In Memoriam

In sad, but loving, remembrance
of my dear father, VIM. H. Todd,wh
departed this life one year ago to-
day, Dec. q, 1917.
Once 1 had a father
Who was so good and true,
That we were always happy,
Although earths joys were few.
He sought our every pleasure,
Cared for us night and day,
And was to US father
In every word and way.
Day by day 1 saw him fade
And slowly sink away,
And often in my heart l prayed
That he might longer stay.
Rest, dear father. thy work is DER,
Thy willing hands will toll no
more;
A faithful father, so true and kind,
A better father you could not find.
One year has passed, our hearts still
sore,
We miss him more each day:
His memory is as dear to ME
AS the hour he passed away.

GOODMAN TODD.

In Memoriiam

In sad, but loving, remembrance
of our dear son, who departed this
life two months ago today.
So hard we tried to save him,
Yet everything was vain;
1t broke our hearts to give him up,
And hear him groan in pain. :.
Oh, darling, l know you are happy
And free from every pain,
The fever that burned your little
form
Can never burn again.
We miss your hugs and kisses
At night, when we go to bed;
Our hearts still break within us,
For we know your grave is your
bed
Your brown eyes are closed forever,
From mother, here on earth,
And our hearts are filled with sad
ness,
While yours is filled with mirth.
l know you have met dear sister,
For she is an angel over there,
And my own two dear children
Have climbed the golden stair.

In Memoriam

In sad, but loving, remembrance
of our dear son. Jessie Green, who
died two months ago, October IS,
1918.
In little snow white casket,
Resting all among the flowers.
Lies our loving, blue-eyed baby.
Who was such a little while ours.
Your little clothes are laid away,
Your toys, too. are still,
And a vacant chair
This world can never fill.
We often sit and think of you,
When we are all alone,
For memory is the only thing
That grief can call it's own.
oh, could we see our pet once more,
And hold him in our arms,
And feel his loving arms around our
necks,
How happy we would be.
By his mother and father,
Mr. and Mrs. Will Green.

STRAW OVER WHEAT
TO PREVENT KILLING
1t Should be Spread Thin And Evenly
Before Severe Weather.

Straw spread thin and evenly over
winter wheat before severe cold Wea-
Their and at the rate of l to | IL
tons to the acre, may prevent winter
killing. In severe winters the straw
may help to carry the crop through
safely and prevent complete failure,
say specialists of the United States
Department of Agriculture; but II
the season is favorable the straw has
no effect on the crop except through
the addition of mineral and organic
matter it contains. The unusual I'M
portance of wheat and the disastrous
winter of 1867, when about one
third of the winter-whea acreage OF
the country was WinterKlIled, have all
stimulated interest in this subject.
There is always some winterkill-
ing of wheat. the average for the last
10 years being about 11.9 per cent.
of the crop. Some years the losses
amounted to less than 3 per cent. Of
the acreage sown, but in other years
it is very high, as in the winter OF
1861, when it amounted to 81
per cent AS it is impossible to fore
tell a severe winter, it is best to APP
ply straw, if it is not needed for feed
ing or bedding, and thus he prepar-
ed. Whether needed or not to pro-
tect the wheat, the straw will be OF
value by adding fertilizing material
as ton of straw is about equal to l
ton of barnyard manure for the plant
food contained. To be of greater
value to the wheat crop, the straw
should be fed or used as bedding for
stock, and the manure thus made
used as a top-dressing on wheat

