WHEN PRESIDENT WILSON
WENT TO HIS KNEES

President Wilson is God-fearing
man. Many times during his admin.
istration this very excellent trait OF
the man in the White House has come
to light, but very recently, upon the
occasion of meeting of the Cabinet
when one big question after the 9th
er, had been put up to the president,
Mr.. Wilson again publicly gave evil
dence of his faith and belief in the
power of prayer. This is from late
issue of the Indianapolis News:
How President Wilson went down
on his knees and led his cabinet in
prayer at a recent meeting was told
here yesterday by Bishop William F..
Anderson of Cincinnati, at session of
the Indiana Methodist Episcopal con-
ference. A United States senator told
the bishop of the incident, he said.
The senator had heard it from one of
the cabinet members, who prayed with
the president.
when the president arrived at the
cabinet meeting" said Bishop An
derson, "his face wore a solemn look.
1t was evident that serious affairs of
the nation were on his mind. He said
to the cabinet members, i don't know
whether you men believe in prayer or
not. l do. Let us pray and ask the
help of God
"And right there the president of
the United States fell upon his knees
and the members of the cabinet did
the same and the president offered a
prayer to God.
"While the war RACES in Europe,
we in this country should thank God
that in this crisis of the world, we
have a chief executive who is a ser
want of God, and who stands with his
hand in the hand of God. Every
minister in the land should every time
he offers a prayer, take Woodrow Will
son by the hand and lead him into
the presence of God, and ask that
he be given strength to continue to
be the great apostle of peace among
men,
There was a chorus Of "amens"
from the ministers. Later a tele-
gram expressing the confidence of the
delegates in him was sent to the presi-
Journal.

When Baby Has the Group.

When a mother is awakened from
sound sleep to find her child who has
gone to bed apparently in the best OF
health struggling for breadth, she is
naturally alarmed. Yet if she can
keep her presence of mind and give
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy every
ten minutes until vomiting is produc-
ed, quick relief will follow and the
child will drop to sleep to awaken in
the morning as well as ever. This
remedy has been in use for many
years with uniform success. OBJ

Those Tired Southerners.

A radical newspaper writer in the
course of a periodic attack in a New
York newspaper on a great business
institution of the South, allows him
self to speak of "The South, where
men, women and children are tired"
We think of Washington, the Vir-
gilman, as renowned for his adven-
turous youth as for the sustained Wig
or of his maturity.
1t was in the Virginia Legislature
that Patrick Henry's fiery eloquence
lit the torch of national independence.

dashing cavalry exploits in the Rev
olution, won the name of Light

calls IAN irregular, harassing war

six years after the organization of the
Unied States government, the presi-
dency was held by natives of Virginia

That Southerner, Andrew jackson,
who followed them, was never suspect
ed, either before or during his eight
years in the presidency, of being

New Orleans was ascribed more than
to any other cause, to Jackson's "al
most frenzied energy"

SONG OF THE CARROT.
TributeAto a Modest Vegetable the
Poets Have Neglected.

Poets Have Neglected.
Why does no poet arise to sing the
song of the carrot, the hardest worked
vegetable in the kingdom? Much is
said in favor of the plethoric pump
kin. the gathering Of corn is COM
monplace theme, but the poor carrot
has been neglected-yes. even scorned.
For diversity of use the carrot has
pumpkin and corn backed over the
garden wall. Men feed carrots to cat
tie, increasing the dairy output. They
feed them to other stock sometimes,
improving its temper. A carrot arti-
fcially followed with a knife makes
an elegant japanese vase. Sufficiently
hardened by harsh contact with the
world. carrot may be used for a
weapon. either operated like a mallet
with handle or hurled like Russian
bomb.
Carrots are sometimes even used for
food by human beings. They are a
chief ingredient inv vegetable soup.
Mixed with butter they improve its
color. They make better pumpkin pie
than pumpkins themselves. Served as
Hubbard squash they make one wonder
why squashcs were invented.

Pump Now Working

The following from our Wood

trouble they had to g e t their

"The pump that we got from

that it will do better now and
that our trouble with it is over.
In the first place there was not
pipe enough to bring the water
out into the ditch and this had to
be obtained at other places, and
when the pipe came it was an
inch smaller than the other. 1t
was however patched up. Then
the pump was set wrong and had
to be moved; and, again, the belt,
an old one, was not strong enough
and the pump could not be run
to it's full capacity. A new belt
was ordered and we thought our
troubles were over but in a few
hours after one of the pulleys
that the belt ran on, which was
broken to start with, gave away
when a new arrangement had to
be made for the belt to run on,
and then the engine had to De
