Grange Meeting.-The regular quarter
" meeting of Montgomery County Orange
No Z, was held April Both with Dayton
Grange, in Howard county. The busy sea
son prevented as large an attendance as
usual, but we had very interesting day
Officers for 1908 and 1904 were installed by
W. st. Master Ager. Mrs. K. II. Patter-
son presented the idea of having cooking
and other domestic sciences taught In the
rural public schools as well as the city ones
Miss Jacobs, Director OF the Department of
Cooking in the Washington schools, has
been going out to the College Park school
where they have one teaching seven grades)
one afternoon in the week, with such mate
rails as she can carry in hand bag, to show
the children the"why aud wherefore" of vari-
Gus domestic matters, and there is no reason
why one teacher could not go from school
to school in county at very little add
tional burden upon the school system, but
with the ultimate result of greatly improv.
ing the conditions aud comforts in many
homes.
Director Patterson read q very interesting
and valuable paper on "What the Expert
ment Station is doing for the farmer" DR..
Augustus Stabler read paper on the proper
rotation of crops for small farm. He fully
believes that farming pays even with the
methods now 10 vogue, and ii will be a
much more certain business when the same
system and care are given TO ii as TO other
callings. Locust beans make good feed for
chickens, and he advocates planting trees
all around the farm, since grass grows right
up to the trunk, aud it is the cheapest way
10 get posts and fire wood. Brother Mar.
gerum read paper on Postal Savings Banks
showing their feasibility and practcability
where they have been started. He was
asked TO tell at next meeting what neces
sity there is for them among farmers, and
why we should favor their establishment
W. Lecturer Talioferro was asked 10 tell
why he selected some ears Of corn for seed
out of local crib. He said the grains were
long, wedge shaped and much closer to.
gether than the round grains Of another ear
apparently the same size, and weighed
ounces more. He liked grains that show
most Of the hard fnty structure when split
as they are richer in protein. Next meet
ing at Rock vile in July. Sec'y.

tendent Of the Free Delivery Division, TO

on the charges made that officials 10 the Free

able infoI nation 10 the great department
stores 10 large cities This information, It
was charged by the local dealers 10 towns
having the free delivery service, gave the

il seriously affected the local business
Whether or not any proof has been found
10 the investigation that the managers Of
these department stores paid any postoffice
official for this information no one 10 the

not watch the focks by night in mid
winter nor were taxes given in until
about April. Be that as 1t may, tho
good Christians of the third century,
the fathers of the church, met and
made it movable festival to be held
in April or in May. But a hundred
years later ST. Cyril had the pope and
the priesthood to meet and fix day, a
day certain, and after long consulta-
ton the 25th of December was agreed
upon by the majority, and the rest con-
Cured. Not because any of them be-
lieved that was the true anniversary
of the Savior's birth, but because that
Gay would better suit the masses CT
the people.
But, my young friends, Christmas is
q time for love and kindness, time
for peace and good will. - is q time
to give gifts and make little presents
and to brighten up~the homes Of the
poor. This is better than fireworks
and noise and is far more appropriate
to the day. The wise men brought to
the infant Savior gifts-costly gifts,
and if we have nothing else to give,
we can certainly give a smile to those
we meet and wish them a happy
Christmas-BILL ARP. in Atlanta
Constitution.

oapsized as it was approaching the

Ensign Babcock leading, swan a
mile through the water which was
infested with sharks. The search
lights OF the warships did not dis
cover the operation. Ensign Bah
cock and his men were congratu-
lated on their courage. Rear
Admiral Evans feet will abandon
Subig bay Monday and come to Ma

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

The prodigal robs his heir; the miser
robs himself.-Bruyere.
mob is the scum that rises upmost
when the nation boils-Dryden.
Laughing cheerfulness throws SUM-
light on all the paths of life.-Richter.
Opportunity, sooner or later, comes
20 all who work and wish.-Lord STAN
icy.
No thoroughly occupied man was
ever yet very miserable.-L. Z. Ian
Ion.
Obstinacy and vehemency in opinion
are the surest proofs of stupidity.
Barton.
Life is made up OF little things. 1t
is but once in an age that occasion is
offered for doing a great deed. True.
greatness consists in being great in
little things.-Parker.
1t is often that a man fails to sue
coed because he does not follow up a
hrst advantage; and it is often that
he loses because he follows a first adj
vantage too speedily and too strongly.
-Talmage.f
Other things being equal, the en-
ployee who is selected for Advance
ment is the one with good manners, a.
fine, gracious demeanor, good pres
ence; these qualities are the best kind
OF capital, even better than money.
Success.
We cannot ask a better point of
leverage from which to move our little
fragment Of the world toward truth
and goodness than the point ON which
we have been placed. All that made
saints and heroes of old strong and
full Of trust is as near to us as it was
to them.-Henry Wilder Foote.
A foolish consistency is the hobgob-
lin OF little minds, adOred by little
statesmen and philosophers and di-
vines. With consistency a great mind
has simply nothing to do. He may as
well concern himself with his shadow
on the wall. Speak what you think
now in hard words, and tomorrow
speak what tomorrow thinks in hard
words again, though it contradict
everything you said today.-Emerson.

president; George G. Ward, vice
president and general manager, and
the other officials of the Commercial
Pacific Cable Company are greatly
pleased at the completion of the

Pacific .Company's cable to Hawaii
was connected through to San Fran
cisco at 0:43 p. IN. Honolulu time.
The cable will open for public bust
ness on Monday morning, January

to have the gable completed on the
first day of the new year, because it
fulfills our promise to congress.
Rapid progress is being made in the
manufacture of the sections to be
laid between Honolulu and Manila
and over $500 miles of this cable
have already been manufactured. |
