Hundreds of mea­
sures were offered that never again
saw the light of day. The Farm Bu­
reau specialized on the most import­
ant of the farmers' business and
shouldered its way through. The Bu­
reau was big enough to demand rec­
ognition and got it. and the Michigan
legislature passed more constructive
farmer legislation in 1921 than ever
bi for®. It was the first time In Mich­
igan farmers had been able to present
a powerful united opinion to the legIsiaturo.

Protected Live Stock Men.
Farm Bureau pressure gave the
right of way to several bills to protect
the purity and health of farm animals.
Granting of license to unsound or
grade stallions was prohibited. Laws
{o keep diseased sheep out of Michi­
gan were made effective. It was
made unlawful to exhibit or offer for
sale pure-bred cattle until they have
passed the tuberculin test.
Heavy fine or imprisonment or
both was made the penalty for fraud
In registering animals as pure-bred
stock, also for fraud in stating official
or semi-official butter fat production
tests.
Helped Fruit Growers
Bureau supported
Other Farm
measures carefully defined standards
for apples sold in closed containers.
Importation of dangerous insects and

Railroad Leases Bill.
Tbe Farm Bureau backed the rail­
road leases bill and it became law.
Under Its provisions local co-opera­
tive associations may appeal to the
Public Utilities Commission and find
relief if a public carrier Is found to
be collecting excessive rentals for
warehouses or other property.
The Bureau helped consolidate
overlapping state departments and
state expenses were reduced. Back­
ing an appropriations program which
called for money for actual needs
only, the Farm Bureau and other
farmers' organizations helped cut
proposed appropriations to be raised
by direct taxes in 1922 and 1923
from $66,000,000. to about $40,000,000.
Stopped Freak Laws.
Valuable service was given Michi­
gan farmers by the Farm Bureau’s
work In weeding out freak legislation
that would have been a nuisance to
agAculture. These measures either
died in committee or were so amend­
ed as to remove their harmful fea­
tures. This work was fully as import­
ant as the enactment of constructive
legislation. With a voting strength of 97.000
and an organization which kept the
eyes of every Michigan fanner open
to what was being done at Lansing,
the Farm Bureau got results in the
1921 legislature.

Organization
Has Taught Farmers a Lesson
Farmers are learning that they
must be organized on an equality
with the great organized groups of
business and labor if farming in­
terests are to be advanced.
Our great industrial and com­
mercial associations prove the need
for organization today. We find
the business man, the professional
man, the merchant and the work­
ingman co-operating with his fel­
lows in an organization which
looks out for his interests and
his business.

New comes the farmer. He has
organized the FARM BUREAU.
In three years he has marched
from the tail-end of. the column to
the front. Capital and labor are
strongly organized by years of ef­
fort, yet few organizations have
accomplished as much as the Farm
Bureau has in its short history.
Witness the constructive farm
laws passed by Congress and the
Michigan Legislature since the
Farm Bureau came. The Bureau
proved to the railroads that farm­
ers must have a freight rate reduc• tion. They got it six months ahead
of any other industry. Through
the Farm Bureau co-operative mar­
keting and other marketingreforms
are coming in months instead of
years.

The Farm Bureau must have
united farmer support to continue
the foregoing types of work.
Farm Bureau dues are lower than
those of any other organized in­
dustry. Membership in the Barry
County, Michigan and American
Farm Bureaus is ?10.00 a year.
Newspaper pressmen, without any property
investment to protect, pay $30.00 a year or­
ganization dues.- Organized carpenters,
machinists, railway men and others pay
about the same dues to maintain their organ­
izations. Business men pay from $10.00 to
$100.00 or more annually for their Chamber
of Commerce memberships.
These other organizations can not and will
not assume farmers’ burdens. If farmers
don’t protect their own interests through a
strong Farm Bureau, no one else will.
Farmers have here a responsibility to them­
selves and their business. They must go
ahead or fall behind.

The Farm Bureau has accomplished won­
derful results in three years in spite of the
most difficult conditions. We have come
through one of the worst periods in history
without disaster.'

Consider these facts with the seriousness
they deserve. You, as a Barry County
farmer have a Farm Bureau organization.
It is up to you to maintain it. Results have
been gotten. Only by organization can
farmers advance and protect their interests.
. Next week a committee of Farm Bureau
members will call upon you and ask you to
join or renew your Farm Bureau member­
ship. It h the best investment for farming
that any farmer can mak$.

Renew your Farm Bureau membership Sept 11-20! It’s your organization.
Stand by it!

Board of Delegates Hold. Annual Meeting July 19, at M. A. C.—
Endorse* Farm Bureau Membership Campaign
A little more than a year ago W. C. Durant announced that on August 1, 1921,
the public would have the opportunity to purchase a very good motor car at a very
reasonable price.
.
The puccess of Durant Motors since that announcement has been the talk of the automobile world.
Never before in the history of the industry has a single manufacturer accomplished so much in
so short a time!.
.
Never before in the history of the industry has a car received so generous and enthusiastic a re­
ception.

Six Durant factories have been built or acquired, with a capacity of thiee hundred and twentyfive thousand cars per year.
More than thirty thousand Durant Fours and Durant Sixes have been sold.

More than ten thousand men and women are given employment through Durant activities.
All this accomplished in a year of business depression and uncertainty.
This is a commercial achievement of great magnitude.

and an increase in average monthly

Detroit Is encouraging co-operative
produce marketing by Michigan farm­
ers. The farmers are doing it through
the Farm Bureau Produce Exchange,
which is operating in Detroit a whole­
sale store, a separate Jobbing business
and stalls on both the eastern and
western farmers' markets.
Detroit wants Michigan fruit, vege
tables, eggs and poultry and is glad
to pay a good price tor uniform high
quality and a dependable pack. So
says Frank Bloom, sales manager of
toe Farm Bureau's Produce Exchange.
Results gotten by the Exchange prove
his statement
The Produce Exchange opened June
10. It's business is expanding rapidly.
Today it serves 25 Farm Bureau co­
operative associations and is making
money for their xnembera The first
week in July the Exchange sold for
Farm Bureau men four carloads of
raspberries. The salefl netted. the
growers 10 to 30 cents a crate more
than toe old line Detroit produce trade
was averaging for its shippers on
similar shipments. This deal netted
the co-operators about $100 per car.

The State Farm Bureau established
its Produce Exchange at Detroit to

ment of the State Farm Bureau. To­
day it is separately Incorporated, but
it is affiliated with the Farm Bureau.
It is one of the\ great marketing ser­
vices which the State Farm Bureau
baa given to Michigan farmers. Any
local co-operative elevator association
of Farm Bureau members may con­
tract the services of the Elevator Ex­
change.'
What The Exchange Does
The Michigan Elevator Exchange
enables 10,000 or more farmer mem­
bers of its 100 elevator associations to
market their grain, hay and beans in
an orderly and systematic manner. It
replaces ruinous competition of 10,000
competing fanner salesmen with a co­
operative marketing plan which mar­
kets their crops through toe best grain
salesman obtainable. It relieves too
farmer member of his marketing
anxiety by providing his own farmercontrolled market machinery which
is working for his interests.
Co-operation of the IQJXJO or more
members enables toe Exchange to hire
toe best marketing specialists to be
had. They co-operate fully with local
managers of member elevators. They
are In close touch with terminal mar­
kets. Long distance telephone speeds
market news and Exchange advice to
the local elevator managers. Mapy

market members* products to the best
advantage and to give the grower the
full return from his produce less the
.actual marketing cost. The Exchange
charges the regular commission fee
and sets a&amp;de any savings, which will
be returned to member associations
in patronage dividends. Furthermore,
the Exchange is In Detroit to Increase
the demand for Michigan fruits, truck,
eggs. poultry; also to Increase re­
turns by prontoting through organised
co-operative effort uniform quality
and packs. The Exchange is there to
educate Detroit to the superiority of
Michigan produce, to establish and
maintain a reputation for our goods
and to represent the produce farmer
on tor Detroit markets.
Whom It Serves.
All co-operative associations of
Farm Bureau members are eligible for
Produce Exchange service. Any asso­
ciation of the Potato Exchange, the
Milk Producers Association, toe Eleva­
tor Exchange, the Michigan Fruit
Growers, Inc., or tbe Live Stock Ex­
change may have the services of the
Produce Exchange for its members
merely by signing a contract to mar­
ket all Detroit-bound produce through
toe Farm Bureau Produce Exchange.
There Is no membership fee for
co-ops of toe above organizations
Other co-op associations sign the same
agreement and pay a membership fee
of 325, payable but once.
Recently the Michigan Potato Growerg Exchange directors authorized the
Farm Bureau Produce Exchange to
represent at Detroit produce Interests

The Farm Bureau seed department
handles only northern grown seed and
guarantees Its origin, genuineness,
purity and germination. It cleans ev­

That’s why 63.000 members bought
Farm Bureau seed this spring.
The Farm Bureau has built a great
co-operative market for Farm Bureau
seed In Michigan and other states.
Members send their seed to be clean­

up as an astonishing fact that there

to make a good-sized lake. About
1,740 tons of water b carried by a big
passefiger rtssel. The drinking d*alet

NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1922

VOLUME XLIX

WHY A FARMER SHOULD HAVE A BANK ACCOUNT
1. Because the farmer creates wealth from the soil and the
bank conserves and safeguards wealth and multiplies its use
2. Because the farmer, in addition to his capital—-the soil,
his tools, teams and his own physical strength — often needs
money or credit to supplement and keep his capital at work, and
the bank creates and sells the credit he requires.
3. Because the farmer, of all men, should bo independent;
but in many cases he Is not and must depend on others-for sup­
plies and assistance until harvest: and there are but three help­
ers to which he may go—his landlord, the supply merchant or
the bank.
If when he has had money he has kept It in the
bank, he has a legitimate claim on its consideration when he
needs to borrow-to make his-crop, or for other purposes, at a
fair and legal- rate of interest
4. Because the farmer Is In truth a business man and should
conduct his -business In a business-like way; the bank is the far­
mer's and business man's friend and promotes the business of
the section by safe-keeping its money and increasing its power
through extension of conservative credit.
The bank becomes
in truth his bookkeeper, as well as his safe.

5. Because a small amount of money In possession of each
citizen has little power, but where the money of the many is de­
posited in one reservoir—the bank—its power for good is In­
creased many, times and will work for the best Interests of all.

8. Because the hank needs the farmer and the farmer needs
the bank.

Herbert W. Hart was born in
Castleton township. May 15, 1854,
and departed this life September 6,
1922, from cerebral hemorrhage, at
home of bis oldest daughter. Mrs.
Walter Hess, Berkley, Mich., aged
68 years, 3 months and 22 days.
August 20, 1884, he was united in
marriage to Miss Rosetta C. Hale,
and to this union were bom five
children. Mrs. Ella Hess of Berkley.
Mrs. Cliff Tarbell of this place, Earl
and Ergo Hart of Berkley and Miss
Zellmah Hart of Lansing, all of
whom besides the mother survive to
mourn the loss of a loving busband
and father.
The body was brought here Friday
and the funeral held Saturday from
the borne of his daughter. Mrs^ Cliff

view cemetery. Rev. Niles of the

CARD OF THANKS.
We desire to sincerely thank all
those who assisted us in any manner

pecially to thank Rev. and Mrs. Niles
of Vermontville for their comfort­
ing words and beautiful singing,
members of I. O. O. F. lodge No. 86,

and tbe ladies who assisted her in
serving the dinner on the day of the
funeral, and others for the beautiful
floral offerings.

WORSE THAN THE W’AR.
In the past eighteen months there
have died in the United States more
than twice as many Americans, as a
result of automobile accidents, as
were killed In the great war. Only
48,000 of our boys went west In the
big conflict, while in the last year
and a half 91,000 Americana died aa
a result of motor car accidents.
The startling feature of these fig­
ures lies in a knowledge that the
war Is enued, while the motor car is
with os to stay and to increase In
Despite tbe heavy toll it takes in
human life ^nothing is going to stop
its progress.
Consideration of the situation
brings ltd Importance home to tbe
‘country even more than to the city
because nearly seventy per cent of
the automobiles manufactured ’ in
America are sqld and used in towns
of five thousand population and un­
der and on the farms.
This means that preventable
deaths in the country- as a result of
automobile activities is proportion­
ately great, a situation so serious
that it cries aloud that something be
done to halt this yearly national dis­
aster.
One of the great sources of auto­
mobile accidents is the grade cross­
ing, a problem in every small com­
munity.
•
In many state* the law prescribe*
that when grade crossings are elimi­
nated the villages through which they
pass must stand a good proportion
of the expense. This is a heavy bur­
den on the taxpayers.
On the other band to order the
railroads generally to eliminate,
crossings at grade, either by an el­
evation or by submerging of tracks
would appear to be an unjust de­
mand.
This matter of grade crossing* is
more than local. Indeed it is so
national In character It’ might be
well for Washington to assist more
materially than it does in checking
ths country’s most notorious death
traps.

To use these monosyllables at the
right time and in the proper place is
the earnest wish of every fair-minded
man or woman' who would have "peace
and good-will on earth."
But to do so in trtuh and mercy,
when dissension is rife and righteous­
ness seems to be tumbling noisily like
mountains In an earthquake, requires
the wisdom of Solomon and the pa­
tience of Job, accompanied with divine
guidance.

TIPS TO RADIOISTS

At Muncie, Ind., bacon was
fried by means of a radio cur­
rent At last an explanation for
that "frying" nolte.
Gifford Plnchot nominated for
governor of Pennsylvania by the
vote of the people, acknowl­
edges hts great Indebtedness to
the radio. A primary coll no
doubt played an Important part
An Inventor of Chicago claims
to have Invented radio apparatus
that permits of successful com­
munication with the spirits.”
We hope that tbe anti-prohlbltionlsts will not misinterpret
this claim.
The police department of
Portland, Ore., has asked for an
appropriation for radio receiv­
ing and broadcasting stations
and to equip the police automo­
biles with radio apparatus. Cop­
per wire, it is needless to say,
will be used.
Lord Northcllffe, famous Eng­
lish editor, In speaking of the
future of journalism, recently
predicted that radio would have
an effect upon the publication
of newimpara that will equal
the Invention of the linotype
and high-speed press. He said
that radio would undoubtedly

Starting today we shall give a de­
tailed description of the vacuum tube
when used as an amplifier. Tills series,
as In the past. Is continuous and If
clipped out and saved will be con­
venient for reference.
When the three-electrode vacuum
tube was used as a detector, the cir­
cuit* associated with It were such
that where a symmetrical alternating
difference was applied to the grid,
a symmetrical change in plate current
resulted. That Is to say, the vacuum
tube acted as a rectifier. In addition
to rectifying, the tube also amplified.
The variation In plate clrcultrwas “K.”
where UK” is the amplification con­
stant of the tube, times what it would
have been in a two-Cd ectrode tube, for
the same potential Impressed on.the
grid.
By properly adjusting the electrical
constants of the drcults associated
with a three-electrode tube, symmetrl-

the bend of the characteristic curve
symmetrical changes lu grid potential
will not cause symmetrical changes is
plate current Since Che plate current
variation in such case would bear only
slight relation to the grid variation in
potential,’ the output of the tube would
be distorted.
In applying amplifiers to receiving
sets used to pick radiophone stations,
distortion Is one of the greatest dif­
ficulties to overcome. Too strong
_
signals will result Ln decreased hmpllflcatlon. In Figure
..
\ If the _ap_
28,
plied variation In grid potential were
10 times that shown in the example,
th* plate current would not change
10 times as much, because of the
bends In the curve, due to saturation.
Finally, a condition can be reached
where thp use of an amplifier tube
will decrease the signal strength be­
cause of the saturation of the tube.
The rectified Incoming signals would
be louder without the use of the ampli­
fier tube, because of the inability of
tbe plate current of the tube caused
by 'saturation to increase in propor­
tion to the signal strength.
There are, In general, two factors
that can be taken from the charac­
teristic curve and the second Is the
length of the straight portion qf the
curve. The slope of the straight pnr

Is Brooklyn Bridge Falling Down?

That largest suspension span on the famous old structure, the
Brooklyn Bridge at New York, has slipped under the constant ham­
mering of traffic and authorities have dosed it to all except pedes­
trians. Arrow points to slipping cable.

What one is Acre of au

that

the education of drivers on the
things they ought to know about the
law has been put In motion by the
Michigan Department of Public
Safety. The campaign includes the
wide distribution of placards showing
a simple set of hand signals which
have the approval of automobile
club officials and safety workers.
I There are but three of the signals.
The first one. to indicate a right
hand turn Is made by* the driver
putting out his left arm, forearm
raised upright, at a right angle from
the rest of tbe arm, palm to the
front. When the driver gives this
signal the man who Is following
needs only to swing slightly to the
left, because a right hand turn does
not necessitate any stop wh'ch will
block folloving traffic.
To indlcatf a left turn, which will
block traffic completely, tbe arm is
extended straight, out. palm to the
front. This is the signal which has
been used for all purposes by driv­
ers, and warns following drivers to
come to a full stop .unless there Is
room to keep moving until the car
whose driver has signalled is opt of
the way.
The third signal is to indicate that
a car is stopping. This is given by
extending the arm ont and downward
at a 45 degree angle. As with the
first signal, this will only necessitate
a driver who Is following swinging
out and going around, but a different
signal from the right hand turn Is
needed to cover the case where a man
signals a right hand turn and the
driver immediately following him al­
so wants to make a right hand turn.
If the same signals were used for
both right hand turn and stop, con­
fusion might result, but under the
code proposed complete understand*ing should follow.
। "Drive carefully. The graveyards
&gt;are filling up with reckless drivers
and their victims,” Is one plea, and
("Do not take chances in passing oth­
er vehicles. Sound a warning. Give
I the other fellow a chance” is anothjer. The Department hopes, by dlnIning these warnings into the ears of
motorists all oyer tho state and by
obtaining the general education of
motorists on the hand signal code to
cut down the number of funerals.
English Cooking.
Elinor Glyn, the novells*, said at a
Hollywood tea:
“The cooking of the Southern
mammy Is the best In the world.
English cooking is the worst.
"An Englishwoman once made a
plumcake. It was rated a very good
। plumcake by her family. A little
heavy, but very good.
"Well, the plumcake didn’t con­
sume particularly fast, and so, after
a few days, the woman got tired see­
ing it about, and threw* it out Into the
duck-yard.
"An hour or so passed, and there
came a loud knocking at the kitchen
door. It was a horrified llttjc girl.
"Well,” said tbe woman.
"Your ducks have sank!” gasped
the little girl.”

A Word About
Federal Men
It has Iccig been in our minds to speak thus directly to you about
Federal men, our representatives who call upon you from time
to time.
They are selected men, chosen with a thought first to character and
second to sales ability.
As you will realize we cannot afford to have an institution like the
Federal Bond &amp; Mortgage Company mis-represented.

So we choose our men with care from those who come to us for a
connection. Few are worthy but these few highly so.

Such men naturally earn good incomes but they do not make the
money their ability would command if they devoted'~themselves
with the same earnestness to the marketing of insecure securities,
speculative stocks, and fraudulent enterprises that lure you with
promises of big dividends.

We repeat this—we cannot pay these men what they could get
from promoters of get-rich-quick companies.
The margin of profit in a business such as ours is far too narrow to
compete with these wild-cat concerns who can afford to give sales­
men a rich -slice of what they take from you because they know
they’ll never pay you back.
So these men of ours have deliberately chosen to represent a sound
honest house at a consequent loss to themselves in annual income
And we ask you to think of them in this light when they come to
you. They are men of solid character and sincere purpose.

They are selling Federal Bonds with all their energy because they
believe with heart and soul that Federal Bonds are Better Bonds.
They put their own savings into Federal Bonds. Their fathers, their
mothers, their relatives, purchase Federal Bonds.
They believe that they are doing more than selling bonds. They
believe they are doing a social service in inducing people'to put
their funds into securities of the high calibre and faultless quality
of * '*■ Federal Bonds.

Again we say, these men who represent Federal are men of char­
acter. They deserve your courteous consideration; first, for them­
selves; second, because they are the representatives of Michigan's
greatest real estate bond house; and third, because they offer you
the bonds the world knows are Better Bonds

PLANS.

In 1023 Will Complete Trunk Lines
to Nashville and Wall Lake.
Representatives of county road
commissions of southwestern Michi­
gan met in Kalamazoo one day last
week with the engineers of the state
highway department for the purpose
of considering trunk line work to be
done in the various counties repre­
sented there. Our readers will be
especially Interested in what was de­
cided as to Barry county.
To appreciate the conclusions
reached as to the 1923 program, it
Is necessary to consider the situation
of the trunk lines in Barry county
at this time. Just now the interven­
ing gaps are being constructed be­
tween this city and Middleville and
the Barry-Kent county line on Trunk
Line No. 37. That will leave a mile
of cement highway, through Middle­
ville to be built next year, lor which
the state and county have appropriat­
ed the necessary funds. The paving
of Hanover, also provided for, will
have to be deferred until 1923. Both
these delays are caused by inability
of the state to procure cement. Then
there will remain on No. 37 only the
road from State Street to the Broad­
way bridge and from the Broadway
bridge to the city limits beyond Riv­
erside cemetery, which ought to be
cemented. That will complete Trunk
Line No. 37 from the south county
line through this dty to the north
county line, where It connects with
the Kent road system.
Work is now progressing on Trunk
Line No. 79, Hastings to Nashville,
from the County Farm easj to the
foot of Barryville hill. No work has
been done on the Colgrove Highway
this year. It is already completed
from this city eight miles to a point
one-half 'mile west of Shults. From
the end of the present completed road
mentioned, the entire stretch to the
county line remains to be completed.
From this city north and east to Bar­
bers Corners is now a good gravelled
road. From Barber’s Corners east
arid north through Woodland and to
whatever point it may leave tbe
county an,. Improved * road will have
to be constructed.
At the Kalamazoo meeting, the rep­
resentatives of tho state highway de­
partment declared that their 1923
program for Barry county would be
the completion of Trunk Line 79
from the foot of Barryville hill four
miles eastward to the village of Nash­
ville; the completion of the short
gap on Trunk Line 37 In this city,
and the extension of the Colgrove
Highway from its present terminus
one-hair mne west oi anuitz south­
westward over the Zerbal hill to
Cloverdale and to
Wall Lake,
a distance of about seven miles. On

state and national government will
bear 75 per cent of the cost, and the
county 25 per cent It will be read­
ily seen how Important and neces­
sary it is for the county to enter
heartily into co-operation, with the
state highway department In carry­
ing out this program for next year
in Barry county.
This program will open up to Nash­
ville a trunk Mne to Hastings, Battle
Creek and Grand Rapids; and through
Covert road No. 11, leading north
from Nashville, that town will have
easy access to the Lansing-Detroit
trunk line. We hope that the state
highway department will plan very
soon a liberal appropriation for com­
pleting Trunk Line 79 south from
Nashville through Maple Grove and
Assyria Center to the Calhoun coun­
ty line. Three miles have already
been constructed. The other nine or
ten miles should be improved very
soon. And in 1924, the Colgrove
Highway should be extended south­
westward to the Barry-Kalamazoo
county line. B^rry and Eaton road
authorities ought to join hands to
secure a good road from Nashville
to Vermontville south of *the Michi­
gan Central.
The news of what the state high­
way department is prepared to do in
Barry county next year is very wel­
come. and we are sure the county au­
thorities who are responsible for this
county’s action will see that the
state authorities have the fullest co­
operation in carrying out their road
program in Barry county.—Hastings

LATE HOURS

HY is it that the dances yot
dance—or once danced—after
one o’clock always scum so much mon
stimulating and joyous than th&lt;
dances that you dance while the nlghi
Is still young?
It may be that it la only after wt
have been dancing for some time that
we get really Into the swing of it, oi
perhaps we can find the explanation it
the old truism that stolen sweets art
best, and that It is only because we
have a feeling that we are robbln®
ourselves of our sleep that we enjoy
these early morning dances.
The fact la that while the war lasted
our dances were shorter. And some
people went so far as to predict that
we could never go back to the old-time
custom of dancing or allowing our
daughters and sons to dance until “all
hours" of the morning. But the
armistice had not been signed many
days before dances twere lasting long­
er and now all the old-time enthus­
iasm for dancing till dawn seems to
have been revived. At least sucn seems
to be the case In many parts of the
country and in Washington and New
York more than one hostess has
served breakfast to her late dance
guests at about five In the morning
after a dance. And this breakfast, be
it known, consists of nothing less
hearty than coffee, rolls and sausages.
During war days the dances began
earlier, but now the hour has been
set on to ten o’clock In a good many
cases. This means a supper at midrflght or somewhat la«.er. Of course
many people feel that they have tar­
ried long enough if they linger until
after supper, but the dance enthus-'
lasts—the young folk—linger on In the
good old-fashioned way.
Whatever your own taste for late
hours may be, however, you should al­
ways make sure that you are not out­
staying your welcome and just because
a company of young persons become
more Interested In their dancing as
the hours advance Is no reason why
they should impose on the good nature
of a hostess who has not planned for
such a late breaking np of her party.
In general. It Is safe to assume that If
your hostess is expecting her guests
to dance till a very late hour, she will
set the hour for the beginning of her
dance as late as nine or ten. If the
hour Is earlier, then the guests should
make a po|nt of going borne earlier.