Pritchett, Base Hospital No. 60, A.E.
F.. A. P. o. 7S0, France:
Mars-sur-Allier, France,
November 2S, 1918.
My dear Mother:
In commemoration of Thanksgiv-
ing Day, l am sure l can't celebrate
it better, than by writing you; also
when l consider what l was doing
about this time last year it sure gives
me a great incentive. Remember, l
was on my way home; arrived there
Unexpectedly. early Friday morning,
walked home; just as / got in the
house how it did rain. Though far
away tonight, l am very near home,
in thought, also 1 have many things
to be thankful for, though separated
this day, l have great hopes that
next year at this time will be home,
and all the mothers dear boys.
Well, we sure did have some nice
dinner today; all the turkey 1 could
eat, cake, apple, peas, everything
that goes to make good dinner. l
think all the boys in the A. E. F. ser
vice had the same; sure was good;
however, I hope the next will be at
the table where I was reared, or at
least in the States somewhere.
I think I told you in the last let
ter that the censorship was slightly
lifted; well, of course, there are
things yet which are not permissible,
but just one thing of interest in pass
ing: 1 have slept in barracks, which
were erected by Louis XIV. Napol-
con attended school in them; after
wards they were converted into mill
tary training posts, today they are
standing firm, that is one of the
great characteristics of the French;
you will find villages built centuries
ago, and though antique, they are
maintained yet; seems to be their
greatest pride-the home of their
forefathers-and they would die ra-
Their than be taken away; love for
home is their ideal.
Having rain here at present; have
had some fine weather. generally two
weeks of each, so when the bad
comes, we just look forward to the
good, and don't mind the other. Work
has grown somewhat lax since fight
ing ceased; that is, different kinds;
hope it will soon find itself gone en-
tirely, then we sure will go home.

week, if possible, whether 1 hear
from you or not, but hoping to hear

the same.
Well, the great victory is won at
last, and | am very, very glad of it.
l have travelled almost all over

times and some hardships, but, of

For A Clean Nation

The war has wrought many ire
mendous and far-reaching changes in
American character and American
thought 1t has been a great awaken
er to duty; not alone to the great
outstanding duties of raising billions
for the Allies, Of creating an army
out of nothing, of depriving oursel-
yes of food so that Europe might
not starve. These We're big duties,
unselfishly performed.
With the coming of peace there
has come, too, a realization OF the
smaller, but none the less important,
duties we owe ourselves. One OF the
greatest OF these is being pointed
out by the United States Public
Health Service, and backed UP by the
Secretary of the Treasury, the Sec
retaries of War and the Navy. 1t is
the duty OF clearing the Nation from
vice diseases, which war demonstrate
ed to us all were the prime causes of
ineficiency within the Nation.
Before the war it would hardly
have been possible for the newspa-
pers to discuss such a theme as ven
ereal disease; the narrow, short-sight
ed view was that such a subject was
shocking, immodest, disgusting, not
fit to be discussed The result has
been that ignorance of the extent to
which these venereal diseases were
menacing the Nation has allowed
them to thrive and multiply until,
when for the first time in our his
tory, millions of our young men were
forced to submit to expert medical
examination, the percentage OF men
found to be infected with one or the
other of these diseases was appalling.
1t was estimated that five-sixths
of all the venereal disease in the ar
my was brought there from civil
life
Such revelations as this add ter
rifle poignancy to President Wilson's
grave note of warning:
1T is not an army we have to make
fit; it is Nation"
To knew the truth about COM
municable diseases is to be able to
guard against them; to lessen them;
to control them. That has proved to
be true of tuberculosis, of measles, or
smallpox; of all the communicable
diseases.
So we must all come to realize
that the venereal diseases are highly
communicable. They are primarily
diseases of vice, spread mainly thru
prostitution, but they are also COM
municable by innocent means.
The United States Public Health
Service, under Surgeon General Ru-
pert Blue, is making a nationwide
fight for the cleanliness of American
communities. Prostitution is being
suppressed; laws requiring the re-
porting Of venereal disease. just as
ether communicable diseases are re-
ported, are icing passed by many
states. Clinics for the skilled treat
ment OF venereal diseases are being
established.
In this work, which has for its OBJ
ject a clean America, every citizen
must help in his single strength. The
false modesty which has prevented
free discussion of this menace to the
Nation must he brushed aside, so that
everyone may know and realize the
danger to be fought against.
Never again can we as individual
citizens be content with an attitude
of indifference toward such a sub
ject as this. The war has opened our
eyes; we must keep them open until
the danger is past.-Public Health
Service.
