B0YHo0D SCENES REVISITED
Rev. VIM. Wakeham now of Cairo,
Egypt Revisits Denison. Has been
Engaged in Mission Work.

Right from the shadow Of the pyramids
Rev VIM. Wakeham returned on Monday
to revisit Denison the scene of his boy
hood days and to pay loving tribute at the
grave of his father in Oakland cemetery.
1t is more than twenty years since Mr..
Wakeham left the farm place north Of
this city and during the greater part of
that time he has been engaged in mission
work. His head quarters now are at
Cairo. Egypt but his work takes MIN all
through the fertile Nile Valley among the
teening, ignorant and superstitious peo-
pie of the land of the Phaarohs Mr..
Wakeham tells US that in Cairo, city Of
GOO 900 people, one may live with Jail
the comforts of modern life although
prices are high. In the interior it is
difficult to find Injuries, comforts or even
what we consider necessities. ninety per
cent of the people are y ohamedan.
There are villages of ten thousand peo-
pie where hardly person can read or
write. Mr.. Wakeham has been in
Egypt about three years, he says the
Arabic is very difficult language and al
though he can make his wants known and
has vocabulary sufficient fer ordinary
travel he is far from considering himself
an Arabic scholar Since the English
occupation Egypt has been enjoying a
boom. Financially and commercially the
country is in good shape and the people
are busy. He showed US acipping from
the Egypt Gazette, giving an account of a
land sale of nearly 5000 acres where the
average price was over $500 per acre.
1t would seem from this that
Horace Greeley's advice to the home
seeker, to go west still holds good.
Egyptian winters are delightful, but the
summer season is excessively hot. Lower
Egypt is the Nile Valley Into this narrow
strip are crowded the millions of the pop.
olatiop and on either side il the almost
fimitless desert. Above the cataract of
the Nile j. the Soudan, region more
sparsely settled, but now rapidly opening
up. Through systems of dams and reser-
voirs the area made fertile by the Nile is
being extended. and much ofthe desert
reclaimed Some of the $500. per acre
land in the sale mentioned was reclaimed
and. Mr.. Wakeham says he finds much to
do in establishing schools and churches
and trying in other ways to bring the ma.
tives to better life While in Denise n
Mr.. Wakeham was the guest of Mr.. M
E. Jones.
he left on Monday evening for New
York. On July 5th he sails for Europe,
will spend some weeks on the continent
and will then return to his Egyptian
home.

for the program, and there should be
star for every day. The week. should
be combined Fourth of July. street car
nival and Chautauqua. There should be
grand parades and fireworks, and every
thing that pertains to the making of
great and enjoyable aud, at the same
time, obstructive week. The week of
Jubilee would cost not less than $4,000.
Denison would get back every penny of it
in the immense crowds that would be
dawn, in the splendid advertisement it
wo aid. give the city for year to come.
and in the good will the successful carry
ing out of such a program would gain for
our merchants and business men. We do
not believe it would be difficult to raise
the amount named, providing compe-
tent committee is selected, the stock made
PAYABLE in ia stallments as the work pro-
crosses and every business man made to
feel that there is something doing that
will be worth the money. If Denison can
raise $500 for the ordinary street fair,
and 5000 and over for Fourth of July
celebration. it could certainly raise IS, 900
for collosal Jubilee week that should
overshadow anything of the kind ever
given in Iowa before. 1t can be done and
done to the great credit Of our city and of
our business men. The opportunity is
ours, shall we accept it? IL we do we
will make 1906 mark new era in the
growth and progress of Denison. =.

DolNes At MISSOURI VALLEY.


Missouri Valley is smaller town than
Denison. 1t does not compare with Den
ison in wealth. but it is carrying out an
enterprise this year that puts in the shade
anything of the kind Denison has ever at
tempted.
The something is Chautauqua be-
ginning July 1st The opening gun is
Joseph w. Folk, the great reform COVER
nor of Missouri. July 4th will be made
notable by an address by the renowned
Charles ] Lands of Indiana, one of the
most eloquent men in Congress. July 5th
will be Bryan day, great drawing card
for many. July 9th will mark the appear
ance of Capt. Richard P. Hobson of Gu
ban War fame. 1t is now announced
that Lawson. the famous Lawson of fren-
zied Finance. will close the course July
18th This, of course, is not the COM
plete program, far from it; every day is
filled with good things by great lecturers,
singers and entertainers Missouri Valley
should have splendid patronage to repay
it for its effort.
The point Of al this in relation to Den
ison is, that such things can be accom- :
plished if the right measures are taken
and taken in time. Next year the new
court house will be completed and ready
for occupancy. The dedication should be
made grand affair. 1t should be the
signal for such a festival as Denison and
Crawford county has never known before.
1t should be an intermingling of oratory
and wisdom and amusement and down.
right fun for all. Not a catch penny
show, but genuine celebration, repre-.
sentative OF the wealth and intelligence Of
the county. Now is the time for the for
nation of stock company within the
Commercial club, TO cooperate with the
board of supervisors to bring such cele-
bration about. A strong executive COM
mittee should re appointed; stock solicited
to be paid in installm ents; .the supervisors
should be asked to cooperate: program

A forcible example of the need for
an international parcels post arrange
ment is furnished by recent expert
enee of Frederick Upham Adams. In
furnishing some material for an arti-
Gle in Tom Watson's Magazine on the
very subject of the parcels post, he
wrote 70 various public men in Eng
land with whom he had arranged for
data on his last visit TO that country.
Most of them, knowing that the
United States alone had no interna-
tional parcels post agreement, sent
their documents by mail at the higher
rate, but the Mayor of Liverpool sent
his six-pound package by the English
parcels post. 1t crossed the Atlantic
ocean for As cents. To go from the
steamer to Mr.. Adams uptown home
il cost 80 cents. Part of this latter
expenditure was due TO cost of Gus
toms broker, which, however, the
parcels post arrangement will obviate.
Forty eight cents for 5000 miles and
IS cents for three miles-the latter
rate being nearly 1000 times higher
than the former.

To most people self-oontrol means
the control of appearances and not the
control of realities. This is radical
mistake, says a writer in Leslie's
Magazine. and must be corrected if
we are to get clear idea of self-con-
troll. and if we are to make fair
start in acquiring it as a permanent
habit II a man is ugly to me, and l
want 30 knock him down, and refrain
from doing so simply because it.would
not appear well, and is not the habit
of the people about me. my desire to
knock him down is lstill Apart of my
self. and 1 have not controlled myself
until l am absolutely free from that
interior desire. So long as 1 am in
hatred to another am in bondage TO
my hatred; and if, for the sake of APP
pearanoes, l do not act or speak from
IL. am none the less at its mercy,
and il will find an outlet wherever il
can do so without debasing me in the
eyes of other men more willing than
l am to be debased. Ny selfish desire
to injure the man may be counter
balanced by my selfish desire to stand
well in the eyes of other men. There
can be no true self control so long as
either form of selfishness dominates
my actions. The control of appear
ances is merely outward repression,
and very common instance of this
may be observed in the effort to con-
troll a laugh.