NASHVILLE,

TO A MAN’S HEART

A vast number of people still hold
the opinion that the way to a man’s
heart Is through his stomach, and
Ruth Cameron must have believed it,
because when she fouud Paul Hubtmrd hungry and disgusted with his
boarding . place, she took him home
and cook Al for him a roast chicken
and escalloped potatoes and every­
thing else to match.
•
Inevitably, then, followed Paul's neg­
lect of Nancy Barksdale, whom he
had been courting for a long time, and
wjio, by her owu telling, didn’t known
what the Inside of a kitchen looked
like. In her home a number of serv­
ants carried on the work behind the
scenes, but Ruth had been reared un­
der no such handicap. She could whip
mashed potatoes to a flufliness that
made you afraid they might blow away,
and beat a cake Into a lightness that
made It fit for someone who was much
more of nn angel than was Paul Hub­
bard. Paul was.tremendously human.
As his dinner Invitations from Ruth
multiplied, his eveulngs with Nancy
diminished.
Then the Jimmy Bentons, who were
fond of Paul, took a hand In the affair,
and asked him to board with them.
"Now we’ll see If he goes to call on
that Cameron cook so often," chuckled
Jimmy to Mrs. Jimmy. “After he eats
your cooking three times a dhy. I’ll
bet Miss Ruth loses her drawlug card."
But It was already too late, or Miss
Cameron was too Channing a cook, or
something, because after that Paul
paid her more attention than ever. Mr.
and Mrs. Jimmy had a difficult time
of It, trying to keep him home even
when Nancy happened to be calling
there.
“I tell you, a fellow who works bard
for a living ought to marry a girl that
kndws how to cook,” he would declaim
vehemently, as though someone were
disputing him, and it soon became
plain to everyone that he was Intend­
ing to marry Ruth. Though he hadn’t
asked her, that young lady herself
often made verbal speculations upon
the style of weeding ring she pre­
ferred to her friend Marjorie.
To help matters along, Mrs. Benton
sprained her ankle end lost her maid
the same day, and Paul Hubbard was
obliged to go back to the dark, greasy
Inn for dally sustenance. After,three
days of trying to endure lukewarm
vegetables and clammy salmis, he de­
cided to marry at once, and move into
n cozy apartment right next to the
Jimmy Bentons.
That evening, on the Camerons’ ve­
randa, he talked and talked and talked,
until almost every topic In the world
was exhausted, except the one he was
thinking of, and then, just as he
got his chair moved closer, and his
throat cleared, and his heart thump­
ing violently, the telephone rang. Mrs.
Benton was calling Mr. Hubbard.
"I have found someone to help in
the kitchen, so you may come back
here for your meals tomorrow," she
said.
*
“Thanks,
Mrs.
Jirpmy, you’ve
sqved my life." Paul felt so relieved
that he lunged forward quickly to tell
Ruth about It, but the hall was dark,
and be stumbled headlong over a foot­
stooL Ruth answered bls groans by
coming at once. She found him nurs­
ing a great welt on his shin. Some­
how, after he had picked himself up
and got back to the veranda and
straightened his ]&gt;ompadour, .he didn't
feel so much like proposing, so he
postponed It until Sunday afternoon.
In his canoe, under the willows, and
took his leave at 10 o’clock.
In spite of her sprained ankle and
her untrained kitchen help, Mrs. Ben­
ton’s Sunday dinner was a great suc­
cess. When Paul offered to serve the
dessert, she gratefully sent him to the
kitchen, where he saw a blue apro^
almost hiding a girl as she stood at
the sink washing dishes. For a mo­
ment he stared, then he took big
strides In her direction. ,
“Nancy, what are you doing here?"
For answer, Nancy looked fright­
ened, and said nothing.
“Nancy I" Paul’s tone was very ten-

“You weren’t supposed to kno* IL
I only came because Mrs. Jimmy said
you were starving.”
Two strong arms kept Nancy from
wilting, and a torrent of tender words
made tears out of the question.
“I’ve been starving for something
better than food. Nancy, am I going
to get it?" She held up her mouth
for a kiss.
From the dining room Jimmy Ben­
ton was heard calling loudly for his
dessert, and 'so a lot of things which
would have been very pleasant just
then had to be put off until they went
canoeing an hour later.
“You were a darling to do all that
for me, Nancy, and you know I never
stopped loving you, only I got a crazy
notion—Nancy, you're the sweetest
girl Id the world!”
(CopyrtanLj
Presently they, heard voices in a
canoe which was still out of sight
around the l&gt;end. To Paul one of them
was unmistakable.

ora in her silken scarf fairly fascinat­
ed him. In a flash, he called it a "rainThe girl stopped at shop windows;
the man paused by near-hy shop win­
dows. Hl* courage failed him, how­
ever, when his vision of loveliness dis­
appeared into a quaint little bookshop,
but be lost no time in deciding that
the bookstore probably bad just the
volume of Kipling that he had wanted
for some time.
The girl, who bad evidently selected
a book, was murmuring something
about having lost her money, as she
fumbled in her little purse, while the
sales clerk, with suspicious eyes, wait­
ed impatiently. Then the girl glanced
at him, a distressed look In her deep
blue eye*, and before he realized it,
he had paid for the. book and was
standing out In the street again. And
his “rainbow" scarf girt was actually
speaking to him, thanking him for bib
kindness!
“I can’t imagine how I lost the
money," she said In a perplexed tone.
“I wonder—I wonder if yon would mind
very much walking down a few blocks
to the Betty Brown tea-room? I am
going to meet a friend there, who will
return the money' to you.”
Then she smiled. In a flash the man
understood why men wrote songs
about smiles that made one happy.
The walk to the tcn-fdo^ svns ridicu­
lously short, but luck again favored
Brett, for the girl, with a tiny pout of
disappointed surprise, found that her
Mend had not arrived.
Bat the pout changed into a dim­
pling smile when a “Waffles and Syrup"
sign tempted Brett to suggest a cup of
tea, and the adventure progressed
famously.
,
. It was not until he met Ambrose,
waiting as stiffly and sedately as only
Ambrose A. Potter could wait, that
Brett came back to earth, and then he
tried to visualize the look of polite in­
credulity that would appear on his
friend's face, if he were to hear of the
afternoon's adventure. Brett smoth­
ered a chuckle as he discovered that
be had not heard one word of Potter’s
conversation.'
“Sorry you’re here for so short a
time, Somner,” Ambrose was saying,
unfolding his napkin with a precise
gesture. "I &gt;:auted you to meet Mary."
Oh, yes, Brett remembered. Am­
brose, old chap, bad got himself a
fiancee with the growing prosperity of
his hay and grain business. He won­
dered if waffles were included on the
menu.
“Do yon serve waffles?", he Inquired
of the waiter, who promised vaguely

“You were surprised to hear of my
engagement?" Potter asked, as he
fumbled In his coat pocket. He pro­
duced a photograph and, with a flour­
ish which surprised Brett, exclaimed:
"Meet the future Mrs. Ambrose Au­
gustus Potter."
Brett glanced rather carelessly at
the picture, aud then stared and
stared!
“Is that one of the scarfs from—In­
dia—she's—wearing?” he finally blurt­
ed, mopping the perspiration from his
forehead.
“Yes," complacently answered Am­
brose, “she has an aunt in India—"
Brett sank back weakly in his chair,
but managed to summon enough
strength to stop the passing waiter.
“Never mind the waffles!" There
was a savage tone In bis voice.
“Of course, this little picture doesn’t
tlce.'* Mid Ambrose, an he carefully
put tbe picture b&amp;ck into bl* pocket
“She has nice eyes, and rather pretty,

GREAT BAKE FACTS
HE Great Trees in tbe forest stood
naked and bare, for Old Winter had
come and taken away their beautiful
colored dresses that Mistress Fall bud
given them In place of their pretty
summer clothes.
But the evergreen trees were still
dressed and they cried “Shame!" to
the tall bare trees as they shivered
in the winter winds.
&gt;
At first the Great Trees did not
notice the evergreens and held their
poor naked heads high with pride above
their green-gowned neighbors, but it
was no use pretending, for, as the
days went by, the evergreens became
more scornful and at last the great
trees had to acknowledge to each
other that they were a sorry sight.
“It is no use looking for Summer.
She went to sleep long ago," said one
tall tree, “and Mistress Fall is too

far away now to bear our cull, and
Old Winter has nc pity in his cold,
hard heart for us."
“We might ask the help of the
Forest Goblins,” said another tree.
"They come out on moonlight nights
before the snow conies and they may
know of some one who will help us if
they cannot."
.
“I cannot understand why the ever­
greens should be so disagreeable.
They have never' been so before,”
spoke up another tree.
“Why, I can tell you, brother." re­
plied a very tall tree. “Those ever-

greens huye jutt grown up and thej
are so proud 'that they can see more
than they did last year that they are
talking about everything they see.”
The first moonlight night that tbe
Forest Goblins appeared the Great
Trees told them their troubles, and.
though the Goblin* said they could not
help theiu.xthey promised to see the
Elves, whose queen was a friend of
the Queen of the Fairies.
This seemed a round-about way to
the Great Tkees to get help, hut there
was nothing else to be done and so
they had to wait.
The Great Trees had about given up
hope and the evergreens grew more
scornful every day, but one night,
when all was still and the wind was
cold and blustering, a little fainalighted on the topmost branch a
great bare tree. She had ridden to
the forest on the tall of Blustering
Wind without his knowing a thing
about It and as he passed along off
she jumped.
"I have a message for you from
my queen,” she whispered to Great
Tree. "The Fain Queen will help you
and she gives you her promise that
soon you shall all outshine in splendor
the evergreens that scorn you."
As Old Blustering Wind passed again
the fairy caught at his trailing tail
and off she w^nt, but’the Great Trees
felt happier and they waited and
watched.
Then one moonlight night, when the
evergreens looked up at the great bare
trees, their cries of “Shame!" froze
before they left their branches. For
instead of being naked and bare, the
Great Trees were clothed In gorgeous
splendor such as the evergreen had
never beheld.
The Fain Queen had sent the snov
fairies and Jack Frost to dress the
Great Trees. They wore diamonds and
their long branches were powdered
with sparkling frost, -and there tbej
stood like great kings dressed in white
and silver.
The evergreens were certain that
the next day. when the sun came out,
the Great Trees would be naked
again, but they were more wonderful
in their splendor ns the sunlight fell
upon them.
And no more did the evergreens cry
“Shame!” to the Great Trees, for all
through the winter did the Fairy
Queen keep them dressed in their
sparkling clothes.

FIRST—Apathy. America's peo­
ple love good humor. Feed them
well and permit them to sleep and
they will laugh through any storm
and ride through any disaster. Im­
mediately after the disasters of life
have apparently passed, however,
they settle down into a state of
apathy. That condition is today
settling upon us.
I During the war, we preached
preparation, Watchfulness, and the
curbing of all radical forces. When
peace was announced, we settled
, back into the habit of eating, sleepi ing. and laughing.
The “red"
I forces didn't sleep; the powers
i antagonistic to good government

didn t sleep. Apathy is the enemy
of preparation. America has never
been ready for any war, and unless
we cure apathy, we will never be
ready for any battle. Every boy in
America should have at least three
months of military training; every
young man in America should take
advantage of the Citizen's Training
Camp every summer.
SECOND—Broken family altars.
Ninety-three per cent of the homes
of America are without family al­
tars, and ninety-nine per cent of the
homes of the world are without
family altars. You cannot rear a
family in an un-God ly atmosphere
and give to the world virtuous sons
and daughters. Millions of our peo-

anarchy that is rampant in this
land. Bring men back to the ob­
servance of the Holy Sabbath.
FOURTH—Neglected spiritual
duties. It. is the duty of every man
to be in his church pew every Sun­
day morning, to give his child a
spiritual education, to set before his
family a spiritual example and to
give some of his time to the spiritual
work of the church. Men are neg­
lecting their churches; they are for­
getting their spiritual duties; they
are omitting to pay their obligations
to God.
America was intended to be a
land of Christian people. You can’t
be Christian and neglect your spiri­
tual obligations.

WE ARE GOING TO BE GRASSHOPPERS
Did you ever hear of Doolittle?
If some fellow had told your grandfather when he was a boy that in
the time of his grandchildren a man would lake dinner one evening on the
cool summer veranda overlooking tie broad Atlantic and at ten o’clock
bid his friends good night saying. “I am dining with friends on the Pa­
cific Coast tomorrow evening. I must be on my way," your grandfather
would have looked upon the predictor as either a laughable romancer
or a pitiable fool.
,
Well—Doolittle did ft. And not many people noticed it. The whole
world accepted It as a little news item of passing interest. Few even
noted the item and most of those who did as quickly forgot it.
Lieutenant James H. Doolittle, U. S. Army aviator, hopped off in his
aeroplane from the broad Atlantic at Pablo Beach at three minutes past
ten o'clock Labor Day. At 5.34 the next afternoon (Pacific time), he
stepped out of his sky-boat at San Diego, Calif., on the Pacific.
Doolittle stopped an hour and seven minutes at San Antonia. Texas,
to take breakfast with his wife and mother. In actual flying time, he
flew from sea to sea in twenty-one hours and eighteen minutes.
What would grandfather, as a boy, have thought of that? Nothing
more than a passing news Item of the hour now. We have grown accus­
tomed to startling events.
Some day some fellow will rise up into the heavens and sail all the
way around the world. And when that day comes, even that will not
amaze us.
We once thought it a wonderful thing to talk by wire across town.
Now we talk by wireless across the continent.
We once thought it was a great thing to go from New York to Buf­
falo in one day. Now we go from sea to sea in a day. .
’
You have seen in your school histories pictures of the little Colum­
bus fleet, the Nina, the Pinta and tie Santa Marla, compared to the mod­
ern ocean liner, nearly one-fifth of a mile long. . accommodating thous­
ands of passengers in the luxury ofpalatial grandeur.
You have seen pictures of the little kettle-like locomotive, the DeWitt
Clinton, which was the marvel of 1831 because It acquired tbe amazing
speed of 15 miles an hour. You have seen the modern engine which
pulls a palatial Pullman faster than a mile a minute. Wonderful chang­
es, aren't they? Wall—
'
The little air ship that Doolit-tle lifted above the stofin clouds and
sailed by compass was but the Santa Marla sailing an uncharted sky. A
sky where great ships will follow. It was the DeWitt Clinton piloting the
path for the up-in-the-alr passenger cdach that our children will some
day use to meet a business engagement or to greet a friend at dinner
a few thousand miles away.
All ■'■ver the skies new lines of passenger ships will fly. As Doo­
little hopped from sea to sea, we will hop from shore to shore.
Soon Asia is but a day away. We take breakfast in Buenos Ayres to­
morrow.
An eager looking urchin approach­
ed a man who was hurrying toward
the railway station.
'Carry your
grip, air?" he asked.
"No!" snanped the man.
"I’ll carry It all the way tor a quar­
ter,” aald the boy.
“I tell you I don’t want it carried!'

READY

"Don’t you?”
"No. I’don't!"
At that the lad broke into a quick
trot to keep up with his victim's
hasty strides, and in a tone of inno­
cent curiosity asked, "Then what are
you carrying it for?”—Youth’s Com­
panion.

.
In sonie states there are laws
making the employment of a nurse
in each county mandatory. A large
number of the counties in our own
state have voluntarily taken up the
employment of one or more county
nurses. It has. been shown that a
good nurse will actually save the tax^
payers more than she costs by her"
work in disease prevention. Is Bar­
ry county going to lag behind other
counties in our state in its care of
the health of its school children and
work of disease prevention?
Knowing what is being accomplish­
ed In other counties and having seen
what can be done in a short time dn
our own county we surely cannot af­
ford to drop the county hurse.
Our supervisors are always ready
to give the people what they demand.
They meet in October. If you want
a county nurse, let your supervisor
know it.

Killing frosts on Sunday and Mon­
day Mights cut down the potatoes and
other tender vegetation.
The dam­
age will not amount to much except
in a few localities, as in most in­
stances the crops were sufficiently
matured not to suffer^ from the
frosts. The prevailing drouth, how­
ever, Is regarded with much appre­
hension by the farmers, and unless
rain comes soon the damage to new­
ly sown wheat will be considerable.

Brattin is one of our most energetic,

that he will succeed goes without
saying, for those generally win suc­
cess who deserve it and Frank is one
of that kind.

never been an agricultural district,
but previous to the world war the
country was very prosperous and the
need for o
relief was never
known. O
o the ravages’ of war
and tbfe consequent cutting off of
markets, the country is In destitute
circumstances and the people are
making a plucky fight for existence.
America has for the past six years
aided them through the Near East
Relief society, which has done a
wonderful work in saving the des­
titute and orphans, in furnishing
seed grain and in maintaining work­
shops where practical arts are taught.
The Armenians ar® a thrifty, re­
sourceful race, and are deserving of
and grateful for the help which has
been given them. There are about
100,000 of them now in America, and
our readers will be Interested in the
following statements made by Rev.
M. T. Kalajian, secretary of the new
Armenian department of the Y. M.
C. A. In New York. (Rev. Kalajian
is a brother of Mrs. Adrounie of
Lacey.)
"Armenians are among the most
desirable immigrants who come here,
having a high rate of literacy, and
ranking highest of all In percentage
of naturalization, according to an in­
vestigation amoug foreign-born work­
ers, which shows that more than
half the Armenians in the country
have become citicens.
"One of the earliest Armenian
contributions to this country was the
care and cultivation of the silk worm.
The records show that two Armen­
ians came to this country as expert
cultivators of the worm, and their
work . In the Virginia colony was so
successful that in December, 1656,
the Assembly of Virginia passed a
resolution to the effect:
"That George, the Armenian, for
his encouragement in the trade of
silk and to stay in tho country to
follow the same, have 4,000 pounds
of tobacco allowed him by the As­
sembly.
"Dr. Vartan Osigtan of New Orle­
ans is director of the largest silk
worm farm in America. After ten
years of experiment, it has been
found possible, by changing the qual­
ity and quantity of food, to produce
silk in eighteen different colors, a
discovery which may revolutionize
the silk industry.
"The green color used in the
American dollar bill is another note­
worthy contribution by an Armenian,
Dr. Seropian, who sold his patents to
"Armenians have been pioneers in
the art of photo-engraving, too, and
th United States government.
have made some important inven­
tions in this line.
"The famous Casaba melon was in­
troduced by Armenians. Arakelyan
of Fresno controls the melon busi­
ness on the Pacific coast and has won
for himself the title of 'The Melon
King*.
Armenians in California
have helped the agricultural develop­
ment of the State. Armenian farm­
ers of Fresno County control forty
per cent of the acreage devoted to
raisin grapes.
"The Armenians In the United
States, in proportion to their num­
ber and as compared to other races,
have produced the largest number
of professional men, some of whom
have attained marked distinction,
more than twenty being teachers in
leading universities.
"In the World War some Armen­
ian scientists, serving the Govern­
ment in research work, rendered
noteworthy service. Among them
was Major Varsted H. Kazanjian,
Professor of Oral Military Surgery
and Dental Science at Harvard Uni­
versity, who headed the Harvard
Medical Mission which rendered such
conspicuous service in the World
War. His wonderful facial opera­
tions attracted the attention of the
medical profession all over the
world. England has conferred up­
on him the order of the Companion
of St. George and St. Michael.
"There are more than two hundred
Armenian practicing physicians and
dentists in this country. Notable
among them are Dr. Menas Gregory,
alienist at Bellevue Hospital, New
York; Dr. H. Malejiau of Detroit,
formerly an instructor at the Uni­
versity of Michigan, who served as a
Lieutenant Colonel at Camp Custer,
and Dr. A. G. Hejininn, Chief Surgeon
of Mercy Hospital, Animosa. Iowa."
MAKE IT FlITY-FIFTY.

A well known labor leader advo­
cates tho elimination of strikes and
strong arm tactics in the settlement
of disputes with employers. He re­
marks, justly, that the public is tir­
ed of them, and that when an organ­
ization gets in Dutch with the peo­
ple it is in a bad way.
The laborer is worthy of a just
hire—no more, and no less.
The brain that directs is worthy of
a just compensation—no more, and
no less.
Neither side has a right to assume
a "dog In the manger" attitude, nor
have they the right to rob the buy­
ing public to fatten themselves.
Th# only effective remedy for this
condition of affairs lies in the hands
of congress and the government.
There are too many swollen In­
comes in this country. This condi­
Ition is made possible by combina­
Itions in restraint of trade and by
1profiteering in the form of extrava
gant price boosting.
These matters should be regulated
by la*, and the penalty for violations
should not be in the form of fines.
The guilty should be seat to jail.
And in order that punishment may
be swift and sure, the public official
who fails to prosecute should him­
self be sent to jail for shirking his
sworn duty.
•
These may seem like harsh meas­
ures, but they are the only ones that
*lllj&gt;revall.
Labor leaders will continue to or­
der strikes as long as employers con­
tinue to gouge the public and put all
of the spoils in their own pocket.
Eliminate gouging and strike a,fif­
ty-fifty basis of settlement and strik­
es will be a thing of the past

The Butt of the
Jokers'

=

By ANNE WHITFIELD
HiiiiiiiiiiiiiriiiiKiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiin

Harold Straker »eezned naturally
cut out fur a butt from bis earliest
days. Boys In the village school found
that be could be sent for a pint oi
.pigeon's milk or given impossible er­
rands on April Fool's day. He raniup “Mr. Fish" at the state hatcheries
and got New York on long distance fot
“Mr. Lyons," to find It was the wo.
Only one person seemed to have
faith In hila. That was Zoe Graves.
“Harold, 1 do wish you didn’t bite
so ofteii," «he said when they were
about fourteen. “You’re such a nice
boy, Harold, nnd It's Just a shame, the
way you mist everybody."
But Harold went on biting, even
after he had entered the local office
of the National Oil company, which
meant, in a way, an assured future
even though he was only getting
twenty dollars a week.
Some of the boys were Jealous ol
Harold—notably Percy Spender, who

times when Zoe lost patleuee with
Haruld.
“Harold, cifn’t you see that they’re
tormenting you?" she asked earnestly.
“You believe everything—everything!"
“But when they said Jim Barton's
child was dying, some one had to ride
for the doctor,” pleaded Harold.
“And how about Miss Foraker?" de­
manded Zoe. “Why did you go to the
drug store on that Impossible errand?"
“But Percy said she must have that
salve immediately, Zoe."
“Yes. but what salve? Tulip salve.
Two-llp salve, for an old maid! Oh.
Harold, you’re hopeless, I’m afraid!"
said Zoe mournfully.
After that Harold knew that she
saw more of Percy than she had done
before. Even a devoted girl gets an­
noyed at a-butt sometimes.
Harold was planning a visit to New
York—his first—for which he had
saved up fifty dollars. It was his
week's holiday. The day before he
left Spender carne to him.
“Of course you intend to pay your
respects to Mr. Cottoner," he said.
“Mr. Cottoner?" gasped Harold,
“Why, he wouldn't see me!"
Tie'll be extremely angry If he
learns you've been In Xgw York with­
out seeing him," said Percy. “Don't
you see, Harold, what a chance it is
to get him to make Spoonville the
northern state center for oil distribu­
tion? He expects the local men to'
come and talk things over with him.
Why, I’ve drafted a letter, for you to
announce your visit 1"
Harold read the typescript. It was
a blatant announcement to Mr. Cot­
toner, the octogenarian head of the
company, that he, Harold Straker, In­
tended to pay a visit to New York for
the purpose of discussing local affairs,
and would call on him nt his country
home* at Millwell Hills at a certain
hour on the following Tuesday morn­
ing"
“Are you sure he'll want to see
meF gasped Harold.
“Your Job won't be worth a week’s
purchase If you don’t see him,”
answered Percy.
Harold departed, having sent off the
letter. Percy and the boys In the of­
fice saw him off at the station, and
went back, chuckling. Harold regis­
tered at a small hotel to which he
had been recommended, and went out
to Mr. Cottoner’s country home the
following day.
He was so dazed that he hardly
knew what happened until he found
himself confronting the aged financier,
who wai sitting in a pillowed chair in
his living-room.
The old man scrutinised him. "Sit
down! Sit down!" he said testily.
“Now what’s this mad scheme of
yours for making Spoonville the north­
ern distribution center?"
Harold was aroused. It Lad been
his own pet scheme, and tho subject
of ridicule In the office. Now he had
his chance at last. Forgetting his
fears, he poured forth his views: how
Spoonville was linked up with so many
neighboring cities by trolley and rail­
road; but’a short pipe line branch—
he drew a diagram on Cottoner’s im­
maculate blotting pad—would connect
up with the southern reservoir. All the
while Cottoner watched his face with
growing eagerness. When Harold had
ended he burst out:

A Voice From the Methodist Episco­

Theodore Roosevelt said "Even
men who are not professedly relig­
ious must, if they are frank, admit
that no community permanently pros­
pers, either morally or materially,
unless the church Is a real and vital
element in the community life.” The
right way to begin to walk in the
right way is to begin right away.

IMPLEMENTS

first for my old father, who wks s
regular tyrant, and then for Jim Eufield.
“Why, I couldn’t^call my »ni my
own so lung as that man was in the
house. It was cooking and cleaning,
and darning his socks—be was as
belBtos as a baby, for all htoviclousneK*—aud criflU words all the time.
And then he went und left me.”
“You |&gt;oor thing," said her visitor.
“But that’s what, we women have to
put ap with."
“He left me," sobbed Mrs. Enfield,
“and that pnur child there"—she
pointed to her daughter Gladys, agdd
. fifteen—“and wrote a letter saying* he
was tired of my tongue-iashing, and
was never tinning back. Me that had
slaved for him! *Mv that couldn’t,
call my soul my own wbdM he was in
the house!"
.
'
“I suppose there’s no danger of his
ever coming back after all these
months, Is ’JiereT* asked the visitor.
Mrs. Enfield's voice rose into a
shrill scream. “Come back? Well.
I’d just like to see him try it!" she
answered. “I’d give him a tongue­
lashing. as he had the impudence to
call 1L I’d let him know whether he
could treat us that way or not, go­
ing off and abandoning us. and leav­
ing me to work for our living."
“Suppose be came back rich?*’ sug­
gested the other.
“Rich? Jim Enfield rich? That
man couldn’t save a penny even if he
was man enough to get a job! But
if it was to happen, I’d throw his
money in his face. Never shall Jim
Enfield set foot inside my doors again,
rich or poor!”
“That’s the way to talk, ma." said
Gladys. "We’re better off without a
great hulking man to support”
“You hold your tongue, /.lad,'
swered her mother shandy, ’Tt’s
quite true what you say, but It ain't
for you to abuse your father."
Gladys tossed her head.
“Anyway, when I ace what he’s
done to you. mu, capturing your young
love and then wrecking It, It makes
me feel sore," she answered.
In spite of her attitude. Jane En­
field knew that there were times when
she missed the presence of a man In
the house. As a husband. Jim En­
field had been beneath contempt, but
as a man he had his virtues. He
could drive in nails and hummer
things; be could fix taps and do odd
Jobs.
But Jim Enfield should never enter
her home again. ’ “Not if he crawled
in dying on his bended knees, Gladys,”
she said. “I’m just living for the day
when be comes back. Tongue-lashing?
Huh F
A few days later, when Mrs. En­
field was preparing supper, Gladys
rushed in, wild with excitement.
“What d’you think, ma?" she asked.
“Father’.*’ been seen in town!"
“Huh I” said Jane Enfield. "Let
him try to come here, that’s all! Glad,
if he tries to force his way in. you
run for the policeman. And I’ll—"
she looked about her and snatched up
a rolling-pin. “I guess I’m woman
enough to hand him what he de­
serves," she said.
\
.
Suddenly rather uncertain footsteps
were heard outside. They looked at
one another and shivered. And then
there came a Upping at the kitchen
door. After a few moments of hesita­
tion Gladys went and ojtened IL
Jim Enfield came in. He wore a
very shabby suit of clothes, a battered
hat was on the back of his head, and
he glanced rather sheepishly from his
wife to his daughter.
Then be advanced slowly and un­
certainly, glancing askance at the
rolling-pin In Jane Enfield’s hand, and
threw himself Into a chair. *
“Well, here we are again!" he said.
“Had a mighty rough time. Jane, old
girl! Been on the tramp six weeks
since I lost my last Job. and nearly
dead. Guess I’ll have to lay up for
a spell before starting out to look
for a job again.
“Hello, Glad I How’s the scBool
coming along? My. you’re growing
quite a big girl now, ain’t you? Come
and give yqjir daddy a kiss!"
Gladys, advancing as If hypnotized,
suddenly flung her arms around her
father’s neck and imprinted a suc­
cession of fervid kisses on his cheeks.
Tl*en she drew back and looked at her
mother.

With Millionaires
Perhaps you have only $50 or $100 to invest.

Don’t wait until you have more. Make a start to­
ward independence by putting that $50 or $100 in a
Federal First Mortgage Real Estate Serial Gold Bond.

That bond will be just as safe, just as stable, and will
earn the same interest rate as the $50,000 worth of
bonds a wealthy man buys from us.

As a matter of fact every issue we bring out is
bought by men and women in widely varying posi­
tions in life.

There are millionaires and men who labor by the day
who own bonds of the same issue.
The professional man and the mechanic, the wife
and the widow, the bank and the insurance com­
pany, all buy Federal bonds because of their known
safety and stability.

And no man has ever lost a dollar in principal or in­
terest on Federal Bond &amp; Mortgage Company Bonds.

THE SCHOOL CLASS OF 1870.
It was a beautiful autumn day
when twelve out of eighteen met at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Willis
Lathrop Friday, Septcmoer 29, 1922,
who obeyed the Invitation to "Come
as early .is you can, and star as long
as you can.’ Those preanut of the
class were Eugene Scott of Bellevue,
Mrs. Anna Soules Root of Hastings,
Ida Kill Strong, Lucy Hurd Hyde,
BeJle Lathrop Seward of Nashville,
Delilah Ware Webb, Elsie Ware
Tucker, George and Mary Hayman,
L. E. Mudge, Mr. and Mrs. Willis
Lathrop. The
visiting members
were Mrs. Eugene Scott of Bellevue,
Mrs. L. E. Mudge and H. D. Webb.
Fifteen of us sat down to a boun­
tiful two-course dinner, served by
Mrs. Emma Hayman and Mrs. Arthur
Lathyop.
’ The pictures of Mr. and Mrs. Wil­
lis Lathrop and their home were giv­
en as place cards, each finding their
place at the table by their name on
the card.

a good time we all had talking,
laughing and telling about our good
old school days. The meeting was
then called to order by President L.
E. Mudge. No sickness or deaths
had come to the happy number dur­
ing the year, but all were sorry to
hear that Mrs. Ida Strong, an old
schoolmate, had decided to make her
home In California, but she said if
all was well she would meet with us
next year. Regrets were read from
Mina Mudge Holmes and Helen
Mudge Hogle of Detroit and David
Austin of Elsie. Then we all had to
have our pictures taken together, and
it was late in the afternoon when
we said our good-byes, and all hope
to meet together another year.

