GREENFIELD

Albert Benz is suffering from an
attack of neuritis.
The farmers are very busy since
the storm, putting in their grain.
The Huntington family are all sick
with hard colds.
The Maple Valley social club met
at the home of Mrs. A. r. Attridge on
Thursday. After the usual exercises
and business, the following Easter
program was enjoyed by all: Mrs.
Chas. Wing read an Easter poem;
Mrs. c. w. Wichern gave several Sc
lections on the piano; reading on
Easter by Mrs. Archie Cook and
paper by Mrs. Montgomery Her sub
ject. was Our Society and Mission"
and she said:
"In the spring of 1900, the Maple
Valley Sunday-school was reorgani-
zed. AS there was no organ for the
school we soon formed plans to get
one. The young people did nobly by
sociables and hastened the desired end.
Some of the ladies got together and
talked up the plan of starting a
Ladies Aid. 1t was decided to meet
at the home of Mrs. Montgomery and
complete their arrangements. On
the 10 of April a few, yes very few.
responded to the CALL There was one
thing noticeable about this first meet
ing, most every one there got into
office, which was: President Mrs. W.
Montgomery; Vice president, Mrs
Chas. Wing; secretary, Miss Kate Kel
logg: treasurer, Mrs. L. H. Palmer:
work director, Mrs. L. A. Johnson;
assistant, Miss Ellen Johnson. These
with Miss Mary Kellogg were the
charter members.
"As every infant industry has to have
, name, so had ours. After some
deliberation it was decided TO call it
the Maple Valley sewing society,
which has been changed to the Maple
, Valley social club.
"Our plan of q suppose the
politician would call it PLATFORM was
to meet every three weeks, at the
different homes, by invitation and
| have picnic meal, by paying sc. TO
make different articles to sell; also 20
sew for others, when asked to do so.
| AS we felt very small and weak, both
/ in numbers and finance, we charged
! sc for those who came and did not
work for the society. AS our numbers
increased and we extended our bor-
| ders. we were able to drop the charge
, of the mite from those who did not
work.
"Our mission is to do good in every
way that we can. So long ago the
organ was bought and paid for, al
I though we do not take so much credit
for it. We have tried to improve the
OPPORTUNITIES for good as they came

LATTER DAY SENSE

Once it was the proper thing
In the shaping of their lives,
For the men to have a string
Of assorted kinds of wives.

So jealous law DEGREES,

navy aboard the Ar iona. The vessel
left recently from Cuba to accompany
the George Washington on its return
trip.
A Sailors PRAYER
Now l lay me down TO sleep,
/ pray the lord my soul to keep;
Grant no other sailor take
NV shoes and socks before l wake
Lord, guard me in my slum Der
May no clews or lashings break
And let me down before | wake.
Keep me safely in thy sight
And grant no fire drill tonight;
And in the morning let me wake
Breathing scents of sirloin steak;
God protect me in my Dreams
Grant the time may swiftly fly
When myself shall rest on high,
In a snowy feather bed
Where / long to rest my head.
Far away from all these scenes,
From the smell of half done beans.
Take me back into the land
Where they don't scrub down with
sand;
Where no demon typhoon blows,
Where the women wash the clothes!
God, Thou knowest all my woes,
Feed me in my dying throes;
Take me back, I'll promise then
Never to leave home again.
Three Years Later
Our father who art in Washington.
Please, dear father, let me stay;
Do not drive me now away.
Wipe away my scalding tears,
And let me stay my thirty years.
Please forgive me all my past
And things that happen at the mast>
Do not my request refuse
Let me stay another cruise.

GOES BACK TO ANCIENT DAYS
Expression Concerning Fires of Faith and the Torch of Religion Traced
 to Fire Worshipers.

"N1y faith is like a burning flame" being sorely tried. "I may carry the torch of the true religion forward'' is ar expression so often used that 1t seems almost trite. Is it an accident that many of the most fervent religious phrases are connected in one way or another with the fire-image?
 One of the curious customs of Lithu- ania gives a clew to the answer to this question. Religion and faith are expressed in fiery terms because most of our ancestors were fire worshipers.
 The tradition has outlived pagan and remains most plainly evident in the language we use when talking of religion.
 In Lithuania family councils are held only in front of the hearth. All impor- tant gatherings are connected with the fireplace. The fire is never allowed to die out. It is the duty of the old est woman in the family to tend to the fire to cover it with ashes at night and to revive it in the morning.
 Why the oldest woman rather than the oldest man? Because in pagan days the attendants of the sacred fires were always women, the vestal vir- gins, whose lives were devoted to that one task.
 When we speak of the fires of faith, therefore, or of the torch of religion, we are marking back to the ancient days, the days when fire was faith and religion torch. .,svpsm

MEXICAN BANDITS
 CAUGHT IN STORM
And Troop K, Eighth Cavalry, Made a Cleanup. Recovering Stolen Horses and Cattle, Returning All
 to American Side.

Maria, Tex, April Swallowing 8 raid across the Rio Grande during a blinding hail storm by Mexican ban dits last night, Trook K, Eighth Cav airy, in command of Captain Matlick, overlook and killed five of the bandits, recovered the horses and cattle stolen, and returned to the American side, according to an official report re- ceived by Colonel George T. Lang horn, at district headquarters here late today.
 The report of the Mexicans cross ing the river was received at mid night last night during the most se- we're hail storm in the history of the Big Bend. The bandits were report ed to have crossed to the American side between Ruidosa and Candelaria. on tbe river front. They stole cattle and horses and drove them back across the river under cover of dark ness and the storm.
 Troop K, in command of Captain Matlick, and Troop M, commanded by Captain Broadhead, were ordered to the scene of the raid and by day break Troop L had moved into sup port positions from Indio. Infantry attachments were moved by wagon train and trucks to occupy the sta tions left vacant by the cavalry troops forming the pursuit.
 The tracks of the raiders and stolen cattle were followed to the river bank where they could be plainly seen on the Mexican side.
 Troop K, under Captain Matlick, followed one band while Captain Broadhead, commanding Troop M, pursued the other, Troop K overtak- ing the bandits and killing five of them before they could hide in the canyons. The cavalry recovered their horses and cattle stolen after the ex- act number of stolen animals had been verified. All the troops returned to the Texas side without casualty.
 The raid was the eighth successful pursuit into Mexico by the Eighth cavalry since it came to the Big Bend, and will probably be it's last, as the regiment will leave next week for Fort Bliss.

IMMORTALITY.


 Dr. l.. W. B. Long pastor of the First NJ. k. church, as previously an- ncunced, preached Sunday on "Immor- tslity." The text was "If man die, shail he live again ?"--Job, 14:14. Following are a few of the more vital sentences:
 The thought chases the mind. The question has always so obscessed the human intellect that reason forces the conclusion that it is susceptible of, and IS answerable."
 "f belief in immortality should be obliterated recitude would have no goal; mankind would be without stim. ulus, and there would come in the course of time physical, moral and in- tellectuaI collapse
 There can be no greater subject than is presented by the question of the text"
 "Art, science. literature are eclipsed by the topic.
 Answer the question negatively and from the hand of art fall brush mallet and chisel; science closes the laboratory, literature loses it's inspira. ton and is skeletonized. We are left without impetus, the incentive is gone for at the end of short existence is annihilation. Affections are tortured and your sweetest dreams and fondest hopes are wrecked.

There is potency in fact, tho it may be unsolved. There is potency in the fact of the Armament, but who will solve the problem.
 Whence cometh amenability by which human action is influenced?
 Whence cometh moral nature :? How did it originate by which l chose to do right or wrong?"
 What is right?
 "What is wrong?
 sNo explanation can be made other than that moral nature is corollary with immortality. It is the conse- tuence- There is weighty evidence, tho 1t might be properly termed col lateral or circumstantial, in the fact of universal belief in the immortality 0f the soul. All peoples of every time and every cline have So believed. Strong evidence is to be gathered from personality"
 T can not think that body, aging stricken, smitten dead is all there is to me.
 The thought is repellant that all there is to me ends with the tomb.
