A MESSAGE FOR THE BOYS
With GUNS AND SLING.SHOTS
What We owe The Birds

Do you know that we could not exist
without the birds? No, of course you
do not, because only those great scien-
lists who have made a life study of
the subject know the indispensable
part which the feathered creation per-
forms in the economy of nature and are
able to tell us how and why this earth
would soon become a barren waste if
the birds were exterminated. While
we admire their beautiful plumage and
are cheered by the charming music of
their songs, far too many of US regard
the birds as doubtful blessings. Just
because the hawks kill few chickens,
the crows and few other kinds of
birds do some damage to certain kinds
of crops, and the robins and a few
other birds take toll of our berries and
small fruits, we magnify the compar-
itively little damage that they do be-
cause we see it, while we fail to appre-
ciate the inestimable service which
they render us because we do not see or
understand it.
Just consider these facts which we
all know: Every form of vegetation,
plant, tree, bush and vine, has its special
and peculiar insect enemy, and some of
the most useful plants and trees have a
number of such enemies. A single in
sect will lay thousands of eggs hidden
in out-of-the-way places. 1t is con-
tinual struggle to prevent these millions
of insect pests from getting the upper
hand and destroying the crops or even
the plants and trees themselves, and
without the assistance of birds our best
efforts would utterly fail
Scarcely any animals destroy insects
or insect eggs and grubs. Nearly al

TOUCH YOUR LIPS WITH GLADNEss.

Are you growing weary of the long and
rugged road,
Weary of the burden, oh, my brothers?
Men have found the surest way for
tightening the load
Is just to try to tighten it for others.
Hearts still hold the most of love that
most their love bestow
On lonely lives of those who are for
lorning;
Roll the stone from out the path where
tired feet must go,
And touch your lips with gladness
every morning.
Touch your lips with gladness and go
singing on your way,
Smiles will strangely tighten every
duty;
Just little word of cheer may span a
sky of gray
With hopes own heaven-tinted bow
of beauty.
Wear a pleasant face wherein shall
shine a joyful heart,
As shines the sun, the happy fields
adorning;
To every care-beclouded life some ray
of light impart,
And touch your lips with gladness
every morning.

TEACH CHILDREN TO SWIM.

If the child was compelled to learn
to swim, more than half of the drown
ings would never occur. Incidentally
swimming involves cleansing process
which is not undesirable. But its pri-
mary usefulness is that it prevents
drowning. Children should be taught to
swim as surely as to walk. 1t is in
human nature to learn, and. when
young to learn easily. More than one
half the drownings reported from the
summer resorts are of young persons
who have never learned to swim. The
art of swimming is easily acquired,
especially by children. Those who have
mastered it declare that life has few
more pleasurable sensations than that
which creeps over the body at play in
the water. Every muscle is brought
into activity and the man or woman
tastes the joy of pure animal sport.
Drowning is quicker death than
most people suppose. lnsensibility is
said to begin in about one minute, and
fatal Inconsistencies generally super
venes in the neighborhood of two min
utes. Few. even practiced divers, can
remain under water more than a minute.
and-a-half. and it is generally fatal tc
remain beneath the surface longer thar
that. At Navarino, where there are
many expert divers who plunge into
the sea after sponges, not one was
found who could remain under water
for two minutes. In the Red Sea tn,
crab divers generally remain down one
and-a-quarter minutes, while at Ceylor
the pearl fishers can seldom stay below
for even a minute.

social We in America, it is hoped,
are neither Turk or Bohemian.
Don't think it is your mission to be a
matchmaker They are not made, and
those that are born are not needed
The Little God" hasn't much to thank
you for but quiver of broken and
missent arrows. 1t is pity the busy
bodies can't know what is really thought
of them.
If some thoughts were spoken, they
would be politely told to politely hold
their tongues, to stand back and quietly
look on for a while. They would be
surprised to see how well they were
done without, and how things turned
out so very different from their
prophecies.
An incident comes to mind, one that
is not alone. An intellectual and social
young girl, speaking to a trusted friend
said, with tears in her eyes, why
never heard of such thlng--such ridicu-
lous talk-why l didn't even know
Arthur and were good friends, hadn t
had time to find out, but do know we
were a help.to each other, we had many
interests in common, and it happened
that in our work and endeavors l was
strong where he was weak and vice
versa, SO Of course we could help each
other. ] never had such a thought,
why Floral really but seldom saw him.
How can people be so foolish? There
was no ground for ''talk"-such ridicu-
lous talk. 1t is worse than foolish, it is
wicked, for they almost make me detest
them. Why, ! can never meet Arthur
again feeling the same degree of
friendliness and helpfulness, for of
course he has heard it all, and you
know he is modest, sensitive, retiring"
This is only one incident where all
the world loves to make a lover at the
expense of destroying a friend. A good
friend is preferable to a poor lover.
Ada Jones, a leading vaudeville star,
gives good advice in her song, "Let it
Alone" as she says, ''You don't know
those People. Let it alone" These
young people may or may not have
married; If they had it would have been
one of the few MARRIAGES truly safe and
profitable. One of the few, and why
the few? Because a work of time;
because you do not give them time
except to cote" as we Southerners
says, and not much for that
Seriously, isn't there after all but one
kind of true marriage. as all should be?
If you are trying to bring about this
kind you are making a mistake, you are
not needed. God works there. IL you
are trying to bring about any other
kind are you not committing sin? We
need to think on these things, and as We
ponder We may find that we are worse
than match-makers- mischief makers.

