BIGGEST IRISH DAY
IN D. C., SAYS MORAN
Sees Universal Support for Erin al
Liberty Hut.

According to Patrick T. Moran. the
mass meeting at Liberty Hut st. Pat
rick's Day was the biggest demonstra-
ton that. Irish-Americans have ever
given in this section.
The cosmopolitan character of the
audience. which applauded the words
of former Senator Bailey, Hannis Tay-
lor and others, championing the cause
of Ireland, showed, said Moran. the
universal opinion that the Emerald
Isle should receive independence.
On the stand at Liberty Hut were
Catholic priests, Protestant ministers
and Jewish rabbis.

Vacation Hints

On trampfng trips and picnics a
few soda fountain straws will very
nicely take the place of the drink
ing cup. Many times it is impQssi-
Bile to procure cup of clear water
without stirring up the sediment in
a brook. A straw will not disturb
the water, will reach down to the
clear water underneath the top,
which may be leaf-covered, and
is easily carried.
When you are going camping,
don't fail to take with you an ashes
tos rooster. This is made from q
square of asbestos cloth or paper
and is cone-shaped. 1t is really in
dispensable for roasting potatoes,
apples, corn on the ear, etc. The food
of the cone is inserted in the camp
fire. Two stones will easily hold it
in place. Do not stand it upright,
but leave it on it's side with the
apex of the cone toward the fire.
The use of this rooster will pro-
duce roasted camp favoriteS with
great deal more of palatableness
than otherwise.
You will need matches and the
sort that are immune to dampness.
Dip the sulphur ends of them into
melted paraffin. They will burn
even in the rain this way, for the
wax runs down and keeps them from
going out.
Salt water should not be allowed
to reach the hair when bathing A
rubber cap is not sufficient. Cut a
long strip of chamois about five in
ches wide. Wind this all about the
head and then wear the rubber cap
over it.
To prevent water from getting
into the ears when bathing, rub a
bit of cocoa butter upon lambs
wool and place in the ears to keep
out the water. The lambs wool
is not absorbent and one can easily
hear through it. Cotton is worse
than nothing at all, for it holds
the water in the ear once it has
become wet.

membrance of that dread, and of the
dear Lords gracious kindness in pro-
tecting my eyesight,s never look out
at the landscape, with the charming
green of the heritage and the gold of
the beautiful sunshine, without be-
ing thankful that 1 can still see the
glories of earth and sky all about
me.
Aged people often lose their eye
sight as they grow stiff and slow
in movements, but nobody knows
what the blind must suffer who has
never felt what total blindness means
to those who can only hear and can
never see any more.
When the Lord blessed Abraham
and his seed after him because
Abraham feared God and kept His
commandments-we have a lesson in
righteousness that we should study
very deeply. Abraham like his
nephew, Lot, was a great man in his
day. The elder man chose the way
of the Lord and Lot chose the way
of the world. The children of Abra-
ham were blessed and the children of
Lot suffered. We should be extreme
ly thankful for good homes, good
counsel, good example to follow and
sound ideas on moral issueS-and the
child that is trained in the way he
should go by good and sensible par
ents enjoys a blessing that is over
Whelming in its size and value-and
beyond all price.
We all know that a child that is
born into clean home with sober
parentage, with the good health that
goes with sobriety and clean living
has a thousand times better chance
to make good citizen and good
home-maker than the poor unWel-
come child that is spawned in slum
districts and never knows what a
comfortable staying place stands for
in food or clothing or lodging.
Oh! how "all the benefits" of the
Almighty Father will loom up be-
fore our minds if we only take the
time to think about them or seek
to appreciate them!
Remember thy Creator, and mag
nifty His goodness, and give thanks
for all His benefits!

MRs.FEITONS TALKS
CONDUCTED BY
fgRs WI. FELTON,
a SUNDAY SCHOOL PICNIC AT
HATTyS STATION

On Saturday. August Is, 1 took the
railroad train and went to the Sun
day school picnic at Halls in the
upper part of Barlow county. Those
good people in and around Halls set
apart one day in the midsummer OF
each year to assemble at the charch
nave religious exercises, with sing
Ing, and carry "a fine basket dinner,
and make a good day Of it.
This year [ was cordially invited
and surely did enjoy the day with
them. Several speakers were invited
put 1T was drtZzly morning, and l
was the only outsider that made the
trip, and they gave me a welcome, to
be sure. l did my little best to en-
terrain them. When my time came
around, it made me happy to witness
their happiness and good cheer. The
could expect from such good farm
homes around in that vicinity. Every
thing of splendid farm produce was
available and the dear women pre-
pared the food beautifully. I feel
? sure that as much as one-half Of the
picnic viands were left over, and the
crowd was fine one. Some of the
soldier boys were lust getting back
from France and elsewhere, and we
all reJo1ced to see them. 1t was good
to be there.
What Should We BE Most Thankful
EOTE
The saddeSt things I think I ever
saw were an insane person of adult
age, or a poor child born without
mind. Perhaps you have seen both
OF such unhappy classes. in the
last few years it has so happened
that L have seen the mental decay of
several aged women and they were
carried to insane asylums. I think
the loss of mind-and the unhappi-
ness of crazy peoples one of the
greatest misfortunes that can hap
pen to any of the human family
because insane" fancies or griefs or
reVenges are incurable things--as in
sanity is often an fncurable disease,
or the result of incurable disease.
A little child born an idiot and
doomed to what befalls a human form
with no mind, is perhaps the most
pftiful and irremedial of all depriva-
tons and losses. Not that they have
personal suffering or appreciate what
they do not long for and can never
enjoy, but because they are objects
of commiseration to all about them
and the longer they live the more
irremedial their loss becomes to those
who care for them. [ think, there
fore, we. may say that a sound mind
is the greatest of "aIl our benefits, -
the reatest of earthly benefits.
a few years ago my vision became
in manner clouded. The dread of
blindness came over me. l prayed
God to spare my eyesight-the priv
