First Session for Farmers Opened in
Morrill, Hall This Morning.
Fine Program Arranged

The opening session of Farmers
week at the university this morning
was marked by splendid attendance
and indications now point to still
larger attendance at the succeeding
sessions during the week. The ses-
sions are being held in Morrill, hall
and the fact that many farmers from
surrounding sections are in attend
ance indicate the great interest that
has been aroused 1t is announced
that tomorrow will be livestock day
and some excellent numbers are on
the program.
That the Housekeepers' week will
not be lacking in attendance at the
sessions to be held in the administra-
tion building was indicated this af-
ternOon by the fine audience. The
demonstrations in cooking by Miss
BarrOws this afternoon were extreme
ly valuable and housewives of Mos
COW and vicinity who do not attend
these sessions will have missed a
rare treat. More than 100 were pres
ent today

REVIVAL SERVICES
ATTRACTED CROWD
OPENING SESSIONS SUNDAY AT
THE METHODIST CHURCH WERE
OF EXCEPTIONAL INTEREST
Evangelist DanfOrd Spoke Both Morn
ing and Eyening-Men's Chorus VIII
Assist This Evening

Despite the unfavorable conditions
of the weather, large congregations
gathered at the First Methodist
church both morning and evening yes
terday to hear Evangelist Danford. In
the morning he preached on 'The
Love of Cod" from John 3:16. The
sermon won all hearts and started
the revival on the right line. In the
evening he chose as his text Ps. 1914
LET the words of my mouth, and the
mediation of my heart, be acceptable
in thy sight" From this he preached
a very strong, logical and convincing
sermon on the thought life of the in
dividual, taking the position clearly
that "Unless God had reached man s
thoughts he had not touched the life
at ALL" That mo man't thoughts
could be acceptable in the sight of
God unless they were pure and purity
came only as result of the cleansing
made possible by the blood of
Christ
The Mems chorus of about 40 voices
under the direction of DR.. Boyd will
furnish the music this evening. DR..
Danford will preach every evening

"GINGLES JINGLES"
THE HUMOROUS SIDE.

The humorous side is always good.
No other should appeal. A sense of
humor smooths the way and helps us
with our spiel. You can't succeed and
be crouch. l care not what your
game, and he that's always out of
sorts, has but himself to blame A
joke, smile, a hearty laugh, will
simistic bug and down the phantom
fear. So put it over with joke.
Don't see the other side. Cut fret and
worry with laugh, and you will turn
the tide. The anxious man is not the
one to whom you pin your hopes. He
shadow boxes till all in, then floun-
ders on the ropes. He's always go
ing some, and yet he don't seem to
arrive. His poise is out of kilter, and
he don't know he's alive. He hits at
all the wide ones, he has lost his
batting eye, nobody home and no one
cares for any such a guy. Just culti-
yate sense of fun, you'll find it
worth your while, the world reflects
the sunshine, and will reproduce your
smile. II you should find that you arc
shy on sense of humor dope, just play
you have it, learn to laugh; it is your
only hope. The man who laughs is
thrice, for him we have a
place. But let the Crouch grow whis-
zers so that he can 70 O.. n
hide his face. er@>1t. J..sSftA