The State Department. of Public
Safety is pushing the work of free­
ing every school house and motion
picture theatre In Michigan from fire
hazards which might endanger the
lives of occupants. This work was
one of the most Important duties as­
signed the Department by the last
Legislature In the development of
the policy of Governor Groesbeck to
consolidate inspections and similar
activities aa much as possible to re­
duce the number of inspectors sent
out through the State.
District Inspectors and uniformed
men of the State Police are now en­
gaged in the regular fall inspection
of schools and movie theatres. A
representative of the Department
will personally visit every school and
show bouse In the State, having with
him data covering- the 1921 inspec­
tions from which he will make a
comparison to see that all improve­
ments recommended at the tune of
the last inspection have been made
and that unnecessary accumulation
of litter about the building since that
time has been removed.
Reports show most of the schools
and movies were in good condition
at the time of last inspection. There
were, of course, it is explained, some
Instances where the heads of schools
became negligent In the matter of
protecting their pupils from the
dangers of fire and where the mana­
ger of a picture theatre • failed to
comply with the orders of the De­
partment.
Before the schools were opened for
the present term the Nashville school
building was equipped with a steel
outside fire stairway, located at the
rear of the building, which, with the
two ample stairways on the interior
of the building certainly makes the
Nashville schools about as safe from
fire hazards as a two-story building
can be made.
The Inspections of the school
building will have to do with the
in
condition of waste accumulation
_____ ,__ _
the cellars, how the doors are fasten­
ed, construction of stairways, lo­
cation of fire escapes, and the condi­
tion of the electrical alarm equip­
ment and fire fighting equipment. A
great deal of attention is paid to the
fire drills in the schools.
Every
school is required by law to have a
systejp of fire drills and alarms that
meet the requirements. Surprise
drills will be required by the Inspec­
tors in the schools at odd times to
keep the pupils posted on this pre­
vention of accident and possible
death resulting from a fire.
Fire
alarms are now installed in some
schools which are of such construc­
tion that the excuse that the alarm
did not- work cannot be given. An
automatic arrangement causes the
alarm to ring when it is out of or­
der, notifying school attendants of
the need of attention. The State law
with regard to fire drills in school
says.
"It shall be the duty of the State
Fire Marshal and Deputy and Assis­
tant Fire Marshal to require teach­
ers of Public and private schools and
educational institutions to have one
fire drill each month and to keep all
doors and exits unlocked during
school hours, and It shall be the du­
ty of such teachers to comply with
these requirements."
Failure to comply with this sec­
tion of the law is made a misde­
meanor punishable by a fine or im­
prisonment.
In the majority of schools the of­
ficials have been very prompt in
complying with the law as regards
fire prevention and in co-operating
with the Department of Public Safe­
ty in its inspections, and most of the
theatre managers have been equally
interested. The principal fire dan­
ger found iu the school1 inspection
is the accumulation of litter and
rubbish, it is claimed. In the thea­
tres the principal fire prevention
measures carefully watched by the
Department are the number of exits
and their location, fire escapes, and
construction or operating booths in
which the electric picture machines
are located.
A* a result of the 1921 inspection
of movie bouses in Michigan, mana­
gers of 16 houses in one district
were required to erect new’ operating
booths. Two theatres tailed to do
so and were closed. These booths
must be of fireproof construction and
of a particular style that conforms
with the state law.
The law in regard to the preven­
tion of fire in schools, theatres and
all 'other places of public gathering,
says:
"That it shall be unlawful for any
hall, theatre, opera house, church,
schoolhouse or building of any kind
whatsoever in any city or incorpor­
ated village, to be used for the as­
semblage of people unless the same
is provided with ample means for the
safe and speedy egress of the per­
sons therein assembled In case of
alarm.”
Concerning fire escapes, the stat­
ute specifies that any building two
stories or more in height, used for
public gatherings, shall be equiped
with suitable ladders or other means
of fire escape.

, “The Ladies’ Circle will meet at Sis
ter Trask’s on Tuesday afternoon at 2
o’clock. A 'goodly attendance is re­
quested, to consider an Important
church matter,” announced Pastor
Weeks to his Sunday morning congre­
gation.
Comparatively few knew that the
“church matter" mentioned referred to
the difficult task of preventing the
widow Bailey from entering upon her
fifty-first year as organist of HUliiton’s
Baptist church. A naturaly curiosity
therefore, aldbd in assembling *a "good
ly attendance” on the appointed da(p.
The subject soon cunie up for dis­
cussion. Mrs. Trask, president of ths
circle, declared: “Last Sunday’s per­
formance capped the climax. She
played the lust hymn in the wrong
key, and didn’t know It.”
“We've stood It for 25 years,” opined
Mrs. Miller.
•Twenty-five years? Susan Bailey
was church organist before 1 was
born, and I’m forty-two," complacent­
ly admitted Mrs. Trask.
“Aren't we getting away from the
main Issue?” was Mrs. Campbell’s
diplomatic Interference. “We all
agree,” she continued, “that Mrs.
Bailey has outlived her usefulness as
an organist. I move we appoint our
church clerk, Mr. Miller, to acquaint
her with the facts and request her
resignation. I also suggest that he
carry a substantial check with him.**

"A'twood won’t do It All the dis­
agreeable work is put onto him."
“Motion," concluded a member.
The president rapped for order. "You
must let me put the question, Mrs.
Miller."
The motion had a majority vote, the
only exception being Mrs. Miller, who
emphatically asserted: "Atwood won’t
do It."
.
He was spared the ordeal by Mrs.
Bailey leaving the village on a vaca­
tion trip the following day.
"It Is an answer to prayer," he said
to his wife. I hated the job of dis­
missing her. Now we can get a new
organist and have her Installed before
Mrs. Bailey returns. I don’t know
xihere we’ll get another to play just
for glory."
Momentarily, however, the change
Sas made without friction. Miss
ladys Young, a seminary graduate,
was engaged for the next Sunday.
The next morning service began aus­
piciously. A full pholr and a large
congregation were in attendance.
While the people assembled. Miss
Young played an overture, but the
music was so faint It was scarcely
heard.
After the last hymn. Miss Young
sprang from her seat, and faced the
singers with an angry ultimatum.
“That’s the last time I'll pump this
wheezy old box." she declared, pound­
ing the keyboard with her fist. “
paralyzed to the waist"
“Why, what’s the matter?" they
questioned.
“Matter? Just sit down and work
those pedals. You’ll need a ton weight
on each foot And the bellows leaks
something awfuL"
"Mrs. Bailey never seemed to mind
it" said one.
“Then she’s /the one to play. I'm
through."
“Oh, Gladys, you'll have to play this
afternoon—there’s no one else.”
"I refuse to play. And that’s final."
Mr. Miller rode over to Camp Mil­
ford, where Mrs. Bailey was vacation­
lug.
\
. “See, they can't do without me even
for one Sunday," she triumphed.
At two minutes of three, Mrs.
Bailey, with her blond wig askew,
and hat vamplshly tilted over her rigtit
eye, took her glorified seat at the or­
gan. Boldly the music began, and
continued, with more than the usual
Instrumental errors that were chari­
tably Ignored. The service closed with
the national anthem. The ten’or hur­
riedly suggested to Mrs. Bailey that
they sing without accompaniment If
ahe felt nervous about playing with­
out notes.
“Good land! I can play the ‘Star
Spangled Banner1 with my eyes shut I
Go back there and sing.”
The patriotic fervor expressed by
the Indomitable spirit of the aged
organist communicated Itself to the
audience, which joined In the exultant
refrain with a verve and abandon that
was inspiring. "O'er the land of the
free, and the home of the brave,"
readied the finale In a triumphant
peal that set all hearts athrilL
A week later the choir gave Mrs.
Bailey a surprise party that Included

thin place It cracked and In went her

very bad -for poor Madam. Puss.
Mr. Mouse found It hard to run over
the lee. hut he did not stop when be
beard the cracking. He kept right
on and reached the bafck on the other
side and up he went.
He was pretty cold, ns well as
scared, and when he came to a place
where he could run In he did pct wait
to look It over, and as It was his lucky
day he found he was In a house where
there was plenty of food.
Mr. Mouse was soon nibbling away
In the pantry and thinking himself
very fortunate to have found auch a
nice place for his new hbme when a
great disturbance in the kitchen made
him stop and peek through a -rack in
the door. *
There was the very Madam Puss
who hnd duuied him and the cook
making a great fuss over her because
she was so cold and wet.
“Poor Puss," cook was saying. “How
did you get so wet and cold? You shall
have some nice, warm milk and I will
fix a place for you under the stove."
“All that fuss over a Puss," said Mr.
Mouse, "and she will scratch and drink
up the cream, while I never harm any­
one and only eat the crumbs I find
lying About
“But I guess I will stay here until
my family comes back. A well-fed cat
is not dangerous, and if I am careful
not to eat anything but crumbs I am
sure they will never know I am here
and not set a trap for me."
So there he lived, and when the
sun was shining one day away be

It was a long trip around the pond,
for the Ice had melted. but Mr. Mouse
on the way said he did not mind that,
for the longest way round is the short­

“If I had tried to cross that pond
now," said he. “I might have drowned
or some animal might have caught me.
and though crossing the pond was the
shortest In distance, if I had never
reached my old home. It would have
been the longest way for me, and I
think I am a very wise mouse to rea­

Thank You Very Much!
Now and then a new customer tells

us that he came to our bank be­
cause he had heard a friend speak
so well of It.

Doubtless lots of

other new customers come to us for
the same reason, but do not tell us
about it.

The guests were met at the door
by the host and hostess and escort­
ed up stairs to remove their wraps.
The teachers were stationed in the
library and were Introduced to the
members by Mr?. Elisabeth McDorr, Mrs. Lillie Smith and Mra. Belle
rerts.
Those fortunate enough to be
present enjoyed a social hour, while
the guests were arriving, and at the
appointed hour tbe meeting was
called to order by the retiring presi­
dent, Mrs. Lillie Snjlth, who very
graciously introduced the new presi­
dent, Mrs. Belle Everts, who respond­
ed with the address of welcome. Mrs.
Everts was at her best and "gave one
of the finest addresses It has been our
pleasure to hear. She surely made
the teachers welcome and we were
proud of her. She said, "The time
had come when we demanded the
best of teachers. In character. In
training, in disposition and In per­
sonality, to place before the rising
generation, because the boys and girir
looked to their teachers for some­
thing more than Information in read­
ing. writing and arithmetic.
"They are looking for guidance ir.
the way to live.
’ "They are in need of sympathy,
they need encouragement, they need
examples of courtesy, of good morale
and manners. In fact, they need
the Inspiration that comes from thosr
only who are living a worthy life.”
She urged the club members to de
their best to help create public sen
timent in favor of the best possible
work and equipment in the school {
and ended by saying that, "We look
to the teachers of our children, a»
the guides of the destinies of ou'
youth, the moulders of the future
of our nation."
The response to this splendid wel­
come was given by our superintend
ent, Mr. R. E. Chapman, who ver?
cleverly gave^a talk on three objec
tlves to be attained, especially In ou&gt;
school life.
The first attainment is that o'
health, as very little can be accom
plished without it.
The second objective is that o'
worthy home membership.
(Hrl*
and boys should be taught the prop
er ideals of home life as they will
later be the home makers.
Vocational guidance is the thin’
alm mentioned, and endeavors to dr
away with much of the waste tha’
comes froto the "misfits" of the
world. He also Apoke of citizenshir
and the proper use of leisure time.
The next number on the program
was a trio by Mrs. Dora Nelson, Mrs
Leila Lpntz and Mrs. Leia Roe, "Ber

beautiful voices, blending melodious
ly. and after hearty applause gavo as
a second number, "My Shadow”, by
Stevenson. They were accompanied
on the violin by John Wotring.
Mildred Wotring sang the “Norse
Lullaby". She has a wonderful
voice and premises to be one of ou*
most talented singers. She gracious
ly responded with a second number.
“To You", by R. Dekoven. She was
accompanied by Mrs. Leila Lentz.
T'he next number was a readlnr
given by Mrs. Albertina Heckathorn
entitled, "When Simon's Wife's
Mother I-ay Bick With a Fever ’. by
Rodney Palmer. She brought down
the house with her German dialect,
and after hearty applause and much
laughter, gave an encore entitled. "I
Love to Live-in Nashville”.
The violin solo by John Wotring,
entitled “Anlelouse Serenade” was
splendid. Qe is a youth of great

The Eaton county fair was favor­

broken.The new floral hall was great­

a modern structure, of double the
capacity of tbe present one.
The delightfully warm fall weath­
er is much appreciated by farmers,
except that many of them are com­
plaining about the Hessian fly get­
ting into tbe growing wheat. Others,
too, appreciate the delights of the
glorious weather, but the merchants
will generally be glad to have a lit­
tle touch of winter drop in, to stim­
ulate trade.
Lights were out Saturday night
for nearly an hour, oa all the lines
served by the T. G. &amp; E. Co. Re­
pairs are being made at tbe dam' so
no water power is available. Poor
coal was responsible for the clog­
ging of the boilers at the steam
plant and the current had to be cut
off until tbe grates could be cleaned
and new fires built.
The boys of the fire department
are having rather a bard time con­
vincing auto drivers that they must
not park their cars in front of Are
hydrants and alleys, or to blockade
streets so that the department could

in case of fire. Deputies from the
State Department of Public Safety
have issued strict. Instructions that

PROCLAMATION
“The aerlousness of the disaster
In £myrn«, at present shocking the
Christian world, cannot be over­
estimated.
“Over seven hundred thousand
refugees, Including Innocent wo­
men and children are facing Inev­
itable death from starvation and
exhaustion while the unspeakable
Turk continues his Infamous at­
tack.
“Their city reduced to ruins,
ths survivors of these ghastly
tortures and frightful massacres
have been taken under the protect­
ing y*lng of that merciful organiza­
tion, Near East Relief.
“An appalling shortage of food in
that stricken land however, Is
Jeopardizing the relief activities of
these American workers whose ob­
ligations have greatly Increased by
the addition of these starving ref­
ugees to their institutions of hu­
man salvage.

every Christian, to help save these
most recent victims of Turkish
butchery."

"Wizard of the North.1*
“The Wizard of the North" was a
sobriquet bestowed upon Sir Walter
Scott (1771-1832), the author of thg
celebrated “Waverly Novela,” in al­
lusion to the magical Influence of his
works. By several authorities It La
stated that the name “Wizard of th*
North" was given to Sir Walter by
Prof. John Wilson, better kuown by ‘
his pen name of Christopher North, in
1817. Scott and Wilson were intimate
friends and contributors to the cele­
brated Blackwood’s Magazine, in
which it is said that the sobriquet first
appeared.
To Prevent Foot Trouble.
One of the supremely important
points to be remembered in shoe flb« ting Is that the foot must be meas­
ured from the heel to the ball of the
foot, and not to the end of the great
toe. Sleeting the former measure
ruent will bring the ball of the foot
info the widest part of the shoe, where
It belongs. Shoes thus fitted will
usually la? of a longer but a narrower
last than those previously worn, but
will be far more gracefully worn
than a shorter, wider one. This rule
remembered will eliminate a vast deal
of foot misery.

It is impossible to exaggerate the
terrible conditions of ' the Smyrna
emergency, say the cable reports. Ref­

of Anatolia as they did at Smyrna.
More than 75,000 have reached the

Raw .Onion Purifies Air.
Disease germs cannot nourish In the
veins of any person who makes a habit
of eating the humble but invaluable
onion. In remote villages the old cus­
tom still exists of placing a plate full
of1 sliced onion beside the bed or coffin
of any person who has died of an Lnf'tlous disease. Although those wffo
low this practice cannot explain It,
e fact is that the raw onion destroys

The Michigan State Farm Bureau,
the Michigan State Grange and oth­
er farm oranizaUons are urging their
members to vote yes on the proposed
state income tax measure which-will
appear on the ballots in November. !
Such a measure would place on the
tax rolls an enormous wealth in
stocks, bonds and other intangible
property paying practically no state
tax at present and woula thereby re­
lieve the enormous tax burden be­
ing carried by farm and town real
estate, the farm organizations de­
clare.
According to the Farm' Bureau,
five to ten billion dollars in stocks
and bonds and other intangible prop­
erty in Michigan is paying no state
tax. On the other hand five billion
dollars in farm and town estate, less
than half the wealth of the state, has
been carrying the entire annual state
tax of $20,000,000. Hence, farmers
hold that a state Income tax at a fair
and reasonable rate, would greatly
relieve the heavy tax burden carried
almost solely by real estate and
would more justly distribute the tax
burden.

Game wardens and deputies are
getting altogether too darn numer1‘ous, according to a Nashville citizen
who was telling a fish story to a cou­
ple of his Vermontville friends 'the
other day. He was rather proufl ot
his wife’s ability as a fisherwoman
and bragged about her going out ofie

gills (10 above the legal limit) and
he never knew, one of the friends
was a deputy warden_unt.il he finish­
ed the tale. And ever since than hfe
has been pondering whether that
fellow will show up over here with
a warrant for his' wife, or has taken
a charitable view of the matter and
decided that the Nashville man was
stretching the truth a. bit in regard
to the size of the catch.

It was said to be Columbus who

Nashville man who discovered that
a certain pair of Nashville women,
persistent disciples of Isaac Walton,
were in the habit of pulling off shoes
and stockings and wading the raging
Thdraapple in order to get to a cer­
tain sequestered spot on the river
where the fish are more than usually
susceptible to the blandishments of
the wiggly worm, when cast by fem­
inine hands. But they fooled him,
for-tfhen they went down one day to
wade the stream they found their
favorite spot already pccupled, they
decided not to furnish him with a
movie episode, but confined their pis­
catorial efforts to the other side of
the stream.

Wealth Has Its Drawbacks.

For Ladies and Misses

Edwin Thurles was an energetic
young max. with a college education,
who was determined that even the
ownership of a village newspaper
should not deter him from uplifting
the masses to the perception of beuuty.
When he first bought the “Springtown Gazette” he found the usual kind
of local newspaper. There was a page
of dippings.
There was Jhe column of art criti­
cism, there were the reviews ot new
books; and there was the poetry col­
umn.
One morning he found a letter on
his desk signed Aramlntd Jones, en­
closing a spring sonnet. Thurles xe«d
It. It was punk. He hesitated.
"Here, run this In the poetry col­
umn!** he said to the assistant-editorforeman. "We’ve got to encourage
local talent. I suppose.”
Next morning, that being the day of
Issue, the Inhabitants of Springtown
learned that:
“Spring, blooming spring, is with us
once again.
Clothed in her vernal costume of
fair flowers.
My heart fills with alternate Joy and
pain
.
When I consider other, happier
hours.
In which I roamed In’other maidens’
bowers
Heart free, yet dreaming of my des­
tined love,
Love, soul enthralling, deathless,
which devours
Like ravening wolf, or brazen-beaked
dove.”
.
Thurles shuddered. He had not
realized how bad it was. He resolved
not to print any more ofNMlss Jones*
effusions &gt;
That afternoon a little, plaeld, yet
soulful-eyed woman drifted timidly
Into the office of the “Gazette.”
“Good-duy, Madam. What can I
do for you?” asked the proprietor.
"I want to thank you for printing
that poem of mine,” said the visitor
timidly. "My name is Araminta Jones.
You know, Mr. Thurles, I’ve always
felt the divine fire within me, but pub­
lishers are so conservative, and I’ve
never had a chance to appear In print
before. And I’ve brought you a little
ode on .Beauty.”
“Er—quite so, Miss Jones,” said
Thurles.
When she was gone he began to
read:.
•'Beauty, divinity within fby breast,
“Thou spark of all Eternity’s unrest,
"Struck from the anvil of our human
■ hopes,
.
&gt;
“Gate which Into God’s magic garden
. opes.’’
There was a furious rending of the
manuscript. Thurles’ arm fluttered to­
ward the waste-basket.
But, on the same day-qf the follow­
ing week little Ml&lt;*s Jones was in the
office again.
“Oh, Mr. Thurles. I didn’t see my
ode on Beauty in your paper,” she
said timidly.
Thurles looked into the eager face,
and an Immense pity stirred within
him.
"I—er—well, I’ll confess,” he said.
“It was accidentally destroyed”—he
saw the llpe begin to quiver—“in a
Are in the composing room. I’m so
sorry.”
« “Oh, never mind,” said Miss Jones
cheerfully. “I've brought you two
poems, Mr. Thurles, one on Ete/nlty
and one on Childhood."
Next week the Gazette contained
the following:
“Childhood, thou fairest opening of
the flower
l)f human life, when cherubs hour by

One nfgirt as be got out of his bed
he -saw a light shining, and when he
lopked out of the window of his home
he saw under the hushes across the
path 8 long table spread for a feast. *
Around the table sat so many little
men in green and red suits that Grey
could not count them.
“
These little men nil wore red caps,
which they were very careful to make
sure were on their heads, lor every
once In a while Grey noticed that they
would feel to «ee that the red cap was
In place. .
Then out of the house he carefully
crept and was soon on the other side
of the path hiding behind some
bushes, where he could plainly see all
that happened.’

But hls greediness soon got him into
trouble, for he poked his little head
out too far and a Goblin saw him.

He could crack all our nuts, aud to'

us tonight we will not let liirn eat any; I
only crack them for us.”
“Never eat another nut” thought
poor Grey. “Why. I’d rather lose my
bushy tall than suffer, that punish­
ment.”
Then, just as if they knew what he
was thinking, as quick as a wink an­
other Goblin said. “I know a better |

All the Goblins began to shout

rushed, and with a tiny finger and
thumb each one pulled a hair from
his handsome tall, and then with It
held over his head each little fellow
began to hop and Jump, dancing like
wild creatures..

But then something happened, for
In their wild dance they forgot their

Out he ran along the path home,
and as It was not quite daylight be
nestled down Into his bed, trembling
with fear that the Goblins might find
him even there, for he knew that by
that time they must have put their
caps on. which gave them their magic
power.
He gave one look across the patch as
be ran Into his home, but the table
was not there, and when he told all
about It the next &lt;!ny everybody
laughed and his mother told him he
had eaten too much pie for supper,
ihit Grey Squirrel knew It was not a

He does not run o?.t any more at

the second annual health conference
to be held here December 4 to 8,’in­
clusive, under the auspices of the
Michigan Department of Health and
Michigan Public Health association.
Invitations went out this week
from the department, of healtu to
every health worker in Michigan.
Early indications arc that 1000 will
attend the confercr ce.
This year’s plan is similar to that
of the first conference held here
last year.. It is designed as a short
course ot intensive training in pub­
lic health work.
The program will
Include lectures oh the various communicable diseases, rural health
problems, quarantine and the legal
aspects of public health. Child hygiene work under the provisions of
the Sheppard-fowner law, including
the prevention of goitre, wil'. receive
special emphasis.
"Every health officer in Michigan
should avail himself of the opportunity for practical inatraction in the
important and responsible work be is
doing," says Dr. R. M. Olin, state
health commissioner. "Local publie health work is very largely an index to the civic pride of any community, and the health officer is an offlclal whose economic value has been
clearly demonstrated.
Preventing
disease, reducing the number of
deaths, and enforcing sanitary laws
are-ruch obviously worthwhile ac­
tivities, that the Importance of giv­
ing a health officer every opportuni­
ty tor increasing Ms efficiency need
not be emphasised.” Mayors and
village presidents have been request­
ed to send health officers to Lansing
at public expense.
Special outside features are being
arranged for the visiting delegates.
National health authorities, as well
as foremost mon and women of the
state, will, appear on the speaking
program.

Riches From Inventions.
Sir Henry Bessemer, who invented
the steel-making process, was a poor
boy who went to London from'a coun­
try town to seek bls fortune. Cyrua
McCormick, who 'created the renper
and self-binding harvester, died worth
220,000,000. W. L. Bundy was a watch­
maker. He Invented the time dock
which keeps tab on employees in fac­
tories and places of business, and It
made him rich.
Oil From Coal.
Experiments are being conducted
in England to produce oil from coal.
It Is thought that sufficient gasoline
would be provided to take care of do­
mestic demands, and that there would
even be a large quantity available for
export. About one-quarter of the coal
raised each year would be used for
this purpose.

People Everywhere are
Turning to Federal
A most interesting and amazing thing is transpiring among
investors in first mortgage real estate serial gold bonds.
Men and women long counted solid customers of other houses
are now placing their funds in Federal Bonds

So frequently have instances of this come to our attention
that we were moved to investigate the matter with a view to
determining the exact facts
And we find that there is everywhere a very vigorous movement
toward Federal Bonds not only on the part of people just
beginning to accumulate an investment in bonds but also
among people who have hitherto formed the very backbone of
the clientele of other houses

They are discovering for themselves that Federal Bonds are
Better Bonds.
They are finding out in their own way, evidently, that Federal
Bonds do offer a desirability over and above that of the ordi
nary bond.

And they are coming to a full realization of the value of doing
business with the greatest first mortgage bond house in
Michigan.
The American people are not susceptible to sudden whims or
unaccountable stampedes.
They reach their conclusions only after thorough and intelli
gent analysis.

And this trend toward Federal Bonds is in no sense an over
night reversal of their confidence in other bonds and in other
bond houses.
It is rather the climax of a movement that has been growing
steadily and strongly for a long period of years.

The word has gone forth from one to another that Federal
Bonds are Better Bonds.
And this personal and intimate approval, voiced here, there
and everywhere, has given an impetus to our business such
as no amount of effort on our part could possibly have aroused.

He was traveling north. Just
before he got to York he opened the
carriage window, with the result
that he got a piece of grit in his eye.
Ho rubbed it and did all the usual
things, but it still troubled him, and
every now and pgain he had involun­
tarily to wink.
When he got to York be went into
the buffet and asked for a glass dt
milk.
This being served, he gulped
it down, and then ^realizing that
something was wrong,’ he said to the
barmaid. "That wasn’t milk, was it?”
"No, sir, rum and milk,"
"But I asked you for milk.”

never tnuik tie tfver uud any trouble
in getting wnat be wanted, -lie come**
to
Judy, ask* her tor u ki*.&lt; uuu
gets It wiuiuut Lbe least bit of trouble.
JShe always nays •yes’ to whatever he
utus. That's what gets me. Always
ye*! 1 can’t unuemtund ner. But 1
know she’ll be mighty .sorry after she’s
married. He’ll lead her uround like a
puppy, and she 11 have- to be as meek
and docile us she is now. 1 wish she'd
open her eyes and say 'no* once in a
while, so that he'd realize it's not so
easy to get a girl, after all. You know,
u girl’s got to be mighty careful in’
order to preserve her velf-respect.”
So this was what they thought of
her! So tills was what they thought
uf him, her Martin! Bruahlng u tear
off her burning cheek, Judy hastily
left her place of concealment and went
to her room. Once there, she flew to
the mirror and gazed steadfastly into
1L A silly, sentimental little girl
gazed back at her. Anger filled the
heart of the silly little girl.
“Fool I” she snapped, at the image
in the glass. “They're right. You’ve
got to drop that ‘yet' right out of your
vocabulary and use 'no' for the1 rest
of your life. You’ve got to say 'no' to
everything be says! He needs some
real knowledge, and if you don't show
him you're more than he thinks you
are, you'll—you’ll—” And she shook
her fist menacingly at the girl who
looked back at her from the glass.
They were sitting on the piano stool
in the parlor—Judy and Martin. She
had been playing and he had been
singing. He certainly did have a won­
derful voice, thought Judy, but she
neither gavcwcpice to her thoughts, nor
did she forget the proiqjse she bad
made to her reflection in the mirror.
“Judy.” He put bls arm around her
waist. “Are you going to give me just
one for my song?”

