The Noted Poctcss Almost Writes
About the Telegraph.

Ellabelle Mae DooIttle, the noted
poetess or Delhi, loves to write rhymes
about things that she doesn't quite
understand.
"They always interest me-" she
states. land interest in something
means mind pleasure which wards off
insanity"
The other day the poetess went to
the b. l. & F. railroad station to find
out if the Pollywog was later than
usual. After getting the desired in
formation from Agent Podge Bing,
she was attracted by the sound of the
telegraph instruments. The sounder
began to go "clickety and the
agent asked to be excused a moment
Go right along, Podge." said Miss
Doolittle, sweetly. DUTY is calling, l
imagine"
Podge went to the instruments and
jOtted something down on a paper.
1t was merely a message for the sec
ton boss but it started Miss Doolttle
to dreaming There she stood listen
ing. suddenly she turned and went
out.
Ihe Women'S Betterment League,
of which the poetess is a member, met
that afternoon in Hugus hall and
among those who attended was Miss
Doolltte. She was gowned in pink
shebang rice-cloth with a short skirt
trimmed with imitation wild straw
berry blossoms, and a waist of real
goolash gngham. She was immedi-
ately surrounded by admiring mem
bers who examined her dress for
price-marks. Promptress Pertle took
the rostrum and called the meeting
to order. 49,.

NAUGHTY CHILDREN

A morbid exaggeration and perver-
sion of the natural desire which all
children feel for notice by their elders
is held by Thompson to be the cause
of abnormal naughtiness in children,
These cases are of essentially the same
nature as those of moral imbecility"
in children who are in some degree
mentally defective. The pronec lines
of treatment are clear enough. and
when carried out consistently and thor
oughly are rapidly and completely
successful. They may be summarized
as follows: % All severe corporal
punishment must be stopped--it never
does any good CD Nobody must ever
appear shocked. amused or even sur
prised at anything a child does; (3)
His misdeeds are never to be 9llEded
to, much less described, in his pres
ence; and, lastly, he should be noticed
and encouraged in every way when
he is good and altogether ignored
when he is naughty.

GREAT ADDRESSES EXPECTED.

There will soon be a series of very
interesting addresses throughout the
nation, for President Wilson intends
to swing around the country to create
public sentiment for ratification of
the league of nations covenant by the
senate. Unless the provisions, when
submitted, prove more satisfactory to
the senate than at present indicated,
there will be able senators touring the
country to tell the people of reasons
for not approving. Both sides should
be welcome by the Same audiences,
for whether the matter is discussed
from partisan standpoint or not, the
addresses VII be informatory.
1t Is announced that Senator Borah,
Senator Fall and Senator Reed are
among half-dozen already scheduled
for addresses in the west.

the same nutTiment.
Similarly with many people who
used to have meat two or three times
a day. but have learned that they are
as we'll off to eat less meat and more
vegetables,
The people have learned to study
newspaper advertising more carefully
and get the advantage Of special sea-
sonal and other bargains. While the
advance in living costs has been a
very trying experience. a wise and
thrifty family can dodge it in part.
There is no need of having a family
budget increase by the full amount
that a statistical comparison of fixed
articles shows.

CALIFORNIA; RICE INDUSTRY


The rice industry of the state, al
ready rapidly increasing, was greatly
stimulated by the war demand for
breadstuffs, and the crop now being
marketed is much the largest which
the state has produced. There have
been steady shipments ever since
milling of the crop began, and yet a
recent estimate, apparently authori-
tatiVe, places the rice still remaining
in the state at $4,000 bags of about
100 pounds. At the stabilized price of
$4.32 per 100 pounds for the paddy,
or unmilled rice. which is being main
tanned, the value of our remaining
rice is around SIS 900. 900. This large
value, however, is due to the high
price, the pre-war price ranging be-
tween $3.50 and 50 per bag.
The early settlers of the state re-
garded the Sacramento delta as GER
tain to become great rice growing dis
trict. This was not because they kew
anything about growing rice, but be-
cause they associated : rice with
swamps, and there was the swamp,
Several experiments were made. one
by the University of California. but
nothing came of them, because they
did not know how to go to work. Our
rice lands are not the lands which
our pioneers pitched on as the scene
of our future rice industry.
The lands which we IN this state
find especially fitted for rice growing
are not those of deep alluvial OF peaty

over the assemblage. The married

not dare speak up. Gradually the
beauty of the rhyme permeated the

applauded with great gusto.

RAILROAD PUBLICITY.

| For many years the railroads spent
lot of money in printing timetables
in the newspapers. The public APP
preciated the service. 1t made it easy
| to look up arrival time of trains, and
departures.
Some years ago this practice was
| largely discontinued. But the roads,
up to the time of government opera
ton, continued to use a lot Of adver-
Using for trips to summer resorts
and travel tours generally
! 1t is claimed that the cutting out
of advertising is one of the ways in
which the roads saved money under
government control. If this was de-
! termined upon as one of the features
of government operating policy, it did
not increase net earnings.
Railroad advertising as formerly
used, made travel seem very attrac-
tive The cuts of distant scenes, and
of mountain and seashore resort life,
stirred peoples wanderlust They
longed to see noted points of interest
and become better acquainted with all
sections of the great land. The pub
licity largely stimulated travel Ad-
vertising would never have been in
serted unless traffic managers saw a
profit in it. Their long experience
made them know what would pay.
If concern that had been using
advertising largely should go into new
hands and the new management
should cut out a large part or most
of the publicity, any good business
man would say that its revenues
would suffer. The money now being
expended for publicity by the railroad
administration is but a very small
fraction of the amounts that used to
be spent under private ownership.
This may have something to do with
the startling deficit the railroads are
now showing.

INTERCHURCH WORLD MOVE
MENT

From April 30 to May 2 CLEVELAND
was the objective of a group of public
spirited men, who seemed to be sur
prised at their very numbers. fThey
were all with one accord in one place
They had learned the lesson of the
war. They had gone 'over the top" in
many patriotic drive. They We're
afraid of nothing. They realized that
a combination of forces with COM
mon purpose and an uncommon leader
could do things in the higher life new
err tried before.
Last December conference of mis-
sionary boards of many religious
bodies, called together by DR.. Vance
of Nashville, met to discover whether
they could work together. They We're
surprised at the simplicity of the
problem. They at once adopted the
policy of the allies of a year ago.
Then in swift succession other religi-
GUS groups came together and the
Interchurch World Movement was
formed with DR.. S. Earl Taylor, who
perhaps, was first to see the farflung
sweep of the idea, as the animating
spirit and director. Quietly. tentative
ly the experiment was tried out, and
group of experts was made up
pledged to religious progress without
competition.
They established a definite policy.
They invited the churches of North
America to unite for purposes of CO.
operation, not consolidation, or eccle-
siastical unity on which cooperative
enterprises usually break. More than
40 are already in and others are on
the way. Not merely was no church
asked to make concessions. but there
was tacit agreement to strengthen
group convictions. The one objective
was to combine in common services
a gainst evil and waste. so as to put
new meaning into those lines,

Come listen. o Love. to the voice of

Come hearken, and hear him say,

This day in purple is rolled.
And the baby stars of the milky way
They are Graded IN cradles of gold.
Now what IS the secret, serene gray
dove,
OF singing so sweetly always?
There are many Tomorrows, my love,

SALVAGE PARTIES WILL WORK.

When the fires of war have cooled
down somewhat. salvage parties to
hunt for scuttled treasure will doubt
less begin to be active. One of the
places to hunt for vanished gold will
doubtless be North Keeling island,
where the Emden was beached when
the sydney ended the German raiders
spectacular career. One of the EN-
denis crew, as recorded in a book en-
titled, stories of the Ships" has con-
fessed that when the raider was
beached 10000 gold sovereigns, part
of the spoils from captured English
merchant ships. were swept from her
docks into the sea. The coral reef
where the Emden was stranded may
vet give up this treasure.

