The application OF a gasoline motor
to an ordinary bicycle is not new. but
It Is extremely doubtful IL many OF
the attachments Of this nature are OF
much practical value. As a rule the
attachment involves some more or less
serious and expensive change in the
frame Of the bicycle. The motor
wheel illustrated herewith, on the 9TH

conventional attachments Of this ma.

CLUBS FOR BOYS AND GIRLS
Movement Fostered by Department Of
Agriculture Has Spread to Every
Section Of Country.

One Of the most notable movements
in agricultural education has been the
boys and girls clubs organized In az
ricultural communities for the pur-
pose Of learning to farm by actually
farming. Fostered by the department
of agriculture and taken up in vari-
Gus forms by state, county and even
private agencies. the movement has
spread to almost every section Of the
country.
The boys and girls who belong to
any Of these clubs are building foun-
dalton for future success In farming
which was beyond the dream of the
last generation. They are learning to
do by doing. They are finding out
the fundamental principles Of crop
production In their young and impress
sionable years. and are learning to
work with their heads as well a. their
hands.

and use. The power plant consists
OF a small gasoline motor mounted in
a substantial frame which is carried
on q rubber-tired wheel that serves
as the driver. Above the wheel is
mounted the gasoline tank. A glance
at the illustration will show that the

that 1t is attached quite easily by
means Of clamps to the framework OF

In the March "Woman's Home

titled Money Making Recipes,
which is accompanied by twelve re-
cipes. Introducing these recipes,
Mrs. Farmer says:
Many women have made money
hy the sale Of foods which they
themselves have made and cooked al
home. One woman built up a pro-
ntable business by making and sell
ing Saratoga Potato Chips. while
many have succeeded with cakes,
doughnuts or sweets. In almost
every large city there are Woman's
Exchanges which have a food sales
department. and through these or In
building up an individual business
the sales have been made.
Following is one OF the recipes:

Tell me not in disappointment

For the Church is weak and helpless,
And the Christian prays in vain.
Christ is living, and His visage
Though obscured by war clouds

Shall be seen by every nation.
And all knees 10 Him shall bow.
Not despair and hopeless moaning
Kits us for a better day;
M 10 live a life Of justice,
Practice brotherhood, and pray.
lime is long. and truth wins slowly,
But the present cannon's roar
Is The sunset gun Of battles
That shall soon be heard no more.
In the worlds great field Of thinking;
In the present awful strife;
Be no idle carping doubter,
BE a Christian-live the life.
Show the world you dare be honest
show your faith by works OF love,
DO your part 10 make men better;
Point them 10 the God above.
Let no past however CORY
Fill your soul with doubt and fear,
Gods eternal mercies change not;
Christ the King will soon appear.
All that others suffered bravely
For the cause OF truth and right;
should but make us more determined
That the world shall have the
light.
Make us toll that men in future
May be free from lust and hate;
Die no more in bloody battle,
Reap no more the widows fate.
Let us then be active, earnest;
Filled with faith, and moved by
love,
TIL Gods will is done by mortals,
As lis done in Heaven above.

BOYS FoReoRpAlNEo TO FAIL
Youth Who 10 Spared All Work BY
induiaent Parents 10 on Wrong
Rosd 10 Success In Lie.

We can only wonder at the silly
way In which some men waste their
lives.
One day II 10 a man in Cincinnati
who enters q bank, shooting this way
and that, scoops the money into q
bag while the employees hide, leaps
into q stolen motor car. enacts the
robbery again In another bank, and
at last, when cornered, kills q police
man and Ia himself killed.
Enough OF adventure, excitement
and tragedy to last q lifetime crowded
into a few hours, with murder at the
end.
But what fort The chances Of the
man getting away were 80 remote
that only a fool would have under
taken the Job.
The next day Il is Kansas City.
Two men rob a shopkeeper of dia-
monds and money and try to escape
by running through crowded streets,
a silly and futile thing to undertake.
The end Of their folly will be years
and years Of hard work, hard living,
lonesomeness and heartbreaking mo-
notony in prison.
The man who undertakes to live
by his wits. TO get money without
working for II, is foreordained to fail
ure. And yet there are always men
starting on that road.
In general they are men who failed
In youth to learn the lesson OF in
dustry. They got the idea that the
end OF life was to get on with as little
effort as possible. The boys who are
spared all work by indulgent parents,
who expect everything to be done for
them and to do nothing for anybody
else. are on the wrong road. They
are getting the demoralizing ideas
that are responsible for such wrecks
as come daily to the criminal court.