He was astonished. This was un­
like Judy.
“Just one?" he repeated.
“No, not one." And she pushed his
ann away and chose a chair.
He followed her and stood behind
her, twisting the little curl that hung
from the beautiful, golden pug on her
head.
“Don’t you like me to play with your
pretty curl?" he asked, in a voice
which she thought was oh, so weak and
unimportant.
"No," she said peremptorily, pinning
the attractive ringlet under with a
hairpin. “Oh dear!” sighed her heart,
“he’s got no sensei He isn’t like a
real lover nt all. But," and she
clenched her fist determinedly, “he'll
learn. Yes, he’ll learn, If J have to
suffer’ for It"
.
For the remainder of the evening
"No" reigned like a king. It was "No"
to this and “No" to that Everything
was “No." When the unfortunate lover
went home that night he bated the man
who had been thoughtless enough to
make “n" and “o" a word of the Eng­
lish language.
But “no” impacted a new kind of
knowledge to bls brain, and*that
knowledge was made use of tbe next
time he visited the girl of his heart.
An Importunate throb of pain shot
through Judy's heart when she opened
the door to her lover a few nights
later. She began -.to feel sorry now.
Perhaps—but she would not take back
what she had started out to accom­
plish. No! He must learn. They
cuuld not afford to be called fools by
all who knew them.
As Judy looked Into his eyes that
night she thought she saw a bit of
sadness in then}, and this bit of sadneiAf almost caused her to relent when
be asked her for “Just one." But she
managed to hold her ground.
' "No,” she answered.
“Do you love me, Judy?" he asked.
“No.” It was bard, but she had suc­
ceeded.
Suddenly he rose to his feet and con­
fronted her pleadingly—oh, su tike an
ardent lover!
“Judy I" be exclaimed passionately.
“Please—oh, please, stop saying ‘no 1’ "
I think I know now why I've made you
so indifferent Pre been too thought­
less al' along. Isn't that so? Judy,
forgive me—I’m sorry for whatever
I’ve done. But you must know I love
you, Judy—youll never know how
He bent down and lifted her in his
arms.
“Judy. I can’t live without you. Will
you marry me?”
“Yes,” she whispered tremulously,
letting a tear fall on his shoulder.
How She Got Even.

A young woman was commissioned
by her father to buy some neckties.
She thought she knew exactly what
he wanted. She was sure she knew
iwbat she wanted him to have, and in
any event she did not need the assist­
ance of the clerk. But the clerk had
a great deal of advice to give, and he
gave It in a flippant, aggressive man­
ner which was most obnoxious to tbe
young woman. Finally she was shown
a line of gorgeoua pnrplea.
“There," said tbe clerk, with an im­
pertinently knowing smile, “I’m sure
he'll like one of those. Alt tbe
you fig men like them "
Tbe girl glanced at them Indiffer­
ently, and then at tba young man as

We are always Interested in fall,
when die new teachers come to Ban­
burg. Bess and I—Bess is my chum—
like them young and pretty and laugh­
lug. We have euudgh of sternness
from what we call the “old guard"—
those who remain In authority, yeay
after year; these teachers are regular
Banburgers. Paul, that's my minister
brother, is always uuxipus for tear the
right persons do not have my disci­
pline in charge. You see poor Paul Is
my only guardian since my mother,
who was bis young stepmother, died.
And I must say that Paul has hud a
hard time of it with the criticism from
his congregation and all that. . 1
couldn't even have my zhai. bobbed
when Bess did—because they thought
it looked hoydenlsh in a member of a
parsonage household. Well, when wesaw the new teacher who was to un­
dertake much of the responsibility of
our minds and morals—Bess and I
grinned, then we sighed. •
“NoL" remarked Bess mildly, “Just
whnt one would call pretty."
“Decidedly," I contributed.
“Why," pleaded May Sales, "will she
wear those mammoth rimmed glasses?
‘Glasses Is glnss^H.* but I fail to see
why one should shriek them.”
“And her hair," went on Bess, “it's
so straight combed back. I really don't
see how Miss Hoit can open her eyes."
' "She’s plain shy. that’s what she is,"
put In the Sales child. “If you ask
me. I’ll nay she has never been out of
her native village—wherever It may
be. When I tried to walk with her
after school the other day she seemed
not unpleasant—just sort of diffident
—and nt the teachers’ meeting, Dad
said, she was afraid to open her
mouth."
“All the better for us,"
. laughed
_
Bess, as they jumped to their feet, and
departed.
Paul came out of his study. “I
would not discuss ray teacher In that
manner, Isabel.” he reproved. “I heard
all you said. It might be better to ex­
tend a kindly hand to a new and per­
haps lonely little teacher."
This was strange from Paul, who
usually mentioned only respect due.
“Have you met Miss Holt?" I asked
him.
■
“Yesterday," he replied, “I had a
few moments’ conversation with her”
Next day the finest looking young
man came to Danberg. He was to be
at our tenuis match tn the afternoon.
I almost wished for the name of the
school that Margaret Holt would not
come In that horrid best brown poplin
of her’s. But she did and sat ter back
under a tree. She kept her eyes, rude­
ly. I thoughL on her book when Pnul
went kindly over to talk to her. The
stranger, who turned out to be an Im­
portant lawyer from the , city, • for­
tunately did not see our teacher at all.
In the evening, Miss Carruth came
down the bridle path on her pony,
“Nick," and Miss Holt enthused so
over him that Miss Carruth was
tickled, and asked Miss Holt if she
could ride. We giggled at the thought
of our teacher up on Nick's back. In
her long prim poplin—but In a jiffy
she was there and off down the road
on a gallop. When she came back
there were only Miss Cnmith, the
stranger, and Bess and myself waiting.
“Will you look at Margaret Holt!"
cried Bess—and I looked. Mercy! She
was different
“That was like old times," she be­
gan. then stopped as if frozen at right
of the lawyer. •
He went forward to assist her to
ailghL Then with R bow he took Miss
Holt's arm, and went walking off at
her side. MIrs Carruth rode home.
“What does It mean?” I asked Bess.
“The shy Miss Holt looks like one who
has lost her disguise, while the stran­
ger and she seem well acquainted."
I was still more mystified when Beas
bad gone, and I sat meditating near
the hedge. Supi&gt;er had not been called
and I was watting. Miss Holt and the
stranger seated themselves on the op­
posite ride of the hedge, and I am hon­
est in saying that I did not mean to
eavesdrop.
“And you thought you could hide
here behind a pair of spectacles?’ the
man asked.
"I did not try to hide,” our teacher’s
voice replied. "I only desired to be—

[“Snow on the Way”
18 LEAP YEAR CON- A
NECTED WITH FEMI- W
NINE PROPOSALS OF
MARRIAGE

English “Illustrated Almanac,"
THE
printed in 1865, is authority for
the statement that the Scottish Par­
liament, about the year 1228, passed a
law in which it was ordained that
“during the reign of her most blessed
majesty, Margaret, each maiden lady,
of both high and low estate, shall have
the Ubertle to speak ye man she likes
during ye lepe year. If he refuses
to take her to bee his wyf, he shall
be mulcted in the sum of one hundred
pounds, or less, as his estate may be,
except and always If he can make it
appear that he is betrothed to another
woman, then he shall be free."
So far as is known this is the first
"official" reference to the reversal of
the privileges of proposal during th*
leap-year, and the idea probably grew
out of the name itself—ths notion be­
ing that during this period women had
the right to “leap" or throw them­
selves at a man's head while It was
considered unmaldenly at other time*.
An early reference to this custom oc­
curs in a work on “Courtship, Lov*
and Marriage" published in 1606 which
states that
mfln
entitled to
benefit of clergy iyho doth in any wise
treat a leap-year proposal with slight
or contumely."

A Great Loyalty
Among Federal Owners
__

It would be well worth your while to sound out the Federal
Bond owners among your friends and acquaintances.

You win find them warmly and sincerely enthusiastic toward
the bonds they have bought and toward the company.

This has been true for years. Federal Bonds have always been
accepted as Better Bonds.

And the Federal Bond &amp; Mortgage Company is regarded
as the model institution of its kind not only by other bond
houses and investment bankers but also by business men
and bond buyers.

The high integrity and conservative acumen with which its
business is conducted has earned the unreserved acclaim of
men of standing in every line of endeavor.
The standards by which it discriminates between the good
issue and the inferior issue are without parallel.
As you can readily recognize there is a difference between a
good loan and a bad loan that usually is patently apparent.
But sometimes a loan offered to us is so good that it falls
short of Federal requirements only a very, very little.

And were we not so firmly committed to the policy of accept­
ing only the very finest loans we, too, might quiet our qualms
and bring forth issues that though not bad still are less than
Federal calibre.
As an actual matter of fact there are daily offered to you
bonds based on mortgages originally offered to Federal and
turned down by us.
There are, in truth, very few of the better class of issues
brought to your attention by other houses that have not at
one time or another been considered by Federal and rejected.

So when you choose Federal Bonds for your funds you
know that you have bought the best bonds that money
can command.
And that is a very satisfying thought.

THE BANKER’S DUTY

glasses of extreme pessimism nor the rose­
colored glasses of extravagant optimism but
through the uncolored, plain lenses of
TRUTH—that is the duty of the banker of

“Business.”
With the knowledge gained from his wide view­
point' he is in a position to offer able counsel and wise
encouragement.

Interested in the advancement of Industry, intent
on enheartening the industrious, we have built a banking
service which is not lacking in encouragement. We in­

“Snow on the Way” i

The flaunting of political moral­
ity in the purchase ot a seat in
the senate, outraging the moral
sensibilities of the voters,
it wouldn’t be so bad, but to be com­
pelled to force a great party to re­
tire a great statesman is as unfor­
tunate as it was unnecessary.
No
political group is above the party,
much as they sometimes think they
are.—Charlotte Republican.

Too Late.
Judge Florence Allen of Cleveland
—Miss Allen is the only woman
judge in the world—said In a recent
after-dinner speech:
"We women are often accused of
under-tipping.
The accusation is
false. Here, though, is a true story.
"A gentle mannered Cleveland
woman, arriving in New York one
day, gave the porter at the station
a dime.
The porter in a fury
threw it on the ground.
"The Cleveland woman picked it
up.
At the same time ahe explain­
ed gently that this was the only coin
she happened to have in her purse,
and in parting with It for a tip she
had condemned herself to walk the
two mile* to her hotel instead of
taking the bus.
"This explanation mollified the
porter.
” ‘In that case, lady,* be Mid, "I’ll
take the tip.*
" 'No, never mind,* said the
Cleveland woman In her gentle way.
'I think Ill take the bus.’ '*

THE PENNIES IN THE BOX
I’m Uncle Sam’s most favored,pet.
I’m hearty and I'm hale,
With nothing In the world to do
But carry 'round the mall,
But one'thing almost breaks my heart
And my nervous system shocks,—
It’s the everlasting pennies
That I'm fishing from the box.
I carry stamps and envelopes
And postal cards and such,
And I should like to sell a few—
'Twould please me very much;
But I can't sell unless they buy.
No matter how he talks.
So I have to keep .on diving
After pennies in the box.
I can stand it in the summer
When the gentle breezes blow.
But it’s "Glory Hallelujah’*
When it’s thirty-two below!
When all your fingers and your toes
Are frozen hard as rocks,
It's anything but funny
Scratching pennies from the box.
And now, sir, confidentially,
I’ll tell you something more;
'A rural carrier, 'way out West,
Forgot himself and swore,
Said he, I'll stand for snowdrifts,
And I'll stand for frozen locks,
But Blast me
the uieaBiy
measly pennies
out
neni.i
, the blagted measlv box
ln lDe DIMlea measly DOX.
When the. roll Is called up yonder
And we all shall gather there,
z
They wouldn’t let the mail man in
If they knew he’d learned to swear.
If you want St. Peter to open the gate
When your rural barrier knocks.
Buy stamps, and don’t be guilty
Of putting pennies in the box.

By JULIA A. ROBINSON

Mr. Gage and hia wife were getting
feeble. “They’re growing old," folks
said of them. Mr. Gage could no longer
work all day on his farm.
Mrs. Gage gnzed about the rooms of
the house where they had always lived.
“We’ve got more .things than we need,
father," she observed.
“We needed ’em once, mother," he
returned.
“But they ain’t good for much now,"
she protested, “they’re kinder In the
way."
■
“Mebby they be, mother, but they've
done good service In their day."
"Look at them chairs. We had ’em
when we first set up housekeeping—do
you remember? But they’re old now.”
“Yea, I remember; nigh onto 50
years, ain't IfT
“Fifty-five, father," she corrected.
"That so? We're gettln* old, but, we
ain’t outgrown each other, If things
have wore out a bit," he chuckled, a
twinkle In his eye.
—'
“Them chairs cost a h?ap o’ money.’’
she went on. “If we’d a put it in the
bank we'd have something to live on
now."
"An* there's the sideboard,” stye con­
tinued. “We paid $10 for that, an’
taln’t a mite o' good to us now."
“But it has been o’ use, mother,” he.
protested.
“An’ all the parlor things," she con­
tinued. “We don’t use 'em. We don't
have no occasion to go into the perlor
now."
,
They settled down to their quiet
evening by the kitchen stove. It was
not often that “mother" worried about
money matters, and she soon forgot.
A week later Mr. and Mrs. Gage
were sitting at their late breakfast.
The table was set with the blue china
they used for the past 55 years, the
pewter castor, the sugar bowl of cu­
rious design, the two-tlned forks.
There came a knock at the back
door. A man walked In. of keen, busi­
nesslike appearance.
"Thought ’twas most likely Td find
you In the kitchen.” he announced.
“It's the best room. In the house, now
ain't It? I always love n kitchen!”
He looked about the room.
“I dp love old things! You’ve got a
lot of ’em. That old blue china, now.
I’m Interested In that. Must be quite
old? Yes, I thought so. And this pew­

Minim lived in LctCeu village. * She
was Indlgn-born, but oue looking at
her would see u modern young woumn

The Indian girl had known the ad­

considering taking up some future pro­
fession when joe came buck upuu the
scene.
Joe had been a companion of 'Min­
na’s childhood, and approved of her
people. But Joe had been away many
years, studying, traveling and work­
ing. And Joe hud returned to the
home of his fathers because Minna’s
memory called him.
Minna grew less interested in a fu­
ture career and more interested in
Joe.
Minna, with a joy in the game,
played with his affection. Tills may
have been a savage Impulse, too, for
openly she delighted in the heartachlngs of her lover. The young
American from New York city came
about this time to LaCeu Rapids, on

One afternoon Joe watched them go.
The rapids were tossing high their
foam and tugging at Joe’s heart came
a great fear. The stranger had been
warned against the rocks of the rapids,
but had laughed carelessly.
Near twilight It hapi»ened. Joe
knew instinctively the meaning of the
crowd assembled on shore. With the
long, free stride of his race he was
soon in the midst of them. He bad

Figures could be seen on the upper
deck, signaling frantically for help.
‘They ventured too near," an old
boatman explained angrily, “and to gn

Tould make It, no one—"
“But an Indian." another Voice
spoke excitedly. 'The Indian always
knows the water; especially this peril­
ous water. If we could only get hold
of Indian Jim and his boat—"
“Jim!"—went up the cry—“Jim
would scale the very rapids.” they said.
The old Indian had slipped up quiet­
ly and his boat was launched and on
its way.
“One boat," walled a woman, “can
carry so few."
Joe leaped to a second boat, and
with a laquh of bravado be looked back.
“I. too." cried Joe, "am Indian!"
He planned doggedly, as he strug­
gled on. sure of hl% power, exulting tn
inherited skill over the waves, how he
would snatch Minna from her lover,

shore. As he neared the sinking boat
he saw. through his suffering, that old

was refusing to be rescued.
T will not go," screamed the Indian
girt, “unless you take him, too.” Her
arm designated the tali American on
deck.
The American was left. Joe could
see him plainly. All the women were

Joe made a last effort.* The men
were ready for him! If Minna loved
this man so that she would die at his
side, then he, Joe, must save him for

Joe turned his ghastly face to the
American.

OUR NEW PUBLIC PARK.
For many years it has been the de­
sire of a number of our citizens,
those who are imbued with a degree
of civic pride and an appreciation of
our beautiful river scenery, to ac­
quire a suitable site and establish a
public park. This desire has at last
been realized and soon Middleville
will have a fine park aud play ground
centrally located and easy cf access.
The initial step was taker when the
village bought the Cook property,
located along the river bank, with
its groves, spring brooks and natural
advantages. Through the efforts of
the Community club upwards of one
hundred citizens, including business
and professional men and students
from the high school, gathered there
on Thursday of last week and syste­
matically set to work clearing up the
seven acres of wild land. They
chopped out the underbrush, dug out
roots, cut down briars, weeds and
foul stuff that had been allowed to
grow and accumulate for years, cut
down dead trees and trimmed the
live orfes. By hard and persistent
work they made quite a transforma­
tion in the place. But this is only
the beginning.
Eventually Com­
munity park will be one of the pret­
tiest spots along the beautiful
Thornapple, a delight to the eye and
a joy forever, and coming genera­
tions Will thqnk the promoters and
founders for this cool resting place
and play grounds for the children.
After the day’s wofk was done at
the park all repaired to the Congre­
gational church basement, where a
fine supper was served by the ladles
to the volunteer workers. It was In­
deed a red letter day in the history
of Middleville. May the good work
go on.—Middleville Sun.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle said at a
dinner in New York, apropos of a
scandal;
. “When a young girl goes wrong,
her mother ia often to be blamed.
So many mothers are worse than
ignorant—they are "foolish.
“I once got a very pretty girl a
stenographer's job. Meeting ,her
mother a few days afterwards, I said:
“ ’Well, how is Minnie getting on?’
"The foolish woman beamed.
" ’Oh, Min’s doing «plendldly,
doctor,’ she said. 'Just think, she
has been working only four days, and
her employer—he’s such a nice old
gentleman—has already taken her
out to lunch twice, and three times
to dinner, and once motoring and’
four times to all-night cabaret dances.’ ”
’-

Such Ignorance.
A lawyer was conducting a case in
court, wherein one of' the witnesses,
a negro, confessed to being engaged
In a crap game withwthe defendant.
Immediately the lawyer said, "Now,
sir, I want you to tell the jury just
how you deal craps.”
“What's dat??” asked the witness,
rolling his eyes.
"Address the jury, sir,” thundered
the lawyer, "and tell them just how
you deal craps.”
"Lemme outa heah!” cried the wit­
ness, exxcitedly. "Next thing Ah
know dis gemmen's gwinter ask me
how Ah drinks a ham sandwich.”
Ready to Die.
Sandy, not feeling well, bad con­
sulted a doctor.
Doctor: "Do you drink, Sandy?"
Sandy: “Yes, sir.”
Doctor: "Well, you must give that
up. D'you smoke?”
Sandy: "Yes, sir."
Doctor: "You ‘ must give that up,
too.”
As Sandy went quickly through the
office door, the doctor exclftmed:
"You have not paid me for-my ad­
vice, Sandy."
“I’m not taking it," replied Sandy.

True Enough.
He: "What would you say if
kissed you?"
She: "I wouldn’t be in position to
speak.”

Griswold’s latest story, a typical
.Griswold bit. The story goes that
Pat had noticed the supply of the

in the cellar was getting low, so he
procured a big bottle, which ho fill­
ed from the jug. leaving it as dry
as a fish. Then he carefully h.’d the
bottle, where he could find it In case
of need. But Biddy •was no block­
head, not exactly, and finding the jug
empty, shrewdly suspected what had
been-going on and searched the
house until she found the hidden
bottle. One day one of Pat’s good
pals died and Pat needed something
in the nature of a consolation for his
sorrow. He thought he knew right
where he had placed the last of the
available supply, but the bottle was
gone—gone! FrantlcaJly he search­
ed every nook and corner of the
bouse. Cupboards, closets, bureau
draws, all to no avail, Biddy mean­
while watching him out of the cor­
ner of her eye. The unavailing
search went on until Pat had accum­
ulated a grouch as big as Ketcham's
majority, and when Biddy finally ask­
ed Pat what he was hunting for he
gruffly grunted "Nuthln’!" And
quick as a flash came Biddy’s re­
sponse: "You’ll find'It down cellar
in the jug, where you left it.” Rush­

Just exactly what he found in it—

Thus early aro you in the scrap;
Through life you’ll have to stay.
But yesterday ydu were to me
A helpless, tiny tad,
A pinkish angel, sent to be
Safeguarded by your dad.
Now here you are in childish strife
With kiddies your own Ige,
Exemplifying earthly life
At every step or stage.
Thus pondering I turned and said:
"Son, who began tills fight?"

But it sticked on too tight!”

A Wonderful Growth
In Goodwill
Even to men so long in the business struggle that they are
callous to its failures and stolid before its, triumphs there
comes a thrill in the thought of the wonderful growth in good­
will towards Federal Bonds.
The bare figures, themselves, which show the vast magnitude
of our annual sales become profoundly impressive when
viewed in contrast with the yearly totals of other Michigan
companies engaged in marketing first mortgage real estate
serial gold bonds.
In one sense the rise of the Federal Bond &amp; Mortgage Com­
pany to a position of commanding eminence in the rrtinds of
Michigan men and women is a dry-as-dust narrative of hard,
conscientious work, day in and day out, month after month,
and year upon year.
In another sense it is as romantic a story as industry has ever
written of an institution whose high-minded conduct of its
business has stirred the pulse and quickened the friendship
of a whole great state.

Nothing like it has ever been known before in the history of
the real estate mortgage bond business in Michigan.
Everywhere you find Federal Bonds the outstanding invest
ment preference.
Everywhere you see concrete and conclusive evidence of
Federal leadership.

Men in every profession and every walk of life have united in
a stirring and dramatic endorsement of those investment
principles of safety and soundness for which Federal has set
the standard.

There seems literally no limit to the demand for these bonds
the world has come to know as Better Bonds.

And that, after all, is no less than natural and logical.
For why should any one invest money in some other bond
when Federal Bonds can be had.
What possible argument is there that could so prevail over
any man’s better judgment as to induce him to forego a
Federal Bond in favor of a less worthy security,

Again we say to you, Federal Bonds are Better Bonds

A traveling salesman on a sleeper,
when he awakened in the morning,
foand under hia berth one black shoe
and one brown one.
Ho called the porter and directed
his attention to tbe error.
The porter scratched his woolly
head in utter bewilderment and mut­
tered: "Now it dot don’t beat ail!

She let in-three gypsies. In thfve dif­
ferent rooms the girls had their for­
tune# told.
Alicia's room was. In the third story
of the lodging house, so Mrs. Browne
allowed her to tafce the gypsy into her
room.
After she had told Alicia mnny
things she said, “Now take me to your
room so 1 can give you luck lu IL"
Mrs. Browne said, “Well, you might
wish me luck, us yuu have used -my
room."
•*
..
“AI1 right, lady;- give me an old
dress and I will."
She was given the dress and luck
was wished.
“Well, Alicia, what did she tell you?"
asked Mrs. Brown, after the gypsies
hud departed.
T can’t tell, I am sworn to secrecy.
My fortune will not come true If I do
not keep it to myself. But this much
you may know—I am-to marry a man
named William," laughed Alicia.
•
Just 'then Thelma came In and ran
up to Alicia’s room. Alicia followed
her.
The girls were conservatory gradu­
ates and played every evening In a
restaurant Thelma threw herself into
a chair and said, Tm so blue!" Then
drew out her purse and showed Alicia
the contents.
"Three cents! That’s all I have or
can have until we’re paid!"
“Well, we are sure of our supper at
the restaurant," answered Alicia.
Alicia was a Southerner, with a won­
derful talent for music; she could play
the piano or violin either. She played
for a stage dancing teacher also, so she
had more money than Thelma, but she
was very lonely..
“I wish I had a sweetheart," she re­
marked to the authoress one day.
The authoress sighed sympathetic­
ally. She, too. was lonely.
Alicia went to pint accompaniments
for a singer one evening, and met an
agreeable^foung man. They liked each
other, and he saw her home. When bp
was leaving her at her door he asked
if he might call.
Alicia gave him permission. Laugh­
ingly she asked, “Is your name Wil­
liam? "

“Oh, nothing,” smiled Alicia.
Ono evening Thelma, who had a
beautiful' voice, was singing “Some­
time.” Alicia played beautiful varia­
tions between the verses. Looking up.
she caught the eye of a young man
whp was thoroughly enjoying the mu­
sic,
।
'
They both smiled.
“I hope his name Is William," she
murmured.
“Whose name Is William?” inquired
Thelma.
“Nqbody’s. dear, that I know," whls
pered Alicia.

That sand makes a good medium la
which to store root vegetables such
as potatoes, carrots', bests, and pars­
nips, is the statement of Mr. E. P.
Lewis, of the Michigan Agricultural
College horticultural department.
■ These vegetables must be kept
cool, fairly inolit. and free from
contact with circulating air, in or­
der to be stored without wilting,
rotting, or starting growth. In the
absence of a suitable storage house,
sand-can be used effectively tor this ’
class of vegetables.
"Sand for this purpose”, should be
clean and free from organic matter.
It is preferable to use fresh sand
each year but if there has been no
rotting the previous winter! the same
sand may bo used again. However,
in case of decay the. sand should be
discarded and fresh material used, or
else It should be. thoroughly steril­
ized with formalin or some other dis­
infectant.
"Only those specimens which are
sound in every way shou^l be used
for storage. Any crack, bruise, ar
puncture provides entrance for bac­
teria and other rot organisms. Most
of these organisms enter through a
wound in the epidermis, and sound
roots greatly lessen the chance of
Infection.
"The most common method Is to
place alternative layers of roots and
sand in boxes on the basement floor.
Or the roots may be placed in a con­
ical pile and covered with a layer of
sand to a depth of eight Inches. The
temperature should'be 38 to 42 de­
grees to prevent growth.' Growth of
roots in storage, either at the crown
or side roots, results in loss of mois­
ture and nutritive elements thus re­
ducing the palatabllity and food val­
ue of the product” •

While members of the Lyons Bap­

church the woodwork surrounding

from an oVer-heated furnace and a

The city of Charlotte, through its
council, has refused the bequest of
the Mra. Marlon C. Palmer property
which was wilixl for the purpose of
a hospital. A condition of the will
was'that in case the bequest were ac­
cepted the hospital should forever
be kept and maintained as such by
the city of Charlotte. The property
had been appraised by the Probate
Court at 311,936.87, minus &lt;1,500
left as legacies. The council deemed
it unadvisable tn accept such an in­
definite responsibility for the people
of Charlotte, and the vote was unan­
imous to reject the gift. A further
condition of the will provided that
the hospital should be known as the
Guy Raymond Palmer Hospital and
should bo for general hospital pur­

Boy Scouts Book Interesting Lecture
for Wednesday, December G.

I advice
what is it worth?
It depends upon the one giving thp advice,
his standing, training and experience.
In investment matters, no one is better
qualified to give advice than your banker.
It is a bank’s business to know what invest­
ments are safe. Every day it comes in con­
tact with investment problems.
,
This bank, through its place artiong success­
ful institutions of its kind, is especially fit­
ted to advise on investments and to suggest
safe selections. It does not recommend and
never has recommended any but the highest
grade securities.
Our advice on investment matters is yours
for the asking whether or not you are con­
templating an investment through us.

CASTLETON GRANGE.
Castleton Grange held a special
meeting at their hall Friday evening.
November 24. tor the nomination of |
officers. C. W. Pennock acted as
Worthy Master. After the business
meeting the following program was
given under the direction of Mrs.
Belle Everts.
Roll call—Responded to by each
member naming a man or woman
prominent In national affairs of our
country.
Banjo solo—Otto Lass, who re­
sponded to an encore.
"American Citizenship" —Francis
Kaiser. This essay was one he had
written in school during the contest
and won second prize. He said the
first alm of an American citizen was
loyalty. Other ideals should be
honor, honesty, patriotism, better
schools, churches, roads and build­
ings. He ended by saying, "Ameri­
cans have more rights and privileges
than any other nationality of people."
“My Idea of a Convenient Barn"—
Ralph Pennock. Mr. pennock being

We used to do a hundred things that
now nobody does,
Wo somehow all unbended like and

From great-g land moth »r In her cha'r
down to the youngest sen.
So give me back Thanksgiving in the
‘ real old country style,
With apples in the cellar and with
doughnuts in a pile,
With nuts to crack and corn to pop
and games to play at night,
And girls and boys a laughin’ in the
flickerin’ fire-light."
Reading—Orville Ward.
"What have we farmers to be
thankful for,that other people have
not"?—Chester Smith. Mr. Smith
thinks the Independence of farmers
is much to be thankful for and he
urged every farmer to belong to the
Farm Bureau, for then and then only
can he get a fair share^of the con­
sumer’s dollar and a Just return for
his labor. For there is no one on
earth who works longer and harder
than the Independent farmer.,
Duet—Ina Hamilton and Marjorie
Lane, which brought a hearty ap­
plause.

