W hen Mother Calls.

When mother c2lls--ycu must come in.
And how that call through all the din
Amid the childhood memories high.
Is ringing still within your ears.
You thought it very awful then
To leave the game and leave the fun
And just because your mother called
To have to say goodbye End run.
When mother cslls--you wish that now
Her voice could call you as it did
Way back in that old dream somehow,
Amid the childhood memories hid.
You chaffed bccarse you thought 1t soon
To have to come, twas early vet;
And so you left the game in tune
To some reluctant spell or fret.
When mother calls---so different seems
The memory OF it now to you;
How beautiful she was in dreams
That decked her there In sun and dew
But you were hateful. and at times
YOU closed your ears and winked your
eye,
And made belief you did not hear,
And made her stand and call and cry.
You wouldn't keep her waiting there
As once YOU did. You'd hear her now
And leap TO fly along the air,
And lean 70 kiss her dear old brow.
When mother calls--sh, lads Of life,
Don keep her waiting there to call!
Put down the tunult and the strife,
And go before the shadows fall
When mother cs1ls---come quick, come
sweet.
With smiling lips and dancing feet,
With all the childhood spirit true
To all the love she bears for you.
For some time. mid far on events,
You'll be glad you heard her cry,
And had the love and had the sense

Some Causes of Low Yields
in Vermilion Parish.
BY T. II. CASANOVA

After good seed, the next
best thing to do to increase
the yealds of crop per acre is
to deepen the seed bed. Corn
and cotton, especially, in Yer
million Parish are usually
planted in ground that has
been plowed anywhere from
three to six inches deep.
Even if this land were very
fertile and even through the
farmer added sufficient a
mounts of commercial fertil-
ger, the possibilities for a
great yield of corn would be
poor.
Hu1nus, or decayed plant or
animal matter is one of the
first essentials in producing a
bumper crop. All of our soils
are rapily becoming poor in

the soil a greater capacity of
catching and holding water

There is another and equal

Sometime in my rcading l

not refrain from pas lg them
on to YOU. Who of II, for in
Stance, does not kno" the val
lie Of few good friends? Yet
who among us has ever paid a
tribute to our friends SO grace
fully and 50 beautifully as it
has been paid by the poet who
wrote the verses which | set
forth herewith:
There's all of pleasure and all Of peace
In a friend or two;
And all Your troubles may find relense
With friend or two;
It's in the grip of the clasping hand
On native soil or in alien land
But the world is made---do YOU under
stand?
OF friend or two
A song to sing and crust to share
With a friend or two;
A smile to give and grief to bear
With friend or two;
\ road TO walk and a goal TO win,
An ingleuook to find comfort in,
The gladdsst hours that we know, begis
With friend or two;
A little laughter perhaps some tears,
With friend or two;
The days, the weeks, and the months
and years
With a friend or two;
vale to cross and hill TO climb,
mock at age and jeer at time
The prose of life takes the lit of rhyme
With friend or two;
Then brim the goblet and quaff the
toast
To friend or two;
For glad the man who can always boast
OF friend or two;
The fairest sight is friendly face,
The blithest tread is a friendly pace,
And heaven will be better place
For friend or two.
1t is one of the penalties of
a busy life, such as I lead, |
that l often cannot find the
time to sit in the inglenook or
stop in the fence corner and
chat with "a friend or two"
There is so much work to be
done, the day is so short, and
so we go along denying our
selves the pleasure which we
grip of the clasp
ing hand, the CHEEKY word of
friendship that will Tighten
the burdens of the day and rob
the nighttime of its darkness.
