a good one.-[Waterbury Record.

something out of it. Mr.. Rabbit was

aboveboard that even his opponent on
an issue esteemed him just as much as
those who were with him.

ENLIST AID OF CHURCHES
Powerful Weapon Brought to Bear in
the Fight Against Tuber-
cuIosis.

Just how serious a problem tubercu-
losis is to the average church, and in
just what ways pastors are called up
on to minister to those suffering from
this disease, is the subject of an in
vestigation which the national asso-
citation for the study and prevention
of tuberculosis is conducting in con-
nection with it's plans for tuberculo-
sis day on April 80. Statistics are
being gathered from thousands OF
ministers regarding this subject, and
among other figures the number of
deaths last year from tuberculosis in
the church congregation will be given.
1t is planned to place these statistics
together with other educational ma
terial, in the hands of every minister
in the country for his use In connec-
ton with tuberculosis day. Millions
of circulars and pamphlets on the pre-
vention of tuberculosis will also be
issued, both from the national office
and from the headquarters of the $50
anti-tuberculosis associations who will
cooperate in the movement.

ment Over Split Log Drag and
Harrow-UsefuI on Farm.

We recently visited a model farm
and one of the most attractive fea-
lures about it was the condition in
which the roads, both on the farm and
the adjacent highway, were kept by
use of the split-log drag. This is a
matter of real economy, as well as Of
good looks. A visit to another farm
showed a modified device WHICH we
had never seen used elsewhere, and
which is the invention OF the owner
It is SO effective that drawing of it
is shown herewith. 1t is really a COM

The harrow teeth are attached in such
a manner that they can be let down
and the implement used as a harrow

If the teeth are set level with the bot

clod crusher, and it's weight is such

be done by split log drag if time is

AS this implement has value in

from. 1t is at such times that the
men forsake home, abandon wife and
! children, and flee away-to suicide or
! exile.
| There is q generally accepted be-
| lief that husbands desert wives SOLE
| ly because of domestic discord or be-
cause the love of the husband has
waned. 1t can be said in contradiction
of this that while assertions do often
result from such cause, the number
is Insignificant compared with the de-
sertions impelled by inability of the
husbands to support their families in
the style they believe to be absolutely
| imperative by reason Of their social
status.
Comparatively few men," Mr.. Des-
mond declared, deliberately desert
their wives with the intention Of
never being reunited; few plan to re-
main away forever. Most husbands
who flee from city homes recover their
mental equilibrium and wake to a
consciousness of their position when
they bring up amid new surroundings.
Then hope revives. Then courage re-
turns They look around with view
to getting a new start. They plan to
rebuild their fortunes. All this with
the ultimate object of returning to the
old home and loved ones or bringing
their families to them in a new homeq
But with many the castle in Spain
plans go awry; things refuse to work
out right These hapless deserters-
domestic derelicts-move from one
place to another Their habits OF
home life are broken. They become
living, indisputable proof of the old
adage that the way to destruction is
paved with good intentions. They
continue to drift. Perhaps they be.
come sick and die-anyway, they sci.
dom come back they take the count
and are out and in the great roll OF
humanity they are recorded as heart
less wife deserters."
Mr.. Desmond admitted, though that
among the thousands of married men
who fee from city homes there are
quite a number who are prompted by
other motives than social and financial
failure The "call of the Wild" the IT.
resistible "wanderlust" sometimes
leads husbands to forget those who
should be dearest to them and they
ruthlessly break the hottest ties to
yield to the nomadic spirit. Family
quarrels, illicit love affairs and fire.
quently chronic dire poverty cause
men to leave the family hearthstone,
but 1t is the killing social pace OF
this century, Mr.. Desmond insisted,
which is chiefly the dominant factor
in home desertion.
