When one thinks Of the great events
that have taken place in the Holy
Land. the multitude of cities, villages
and towns, the countless millions who
have been born there and whose bones
now lie in its rock ribbed hills, the
small dimensions of Palestine are al
most startling. West of the Jordan,
where most of the historic events took
place, there are only $500 square
miles, including all the geographical
divisions now called Palestine. In
Guiding the land both east and west OF
the Jordan, the total area is 9'SlO
square miles The length of Palestine
from north to south is about 100 mics
1t varies in breadth from twenty-three
to eighty miles.

The act of what we call faintlng,
which often accompanies the receipt Of
good or bad news, is caused by sud
den contraction Of the blood vessels,
stopping the flow Of blood to the brain.
When the contraction is not violent
enough 70 bring about Il fainting spell
the person SO affected turns white anil
feels suddenly weak. But when the
emotion is overwhelming the person
concerned falls down. That is natures
way Of trying to adjust the trouble.
1t is much easier for the blood to flow
into the brain when a person Is lying
down than when sitting or standing,
aud the moment that the flow Of the
vital fluid TO the head becomes NORMAL
the sufferer is restored.

The musical part of the show this

DOING THINGS WITH 4 CLUB

The club area has made it possible
| for lot of good things to be &C
complished. Farmers clubs are
bringing about a better understand
ing and closer cooperation among
the tillers of the soil. Women's
clubs are making communities bet
| ter places in which to live. Com
mercial clubs are working wonders
in the business world.
The boys acre corn club is bring
| ing about increased yields of corn in
Iowa and a greater interest in farm
ing among the farmer boys. Last
year 500 Iowa corn club boys grew
an average yield of about "a bushels
per acre. This is nearly twice the
average yield for farmers of the
state. In Audubon county the aver
age yield was SO bushels per acre.
What would it mean to this coun-
ty and to this community if the aver
age yield of corn could be increased
five bushels per acre? Figure it out,
Mr.. Business Man, and see if it
seems worth while to help along the
movement for increased corn pro-
duction. The boys with their clubs
are showing that it is easily pos
sible.
OF course. good corn yields can be
produced without joining corn
growing club. but the boy in the
club is much more likely to keep up
interest and finish his project than
if he worked alone. Boys and Girls
club work is bringing about COM
munity effort and interest and these
are worth striving for.
a lot of boys have joined the corn
club this year. We will soon pub
lish the names of the boys in this
county who have joined. The name
of every boy who can possibly join.
