Dear Friends Of the Column:
Some OF you will remember that soon
after s'Pollyanna" was Published, we dis
cussed her and referred to her frequently.
10 the November number of the American
Maqosine, Mrs. Eleanor II. Porter, the
author OF that most helpful book, has
given us some pleasant glimpses Of the
world " ide results of Pollysnns's won
derful game.
This child OF her brain grew in her mind
from an idea to story. Her mother WAS
an invalid, and a suffering invalid, too,
and between them they originated "The
most wonderful game in the world" that
was christened, s'the glad game" Its
motto might well have been that resolve
OF Samantha, ~ will be cheerful" only,
in the glad game, the self element was
used to find things to be glad about. 1
shall quote here and there from Der article.
"What is the game? First, let me tell you
what it is not, please. 1t is not calling
pain, pleasure; or sorrow, joy. 1t is not
sitting down with folded hands and up
lifting gaze and declaring that everything
that is, is good. 1t is in searching for
whatever good there is in what is In
Poliyanna's case it began with q pair Of
crutches, wi ich came in q missionary bar
rel, when she had been longing for q doll.
1t was then that her father taught her the
game.
There is always something about every
thing that you can be glad for" he said.
''You can be glad even about the crutches
glad because you don't have to use
them"
The book hac not been out five weeks
before Mrs. Porter received a letter from
a man in Missouri, who wrote he had or
ganized his class of girls into individual
Pollyannas, who were to play the glad
game ever after, and that other teachers
we're to organize their classes likewise.
Then the letters began to come,
thicker, faster, and more of them, and
now, after five years, still come. Polly
anna has journeyed even to Persia, China,
India, Egypt, Turkey, New Zealand and
the Philippines: while hand in hand
with "Just David" she has attempted to
cheer the boys in the trenches of France.
81 opened a little yellow-and- white
volume and beheld the chickentoed
hieroglyphics which they told me was
Pollyanns in japanese. What, my Polly
anna? knew then how the poor hen
felt on the bank with her duckling
daughters afioat on a sea where she could
not follow" (Think of Pollyanna trans
lated into so many Ianguages)
This story has sold to almost the num-
Der of 100000. The sequels, ''Pollyanna
Grown Up" and ''Just David" have each
sold over 100000. PolIyanna as a play
has been running several years. Little
Miss Collinge, a bright Irish lassie, has
acted the part of Pollyanna, making a
remarkable record of a years run in
Chicago before New York ever saw the
play. Pollyanna has had about 800
performances One company has played
three years, another two years and it is
still ''going strong"

INCREASE IN POTATO YIELD
Average In This Country Has Risen
From n to 81 Bushels
Since 1894.

Washington.-The yield of potatoes
per acre is gradually increasing. the
records of the bureau of crop esti-
mates show. During 1S66-1ST4 the
average was 81 bushels, but 1t declined
to 71.3 bushels In 1S75-1S94. Per-
ceptible recovery was made In the fol-
Lowing ten-year period and much
larger recovery. rising TO a new high
water mark, was reached In 19o5-1914,
with its average yield of 81 bushels
Per acre.
This increase is due to various
causes, among which are greater spe-
c.alization Of production, more inten-
sive treatment and higher fertility Of
the soil. The ten-year average yield
of 81 bushels per acre In 1905-1914 was
followed by 963 bushels In 1915, sos
bushels In the very low year of 1915,
and 1908 bushels In 1917.
Compared with population the Yield
Of potatoes per acre declined from
1S661874 to 1905-1914. The gain Of
production per carata in recent years
has been more because Of increased
acreage than because of increased pro-
duction per acre.
