Nothing less sacred than this love OF

G. A. R. tho Conservator of Peace.


The Grand Army of the Republic has
been one Of the greatest conservators Of
peace because Its members realize more
fully than any one else could the cost
of war both in blood and treasure The
wounds and disease contracted by them
in the civil war are ever present re-
minders Of its cost. They would havo
been ready to have sacrificed much be-
fore engaging in such another struggle
They have been the leaders of all
movements tending to higher patri-
otism and loyal service to their
country. They have fostered and
encouraged every effort looking to
more loyal citizenship. They have
taught the world lesson in fra
ternity extending not only to their
own members, but to the men of the
south who fought against them, and
believe they have done and are doing
more to reunite the two sections of our
country as patriotic American citizens
than any other agency or society.

,: Willie.

l was taking luncheon with a friend
who has a little boy about three years
old, relates a writer in Harper's Maya
zine. AS a very specias. favor, and to
please me, his mother allowed him to
come to the table, telling me that she
could not promise that he would, BE-
have in. the proper manner, ais she had
never tried him before.
The bright little fellow behaved very
we'll through the first part of the
lunch, and his mother was feeling
quite proud of him. When the dessert
came on the table, and proved to be
ice cream, his favorite dessert. the
small boy wanted a second help. This
his mother would not allow him.,
IF you don't give me some," he said.
"Ill tell on YOU" -
His mother still refused, and the
yOungster called out:
IF you don't give it to me before
count ten, I'll tell. One, two. three,

to suppose that you who are in good
health will necessarily take them. To
be constantly distressed lest one day
or another you or l shall be menaced
by scarlet fever. or smallpox, is very
needless and quite units us for doing
our daily work. .5
This courage that I have been talk.
ing about thus far is purely physical.
I would not like any girl for whom l
cared to be afraid to cross the con.
tinent or the ocean. because sometime
might happen on the rail or on the
sea. The ship is the captains bust.
ness and the railway train is in charge
of the conductor and engineer. You
may be reasonably sure that the aver
age man will fulfill the requirements
of his position and you as a. passen-
ger have nothing to do except to enjoy
yourself. This, too,- belongs largely
to the realm of physical courage.
Now I want to speak about a higher
kind Of courage. There are brave peo-
pie who never shrink from danger that
menaces the body, but who are moral
towards. They are afraid to speak the
truth If the truth will injure them
selves. They are afraid to endure
anxiety about their loved ones. They
hide from their own eyes things they
do not want to see. Whatever else
n may be, one should try very hard
to be morally brave. At any cost, be
true and noble. Let me quote for you
Charles Kingsley's stanza which every
girl should know by heart:
BE good, sweet maid. and let who Vs., ce
clever,
Do noble things, not dream them all da,
long.
And SO make life, love and the great tor
ever
One grand, sweet sorg."

FALL WHEAT RAISING
IN ALBERTA.
The Spring Wheat Areas Are RAPIDLY
Increasing.

1t Is only a few short years since
the impression prevailed that a large
portion Of the Canadian West was un-
fitted for agriculture. To such an ex-
tent did this impression prevail that
districts larger than European prin-
cipalities were devoted solely to ranch
ing purposes, and focks and herds
roamed the ranges. But the agricul-
turist was doing some hard thinking,
and gradually experiments were made,
slowly at first, but surely later on. AS
a result, to-day In Southern Alberta,
which was looked upon as the "arid
belt," large quantities OF the finest
winter wheat in the world are now
grown, and so satisfied are the farm
ers and buyers that the industry has
passed the experimental stage that
elevators by the COZ have been erect
ed in the past two years and others
are in course Of erection, to satisfy
the demands that will be made upon
them in the near future.
Manitoba mo. 1 Hard" spring wheat
has achieved a worldwide reputation,
and there can be no question that ere
long "No. 1 Hard" winter wheat from
Alberta will attain similar repute.
The great market for this production
will undoubtedly be the Orient, and,
with Increased railway facilities and
the erection of additional elevators and
Touring mills, a largely increased acre.
age will be , broken to winter wheat.
The increase of population in South
ern Alberta in the past year has been
largely@duesto settlers from the United
States, who have brought in capital,
and enterprise, and who have been
uniformly successful In their under
takings. A few more such years Of
growth and turkey Red" winter
wheat will wave from Moose Jaw to
the foothills. Information regarding
lands in the Fall and Spring Wheat
belts may be obtained of any Canadian
government agent.
