To disapprove your insinuations re-
garding my ability as a first-class
cook, / will send you a sample of my
biscuits and meat balls.
l also intended to send you sam
pie of my pancakes but had bad luck
for the reason that my cook stove was
out of order, and expected you would
blame me ond not the stove.
Now I would like to have you rem
der fair, impartial judgment on
this building material" as l must
have my credits for what is due me
in this line of work. AS the matter
stands now, / am the only one who
knows that my cooking is absolutely
perfect.
Please make this right for the pub
lie. I ask for justice, tho you may
have to stretch the truth just little.
sincerely hope that you are will
ing and able to explain yourself and
affix your apology such that may be
placed in the right regardless of favor
to me and also forget about the burn
ed spots on my pancakes and the
shortage of baking powder for my
biscuits. If you expect me to remain
as your friend, my will must be done.

Next Sunday is mothers day.

Next Sunday is mothers day, ac-
ccording to a proclamation issued by
Gov. Frazier, and the chief executive
pertinently says: The observance of
Mothers Day has a special signifi-
canoe this year, and mother love has
taken on an added meaning to the
thousands of young men who have
left the parental home, many of them
for the first time, and are taking their
places in our armies and navies. To
them has been given the greatest
commission Of modern times. They
have set out to check the incroach-
ments of military autocracy and I'M
democratic ideals, and when their
task is completed the world will be a
better and safer place in which to live.
Many daughters have also been called
into the service. We are equally in
terested in their well-being and ap-
preciative of their efforts. We can
not place too great stress on the need
for perpetuating filial ties at this
time. Neither must we under esti-
mate the extent of the sacrifices be-
ing made by the mothers of the de-
tenders of democracy. How fitting
that day should be dedicated to ac-
cord the mothers special honor and to
offer up prayer that they may be d.
vinely strengthened and upheld in the
ordeal they are undergoing. In count
less homes throughout our state
prayers will go up for the safety and
guidance of beloved sons in canton
ments or on the battlefields of France,
and from barracks and army huts
corresponding petitions will arise in
behalf of the mothers and other low
ed ones at home. On the walls of Y
M. c. A. buildings the motto "Write
Mother First" is often seen. Writing
materials are everywhere available
for our boys, and. the advantages are
being made good use of. Through this
medius influences are being retained
as in no preceding war. It is expect
ed and urged that between the ser.
vices of Mothers Day that sons and
daughters whether in the federal ser.
vice or elsewhere may write tt
Mother" and that all will wear 8
white carnation in honor of Mother.

IF you want to see a fellow do some
real work just drop up to the corner
Of Helena avenue and Sixth and
watch 7. Melvin Lee. He has done
some great work on that spot which
was formerly frog pond. He has
had the lots all graded, has planted
trees around the premises, fixed up a
xuuken garden, put in fruit trees,
strawberry beds, ETC., and is going
to make that one of the fine corners
of the town. Good for him. Later on
he intends to build modern home on
that spot.

w. T. Craswell received letter
from one of our soldier boys in
France recently and here is what he
says: 81 have not seen real pretty
girl yet. Guess they must steer clear
of the soldier boys. Our American
girls are a hundred per cent better
looking. Those I have seen would
improve themselves 100 per cent if
they would take bath occasionally"
This ought to make our home girls
feel somewhat chesty after hearing
such glowing reports of the beautiful
girls in France. Guess it is mostly
camouflage.

We regret that lack of time and
space prevents giving an itemized
statement of just what each branch in
the county is doing every month. It
takes great deal of time to do this,
however and almost requires the SER
vices of regular secretary. It may
be said however that every branch in
the county is doing excellent work,
md it would hardly be fair to make
special mention of any particular
branch. While the larger towns send
IN more articles, the smaller ones do
III they can and the work of all is of
IN excellent grade. The shipments
to Division Headquarters at Mime
apoEs have at various times received
very creditable comment, which is
most encouraging to all engaged in
the work. That the production from
Barnes county is steadily increasing,
Is shown by the reports for the four

follows:
