KICK OF AUTOMOBILE
BREAKS YOUNG MANS ARM

Leo Weeks was twenty-three years
old Monday, and late that evening he
came to town after his father Fred
Weeks, who was serving as a grand
juror. Leo has been driving a car
for sometime, and thought while the
roads were good, that he would give
his father a quick trip to the fireside
at home. But as he went to crank
the car to make the homeward jour
ney, the engine baked and refused
to start. Finally he got "backfire"
and the crank flew back with such
force on his arm that the bone in the
fore arm was broken just above the
wrist. He was taken to a surgeon
who rendered the necessary treatment
The car later was started without
trouble and Mr.. Weeks returned home
but Leo was passenger instead of
the driver. Heretofore the automo-
bile had given no signs OF trouble and
Mr.. Weeks is at loss to know just
how the accident really happened. 1t
brought his birthday to a rather I'M
pleasant close, but if no unforeseen
complications arise, he will speedily
recover from the accident. which all
are pleased to know was of no serious
character.

The comparisons of the Bible are all
with simple things, but none are more
effective, none more beautiful, than
those which link the humility of man
to the glory of God with the powers
of nature.
In the imagery of autumn there is
something sombre. Calamity cometh
on as whirlwind, we read, and Il
have blotted out, as thick cloud,
their transgressions and as cloud,
their sins" The rain of fall is not the
early rain of spring which covereth
the valley of weeping with blessings,
but the later rain which watereth the
earth The dancing of brown leaves
in fantastic procession and the whirl-
ing dust before the storm bring to
nostrils, sick with the city's odors, a
breath of that sharp, tingling air
which makes life glorious and love a
lovely thing.
The city in autumn takes on new
features and drapes herself in fresh
garments. Over her embattled sky
scrapers the setting sun throws
strange colors and the pavilions of
the clouds bank in grandeur. The
snap, the keenness of vitality, all
about all.
After year of tragedy and disas-
ter, one looks upon the autumn as an
omen of better and Drawer things.

CHILDREN AND CHRISTMAS
HELPFULNESS CONTINUED

Iowa school children would have
the Christmas spirit of helpfulness
last over into the next year and are
putting themselves on record in new
line of work-salesmen Last
year nine year old julius Peters sold
one quarter of all Red Cross Christ
mas Seals sold in his town, Lake Park
Iowa, and won a place in the special
mention" list of boys and girls who
sold the seals throughout the United
States and made a name for them
selves as successful statesmen.
Now the boys and girls-little and
big, young and old-are at work
again, carrying out sound business
principles worthy of good business
men, in many schools throughout the
State. They are combining fol ces,
forming a regular "School Seal Com
pany" if you please, acting as local
agent for the seals of Red Cross
Christmas Seals-each boy and girl
to sell as many seals as possible, and
to get other people to sell as many
seals as possible. Then when the
Christmas Season is past, each
School Seal Company" will have a
little exercise in arithmetic like this:
Divide the total number of Red Cross
Seals by the total number of grades
pupils enrolled. If the quotient is so
or more, ,then-heigho. This school
will be placed on the honor roll of
the Iowa Association for the Proven
ton of tuberculosis and will receive
free visit from a nurse during the
coming year
There are now some 20 nurses act
ing as special teachers of hygiene"
in Iowa schools, but many more are
needed if all of our boys and girls
are going to be reached.
There are many benefits to be
derived from this seal sale by the
school boys and girls; it acquaints
them with the real story of the Red
Cross Seal which comes as surely as
does Christmas; it unites boys and
girls. big and little, old and young,
in a common cause to help alleviate
suffering; it helps to spread abroad
the real Christmas Spirit of cheerful
ness. happiness, and helpfulncss; it
emphasizes the blessings of health,
the necessity of growing strong and
keeping WE'LL and to many school
groups it will give a real demonstra-
ton of one of the most potent factors
in disease or prevention-the school
nurse. These school sales should re-
ceive the Import and encouragement
of all in the community.

BREAKES ARM WHILE
LOADING CALF IN WAGON

Frank Duvall. residing on his farm
nine miles northeast of town had his
right arm broken Monday morning
while trying to load a young calf into
farm wagon. 1t was a bright, cold
crispy morning and the calf was full
of life and vigor so when Mr. Duvall
attempted to put the calf into the
wagon he found that he had tackled
mans job. In some way or other
the calf got him cornered with the
above result. The task was abandon
ed and Mr.. Duvall came to town to
have the fracture reduced and placed
in cast. 1t will be several weeks
before the mending process has
developed to the point that the arm
will be strong enough to do any work.
1t is to be hoped that the wound will
heal properly and that no ill effects
will result from the injury.

