squirrel or a child do some amusing
thing as we glanced out of the win.
dow while at work. The wind may
have been chasing the pretty leaves
or the sun playing hide-and-seel
among the clouds. Stories are not al
! to BIZ found in books. It is big ac.
complishment to learn to do things in
the child's way-things they like to
do but which we have often denied
them because we felt we didn't have
time to be bothered.
If the little ones see that mother
and father are trying to find some
thing to love in all their trying tasks,
before we know it the home will al
ways be full of sunshine. If we have
a fretful child to deal with, find out
first if he is being properly nourish
ed; then try telling him stories which
will take his mind off himself.
Many children are often Disagree
able because they haven't enough of
the right things to do, such as games
and songs, that provide activity and
stimulate the mind and occupations
that answer the child's need to be
doing and making something.
A most important point for the
mother to realize is the necessity of
sticking to the lessons she needs to
teach every single day until the right
habits are permanently formed in her
child.
No one can tell US exactly the
things it is best to do with children.
But if we begin to watch and think,
read when we can and exchange ex-
periences with other mothers many
suggestions will be found to meet our
needs. Take a glimpse backward into
your own childhood and many ideas
will occur to you in that way. And
through it all we will find that the
children are helping to bring us up,
too. Courage and joy prolong life,
and we can we'll afford to stand and
wait, feeling sure that if our motives
have been right and we can find
something to love even in the hard
things of life our little ones will see
and know and will "rise up to call US
blessed"

THE LOAN

The people of the whole country are
alive to the necessity of the Third
Loan and are ready to lend to the ut
most, even where it involves a sharp
skimping and daily sacrifice to lend
out of the meager earnings. They
will look with reprobation and con-
tempt upon those who can and will
not, upon those who demand a higher
rate of interest, upon those who think
of it as mere commercial transac-
ton. have not come, therefore, to
urge the loan.

cottage CHEESE
FOR STATE OF \. D.
DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
SENDS WOMAN TO ENCOUR-
AGE PRODUCTION

Washington, D. c., April 22-Tht
Bureau OF Animal Industry of the
United States Department of Agri
culture has named Mrs. Mabel Hollis
an agricultural extension worker Of
Fargo, N. D., to encourage in NORTH
Dakota, the production of cottage
cheese on farms and also to stimu'
late it's use in homes.
Mrs. Hollis, one of AZ women agents
named for as many States, is to CO.
operate with Federal and State agri.
cultural and home demonstration
agents. Miss Gertrude Van Hoesen
of Chicago, Illinois, formerly teach
er of household arts at the Univer-
sity of Chicago, is the leader in the
cottage-cheese work for the Central
Western States. >
The work in North Dakota will be
part Of the Department of Agricul-
ture's national campaign, in coopera-
tion with the U. S. Food Administra-
ton, to encourage the use, as we'll
as the production of cottage cheese,
which experiments by the Department
have shown is equal in food value to
meat. Cottage cheese can be made
from skim milk or buttermilk, now
largely wasted or fed to animals, and
it's extended use is expected to save
large amount of meat which can be
used by the armies and allies of
America.

ROBERT B0USuMAN
HOME FROM CAMP
TELLS OF WORK AT THE CAMP
AND or THE DAILY ROUTINE
SAYS WRITE LETTERS

Robert Bousliman arrived home the
latter part of last week to attend the
funeral of his Grandmother Mrs.
Mary BousIiman which was held here
Sunday. Robert is Corporal in the
Field Artillery at Camp Dodge and
reports that there are five other Will
liston boys in this division and that
all of of them hold non-commission
offices. All of the boys are in good
health and he says that the ones from
North Dakota are the healthlest OF
the bunch and have stood the wealth
er conditions at the camp much bet
ter than the boys from other sections
of the country. Bob thinks that his
company will stay at Camp Dodge
for some time as they are used to
instruct the new arrivals that are
coming into the camp. The camp life
consists of seven hours drill per day
and one hour of recreation which con-
sists of some of the national games
such as base bah, basket ball and the
like.
There is a fine theatre at the camp
and the plays are putt on by the gov
ernment, the admission to them be-
ing paid by the boys. The tickets IN
the smileage books sent to them by
the home folks are also used for these
entertainments and Bob urges that
the home folks send more of the
books to their friends in the camps
as the boys are usually short OF
money.
What salary the boys have for
their own use usually goes to buy
Liberty Bonds, War Savings Stamps
and for their insurance which they
have to pay for each month. Outside
of this the boys have everything they
need with the exception of more let
tiers from home. Robert urges the
people at home to give more time to
the letter writing as this gives them
more courage and hopes than any
thing that can be done for them If
YOU have any friends in the camps or
abroad write to them and write often.
Robert returned to camp Tuesday.