CHAPTER I
A Financier Dies.

Gabriel Warden—capitalist railroad
director, owner of mines and timber
land* at twenty a cow-puncher, at
forty-eight one of the predominant
men of the Northwest coast—paced
with quick, uneven steps the great
wicker-furnished living room of bls
home just above Seattle on Puget
sound. Twice within ten minutes he
had used the telephone In the hall to
receive the same reply—that the train
from Vancouver, for which he had In­
quired. had come In'and that the pas­
sengers had left the station.
It was jiot like Gabriel Warden to
show nervousness of any sort; Kondo,
the Japanese doorman, who therefore
Lad found something strange In his
telephoning, watched him through the
portieres which shut off the living
room from the halL
Warden turned suddenly and pressed
the bell to call a senant. Kondo
entered the room; he noticed then
that Warden’s hand, which was still
bolding the watch before him, was
shaking.
•"A young man who may. or may
net, give a name, will ask for me In
a few moments. He will say he called
by appointment Take him at once
to my smoking room, and I will see
him there. I am going to Mrs. War­
den’s room now.”
He went up the stairs. Kondo no­
ticed. still absently holding his watch
in his hand.
Warden controlled his nervousness
before entering his wife’s room. She
talked with him casually for a mo­
ment or so before she even sent away
her maid. When they were alone, she
suddenly saw that he bad come to her
to discuss some serious subject
"Cora." he said, when he had dosed
the door after the maid. “I want your
advice on a business question."
“A business question!" She was
greatly surprised. He was one of
those men who believe all business
matter* should be a kept from their

“And you cannot decide It for yonr- "I had decided it" He looked again
at his watch. “I had quite decided
it; but now— It may lead to some
result which I have suddenly felt'that
I haven’t the right to decide entirely
for myself."
•
Warden’s wife for the first time felt
alarmed.
“You. mean It affects me directly?"
He seized both her hands In bls
and held her before him.

Corboy noticed that the curtains si I
about had been pulled down; he
touched the button and turned on the
light at the top of the car. and then
he sawf that Warden was dead; his
cap was off, and the top of his head
had been smashed by a heavy Mow.
The chauffeur drew back, gasping:
Kondo, behind him on the steps, cried
ont and ran Into the house calling for
help. Two other servants and Mrs.
Warden, who had remained nervously
in her room, ran down. The stranger
who had been waiting, now seen for
the first time by Mrs. Warden, came
out from the smoking room to help
them. He aided In taking the body
from the car and helped to carry it
into the living room and lay It on a
couch; he remained until it was cer­
tain that Warden had been killed and
nothing could be done. When this
had been established and further con­
firmed by the doctor who was called.
Kondo and Mrs. Warden looked
around , for the young man—but he
was no longer there.
The news of the murder brought ex­
tras out upon the streets of Seattle,
Tacoma and Portland nt ten o’clock
that night Seattle, stirred at once at
the murder of one of its most promi­
nent citizens, stirred still further at
the new proof that Warden had been
a power In business and finance; then,
as the second day's dispatches from
the larger cities came in. It stirred a
third time at the realization—for so
men said—that this was the second,
time such a murder had happened.
Warden had been what was called
among men of business and finance
a member of the “Latron crowd”; he
bad been close, at one time, to the
great western capitalist Matthew Latron; the properties in which he had
made hta wealth, and whore direction
and administration had brought him

had t^een closely allied with or even
Included among those known as the
“Latron properties"; and Latron, five
years before, had been murdered. Latron’s murderer had been a man who
called upon him by appointment, and
Warden's murderer, it appeared, had
been equally known to him, or at least
equally recommended. Of this as
much was made as possible in the sug­
gestion that the same agency was be­
hind the two..
The statements of Kondo and Cor­
boy were verified; It was wen
learned at what spot Warden's mur­
derer had left the motor unobserved
by Corboy. Beyond this, no trace was
found of him. and the disappearance
of the young man who had come tn
Warden’s bouse and waited there for
'three quarters of an hour to see him
was also ^complete.

She hesitated. He went on: “Would
you have me afraid to do a thing that
ought to be done, Cora?"
“No." she said; "I would not."
“All right, then. That’s all I had
to know now. The young man Is com­
ing to see me tonight. Cora. Probably
he’s downstairs. I’ll tell you all 1
can after Fve talked with him."
He went directly downstairs; as he
passed through the hall; the telephone
bell rang. Warden himself answered
It Kqndo overheard Warden’s end of
the conversation.
Apparently the
6ther person wished to see Warden at
once. Warden finished. “All right; I’ll
come and get you. Walt for me there."
Then he hung up.
Turning to Kondn, he ordered his
car. Kondo transmitted the order and
brought Warden’s coat and cap; then
Kondo opened the house door for him
and the door of the limousine, which
had been brought under the portecochere. The chauffeur was Patrick
Corboy. a young Irishman who had

breakfast on his day off at bis little
cottage on the shore of Puget sound,
when he was treated to the unusual

in his hand. Connery, meeting him at

found within an order in the hand­

our dear Redeemer lived a short, though 'perfect span. . . .

HOUGH -coming originally from
the same wurre, Anna and Anne
itre very different names. To cull a
girl bearing the pretty apprilanve de­
rived from the Hebrew Chaanacb,
Anna or Anne Indiscriminately is a
gross error. They are separate name#
and should not be used Iniercbungcably.
Annu wjjs first known as the Boman
goddess ot the circling year. Sl»e was
confused later with Anne, the companlow sister of Dido, whose tragic
end is recorded by Virgil In the
"Aeueid." According to Roman tradi­
tion. Anne pursued the faithless
Aeneas tn Italy, after the suicide of
Dido, and there drowned herself in
the river Numirius, where she became
a presiding deity. ’
Tbe Irish have a similar legend to
account for their Anna; the daughter
of the chief of the Firbolg race
downed herself in the river Life, an&lt;
dace the Irish word for river is Am­
inin, tbe two words became, on Eng­
lish tongues, Anna Llffey. and were
supposed to form the unfortunate
lady’s name.
There was also a St. Anna In Byrantluro for whom the Emperor Jus­
tinian built a church in 550. Thus
Anna became a popular name among
Greek damsels, and a daughter of Em­
peror Basil married Vladimir, grand
prince of Muscovy. Another famous
bearer of the name was Anna d'Este
»f Italy, who brought ber title to the
House of Guise.
Like Anne, the talismanic gem of
Anna is the pearl. It promises hergood fortune, many friends, and ex­
treme affability. Wednesday 1# ber

and without any feeling of shock or
fear, Fuller found himself walking
Into Mr. Morton’s office as if hl# mis­

“Oh, how are you. Fuller?" said
Morton, genially.
“All right." he answered, still calm,
“but you’re going to be surprised when
you hear what I came for. Hl pos­

been: when you want a thing go

"Fine motto!" said Morton, heartily.

- It may be ill health, it may be shock
•from the 1&lt;*« of a loved one. it may
be misfortune, which in spite of ut­

It may be Inaptitude or inability, but
whatever the cause, let ua be patient
and considerate before we launch
austere criticism and throw up our
hands in condemnation.
If our hearts are right, and It Is
assumed they are, let7us In a humane
spirit seek to remove the ashes from
the live coals beneath, and fan them
Into a hopeful blaze.
Whatever may be the prevailing
opinion for or agninst such a proced­

heartened and lift them up in u new
world where Hope lives eternally and
Truth and Mercy smile kindly, even

fulness can fan into a glorious flame.
Even in the souls of the most dis­
reputable and hardened sinners there
Is ever burning an Immortal spark of
the heavenly fire hidden somewhere
beneath the slumbering gray ashes,
waiting to be rescued.
And In spite of the frowns of the
world. In spite of courts and prisons,
in spjte of bereavement, of poverty, of
riches, or pomp, pride or envy, this
spbrk survives all through our earthly
existence, down to the final moment
when life Itself despairingly flares up
and goes out. done with Its temporal
house of elay.
.
The question may then come tb us
us. to whether we have played ouf
part as becomes true men and women
and likewise whether the spark In our
nwn souls hits not been hidden by.
the ashes which we, through neglect
of others, have permitted to cover an&lt;l
darken it
It is so easy for sympathies and love
to go blind from dlsnse that unless
we keep them ever burning in our
own hearts they will never blaze suffi­
ciently to warm and cheer the hearts
of others, lost on the way and to&lt;
proud or weak to call for help.

are nearly always high in proportion.
, A study of the fluor plans that ac­
company the exterior view of thia
building will show how the Interior la
arranged for tbe convenience of tbe
owner. At the same time the build­
ing is so constructed that it will keep
the crops protected from the weather
and rats. It is set on a concrete
foundation, with a sturdy frame, nec­
essary because of the pressure the
stored corn exerts against the walls.
On either side of the ten-foot drive­
way that runs through the center of
the building are two corncribs, each
eight feet wide.
The walls of tbe
erlbs are made of crib siding, which
admits plenty of ventilation, which
corn needs to mature and to keep It
in the best of condition, and at the
same time keeps out the rain.
In tbe center of the building there
is a grain dump, by which the corn
may be emptied Into the endless belt
carrier that takes the com jup to th®
cupola and spouts it to either one of
the four cribs through the swiveled
spout. This elevator Is operated by
a -gas engine, or electric motor.
In the same manner the small
grains are elevated to the blns that
are on the second floor over the drive-*
way. These blns are constructed of
matched lumber And have tight floors.
The additional feature of this build­
ing is the feed grinding and storage
rooms at one side. On the first-floor
is the grinding room, which has bins
connected with those on the second
floor. The grain flows by gravity to
the first-floor blns where is located
the grinding machinery. An overhead
carrier track connects this room with
the bam or hog house nearby, so that

DAIRY­
POINTS
BUTTER RATED FOR QUALITY

Producers Lose Much Money Because*
■ of Imperfect Conditions and
,
Methods In Making.
(Prepared by the United SUUee PepertraenC
ot Agriculture.)
,

If you are a producer or manu£ac-«
turer of butter, were you disappointed
In-the price you received for that last
shipment? Quality Is the chief factor
In determining butter prices, and ac­
cording to United States Department
of Agriculture circular 230, just issued,
even small defects In qnailty may re­
sult in the loss of a sale or a cut tn
price.
Several million dollars annually ere
lost to producers and manufacturers
because of Imperfect conditions and
methods In production, manufacture
and marketing of dairy products, the
circular states. During 1920 the mar­
ginal difference In tbe prices of high
and low quality butter amounted at
times to as much as 15 cents between
87 score nnd 92 Score. Lack oi
proper attention or care in the cream­
ery in grading the cream, or in churn­
ing, working, salting or packing ths
butter are stated to be mainly respon­
sible for this condition.
The circular enumerates and de­
scribes the various factors such, as
flavor, body, color, salt and package
that influence price. These factors
j|rc given specific ratings by local nnd
federal butter Inspectors, and receiv­
ers, in determining the final score of
the product, and the ratings are gov­
erned by the absence or presence ot
certain defects described in the circu­
lar.
It Is stated that there has never
before been a time In the history of
American butter making when It paid
so well to produce high-quality butter
as during recent years. But to secure

SCHOOL DAUS

an active demand and the largest net
return not only high quality and uni­
formity of the product are necessary,
but u knowledge of market require
ments and good marketing methods
are required.
Circular 236, entitled “Defects In the
Quality of Butter," has been prepared
so that producers and manufacturers
may. know precisely how butter is
rated for quality in the markets, and
how the-defects which lower the price
may lie obviated. Copies of the circu­
lar can be obtained free upon re­
quest to the United States Department
of Agriculture, Washington, D. C,
half cupful of good fruit juice, one-hall
cupful of New Orleans molasses.
Wash and dry the raisins and cur­
rants and slice the citron very fine.
Mix the fruit and flour well. Cream
the butter and the sugar a little at a
time, beat the egg yolks and add them
to the creamed butter, then the beaten
whites. Add the molasses, buttermilk
and flour mixed with the spices and
soda. Beat well; now add the frulL

Influence of Breed
The breed of a dairy cow has
a distinct Influence on the water
content of her milk. For ex­
ample. Jersey milk as an aver­
age contains 14.7 j»er cent total
solids, of which 5X) per cent is
fat, while Holstein milk con­
tains, on the average, 11.85 per
cent total solids, of which 3.42
per cent is butterfat. In other
words every 100 pounds of Jer­
sey milk contains 85 pounds of
water, while every 100 pounds
of Holstein milk contains 88
pounds of water. Tbe differ­
ence in feeding value amounts
to 2.61 pounds of milk solids per
100 pounds of milk In favor of
Jersey milk.

One of tbe first questions most
farmers will ask about this building
Is, “How much will It cost?’ The cost
of any building will vary in different
sections because of labor conditions,
distance from sources of building ma­
terial supplies and for other reasons.
The best plan when considering the
erection of a new building is to con­
sult the local building contractor or
building material dealer. These men
can give accurate estimates of cost
and can provide the owner with plans
of the building to be erected.
However, a well-constructed build­

interest rates on the Investment

and the (Jpcrease In the cost of the

When all the Fairies were dressed
in their gold and white cups the Queen
stood up in her. chariot and kpoke th
one of her Fairies:- “Bring to me.’’
she said, “a sip of dew In a golden

Buttercup looked to see what was to
happen, and to her astonishment tlie

drank theuew and said: “Of all the

brightest gold, and we will use It’for.
our Fairy cup every time we give a
feast."
Little Buttercup trembled with de­
light until she thought she would fall
from her stem, but the Queen did not
seem to notice it. and told "the Fairy to
put Buttercup back in her place.
"Oh,. please, dear Queen, can we
have a party In the del! tonight?’* cried
all the Fairies. “The gold cup will
look s*&gt; pretty on the moss-covered ta­
bles. and with our gold-and-whltc bats
it Is sure to tie the prettiest party ever
seen.’’
^The Queen, always ready to grant
any request that the Fairies make,
gave her consent and over* the fields
flew the fairies like so many little
bees gathering the buttercups and 1111iitg the Queen's chariot until she could
hardly find a place to sit.

Then off they drove to the dell and
held the party, while all tbe goblins
peeping from behind their rocks were
so spellbound by the beauty of the
scene they forgot to play tricks.
When the party was over the but­

to the fields and when the sun looked

for If she had worn a rutile she would
never have been chosen for a cup at
the Fairies' party, and Daisy, knowing
that she was happy, nodded a pleasant
good morning nnd never said a word

before.

CHAPTER II—Continued.

Th® remaining man. carrying his
own grips, set them down in the gate
•nd felt in his pocket fo.r hla transpor:
tatlon.
Thin person had appeared suddenly
after the line of four had formed In
front of old Sammy at the gate; he
had taken hla place with them only
after scrutiny of them. His ticket
was a atrip which originally had held,
coupons for the Pacific voyage, and
some indefinite journey In Asia be­
fore; unlike the Englishman's—and
hla baggage did not bear the pasters
of the Nippon Yu sen Kaisha—the
ticket was close to the date when It
would hare expired. It bore upon the
line where the purchaser signed, the
name “Philip D. Eaton” in plain, vig­
orous characters without shading or
flourish.
As a sudden eddy of the gale about
the shed blew the ticket from old
Sammy’s cold fingers, the^young man
stooped to recover It The wind blew
off his cloth cap as he did so, and as
he bent and straightened before old
Sammy, the old man suddenly gasped;
and while the traveler pulled on his
cap, recovered his^tlcket and hurried
down the platform to the train, the
gateman stood staring after him as
though trying to recall who the man
presenting himself us Philip D. Eaton

_ Connery stepped beside the old man.
‘ “Who Is It, Sammy?" he demanded.
“Who?” Sammy repeated. His eyes
were still fixed on the recreating fig­
ure. "Who? ? don’t know."
The gateman mumbletf repeating
to himself the names of the famous,
the great, th® notorious. In his effort
to fit one to the man who had Just
passed. No one else belated and
bound fnr the Eastern Express was In
sight. The president's order to the
conductor and to the dispatcher sim­
ply had directed that Number Five
would run one hour late; it must leave
In five minutes; and Connery, guided
by the impression the man last
through the gate had made upon him
and old Sammy both, had no doubt
that the man for whom the train had
been held was now on board.
Connery went out to the train. The
passengers who had been parading the
platform had got aboard; the last five
to arrive also hnd disappeared into the
Pullmans, and their luggage had been
thrown Into the baggage car. Connery
jumped aboard.
The three who had passed the gate
first—the girl, the man with the
glasses and the young man In the cut­
away—it bad now become clear were
one party. They had had reservations
made, apparently, in the name ef
Dorne; the girl’s address to the spec­
tacled man made plain that be was
her father; her name, apparently, was
Harslet; the young man In the cut­
away coat was “Don" to her and
“Avery" tp her father, pis relation,
while Intimate enough to permit him
to address the girl ps “Harry." was
unfailingly respectful to Mr. Dorne;
and against them both Dorne won his
way; his daughter was to occupy the
drawing room; he and Avery were to
have sections in the open car.
“You have Sections One and Three,
sir," the Pulman conductor told him.
And Dome directed the porter to put
Avery’s luggage In Section One, his
own In Section Three.
The Englishman was sent to Section
Four tn Car Three—the next car for­
ward—and departed at the heels of
the porter. Connery watched more
closely, as now It came the turn of the
young man whose ticket bore the
name of Eaton. Eaton had no reser­
vation in the sleepers; he appeared,
however, to have some preference as
to where he slept
“Give me a Three, If you have one,"
he requested of* the Pullman conduc­
tor. His voice, Connery noted, was
well modulated, rather deep, distinct­
ly pleasant At sound of It, Dorne,
who with his daughter’s help was set­
tling himself In his section, turned and
looked that way and said something
In a low tone to the girl. Harriet
Dome also looked, and with her eyes
on Eaton. Connery saw her reply in­
audibly. rapidly and st some length.

He stood for a few moments In enn-Versatlon with the dining-car conduc­
tor; then he retraced bls way through
the train. He again passed Eator,
slowing so that the young man could
speak to Him if he wished, and even
halting an Instant to exchange a word
with the Englishman; but Eaton al­
lowed him to pass on without speak­
ing to blm. Connery’s step quickened
as he entered the next car on his way
back to the smoking compartment of
the observation car, where he expect­
ed to compare sheets with the Pull­
man. conductor before taking up the
tickets. As he entered this car, how­
ever. Avery stopped him.
“Mr. Dome would like to speak to
you." Avery said.
Connery stopped -beside the section,

ductor.

with his daughter. Dome looked up
at him.
“You are the train conductor?" he
asked.
“Yes. sir," Connery replied.
Dome fumbled In his inner pocket
and brought out a cnrd-c-ase, which
he opened, and produced a cant Con­
nery, glancing at the card while the
other still held. It, saw that It. was
President Jarvis’ visiting curd, with
the president’s name In engraved
block letters; across |ts top was writ­
ten briefly in Jarvis’ familiar hand,
“This is ,the passenger”; and below,
it was signed with the same scrawl&lt;
of initials which bad been on the note
Connery had received That morning—
“H. R. J."
&lt;
Connery’s hand shook as. while try­
ing to recover himself, he took the
card and looked at it more closely,
and he felt within him the sinking
sensation which follows an escape
from danger. He saw that his too
ready and too assured assumption
that Eaton was the man to whom Jar­
vis' note had referred, had almost led
him* Into the sort of mistake which Is
unpardonable in a "trusted" man; he
had come within an ace, be reaUzed,
of speaking to Eaton and so betray­
ing the presence on the train of a
traveler whose journey his superiors
were trying to keep secret.
"You need, of course, hold the train
no longer,". Dome said to Connery.
“Yes, sir; I received word from Mr.
Jarvis about you, Mr. Dome. I shall
follow his Instructions fully."
As he went forward again after the
train was under way, Connery tried
to recollect bow it was that he had
been led Into such a mistake, and de­
fending himself, he laid It all to old
Sammy. But old Sammy was .not
often mistaken in his identifications.
If Eaton was not the person for whom
the, train was held, might he be some­
one else of importance? Now as he
studied Eaton, he could not imagine
what had made him accept this pas­
senger as a person of great position.
It was only when he passed Eaton a
third time, half an hour later, when
the train had long left Seattle, that
the half-shaped hazards and guesses
about the passenger suddenly sprang
Into form. Allowing for a change of
clothes and a different way of brush­
ing bls hair, Eaton was exactly the
man whom Warden had expected at
bls house and who had come there
and watted while Warden, away In his
car. was killed.

HELPS
PLAN FOR “CITY BEAUTIFUL”
Indianapolis Has Society to Encourap®
. the Extension of Front and Rear
Flower Garden.

A Congregations list pastor of New
England has written a book in which
cli!Una that art and religion are es­
sentially one an&lt;^ that for this reason
he would have religious life sur­
rounded by a beautiful environment.
He has in mind especially church ar­
chitecture. and decoration, and the
making of worship a beautiful thing,
but he would undoubtedly be an en­
thusiastic upholder of the plan of the
new Indianapolis Flower society for
beautifying the front and rear yards
of dty homes.
•
With tlR? beginning that has been
made Indianapolis has many beautiful
districts, but it has the possibilities of
being one of the most beautiful cities
la the country—enthusiastic residents
say of the world—If all citizens will
help to achieve IL This flower so­
ciety’s work Is not one that involves
large expenditures, either to Individ­
uals or to the organization itself. Its
purpose is to be advisory, to supply
seeds when necessary, to give instruc­
tions as to the methods of cultivation
of different plants and In general to
arouse* interest in the undertaking. Its
members have visions of seeing a dty
full of flowep gardens, of vacant lots
covered with a growth of petunias or
nasturtiums or golden glow from seeds
sown In the spring. Instead of the us­
ual crop of weeds. They are even
so hopeful that they look forward to
a time when the occupant of the hum­
blest cottage will feel Inspired to do
his part, along with his neighbors,
through the improvement of bis prem­
ises. Is It an Impossible dream? It
should not be.—Indlanapolls^Star.

that they were going to find a pole at

“They said when they reached that
pole they would turn around and come
back. They imagined that they would
have a little celebration after they
finally reached the pole.
“Their Idea was that perhaps they
would all have a special supper up
there and that they would all look up
at the pole and they would bark while
the people would say:
“ *Most noble Pole, how glad we are

In the midst of so much restlessness
there is Inescapable the impression of
the persistent stirring of an under­
current of radicalism. The feeling Is
almost ns un-American as Is the af­
fliction. but Is none the less convincing
for that reason. For the feeling Is by
reaction to the fact. In such case,
npprehenslveness is a logical sequence,
were It not allayed by certain funda­
mental factors In American life.
From coast to coast and north to
south the United States Is a country
populated by nearly 50 per cent of
families living under their own vine
and fig tree, figuratively speaking. In
short, there are by census showing
nearly 11,000,000 persons who own
their homes In the population of tho
states. The average, taking the coun­
try as a whole. Is 45 per cent of tho
families as domiciled in homes owned
by their heads.
The owned home Is an anchor of
hope always. It Is an Insurance, and
It is reinforced by other millions of
homes not home-owned that are Just
as loyal to the country, the Constitu­
tion and the flag.—Cincinnati Commer­
cial-Tribune.
Planting NUt Tree*. /

One of many beautiful things that
people In this part of the country,
might do, but neglect for want of a lit­
tle foresight. Is the planting of nut­
bearing trees along the highways. Espedally now when we are spending
millions of dollars on the roadbed I
want to emphasize this Idea for the
comfort and pleasure of future gener­
ations. I have not got over my boyish
delight in gathering and eating nuts.
The walnut Is native throughout
tills region and Is a long-lived, state­
ly tree, valuable for Its beautiful wood,

to buy the scattered few available for
gunstocks. It is almost no trouble to
grow, so every community should have
miles of walnuts on the roads where
everybody could help himself.—Corn*

’ Civics Without Textbooks.
Our larger cities have lately insti­
tuted a departure In the taching of
civics In elementary schools. Text­
books are discarded and the outcome
of several months’ test Is most en­
couraging. New York has Instructed
the children In 21 subjects, from the

a pkt form which be presently mounted and then went
to work.
Walking toward him we announced our approach by
the inquiry, "I suppose that step you are standing on
is insulated ?”
•
"Yeg,"' he replied.
“With glass knobs?" we obterved,—by way of mak­
ing conversation to glean a morsel of electrical in­
formation.
“Stand hack a little," he said, "the wind might sweep
the lamp over to you. and you're on the ground."
"I suppose you're perfectly safe on your platform?**
was our next feeler.
"Safe as long as I use but one hand at a time,” he
said. "By using two hands I can easily make a abort
circuit through my body."
"That would kill you of course?" we added know­
ingly.
“Maybe not," he replied.
"It isn’t the instant shock that kills but the continued
shock. The current cooks the blood cells. If enough
of the blood cells become so cooked that the other cells
cannot cure them, you die. But if most of your blood
cells are left normal you will live. I short-circuited a

current that was three times the voltage here. It
so great that instead of bolding tne it repelled me: it
threw me to the ground. I was uncon»cious tnauy hours.
But'as you see. I was not killed. The burning process
did not last long enough.”
“Does this street meet with Jenifer down there?" he
said, pointing to an arc a block below. "1 am not much
acquainted about this district I am a student Good
night,” be said, and he was off to lighten up the dark
highways of men.
We didn’t leam much about electricity in that curb
talk in the midnight hour, but we learned again the
scholar’s duty.
He is a wasteful indent who does not use that which
he knows for the benefit of other men. It is the soldier
scholar who serves, and who justifies the universities of
the world. The man who finds in culture only &gt; source
of self-gratification, who is contented with the mere
possession of culture, who is not impatient to use it,
who is unwilling to take the risk of getting short-cir­
cuited in the currents of life that he might while he
lives do his part to light up the dark avenues oi the
world, ts not living true to the highest purposes of l.te.
He serves a high service who goes about alone, cautious,
but fearless, spreading light in this still dark and troubled
world, and giving it without the applause of tho*e who
profit by it and who never see the good deed done.
,
Along the dark and silent pathway in that midnight
hour that student was putting into practice the highest
preachment in life. Willingness to do some good unseen,
some good that brightens the pathway of others is the
soldier service open to all
IT each of us would mend a lamp or light a lamp,

It is not easy to wear a smile when
troubles hover near, but by continued
effort in the right spirit, it rin be

Many of our annoying perplexities
are of our own making. Consequently
they can be avoided by turning from
them when they first knock at the

abutting the door In their fact^. *
We are inclined to brood over some
fancied wrong until it becomes a
formidable ghostly thing that haunts
our Ufe from day to day. We are
prone to forget that we are rational
beings possessed of spiritusl powers
capable of turning night Into day by
a grain or two of faith, which In our
moments of despondency we frequent­
ly overlook, or cast aside In quest of
a balm of our own.
We art not willing to accept the

Master of Men. simply because we
prefer the shadows of doubt rather
than the glorious sunlight of endur­

and fall in the darkness of our crea­

Human vanity and an exalted idea
of our blood-and-flesh prowess are in
most cases responsible for the sor­

usually beset us.
We make pitiable jobs of our work
but we stubbornly refuse to change
our methods even though they bring

It wns not many years ngo that
dairymen with small herds looked upon
the modern type of dairy barn as a
“frill” that was designed to please the
vanity of the so-called "gentleman
farmer.’’ Purebred animals came In
much the same class.
The advent of cow testing associ­
ations, the investigations of the de­
partments of animal husbandry .of the
state agricultural colleges and the test­
ing of purebred cows under the direc­
tion of the different dairy breed asso­
ciations put these old notions Into the
discard. Now the effect of good barns,
nroner feeding and care is pretty wel&gt;

There is no gainsaying tne fact that
there" are three essentials to success
as a dairy farmer. Flrat, good ani­
mals; second, proper care; and third,
healthful stables to house the herd
during the times of the year when pas­
ture is not available. Even then, a
great many dairymen keep the animals
in their stalls at nlghL and not a few
rarely turn the cows out.
The bousing needs of dairy cows are
fresh air, protection from cold and
drafts, plenty, of light and sunshine,
and clean sanitary quarters. Given
those things the cows will produce the
maximum amount of milk of the best
quality their breeding permits.
These cow needs are' incorporated
In the design of the modern dairy
barn and stables. The buildings them­
selves are well constructed, they are
equipped with ventilating systems that
keep up a constant movement of air.
the foul being replaced by fresh; there
are plenty of windows so located as to
admit the greatest amount of light and
sunshine, and the stables are equipped
With steel stalls and stanchions, con­
crete floors and gutters that are
pitched so that they can be kept clean
and litter carriers and feed trucks that
make it possible for the labor cost to
be kept at the lowest possible point.
Shown in the Illustration Is the ex­
terior of what Is rather an innovation
In dairy barn and stable. As will be
noted only a section of the building Is
of two stories, while the adjoining sta­
ble Is one story. The two-story build­
ing, or barn, has plenty of room on the
second floor to store the roughage the
animals need; there are two large alios
that hold the ensilage, while on the
first floor is space for more than forty
stalls as well as pens for the bull, the
calves and the mothers of the latter. »

FACTS
TICK ERADICATION IS URGED
It Is Only In Sections Where Parasites
Have Been Destroyed That Dairy­
ing Pays WelL
(Prepared by tha b'nltad Rtat»» Darcrtmeat
of Agriculture.)

