IS HELPS
AD0RN THE COUNTRY HOME
Which Would Seem to Be Worth
Consideration.

Too many farmers would rather
have their path from the kitchen or
front door OF the house and the barn
between two rows of corn than to see
a nice bluegrass lawn, nice shaded
trees, shrubs, roses and other beaut1-
full flowers, nicely arranged about the
house. They think it Is for the good
of the families that they utilize every
foot of ground possible for the produc-
ton of corr and other grain, but sure
ly they are therein mistaken. 1t is
no wonder that the young folks on
such farms get tired of the rural mo-
notony and are off to the city. The
ornamentation Of country homes is
nearly if not quite as important as the
production of the pest fruits and vege-
tables.
What is there that could be more
fascinating to children than an abun-
dance of good fruit and beautiful flow
ers? 1t teaches them to observe ma
ture, and when they once learn to un-
derstand more about the beautiful
work of nture they cannot be driven
from their beautiful home in the
country. Never mind about the loca-
ton, for it matters not where you v
or what may be the lay OF your
grounds, you can make 1t beautiful
and interesting by planting the right
kinds of fruits, vegetables and flowers
in the right way and attending to them
properly. Now, don't say or think
that 1t is too much work, for without
missing the time you can make a won
derful improvement II you only set
your head to 1t.
One well-known writer has the fol-
lowing to say on this subject: ut Is
really a pity to see how the young
men are swarming to the cities for
employment when they could do so
much better by staying on the farm,
If they only knew 1t. When | say that
the average farm boy leaves home be-
cause 1t is too monotonous | think |
can prove the correctness thereof with
the statement that there is not one
young man leaves a fruit farm with
beautiful surroundings to where there
are ten leave the average grain farm
where fruits and o~rnamentation are
overlooked. That persistent struggle
for the almighty dollar is supposed
to be for the good of your family, but
l am sure you will succeed much bet
ter in the contentment and he of
your family by changing in
the manner indicated above.'-LoSAD

lations from your own funds, or I'll put

"Why?" urged the president uneasi-
ly.
Because I like you for one thing,
because l love your daughter for n
other, and l do not intend that her
faith In you and her love for the fam
lily name be shaken"
Karl Gardner was right; the presi-
dent had allowed himself to be led
astray by the lure Of high finance.
But stronger than his love of money
was his love for the little girl. his
only child. Yielding to his employees
courage, Mr.. Burns went W. the
whole matter with him, and out of his
private fortune made good the short
age. After 1t was all over, he said a
little %brokenly:
Am l to lose my little grip"
Il hope So" Karl said cheerfully, IF
/ can ever make her forget that l am
not a man given to courageous exhi.
bitions."
"She doesn't think you brave?" Mr..
Burns asked in amazement.
mot in the least, and l can't get
my courage up to flying, or jumping in
front of an automobile and stopping it
by sheer physical strength" here he
laughed as he looked at a reflection of
his slight figure in the plate glass of
the door, land so she thinks me a
coward"
Indeed" Mr.. Burns calculated, but
that evening after dinner, just before
Karl arrived, for it was Wednesday,
he called his daughter to him and said
earnestly:
my little girl, / believe you are
pretty proud of the courage of our
family"
Elsie started to express her EN-.
phatic opinions on the subject, when
he interrupted her.
1--WE both know a real hero, Elsie
and he told her the entire story, SO
that 1t was a very subdued little maid.
en- who greeted Karl later in the eve
ming. For a few minutes he paid no
attention to her mood; then he asked:
What is 1t, Elsie?"
II know everything. Karl, and I am
SO proud of you and your bravery; but,
oh dear me, I'm more insignificant
than ever for l haven't any kind OF
courage whatever"
AS Karl gathered her into his arms
he whispered:
What do you suppose makes men
brave and true, dear? Just their love
for their women, and the longing to
stand high in their confidence and re
spect."

Hostility Fosters Friendship.