CONTEST PROVES
PLEASANT AFFAIR

High Spirits-NIarkings EX-
Ceedinoly Close

The annual declamatory contest
of the Audubon high school was held
in the Presbyterian church, last FRI
day evening. December tenth. AS this
has always been a very interesting
event to every one, large crowd
was present..
Miss Alice White, of Portsmouth,
/ Iowa, had spent some time here
training the contestants for the con-
test. Her ability along that line was
certainly shown to a good advantage
by the manner in which each contest
ant delivered his or her selection.
Miss Rebecca Weeks, who was de-
clared winner over all. gave a hum
orous selection. I'm Pullman Dress
ing Room" She gave it in very
effective manner and it was heartily
enjoyed by those in attendance.
Second place was given to Miss
Mildred Jones. her selection was also
humorous, keeping a Seat at
Benefit" The selection was full of
wit and humor, and the way in which
made a hit with the audience A

were the judges of the contest. The
competition between the members
was so strong and the markings so
close that is was some time before
the judges could come to a decision
as to whom the first prize should be
awarded.
From Audubon, Miss Weeks will
go as a representative to the district
contest to be held soon at Logan. Ia,
where all hope she will be as FORUM
ate as she was at home.
Miss White is expecting to return
to Audubon next year, sometime dur
ing the summer months, to give in
structions in elocution. Any one in
terested in that line of work cannot
afford to miss this excellent training
in culture.

EASY LESSONS IN

Feeding Billy Boy By The Clock"

Helen had planned lunch while
she washed the breakfast dishes bu
guest made some changes in hel

few minutes before she went to tn,
DINING room to set the table.
She glanced into the living room
expecting to begin the conversation
where she left off, but her friend wa.
so busy reading the pamphlet that she
did not disturb her.
Pretty soon, however, Mrs. Thomp
son, called to say Billy was awake
Helen said Eyes" as she showed nc
intention of going to him the Older
woman got uneasy and finally sait
Don't you want me to take him uI
and hold him until you finish your
work."
"Oh, No." said Helen as she placed
a bowl of flowers on the table and
stood back to try the effect. He will
be alright for quite awhile. / always
let him lay just as long as he is con.
tented. / believe babies are like kit.

handled too much.
In few minutes John came in and
after greeting Mrs. Thompson, asked
where is Billy Boy?"
He was late with his bath this
morning, so he is still in bed ANSWER
ed Helen" but don't suppose he will
stay there much longer when he
hears his fathers voice and sure
enough the sounds in the bedroom
changed to loud wall.
John thought this excuse enough

where Helen had already invited Mrs.
Thompson for lunch was ready. He
put the boy in the high chair, prop
ping him up with cushions for Billy's
back still needed little help to keep
him straight. Then the proud father
turned to the guest and said what
do you think of our boy, Mrs Thomp-
SOM" He certainly is fine looking
child, John she answered, but he
comes of good stock that is naturally
healthy so that accounts for it,
mot althogether" said John as he
seated himself at the table and began
to serve lunch. His little mother
seems to be pretty well posted on
baby raising.
But where did she get her know
ledge. She certainly hadn't much
chance to learn at home for she was
the only child and Mrs. Thompson
laughed merrily at the idea of Helen
being an expert in this new trade.
l guess she just learned it out of
books or to be more exact is just
learning it each day as she goes along.
You see there are good many
doctors studing babies nowadays and
they seem willing to write about what
they are learning and pass it on in
the magazines. 1t certainly helps,

especially when the mother has judg-
ment enough to fit it to the needs
of the individual baby, and John had
a large amount of pride in his eyes
as he passed Helen the marmalade.
But isn't that stuff in books mostly
theory? /, for one, don't put much
stock in it. / was just reading that
pamhlet from the Childrcn's Bureau
while Helen was getting lunch and a
good bit of it is nonsense. Think of
feeding a tiny baby by the clock. and
making him wait until just such a
time whether he is hungry or not /
tell you j didn't do that. When my
babies were hungry / fed them and
all of them were healthy except
James . OF course they cried quite a
bit but that did not hurt them, and
Mrs. Thompson sat up very straight
in her chair, feeling she had the best
of the argument.
The conversation turned to other
subjects and presently John excused
himself to the ladies, walkedover to
Billy's chair saying Come, Billy,
Kiss Daddy before he goes down
town" and reaching down kissed the

see it is time for Billy Boys dinner

Do you make that baby go for
three hours without being fed?
never heard of such a thing and Mrs.
Thompson spoke in amazement.
OF course l do, and tomorrow he is
going to wait fifteen minutes longer
and inside of month I shall make
it three and a half hours, and Helen
laughed at the establishment in her
friends face.
Why on earth do you want to
starve the poor baby said Mrs.
Thompson, just because it is help
less?
Starve him echoed Helen, does he
look starved? He is too fat, that is
why l am frightening his feeding

Thompson's wraps when she insisted
on it.

