CHAPTER XIII.
DEVIL FISH VS.. BIRD.


When the aeronef was run out On its
ways by the long shed in which it had
built there was a flutter of expectancy
among those so deeply concerned in its
flight. Captain Harrod forgot his periodical
visits TO the hillock TO scan the offing for
the erect periscope or the fishlke back
of the mysterious lurking submarine, which,
like a shark awaiting the dropping over
board of man or other morsel, had haunted
these waters since the day Wiener had been
driven from the camp as a spy. The cap

plugs, screws and the like, which in his
excitement he kept carrying about long
after the machine was ready for its flight
Mrs Stott excitedly took repeated snap
shots at the Psyche, and from time to time
noted down her thoughts on this crisis In
history with a stylographic pen, which she
made careful carbon copies, the usefulness
of which was impaired by their being or
the backs OF the originals, on account OF
Mrs. Stotts having agitatedy reversed hel
carbon sheets.

ent the growth Of the Brotherhood has been
steady and sure. It's ranks have been re-
cruited from the growing number of inn
migrants coming from the old kingdom to
America and from the sons of the original
members. In the quadrennial meeting that
will open Monday I'm the California city
there will be close to 300 delegates. who
will review the work Of the last four years
and plan for the four years ahead.
During the last few days the national
convention of the Danish Sisterhood has
been meeting in Council Bluffs, and the
women in attendance on Friday evening
were rendered complimentary banquet at
Washington hall Omaha, by the members
of the three local lodges, Nos. and 81 Of
Omaha, and No. % of South Omaha. That
the Danish women of Omaha acquitted
themselves most admirably as hostesses
was the verdict Of all the visitors.

or course. Here the order mad its birth IN
1882, and here its headquarters have always
been maintained. The Brotherhood is in
corporated as a Nebraska institution, and
Supreme Secretary J. Michaelsen is re-
garded as perhaps the greatest individual
worker in the whole membership.
The Danish Brotherhood with it's 2S5
lodges scattered from coast to coast is the
outgrowth of an original organization with
four lodges composed of veterans of the
war with Germany that was fought I'm 1864.
The four lodges Of veterans were located
in Omaha, Davenport and Nina, la, and
Racine, Wis, and by agreement they sent
delegates to Omaha in the year mentioned.
AS a result of the conference it was de
cided to have a national society to be
called the Danish Brotherhood, to which all
men OF Danish birth or anteCedents should

WESTEN CANADIANS
A GRAIN PRODUCER
NEVER SAW SUCH FINE WHEAT
ANYWHERE.

Gust. Anderson of Maidstone, Sask,

been in Central Canada tr~ee years.
On January 16, 1910, he wrtes:

q rancher, as my capital was not
large, and with the two oxen brought
with me, broke 25 acres which put
in crop in 1908 and had TO clear some
brush l earned $4,000 by breaking
fifteen acres for a neighbor and dur
ing the summer l put up hay and
hauled timber and put up houses for
other settlers. Notwithstanding a
heavy frost on August 18th, had 221A
bushels of wheat per acre and 60
bushels of oats. OFF 80 acres of wheat
in 1909, l got q bushels of wheat
per acre and 1900 bushels of oats off
20 acres. l never saw such fine wheat
anywhere. We have plenty of rain
between May and August and after
August seldom any but dry warm
days. Water can be had at from 20
to 40 feet and plenty of grass for cat
tie"
The evidence Of Mr.. Anderson is
given because it is encouraging to the
man of small means who is DESTROYS
of lettering his condition. It shows
what can be done, and there is really
but small limit to the man with push
and energy to become wealthy on
Canadian lands. And the grain that
he raises is good. A press dispatch
says:
The quality Of the wheat continues
to be the feature of the deliveries. In
the total of 1878 cars in the February
inspections there were 2,S47 of high
grade stuff, a percentage of S4.2S. For
| January the percentage was 1921, and
for the six months it was $50. This
is an unusually high average, and it
demonstrates beyond the shadow of a
| doubt that the farmers in this part
of the Dominion still know how to
| grow flrst-class wheat. The crop Of
1908 was considered good enough, and
| it's average of contract wheat was
only 70 per cent. Good weather
throughout the season was an impor-
tant factor, of course, in insuring the
high quality of the grain, and it is not
likely that atmospheric influences of
so favorable a character will be en-.
countered for a long time to come.
The best that can be expected is that
a fair average for a term of years
will be maintained.

Civilization and Missions.

There is a question that is larger
TIL an government or trade, and that Is
Il lie moral well-being of the vast mil
Hons who have come under the protec-
Son of modern governments. The rep
fesentative Of the Christian religion
must have his place side by side with
|the man of government and trade, and
for generations that representative
must be supplied in the person of the
foreign missionary from America and
Europe. Civilization can only be per-
manent and continue blessing to any
people If, in addition to promoting
their material well-being, it also
stands for an orderly individual liber-
ty, for the growth of intelligence and
for equal justice in the administration
of law. Christianity alone meets these
fundamental requirements. The
change of sentiment in favor of the
foreign missionary in a single genera
ton has been remarkable.

Young man." inquired her father,
sternly, will you give her home like
the one she has been used to-"
NO." replied the truthful sutton,
for there will be no grumpy father to
come home and make everyone mis-
cradle by his kicking over trifies and
swearing at matters in general. There
will be no mother to scold her from
morning to night for wasting time
merely because she wants to be neat
There will be no big brother to abuse
her for not doing half of his work, and
no little brother to make enough noise
to drive her crazy when her head
aches. There won't be any younger
sister to insist on reading some trashy
novel while she does all the work
She will not have with me home like
she has been used to, not if can help
