3. Now is the time TO take ad-

This is simply a camouhage or
ganization to make it appear that
others than brewers and liquor deal

the Overwhelming majority. Of the
voters. Sixty-two per cent OF the
population voted for prohibition be-
fore the amendment was adopted.

cautionary practices are the only
measures that can be used TO remedy
this condition.
One of the cheapest and best
home made fly repellents is kero-
sene emulsion which is prepared by
dissolving one-half pound Of yellow
soap in a gallon Of soft. boiling wa
ter and adding two gallons Of kero-
sene. the whole to be stirred vigor-

with six gallons of water it is suf-
fcient to spray 100 cows. 1t is best
to spray each evening just before
milking by using a hand spray pump
or by applying the repellent by
means Of brush or sponge. Care
should be used in the application in
order that the milk does not be-
come tainted by absorbing the OBJ

PERSONAL LETTER
THIS CHRISTMAS STORY
Nv dear Readers:

My dear Readers:
! wish you to regard this little
Christmas story as personal letter.
It happened one cold, crisp Christ
mas Eve five years ago. l was stand
ing in front of a brilliantly lighted
toy store in a city not necessary to
name. Within was arranged in
splendid masses every type of toy to
gladden. the heart of childhood. Com
ing and going in eager, anxious haste
were mothers and fathers clad IN
stylish, as we'll as comfortable clothes,
their faces smiling because they knew
the Joy they were making ready for
the coming morrow. There were al
so little ones in that throng who
in their childish cunning knew full
we'll that many of those self same
TOYS would hang on their Christmas
trees, placed there by mysterious
Santa Claus, and they were glad:
But all seemed to fail or refuse
to see a poor, thinly clad mother,
whose face. showed that she had
! known brighter and better days
Clinging to her hand was little
girl of six, whose only Christmas Joy
would be the view of the toys which
tomorrow would be the actual posses
sion of thousands of happy children
I watched her for few minutes ant

(c) it seems entirely practicable to
make the influence of these associa-
tons sfelt Immediately and increas-
ingly as more counties become or
ganized and alive to the issue.
4th. The coordinating body which
skculd foster this movement in ev-
cry POSSIBLE way and which should
lie the representative body of the
county associations might be styled
the State Teachers Council, and it
should consist of representatives
fror. the county associations, possib-
ly numbering as many as that county
has representatives in the State
Legislature. The advantages of such
representative body which would
be backed by organized workers in
each county, are apparent. With
only so er cent. o. the counties
organized and represented it would
be an Influential organization. In
addition it appears reasonable that
such movement would prove tre.
mencous impetus to secure strong
county teachers associations and the
much needed, work of improving the
profession as to it's competency,
could be undertaken in tilese aSso-
Citations
5;h. The State Council would soon
and naturally displace and cause the
discontinuance of the State Teach
ers' Association, and while there may
be some sentimental regrets, such an
outcome appears to be entirely de-
sirable since the State Teachers
Association is an impossible propo-
sition as now organized from the
point of view of making it truly
representative body, and since some
of it's most valuable features may be
preserved and probably improved
upon by district organizations which
would provide for departmental meet
ings in special subjects, etc.

realized that this was only too true.
Presently man attired in his every
day workirr clothes modestly slipped
into the mothers hand crisp five
dollar bill with the request that she
spend it for the little o., S happiness.
l then and there discovered there is
no eloquerce on earth to compare
with tear drop glistening in a
mothers eye, placed there because of
gratitude.
Now, my dear friend, as this
Christmas season approaches there
are two hundred and fifty thousand
hungry, homeless and helpless or
phans, whose eyes are filled with tears
not tears for Christmas toys, but
tears for bread to satisfy the gnaw-
ing of hunger and to keep their
STAYED and emaciated bodies from
falling by the wayside and becoming
dry bones to mingle with the thous-
ands of others who have already
fallen. There is no father to hear
their cries because he has been kill
ed by the cruel Turk. Neither is
there any mother, nor will there be,
to wipe away their tears, for they
have been scattered into the noun
tains and deserts, in many cases
never to see their loved ones again.
Fifty thousand of these mothers are
unwilling victims in Turkish harems
where brand has been burned In
to their flesh and the threat of death
placed over their heads should they
escape. How many of these will
ever see their little ones again. God
only knows.
Now my friend, I call upon you to
assist in bringing Christmas to these
little ones. 1 call upon you in the
name of Him, who made Christmas
possible for US all and said, "Inas-
much as ye have done it unto one OF
the least of these We have done it un-
to me-" I call upon you whether you
recconize Him as the Christ or not.
l call upon you in the name of suffer
ing humanity. You may not see the
tear drop of gratitude come into
their eyes as I saw it come into that
mothers on that Christmas Eve, but
their gratitude to you will be far
greater and you shall not lose your
reward.
Simply fill out your check for
whatever amount your heart may
prompt, and forward the same to