WENT TO CARROLL HOSPITAL

Charles Cooper, an attorney-at-law
of Coon Rapids, and his client, Carl
Markensen who were in an autOmo-
bile wreck last Friday afternoon at a
point two miles east of Cameron Cen
ter when a defective steering gear
caused their automobile to turn over,
have so far recovered that they were
able to return home. Mr.. Cooper and
his client were on their way to Audi
bon when the accident occurred. He
was quite badly injured internally
and received several cuts in the face
Mr.. Markensen was only slightly in
jured but was soon able to return
home. Mr.. Cooper was given medical
attention and later went to the Park
Hotel where he remained until Mon
day evening when he went to the
hospital at Carroll for further treat
ment. 1t is not thought, however,
that his injuries will prove serious.

REGULATION DESIRED

The railroads are laying their
emphasis on the necessity for federal
regulation if they are to prosper and
to furnish the desired extension and
betterments which their properties
require. 1t will be interesting to see
how the Members of Congress will
divide on this question IF it ever
reaches them in concrete form. The
Republican platform of 1916 is ex-
plicit in declaring for fedela al regula-
ton. 1t was the most pronounced
step in advance which that platform
took. Yet it was scarcely commented
upon during the campaign. News
papers and orators said nothing about
it. The candidates gave it scant at
tention-yet, here, in less than a
month from the election, the question
is upon Congress in very active
form.

MAKES A SPLENDID SHOWING

While there is considerable talk
these days about young boys making
money raising baby beef. it will be
interesting to know that Paul Gid
dens, the thirteen year old son of Rev.
Giddens, has made a splendid show
ing raising a young calf. About a
year ago his father gave him young
Jersey calf to see what success he
would have in raising it. He fed the
calf one sack of calf meal, there being
no milk for the critter, then put it
out on pasture. Later he fed the
calf some oats which amounted in
all to about six bushels. On Saturday
of last week Paul sold the past year
ling to a farmer for an even 800.
The entire cost of feeding the calf
did not exceed SIS. so Paul has made
a record breaker as a money maker,
and is justly proud of his business
venture.

DEMURRAGE CHARGES RAISED

In order to relieve the shortage of
all kinds of cars for shipping pur-
pose, the railroad companies have just
issued notices of a material increase
in the demurrage rates. 1t is antici-
pated that with the increase in rates
the cars will be unloaded sooner and
thus enable the railroad companies
to supply the urgent demand for cars.
w. w. Smith, agent for the Rock
Island informs us that after the first
two days, for which there are no
charges, that 81 demurrage charges
will be made for the third day, So
for the forth day. SO for the fifth
day and SIS for each day following.
This ought to have the desired results
At this time of the year it is diff
cult problem for the railroads to
furnish cars for the transportation of
coal and grain.

Martha. II year old daughter Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Thor Nielsen who re-
side northeast of Kimballton, was
struck by an auto driven by Marius
Jorgensen, Tuesday evening, and
sustained a fracture of three ribs.
However, her condition is not con-
sidered serious. The girl, and two

side of the road when the auto con-
tanning Jorgensen and his parents
came along. Confused, the girl
jumped in front of the machine, with

THE AUTUMN OF THE BIBLE

One wiser than us has said there is
something in the fall of the year
which is kin to the blood of all of us.
1t is zest and clean spirit that are
world-old and eternally new. Spring
may be the renewal of life; autumn
is its refreshing.
Turn to the Old Testament and
read there of all the manifestations
of autumn and early winter-of the
east wind, the breath of the Lord
coming up from the wilderness, the
clouds and the storm and the rain.

EDUCATION BY MAIL.

Mr.. Fl. c. Holderman, District
Supt. of the International Core
spondence Schools, Scranton

forming class for fall and winter
study. For the information of our
readers we give the following data:
This school covers 71a acres of
ground and employs $500 people

ly 100000 people are studying to
better their positions thru this
method and about 5000 were grad
uates and given diplomas in 1915,
all of whom are holding good pos
itions. This speaks for itself and
we will have to acknowledge that
education by mail has come to
stay. The young man or woman
who is not able to attend q college
can get all the education they need
