Prospects were never better for q
bumper crop in this section Of Ramsey

It from being above the average yield.

good to the late flax. Late crops are
not suffering any yet. however. and
the only thing that the farmers fear
Is a season Of hot winds. The season

Velocity of LiQht.

The velocity of light was obtained
by the Danish astronomer Roemer in
1916, by observing the eclipses of Jupi
ter's moons When the earth was
nearest to Jupiter, the eclipse ap-
peared about eight and one-half min.
utes too soon for the calculations, and
when the earth was most remote from
Jupiter, they were about eight and one
half minutes too late. ROemer conclud-
ed the reason to be that it required IL
minutes for light from the planet to
traverse the diameter of the earth's
orbit, which measured the difference
of the distances of the earth from
Jupiter. This calculation has since
been verified, and proves that light
travels about $4,000 miles second.

RIob+ Idea About gusiness.

The old idea that business is get
ting the better of your neighbor is not
only bad business" but nonsense.
Business is not getting the better of
but doing the best for your neighbor
and yourself. If business is not mu-
tually profitable, it lis mutually de-
structive. My neighbours prosperity
helps mine and mine his. When that
old pernicious notion is finally explod-
ed the millennium of business will be
at hand, the era of universal peace
between capital and labor.-Lord Lev

Good Ends Require Good Means.

Let no man turn aside, ever SO

All good ends can be worked out by

bad; and may be counted so at once,
and left alone.-Charles Dickens In

They Are Your Neighbors

These folks are your neighbors. They
work for the telephone company. They
are regular people, just like you, your
friends and family.
They eat food; wear clothes, live in
houses, talk, laugh, sing cry, get peev-
ish (and get over it), enjoy the movies
and homemade pies, just like you.
These folks are trying hard to give you
the best telephone service in the world.
They take pride in their work and in their
company; but, sometimes, when they
hear you complaining about paying few
dollars year for telephone service they
become worried and wonder how they
are going to make ends meet-for they
know their wages depend on what you
pay for your telephone.
Sometimes some of you forget that the
telephone company is made up of folks
who are Just like you.
The more loyal support you give the
telephone the better service it can give
you.

LONG LEGS"

One of the funniest of all the hu-
morous things with which Mary Pick
ford's new and best feature, Daddy
Long Legs" which will be seen at
the Alcazar theatre on Tuesday and
Wednesday is loaded in series of
scenes in which Mary, as Judy Abb
bott, takes too much hard cider.
The funny little drunk is not
indulged in by Judy Abbott, the or
pllan child Miss Pickford plays, with
malice aforethought. 1t happens
that she and a funny little orphan
with a very freckled face have just
lead a "prune strike in which they
have sought to obtain better food for
the children of the asylum, who are
fed on thin soup and prunes.
The tryannical head matron has
won the battle, being large wom-
an able to dominate the covering lit
tie waits who are charges of the in
stitution, and to punish Judy, and
the little boy who aided her in en-
couraging the children to strike, the
matron puts them out in the YARD
with nothing to eat. A thief who has
been stealing from passing wagor
throws over the fence jug of hare
cider, and some sandwiches.
Judy and the boy have been pray
ing for food. They think this drop
ped from Heaven, and proceed to ea
and drink without inquiring into thu
nature of the donation. So it hap
pens that in the most innocent wa!
both children become "happy." Mis-
Pickford's portrayal of the surprised
Judy, who Furnishes her enemies
gives jam to all the children and de
fies the ogre of matron is wonder
fully done.
1t is only one of the masterfu
'bits" she does in this picture whicl
| carries Judy, the orphan from he
birth to her marriage to rich maj
who sends her to college.
