ENJOYING PLEASANT VISIT
WITH HIS SlSTEI

Private Christian p. Sorensen, who
volunteered his services in the u. S.
army in 1917 at Rupert, Idaho and
left Camp Lewis, Washington for ov-
erseas duty where he was with the
American Expeditionary Forces in
France for six months, and
served in Battery B, 346th Filed Ar
tillery, 91st division, known as the
wild West Division" received his
honorable discharge from service at
Camp Funston, Kansas last week and
arrived in Audubon Thursday even
ing for an extended visit with his sis
ter, Miss Kate Sorensen of the Sor-
ensen Art Studio. Private Soren-
sen arrived at Senacus, n. j., Janu-
airy 18th, where he was compelled to
enter the U. S. Embarkation Bospi
tai No. to recover from the effects
of influenza and pneumonia. From
there he was sent to Camp Funston,
Kansas, where he was mustered out.
Mr.. Sorensen was in several battles
at the front and on one occasion he
secured a German helmet, bayonet
and water bottle, which he brought
with him as souvenirs, which can be
seen at the Sorensen Studio. In con-
versation with Mr.. Sorensen he told
us he was glad to be able to serve
his country and real pleased to have
won and returned to America.

MAIL DELAY SCORED

CONGRESSMAN w. X. Green in a
speech made in the house last week
took the war department severely to
task for it's handling Of soldiers mail
and the furnishing OF information
about wounded men, says the Guth-
RE Center Times.
Judge Green said SO far as get
ting information about them went
the wounded might as well have
been dropped off the face of the
earth"
This matter with reference to
finding out something about the
wounded has passed the stage OF
protest." he continued. ut ought
to reach that of action. 1t is some
thing that cannot be expected or eX-
cused that the war department, with
several cables at its comand, cannot
find out anything with reference to
the wounded men.
Apparently, as far as the wound
ed men are concerned they might
just as well have been dropped off
the face of the earth, so far as the
department is able to tell where they
are or ascertaining about their con-
dition. We cannot find out any
thing. They tell us when they cable
in extreme cases, that it will be ten
days before we can get an answer.
I'VE can find out about the deco
rations of some woman's dress at the
functions that have been going on
over there in Europe on the very
next day. but we cannot find out any
thing at all about these wounded
men in less than ten days at best, ev-
en- if we find out anything at all, and
in 999 cases out of 1000 we do not
find out anything at all. The Bay
ard Bulletin.

DEEDS RATHER THAN WORDS

The habit of boasting is not a sign
Of merit. II is rather the reverse.
really brave man allows his deeds
to speak for him, and they always
will if they are great and strong
enough, remarks the Ohio State
Journal. These are great days for
boasting, for there is much to be
proud of. We are proud of our
country, of our sacrifices, of our pri-
vations, of our sorrows. but they are
apt to lose their merit Try our boast
ing about them. The testimony of
a worthy deed Is not expressed in
words but in a quiet and noble life.
We heard a man tell of heroic deed
in which he was the hero, but one
wouldn't know il from what he said.
and yet somehow in his very tone and
his praise for others one could easily
see whose was the honor of II. There
is one phase OF boasting which is
very distastefui, and that il the sort
which makes ourselves the greatest
people on earth or course We are,
but we don't know IL from what the
boosters say. We only know II by
hearing OF the acts of our heroes,
who are apt not 60 mention it at all.
We learn OF our own nobility by feel
ing IL in our hearts and not by read
ing I'm in the newspapers or hearing
the orators tell Il.

evening a reception at the X. +. Dud-
geon home, there being many of the
friends present to enjoy the occasion

ued prosperity and happiness in their

| PASSED. only too quickly. Mr.. and
Mrs. Baker were happily surprised

EROSION BULLETIN PUBLISHED

Iowa farmers who are confronted
with the problem of soil erosion will
be interested in a new bulletin just
issued by the Iowa agricultural ex-
pertinent station. All over the state
one of the big farm problems is to
prevent washing away of the hill
sides and fields over which water
moves freely.
This bulletin, No. 1873, contains de-
scriptions OF number of actual
methods in use today on Iowa farms,
with photographs and drawings illus
trating how prevention is practiced.
The bulletin is said to be the most
complete description OF erosion pre-
vention methods ever issued.
The summary of the bulletin and
the facts presented are as follows:
/. No particular method of pre-
venting or controlling erosion can
he recommended for all conditions.
Each land owner must select that
method which is best suited to the
conditions on his farm.
2. Preventive methods are better
than remedial ones. When erosion
first commences il should be attend
ed TO at once.
3. No method IS SO permanent
that it can be left to care for itself.
To q large extent the continued ef-
fic.ency OF any method is directly de-
pendent upon the attention gwen to
the installation
4 For medium sized and large
gulhes a carefully constructed earth
dam with surface inlet, known as
the Christopher or Dickey dam, is the
least expensive method and the most
generally applicable to Iowa copdj-
tons.
IS. No matter what type OF dam Is
used. a surface inlet should be pro-
vided TO remove the water from
above the dam This will do away
with a great deal of the difficulty en-
countered in the use of dams.
6. A proper foundation is es-
scntial in the construction OF any
type OF dam. More difficulty is ex-
perienced because OF neglect or this
precautiou than for any other reas-
on.
z. A quilted farm is the sign OF
inefficiency, as the farmers In all
parts of the state who are systemat-
ically attempting the control OF eros
ion are succeeding
g. Erosion can be controlled and
il is to the interest of every farmer
TO prevent or control any erosion on
his farm.

INFLUENCE OF GOOD BOOKS

When you find a child that loves
good books, the noxious weeds of en-
Wy, hatred, jealousy and malice are
not so likely to grow in his mind and
choke out the exquisite blossoms of
love, tenderness, unselfishness, graft
tude and the desire to do unto others
as he would be done by. The love of
good books is one foundation for
good character, observes a writer in
the Oklahoman. 1t is the exception,
not the rule, to encounter sordidness,
greed or insensibility in the man or
woman who knows and loves good
books. Robert Louis Stevenson once
said that 80 long as a man had a
friend he had something to live for.
Is it not true so long as one can love
good and beautiful book that life
never will be without hope?

COLD WEATHER THIS
YEAR IN FLORIDA

People visiting In Florida this
year are having a decidedly awful
time OF x. The weather has been
SO cold and rainy that II has been
almost impossible TO go anywhere in
comfort. Instead of lounging on
the beaches In scanty bathing suits.
the people have been wearing rain
coats most OF the time. The men
no went down there for fishing are
roaring because ii is too cold and wet
even for the FISH To bite. Persons
taking cars down there have used
them but little. Word from st.
Petersburg and Palm Beach show that
the situation on the Atlantic coast is
as bad as that on the west. or gulf
coast
