It Is Good to be a Southerner.

We people in America are indeed the
favored of the gods, and none more so
than those of us who live in the south.
There is indeed much to suggest the
idea that here in the South, with our
rich natural resources, kindly climate,
democratic ideas, the absence from us
of fashion mad, idle-rch class of de-
generates, our old-fashioned ideas of
morality, and our growing freedom from
the enervating effects Of Temperance
and idlenpss, we shall grow leaders who
will not only make the South great,
but win leadership in the Nation At
large. And in bringing about this re-
suit. upon no class does so much depend
as upon those next t. the soil.-Clarence
Poe, in Raleigh, N. c., Progressive We
Farmer,

E99E BOUQUETS
FOR MOTHER" !"

! enjoyed Bro. Diapers article in
last weeks News on Mother, and
feel that we all cannot say too much
in praise of Mother, the one who new
er tired of caring for us when we
couldn't care for ourselves.
Although time has scattered snow
flakes on my dear old mothers pure
brow, and plowed deep burrows on her
pale cheeks, she is still very sweet and
beautiful to me. Her sweet lips have
kissed many tear from my childish
cheeks. Today her eyes are dimmed
with age, yet they glow with a rapt
radiance of holy love, which can
never fade When the cold, unfriendly
world frowns and says harmful, hate
full, hurtful things of you, 'tis then
the mother will advise, "Act well
your part, there all honor lies. The
degraded youth can never enter a pris-
on whose bars are strong enough to
keep mother out. They can never
mount scaffold so high that she can
not ascend, too, to kiss and bless in
evidence of the deathless love. When
Others shall disnersa and forsake you
when you are left to die by the way
side unnoticed, that dear old mother
of yours is not ashamed to pick you up
and carry you home, telling you of all
your virtues until you almost forget
your soul is disigured by vice She
never forgets nor forsakes We should
love her tenderly and cheer her de-
clining years with holy devotion.

Federal Expert
Finds Solution Of
Pulp Problem

WAUSAU. Wis. Nov. 13.-The problem
whether a commercial grade OF paper
can be made from native woods, other
than spruce. for the solution of which
the United States government has ,estab-
lished in this city a laboratory, said to
be the only one IN the country OF its
kind for conducting experiments, has
been partly solved, according to an
nouncement by ]. H. Thickens, who is in
charge of the local laboratory, and the
answer is in the affirmative.
Experiments have been going on for
more than a year Tests OF pulp manu-
featured at the laboratory have just been
concluded and are reported highly salts
factory The previous tests were not as
satisfactory as the last one. which has
proven conclusively, as MI. Thicken's an
nounces, that It is possible TO make
ground wood from hemlock and jack pine
and mixtures of these woods with spruce,
which will be Of high enough quality for
the manufacture of a cheap grade of
paper such as news and wrapping papers.
He adds that one of the mills of the state
already has commenced to use the mix
ture of spruce and hemlock for the manu-
facture of paper. He thinks II Will not
be long before the hemlock and jack pine
will be used quite generally, for spruce
is scarce and growing more expensive.
