w. c.. T. u.

The Frances Willard Memorial
service held at the Methodist
church Sunday afternoon was in
deed fine tribute to this match
less leader. The vast audience
alone proved how she yet lives
in the hearts of the people, and
will live for ages to come, for
her work was of the heart as
we'll as of the head, and when
the heart of nation won, t \ e
memory of the winner remains
green as we'll as the cause that is
championed marches on to vic
tory. 1t is beautiful to read in
how many ways Frances Wizard
is honored. A young man of
Boston once came under match
less oratory, and so wildly was
he impressed that he is n W
painting a portrait of her to be
presented to the Public library
of the no-license town of Brock
town Mass.
Memorial windows are con-
stantlv placed in churches that
her life and works may stand
out in all their intensity in the
hearts of the million young peo-
pie are coming, coming, coming
with rushing feet andsfglowinp
hearts.
We think today of the thous-
ands who will see for the last
time her beautiful statue in Wash
ington at the Inauguration of the
new President, and we k n W
many men, as well as women,
will almost her voice repeat the
inscription thereon, as she gave
it to a body of men as they were
celebrating on the WON n
question = which Frances Will
lard termed The human quest

FIGURE THIS OUT

How many miles does man
walk in working one acre of land
in cotton from the time he starts
to clearing up the land until ne
lays it by, the old mode of cultl-
walton, with turning pillow and
harrow, allowing three feet to
row, and giving his land what
work it should have to make an
average crop of cotton? | think
if one will figure it up correctly
he will conclude toathrow away
the old implements and get new
and improved implements towork
with. Progressive Farmer.

PUTS the MANURE SPREADER FIRST

No farmer who has never own
ed or used a manure spreader
can have any adequate idea OF
it's value or what a luxury, so to
speak, it is to own and operate
one of these machines. With a
spreader it is so easy to haul out
the manure and spread the same
very evenly all over the field, and
to do so when it ought to be
done, as fast as it is made and a
load accumulates and there is a
field ready to receive it. | think
more about the value of farm
yard manure, and it helps me to
conserve and to accumulate more
of it than | did before | got a
spreader. Furthermore, mar
ure can be made to go twice as
far, and will do twice as much
good as that spread by hand with
a fork. Progressive Farmer.

Kramer will sail for the old country
on the French line steamer Rochaih-
beau, accompanied by Frank Mihloh.
His first match on his arrival ia
Europe will probably be with Houi-
lier, who won the winter champions
ship of Europe recently. 1t will not
be the first meeting between .ho
American and Frenchman, for they
battled when the worlds champion
coured Europe some years ago. kra-
mer won, and very handily, too, but
Houllier has improved, according to
authority, and will probably be able
to make a much better showing
against the American in their next
clash.
While we are taking off our hats
to Luther McCarty, the new hsavy-
weight champion, let us not forget to
doft our lids also to Lute's press
agent. Said press agent has succeed
ed in making the world think that
McCarty is a product of the wild and
woody West, a cowboy and all that.
This is all very romantic and prob
ably helps Lutte. But the truth is
the new champion Is product OF
Sydney, o., in which town for sew
eral years he dug bitches and cleaned
sewers, while his father sold rattle
snake oil and travelled like the street
fakrs of the old school. Lutte lived
in the West several years, however.
SO the press agent didn't make his
story out of the whole cloth.
