Mr.. John Beal: Am sending
you $1.00 for the Message. We
can't do without it, it grows
better all the time. My boy is
quite interested in " The Call of
the Cumberlands''. We are
having fine weather out here now,
tho another month of rain is ex-
pected. Apricot and Almond trees
are in full bloom. Planting garden
and flower seeds is the order of
the day. Plenty of the earlier
varieties of vegetables now on the
market. We like the climate and
most of the people we have met
here and it is a nice place to live
but land and taxes are too high.
Was sorry to hear of the death
of Mr.R.P. Tinsley. He and my
father were friends and neighbors
in my younger days. When read
ing from old friends to the Mes
sage we wonder what has become
of Bro. w. H. Hook and his
interesting letters. Wishing the
Message and all our old friends in
Audrain county good luck and
prosperity.
Your friend, r. l.. Davis.

A LESSON LEARNEn

William Fraser was standing on
the rear Of a street car smoking a
cigarette. The car stopped for a
passenger. 1t was Williams pastor.
Noticing that William tried to hide
his cigarette, he said to him: my
boy, will you do something for me?"
Eyes SIR" said William, wondering
what he would ask. Take into your
mouth" said his pastor, "all the
smoke you can from that cigarette
and then blow it hard against the
surface Of your thumb nail. DO that
twice" He did so and his pastor
took his hand and from his nail
scraped brown substance. "That
is nicotine poison, my boy, and If l
were to give this much to your cat
1t would kill him" Once more he
asked William to fill his mouth with
cigarette SNAKE, and this time he
held up soft handkerchief and told
him to blow the smoke fierceIy
through It. William did as he was
told and the result was hole in
the handkerchief.
Now, William" said his pastor,
you see how you are treating your
self with every breath Of smoke
You viii soon be poisoned and your
health win be destroyed" The boy
hung his head, but his pastor cured
him OF the cigarette habit. VIII this
true story be lesson to every boy?

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Some Views end Interviews

A. H. Moore: That luncheon
at Mcmillan High was a most en-
joyable affair. Prof. Pryor's
statement that statistics show that
young women who have graduated
from the schools in Domestic
Science have been able to save
from one-third to- one-half the
cost of living in their homes be-
sides conserving better health for
all for whom they cook, was al
most unbelievable to me. That
being true all of us better take to
a little study of Domestic Science.
H. A. Knigge: l live near
Hallsville. Once resided near Mex
leo. l am preparing now to move
to Western Kansas. Regret to.
leave Missouri but think 1 can do
better by the change. 1 must have

Whisky is a good thing in its
place. There is nothing like it for
preserving man when he is dead.
II you want to keep a deadman put
him in whisky; if you want to kill
a live man put whisky in him.
j. o. Sims: Ihave 50 acres of
wheat. 1t looks fine. A few chinch
bugs alternating around. Well
burn good many of 'em out
when the grass and weeds get dry
A. H. Ketter: Pm out on the
farm again. They've put the job of
roadOverseer on me too. I'll get
along all right. There's an old
saying which l try to follow, find
a way or make one.
John Byars: l rather enjoy
that man Burch's preaching. left

MastOn W Beamer: Cutting
ties on my farm for the extention
of the electric railway from Mo-
limo to Santa Fe. Can't do any
thing toward placing the ties until
the weather becomes favorable.
Will have to put on another car
when the line is finished to accom-
modate passengers. Come out
to see me, Mr.. Editor, and we'll
get aboard for Santa Fe and go
fishing and drink pure H2O on the
banks of Salt river.
E. B. Keith: Domestic Science
is great big accomplishment for
the girls. If it is really as valua-
bic as claimed, every young wom-
an should be a graduate in that
department of our schools. But l
am not unmindful of the best int
erests of the boys of Mexico. They
ought to have a great big public
place where they can meet for
recreation and to while away an
hour socially. Mexico needs a
gymnasium and an organization
something like a YIN CA. where
any young man or visitor to our
city may find a welcome and a
home for the time being. The
High School building, it seems to
me, is the place for this work to
start, and maybe to stay.

The new Union church build
ing is nearing completion. 1t is
going to be as fine a church as
any little town in the State has,
and some of the large towns can
not compare with it. A church
like this in a town and the coun-
try around is worth more than
any one has an idea. The Union
Sunday school, while the church
is under construction, meets in
Doolin's Hall, and it's a sight to
see the classes and teachers
working. When we can go into
the new church, with the room
we will have, we will have in this
town something everyone should
be proud of. Everyone should
help make the Union church and
Union Sunday school the best in
the state.

for protection from the cold too,
but he got two of them caught

PECULIAR COINCIDENCE
One of Interest in Connection With
Baccalaureate Sermons.

A coincidence of considerable in
terest has developed in connection
with the commencement season of
the Oskaloosa High school. On Sun
day last while Rev. w. II. Perdew of
the Central NJ. 4. church was deliv-
ering the baccalaureate sermon to a
class of fifty-three, DIR. J. w. Somer-
vile of Wichita, Kansas, and former
ly OF Oskaloosa, was delivering the
baccalaureate sermon at ST. Paul's
M. +. church, to a class of one hun
bred and eighty-five from the Wichita
High school, his oldest son, Earle
Temper Somerville. being a member
of the class. They have their gradu-
ating exercises on Thursday evening.
at the same hour that we have ours
in Oskaloosa. They have a popula-
tion of some 60 900 and a class of 1856.
Oskaloosa with a population of lit,
tie more than 10000 has a class of
SO and following out the same ratio,
Wichita should have had a class of
over 800. This year the class in Os-
kaIoosa is larger and that of Wichita
is smaller than usual.
