WHATS AN EDITOR anyhow?
Real Thing is Missing Link, De-
clares Precocious Essayist.

A little village boy was given
the stunt by his father to write an
essay on editors, and here is the
result:
Don't know how newspapers
came to be in the world. 1 don't
think God does, for he haint got
nothing to say about them and edi-
tors in the Bible 1 think the edi-
tor is one of the missing links you
read of, and stays in the bushes
until after the flood, and then
came out and wrote the thing up,
and has been here ever since.
don't think he ever died.
"I never saw a dead one and
never heard of one getting licked.
Our paper is a mighty good one; but
the editor goes without under
clothes all winter and don't wear
any socks, and paw amt paid his
subscription since the paper start
ed. 1 asst paw if that was why the
editor had to suck the juice out of
snowfballs in winter and go to bed
when he had his shirt wasn't in
summer. And then paw took me
out to the woodshed and licked me
awful hard. If the editor makes a
mistake folks say. he ought to be
hung, but if a doctor makes any
mistakes he buries them and the
people dassent say nothing, be-
cause the doctor can read and write
Latin.
when the editor makes a mis-
take there is a lawsuit and swear
ing and big fuss; but if a doctor
makes one, there is a funeral, cut
flowers and perfect silence. A doc
tor can use word a yard long
without him or anybody knowing
what it means, but if the editor
uses one he has to spell it. If the
doctor goes to see, another mans
wife, he charges for the visit, but
if the editor goes he gets a charge
of buckshot.
when the doctor gets drunk it
Is a case of being overdone by the
heat, and if he dies, it is from
heart trouble; when the editor gets
drunk it's a case of too much
booze, and if he dies, it's the jim
jams. Any old college can make
a doctor-a editor has to be born"

Farm Facts.

(By Peter Radford, National Lee
turer, Farmers Educational and
Cooperative Union of America.)
Those who till the soil are the
chosen people of God.
Farming is as old as the human
race and is yet in it's infancy.
Success is bound to come to the
farmer who plans while he plows.
No civilization has ever advanced
beyond it's agricultural development.
No farmer is successful who
thinks more of his barn than he
does of his home.
The development of the farmer
himself must precede the full de-
valopment of the ground he tills.
The most beautiful fact in the
farmers work is that everything
he plants Is a lesson in faith.
The best farmer does not bother
bout getting ahead of his neigh
u: his great business is to get
We, must give to the people who
We On the farm the same educa-
onal advantages for their chill
rem as those of the cities enjoy.
The country clergy is an agency
o. much potentiality, because the
rural life movement is religious as
we'll as industrial and social.
There should be a social and
an industrial survey of every COM
munity The pastor, the teacher,
and the school and church officials
are they who should make such
survey.
In a recent survey of communi-
ty in New England, the average
annual income of 154 farmers who
has a common school education was
1929, while the average net income
OF 122 farmers of the same locality,
with a high school education, was
$482 annually. This was worth to
each farmer who possessed it $3.50
each year.

That this enactment will. have

tain for two reasons; one that the
