would quickly bring the money fiends
of the world to their proper senses
and would Immediately establish
business confidence throughout the
land.
The ready cash distributed
throughout the country to railroad
stock and bond owners would make
money more easily available for all
other legitimate lines of business and
would put final quietus upon those
financial croakers who would like to
force upon the public a further ac-
ceptance of their WORKOUT, piratical,
monopolstic practices.
This Is a new day. 1t is the day
which has been prophesied Of old,
when all things shall be made new;
it is the day when the devil, in the
form of human greed, must die 1T is
the beginning of a new world era
wherein truth, justice and downright
business efficiency shall rule all
things.
The men who cannot see this be-
long to the past, for the time for a
change has really arrived. Let the
government buy, own and operate
the railroads, buying them one at a
time, and at actual value. Let this
be one of the first steps in bringing
about the new order of things.-Louis
Agassiz Damon.

WOULD PUSH IT AHEAD


Editor Day Boek:-The proposition
to push the clock ahead permanently
one and one-half hours is worthy of
every ones support. 1t means getting
home beore dark in the winter, and
fresh, bright mornings in the sum-
mer. There will be less artificial light
used, with the result of smaller light
bills and more people with good eye
sight.-Francis r. DuIane, 7015 Yale.

ECZEMA ON BACK AND CHEST

Pierson, N. Dakota.-"The eczema
started on my scalp. 1t finally went
on to the back Of my neck, then on to
my back, arms and chest. 1t broke

to run together in some places, max
Ing a sore about the size Of a dime.
At times the itching and burning were

The more I scratched it the worse it

discharge from it, especially on my
scalp, SO as to make my hair matted

Need for Teamwork Among Churches.
From the Universalst Leader.
If all of our church forces were well
harnessed, and hitched to some specific
thing worth while, and all pulling in one
direction. there can be no question but
that we shoul get there! This is true
of the church at large and of the local
churches. But we are such an indie
pendent lot, and while some of us are
firm" others are stubborn" We nave
some good horses for our UNCONVENTIONAL
team, a few of them are balky, but most
ly they are all right. and are eager to get
into the harness and pull. There will be
no more difficulty when someone sets
before us the great a~ll-inclusive object,
and we get down to our work. But there
is a first essential; and that Is a great
deal of self examination. Generally we
are SO sure we are all right, and that the
other fellow Is all wrong. that there is
very little hope of our getting together;
why not consider tina. it is no farther
from our gate to his than it is from his
gate to ours? And why not grasp and
hold the thought that his work, though
1t may not be in our range either Of doing
or appreciation, is truly a part of our
work. Let not the light leaders despise
the heavy wheel horses. for both have
their place when there is a big load to
move, and a long way to so.

But billboards," he said, bring

staged a meadow with chewing-gum

Simple Remedy Destroys
Boil WseviI.

q. NJ Manor, a planter near
Yazoo CITY, Miss, mas discovered
what seems to be an absolute
remedy tor the Boil Weevil, by
means OF which be made SPLEEN
did crop last season IN a badly
injected boil weevll section. AS
planters are very much afraid OF
serious damage by the weevll here
this year, II would pay to sit up
and take notice OF this SIMPLE
remedy which is said to be SO Ell
fective. The following paragraphs
from the Pine Bluff Commercial
give the necessary instructions.
Mr.. Manor's plan was to attach
to ali the plows as soon as the
cotton is ready to work, gunny-
sack or other heavy cloth saturated
with the following mixture; Lubri-
eating oil, one gallon, moth balls,
one pound, boil together and add
one pint OF tar and mix with five
gallons OF coal oil.
The sacks are saturated with this
mixture and attached to the single
trees, and as the blowing is done,
the sacks drag automatically over
the plant. The fumes OF the mix
ture are very obnoxious to the
weevIl and as the fumes stay on
the plant long time, the pest will
not attack the plant. As the crop
IS plowed frequently, the fumes
stay on the plant from one pillow
ing 10 the next, so that the plant
IS thus made immune from the
raNaees OF the pest,
As evidence OF the success oi
the plan, Mr.. Manor made ~
bales OF cotton the last season with
four families, while his neighbors
who relied wholly on the govern
ment cultural methods OF picking
and burning the squares, made
only az bales, with IL families anc
three wage hands.

Revival in Progress.

The revival meeting which Is
beng conducted by Rev. w. n

attention among all classes OF PEG
pie IN Dermott. The attendance
at all the meetings is excellent, the
tent being filled almost to its ca
pacitv each evening, and SUNDAY
evening many lett because they
were unable 10 secure seats.
Rev. LaMance Is an enthusiast
tie worker and an able and tear
less speaker. and his ability &c
hold crowd IS beyond ques-
ton. Considerable interest has
been manifested in response &c
various invitations. and all arr
hopeful of big results before the
meeting closes, Every effort l,
being made 10 break through the
religious apathy which seems tc
be prevalent In the South, anc
which IS certainly apparent in Der
mott.
The music led by chorus di
rected by Mrs. LaMance IS an en-
ioyable feature OF the meetings
Occasional solos 10y Rev. Sage anc
Carl Helmstetter have also added
much TO the evening services.
Meetings are held each evening
at eie ht o clock and each morning
Except Saturday and Monday a

arrangements are to be commended
tor their dauntless spirit IN putting
up the tent as often as necessary
and their consideration OF the

Baseball.

Dermott is having its inning at
the great national game, and we
have noticed with no slight degree
Of complacency the really compe-
tent playing Of our local nine. TO
be sure there are those who are
inclined 10 underestimate the
sport, but they should remember
that all work and no play makes
Jack dull boy" and that Base
ball has not only gained nation
wide recognition as the great Amer
lean game, but that American
games played abroad have caused
many tavora Ole comments by for
eign periodicals. Among these
is the following paragraph from
The Field published IN Lon
don:
There was never such catch
ing and fielding, such quickness
and power, shown on field OF
grass by players with ball. Ii
was lesson TO the crlcketers, 1t
was lesson to all sportsmen,
Just as England mas taught the
world her games, so America has
taught the world future develop
ment, another stage in their evo-
luton. America s contribution to
the development OF sport is typi-
cal OF her civilization. n each
athletic pursuit IN which Ameri-
can mind and muscle have i'm
proved execution and tactics, it Is
the quality OF the American genius
that IS the prime factor.
