and happiness.
1t is far easier to save a home by
little compromise at this time, than
it is to make over the inherited in
stincts and traditions of a certainly
not uncommon type of husband.
Perhaps the most unfortunate of \
all children is the only child. Such
a one must endure the undiluted
strength Of maternal love.
Il cannot possibly part with my
child" says the perfectly devoted
mother. And for this selfish reason
hundreds of ambitious boys and girls
are never sent away to school or are
kept in the fathers business, or in
the mothers kitchen.
81 can never live without my
daughter" is the reason many a mo-
Their gives for invading what should
be a sacred place, the home of a bride
and groom.
MOther-in-laws occupy a conspic-
uOus place in cases of divorce for
alienation of acectiOn. There's moth
ing on earth so Unrelenting, so per-
sistent and so mischieviOus as a mo-
Lher influence over a son when it
interferes between him and his wife.
Equally peTnicious is the selfish
domination of devoted mothers over
unmarried children. There is moth
ing which robs a girl or boy of am
bition so effectively, which makes
them so anxious to leave home, and
so impatient of parental control, as
to have the mother demand and take
all the wages which her children
earn. Hundreds of mothers do this
thing-and bewaiI the ingratitude
Of the child who objects.
This is not the kind of maternal
love which inspired the great French
actress. Maternal love AT ITS BEST
means SERVICE and SELF-FOR-
GETFULNESS.
Then are its rewards greatest.

TO LINK RUSSIAN and BRITISH FORCES

Maude will not be Content to Stop at Bagdad

March While great pc

the British, the military re
suit of the notable event are
of greater immediate interest.
pointing to the possibility OF
a comparatively speedy links
ing up of the British and
Russian movements against
the Turks in this far away
field ofwar.
The condition which Gen
Maude found upon entering
Bagdad, and the status of his
supply arrangements must in
a great measure affect any
plans for further advance.
Given the assurance of ado~
quate supplies and replenish>
ment it seems probable that
he will not rest content with
holding Bagdad, but will at
tempt further advance up
the Tigris. The measure OF
the Turkish resistance along
this line will be effected in
no small measure by the rate
of progress Of the Russian
columns, moving toward Me-
sopotamia from Perisa.
The linking up Of Russian
and British forces, therefore,
at a point considerably north
of Ragdad does not seem an
impossibility.
The Turkish minister of
war is quoted as describing
the Tu1 kish retiring move
ment in Meopotamia as a
strategic retreat and declar
ing that military reason are

The manner in which the accident
happened was described to a Sheaf

walking along the side of the track,
when he heard the freight train ap-
preaching. Thinking that he could
beat the engine past certain point,
where the large crane comes up close
to the track, he tried to do so. But
he had misjudged the distance that the
engine was from him and when herhad
reached this point was hit. The train
was moving at pretty fair rate of
speed and Wray was thrown quite a
distance from the place.

rather than spend several thousand
dollars repairing the old one.
just how the blaze originated is un-
known to the employees of the COM
pany, as they were at the station until
seven O'Clock in the evening aid twen-
ty minutes later the fire had gained
strong headway. When the depart
ment, which arrived promptly on the
scene, turned the water on, the entire
building was enyeloped in flames. Ap-
parently the starting place Of the fire
was under the platform a few feet
east of the depot. All the freight, fix
lures and important reports were saw
ed, so that the company will suffer but
a small loss in this respect Owing to
the fact that the nearest hydrant was
cracked and leaked badly the fire fight
ers were handicapped by being unable
to get the volume of water that they
needed to fight the fire efficiently.
The building was used this morning
for selling tickets and wilkbe repaired
SO that it can be put into use temporar-
lily. Two representatives Of the COM
pany are here today to learn the
amount of damage done by the blaze.

MERCIAkCLUB
WANTS $3.50 WHEAT

10 H -
At a meeting of the Commercial club
held last Thursday afternoon, it was
dechled to send kilograms, asking that
the set price Of wheat be $3.50 per
bushel, to Herbert G. Hoover, food
dictator and to our representatives at
Washington This action was taken,
as the business men realized that the
farmers in order to make fair and
legitimate profit must, be given the
above price The business. men are to
be commended for being so wide awake
in this matter and for having the inter-
ests of. the farmers at heart
Later it was rumored in the city
that Hoover intends to set
the price at $1.65, which of course. is
far from satisfactory to the farmers,
as the cost Of production is so great,
that they will not be able to make a
reasonable profit. However,. it is safe
to say that our men in congress will
work against Hoover's proposition and
that wheat will at least be $500 a
bushel.
