THE BIG DAY
atSPRINGFIELD
Upwards of 1000 People
We're In Attendance,
and Every Minute
of the Time, From
Early Morn Till
the Close of Day, Was
Enjoyed by the Rollick-
ing Throrg.
FORENOON PROGRAM

We do not agree with the gen
eral expression of sentiment tc
the effect that the public on the
occasion of public celebrations
does not want to listen to public
speaking, or like entertaining
features.
We do believe, however, that
the public on any occasion does
not want to be imposed upon by
an all-day reading of "field
notes." or a one-hour or two
hour talk OF any kind that has
about len-cents worth of sani-
tary food in it.
Indeed, we believe that if
preachers generally would put
this into practice, and cut their
sermons down to thirty minutes
or less, there would be less dry
sermons and more people who
would go to hear them.
The speaking program as car
! ried out in the auditorium on the
4th was ideal in this respect.
The time allotted to each speaker
was Is minutes, and every min
ute's talk by the speakers was
heartily enjoyed by the audi.
ence.

Hosmer was principally remin-
,iscent. Mr.. Hosmer was one of

very warm affection for Baca

Woman Of 60 Manages
l25 Acres Of Apple Trees

/ In the American Magazine
among the interesting People
is an article about Mrs. P. G. Nc.
Evoy, sixty year old woman, who
makes fifteen carloads of apples
grow each year. The writer says:
Mrs. McEvoy is sixty years old
She owns and personally manages
every detail of work on an apple Or
chard of one hundred and twenty
five acres. 1t is situated at New
Burnside in the famous fruit belt of
Illinois, down in Egypt When her
husband died, ten years ago, he left
her forty acres of bearing apple or
chard, eighty-five acres of young,
nonfruitful orchard, and a mortgage
Never before had she wreStled with
finances except those of the house
and garden variety, and all her work
had been bathing the dishes, turning
the rag carpet every other spring,
and massaging the milk from one
COW twice per diem.
''Then the creditors came, and
were prevailed upon to give her two
years time to pay off the indebted
ness. And night and day for five
years she toiled in the fields. Night
and day is literal. In early spring,
for weeks at stretch, she stayed
out in the fields all night long,burn-
ing brush piles to protect, with the
warm pail of smoke, the tender buds
and blossoms from the cold. Day af-
ter day she waded through snow
knee-deep, building fires to keep her
hands warm as she wrapped the
young trees with cornstalks so the
rabbits could not nibble the bark off
them and kill them.
when the spraying season came
she mixed and cooked the poisons
with her own hands, and often for
days carried a twelve-foot spraying
rod, fighting the thousand and one
pests which besiege the apple from
its infancy.
"She helped to haul and spread
straw beneath the trees, so the ap-
pies shaken off by the summer
storms would not be too bruised to
market. Through the biting frosts
and cold of February and March,
through the rain of April, and the
heat of summer; through the dis
eases that spot the apples on the
trees in the fall, and the gathering
and packing of the winter apples in
and the repacking in De-
cember for cold storage, month after
month and year after year, she wag-
ed the desperate fight, and she wag-
ed it practically alone.
But it was winning fight. She
paid off the last of the debts last
and shipped over fifteen
carloads of apples from her one hun
dred and twenty-five acres of or
chard."

True Purpose of Press

The newspaper that is merely

it is a waste of the community S

The newspaper that stirs up
dissension between individuals or
classes, that causes disrespect for
authority or religion, that wounds
without purpose, that never
plants a seed without desire OF

personal prejudice, political pref

has no excuse for being, but its
editor stands everlastingly debt