Wherever the dairy industry has
gained a foothold tn the South there
is strong sentiment In favor of the
complete eradication of the cattle tick,
says the United States Department of
Agriculture; for it Is only in tick-free
areas that the dairy cow can be ex­
pected to return a profit. At the last
session, of the state legislature of Mis-

sisslppl it was tho Influence of the
newly-developed Industry tjiat prevent­
ed the indefinite suspension of the
state-wide tlck-eratjleatlon law. Farm­
ers who depend upon the cow for a
part of their income have grown to be
a power in the state und they demand
that the work be carried to complo
tion.
In two counties of the state the
boards of supervisors decided last fall
to stop tick-eradication work and to
do no more In the future, bnt they
reckoned without the cow owners, who
saw In the reInfestation by ticks the
disappearance of the bi-monthly milk
and cream checks that had been
keeping up their credit at* the stores
even when the cotton crop was a fail­
ure. These .men got together and de­
manded that the boards reverse their
actions, and the boards did so with
Uttle delay.

against it by a few dairy cows. The
fuct that the ticks hud been eradi­
cated made it possible to carry on the
dairy business with profit. Some of
the farmers when they saw that the
cotton crop was to be a failure used
the cotton fields for growing cow feed,
and, when they could raise the money,
bought mare cows from the North. In
a tlcky country they would have been
lost.
A map prepared by the commission­
er of agriculture of Oklahoma shows
that in an area of 43,000 square miles
cleared of ticks there are n &gt;w more
thug 150 creameries and ice cream
factories that have sprung up in the
last three or four years. Such condi­
tions, says the department, are never
found in the domain of the tick.

Why Dairymen Need Silo

known., and is shown in the Increased
returns from the dairy herd.
It was only a few decades ago that
a cow or two, a pig or two and a few
chickens were maintained on the farm
for no other reason than to fit into
the farmer’s Idea that the family must
live off the farm. That was before
this age of specialized farming. Now
the dairy farm, the hog farm and die
chicken farm, or ranch are pretty well
recognized as business institutions,
just as are the grain farms.
To the animal husbandry man, the
dairy farm ranks first. The products
from American cows run into aston­
ishing figures—well over tlw bllllondollar mark. And a business of that
magnitude must be .conducted on a
business basis. If it is to endure.

terior of the two stables. The main,
or barn portion, of the building is 36 i
feet wide and 124 feet long. The sta- i
ble is 86 by 70 feet, and contains 86
stalls. Through the center of both
buildings runs a feed alley. While at
the rear of tl*e stalls are the litter al­
leys. This arrangement turns the
faces of the animals away from the
windows and the light and permits
the sunshine to fall on the gutter of
the litter alley, where It does much to
keep disease germs from multiplying.
A study of the plans of this building
will show Its advantages.
Feeding and milking are (he two big­
gest jobs around a dairy herd. The
placing of the twin silos at the corner
of the building makes them the short­
est distance from the far corners of
the “L“ Shaped structure. Over the
feed alleys as well as the litter alleys
there is a carrier track, which runs to
the feed room between the two silos.
Here the feed Is loaded into the carrier,
'run along the track and distributed In
the mangers. Tills same arrangement
makes the removal of Utter equally
efficient
The buHdlngs shown are of frame
construction, set on a concrete foun­
dation, with a concrete floor In the
stables. While the size of this build­
ing makes it larger than the average
dairyman, or farmer will need, the
width is correct for a stable of any
length required.

Six convincing reasons why
dairymen need silos are given by
A. C. Baer, head of the Dairy
department at Oklahoma A. and
M. college. They nrw: ’
1. Dairy cows need succulent
feed during the dry season and
during the winter.
2. A silo "will preserve feed
crops in the best and most profit­
able form.
3. Silage is cheaper than any
other feed forffcows.
4. A well-filled silo solves
most of the feed problems.
5. A silo affords a dairyman ‘
the best storage room for home- \
grown feed.
6. Dairying is not as profit­
able without a silo as with one.

TO RAISE CALVES “BY HAND”

Ohio Specialists Say Don’t Wean
Youngster Until Five Days Old—
Feed Some Grain.
To raise calves *'by hand," aay spe­
cialists in animal husbandry extension
fur the Ohio State university, don’t
wean the calf until four or five days
old. Then for the next three weeks,
feed it’s mother’s milk from a bucket
at the rate of from eight to twelve
pounds dally. Substitute one pound
of skim milk dally until the calf is re­
ceiving its whole ration of skim milk.
Cracked corn or oats may be placed
in the bucket after the calf hap 'fin­
ished Its milk. Calves ought to have
millf until five or six months old, the
college specialists believe, and they
add that even a longer period of milk
feeding is preferable.

Barley Is Good Dairy Food.
Barley Is about as good a feed for
dairy cows as cornmeal, according to
A. C. Baer, professor nf dairying at

however, as milk cows cannot utilize
barley very well unless It Is ground.

-Thornapple lake will not be de­
serted this winter if the plans of a
lot of Nashville sportsmen carry
through. During the past week the
Nashville Ice Yacht club has been
organized and officers have been
elected, while an active campaign
for membership is being carried on.
R. H. Olin was elected commodore
of the fleet, C. O. Mason is vice
commodore and Geo. C. Deane is sec­
retary-treasurer.
The.
present
membership ls*25, with new mem­
bers coming in every day.
Plans and specifications hare been
secured and work will proceed im­
mediately on the construction of
two 250-foot boats. These boats
will be about 28 feet in length and
will carry a 250-foot spread of can­
vas. Ono of them will bo sloop
rigged, while tho other will be Mar­
coni rigged. The canvas has al­
ready been ordered and it is hoped
to have the two boats ready to slip
on the ice Inside of three weeks.
At a meeting held at the rooms of
the Nashville club Monday night a
committee was appointed to draftv
constitution and by-laws, and to re­
port at a meeting to be called by
Commodore Olin. The Northwestern
rules of sailing will govern the new
club, which is the first one to be or­
ganized in this vicinity. The sport
is a very popular one at Gull lake
and on many other lakes in Michi­
gan, as well as In many other sec­
tions of the North country.
WHO’LL BE POSTMASTER?
Battle Narrows Down to Three Candhlates—McNitt, Surinc and MeDerby. Ladles are Eliminated.

Ralph McNitt, Robert Surlne or J.
Clare McDerby will bo Nashville's
next postmaster, and naturally each
ot them la mightily interested in
knowing who Is to be the lucky man.
Word received from the civil service
commission brought notice to the
three men that they had the highest
standings of the six candidates who
wrote the examination, and the
standings were in order as named
above. The three candidates elimi­
nated from tho contest were Mrs.
Fern Cross, Mrs. Edna Furniss and
C. G. Brumm.
It. is likely that the appointment
will not be made before the first of
the new year, when congress con­
venes again. In the mean time, all
the three candidates are nervously
awaiting the word from Washington,
while the rest of the people are not
worrying so much, being satisfied
that they could get along fairly well
with either of the candidates in
'
charge of the local office. Let the
best man win. and the rest of us will
try to be happy.
The Woman's Literary club met
at tho homo of Mrs. Carl Tuttle on
Tuesday afternoon, Dec. 12.
In
the absence of the president, Mrs.
Lulu Greene, vice president, occu­
pied the chair.
Several matters of
business were disposed of. A col­
lection for Cross Patch Community
Center was taken, amounting to five
dollars and seventy-two cents. Treas­
urer was instructed to mail same
immediately, as it helps to furnish
Christmas gifts for the mountain
children. Eight women were ap­
pointed to receive Red Cross funds
at Townsend’s and Wotring's drug
stores, and at Farmers &amp; Merchants
and State Savings banks on Decem­
ber 19th.
Nashville W. L. C. will take care
of subscriptions In Nashville.
Mrs. R. E. Chapman then took
charge of the program, and called on
Mrs. C. L. Glasgow to give a talk on
"Art in the Home." Mrs. Glasgow re­
minded us that we ill have an aes­
thetic sense and It is our duty to de­
velop it so that we may be able to
decorate our homes so that every­
thing will be in harmony. Good
music in the home is very necessary.
Mrs. Putnam played "I Come to
Thee," by Caro Roma, on the saxaphone, accompanied on the piano by
Mrs. Chas. Betts. They responded
to an encore.
Mrs. Leia Roe gave a paper on
"Art in the Schools."
Drawing is
the only universal language ot the
world and pupils must be taught It
to develop creative imaginations.
Art is the beauty of living. If we
cannot have it in the homes, the state
must supply it in the schools.
Mrs. Carl Tuttle showed a picture
of "The Pot of Basil," by -John
White Alexander, and told the story
written by Keats that prompted the
artist to paint It. Mrs. McNitt
showed a picture of Holman Hunt’s
conception of the same story.
Mrs.
Chapman exhibited a picture, "Mona
Lisa," by a French artist. La Jaconde
Mrs. Betts played two numbers by
Paderewski, Minuet and Melody.
This is the first time we have heard
Mrs. Putnam or Mrs. Betts in our
club meetings, and we enjoyed their
music very much.
Mrs. Frank McDreby gave the
final paper on "Civic Art." The most
beautiful spots are those untouched
by man, but we have built towns and
cities—let us keep them clean. All
can help by keeping their home and
surrounding? neat and in repair, and
children can help by putting scraps
of paper in the fire instead of letting
them be. carried by the four winds
of heaven. A town is known by Its
streets; neatness and order should
be tho keynote.
Our next meeting will be with Mrs.
C. L. Glasgow, Dec. 19th.

�THE CHRISTMAS
PICNIC
HE young people were going to
give a Christmas picnic on the
day after Christmas. Thi«y had all
decided that ’it would be no end of
fun to take their skates and have a
long day of skating, and to have their
dinner out of doors.
.
They felt It‘would be particularly
good for them, too, to get away from
the sweets and holiday food they
would constantly be nibbling at if
they were home. .
Bo on the day- after Christmas they
went on the Christmas picnic nnd skat­
ing party.
They all had so much enthusiasm.
Everyone was going to take part. Ev­
eryone was going
to help and assist
raWwML
and workftS
But when it
time for
dinner everyone
'seemed hungry
_ _
but helpless, and
somehow the cold
seemed to have
glowed in their
cheeks nnd liearts
as they skated,
but to have
numbed them as
the work of the
picnic loomed in
view.
The gay and
debonair
young
man whi called himself the life of the
party and who had come garbed in
knickerbockers and sport sweater was
suddenly quiet. He said he was n&lt;&gt;1
much good at making a fire. Instead
he seemed to admire hlmseif and hithandsome legs and to Ignore the open­
ing of the baskets. To be sure, h&lt;
looked well and his attitude said quite
plainly:
“The man who Invented knlckerbock
ere, without a doubt had good looking
legs himself, and perhaps an enemy
with particularly ugly ones, but he cer­
tainly didn't get the better ot me."
But Jerry, who was always a good
Are builder and upon whom the work
always rested, despite previous pro­
tests that It would not this time, was
the one now who built the fire.
And the reSt of the typical picnic
people did the usual things. There
was the man who talked about build­
ing the fire so as to keep the smoke
from blowing in the faces of every­
one present.
There was the girl who spoke from
time to time in alarmed, sudden* sen­
tences, wondering In turn if the salt,
pepper, bacon, sugar, milk or coffee
pot had been forgotten.
There was the girl who was obvious-’
ly helpless.
There was the girl who kept qsklng
what she could do to help, who would
have received aqy suggestions with
a very bad grace.
And there was Mllly, who really un­
did the packages and cooked the ba­
con and saw that everyone' had enough
to eat.
The man who said most about not
being hungry inquired with more than

Human Nature

Christmas Spirit
By Mary Graham Bonner

(©. 1922.

XI7E WERE full of the Christmas I
* " spirit We were going to be more
kindly, more charitable, more friendly
with the whole world. The Christmas I
spirit had penetrated. We could feel
its warm glow. And so—after a giorlous Christmas in the old homestead— [
we were on our way back to the city
where lately our work had taken us.
; The travel was heavy, of course,
and we found ourselves waiting at
the end of a long line to get into the
dining car. We waited for an hour by
our watches. We were exhausted from
having stood and from annoyance nt
the slowness of others and because we
were very hungry.
Finally the line grew shorter. Soon
our turns would come. But it,seemed
not For those who had gone into the
dining car at last to eat took time
about it even though their absence
made the waiting line a shorter one.
At last we were at the bead of the
line. It had been a long process to
work up to this point and we smiled
at one another.
j “Only a moment now and well be
eating,” we fairly beamed the words.
But again. It seemed not so. For
those at the tables were eating and
eating and eatings They would never
finish, it appeared. When they ap­
proached the end of their meal and we
almost bounded to the nearly-vacant
table we discovered they were taking
their time over their coffee.
"How selfish people are," we said to
each other. “How much they lack the
unselfish Christmas spirit It means
nothing to them! They know there is
a great line waking and they don’t
hurry In the least Why, just think of
the length of time we’ve waited and
there are more to follow us. And yet
those people can be as leisurely as
though they were in their own homes.
It’s outrageous, simply outrageous,
how utterly selfish people are.
And you would think at this time of
the year they'd be a little more
thoughtful."
And to our exhaustion was added
the sorrow we felt In the thoughtless­
ness of human nature.
• And then—the head waiter sum­
moned us to a table. Two persons bad
at last arisen and at last our turns
had actually come!
We sat back and luxuriously perused
the menu. Well, we were hungry. We’d
have a good meal I
And we began to order.
"And I’m just going to take my
time about it, too," I said. “Just be­
cause people stand there and glare at
us, as though we almost had no right
to be eating our meal, isn't going to
mako me hurry.”
“I should say not," said my com­
panion. “We’ll take all thc time In the
world in spite of their ugly looks 1”
It was some time later that we re­
membered the Christmas spirit we had
been so full of before!
“Human nature vs. Christmas spir­
it," we said sadly to each other.

THE FAILING FLASH

HERE was a patterlpg of
ffeet through the hall and a
T
small spot of light approached
the big fireplace., A long and
bulbous stocking was clasped to
a beating heart and an eager
little face was half revealed as
It turned bedward again In the
faint glimmer. Then a sudden
darkness overwhelmed the small
pilgrim, and, as she lost her way
and bumped Into a chair, the
stuffed Christmas stocking fell
to the floor with a bang. The
wail that followed brought
father down stairs in a hurry
and comfort to the lost traveler.
“What is the matter, baby, what
are you dblng here?" said the
rescuer. “The ’lectricity fell
out," was the tearful answer.

O US children there was a myste­
rious charm about old Mr. Uplook.
He used to spend a good deal of his
time in the back part of his shop, turn­
ing bits of mahogany into little boats
and telling us stories while he chipped
and polished. He had u small person
in his throat whom he called Pedro,
and he would make him grunt out an­
swers to our questions in a wonderful
manner. His vest buttons were con­
nected with several insects, and when
we touched them there would come
out now a bee, then a mosquito, and
once in a while a bug that would
snap off our noses. The buzzing of&gt;

drawing upon the fairy resources of

crop up in the near future. What

You will be well repaid for those sacrifices and
denials you will have to make in order to build your
OWN HOME. There will be plenty of time, after
you have'built that HOME, to enjoy those pleasures
on which the thoughtless ones are now wasting their
money.

Yes, we think perhaps it’s safe to
take down the screen doors now.

Lumber prices are very reasonable and we doubt
the wisdom of waiting for reductions. Skilled labor
will probably be more plentiful now than it was a
few months ago. We would like to show you home
plans and help you in making plans for your new
Home.

Well, we really don't know what
we do want for Christmas, but we
notice it's hard for ua to find a

�OFF BUYING A FORD CAR?
1923 Licenses Can be Secured and Used on
Your New Car Now!
Don’t wait until spring to make your purchase of a new Ford Car. Buy now and avoid the big rush in the spring. We have no more
cars for delivery during the spring months than we have during the winter months. If you have a second hand car to trade in, we are
more interested to talk to you now than we will be next spring when we have more orders than we can fill.

We are selling more cars this month than any previous December since we have been in business. We have sold ten (10) new cars
in the past .twelve (12) days, and one of the reasons for this is that you do not have to expend any money for a 1922 license, but can
purchase your 1923 license and certificate of title at once and use the 1923 license on your new car now.
Another reason why you should place your order for a new Ford Car now is the fact that the Ford Motor Company closes down from
December 21st to January 4th for inventory, and this will shorten up our allotment of cars for December and January.

Out of every twelve babies bom in the United States, one is doomed to dl«
from tuberculosis. Death from this disease may come in infancy, to child­
hood. or early maturity, but in every case it cuts life short prematurely and
needlessly.
What babies were bom In your community during 1922 who must die thus?
Is your neighbor's baby among (hem? Is your own child?
Tuberculosis Is the relentless foe of every baby in this country. The In­
fection is everywhere, and only sturdy bodies can resist it? The Michigan
Tuberculosis Association, with its affiliated societies,
uses the proceeds of the annual Christmas seal sale in a
battle to keep babies and children and men and women
strong enough to throw off the effects of tubercular In­
fection. Part of the work is done directly, through visit­
ing nurses, clinics, sanatoria, children’s camps and pre- A
ventoria. Part of it is indirect, through the medium of
health'lectures, exhibits, and the Modem Health Crusade,
dear to the children’s hearts in every school-room where
it is introduced.

battle, as comparative death rates show, yet a struggle
that*will not be ended until no mother need tremble, lest over her baby's

A TTOTHER year ia drawing to a close and is about to be releXX .gated to the past. We hope that it has been one of hap­
piness and prosperity for all. And while we are about it, let us
get into the game—the game of crack the whip, the consumer
being on the whip end and the miller on the handle.

We have in this game of crack-the-whip two different games
or systems, one where the home miller has the handle and the
other where the outside miller is the cracker. In the first game
only three can play—miller, retailer and consumer. In the second
game many can play, and the more there are the harder the swing
and the harder the fall for the consumer-on the whip end. Which
game do you choose? In the last game there are always more
than three, and after the railroads, flour jobbers, grain dealers,
etc-, get through swinging the consumer there is not much left
of him.
.
■

Now we would like fair play. Take a sample of any of our
products and a sample of the highest priced on the market, treat
them simultaneously under the same conditions, using the same
methods in preparing them, the result will prove.to you the merits
or demerits of either product and will show which is the most
economical. We think you will find that our Home Pride Flour,
our Grahams, Cornmeal and . Buckwheat Flour are the equal, if
not superior, to any on the market in quality and the lowest in
price. Can you afford to pay the excess marketing cost? We
think not.

don’t try to fix your sick kidneys,

you have and avoid future danger as

thing banded dowu to Brent from his
parents made- him do ttiiJ*. although
when be was home he often was cross.

about the cosiness of a home nnd had

a home. He had explained to his
mother that such a “home" was beyond
the .incomes of ordinary city people
And that if she wanted 1dm to be as
cosy ns that she’d have to get him the
cosiness of millions.
For it took a millionaire to own a
real "home" in' a city. *

But Brent was coming home for
Christmas aud thnt was happiness for
the parents. Only they did wish Brent
was more like the boy he had prom­
ised to be. There was something so
hard about him. He had told them the
time l&gt;efore of a friend of his who was
getting a divorce from bls wife.
"But my friend Is so honorable,"
Brent had said. "He wants the di­
vorce as he’s bored with his wife,
though still she loves him, but he Is
having her secure the divorce nnd Is
paying all the expenses, for it Is only
fnlr to a divorcee to have the divorce

ed to marry her. He became tired of
her soon after they were engaged. But
it was his high sense of honor which
kept him from telling her—to have a
inan break the engagement would have
been dishonorable.’’
And Brent scorned their opinions.
He regarded them ns old-fashioned.
There was a man Jn a town some
little distance away who wanted to see
Brent's father on business nnd It was

arranged that a meeting should take
place at the man’s house. Brent's
father was going to sell much of the
land, which had become a burden since
Brent had gone away.
And he arranged the meeting so thnt
he would be able,to meet Brent on his
way home for Christmas.
Brent greeted his father with re­
served affection. "So you’ve brought
th* fiddle," Brent’s father exclaimed.
Brent never brought his violin with
him any more because he would be
asked to play by old friends who
didn't realize that music was his busl-

MISSIONARY MEETING.
The M. E. W.F. and W- H. mleKfonary society met Friday after­
noon with Mrs. Albert Lentx.
After a short business meeting the
lesson was given by Mesdames Shill­
ing and Lillie Smith. Mrs. Smith's
topic was "The Mind of the Negro."
She compared the mind of the negro
with the mind of the white man and
proved that one was equal to the
other. She illustrated this by giv­
ing us statistics, showing what the
negro had accomplished as an artist,
writer, inventor, etc. Mrs. Shilling
gave two character sketches, one of
Dr. DeBarry and one of Mrs. Bar­
rett. both negroes, which emphasised
What Mrs. Smith had just told us.
No matter what our prejudices may
be. we must give these two great
souls the honor due them. The
stories were given In a most pleasing
manner.
The treasurer reported a voucher
from the Grand Rapids Deaconess
and Esther Home, amounting to |30
for the canned fruit and vegetables
sent earlier In the fall.

society is &gt;15.
Dainty refreshments were served
by Mrs. Lentz’s group to about for­

The society has a new lot of maps
which will make some housekeepers

to finish. As though he recognized
that now she must wish the conversa­
tion to end, he got up. She rose
stiffly.
“I’ll see you Into your car, If you’re
returning there," he offered.
Neither spoke, as he went with her
Into the next ear; and at the section
where her father sat. Eaton bowed
silently, nodded to Avery, who coldly
returned his nod. and left her. Eaton
went on Into his own ear and sat
down, bis thoughts in mid confusion.
How near he had come to talking
to this girl about himself, even though
he had felt from the first that that
was what she was trying to make him
do! Was he losing his common sense?
Was the self-command on which he
had so counted that he had dared to
take this train deserting him? He
felt that he must not see Harriet
Dome again alone. In Avery he had
recognized, by that instinct which so
strangely divines the personalities one
meets, an enemy from the start;
Dome’s attitude toward him, of
course, was not yet defined; a* for
Harriet Dome—he could not tell
whether she was prepared to be bis
enemy or friend.
Eaton went into tbe men's compart­
ment of bls car. where he sat smok­
ing till after the train was under way
again. Tbe porter looked in upon
him tbere to ask if he wished his berth
made up now; Eston nodded assent,
and fifteen minutes later, dropping
the cold end of his cigar and going
out Into the car. be found the berth
ready for him. A half hour later the
passage of someone through the aisle
and tbe sudden dimming of the crack
of light which showed above the cur­
tains told him that tbe lights in the
car had been turned down. Eaton ।
closed his eyes, but sleep was far
from him.
Presently he began to feel the train
beginning to labor with the Increasing
grade and the deepening snow. It was
nearing tbe mountains, and the weath­
er was getting colder and the storm
more severe. Eaton lifted the curtain
from the window beside him and
leaned on one elbow to look out. The
train was running through a bleak,
white desolation; no light and no sign

of habitation showed anywhere. The
events of the day ran through bls
mind again with sinister suggestion.
He had taken that train for a certain
definite, dangerous purpose which re­
quired bls remaining as obscure and

eyes staring up at the

a time; then it dltuln-

Ished M one by one the passengers
went away to bed. Connery, looking
Into this car, found It empty and the
porter cleaning up; be slowly passed
on forward through the train, stopping
momentarily In the rear Pullman op­
posite the berth of the passenger
whom President Jurvls bad commend­
ed to his care. 'HI* scrutiny of the
car told- him all was correct here; the
even breathing within the berth as­
sured him the passengers slept.
Connery bad been becoming more
certain hour by boor all through the
evening that they were going to have
great difficulty In getting the train
through. Though he knew by Presi­
dent Jarvis* note that the officials of
the road must be watching the prog­
ress of this especial train with par­
ticular interest, be bad received no
train orders from the west for sev­
eral hours. Ills Inquiry at the last
stop had told Jilm the reason for this;
the telegraph wires to tho west had
gone down. To the east communica­
tion was still open, but how long, it
would remain so be eould not guess.
Here in the deep heart of the great
mountain*—they had passed the Idaho
boundary line Into Montana—they
were getting the full effect of the
storm; their progress. Increasingly
slow, was broken by stop* which were
becoming frequent and longer as they
struggled on.
At Fracroft—the station where he
was to exchange the ordinary plow
which so far had sufficed, and couple
on the “rotary" to fight the moun­
tain drifts ahead—Connery swung
himself down from the train, looked
In at the telegraph office and then
went forward to the two giant loco­
motives. on whose sweating, mon­
strous hacks the snow, suddenly vis­
ible in the haze of their lights, melted
as It felt A* they started, be swung
aboard and in the brightly lighted
men's compartment of tbe first Pull­
man checked up his report sheets with
a stub of pencil.
Again they stopped—once more
went on. Conncry. having put bl*
papers into bls pocket, dozed, awoke,
dozed again. The progress of the train
halted again and again; several time*
it backed, charged forward again—
only to stop, back and charge again
and then go on. But this did not dis­
turb Connery. Then something went
wrong.
All at once he found himself, by a
trainman's Instinctive and automatic
action, upon bls feet; tor the shock
had been so slight as barely to be
felt, far too slight certainly to have
awakened any of tbe sleeping passen­
gers In their bert is. He went to the
door of the car, lifted the platform
stop, threw open the door of the ves­
tibule and* hanging himself by one
band to the rail, swung himself out
from the side of tbe car and looked
ahead. He saw the forward one of
the two locomotives wrapped in clouds
of steam, ar.d men -rm-deep In snow
wallowing forward to the rotary still
farther to the front, and the sight con­
formed fully to hl a apprehension that
this halt was -more infportrnt and
likely to last much longer than those
that had gone before.

