we must show the world the
kind of men we are.
The world is looking to uB for
bread, and we must furnish it or
women and children will Gle

supply of food is smaller than
ever known. We have enough
to tide us over until another her.

diligence and make the largest
yield next year in the history of
our country. that reserve will be
entirely wiped out and the world
will be out of food.

Milwaukee, Wis.-The leather
famine may come to be looked back
to with gratitude hereafter by econ
omists if it has the effect Of introduce
ing into this country the custom OF
wearing shoes of esparto grass. These
are made in Spain, Portugal and the

tough is the fiber of which they are
woven that a pair, it is declared, will
withstand constant use for quarter
of a century. Besides being nearly

And a smile on his face did blithly

He said, Good Peter, pray let me in,
For / am abundantly free from sin.
I've fed the widows, also the poor;
And have carried good cheer from
door to door,
I know l am sorely needed within,
For at playing the harp l am bound
to win"
So Peter took down his set of books
And regarded the stranger with
friendly looks,
And as he searched his brow fell low,
So that the stranger started to go.
Then Peter said, You need not wait
Your record prohibits your entering
the gate
One thing you omitted there below
Was to rid your walk of tons of snow

number of friends attended the funer-
al to show the respect to one who, by
his gentle and friendly manners, won
the respect and friendship of all who
knew him. He was a kind and true
christian, being a devoted member of
the Lutheran church and died in the
true faith of his redeemer.
Weep not that his toll is ended;
Weep not that his race is run;

When our work, like his is done.

Our treasure to God to keep
And rejoice in the blessed assurance

1917 Cold Year Throughout.

The year of 1917 earned a reputa-
ton Of being the coolest year il more
than a quarter century. The mean
maximum temperature was SOFA,
which is COS below the average. The
mean minimum teperature was 400,
which is As below normal. The total
precipitation for the year was 32.4S
inches. which is 81 hundreths of an
ilch less than the average. Take it
altogether, it was a year that was
lacking in temperature yet gave us
great crops in everything except corn,
and only an early frost spoiled that.
