In wantOn's overthrow;
There's nothing left today
But steel and fire and woe.

The old commandments stand
In courage keep your heart.

Unsheathed and uncontrolled.

To meet and break and bind
A crazed and driven foe.

Comfort, content, delight.
The ages slow-bought gain,
They shriveled in a night
OnD ourselves remain
To face the naked days
In silent fortitude,
Through perils and dismays,
Renewed and re-renewed.
Though all we made depart,
The old commandments stand.
In patience keep your heart,
In strength lift up your hand.
No easy hopes or lies
Shall bring us to our goal,
But iron sacrifice
OF body, will and soul.
There's but one task for all,
For each one life to give.
Who stands if freedom fall?
Who dies if England live?

The New Store ut Ovid

Mesrs Saunders and Carroll are
very much pleased with the success
of their new undertaking SO far. Their
stock is not all in yet but they are re-
ceiving new goods daily and expect
to carry at all times as complete a
line of groceries and tobaccOs as is to
be found in Sedgwick County. They
tell us that il their first weeks busi-
ness is any indication of their future
business that they will be more than
satisfied with same and will feel that
the opening Of the new store was war;
rantcd. Already they are receiving
trade from a considerable distance
and expect as their advertising reaches
out and as people come to know of the
quality of their goods and their prices
that they will draw business to Ovid

Must Pay For the Paper

Judge George Thomas of Columbus,
Nebr., recently decided that if man
accepts a paper that is sent him he
must pay for it, The decision was rem
dered in the case Of the Columbus
(Neb.) Telegram against man for
$2.35. The Telegram had been sent to
the mans home and he had accepted
the paper. When called upon to pay
for it he refused and suit was brought
When Judge Thomas heard the evil
dence he instructed the jury to bring
in the verdict for the Telegram
Judge Thomas ruled that the old com.
mon law principle that what man
received and used he was bound tt
pay for applied in this instance.-Fow

PUMP WATER IRRlGATE HERE
II Californians Pump Water I'M Feet,
why Shouldn't We 20 Feet

John Jenik who recently returned
from an extended trip through the
irrigated regions OF the western coast
has decided that his own farm offers
as good advantages as many of the
places he visited. At some of the
truck farms where they were pump
ing water over 200 feet to irrigate
their crops he told them he had d
farm in Nebraska where he could get
an unlimited supply of water at forty
feet and they laughed and asked him
what better layout than that could a
man want. Out there it is not what it
, will cost to get water but the fact that
they can obtain the water any price
that makes land valuable. Here around
Lodge Pole there is an inexhaustible
underground stream that can be rails
ed to the surface at very moderate
cost yet we have lived here all these
years and not taken advantage of our
opportunities. Mr. Jenik's trip has
opened his eyes to the fact that right
here at home we have opportunities
that only need to be taken advantage
Of If people in California and WASH
ington can pump water 200 feet and ir-
rigate land that does not compare with
ours in fertility or smOothness and
by so doing make it worth thousand
dollars an acre, we certainly ought to
be able to raise the value of our land
when we only have to raise water from
ten to twenty feet. He is now plan
ming to put about thirty acres under
irrigation as an experiment and af-
ter what he has seen feels confident
of success.--Lodge Pole Express.

THE NEW YEAR

The NEW EAR
year untried before us lies. We
know that it will not be essentially
different from the other years that
have come and gone from our lives.
We expect some things unpleasant and
shall not be disappointed. Some un-
pleasant things anticipated will not
materialize. However. we could not
wish the planning of our lives. How
much happier our lives would be
could we live above all things that
have tendency to depress and defeat
us This is not impossible by the Cos
pei of Christ Jesus.
There is not half the need of making
new resolutions as there is in paying
forgotten and broken VOWS. We have
promised enough. Broken promises
strew the shore Of our lives like bat
tered hulks cast up by the storm. A
new year is good time to make a new
start and if that start but be the keep
| ing of past resolutions, the Church

be very beehive of activity and
flame with revival.
A dying year brings its note Of sad
ness, but this is fully offset with the
birth of the new. Let all things Of an
old life die with the old year. Begin
the new year with that new life which
is your highest and holiest desire. With
the new year will come new thoughts
new aspirations and desires. May these
have the right of way over all others
To make the most Of the new year
more than mere acquiesence is re