9 WOMAN HAS TWO SOULS,

Women have two souls, perhaps
more, according to President G. Stan
ley Hall, of Clark University. Boston.
He gave this as the explanation of
the 'ickleness" of woman, of her
"erratic methods of jumping at con-
clusions. and her intuitions" in his ad-
dress on ''Pshycotherapeutic's" before
the graduating class of the College of
Physicians and Surgeons.
woman is much more susceptible
than man." he said. ''There is a good
reason for this. We know that she
has two or more souls. She may
love and hate at the same time
and the same person. She may
say and think that she is sick or
well when the reverse is really true.
1t means simply that one soul is in the
ascendency. These two souls may be
absolute strangers to each other but
they certainly exist. We have proved
it beyond the shadow of Doubt

To have toiled upward through the
barren years,
To have had courage to contend with

tors song
Was justly thine, lest it should reach
the ears
OF the great grieving host of van
quished ones;
Showing Christ's mercy to the puny

That would have kept thee from the

All these are victories, OH worthy

But to have battled bravely, and have
failed
Yet, failing, stood undaunted to the

sailed;
Conquering self, beneath the chasten-

Behold victor worthy of his God!

PROTECT GAME.

EultOr OF the llmeS-DlSpatcn.
Sir:-Will you please call the atten-
tion of those interested in game pro-
lection to the great havoc played by
dogs running loose during the breeding
and nesting season of our game?
Your columns have carried many let
ter from sportsmen in all parts of Vir-
ginia complaining of hawks, foxes and
other game-destroying creatures, but
little has been said on the subject of
the dog.
The common yellow cur is very active
just now breaking up quail nests and
killing young rabbits; early morning
and late evening he gets in his deadly
work.
Settlers, pointers and hounds are just
as bad, or worse.
A simple inexpensive, humane way
of confining dogs during hot weather is
to string wire as long as convenient,
put several rings on it Gf to be used
for more than one dog,) tie a stout
cord, or one strong enough to hold, to
the ring and to the dogs collar. If you
have branch or water course, you can
run the wire near it and the dog can
get water.
Calculating that the average dog de-
stroys one quaiPs nest and catches one
half dozen young rabbits in a season,
multiplying this by the number of dogs
in community, some idea can be form
ed of the Importance of confning ouI
dogs during the summer months.

species of land birds (the English SPAR

insect eggs and grubs, and are hunting
them from sunrise to sunset in every
nook and corner of garden, forest.
orchard, field and air.
If the birds were wiped out of exis-
tence the insects would multiply with
such rapidity that in very few years
every green thing on the face of the
earth would be destroyed; and it goes
without saying that not only human
beings but all the land animals would
perish also.
The crows more than make up for the
damage they do by the millions of in
sects which they devour. The hawks
and owls destroy many times more field
mice than chickens, and the robins.
, though they eat some small fruits and
berries, and the bobolinks which con-
SINE some rice and small grains, do far
more good than harm.
Comfort urges its readers to protect
the birds, especially at this time of
year when they are rearing their young.
Teachyour children to value and to love
the birds. Encourage them to observe
and study the habits of the birds, and
above all take care that they do not
disturb their nests.
The practice of hunting birds nests
and collecting eggs cannot be too severe
ly condemned. Besides, in most, if not
all the states, it is forbidden under pen
atty by state law.-From Comfort" !"

A CHANCE FOR HARMONY

James A. Garfield secretary of the Interior sailed
from San Francisco Monday for the Hawaiian Islands.
On his return he will visit the Umata Irrigation project
in Oregon which he states is progressing satisfactorily
and will be rushed to completion as soon as possible.
While in Oregon effort should he made to get the
Secretary to visit the Klamath project and make a
thorough inv :sgation of conditions here This would
give the Directors of the Water Users Association OPP
portunity to straghten out matters connected with the
work here which have been causing dissatisfaction
some of the members We believe this msunderstand-
ing is the result of lack of knowledge the part of the
farmers to what is being done, and the the
matter is Strengthened the better it will be for the
success of the project.
If the proper authorities could induce Mr. Garfield to
here these problems could be laid before him and
solution arrived at In order to insure
is imperitvey necessary that the land and the
Reclamation Service work in harmony We believe
Project Engineer Murphy will unite Avith the Water
Users in persuadng the Secretary to here every
delay will tend to widen the breech caused by the lack of
knowledge on the part Of the land owners. Mr.. Gar

ton and every pressure should be brought bear to get
