Life Without Bitterness

In an active life like mine one Is
brought face to face with stiff, dog
matte, censorlous, unreasonable
people. 1t is easy to say rough and
sharp things about them and to them;
and one is tempted to resist Them to
demoish their certainties, to show
their lack of reason.
But one wins no victories that wav,
because the only victories are when
one persuades and attracts and en-
courages. Then you can, perhaps,
make people see what Is beautiful and
good, and find more things to love.
But when you argue and controvert,
the only thing you win Is a little ad-
miratlon for your skill, little terror
of your tongue.
So l thought that would hence
forth only try to praise and bless
what / thought worthy of love, and
that " were met by controversy l
would argue, If argued at all, with
good humor and amusement, not with
bitterness, not to wound. Because
bitterness really betrays a little touch
of fear. 1t only means that you can
not trust the beautiful things to win
by their own beauty and sweetness.
and you try to maui your foe because
you are afraid that he may damage
you If you do not anticipate him.
Life is so short, and yet there is so
much to admire and love and be in
terested in, that these ugly tempers
are just waste of time andstrenGth.
By Yielding to them you only increase

The many loads of lumber hauled
out of Liberal by the farmers during
the last few months is proof positive
that Seward county and trade terri
tory adjacent thereto will shortly be
filed with substantial homes and
farm buildings. Whenever man in
vests a good pile of money in erecting
a farm residence he is more than apt
to figure on occupying it for years to
come, and it also shows thrift on his
part in accommodating enough to build
the same. Modern conyenienceS are
drawing the towns and country clos
er together and more harmonious
spirit exists today between the farm
err and business man ever before.

lin Banner, which might be applied
to conditions around Liberal: THE
Banner has been aware for some
time that there is too much reckless
ness displayed by drivers of autos
and motorcycles on the streets OF
Bucklin, but has refrained from say
ing anything, as we thought possibly
it was none of our business. How
ever. there Is going to be serious
consequences II something is not
done. Several times we have seen
accidents narrowly averted and one
OF these days the penalty will be paid
with human life. There is reason In
all things, but II anyone would run
a horse through the streets at the
pace set by some machine drivers,
the public would 60 hog wild. Espe-
cially Is the nuisance notable In
turning corners. One can never tell
whether a car is going to turn long
or short corner, and II 1t is going at
a good clip 1t is dangerous to try to
cross until 1t passes. A little more
or few fines would be
the proper thing"

A few "puFely personal" items
taken from last weeks issue of the

A number of people are wondering
why some arrests were not made In
Beaver Sunday for drunkenness.
Perhaps the arrest was overlooked
for fear Of embarrassing the Official
organ OF the democratic administra-
tion." Why not treat EN- all alike?
Red" Kennedy of Forgan, who
has been confined In the county Jail
since last week, when he was ar
rested on a charge of transporting
liquor for illegal purposes, was re-
leased on bond Tuesday. His case
will be tried at the next term of the
county court.
Lon Ford, who was arrested some
two years ago on a charge Of con-
Quoting a gambling house at Forgan,
and who was released on bond, said
bond being later declared forfeited,
and he was returned to the county
Jail, was tried before County Judge
j. "A. Spohn last week without jury
upon his own request. Judge Spohn
found that he was guilty as charged
and assessed fine of 500 and SEN
fenced him to thirty days In the
county jail. At this time the fine
has not been paid and Ford is serv-
ing time.

POINTS ON RAISING CALVES
Good Shelter Should Be Provided
Furnish Abundance of Alfalfa
Hay-Give Some Grain.

Give the calves shelter, but this
need not be too tightly built. A shed
open on the south with yard so they
can go in and out as they please is
about the thing. Bed this down nice
ly with some straw.
Fix rack so they can pull the hay
through the Stats and not waste it,
and keep this full of the finest, green
est alfalfa you can get. A mixture
of crushed oats and crushed wheat
or Of oats and bran will be good for
them.
II you are buying young calves not
yet ready to wean, feed them twice
a day on sweet skim milk, warmed
up to the temperature of fresh milk.
If they are very young, feed them
three times day, quart or three
pints at time. After they are
month or so old you can give them
a gallon each twice day.
Calf meal OF similar preparations
are very satisfactory to replace milk.
Keep mixture of dry cornmeal bran
or other ground grains where the
calves can get it as they wish. Keep
the pens clean and let the calves have
plenty of air, light, sunshine and pure
water,