CHAPTER IV
Are You Hillward?
The bell In tbe washroom at the
end of the car was ringing violently,
and someone was reinforcing his ring
with * stentorian call for “Porter!
Porter!"
Eaton realized that It was very cold
in his berth—also that tbe train,
which was standing still, bad been in
that motionless condition for some
time. He threw up the window cur­
tain as be appreciated that. and. look­
ing out, found that he faced a great
unbroken bank of glistening white
snow as high as tbe top of the car
at this point and rising even higher
ahead. He listened, therefore, while
the Englishman—for the voice calling
to the porter was his—extracted al!
available Information from tbe negro.
“Porter, where are we?"
"Between Fracroft and Simona,
sub."
“Tetr
“Yessub. yltr
“That foolish sdow atlilF
“Yea*uh; and snow some more,

"But haven't wa the plow still

“Oh. yessub; tbe plow's ahald. We
still got it; but that’s all. sub. It
ain’t doin’ much; It’s busted."
"Eb— what r“Tesauh—busted! There was right

bucked right into It. But they was

that rotary like a Belgium shell hit it.
Yeaaub—-pieces of that rotary ewentlally scattered themselves tn four di­
rections besides backwards and for­
ward a. We ain’t done much travelln'
since then."
Eaton no longer paid attention.
"Snowed in and stopped ulnre
four!" Tbe realisation startled biro
with the necessity of taking it Into
account In his plana He jerked him­
self up in bls berth and began pulling
his clothes dm from thehooka; thee.

as abruptly, he Stopped dressing and
sat absorbed in thought. He bad let
bltnself sink back against the pillows,
while te stared, unseelngiy, at tbe
solid bank of snow beside tbe car.
when the door at tbe farther end of
the coach opened and Conductor Con­
nery entered, calling a name.
“Mr. HlBward! Mr. Lawrence Hill­
ward! Telegram for Mr. Hill ward I”
Eaten started at the first call of the
name; be sat up and faced about.
The conductor was opposite Section
Three; Eatnn now wslted tensely and
delayed until the conductor was past;
then putting bis head out of his cur­
tains be hailed as the conductor was
going through the door.
“-What name? Who Is that tele­
gram for?"
“Mr. Lawrence Hillward."
"Oh, thank you; then that’s mine."
Connery held back. “I thought your
name was Eaton."
“It is. Mr. Hillward—Lawrence
HlUward—is an associate of mine who
expected to make this trip with me
but could not. Bo 1 should have tele­
grams or other communicationfl ad­
dressed to him. Is there anything to
sign?"
“No. sir—train delivery."
Eaton drew bls curtains close again
and ripped the envelope open; but be­
fore reading the message he observed
with alarm that bls pajama jacket
had opened across the chest, nnd a
small round scar, such as that left by
a high-powered bullet penetrating,
was exposed. He gasped almost au­
dibly, realizing thia, and clapped bls
hand to his chest and buttoned h's
jacket The message—nine words
without signature—lay before him:
“Thicket knot youngster omniscient
Issue foliage lecture tragic instiga­
tion."
It was some code which Eaton rec­
ognized but could not decipher at
once. The conductor was still stand­
ing In tbe aisle.
"When did you get this?" Eaton
asked, looking out
“Just now. That message- came
through yesterday some time and was
waiting for you at Simons; when we
got them this morning they sent It
on."
“I see; thanks." Eaton, assured that
If the conductor bad seen anything he
suspected no significance In what be
saw. closed his curtains and buttoned
them carefully. The conductor moved
on. Eaton took a small English-Chi­
nese pocket dlctldnary from hl* vest
pocket and opened It under cover ofthe blanket; counting five words up
from “thicket" be found “they”; five
down from “knot” gave him “know";
six up from “youngster” was "you";
six down from "omniscient” was
"one;" seven up from "issue" was
“is;” and so coctlnaing. he translated
the words to:
' t
“They know you. One Is following.
Leave train InstaAIy."
Eaton, nervous and jerky, as he
completed the first six words, laughed
as be complied tbe final three. “Leave
train Instantly I"
Tbe humor of
that advice In hl* present situation,
as be looked out the window at tbe
solid bank of snow, appealed to him.
A waiter from the dining car came
back, announcing the first call for
breakfast, and spurred him into actjon. Passengers from the Pullman
at tbe rear passed Eaton’s section for
the diner. He heard Harriet Dome's
voice In some quiet conventional re­
mark to tbe man who followed her.
Eaton started at It; then he dressed
swiftly and hurried Into the now de­
serted washroom and then on to
breakfast.
Harriet Dome was sitting facing
the do. r st the second of tbe larger
tables; opposite her, and with bls
back to Eaton, set Donald Avery. A
third place was laid beside the girl,
as though they expected Dome to
join them; but they had begun their
fruit without waiting.
The girl
glanced np as Eaton halted in the
doorway; her blue eyes brightened
with a look part friendliness, part
purpose. "Oh, Mr. Eaton," she smiled,
“wouldn’t you like to sit with us? 1
don’t think Father is coming to break­
fast now; and If he does, of course
there's fltill room."
She pulled back tbe chair beside her
enticingly; and Eaton accepted it.
“Good morning, Mr. Avery." be said
to Miso Dome’s companion formally
as be sat. down, and the man acrox*
tbe table murmured something per­
force.
As Eaton ordered his, breakfast, be
appreciated for the first time that his
coming had interrupted m conversa­
tion—or rather a sort of monologue
of complaint on the part of Standish
addressed Impersonally to Avery.
They engaged In converaation as
they breakfasted—-a conversation In
which Avery took oiravat no part,
though Mias Dsnw tried openly to
draw him In; then the sudden en­
trance of Cannery, followed closely by
a stout, brusque man who belonged
to the rear Pullman, took Eaton’s at­
tention and her*.
"Which Is him?" the man with Con­
nery demanded loudly.
Connery checked him. but pointed
at tbe same time to Eaton.
"That’s him. is It?" the other man
wild. "Then go ahead."
Eaton observed that Avery, who bad

What?"
Eaton felt he was paling ns he
faced the blustering smaller man. He
realized that tbe passengers be could
see—those at the smaller tables—
already had judged his explanation
and found him wanting; the others
unquestionably had done the same.
Avery was gazing up at him with it
sort of contented triumph.
“The telegram was for me. Conduc­
tor!" he repeated. ’
"Get that telegram. Conductor!" the
stout man demanded again.
“I suppose." Connery suggested,
“you have letters or a card or some­
thing. Mr. Eaton, to show your re­
lationship to Lawrence Hillward.”
"No, I have not."
Connery gazed from one claimant
to the other. "Will you give this gen­
tleman the telegram?" be asked Eaton.
“I will not”
“Then I shall furnish him another
copy; It wm received here on the
train by our express clerk as the op­
erator. I’ll go forward and get him an
other copy."
“That’s for you to decide," Eaton
said; and as though the matter was
closed for him, he resumed hi* seat
He was aware that throughout tbe
car the passengers were watching him
curiously.

waited until Eaton bad finished.

overF she said Impartially to tbe two.
They went through tbe Pullmans to­
gether.
Tbe first Pullman contained four or
five passengers; tbe next. In which
Eaton had his berth, was still empty
as they passed through. The next
Pullman also, at first glance, seemed
to have been deserted in favor of tbe
diner forward or of the club-car far­
ther .back. The porter had made ui
all tbe berths there also, except one;
but someone was still sleeping behind
tbe curtains of Section Three, for a
man's hand hnng over the aisle. It
was a gentleman’s band, with long,
well-formed fingers, sensitive and at
the same time strong. That was the
berth of Harriet Dome's father; Ea­
ton was the last of the three to pass,
and so tbe others did not notice bls
start; but so strong was. the fascina­
tion of tte band In the aisle that he
turned back and gazed at It before
going ob into tbe last car. Some
eight or ten j&gt;a&gt;«engere—men and
women—were lounging In the easy­
chairs of the observation room; a

■

A single beating plant, as In a great
university, should burn all the coal
without waste and supply heat to the
houses as well as community buildings,
writes Charlotte Perkins Gilman tn
The Century. The company store Is
often a cruel imposition In Industrial
towns; this one should -be kept for
the purpose of establishing bow cheap­
ly goods can be supplied to the con­
sumer, with fair wages to all con­
cerned.
It Is probable that a purely agricul­
tural neighborhood could not support
a well-supplied village without some
local industry to occupy labor In the
winter and to add to the Income of
the place. To establish this point
would be valuable.
If we show that such and such ad­
vantages are necessary to normal citi­
zenship In order that children may
grow up In full development; that
such a sized group and such a pro­
portion^ manufacture Is essential to
maintain these advantages; then out
women are going to select such towns
to live In.

Wide Interest in Zoning.
Wide interest In zoning Is perhaps
tbe outstanding feature in municipal
development in recent years. It la
now being realised that city building,
in respect to use of structures, their
height and the area of the lot occu­
pied, can no mure be left a free-for-all
scramble, with individual interests as
tbe sole guide, than fire and police
protection or. the question of a water
supply can be looked after as each
resident Sees fit. Zoning soon will be
aa important a factor in the compe­
tition of cities as are now public
health conditions or the maintenance
of law and order. Framing of suit­
able zoning legislation is of primary

Somethinq to Think About ■
DyF. AVALKEX

MANAGING MEMORY
■TT IS observed that tbe educated
-*• have, as a rule, a better memory
Chan the uneducatad. The reason for
this is obvious.
Tbe one class exercises Its capacity
for carrying things in Its mind and
thus gives memory strength, endur­
ance and ability to recall events,
names or dates at a moment's notice
while the other class permits memory
to become flabby and undependable.
Each Individual has within his or
her brain a certain amount of reten­
tive power, beyond which he or she
cannot go without unusual effort. And
if tbe effort is not put forth regular­
ly, with persistent determination to
Improve, memory will not of Itself
make notable progress.
V
There are. It Is true, native differ­
ences of retentive power.
One child Is from the first capable
•of retaining impressions of all kinds
more easily than others. A child with
a good natural ear for musical sounds
will be likely to retain sounds and
their successions better than another
■child deficient In this sense-endowmenL and so It goes through child­
hood to old age. with memory playing
fast or loose as It has been taughL
Faulty memory, if you go deeply
Into its cause, you will flnd very fre­
quently is the result of Inattention,
cspeclallv In adults who have become
absorbed In the problems ot life to
the exclusion of everything else.

And these usually are the people
who habitually complain.
They have ceased to see the sun­
light or to move forward. They sit
dejectedly at tbe crossroads, while
otl^ra pass them and go on their way
rejoicing.
A man or woman is not better than
his or her memory.
Each may have ability, pleasing
manners and good looks, but If he or
she is deficient in memory the road
will take to nowhere save to dlsappolntment.
The fact Is that good memory Is at
the base of every great success, hav­
ing for Its helpful couriers energy,
Industry and probity which give to
memory a strategic position from
which It cannot be shaken, even In
critical moments of stress when every­
thing depends on the right move.
He who mlsallles himself with bad
memory, refuses to manage his mem­
ory or drill it with utmost care, which
he can do by continual practice, allies
himself with failure, and In most in­
stances he haa nobody to blame for
his miserly incapacity and inherit­
ance but hl§ miserable self.

Success in the dairy business
or In keeping even a small herd
of dairy cows depends (like most
tilings do) In a great measure
upon the use of good common
sense. Cows produce the most
milk usually in the latter part
of May and June. Therefore,
what does the wise dairy fanner
do? He maintains as nearly as
possible the year round, the con­
ditions of those months when
production Is the hlghesL
Palatable food, a succulent
ration, and a balanced ration,
together with a moderate tem­
perature and comfortable sur­
roundings, will bring as near the
ideal producing conditions as is
possible, and an effort to keep
conditions so will pay big re­
turns.

IT WILL NOT ONLY BE A PLEASURE TO COME IN, BUT TO REN-

DER EVERY POSSIBLE ASSISTANCE TO MAKE YOUR CONNECTION HERE A PROFITABLE ONE

The Park theatre is offering its
patrons a real treat in a .special
Christmas offering—the screen ver­
sion of Alexander Dumas* immortal
story, "Monte Cristo.” It is a Wil­
liam Fox production, and no trouble
or expense was spared in making the
photoplay faithful to detail.
The Dumas story is deeply absorb­
ing and its dramatic material furn­
ishes a basis for one of the finest
screen dramas ever shown. The
plot deals with the stirring adven­
tures'of a young French sailor, Ed­
mond Dantes, who, on the eve of his
marriage, is arrested and thrown in­
to prison on false charges. He stays
there for twenty years and . finally
makes his escape. A fortune comes
to him from a former fellow prison­
er. He then seeks revenge and how
he succeeds without actually shed­
ding any blood by his own hands
make this a story and screen drama
of uncommon worth.
The picture will be shown on Sun­
day, Monday and Tuesday evenings,
Dec. 24, 25, 26, and owing to the
length, 10 big reels, there will be but
one show nightly, commencing at 8
o'clock. "Monte Cristo’’ has never
before been shown in this section of
the state, and Manager Sprague book­
ed it as a special Christmas treat for
his patrons. Everyone could and
should eee it. The admission charg­
es are only 15 and 35 cents.

Many Nashville business bouses
are giving out handsome calendars to
their patrons, and there is no re­
membrance more practical, more de­
sired or more gratefully received.
A large majority of the handsome
calendars going out are the product
ot the Nashville News presses, near­
ly all of the Nashville merchants
patronising their own town print
shop.
Our line of samplesxfor next year
will be on exhibition early in Jan­
uary. and we solicit your orders for
1924 calendars. We will show as
fine a line of samples aa any travel­
ling salesman for outside houses will
carry, and our prices will usually be
found about ten to fifteen per cent,
under alf others, for the reason that
we do not have the salaries and ex­
penses of salesmen to pay. and that
we do our own printing, in our own
shop, thus insuring the highest class
of work, free from errors.
Furthermore, it is not necessary
for you to place your orders early in
the year, unless you are particular
about having 'first choice from the
samples. We can accept orders as
late as October, and still deliver your
calendars in plenty of time for the
holiday season.
At least do yourself the justice of
looking over our line of samples be­
fore placing your orders with out­
side firms. We appreciate your bus­
iness and we sometimes have oppor-.
tunlty of reciprocating., which the
*
outside fellows never do:

GOOD WORDS HELP A HEAP.

nice bouquet at one and the same
time, we'll say It helps, and helps a
heap. Sure does. You don’t need

Shepherd, Mich., Dec. 15, 1922.
Editor Nashville News:
Friend Lee:—
Enclosed you will please find my
check for 84.50, in payment for two
subscriptions to the News for 1923.
Mall one to F. J. Brattln, Shepherd,
Mich., 82.00, and one to Carl L.
Brattln, Sidney, Montana, 82.50, and
oblige.
s .
Yours respectfully,’
t
F. J. Brattln.
P. S.—On February 23, 1906, we
left Nashville, "sack and pack”,
and moved to a farm In Gratiot
county. In five years sold the farm
and bought 40 acres in Isabella
county, near Shepherd, and In four
years wo sold this farm and moved
to Shepherd, our son Harry and my­
self buying the lumber yard, the com­
plete stock of building material,
lumber yard and real estate, and
have conducted the lumber business,
Including all kinds of builders’ sup­
plies for seven years (and might add
we feel quite successful). Three
years ago we built one of the best
and best equipped lumber sheds botween Cadillac and Toledo on the
Ann Arbor railroad.
Now, I am not telling this to boast,
but we want you and all the News
readers to know that all this time
we have been subscribers to the News
and each week myself and other
members ot the family are anxious
to get It from the postoffice and scan
its pages closely, as each week
brings us some news about some of
our friends In Nashville and vicinity.
And I want to add, we want the ed­
itor to know we have more than en­
joyed many of his editorials, giving
splendid advice to parents In the
care and training of their children,
splendid suggestions on schools and
school work, helpful sayings on com­
munity life and work, and always
boosting for Nashville, and because
we are and have been Interested In
all these, thought perhaps some of
our old friends might like to know
where we are and what we are do­
ing.' ‘
Very truly yours.
F. J. Brattln.

Chamber of Commerce of Lincoln.
Neb., Has Introduced New Fea­
tures of Great Value.

The children of a school were hav­
ing a performance for parents and vis­
itors during the Christmas holidays.
Oh, It was a very fine performance.
There was plenty of music to begin
with.
The singing was Ibvely and the reci­
tations were very fine. Some of the
very small children who recited could
not pronounce very well, but that
didn't make much difference.
They
were so cunning.
And when some of them forgot to
make their bows some one from be­
hind gave them, little pushes so that
they made their bows then.
A play was given, loo. and that waa
very fine, and everyone looked so hand­
some in costume.
• The very naughtiest little boy of all
took the part of an angel, for when his
face was still and he wasn't up to
any prank be did have quite an angel*
Like face!
And at the end of the performance
it was told about that Santa Claus
was going to appear.
Oh, what excitement there was.
“Santa Claus is coming,” every one
said. “Santa Claus is coming.”
And then they waited and they,
heard the wind outsider Yes. a wind
was blowing up and It was beginning
to snow hard.
They did hope Santa Claus would
not lose his way In the storm.
But then they were comforte^ in
thinking that no one had ever beard
of Santa Claus losing his way berate,
and he had surely taken a good many
trips and had traveled a great deal.
And then the wind blew more and
more, and they did not know whether

The Lincoln chamber of commerce
has a three-fold function.
It main­
tains a dub where all kinds of pub­
lic and private gatherings are held
dally. It Is the great clearing house
of socidl activity for the whole city.
The facilities of a fine and roomy club­
house arp extended to nonmembers for
community purposes with complete
generosity. The clubhouse, now worth
not far from $250,000. will soon be
paid for and will be in effect a munici­
pal building.
The Lincoln achieve­
ment' in financing and erecting this
building Is said to be unique in the
history of dtles of Lincoln's class.
The second function of the chamber
Is the massing of civic energy on so­
lution of business, social and In­
dustrial problems. In many cities the
chambers confine their energies to this
kind of work. Lincoln spends not far
from $30,000 a year. In these activities.
Including public hospitality, business
promotion, general advertising hnd the
encouraging of new ‘industries.
The
work is done conscientiously by the
officers and committeemen. It Is the
judgment of the leading business men
that the results flowing from this work
are alone wdrth more than the entire
cost of the organization.
The third activity of the chamber Is
the maintenance of a traffic bureau.
Comparatively few of the members
know that back In the club house out
of sight and hearing, telephones are
ringing almost constantly. They are
answered by rate experts who have at
their finger tips correct freight sched­
ules on al! the commodities handled by
Lincoln firms.
These experts save
large sums to the shippers, the aggre­
gate amounting to between $50,000
and $75,000 every year. This is but a
part of the work done by the bureau.
The battles? conducted by Secretary
Whitten to prevent rate discrimina­
tions against Lincoln have been the
business salvation of the community.—
Nebraska State Journal.

Woman’s Interest Means Much.
When we speak of home, we must
not forget the larger home—the com­
munity. We, as mothers, must be In­
terested and take an active part In all
that concerns the welfare of the world
into which our boys and girls find
their way when the doors of the
mother home swing out. The environ­
ment we create Inside our four walls
will Influence the lives of those chil­
dren In the days of struggle and ef­
fort to find places for themselves in
the world. There Is no perfect home.
Neither will there ever be a perfect
community. But If the community at­
mosphere more nearly approaches that
of the best homes, our fears and our
doubts would be lessened when our
babies grown tall set forth in search
of adventure. The woman’s interest
and influence will go far toward mak­
ing the community an enlarged and,
magnified home of which we can and
will be proud, and not afraid.

A City Kept Weft.
A city Is spick and span, well kept,
beautiful, when Its Individual homes
are neat and attractive, when its va­
cant spaces are not eyesores. The
city is a collection of details. If these
are neglected, the city looks slovenly.
A man may think It makes no differ­
ence if he Is a little careless around
bls home, if he lets his lawn become
unkempt. If he dumps trash In a va-,
cant lot. But such carelessness on
the part of one family may ruin an
attractive block, and one slovenly
block nifty hurt a whole neighborhood.
Such matters as curds tacked on
poles, advertising signs on boulevards
and In residence neighborhoods, weeds
and tin cans on vacant lota, may seem
small matters In any particular In­
stance. But when such things accu­
mulate ap'y make the city look ragged
and run down at the heel.

Paint Your Home.
Paint will do wonders for a home.
It brings a refreshing appearance,
gives a pleasing touch and la a source
of satisfaction to the owner. Probably
you have noticed when one home own­
er paints bis dwelling that the paint­
ing germ soon inoculates all the oth­
er home owners near that property.
It's an Infection that works for better
homes. A few dollars for paint Is al­
ways a good investment.

sleigh or whether the noise was all
made by the wind.
Just as they were almost giving up
hope of bls coming some one shouted:
"I hear sleigh bells!" And there wers
many bells—just as though all the
reindeer had come.
Everyone listened. Everyone was
very quiet *s’ot a sound was made.
And yes, yes, there was no mistake
about It.
The bells that could be
heard were the bells of the reindeer—
of many reindeer.
Oh, how excited everyone waa.
The sound of the bells came nearer
and nearer and nearer. The sleigh
&lt;.ould not be far away now.
Then some one called out and said:
“Let's turn out the lights so we
can see him coming up the steps of
the building."
Bo the lights were tnmed out and
the great room was In darkness.
And then they heard aistamplng and
a pounding, and down at the foot of
the steps stood Santa Claus.
He was dressed in an enormous red
coat trimmed with white and on his
head he wore a long red stocking cap.
Hlfe face was so red and ruddy and
bls mustache and beard so white.
He was brushing off the snow from
bls great boots, and as be did so
he called ont to bis reindeer down the

“Good-by for a little while, my
beauties. I'll meet you again at the

“Stay there, my beauties, and Santa

Ob, such a shout as there was when

Biggest X-Ray Apparatus

World

Garfield hospital, Washington, D. C., has Installed the largest X-Ray ap­
paratus In the world for the treatment of cancer. This machine Is so designed
that It Is unnecessary for the patient, attendants and ojierator to be protected.
A jacket of lead, one-half Inch thick, lines the cylinder, effectually preventing
the escape of the rays. A slx-lnch aperture In the bottom permits the rays to
play upon the parts of the body selected for treatment. The equipment de­
livers 200,000 volts, which Is 100 per cent greater than has been produced in
America by any other such apparatus.

I was Inspired with this Idea. My two
figures, with the woman standing a

fore I have given him brawn and

KALAMO.
Our taxes this year show" &gt;5,000,
less than last year, but &gt;4,000 of
this is off of the drain tax so that
the most of us are paying around the
same thing as last year. There is
119,566 for the road, &gt;8,253 for the
schools, 19,506 for overhead ex­
penses and &gt;500 for miscellaneous,
etc., which accounts for the &gt;87,815.22, 1922 tax.
This makes ft
very apparent that taxes are not go­
ing to shrink any as long as we keep
up our good roads program but
practically every real tax payer Is a
car-user and why? Because of our
good roads he can use one to' get
most any where at most any time of
the year owing wholly to our good
roads thus making car and
roads
both a big business and pleasure as­
set and giving us value for our road
tax by 5 to 1 against any other
money we spend toward furthering
either.

THE ANNUAL
ROMANCE
By Mary Graham Bonner

day after Christmas. She couldn't
very well be married before then a-‘
her fiance was so especially, unusual
ly busy at Christmas time, and 11
would have been cruel, too, not to have
waited.
For Bill, her beloved, took the pari
of a Santa Claus every Christmas for
one of the big city stores. He was an
ideal Santa Claus. He wasn't too tall,
be was not too short; he was rather
inclined to a stockiness of build, and
extra clothes made him look an ideal
round Santa. He had a ruddy face
and snapping blue eyes—and dressed
In a Santa Claus costume he was per­
fect.
How the children did adore him!
And how he loved them! They whis­
pered their secrets to him and their
eyes danced with rare happiness when
he waved a good-bye to them and
called them:
“Sweethearts," and “My dears,” and
“Children dears,” and other affection­
ate terms.

“I've always had lots of romance In
my nature,” she said to him one eve

be awful to be like some folks—some
I know and some I’ve heard talk. One
lady who dime to the store with n

each had other friends, and sometime*
they met and embarrassed others when
they told that they were married. For

To get the best out of our dairy
cattle we must grow the heifers out
and develop them well, because thw
heifer of today Is the cow of tomor­
row, says J. P. LaMaster, chief of
the dairy division, who states that tho
majority of the dairy heifers In South
Carolina are undersized.
The dairy
heifer is a future milk producing ma­
chine. and the larger she is the great­
er will be her capacity to consume
feed and therefore to produce milk,
other things being equal.
The question often comes up in
feeding heifers us to whether they
are making a good growth, for their
age.
How big should a slx-monthsoid heifer be? What should she

For’ Instance, if a twelve-montlis old
Jersey heifer weighs approximately

growth; eighteen, months old, 575
pounds.
A Holstein heifer, on the
other hand, should weigh about 560
pounds, and at eighteen months. 690
pounds.
The weight of an animal Is not the
whole story, however. The height 'at
the withers Is also an excellent In­
dication.
The normal Jersey heifer
at six months should be about 37
Inches, at the withers; at twelve
months 42% Inches, at eighteen
months. 45% inches, nnd at two years
47% inches. HolRteins at the same
age are higher—at six, months, 39.7

eighteen months, 47.9’inches; and at
two years, 49.8 Inches. ’

PROMISE

TN BUSINESS the man whose rating
among his associates Is the highest
is the man who keeps his promises.
Promises to pay, of course, must
be kept If they are not there is no
more credit for the gentleman who
makes them.
'
But business is not all promises to
pay. There are promises to enter into
contracts; promises to have shipments
ready at a certain time; promises to
make business engagements.
And the man who is more prodigal
of promises than he is of remember­
ing to keep them soon Is regarded
with distrust and suspicion.
A man who has been Immensely suc­
cessful in the manufacturing business
is regarded by his associates as “hard
boiled" in the matter ot promises.
It is almost impossible to get one
out of him. But once his promise is
given, performance Is assured, even
though the performance may mean a
heavy financial loss toTiim.
He has discovered that It is just
as profitable to him to keep his prom­
ises at par aa it Is to keep the stock
of his concern at par.
You may not be In business, or con­
nected with business, save in the ca­
pacity of a minor employe^
But you will find that the value of
your promises Is just as important to
you as the value of your employer’s
promises are to him.
You will leam If you are observant
that you are judged not by making

promises but by keeping them. And
If after many trials your promises are
found to be good you will be trusted.
When a man is trusted he has made
an excellent starV
It Is always well to consider the
matter of a promise before you make
It This applies as much to a momIse to take lunch at a certain time of
a certain day as to fulfill an Impor­
tant business engagement
If you make no promises that you
are not reasonably sure to keep, you
will come to regard your word as
worth something.
If your friends
know that they will not Heed to call
you up and remind you of a promise,
your value will increase in their
eyes.
‘
The promise-breaker is a word­
breaker. am! word-breakers have no
standing. Think well of your word,
and you will keep your promises. And
as soon as this is established the
world will think well of you.

counter attractions may be, they in
time lose their appeal, and those who
have followed them come to see there
is no contentment in them.
One vital reason for having a home
Is to be able to share it with one's
friends, to be able to extend a gen­
erous hospitality and good cheer to
those with whom we come in contact
who are not our immediate family.
The charming bungalow described In
this article is designed to fulfill all the
requirements we have mentioned. It
is a place that anyone would be proud
to call home.
It Is compact, attrac­
tive, neat nnd coxy.
The general tendency among home
builders today is to build smaller
homes. They are easier to live in and
easier to take care ot The modern
apartment houses have demonstrated
the advantages of living in compact
quarters.
People are building their
homes along the same lines.
The architect designed this bunga­
low with that Idea In view.
It Is
ideally adopted for the small couple
who desire a home of their own that
is coxy and compact and easy to take
care ot
The floor plan is laid out so that
many space-saving features may be
installed, adding to the efficiency and
convenience of the arrangement.
The exterior is set-off attractively
by the clapboard walls, the extended
■nd sloping roof and the platform and
terrace.
The windows are laid in
well, providing plenty of light and
ventilation for all the rooms.
The floor plan follows the usual in­
terior arrangement of American bunga­
lows. There are fi»e rooms and bath,
all of convenient and comfortable size.
From the front entrance one enters
the living room. It is well lighted
and ventilated, having three windows
on the front and two on the ride. It
Is 12 feet by IT feet, and is the largest
room in the house. Directly ahead is
the dining room located between the
living room and kitchen, as the floor
plan indicates. It has three windows
and is 11 feet by 13 feet fl Inches. It

tight money In an era of plenty, the
wife of a Kokomo banker was gently
pushing her pet plan of remodeling
their home and was telling her hus­
band all about- It at the dinner table,
while his mind was concentrated upon
an application for a right sizable Ioan
for an interurban project
“One.of the things we must have,"
she said, “Is a downstairs lavatory."
“Eh?" replied her absent-minded
spouse.
“What does Morgan say
about that?"
Inasmuch as she didn’t know Mor­
gan from Adam’s off ox, explanations
were in order.—Indianapolis News.