Copper prices are rising slowly and
there is great rejoicing in camps. The
increase from is to above II cents a
pound has made employers begin to
take on more men, and mining stocks
to move on the market. In the cop

vested earnings IN stocks have had
to borrow money on them or sell the
securities. The big copper companies
generally had to borrow funds while

MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED
"GOD is MARCHING ON"

According to Grecian mythology,
from which we get so many illustra-
tions of life today. sisyphus, king
of Corinth, was doomed. in the realm
Of shades, to forever roll a stone to
the top of a hill only to see it roll
back TO the bottom from where he
started it.
Always with us are the pessomists
who believe that mankind is mod
ern Sisyphus, doomed to roll the stone
of civilization to the top of the hill,
only to see il roll back into the dark
ness Of the valley Such people be-
lieve that there are cycles which
mari, the rise and fall of mans civil
l2aton.
During the great war, and even
since its conclusion, it is not uncom-
mon TO meet these croakers. these
people who have read history super
ficially, who understand mankind
wrongly
During the past five years it has
seemed to many serious minded peo-
pie that the moral foundations of the
world were upheaving; that the bonds
of faith that once bound nations to-
gether were dissolving into faithless-
ness: that we were reverting to the
days when every member of the hu-
man race stood in habitual fear of
violence, and that civilization might
again be compelled to build up by
slow and painful degrees those safe
defenses once thought to be perma-
nent.
But when we think it over we know
that truth is the same today that 1t
was when Moses handed down the
decalogue written by the finger of God
on the tablets of stone, and it lis "a
wholesome and steadying fact for us
to contemplate that the command
ments, thou shalt not kill. thou shalt
not steal, thou shalt not covet. were
not originally written on u scrap Of
paper.
The trend of human efforts have
ever been upward. Robert Louis
Stevenson, writing of the mystery of
man, sad:
1--WE find in man one thought,
strange to the point of lunacy the
thought of duty the thought of owing
something to himself to his neigh
Dor, to his God; an ideal of deceney,
to which he would rise, if it We're
possible; a limit TO shame, below
which, if it We're possible, he would
not fall"
But the progress of the world has
been maintained, when it has not
slipped backward a bit, by the con-
slant vigilance of those who believed
in the best, hoped for the best, fought
for the best.
The world is sure to move forward
and upward, but there must be
brought to bear upon the problems of
the present day all the organized in
telligence of which civilized man is
capable.
There are about fifteen hundred
million people upon the earth. most
of them dissatisfied with the lives
they live. Hundreds of millions of
them have been dumb. but now they
are talking and telling the things they
believe they want.
The man who imagines things are
going to be as they were before the
war upheaved things. is due for a
rude awakening. But God is march,
ing on"

BIRTH DECREASE
W0RR|ESFRANCE
But Half As Many Births in 1915 As
Compared With the Number in
1911 in the Paris District OF the
Seine, in France

PARIS, Sept. 16.-France's de-
clining birthrate has lately been q
source of much concern but dis
tinct improvement has been noticed
during the present month.
Evidence of great decline in
births in 1918 was shown in official
figures for the district of the Seine,
which includes the city of Paris,
which showed that there are only
43,4S0 births registered in that dis
trict in 1918 as compared to the 3d.
500 in 1911.
The infantile death rate given by
statisticians is 40 percent as COM
pared to ten percent before the war
This has been attributed to the
scarcity of wet nurses and poor
quality and shortage of milk for
bottle fed babies. This shortage is
said to be due to the tremendous in
crease in cheese making, especially
in Normandy.
however, all the maternity hoSpl-
tails in Paris reported increased
births thus far in the present month.
In one hospital the number has
doubled those of last year and it is
declared that babies are remarkable
for size, weight and general health.
A new periodical entitled Marriage
has just appeared. 1t announces that
it will devote itself to the question
of the repopulation of France which
is generally recognized to be one of
the most urgent problems of the day.

should be adopted to combat the pre-
sent matrimonial crisis in France?"
