Hard to Find.

Amusement was caused in the ele-

by repeated inquiries from Western
Union messenger boy who was trying
to find out where in that building the
Evans WoOlen Press was located.
After riding up and down several
times and being directed to several
rooms in the building, the boy was
shown the office of the trust company,
where he delivered the telegram to

Terracing Is the most effective meth

two distinct types OF terraces-the
bench terrace and the ridge terrace.
A field of bench terraces resembles a
series of benches or a flight of steps.
Ridge terraces, as the name implies,
are simply ridges of earth thrown up
across the slopes of hillsides.
OF the two types the bench terrace
is much the older. The ridge terrace
has come into general use only during
the last % years. Bench terraces for
agricultural purposes were used by
the ancients of Europe. Asia and South
America. The ancient Peruvians In

Too many accidentals spoil the
melody. It's true they may keep you
guessing. out they also keep you un-
settled. And again it is the same with
life. Men Of judgment treat acciden-
tails for what they are worth. But
they aim to keep life to its regular
course. Some lives are ruined by a
love for. the exceptional. They seem
to be unable to follow the necessary
routine Of life. So the wise man aims
to keep life sweet and normal, know
ing that he best serves himself and
his fellowmen by meeting daily needs