The course of true love never did
and never can run smooth. If it did,
it wouldn't be true love. The single
certain sine qua non of true love is
that it shall not run smooth. For such
is the c%ontitution of human beings.
When people set out to be friendly
and congenial, they can succeed only
by keeping up a gentle hostility. Con

tiresome it is until someone starts an
argument, or a game of cards is pro-
posed. That accounts for the popu'
larity of games. They furnish a sham

An eccentric young man after
a somewhat protracted courtship
brought matters to an issue by
writing to his lady love in the
following words: Dear Mamie:

perpleXed. He knew the mean

Let Teacher Do That Sum.

One of the subjects for discus
sion at the meeting of the Lin
coin County Teachers Associa-
ton, held at Brookhaven on JAN
uary 4, was:
In case a class fails to solve
a problem. what would you do?'
Without attempting to offer
expert advice on the subject, or
enter into a discussion of meth
DDS in pedagogy, we would sug-
gest that the teacher solve the
problem.
This suggestion applies, how
ever, only in event that the
teacher knows how to solve the
problem.
Some of 'em don't. At least,
we infer as much from the large
amount of home study work CIV
en- to school children nowadays.

two KINDS Of COURAGE
The Kind Possessed by Karl
Gardner Won.
BY MILDRED HOUSTON HEMlNG-
WAY.

The airship ran along the ground,
then rose gracefully like the immense
bird it resembled, while thousands
watching craned their necks to follow
its fight. One girl felt as though her
heart was dragged out Of her body
and taken up on that dangerous jour-
ney. She did not know the aviator,
had never seer him without his dis
figuring cap and goggles. and yet she
felt as though no one less brave than
he could win her heart.
Elsie Burns came Of a brave family.
Her fathers from the beginning or
American history had fought and con-
quered, and her mothers had borne
their more quiet but none the less
brave parts. The family history, bound
in several cumbersome manuscript vol
umes. was very interesting to Elsie,
and she had pored over it until she
knew the deeds of her family by heart
and painted for an occasion to distin-
guish herself. incidentally she vowed
not to marry until she found a man
worthy a place in this honored ances-
trail biography. Small wonder that
Karl Gardner found it difficult to
please her, for Karl was slight OF fig
ure, not an athletic man, and thought
it more than foolish for a man to risk
life and limb in a pursuit as yet SO
untried.
do we really need to fly" he ask
ed, smiling a little. "See here, Elsie,
here's an article l wish you'd read. It's
on a woman's influence in every day
life. 1 believe in what this writer
says"
ooh, dear" Elsie cried pettishly,
I'm SO tired of hearing what a WON
an can do. Why doesn't someone write
of what we can't do? I want to make
a name for myself. There Is nothing
a woman can do these days. We can't
vote; athletics are practically con-
trolled by the men. Who ever heard
of nice girls playing ball, or running
professio al races or being prize fight

ers? No, don't look at me that way;
l mean it. l want to have some little
bit of influence on the world"
The following morning, Elsie had
skipped over the article, not absorbing
any of it, for her mind was filled with
thoughts of the daring aviator who
was to make another ascent at noon
and long before that hour she was in
the field, watching eagerly for him
In the meanwhile Karl was in deer
waters. AS confidential man in a large
he was placed in a very try
ing position. Inadvertently, he had
come across certain records of finan'
cial speculations of the president
which undermined the safety of the in:
stitution. While his facts had not
been secured through any confidence
his position was such that it made il
very difficult for him to warn the other
officials, and yet, on the other hand
he felt that they too trusted him
Finally he went to the president and
told him of the discovery. That Off
cial vas considerably startled, but
promptly offered Karl a price for his
silence, assuring him that within a
month he could owe all shortages
and the institution would be as sound
as ever. The price was n that might
have proved tempting except for one
thing. The man to whom 1t was Of
fered possessed moral courage in high
degree. He might shrink from the
dangers Of aviation, but he dared to
oppose any corruption even If it re
suited in his own business destruction,
for he realized what it would mean to
make a relentless enemy Of a man as
influential as the president Of the
company. Still Karl was astute or he
would not have held his position OF
confidential man. With a slight laugh,
he said cordially:
my dear Mr.. Burns, you ought to
know me better than that; still,
know you have to try out men. You
know my honesty is not for SALE"
The president fixed his eyes sternly
on the man before him, then asked:
What is your price? Didn't make
1t enough?
The battle was on; It must be
fought with bare hands.
