At Evian, in France, near the
Swiss border, there is no more
pathetic sight than the daily pro-
cession of child wrecks from Bel
GUM and northern France that
the Germans have sent out of the
country they hold.
The little ones of no possible
use to the Huns, too small to
work and only representing
mouths that they must make a
pretense of feeding, are sent to
France with their diseases upon
them-principally tuberculosis.
There is German craft in send
ing the children back. Not only
will France have to feed them, but
there is always the chance that the
little ones will spread disease in

final disposition is made of them.
II the children are simply un-
derfed and undernourished, they
are sent to the south of France,
where homes are arranged for
them. If they are tuberculaf, they
are sent to special institutions for
care.
The effort of the French and
Belgian governments is to save
as much of this human wreckage
as possible. The American Red
Cross is helping. The children in
this particular picture are Belgians
from the district bordering on the
River User, where their fathers
have for so long made so gallant
a resistance to the invader.

HOW COUNTRY MAY
ENRICH COMMUNITY LIFE
Just n Suggestion or Two That Every
Virginia Farmer May Take
Under Confederation.

Then comes the question: What
should the country school do TO de
velop individual lie and TO enrich com
munity life? And our answer Is that
II should Oh encourage the community
spirit instead OF the spirit OF indi-
vidualisrn, should encourage boys and
girls TO find JOY in comradeship instead
OF working for self alone: and t2) it
should encourage love OF the beau
tliul IN nature, art, literature, music
and in human conduct Because, based
upon these principles, the folk high
schools nave revolutionized the mum
try !fe OF Denmark. and - IS high
time Tor our public schools of the South
10 catch something OF the same spirit
Here are five things they should do:
/. Both teachers and school commit
tcemen should encourage the local
union. farmers club, the farm woman's
club and every other local organiza-
tioa TO meet in the school building
OF course, they should be asked 10
abuse the building just as little as
possible but even il having such meet
ings does mean little extra cleaning
up. 1t IS infinitely better to have them
,. OF course, too, the debating So
cie,y. the boys corn clubs. girls can
ming clubs. etc. should hold all meet
ngs at the schoolhouse.
J. Then there should be an ample
playground a the schoolhouse not only
LOT the sCnoolpOSS ana girls. but base
ball basketball and tennis grounds for
the community generally on Saturday
afternoons.
/. A school farm cultivated by the
patrons will also do much not merely
10 get needed funds. but to promote
community fellowship
). The people should meet frequently
AZ the schoolhouse TO sing old familiar
songs of love. patriotism and religion
All over the North and West now the
people are waking UP to the posi-
bili!ies OF community singing" In
New York City thousands and thou
sands of people now come together in
the parks on Sunday afternoons and

A Sure Road to Poverty.

The Progressive Farmer. of recent
rate, reads a timely lecture to some
Southern farmers as follows:
One way TO Judge a mans success as
farmer, IL he be farming rolling
lands. is 10 ind out whether his lands
are washing away less and less each
year. or more and more. /; the former
the chances are lie is on the roHd to
prosperity and independence; If the
latter, he is on the road to failure and
poverty-Soil poverty and human
poverty.
April this year over much OF the
South was characterized by heavy
beating rains-torrcntial downpours
that played havoc with cultivated hill
sides that were not properly protected
Deep guilies were ripped out. good
soil along with high-priccd plant foods
was washed away, and the holiows and
valleys farther down were overlooked
Such thing means ruin for the man
on whose farm it is occurring. The
gullies get deeper and deeper. the soil
poorer and poorer, until finally we
have another abandoned farm" left
for nature, with her old field pines
broomsedee and lespedeza, to bring
slowly back to productiveness.
Here is a most serious problem for
so per cent OF the farmers OF the
South. Are we gaining or are we los
ing in the never ending battle with he
elements to save our rolling lands? II
we are gaining. then we are fairly N
the road To success, for a good soil Is
certainly the basis of successful farm.

OF capon production is limited to
those who have an abundance Of free
range. where the birds can pick up a
good!y portion Of their living. The
general farm, with it's orchard pas
ture field and 80 on, makes an ideal
place for growing twenty-five or nifty
capons at small outlay. Likewise
commercial poultry farms that have
plenty OF range are in a position to
produce capons at a reasonable cost
y capon bears the same relation 10
the rooster that the steer does to the
bull. Owing 20 its quiet disposition. il
puts on flesh rapidly. and frequently
attains a weight OF ten or twelve
pounds. The meat is tender and juicy
which makes 1t extremely desirable for
roasting. Capons are used quite ex-
tensively during the holidays in place
Of turkeys.
The best time to perform the opera
t!on is when the coekerels weigh from

get much larger the operation is too
hard on them and there is danger Of
loss Full directions for performing
the operation are furnished with the
necessary tools that are manufactured
Tor this purpose. While the operation
is not very difficult. the beginner should
