Mountain countries seem nearest to
God, and It is an especial privilege
to bring their people near to God.
The missionary Is publisher. AS
eagealy as the newspapers spread
abroad bad news, he makes public
the good news.
Our nation owes so much to the
Southern mountaineers that "the eyes
of all the nation should be watching
out for their welfare.
Our missionary. host has mighty re-
enforcement. with God for vanguard
and God for rearguard!
The Southern mountaineers are
found chiefly in North Carolina, Ken
lucky Tennessee and West Virginia.
This region is 500 miles long and $50
miles wide, with a population $4,000
OF 2,657,497.
About two millions Of these are
mountaineers, whom Walter II. Page,
a Southerner, calls "The Forgotten
Men"
They live in extreme isolation and
great poverty, farming in an exceed
ingly rude fashion. They are an un.
schooled people. and Ignorance and
immortality always go together.
Yet they are descendants of Scotch
Irish Presbyterlans, deeply reverence
ing the Bible, and naturally of strong
and sturdy characters From their
stock came Andrew Jackson and
Abraham Lincoln. They were most
efficient fighters in the Revolution,
and they were a tower of strength to
the Union in the Civil War.
The degeneracy Of this noble race
came from their isolation. They are
out Of touch with the world of thought
and progress, and It is this, with the
pure gospel which makes 1t all possi-
ble that the missionary brings to

Electrical Light For Tropical birds.

One of the difficulties encountered
by keepers of aviaries in geological
gardens is the providing of a proper
environment for birds brought from
the tropics. To warm the air to a
tropical temperature is not enough.
The birds demand light as we'll as
heat Many of them in their native
homes are accustomed to feed at sum
rise and again just before sunset, and
their habits In this respect are seri.
ously disturbed by the shortness OF
the winter days In northern climes.
Recently It has been found very BEN
eficlai to keep ayiaries containing
tropical birds brilliantly Illuminated
In the daytime with electric light
from O'Clock In the morning to
o'clock in the evening, thus closely
Initiating the duration OF daylight to
which they are accustomed In their
natural habitat. The result is that
they feed In the normal WAY. live
longer and remain In better condi-
tion. Youths Compaaien

How to Grow Large onions.


1t is the ambition of every cultivat-
or to raise largo onions. The only
way Of growing them to an immense
size is to start the plants indoors and
set the seedlings in the open when
the ground becomes tillabie In this
way one can raise onions as large as
the Bermuda and Spanish varieties.
In fact many of the so-called i'm
ported onions are nothing more than
homegrown bulbs produced by this
method. The variety known as Prize
taker does not look unlike the Span
ish type and 1t is equal to 1t In mild
ness flavor, size and color. Good
seed should be secured and sown ear
ly in boxes in the greenhouse or hot
bed' When a hotbed is used the
boxes are not necessary although
they are convenient at transplantiiig
time, since they can be taken directly
to the field before the plants are
removed
The seed must be sown rather
thickly in rows half inch deep and
three inches apart. When the seed
lings are large enough thin them to
stand half an inch apart in the row
30 that stocky plants will be pro
duced. The soil in the seedbed should
be very rich and OF light texture to
insure a rapid. unchecked growth
In growing the plants give them
plenty of air, but do not allow them
TO become chilled during the early
stages OF growth. II they are KEEP

RAIDED STORE
FATAL STAIN MADE BY BOOT
THEIR UND0ING.
Grocer overestimated Loss-Took choco'
late and Clipped Beef, but Not
Lobster or Chicken.

Detective Sergeant Fohs succeeded yes
terday In discovering the five boys who
entered Frank weissbord's grocery store
at Dickerson and Second streets Tuesday
night, while the latter was attending a
Yom Kippur service In a nearby syna-
gogue, and according to the grocer's story,
they took S2S from q cash register, six
teen pounds of chocolate. Clipped beef.
condensed milk and canned chicken. They
were Martin Theobold, 10 years old. Of $50
Orange street; Henry Tindell, IA years old,
of SO South Eighth street; Louis a SAINT,
15 years old. of 70 First street; Raymond
Pennington, IA years old, of 121 North
Second street, and James Murray, ID years
old, of 14S North Second street.
The prisoners were a%rraigned in the Sec
ond Precinct Court today. Weissbird
could not satisfy Judge Herr that he had
left 1928 or more in his cash register or
that the BOYS had stolen $42 worth OF
groceries. weissborn said that he found
the silver coins that he left in the register,
but not the bills.
The judge had the grocer itemize the
goods stolen and give the prices, until the
$42 worth dwindled down to less than S..
When the boys were asked what they
had to say they objected to the canned
chicken and canned lobster being charged
to them, but admitted taking the chocolate
and Clipped beef. After giving the quintet
a severe gruelling, the court paroled them
In the custody of their parents for the
upper juvenile court.
The boys had effected an entrance TO
the store by taking a wire screen out of
a bedroom window, and then had walked
to a bed with a white spread on 1t, and
1t was by the imprint of the soles of rub
Der boots worn by one o fthe boys that
Detective Sergeant Fohs learned who the
boys were.
