Preserving Fence Posts.

Experiments and experience have
demonstrated that the lifetime of a
fence post may be extended from two
to four times its natural span by the
use of preservatives. 1t has been
found that cedar and oak, posts will
last twice as long if treated, and the
difference with the softer timbers Is
even very much greater. Tests are
being carried on at the United States
Forest Products laboratory at Madi-
son to determine the possibility Of
using still more of the commonly re-
jected native timbers.

Teacher, l have many rules and pre-

And the master replied, "Nicodemus.
you are trying to save your soul by
good works; by fasts, and gifts, and
sacrifices. This Is not the way. What
you need is not new rules, but new

the kingdom of God"

Contest.

New interest to the membership
contest between the Sunday schools
of the Second Baptist Church and

added by the fact that the Second

up the gap in points made earlier in
the contest.
Five points are awarded for every
new scholar and two for every old
scholar who arrives on time. So keen
is the rivalry that the members Of