There can be little doubt now of
the value of the milking machine and
the in)|M&gt;rtant part that It is playing
in the development of more profitable
dairying.
The contention that milk­
ing machines are harmful to cows,
that they tend to tear down the udder
and render the cows useless, has
proven to be generally untrue.
The recent Improvements that have
been made on the leading makes of
milking machines have made it pos­
sible for the practical fanner to In­
vest In one with a comparative cer­
tainty of securing beneficial results
provided he gives the machine care.
The right use of the milking ma­
chine is just one more step toward
more profitable dairying, more con­
tented dairymen and more wholesome
niDk.—IL IL Lascelles, in Indiana

Busy at the Capital.
A young man from Virginia came to
Washington the other day. It was his
first visit to any place larger than bls
county seat, and the rush of pedes­
trians, motors and street cars made
him register as many thrills. After re­
covering from a daze that must have
been something like a motion-picture
nightmare, he gasped out a breath­
catching surmise to a friend on the
■ide:
“It’s mighty crowded here. Must be
court day.”
If the desire to see ourselves as oth­
ers see us applies to things as well
as people, that was one time, anyhow,
that this old town had a chance to
grin.—Washington Star.

Yes, Why Is It?
Mrs. Silly, deeply- absorbed In ■ ro­
mance of the Seventeenth century,
suddenly looked up at her husband.
"Jack," she said, “listen to this:
*By my halldom.’ exclaimed Sir Ru­
pert, 'it Is past the hour of 12 T What
is a halldom?"
"What do you suppose It is?" re­
sponded Jack. "Can’t you tell from
the context? Str What’a-bis-name said
ft was pari the hour of 12 by his halldnm, didn’t he? I should think any­
body could tell from that sentence
that halldom is the old English name
for watch. Why is It that some women
are unable to exercise thrix reasoning
faculties?"

Care at Calving Time

\

Separate the cow from the
herd several days before calving
date. In summer open pasture
and in winter clean dry stall are
ideal calving* conditions.
Feed a bran mash for first
four to six feeds after calving.
Feed a light grain mixture,
such as equal parts oats and
bran, until swelling Is out of
udder.
After udder is normal, start
milk ration at four ■ to five
pounds dally, and Increase grad­
ually one pound every other day
until natural milk floa^-ls
reached.
/
Continue feeding accordlng.to
production.

J----------------------------Milk With Clean Hanus.
The milker should always mljk with
dry clean hands. It is a filthy habit,
to say the least, to milk with wet
handstand It is a mistaken idea that
milking with wet hands makes milk­
ing easier.

Whole Milk for Calvaa.
Whole milk should be fed the calf
until it Is three weeks old. At this
time skim milk may be. substituted for
part of the whole milk. Make the
rhango gradually.

-yi s iT- any wonder that the

• felt a trifle discouraged? Is
It xany wonder when the
l’aveiuents were 80 cold, the
jjflBLidy wind so keen and his coat
so thin? It seemed, on that
''54 shivery Christmas Eve, as
if everything was trying to
make life as dreary as possible, in­
stead of as merry. It would not even
snow. A fine, sharp drizzle swept in
under the bridge where the man with
the tin whistle stood, and managed to
get Inside the tops of his boots and
his collar and up his coatsleeves; it
was very disappointing inaeeu.
Holiday season was usually a jolly
one for pennies. Either people had a
great deal more at that time, or they
were bent on getting rid of those they
had. The man with the tin whistle
kept a little cup that possessed a most
remarkable appetite for coppers! It
could hold as many pennies at one
gulp as a boy eating raisins out of a
plum pudding; and that’s saying a
great deal! But today the little cup
was almost empty. Nobody had time
to stop and dig around In pockets for
loose coins; It was too cold, and their
gloves bothered and they wanted lo
get home, where their children were
waiting to chip their hands over the
packages from the stores. The man
with the fin whistle wanted to get
home, too. He did not have any chil­
dren waiting for him, and they would
have had no bundles to squeal over-if
he did, but there was a funny, raggedy
dog that always expected something,
and danced around In a dizzy, delight­
ful way that was very cheerful. But
how could the man with the tin whls-!
tie go home when his tunes brought
him nothing but numb Angers and a
feeling In his feet as if they had
turned to wood?
However, he screwed up his mouth,
took a long breath, pretended that pen­
nies were making his little cup ring
like sleigh bells and played the gayest
little tune you ever heard! It laughed
Its way up the windy stairs Into the
B

station; It chuckled along the cold
stones on the gray wall; it capered
about the pavement Uke an elf doing
a polka and was altogether the merri­
est piece of business in that particular
spot that had happened for y^sra. The
man with the tin whistle was thinking
about Ravellngs,^hls dog at home, and
I’m convinced It put something Into
his tune that was irresistible. For let
me tell you! In two minutes who
should come running down the steps
In front of him but a young lady with
the pinkest cheeks and the laughlngest eyes he had ever seen. She was
_ smiling at him as though she had
■ I known him all her life.
r: I *i Jove that tune!" she said. “It al■ ways make me want to skip my feet.
” You can’t think how nice it Is to bearlg It this miserable night Thank you!"
B An^ the little cup had the surprising
■ mouthful of a quarter.
■
“There's supper for me and RaveL
■ Ings,” thought the man with the tin
■ whistle, as he tipped his hat
H
And before he could decide whether
■ it would be hot dogs or soup, Bome■ body else was smiling at him. This
■ time It was a quiet man with grey
■ hair.

“I always look for you when I come

■ Ilka to hear those rollicking little
■ ‘'tunes you play. It cheers a man up

Merry
■ Christmas!" And, if you’ll believe me,
■ the quiet man with the gray hair
B tossed in half a dollar! The little tin
■ cup rattled importantly and gave every
■ Indication of being ready for anything
■ after this.
On went the frolicking melody. On

An whistle atantrt forgot how void- his
feet were and that the ruin-had suc­
ceeded In making bls stockings very
wet and wretched. It really must have
been the tune, for everybody had a
coin and a bit of greeting. So he
played and played and played. He
thought his luck would change if he
changed the tune, and he very nearly
blew the breath out of him. keeping
the notes dancing about In that dismal
place. Ravelings and he were going to
Vave the finest supper In all Christen­
dom, if whistling could do it.
Some people threw In pennies, and
some threw In dimes, and an occasion­
al one dropped a quarter; but the best
surprise of all came at the last (which
is the way it should be, especially on
Christmas Eve).
The man with the tin whistle was
just about to take It away from his
mouth and start home when a little,
old lady, with white hair, stopped In
front of him. Her eyes twinkled like
frosty stars and there was something
about her that made one think of a
chickadee. Perhaps It was hpr bright,
quick eyes, or tnayhe the way she put
her head on one side nnd looked so' ex­
ceedingly wise and happy. The man
with the tin whistle thought she was
the nicest old lady he had ever seen.
And this was before she had said a
word.
“Somebody,” chirped the old lady
(her voice was like a chickadee's, too,
only It did not say -whut a chickadee
does), “Somebody who went through
here last year about this time has sent
you a present. That somebody was
very discouraged over a lot of things.
And the day was discouraging, too, jusi
like this. But you were playing away
here for all you were worth, just as It
the sun were shining and your feel
were warm as toast. The tune was the
same one you are tootling now. And
that somebody decided that if you
could stand and whist)#* a jolly air In
all the cold and wet and drizzle, that
iUwas time to make himself brace up
and do something. And he did." The
old lady twinkled harder than ever.
The rann with the tin whistle wondered
what In the world she was going tc
say next. But she did not say any
thing for a minute. She whipped out
a pocketbook, snapped open the top
took out a small, folded piece of pa­
per and handed It to the man with the
tin whistle. Then she snapped hei
pocketbook together, put It in her bag.
perked- her head on one side and
chirped, “Merry Christmas! The man
was my son." And she was gone before
you could say Jack Robinson!
Ravelings and his master had a sup
per worth talking about that night, I

can tell you! For what do you sup
pose that folded bit of paper was? A
new, rattling ten-dollar bill! Yes, sir
And Ravelings will remember that par
tlcular Christmas Eve as long as h&lt;
can wag his tall or gnaw a bone. Ant
the man with the tin whistle declarer
he would never get discouraged again
no matter how dreadful the weathei
was. Ravelings approved
this de­
termination and ate another chop at
once.
And the man with the tin whistle
still plays tunes all the way from c

he saw that the bag was no longer
there.* It stood now between the two
seats on the flour, and picking it up
and looking at It. he found It unfas­
tened and with marks about the lock
which told plainly that It had been
forced.
He set It on the floor between his
knees and checked over Its contents.
Nothing had been taken, bo far as
he could tell; fqr the bag had con­
tained only clothing, the Chinese,dic­
tionary and the box of cigars, and
these all apparently were still there.
He had laid out the things on the
seat across from him while checking
them up, and now he began to put
them back In the bag. Suddenly he
noticed that one of his socks was
missing; what had been Hevea pairs
was'now only ten pairs aud one odd
sock.
.
This disappearance of a single sock
was so strange, so bizarre, so per­
plexing that—unless It was acciden­
tal—he could not account for It at all.
No one opens a man's bag and steals
one sock, and he was quite sure there
had been eleven complete pairs there
earlier In the day. Certainly then. It
had been accidental: the bag had
been opened. Its contents taken out
and examined, and in putting them
back, one sock had been dropped un­
noticed. The absence of the sock,
then, meant no more than that the
contents of the bag had been thor­
oughly Investigated. By whom? By
the man against whom the telegram
directed to Lawrence Hillward had
warned Eaton?
Ever since his receipt of the tele­
gram, Eaton—ns he passed through
the* train In going to and from the
diner or for other reasons—had been
trying covertly to determine which.
If anyone, among the passengers, was
the “one" who. the telegram had
warned him, was “following" him.
For at first he had interpreted Lt to
mean that one of "them" whom he
had to fear must be on the train.
Later he had felt certain that this
could not be the case, for otherwise
any one of "them" who knew him
would-have spoken by tills time. Now
his suspicions that one of "them" must
be aboard the train returned.
The bag certainly had not been car­
ried out the forward door of the car,
or he would have seen It from the
compartment at that end of the car
where he had sat smoking. The bug.
therefore, had been carried out the
rear door, and the man who hod
opened It, If a passenger, must still
be hr the rear part of the train.
Eaton, refilling his cigar-case to
give his action a look of casualness,
got up and went toward the rear of
the train. A porter was still posted
at the door of the Santoine car. who
warned him to be quiet In passing
through. The car, he found, was en­
tirely empty; the door to the drawing
room where Santoine lay was closed.
He went on into the observation
car. A few men and women possen, gers here were reading or talking.
Glancing on past them through the
glass door at the end of the car, he
saw Harriet Santoine standing alone
on the observation platform. The
girl did not see him;,her back was
toward the car. As he went out onto
the platform and the sound of the
closing door came to her, 'she turned
to meet him. ,
She looked white and tired, and

Truth needs no flowers of speech.

“I didn't, really think I’d have a
pet," said Dorothy to her motlier and
daddy.
She had just found the small black •
kitten which Santa Claus had left to
her.
“I did want a pet more than any­
thing, as I told Santa Claus, but I was
so late in telling him I was afraid he'd
surely have his present all, all ready.
“Oh, how good Santa Claus is, and
what a darling kitten. At last I have
a pet”
And Dorothy ran around the room,
singing and dancing and shouting:
"Now I have a pet; oh. goodie, oh,
goodie!”
.
But then she went over to her kitten
and held it closely.
“What friends we’ll be," she said.
Then she noticed some puper dangling
from the kitten’s ribbon how.
For, around the kitten’s neck, was
a big red bow, and attached to the
bow was a note. This was what the
note said:
&gt; “I’m a kitten, Dorothy, as you can
see. My name Js Merry Christmas.

RESUME BUILDING OF HOMES

Excellent Sign In American Life is the
Renewed Interest Along
That Line.
Home building, which underwent
something of a decline during the
World war and for a short time there­
after, has become a passion In the Uni­
ted States. Judging by figures which
are presented to the attention and
consideration of the public. From a
survey of the situation in the coun­
try it Is said that about $5,000,000 has
been spent for hpme building tills
year. Such a colossal enterprise, quite
naturally, is worthy of more than mere
cursory consideration. It Is, to begin
with, a most encouraging sign of sta­
bility for the nation,. America, as a
country of home builders and home­
owners, need have little worry about
its future. This is one of the com­
pelling talking points In connection
with discussions of our national posi­
tion. At least a start has been made
In catching up with a condition which,
during the war and for many months
after the cessation pf hostilities,
threatened to become most alarming
in the nation’s affairs. Construction
work has progressed to a point during
1922 where it seems more than likely
that It will continue. The movement
because of its own weight will con­
tinue for some time to come.—Dayton

"Oh, little Merry Christmas," Doro­

fur after her father had finished read­
ing the note aloud, "you won’t be

longing for a pet any more, for I have

“The kitten looks better already for
having seen Santa Claus and having
been given one of his meals and In be­
ing your best Christmas present," said
Dorothy’s father.
VYes," agreed Dorothy’s mother,,
“the kitten looks already as though It
would be good and strong."
"Me-ow, me-ow," said the kitten, as
It It quite agreed, too.
“You love me; you love your little
new missy, don’t you, kitty?" asked
Dorothy.
And the kitten answered:
"Me-ow. me-ow, me-ow."
"That means ‘Yes,’ I know," said
Dorothy.
“I don*! believe it will be long before
you understand Cat language to perfec­

“I Just can’t get over my happiness,"
said Dorothy.
"Me-ow, me-ow, me-ow," said tho
kitten.
“I’m-sure that means that the kitten
feels the same way about It,” said-Dor­
othy’s mother.
“But I must give the kitten a meal
at once," said Dorothy. “Would you
like some nice milk?”
“Me-ow, me-ow, me-ow," said the kit­
ten.
•Tm sure that means *Yes,’ too,"
laughed Dorothy.
And after she had fixed a saucer of
warm milk for the kftten and had seen
the way It had been lapped up she
said:
“Now I’m sure that last me-ow
meant ‘Yes’ I"
And that evening, after Dorothy had
put her kitten to bed In a nice warm
basket, back of the kitchen stove, and
had sung the kitten a lullaby, she
heard it purring softly.
“It Is having sweet dreams. I
know,” said Dorothy to her mother as
she went off to bed.
“And I know Fll have sweet dreams

The steps are reinforced by one-fourtbinch round iron rods, and while con­

ordinary requirements, are so light
that they may be easily handled by
two men. A gritty granite surface is
used which makes them practically
slip-proof and, at the same time, a
careful curing, process renders them
sufficiently hard to resist abrasion,
thus giving the product additional

Guarding Against Firs.
Most fires could be prevented with
cade. It Is the duty of every citizen
to exercise such care. In autpmn, for
Instance, when fires are being kindled
tn homes, factories and apartment
houses, there will be many serious
fires due to neglect of householders
and Janitors to make certain their
flues are in good order. Inflammable
rubbish* is removed from basements,
coal Is property stored, etc. Dampness
has rusted many pipes and flues in
the course of the summer. Sudden
heat and strong drafts will break
down these weak spots and break out
In flames which may destroy a dwell­
ing or a/block. A careful Inspection
of all flues, pipes and fire boxes will
prevent innumerable fires. Each sea­
son has its dangers. Overheating In
winter is to be guarded against, and
summer is a time for extreme caution.
Should Conform to Standard.
With the revival in home construc­
tion that has come during the last
year the efforts that are being put
forth to make these-homes better and
brighter should not be la vain. Home
construction along the right lines
means not only added beauty outside
and attractiveness within, but addi­
tional value as well. A badly designed
home In a residential locality is a
doubtful Investment at best. A good
hotlse In the right location built to con­
form to modern housing standards is
almost invariably an excellent one.

Busy the Rest of the Morning.
Mr. and Mrs. Squirrel were busy the
rest of
morning taking them home.
And they asked the Chatter-Reds to
join them and fill up their larder, too!
So every one had a Merry Christmas
and Mrs. Squirrel did not have to put
both hands in her apron pockets for
months and months!

Christmas
Inconsistency
(®, 1022, Western Newepcpcr Union.)

HpWO men were finishing their
Christmas shopping late one
Christmas eve.
“Let's call a taxicab," said one. "We
have so many bundles and it is start­
ing to rain.”
A little boy offered to get them
one. He only had to go a few steps
before he found one. And he held
the door open wide for the two men
as he had seen carriage starters and
automobile starters do.
He had been looking for odd jobs
that evening. His Christmas money
was not very much, and he did want
to got just a few Christinas presents
to give away. He had already made
some. If he could only get ten cents
now he would have enough. That
would buy his mother's present. He
wanted to get her a pink carnation,
lie had seen such beauties, and they
went ten cents apiece.
One of the men paid no attention to
him. The other fumbled at his
pocket. “Here, don’t be silly, you’ll
give the child bad ideas," said his
friend. “He really didn’t do anything.
He will think he can beg for any­
thing. That’s a bad Influence you’re
exerting." he muttered on, as the man
who had fumbled at his pocket drew
forth a shiny ten-cent piece and gave
It to the boy, whose pale face and
dark eyes lighted up In joy.
Later they stopped In at a restau­
rant to have something to eat. The
man who had reproved the other for
the ten-cent tip to the small boy hand­
ed the waiter a large tip in advance,
which made the waiter fawning in his
attentions.
“Well get better service," he ex­
plained, “and then, too, it's Christmas
time."
'
But the friend who had been re­
proved said: “You don’t think you’re
exerting a bad influence by any
chance, do you?"
And the boy bought the carnation
and went home, successful and happy,
but the waiter snubbed the next cus­
tomer because he failed to get an ex­
orbitant tip.

During the summer, for/ example,
she had taken n trip. fJverytn.e seemed
to enjoy It. Everyone seemed to be
glad to get away from the world with
its scandals and Its spoilt civilization.
That was what everyone said as they
took the trip through the simple wilds,
remote and picturesque and old.
Tills seemed to be the life everyone
longed for and then some one men­

nearby some months before.
With a dash everyone made for the
scene—so they could tell the people
back home that they Jiad seen the lo­
cality of die scandal and Ellen had
been disgusted. Was It such a sordid
world after all?
Then she had taken some poor chil­
dren to "a big store to see the Christ­
mas display und they had been refused
admittance. The customers had ob­
jected to such crowds of children—
they wanted to see the display them­
selves—why should poor children see
the toys when they could only look?
And all about the outside of the store
were eager little faces peering into
the windows and hoping that perhaps
they could get in .when the one who
watched at tlie door was not looking.
Once ta a while one did and the chil­
dren from outside waited for the news.
“What did you see? What did you
see?” they shouted as the lucky one
came out again.

complalners had bought six copies of
“The Christmas Carol" by Dickens to
give away to friends. Ellen heard that
later. It had not'improved matters.
And on this same Christmas trip an
other she had met hud said to her that
these children had such shamefully
poor coats and had reproved Ellen.
“I wish,” the woman who had spok­
en so sharply to Ellen had said, “that
they had some of the nice warm things
t»elonglng to my children," but whenEllen suggested that she should do
something for these children she had
gone off angrily.
And another person had patted her
as she had seen her walking with these
children and had said:
"A fine work, my dear."
And Ellen knew that the woman felt

Christmas service and Christmas love
by making that speech.
But when Ellen began to see the
trees which were sent to the city for
Christmas she felt better. The smell
of the trees gave her some of the
Christmas spirit. Oh. yes, it was all
right after all, she had been seeing
only what was disagreeable and ev­
erything else had passed her by.
And then one day ta the crowded
section of the city she saw a small

A. C. Baer, head of the dairy
department at Oklahoma A. and
M. college, gives as reasons for
a allo on a dairy farm:
•
1. More feed can be stored in
a given space in form of silage
than in form of fodder or hay.
2. A smaller loss of food materlqj when a crop is made Into
allage. 3. Corn silage Is a better feed
than" corn fodder.
4. An-acre of corn or kanr
can be placed into a silo at
les* cost than the same area
when husked and shredded.
" 5. Crops can be put In the
silo during weather which could
not be utilised for curing fodder
or hay.
6. More stock can be kept on
a given area of land when silage
la the basis of a ration.
Less waste In feeding sil­
than fodder.
Silage Is very palatable.
Silage, like other succulent
feeds, has a beneficial effect
upon the digestive organs.
10. Silage Is the cheapest and
best form In which a succulent
feed can be provided in the win­
ter.
11. Silage can be used for sup­
plementary pasture more cheap­
ly than can soiling crops, be­
cause It requires less labor and
cattle like silage better.
12. Converting corn or kafir
crops into silage dears the land
and leaves It ready for another
crop.

Some Interesting Facts Reported From
Various States on Tuberculosis

(Prepared by the United State* Department

Reports to the United States Depart­
ment of Agriculture on tuberculosis
eradication In the various states con­
tain some interesting facts on the prog­
ress of the work. For example, it has
been found that Missouri leads in test­
ing on the co-operative plan, with a
total of 184)67 herds, containing 107,­

found 1,068 diseased animals.
The record for the largest number
of cattle tested goes to an employee
of the state of Missouri, who tested
144512 cattie in 1,386 herds. Second
on this list was a veterinarian hired
by Shelby county, Iowa, who tested
722 herds, containing 1,120 animals.
A veterinarian of the bureau of animai industry in eight months and
twenty days tested 11,828 cattle in 083
herds. This is a monthly average of
1.364 animals toted. The record Is
remarkable when it is known that the
cost was only 18 cents a head. The

THE enriy days of AmerI lea’s history Christmas fes
J tivlties were n*t generally
observed.
In one state the observa­
tion of Christmas was utterly de­
nounced as an evil, ungodly and per­
nicious custom, and any child daring
to think of as much as a plum pud­
ding on that day would make himself
liable to reproof by the authorities.
All along the stem and rock-bound

children knew. Christmas was Just

old church had spent itself to some

It May Taka Few Years to Bring About
Desired Results, but It Will
Pay Well.
More cows, more cream, more
skimmed milk, and more manure would
mean more profit In farming on some
farms. It may take a few years to
raise enough cows, or to get enough, to
make the farm richer and more profit­
able, but it will be worth while, Plana
may be made and thus slowly but sure­
ly farmers may’ work toward this plan.
Sunshine as Germicide.
Sunshine is very necessary to the
vigor of all young growing animals.
It is an excellent germicide and for
that reason serves to purify the sur­
roundings and to keep the young calf

last
Christmas day; and I will
tell you , . ■ .
. that tt
ended happily. But it be­
gins sadly. It was Christ­
mas day up ut the North
pole, and as usual on the
day before Christmas, St. Nicholas
had been hurried and rather grumpy.
Only this time. Mother Nicholas
Urnught to herself that he was Just
a bit grumpier than she had ever
known him. And at suppertime she
found that she was right.
He came Into the kitchen, closing
his workshop door with a bang, and
sat down with all the little &gt;Teholases
to bls porridge.
“Well, I’ve said It before,” he
growled, “but this time I mean It. The
children down there in the world will
get nothing from iny pack this night.
It’s, time they were taught a lesson.”
All the little Nicholases gasped, but
Mother Nicholas only asked calmly :
“Why, what is the matter now, fa­
ther? After you’ve been working for
them the whole year, you wouldn’t
go and. disappoint the poor dears
would you?"
.
*
“Yes, I would," declared St. Nich­
olas, swallowing his porridge in great
gulps, and pretending that ho was not
a saint at all. “Half of them go around
saying that there isn’t any St. Nicho­
las. poking fun at me, and laughing
in their sleeves. And the other half
think .It makes no' difference whether
they are gnod children or not, I’ll fill
their stockings just Hie same. It’s a
thankless Job, I tell you. And I'm
too old a man for it. So!"
“Come." said Mother Nicholas, sooth­
ingly, “here Is a plate of grille cakes.
When you have eaten you will see
things differently.”
“No, when I have eaten I shall go
to bed. That's where an old fellow
like me belongs, an old fellow who
children don’t ‘ believe in."
Mother saw that he was determined,
and that there was nothing to do for
It, since griddle cakes wouldn’t help.
So she put her finger to her lips to
motion the children silent, and went
on quietly about her work. And when
St. Nicholas had finished his supper,’
lie did roil away to "bed, only telling
the little Nicholases to be sure to hang
their stockings, for they had been good
children all the year and still believed
In him.
The minute the door closed tiehlhd
him the little Nicholases burst into
excited chatter.
“Oh, what a jiltyl
Those poor children! Surely there
must be some good ones! Oh dpar,
what fun will Christmas be to-us if
all the children In the world down
there are .unhappy!”
“What indeed!" Mother Nicholas
shook her head and looked often at

olas could already be heard snoring.
“And the reindeer!” cried the old­
est boy, “what will they do. without
their yearly exercise? It seems as
though father might have gone, if only
for their sakes.”
Mother Nicholas thought so, too.
And at that minute they heard the
reindeer’s little hoofs beating on the
hard snow crust at the door. Wise lit­
tle beasts! St Nicholas had never
delayed the Christmas-Eve journey so
long before, and so here they were
to save him the trouble of going for
them. . The Nicholas children felt that
they never could face the poor little
reindeer’s disappointment
But what was Mother Nicholas do­
ing so busily over there by the cup­
board? The children looked in amaze­
ment It was seldom that mother
left the snowhouse at any time of day.

called over her shoulder and was away
out of the door almost iwfore they

in spite of having stopped to kiss all
the bubies, was buck ut the North
pole a whole hour earlier than -St.
Nicholas hud ever been able to make
it, even in bls younger days. Her
work was well done, too! But in
spite of the early hour, she found the
.children and her husband waiting for
her. St. Nicholas welcomed her back
more affectionately than the children.

he said, “out of such a horrid dream—
all about crying children und sad
mothers. Bless you, good wife, for
not letting that dream come true I” »

appropriately served, in small boxes
covered with red paper or holly pat­

tains a sandwich, slices of cake, nuts
and candles daintily wrapped in wax

Christmas design, is folded in each

T WAS not a very- cheerful
boy that was looking out of
the window at what little

the fine coasting days he

pect .of sport.
It wasn't a very cheerful house,
either. Mr. Bondage was a chainmak­
er, and.when he came home from his
iron works he always seemed to bring
his business uitlt him. The house of
Bondage was big and strong, but it
was hard, and still, and dark, and too
orderly. From the outside it looked
like a fort, and Inside, the chairs stood
at attention, like soldiers. The par
lor was a solemn place, where the
stiff 'furniture was seldom prevented
from looking at Itself in the gilded
mirror. The dining room didn’t get
the sun until towards evening, when
the motto, “Be Good and You Will Be
Happy” could be us plainly keen as
the otte on the opposite wall, “Chil­
dren Should Be Seen but Not Heard.”
When the boy. put on his hateij bib
there, it exhorted him with, “Don’t Eat
Too Much.”
Chained to the front porch was an
iron dog, whose fixed anti ferocious
snarl was a standing insult to all the
village dogs that could get through
the iron fence to dispute with him.
There was some fun about the place;
it was when a surprised dog retired
from the attack with a new respect for
the tough guardian of the Bondage In­
terests. Even the. Iron-clad knight In
the front hall seemed to laugh-through
his visor then.
Besides all tills, Ishmael had had. no
Christmas. Mr. Bondage did not be­
lieve In Christmas; to him Santa
Claus was a foolish Imagination and
a hurtful superstition. He had joined
“The Society for the Prevention of
Useless Giving,” and was glad to be
called a Spug. On December 25th he
had presented to his son a picture of
himself, standing in front of his office
with the scowl upon his face that rep­
resented his Idea of the expression of
greatness, but the only comfort of the
day for the boy had been the sweet
contents of- the small package that Ids
mother had smuggled Into his room
just before daylight. *.
But Ishmael Bondage had an Aunt
Sarah! And Aunt Sarah had' the
pleasantest home In the country. It
was a low, wide, rambling old house.
In the midst of the trees and hugged
by the climbing vines that loved 1L
There wasn't a place In it too good to

cheer of its friendly owners.’ That
was the bright spot for Ishmael. When
be went out there his aunt would hang
bls Fauntleroy suit up in the closet
and give him a leather suit that could
not be tom and tell him to go it. He
could«eat without a bib and there was
not a motto in sight By the time that
vacation was over he was a real boy.
The other boys stopped calling him
“Sissy" and no longer asked him If
his mother knew he was out Indeed,
he up and thrashed a bullying boy who
had knocked over one of his compan­
ions who was about half Lis size. Af­
ter this there was nothing that he
could not have among his crowd. So,
every vacation sent a prim but joyful
boy to Aunt Sarah and closed with a
more robust but rather dejected one on
