Mrs. Little Makes Interesting Talk
"The League in Your Town" was
the theme discussed by Mrs. Maude
B. Little, State Organizer and de-
partment editor. She dwelt upon
the hindrances in League work. The
first of these is undue appreciation
of the motto, "All for Christ" An
other hindrance is the lack of knowl-
edge. Lack of leaders is another Sc
rious handicap. Another hindrance
is lack of corporations and anoth-
| er lack of finances. she plead earn
estly for the Leaguers to stand 10y
| ally by the church and its institu-
tions, calling special attention to
Southern College, as one of the
| things Leaguers should work and
| pray for.

The Bedbug

Ed Topping and the Tromps and

good people who hail from Kansas
like to recall the days when SOCK,
less Jerry Simpson absorbed a gooe
share of the spotlight in the Sun
flower state.
Senator Simpson amused the ma
ton for long time and kansans
may justly point to him with rs
much pride as to Carrie Nation
Here is one of Sockless Jerry's par
ables which may be applied TO 3
good many men these days:
81 will admit that the bedbug in
all of his religious and family rela-
itons is eminently above reproach,
he wrote. LAS far as l know he
lives life of probity, economy, IN
dustry, and represents all of the
domestic and civic virtues. He is
kind to his children, loving TO his
wife, charitable to the poor, emf
nently a good citizen in every way
My only objection TO him is on nc
count of his official status-in shor
the way he gets his living.

THE PEACE PALACE.

EGHSG TNLHSCs
HIHEY have builded a beautiful palace
l. Beside the wild heart OF the SEA
A pledge before earth and high heaven
OF peace to humanity.
And love was the stone of foundation
Its pillars the honor of kings
Within the white halls of that palace
The spirit of peace spreads her wings
A fair as the dream of an angel.
A Respondent, majestic ii stands
But, alas, for the beautiful palace,
1t is built on the shifting sands!
For the passions of men have assailed II
And around it the storms never cease
They beat in their passionate fury
Against the fair palace of peace
nISHONOR and greed and hatred
IL Have triumphed DER right again
Forgotten the oath of nations
The brotherhood of men.
The fields are reeSins with slaughter.
And the menace of famine and plague
Is among the grim host of the specters
That haunt the fair palace of Hague.
OH, world. you have builded bhndly
" oh. kings, you have planned deceit
For the army of peace defenceless
Has met with a crushing defeat.
For while in those halls you were pleds-
ing,
In that beautiful palace of light,
You were making new weapons for slaugh
ter,
You were keeping your sabers bright
OH, world. you have builded blindly
~ On the shifting words of men,
For not in mere stone and marble
Shall peace come to earth again.
For the Prince of Peace will triumph
When the passions of men shall cease.
And in every heart is builded
beautiful palace of peace.
THEY have builded a beautiful palace
Beside the wild heart of the sea
Around 1t the means of the dying
In the winds cry mockingly
The souls of the vanquished soldiers
And the wraiths of famine and plague
Are among the army of specters
That haunt the fair palace OF Hague,

In the days when the buffalo was
found in vast herds on the western
plains there we're Indians who, while
riding at a gallop, could send an ar

Vegetable Compound is recognized
from coast to coast as the standard
remedy for woman's ills.

FARMING

Letters from Settlers Indicating
Growing Prosperity.

The present year will add another
proof that farming in Western Canada
when carried on with the same energy
and system devoted to other lines OF
business. will bring about results fully
as satisfactory.
Mixed farming as a tocsin has been
sounded for a number of years, and
today it is being adopted pretty gen.
orally throughout the Provinces of
Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta
There are those who have made nc
greater success of it than they did
when they pursued grain growing
alone, but where one has failed to &C.
complish what he had hoped to do,
dozens have scored success.

Thomas Mckay, farmer near Har
disty, Alberta, has this to say about
the country:
Il came to Hardisty from Usage
City, Kansas, nine years ago and took
UP homestead here. This is good
district for the farmer who wishes to
raise grain exclusively, and as mixed
farming country it cannot be beaten
anywhere in the world to my knowl
edge.
Il had ten cattle, which ranged out
side all last winter, and this spring
they were fat enough for the market,
this without being fed but one night
during the entire winter; they were
