70 HONOR FATHER AT LAST
Movement Under Way to Place Neg
Iected Parent on Pedestal and
Strew Roses at His Feet.

At last poor old father is to have his
day. For these many moons we nave
been singing the praises of mother-
and deservedly-and telling OF what
dreary world 1t would be without heF'
and all the while father has been
standing around as unnoticed and as
neglected as the bridegroom at the
wedding. He has been looked upon, or
rather tolerated, as a necessary evil
Indeed, he has been spoken or, In some
quarters at least, in terms OF reproacu
and derision. We all remember the
beautiful ballad which blatantly called
attention to the fact that everybody
toiled but poor old dad. The refralh
of that song was taken up everywhere,
and the enthusiasm with which II was
sung by all sorts and conditions OF
people would lead one to suspect that
the author had made a remarkable dis
covery, which he was only too glad 10
share with the world.
Now all this Is to be changed and
dad is to be placed on pedestal ana
flowers laid at his unworthy feet ana
verses recited in his honor. The req
rose has been selected as an appropri-
ate emblem for father, and on one day
In the year. everybody-or nearly eV-
erybody--is to wear that flower In or
der to let the world know that, In
spite Of all his faults. they dearly love
the old man. This Just and proper
recognition has been long while In
coming, but now that 1t Is at hand
there seems to be a disposition to do
It with a whole-heartedness that Will
atone for past neglect. The only one
who will not quite understand 1t Will
be dear old dad himself He will do as
he is told, q course, but we venture to
say that the movement Is going to
make father scratch his head In won
der. II not in delight.

The governor said that the wheat
and oat crops of the state, taken as
a whole. are above the average. In
some parts corn was not successful,
he said, but in the central portion OF
the state alone more corn will be

crops which will be the largest ever
raised and which are being encouraS-
ed because of their hardy nature.

governor said, and more acreage ana

Ornaments Last Longest

Ornaments last longer than any
thing else that man makes. There are
brooches and necklaces in museums
more than 40 centuries old. Monu-
ments, perhaps. stand second. and
houses third The life OF furniture Is
shorter still There is very little fur
niture in England which dates be-
yond the year 1900 Pictures last long
er than furniture. and there are paint
ings still in fair condition which have
weathered six centuries OF life.

The Mexican stamp bears the coat
Of arms of the country, an eagle on q
cactus, holding a serpent in its talons.
This device is the outgrowth of a
legend that the first Aztec settlers
chose the site of their city from seeing
an eagle so engaged, and situated at
that spot.

Harm Wrought BIZ Free Beer.

Some Of the older Insurance compa-
MES of England used to dispense beer
free to their employees. A drunken
orgy took place every afternoon.
Those clerks who did not want the
free beer left theirs for those who did.
One man told how he thought nothing
Of drinking sixteen glasses one after

free beer system was ended the an

class plumb bling establishments in our

was urged to give the heating and
plumbing contracts to outside parties.

enough for me. There are no jobs Of

modest private residence or in big

the most modern sanitary heating and

done on honor. He has the exclusive
agency in Lancaster for the Moline

When amusement is combined with
educational features, then the value is
unquestionably great One of the
most popular forms of amusement to-

when properly conducted and subjects
carefully selected, it may be made a
valuable means of education. Old

nection l want to say a good word for

songs are sung by home vocalists and
the accomplishments are played by

presented each evening. Reels are
