This Is the Children's Age.

The Woman's Home Companion is
promoting campaign for Better
Babies" by offering cash prizes for baby
shows at which children are judged not
for their beauty but for their health.
Following is an extract from an edito-
rial in the July Companion:
"This has come to be known, by
many, as the Childrenis Age. In the
past half-century scientists and educa-
tors have been giving TO the world big
discoveries that are producing results in
the welfare and wisdom of the new gem
Grafton. Babies hospitals, Child Welfare
associations, Parent-Teachers associa-
tions, kindergrtens, Montessori schools
adj these and many more organizations
attest the growing popular realization
that with the child lies the salvation OF
the nation.
ut has seemed to the Editor of the
Companion that all these discoveries and
researches along the line of sane physi-
cal and mental education for children
and mothers OF children have crystaHized
in the movement for better babies.
There is no branch of child welfare work
TO which this movement is not vitally
important. There is no reform which
it will not help. Better babies mean bet
ter mothers and fathers, better homes,
better cities, better nation, a better
world.
"The Companion did not start this
movement-it merely stepped in and
told people about it. and Offered to help.
That, it seems, was all that was nee
essary. Better Babies is on the tongue
of half the mothers in Ameriea-an ir-
resistibly allring combination of words.
suggestive of curves and dimples and
bright eyes and sunny smiles. And un-
derneath the inviting charm of the idea
is serious scientific purpose-healtly
babies, standardized babies. and always.
year after year, better babies

Friends of the present marshai have circulated petition among inc business men addressed to President Wilson asking his re- annointmcnt as marshal in thls district. His term will expire next July, when he will have served four years. The only objection urged against his re-appointmen' is his Republicanism, while as against this, his friends say--and with ,iustice--that he has made good; that his appointments nave been made with rare good Judg- ment and forethought; that his administration of the office has given satisfaction to the people: that police protection i'll thls dl- vision is better and has been pet ter under his guardianship than ever before.
 It has been announced by Pres ident-elect Wilson that the spolls system is thing of the past; that competent, experienced o1fl- cers of the government will be retained, irrespective of party a1- flliation; that only the good of the nublic service will be his aim m making appointments.
 Many have signed the petition because of the desire to keep m office experienced, faithful ana honest officials who make good.

PERFECTION NOT CLAIMED

With all the grandness of this Grand Booster Edition," it carries with it good quoto of heart-aches from the editor on account of the num- Der of seemingly inexcusable typo graphical errors and "busts" in make up.
 To credit the poem, the Village Blacksmith, to "W H. Lonfellow" is enough to make modification set up in the anatomy of any editor living, but few such errors have gotten by and we have nothing to do but apolo- gize and regret.

No mans name has been more close ly linked with the progress of Green Forest during the past ten or fifteen years than has that of J. B. Reeves.
 If per chance some calamity should befall the town wrecking all the houses Jim Reeves has built during the past few years, the place would look like a double -geared, back-action Nebraska cyclone had struck it full in the face.
 But as builder, the work of Mir Reeves becomes insignificant as con- pared with his labor along the line of development of the coming industry in this country.
 The fact that Carroll county takes first rank as producer of the big, red beauties is due to Mir. Reeves, as he holds the undisputed title as father of the tomato industry.
 It was eleven years ago that he con- ceived the idea that tomatoes could be proftably grown and packed here. His neighbors laughed at him for such silly talk and when he began the erection of a factory of some proportions on his

place, it was suggested that he had gone crazy. So little faith had the people in the success of such an enter prise that MT. Reeves was forced to plant his own crop for the first sea- sons pack, because his neighbors were too doubtful on the question even to be induced to sign crop contract for an experiment.
 But with courage that has never yet given up to defeat or disappointment, Jim delved out by his Lonesome, " cultivating some twenty acres the first season, which he grew with success, and landed some profit against the most serious obstacles.
 After he had demonstrated that by proper fertilization and cultivation even the old worn out lands could be made to yield sufficent crop in one season to cash out the products for more money than anybody at that time would have had the audacity to ask for such land, it was then that the people began to sit up and take notice and from that suspicious time, tomato
