FARMER RADFORD ON
WOMAN SUFFRAGE

The home is the greatest contribu-
ton of women to the world. and the
hearthstone is her throne. Our So
cial structure is built around her, and
social righteousness is in her charge.
Her beautiful life lights the skies OF
hope and her refinement is the charm
of twentieth century civilization. Her
graces and her power are the cumu-
lative products of generations of
queenly conquest, and her crown of
exalted womanhood is jeweled with
the wisdom of sanity mothers. She
has been q great factor in the glory
OF our country, and her noble achieve
ments should not be marred or her
hallowed influence blighted by the
can chivalry should never permit her
to bear the burdens of defending and
maintaining government, but should
preserve her unsullied from the allied
influences of politics, and protect her
from the weighty responsibilities of
the sordid affairs Of life that will
crush her ideals and lower her stand
ards. The motherhood OF the farm
is our inspiration, she is the guardian
of our domestic welfare and guide
to higher life, but directing the af-
fairs of government is not within wo-
mans sphere, and political gossip
would cause her to neglect the home,
forget to mend our clothes and burn
the biscuits.

RURAL SOCIAL cENTERs

We need social centers where our
young people can be entertained,
amused and instructed under the d.
rection of cultured, clean and COM
petent leadership. where aesthetic
surroundings stir the love for the
beautiful. where art charges the at
mosphere with inspiration and power,
and innocent amusements instruct
and brighten their lives.
To hold our young people on the
farm we must make farm life more
attractive as we'll as the business OF
farming more remunerative. The
school house should be the social unit.
properly equipped for nourishing and
building character, so that the lives of
our people can properly function
around it and become supplied with
the necessary elements of human
thought and activity.

THE COUNTY FAIR.

The farmer gets more out OF the
fair than anyone else. The fair to q
city man is an entertainment; to q
farmer it is education. Let US. take q
stroll through the fair grounds and
linger a moment at a few of the points
Of greatest interest. We will first
visit the mechanical department and
hold communion with the worlds
greatest thinkers.
You are now attending congress Of
the mental giants in mechanical sci
ence of all ages. They are addressing
you in tongues of iron and steel and
in language mute and powerful tell an
eloquent story Of the worlds progress.
The inventive geniuses are the most
valuable farm hands we have and
they perform an enduring service to
mankind. We can all help others for
brief period while we live, but 1t
takes master mind to tower into the
realm Of science and light torch of
progress that will illuminate the path
way Of civilization for future genera
lions. The men who gave us the

work in every field on earth and will
continue their labors as long as time
Their bright intellects have conquered
death and they will live and serve
mankind on and on forever, without
money and without price. They have
shown us how grand and noble it is
to work for others; they have also
taught US lessons in economy and eff
cheney, how to make one hour do the
work of two or more; have length
ened our lives, multiplied our
opportunities and taken toll of the
back of humanity.
They are the most practical men
the world ever produced. Their in
ventions have stood the acid test of
utility and efficiency. Like all useful
men, they do not seek publicity, yet
millions Of machines sing their praises
from every harvest field on earth and
as many plows turn the soil in mute
applause of their marvellous achieve
ments.

Bearer of War Dispatches in Con-
slant Peril.
Letter From French Soldier Relates
Narrow Escapes of Friend WHO
Makes Frequent Trips to
the Trenches.

New York-The danger undergone
BY a messenger carrying dispatches
from the war Office to the front is told
in letter received by Robert Stovold
of this city from his brother in the
French army. The letter says, in part:
George and the duke are also in
the army now as interpreters. They
are with General French and the Eng
lish army all OF the time. Harry is
engaged to take officers with dis
patches from the war Office to the
front three and four times a week
He sees George often.
Three times a week George has to
take dispatches up to the firing line.
This is a pretty risky job and he has
had several narrow escapes. Once he
had to jump out OF his automobile and
lie down for several hours while
shells and bullets went whistling by
over him. Another time as he was
driving along with his automobile
some Germans hiding in the woods
fired at him. Fortunately they missed
him, but several OF the bullets struck
the automobile.
Another time a shell burst twenty
yards from him, but BY miracle he
was not touched He was enYeloped
in smoke, however, the fumes OF the
shell making him feel sick and giddy.
George, however, seems TO think il
great sport.
Harry Colliard in the trenches also
has been in some of the thickest OF
the fighting. He is fighting there day
and night Although he has been in
many OF the bayonet charges, he has
so far escaped unscathed Let's hope
it will always be thus. Bobs brother
has not been so fortunate He was
wounded in the head by shrapnel and
picked up on the battlefield insensible.
He found himself in the hospital when
he recovered. He is nearly well now.
though. and hopes to return soon to
have another smack at those Ger
mans
What a terrible war this is. Bob.
Several Of my very dear friends have
been killed, a few others wounded
and one Is now prisoner in Ger
many. If it we're not for the wonder
full fighting OF the English we would
have suffered more But by the time
you get this letter you will be reading
that the Germans are in full retreat"
After relating the sufferings of the
wounded and the hardships undergone
the writer closes with the words, Il
should just like TO have the job of
shooting that kaiser"

AUSTRIAN BAR IN PROTEST
Object to Restraining Refugee Law
yers of Gaiicia and BukoWina
From Practicina

VIENNA committee OF the Aus
trian Bar association has recently
drawn up vigorous protest against
the enactments of the government re-
straining the refugee lawyers of
Galicia and Bukowina from the prac-
tice of their profession in lower Aus
tria. The representations Of the COM
mittee, which has behind it not only
the prominent lawyers of Vienna, but
of all the Austrian crownlands, re-
ceived instant and hearty Endorsement
from the bar. The Austrian Bar as
ISOLATION repudiated all sympathy
with the illiberal policy of the state
authorities. and by three-quarters
vote Of its members. put itself on rec
ord against the proceedings disbarring
its colleagues from Galicia and Buko-
wilma. Public opinion, too. keenly
alive to the fact that the government
is imposing disabilities on a part of
its population which is suffering for
It's sake, is in emphatic accord with
the stand of the lawyers committee.

HOW THE KAISER APPEARS
Correspondent Writes Pen Picture Of
Emperor as He Sa@ Him
at Front.

Beriin.-A pen picture OF the kaiser

troops in Poland. who says The
kaiser appeared with General Macken-
sen. and passed along in front of the
officers and troops had not seen him
since the time when at the beginning
OF the war he spoke to the crowd from
the balcony OF the castle in Berlin.
For one moment had formed the
impression that he had become ter
ribly gray in the campaign. That,
however. was an error, which arose
from the fact that his head protector.
which he was wearing owing to the
extremely cold weather, was gray.
The supreme war lord appears, on
the contrary, extraordinarily fresh and
elastic, even though the seriousness
OF these last months has left marks on
his features, and a certain bitterness
which formerly was not present comes
into his voice when ne speaks.

thinking of the kaiser parade in 1895
on the Spandau drill ground. How

how confident in the future and vic

The First Tumhiers.

The glasses we now know as tum.
blers differ widely from the drinking
vessel to which the name was first APP
piled. These appear to have been of
metal or wood, and from their peculiar
shape seem to have served as per.
petual reminders to pass the bottle.
One authority says they were called
"tumblers" because they could not be
set down except on the side when
empty; and another derives their name
from their original shape, rounded at
the bottom SO that they tumbled over
