making permanent division, it made
permanent union. This nation was
from the beginn ng a spiritual enter
prise, and you ha,e q seen the spirits
of the two once divided sections Of
this country absolutely united. A
war which seemed as if it had the
seed Of every kind of bitterness in it
has seen single generation put bit
terness absolutely out of it's heart.
and you feel, as l am sure the men
who fought against you feel, that
you were comrades even then though
you did not know it, and that now
you know that you are comrades in a
common love for country which
you are equally eager to serve.
This is miracle of the spirit so
far as national history is concerned
which in one sense everybody en-
gagged may take pride. Some wars
are to be regretted, some wars mar
the annals of history, but some wars
annals distinguished, show that the
spirit of man sometimes springs to
great enterprises that are even great
er than his own mind had conceived
"You set the nation free for that
great career of development, of un-
hampered development, which the
world has witnessed since the Civil
War. But for my own part 1 would
not be proud of the extraordinary
physical development of this coun-
try, of it's extraordinary development
in material wealth and financial
power, did l not believe that the
people of the United States wished
all OF this power devoted to ideal
ends. There have been other ma
tions as rich as we; there have been
other nations as powerful; there
have been other nations as spirited;
but l hope we shall never forget
that we created this nation, not to
serve ourselves, but to serve man
kind
Il hope | may say without even
an implication of criticism upon any
other great people in the world that
it has always seemed to me that the
people Of the United States wished
to be regarded as devoted to the
promotion of particular principles
Of human right. The United States
were founded, not to provide free
homes, but to assert human rights.
This flag meant a great enterprise of
the human spirit. Nobody, no large
bodies of men, in the time that flag
was first set up believed with very
firm belief in the efficacy of democ-
racy. Do you realize that only so

"Safety First" Mineral.

Asbestos is potential life-saver.
We do not all realize, perhaps, that
the fireproof theater curtain is made
of asbestos, which is rock matter but
nevertheless almost as soft and piable
as cotton or WOODEN fabric. Asbestos
has OF course many other uses. It's
incombustibility and it's fibrous struc-
ture make il one of the most useful
minerals for many and various struc-
tural purposes. 1t is used in making
lumber roofing, plaster, and stuCco.
Houses that are built largely of asbes-

complete protection from fire because

them also the comfort of freedom

long ago as the time of the Ameri-
can Revolution democracy was re-
garded as an experiment in the
world, and we were regarded as rash
eXperimenters? But we not only be-
lieved in it; we showed our belief
was well founded and that a nation
as powerful as any in the world
could be erected upon the will of the
people; that. indeed, there was a
power in such nation that dwelt in
no other nation unless also in that
other nation the spirit Of the people
prevailed.
I'VE now know and the world
knows that the thing that we then
undertook, rash as it seemed, has
been practicable and that we have
set up in the world government

general conscience and the general
conviction.

Endorse Foreign Policy.
Washington, Sept. 2S.-Veterans
Of the Civil War here for the an
nual encampment of the Grand Army
of the Republic were formally well
coined to the capital tonight by
President Wilson, who told them
their battles so years ago were
fought that the greatest instrument
tality for the uplift Of mankind the
world has ever seen might not be
impaired.
The President spoke amid scenes
of patriotic fervor in the crowded
census building had been converted.
Col. David j. Palmer, commander
in-chief of the G.. A. r., introduced
him amid thunderous cheering and
informed him that the veterans stood
solidly behind the administrations s
conduct of the present-day foreign
problems and that their sons would
support him in any steps he might
take.
The President was frequently in
terrupted by applause as he spoke to
the veterans, their families and
friends. He did not touch directly
on the European war, or on problems
growing out of it, but devoted his
address to the mission OF the United
States, and the lessons taught by the
Civil War. He spoke Of the war as
one of the few in history Of which
both sides could be proud
The meeting marked the formal
opening of the Grand Army encamp-
ment, which will continue during the
remainder of the week, with the
great parade and presidential review
tomorrow.
The Presidents address in part
follows:
'It is a singular thing that men of
a single generation should have wit
messed what you have witnessed in
the crowded SO years which you
celebrate tonight. You took part
when you were young men in a
struggle, the meaning of which /
dare say you thought would not be
revealed during your lifetime, and
yet more has happened in the maxi
ing of this nation in your lifetime
than has ever happened in the max
ing Of any other nation in the life
time Of q dozen generations.
"The nation in which you now
5 live is not the nation for whose
union you fought. You have seen
many things which have made this
nation one of the representative ma
tions of the world with regard to the
moderate spirit of that world, and
you have the satisfaction which
dare say few soldiers have ever had

low each other. In the diagram this
point has been considered in planning
a succession of crops. In some sec
lions three or four crops can be grown
on the same land each year, while IN
other sections two crops are all that
can be grown to advantage. When
crop is harvested early in the season
and it is not practicable to plant an
other vegetable for two or three
months, the land may be planted to
cowpeas or crimson clover. For ex-
ample. after a crop of early cabbage
it may not be desirable to plant anoth-
er vegetable crop until late summer or
autumn. In this case it would be de-
sirable to SOW cowpeas or crimson
clover, to be turned under in prepara-
ton for the fall crop.
Rotation Of Crops.
Rotation of crops is as important in
growing vegetables as in growing field
crops, and the same principles can De
applied. Crop rotation is important in
checking diseases and insects and In
keeping the soil in good condition.
Where diseases are very severe, the
same crop should not be planted con.
tinuously on the same area. Rotation
of crops is one of the safeguards
against soil infection.

or kinds of Ford cars is absolutely

So one day a New Orleans business
man, spending the day in Hattiesburg'
drifted by the Shemper establishment
got a peek at Sister Sarah, and, as
George AIDE might say under the same
circumstances, without fear of con-
tradiction, it was all off with the pair
of them.
Both Sister Sarah and young Stew
enson knew after making several in
effective attempts to secure Mr.. and
Mrs. Shemper's consent to the mar
rage, that such would be useless. So
they took matters in their own hand.
A big touring car, with its curtains
all drawn, chug-chugged down Second
street the other afternoon, the chauf'
feur honk-honked a couple of times or
three, and, in true moving picture
fashion, bit of femininity darted out
the front door of the Shemper store
and around the nearest corner. That
was Sister Sarah, and in less time
than it takes to tell, she had climbed
into this waiting motor car. Seated
breathlessly ON the rear seat was
Young Stevenson. Looking at his
watch, he told the driver to make
haste in hurry. 'Tt's 25 minutes till
that New ORLEANS bound train is due,
