A strong man, who had not been

round loaf lying before him. Francois

The Aged Christian Mother.

To us it is u beautiful sight TO see an
aged Christian mother basking in the
sunset Of life that has been nobly
lived. We visit her at her home.
There she sits--the old Christian moth
grippe for heaven. Her eyesight IL
almost gone but the splendors OF the
Celestial City kindle up her vision.
The COY light Of heavens morn has
struck through the gray locks which
are folded back over the wrinkled
temples. She stoops very much now
under the burden Of care she used TO
carry for her children. She sits at
home today, too old to find ner way to
the house of God but while she sits
there, all the past comes back to her
and the children that forty years ago
trooped around her arm chair with
their little griefs and Joys and sorrows
those children are all gone now.
Some caught up into better realm,
where they shall never die, and Others
out in the broad world, attesting the
excellency Of Christian mothers doc
trine. Her last days are full OF peace,
and calmer and sweeter will her spirit
become until the gates of life shall lift
and let the worn out pilgrim into eter-
nal springtide and youth, where the
limbs, never ache ana the eyes never
grow dim, and the staff OF the exhaust
ed and decrepit pilgrim shall become
the palm of the immortal athlete.
Cultivate habit OF being interested
in noble and beautiful things. Ideals,
aspirations, longings for the high and
glorious things of life are the normal
feeling of youth. Let us carry them
with US through life and they vii help
to kre? us young Put away disagree
able things. put them out OF your
mind and life as soon as possible. II
you loose the illusions OF youth replace
them with the truths of life which you
will find as beautiful and more inspir-
ing Keep envy and malice out OF
your heart. Refuse to be gloomy, dis
contented and morbid. Be cheerful
aud insist upon it in others, or rather,
1t will be unnecessary to insist upon IL.
Nothing is so contagious as cheerful
ness and hopefullness One cheerful
woman can leven a whole household.
Those about us reflect to degree our
attitude toward them. II we believe
In cur children and friends we will find
them becoming more worthy Of our
faith Liberal Kan Democrat.

About Trees and Sand.

Below we print some sensible advice
from sohn Fields, editor OF the OLA
homa Farm journal, in regard to pre-
venting the blowing OF sand, Read III:
Fighting the sand" is steady Job
over large area in Western oklaho-
ma and the Texas Panhandle. Sweer-
ing winds keep shifting the sandy soils
and damaging the crops 1t is in such
places that great improvement can
quickly be brought about by planting
trees. Four wind-breaks running east
and west, cutting the farm into four
forty acre strips, will have n great ef
feet in checking the sweep OF the
winds, and the crops produced under
this protection will be- enough better
to pay good returns from the space oc-
cupied by the trees. These wind
breaks should each be two rods wide
and consist, beginning on the south
side, OF row OF tamarisk hedge set
two feet apart; then row Of Russian
mulberry set eight feet apart; then a
row OF black locust set eight feet apart,
breaking joints; then row OF cotton
wood set eight feet apart as before. 1t
will be we'll 20 have the rows far enough
apart so that cultivation may be given
with the disk harrow without danger
OF barking the trees. All OF these grow
rapidly on sandy soils and withstand
extremes Of drouth. Protected in this
manner, many sandy farms which now
worry the owners almost 10 distrac-
tion, will be transformed and made to
work easily and produce abundantly
Four windbresks like this across a san
dy farm will certainly produce local
"change in climate" that will be per
manent and valuable Start with one
along the south side this year. 1t will
take 1926 each OF yearling. or better,
two-year-old, cottonwoods, black To-
Gust Bnd Russian mulberry trees, aud
1890 tamarisks, and about weeks
work in preparing the land and plant
ing the trees You'll like il so well
that next year a similar strip will be
planted through the middle of the
farm, aud soon after that, two more
af them.

The Banana--A Fruit i'm a
Sterile Package.

With the increasing demand for
fresh fruits at all seasons of the year
has come the difficulty OF supplying
them in condition in which the dan
gers OF contamination are largely
averted. Decay is one OF the limiting
factors in the use OF fresh fruits.
Among the many fruits there is one
which is equipped in its native form
with n protective covering that calls
for more than passing mention. Some
time ago The Journal of the American
Medical Association emphasized the
advantages afforded 10y the banana as
a wholesome food and ventured tn >
suggestion that this fruit, though
growing in popularity, Is still under
estimated in American households.
The banana consists, in its green state,
largely of starch and water. The es-
sential change during the process of
ripening is a conversion of the starch
into sugar. The rate OF ripening is
dependent on the temperature. The
edible portion OF each fruit is packed
away in a peel which serves more
useful purpose than has hitherto been
realized. Experiments on the fruit in
different stages show that the inner
portions of the pulp OF sound bananas
are practically sterile. The peel is
singularly resistant to invasion 10y bac q.
teri. Even when bananas were inn
mersed In fluids containing disease
germs they did not penetrate into the
interior. The probability of infection
through the peel is therefore slight.
though germs 'on the peel might be
transferred to the consumers fingers
and thence TO th. mouth This is an
interesting example of food delivered
by Nature in practically sterile pack
ages. Natures wholesome service
should not be undone by careless meth
ods Of marketing such foods.

Several OF the patrons visited the
Valentine program given in Miss

glad to entertain these visitors, and
desires that others may call when con-
venient.
The attendance has been exception
ally good the past week, and we trust
that this good record may continue.
With such excellent spring weather as
we have been having we should have
perfect attendance, unless 1t should be
absence caused by sickness.
Only three months Of school remains

been extremely satisfactory. Let us

No Inaugural Ball.

And doing all they can to change

Has had the awful gall
To come right out and say ther'd be
No ball.

And by his word he cans
The beauty and the chivalry
or all the social fans
or Washington who make a kick
And raise mighty squall
Because this rank outsider says:
"No ball"
The bobs and nabobs OF the court
Are plunged In blacklist woe,
And like funeral, they say,
viii be the Wilson show,
Because their pomp and panoply
IL changed into a pail
BY him who says that they can have
No ball
Hang Grape upon the ballroom floor
And all the flags half mast,
For by this act is Wilsonized
The glory Of the past;
The sound of revelry that once
Rang clear in Pension Hall
Is hushed and stilled forever now:
That's all.
