The Handy Girl,

There are some girls who have per feet knack of fashioning the dsintiest accessories from apparently nothing save a few scraps of material and a yard or two of lace. One of the most fascinating little negligees was made by q clever girl who had on hand an unusually large supply of handkcr- chiefs. Four of these bits of linen were joined together with strips of lace and an edging was run around the whole thing. An opening was left in the square, where two handkerchiefs met, and lace was sewed on each side in stead of joining with one piece. Nile green ribbon was used to tie at the neck and under the arms, and the re- suit was 8 cunning little negIigee.

increase Of the army from 100000
10 war strength, 10000 by bringing
company units to their entire quota.
increase OF the army by adding at

mated by the last army bill. This
would give 275.OOO in all.
Call for volunteers.
Have Congress pass a universal SER
vice measure which would probably be
SO shaped as to furnish 100000 youths
Just what is in th6>presidcnts mind
is a secret from the public Military
men say, however, that as nlans are
now shaping. the war department is
considering its enlargement measures
on the idea that "the btterest strug-
gle this nation has ever know, may be
our part"
These men say the country ought not
to be misguided in its view that real
war-and not merely police work
must sooner or later be the portion of
the big force which will probably be
demanded of Congress next week
The question of army recruiting is
kept in the background Of public at
tention for the moment so that the
navy may be brought to full strength.
Nothing must hamper getting the full
navy strength and getting it now, au-
thorities say.

ing monotonous, dull life, going round and round fin one spot and never re- alizing what immense possibilities there were about him. From an almost deplor- ably sad condition in .si4-15 when, with state of nearly 100000 people, we faced agricultural bankruptcy, and the fnan- ciers of Alabama were about to ask fed eral aid to relieve the situation. I said,
 No let the bankers and the business people of Alabama get behind the farm ing class and give them credit and help them out of the difficulty! The war brought about the first great crash in farming and the boil weevil, later, greater crash and so we had to do something; the bankers lent us their aid and support, while other business men of Alabama lent their aid and influence and the result is that we have made such strides that the northern ssand eastern capitalists unhesitatingly say that 1t was the first really rational step that we've ever taken as far as agricultural inter- ests are concerned"
 'The first great change that manifested itself,'' Mrs. Mathis said. was in the food crop; Alabama raised 100000 bushels more corn than was raised the year before; 750,000 bushels more wheat; 1,5OO 900 bushels of oats and millions and millions more pears. beans and potatoes, and other crops. The largest hay crop
 in the history of Alabama was raised, while live stock in every county in the state fourished. but greater than any measure in dollars was the spirit of CO., operation and the development of fra ternity which I say truthfully seemed for the first time to be true, and that is that we loved each other. The result is that better homes have been made, bet ter people, more money, and Alabama a better state"

Vanderlip's assist ant, all the great bankers and capital ists of the east and north, as well as those of the west" said Mrs. Mathis, 'are watching Alabama-are watching the south and It's agr-cu1tural develop ment, because they have long ago re- affixed that agriculture is the south's greatest asset"
 T am often asked-especially was this true when I went over the state with Congressman Oliver," she continued ''how I managed to conserve my work and present it to my auditors so practi- cally, and I might answer by saying: Perhaps 1t Is because I have been a school teacher taught not only in a college where there were 800 boys, but also have taught vast numbers of boys in Sunday schools; seven young men now are filling high positions in the ministry who belonged to my Sunday school classes"
 When I give up teaching and mar ried," Mrs. Mathis said, T went to i've on farm; I gave up all work outside of my home, for later my three children occupied all of my time; but it was not for long that I was allowed to remain inactive, for I began to meet and know my neighbor farmers and I began to be interested in their work had always loved farm life; my father, who was my dearest and closest companion, was a farmer and from him I learned much of the practical side of farm life; so it seemed was destined to do just the work am doing: I soon owned several
 farms of my own; and all the farm land that have ever owned has been an in vestment of my own money. I took hold | of farming as I took hold of everything else; determining if I could to learn it 1 scientifically, and then go and apply it practically"
 T remember when I first tried to tell my fellow farmers how to run their farms; how, besides cotton and corn, they could raise foodstuffs and other
 things and I wanted to show them how to do it; one of the tenants said: The | way you are trying to show us how to run a farm will send Us all to the poor house! I answered them by saying: 1 Well, if do, you won't have to move:
 the only difference is that the county owns one and own the other'"
 Every man owes 1t to himself to own ! a home" said Mrs. Mathis." and with land as cheap as it in Alabama, every man ought to have home of his own.
 This knowledge of practical home own
 ing and practical living has been the growth of years with me. When I first
 started my work found the farmer liv-
