Mr.. Benton Miller one of the

Grace Bullock had a narrow es-
cape from being severely injured
last week. Her father was driving
through the field with a drill
hitched behind the wagon. And
Grace thinking to enjoy an unique
ride, seated herself upon the
tongue Of the drill, but lost her
balance, and rolled off. the drill
passing over her, since which time
she has been trying to accomplish
the art of limping on both feet at
the same time. Grace says the
drillings he has been subjected toat
school all winter was pretty hard,
but it is to be preferred to farm
drilling.

vitiated the atmosphere is, and
how great a strain it is upon the
moral fibre of the tender little
plants. The air in a room can
become gradually vitiated without
detection by the occupants and
one can only discover how bad it
is by attempting to breathe it
after inhaling pure air. We who
live in this locality have become
gradually accustomed to the
noisome pestilential atmosphere of
disregard for the laws of God or
man, and to none of us does it
seem SO bad as it really is; to none
of us does it seem so bad as it does
to the outsider who gets an oc-
casional Whit of it. To this part
is due a good deal of our indiffer-
ence and lack of apprehension for
its effect upon our children. If
every mother in this community
would spend a few minutes daily
in thorough systematic study of
the plastic, impressionable nature
of the child, and it's peculiar needs;
if she would spend, say one-half
hour weekly rejecting upon the
dangers that await the little
ledgling as soon as it makes it's
initial essay from the home nest,
she would discover why the boys
and the girls so often drift away
from the safe mornings of home.
The trend Of things spiritual as of
things physical is downward and
the best home training can be more
than counteracted by an unhealthy
public sentiment. Children begin
to observe and reflect earlier than
they r given credit for and it is
a comparatively hopeless task for
parents or teachers to endeavor to
inculcate precepts of moral recti-
tude SO long as a community
teaches by example that a man
con commit any crime in the
Decalogue and 20 UNPUBLISHED if
he has Influence"

certain destruction; an example
must be set; a warming must be
given, the man and the houn came
together and the city was saved.
The haunted house mystery is
explained at last. The cause of
the weird and awfulsounds ranging
from a hysterical laugh to a low
moan of agony, which have kept
the good people of the north side
in a state of terror for the past
week, was discovered to be moth
ing more or less than a series of
private rehersals by the con-
testants for the honors of the w.
|C. T. U. matrons oratorical con-
test on the evening of the Goth.
Judging from the program and
the efforts already mentioned,

1t is with a great deal of pleasure
the people of this village learn of
the brave act lately performed by
Corp. Wilson, who with Private
Erickson, lately captured Aguin-
aldo's fleet of gunboats on the
Pasig river. Corp. Wilsonlived in
Crary three years before joining
Company D. He came here from
Hamilton, N. D., and being a quiet,
gentlemanly and industrious fellow
soon got work and made many
friends. He worked for John
Crary on the farm for two years
and gave splendid satisfaction.
No one here is surprised at the
magnificent feat Of bravery per
formed by Bob, as all seemed to
feel that the young man would
distinguish himself before he re-
turned. The young man never
had much to say concerning his
past life, further than that he was
born near Rockford, ILL.,, where his
relatives are now supposed to be
living. He had belonged to the
regular army at one time, and
later had spent one season with
Ringling's circus. His life here
was exemplary, and nothing ever
happened to MAJ his splendid
record for good citizenship. Every
body who knew him is his warm
friend and all unite in hoping that
the brave act of this young man
will earn for him a promotion in
keeping with the brilliancy of his
daring achievement. If it was
left to the people of Crazy, Boil
would be a brigadier general

W. 6. 7. U.

We learn with no little salts
faction that the Woman's Relief
Corps, an organization Of some 30
or IS members. at their last meet
ing unanimously passed a resolu-
ton endorsing the stand our mayor
has taken on behalf of law and
order. If the :'arrest of thought
would come to all the wives and
mothers of this town, they could
speedily accomplish the reform
which our self-seeking brothers
are afraid to tackle. The women
of Hensbrugh had no votes, but
they had plenty of ready tack and
quick wit, they were willing and
courageous, and they saved not
only their homes and their city,
but their doomed men-folk as well.
Let us hope that history may
repeat itself.
The moral and spiritual future
of a community lies in the hands
of the mothers. Life is so complex
nowadays that it is difficult for the
home-maker to perform her multi
farious duties and it is only by
supreme effort that she can at all
times rise to the daily require
ments of her lot. But the COM
plexity which adds to the burdens
of the mother. also creates an
imperative necessity for more care
full, thorough, and painstaking
moral, spiritual culture Of her
children. In the good old days of
plain living and simple habits, of
healthy, natural, outdoor environ
ment, children grew up healthy in
body and pure in mind without
apparent effort on the parents part.
Just as plants will grow strong
and vigorous with little care or
trouble if allowed to grow in their
natural environment, but if taken
into the unhealthy atmosphere of
heated rooms, they Immediately
develop a tendency to grow para
sites and must be constantly
watched and sprayed and doctored.
Children are human plants, and
when we think of how the vege.
table plant will droop and grow
unhealthy in an atmosphere that
is too hot, or too dry, or that does
not contain sufficient pure air, can
we wonder that the moral and
spiritual natures of our little
human plants will lose vitality and
develop parasitical tendencies
when we attempt to real them in 6
vitiated atmosphere. And we dc
j, not always realize how truly
